Lansing Professional Fleet Auto Repair Shop is a Nationwide NAPA Auto Care Center with highly trained & skilled 15th Year ASE Nationwide Certified Automotive Repair Technicians
that have provided automotive repair & commercial fleet repair to the Lansing community since 2001.

No matter what your service needs are, domestic or import give us a call, we can repair every vehicle you own or drive!

We believe our quality of work, honesty and integrity over the years speaks for itself. After all many repair shops and dealerships have come and gone from the Lansing area. We plan on being here many more years to stand behind and guarantee our repairs should the need arise.

In addition none of my employees are on any type of commission based salary. What does this mean to you?

It means we are not financially motivated to sell you something you don’t need just to make a paycheck, 99% of all other car repair shops pay commission based salaries which means they have to sell you extra repairs to get paid.

Auto repair services include:

Our Auto Repair Philosophy

We understand that if you are without your vehicle it is not only an inconvenience but also it is costing you time and money!

How many times have you taken your vehicle to 3 different auto repair shops to be diagnosed and received 3 different repair estimates for completely different repairs on your vehicle?

Sadly this happens every day in Lansing. The reason is there are very few mechanics who have the experience and training to correctly identify the exact cause of many issues resulting in misdiagnosed parts swapping.

Many mechanics will find nothing at all, even more will replace parts that are not even worn out or causing the problem you brought the vehicle in for in the first place. They over sell and replace parts that were not even faulty all the time. These repair shops and auto repair shop owners have the gull to charge you knowing your vehicle is not fixed!

We are so confident in our diagnostic capabilities that we guarantee our repairs or you don’t pay!

If you have not been to our automotive repair shop stop by or give us a call and see what you and your family have been missing. Your vehicle will be repaired right the first time, for a fair price, with quality parts, the same day, with a minimum 1 year parts and labor warranty.

We will earn your auto repair business each & every time you visit. We appreciate all of your testimonials, recommendations, referrals, Google Reviews , & your continued support.

We are located in downtown Lansing, MI at 615 E. Kalamazoo St., on the corner of Kalamazoo St. & Larch St. next to Valvoline oil change, & across from Wendy’s Restaurant not far from MSU or East Lansing.

PFS Auto Care has proudly repaired over 25,000 vehicles from the following areas: Charlotte, Dewitt, Dimondale, East Lansing, Eaton Rapids, Grand Ledge, Haslett, Holt, Lansing, Mason, Okemos, Perry, Portland, Potterville, Waverly, and Williamston.

• Tune-up Professionals, Spark Plugs, Distributer Cap, Ignition Coil, Air, Fuel, Cabin Filters | Lansing, East Lansing, Downtown Lansing … Read More
  The term *tune up* was coined back when Henry Ford was working on his first prototype for the automobile. This first ignition system was very simple; one ignition coil for one *spark plug*, so if there were four *spark plugs* there would be four *ignition coils*. The coil needed to be adjusted to provide the same spark intensity for better idle and acceleration. As these *ignition coils* worked they made a buzzing sound so when they were adjusted properly they all buzzed the same; they were in tune. That's how the term tuneup was coined. This term stuck and was....Read Even More

• Brake Fluid Flush | Lansing, East Lansing, Downtown Lansing … Read More
  There is an increasing awareness of the dangers of water and corrosion producing contaminants. Brake fluid contaminated by moisture dangerously lowers the boiling point of the fluid to the point that, even under ordinary conditions, your brakes could get hot enough to cause the brake fluid to boil causing vapor to form in the brake system. The vapor is compressible, causing a low or no brake pedal. Water gets into the fluid because conventional brake fluid is hygrosconic (it has a magnetic attraction for moisture which it absorbs from the atmosphere). In the vehicle, moisture is absorbed through the brake....Read Even More

  A wheel alignment consists, in its most basic form, an adjustment of the angles of the wheels on your vehicle so that they are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other.

• Replace Radiator & Heater Hoses | Lansing, East Lansing, Downtown Lansing … Read More

After all do you want to wait until your in a huge hurry or an hour away from home to find out they....Read Even More
