Murphy's Autocare is a trustworthy mechanic that I would recommend to anyone looking to get their car fixed. I just moved to Dayton, Ohio last year and my brake light switch went out. I searched the web to find a mechanic with good reviews and with all of the raving reviews for Murphy's, I decided to take my car in to get worked on. Now, about 10 months later the same problem has come up again. I called Murphy's and they told me that they have a 3 year warranty on their parts and services and told me to take my car in for them to inspect. With no additional charge, they went above and beyond to make sure there wasn't a deeper issue and installed a new brake light switch. Very pleased with their thorough work--Thanks Murphy's!

I really like the friendliness and professionalism that you receive at Murphys Autocare. My car is older and sometimes the pricing exceeds my expectations for repair If I had a newer car I would not question the cost as much. I have 2 times now heard them on the radio and it happens that that is exactly what I need to check and they are always what I say is honest in their assessment. I trust them. Marie is a gem

Brian and the rest of the crew are fantastic. Did a complete inspection and told us everything that needed repairing, and even told us what was urgent and what could wait. Great service and fast work. We were back on the road by the end of the day.

I took my Lexus to two other mechanics before Murphy's and neither could figure out the problem. Murphy's got right to it and fixed it perfectly the first time. Very good job and the amount of detailed diagnostic information they give is simply amazing. Staff is courteous and professional. I've been to cheaper mechanics but you get what you pay for and these folks are definitely worth it.

Service is good here. I got a full vehicle inspection for $138 and a trade in value report printed for a vehicle I was purchasing in the area. When you drop off a vehicle you'll get status updates via email, text, and phone call which might be overkill.

The key to getting the most value out of your vehicle is regular excellent maintenance. Everything Murphy's Autocare does is excellent! They use only the best quality parts and products, document everything about your vehicle thoroughly, make it available to you online so you can track changes as they occur. Make a reservation to get your vehicle checked out and find out what you can do to extend its life and ensure it won't leave you stranded. All repairs come with a 3-year, 36,000 mile warranty. Have a new one? Be sure to have them do all your regular maintenance using BP Automotive Products and get a lifetime warranty at no additional charge. They kept my older truck running until I got tired of it, and have already put my new one on the track to being drivable for longer than I'm likely able to drive safely! When that happens, the kids (or maybe grandkids!) will be getting a great truck in excellent condition! Make Murphy Autocare the doctors for your vehicle health!

There are no words to describe how thankful I am to have found this place. After several horrible experiences at dealership service depts, we decided to seek help elsewhere. Now I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner. It's a bit of a drive, but oh so worth it! This is a company that knows the true meaning of customer service. It's evident that they place that and providing quality autocare above anything else. It's obvious that they've found a team to work with them that holds those same values. The handling on our vehicle is like night and day. My family is still amazed at the care and time they took with us and the detailed inspection report provided of our vehicle. I've already shown the email to several coworkers, one of whom I'd overheard complaining about dealing with the service desk at another dealership. They too were amazed at how thorough it was and said they'd never seen that before. Thank you again for all you did for us and all you'll continue to do for those that need you. The military may take us away from here and if that happens at some point, you'll definitely be missed. Until then, you'll have our business, along with anyone else we can send your way. You definitely put the CARE in autocare!

I recently experienced a rather unusual electrical problem with my '02 Lincoln. For no apparent reason the "door ajar" chime started and would not shut off (door locks, windows, sunroof and key fob stopped working at the same moment). Unfortunately my usual repair shop was not equipped to diagnose and the dealer recommendation after having the car for a week was to "sell the car for parts" as their best techs and even the Lincoln engineers consulted had no clue how to fix. Stunned at the suggestion I began looking for other options (driving with earplugs in the interim). My best decision by far was to consult Dave Murphy. After describing the problem in detail his advice to me was to "keep the car and fire the dealership". He convinced me that his staff could diagnose and fix the problem. Long story short, his staff resolved the problem in less than a day and at a very reasonable price. I wish to thank Dave, Bryan and Scott for a job well done. The only reason I'm giving Murphy's Autocare a five star rating is because the system doesn't offer six stars.

So I brought my car in today for a gas line leak. Well there was so much more wrong with my car. Its a 2002 and the rust was really bad. The trailing arm is ready to go and all three gas lines need to be replaced. With the rust being so bad there was no guarantee that they would be able to get the plate down to put in the new gas lines. They only charged me 35.00 to look at my car. They could of stringed me along for hundreds of dollars but did take advantage of me! Also they explained all my options to me. I was very impressed with there professionalism. They will be seeing me in the feature with any auto car needs an i will refer anyone else who needs auto car in the area.

Brought my car in for an oil change. Vehicle taken back within minutes of arriving, waiting room was great and access to WiFi was a huge bonus so that I could keep working while my car was being taken care of. Service was great! Thanks!

I've been using Murphy's Autocare for many years. Dave Murphy and his staff go out of their way to make our experience convenient as possible. I feel confident that the mechanics at Murphy's keep our vehicles running their best, which means they need fewer major repairs in the long run. If you want dealer quality service--or better--with a neighborhood feel--that level of friendliness and personal touch you won't find at a dealership, I can recommend Murphy's Autocare as the one place for all your automotive needs.
