L & R Automotive
L & R Automotive is an auto repair and maintenance shop at 10300 Ralston Road in Arvada, Colorado, in Jefferson County. The About page describes it as a Christian family owned automotive maintenance and repair shop located in Arvada that has been servicing vehicles since 1994, and the homepage repeats that founding year. The site frames the business around what it calls a people-first approach built on transparency, convenience, quality and integrity, and says the founding goal was twofold: to provide fulfilling careers in the automotive industry and to deliver exceptional car care. The About page is blunt about why that matters, saying the shop values treating customers the way it wants to be treated and earning the trust of the people who come in, and that it relies heavily on word-of-mouth from current customers to keep growing. Safety is described as the number one priority. The shop works on cars, trucks and SUVs and specializes in servicing North American, European and Asian import vehicles, publishing model lists that run from Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Ford, GMC, Jeep, Lincoln and RAM on the domestic side to Acura, Honda, Infiniti, Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru and Toyota plus Hyundai and KIA on the import side. The Offered Services list covers Battery and Starting, Belts and Hoses, Brake, Clutch, Cooling System, Diagnostic, Differential, Drivetrain, Electrical, Emission, Engine, Filter and Fluid, Four-Wheel Drive, Fuel System, Heating and Cooling, Inspection, Lighting and Wipers, Suspension and Steering, and Transmission, which the homepage summarizes as everything from routine oil changes to complex engine diagnostics. The team is described as an integrated group of ASE Certified technicians, service advisers and dedicated management, and the fleet page notes that many of the shop's mechanics are ASE Certified. L & R Automotive is a NAPA AutoCare Center, and the NAPA AutoCare Peace of Mind Warranty it offers is a written warranty covering parts and labor for 36 months or 36,000 miles on qualifying repairs and services, included at no charge with qualified work and honored across the United States by over 10,000 NAPA AutoCare Centers. The shop offers up-front estimates, an online appointment request form, and NAPA EasyPay financing through the NAPA AutoCare EasyPay Credit Card, subject to credit approval. When a repair or service requires a vehicle to be left at the shop for more than a day, a team member will provide a ride to a nearby destination, and the shop can arrange to pick the customer up once the work is finished. For local businesses, L & R Automotive runs a fleet program with competitive pricing and a detailed service interval program, working with a company's fleet manager on a comprehensive maintenance schedule with ongoing records kept accessible. The shop is open Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM and is closed Saturday, Sunday and all major holidays. For a breakdown where towing is not covered by insurance, the site points drivers to APT Towing, an outside company, rather than handling towing in house.
