Service and Maintenance

Following your service and maintenance schedule is important for any car owner. The biggest complaint we hear is, “why is my car always breaking down.” Not all the time, however, in most situations poor maintenance has been given to that vehicle. We know that servicing your car is expensive but it is critical to attempt to properly care for your vehicle. Follow your manufactures maintenance schedule and avoid serious

 mechanical problems in the future.  An oil change is only $32.95 every 3,500 mile or three months. Fluid changes are the best thing you can do for your car and it is not terribly expensive. If you bring your car to the same service center for services that allows them to track and head off potential problems. Your car is not just a device for transportation; it is an investment of your time and money. Maintenance is key for a long lasting investment. 

A dream and aspirations of one individual became a life ambition. This concept was born from a life of legacy, the entrepreneur spirit, and determination. January of 2001 a company was formed from a meek and humble beginning. A star was pulled from the heavens and given to a man, Steve Smith. The jewel that lived and breathed in his mind for so long had been brought into reality; it was named S&S Auto Repair.

The purpose of this company is to meet three simple principles. It is to provide the consumer with dealership quality and experience in an independently owned service center. The technicians associated with S&S are specialist, trained by the technical schools of the Honda, Toyota, and Nissan Corporate training centers and hold ASE certifications. We expect nothing more than the best from each individual of our support staff, which passes on excellence to the consumers.  With the extreme prices that the automotive industry yields, it can be devastating to the budgets and wallets of our patrons. It was essential for us to lower the cost of all our services and products, in order to help those in our community. Education is also one of our most important attributes. Providing information, tips, and knowledge about the client’s vehicle or potential vehicles is a complementary service. This will help further the life of the automobile and potentially yield more in the resell value. Investing in current technology and continuing education for all staff reflects in our service and cost. S&S Auto Repair does not want to be an average service center; rather, we strive for a unique atmosphere and relationship with every client and their vehicle.  We have committed our services and time to help others with expert technical support, low costs, and consumer education. Our purpose is essential and simple to achieve, we think that you will like meeting and developing a relationship with us.

S&S Auto Repair has quickly become a jewel of the Chattanooga area automobile industry. We can not help but thank everyone that has given us support and their loyalty. Our priority is to give each customer respect, assistance, and value when using S&S Auto Repair for all your automobile needs and concerns.

In 1974 a young man began his journey into a hard and labor intensive field of the automotive world.  Steve Smith started to tinker and develop a niche with different mechanical devices at an early age. He was intrigued with the mechanics of automobiles; troubleshooting and assessing a vehicle’s issues brought satisfaction in his labor.

As Steve matured as a young man, he began to excel rapidly in his field. On July 19, 1974 he received his first, of many certifications, from the National Service Training Department of American Honda. By the end of his career, before his retirement as an American Honda Technician and from Economy Honda Cars, he had completed over 17 certifications. He was award the ASE Master Automobile Technician Certification and in 1995 American Honda recognized him as a Honda Master Technician. During his career he was also recognized as one of the best American Honda Technicians in the Southeastern Region. Representing Economy Honda Cars and Chattanooga in the American Honda’s Troubleshooting Contest, he won this award five consecutive years, during 1993 through 1997. Late in Steve’s career American Honda awarded him the Honda Operations Management Certification, also, earning the bronze and silver award for excellence as Service Manager in 2000. Steve has worked as a Technician Specialist, Shop Forman, and Service Manager for more than 30 years here in Chattanooga. He established himself with integrity, loyalty, and reliability; known for these attributes he has been trusted for years by the community to bring a better level and unique service to the automobile industry. After retiring from Economy Honda Cars in November of 2000, he took a short sabbatical. During this time, it was pressed upon him to establish an independently owned service center. His dream began to grow and the doors opened for this idea to take flight. S&S Auto Repair was formed in 2001, its purpose was simple: to helps others with expert technical support, low cost, and consumer education.

The man under your hood is one of the most well rounded and accomplished technicians in the Chattanooga area. To understand the determination, hard work, and legacy; we would need to peer into his past for the influences, struggles, and victories. Steve was born to a young man and his wife on a small Alabama farm minutes from Chattanooga. The younger of two children, Steve grew up on the family farm in Bryant, AL. During his childhood his father Freeman Smith, an entrepreneur, put wings on his dream. The name of this company was called S&S Motor Sales. Freeman, a clock repairman, auctioneer, and small business owner, developed his business into one of the largest privately owned dealerships in Tennessee and the Southeast. He owned several dealerships bearing the name of marquee automobile makers; Volvo, Saab, Mazda and Honda. While Freeman fought and succeeded as a business owner in Chattanooga, it was the boys and their mother whom tented to the responsibilities of the farm and cattle. Steve and his brother were responsible for most of the rigorous chores; hard work was instilled in him at an early age. The demanding responsibility and exhausting work from farm life, while combating a softened hip joint with a full leg and hip brace, conditioned Steve to be the determined man he is. Overcoming the various obstacles of his youth and sitting on his father’s knee, Freeman was an inspiration and example to Steve, as a business entrepreneur.  Married for over thirty years to Melonie, they raised two children, Aaron and Blake. Steve has always had a heart for the community, volunteering on committees, as a leader, teacher, and a coach. Invested in his work, goals and dreams; he is rooted and committed to his family, neighbors and friends. At times spreading and pushing himself thin, he gave of himself and has made a difference in many lives. After years of being steadfast and loyal to a leader in the Chattanooga automobile industry; it was his time to lead the way for others. S&S Auto Repair was formed and is presently helping the community with its automotive needs.

Steve personally wants to thank everyone that has supported him, his family, and S&S Auto Repair and given us your loyalty. Without friends, family, and customers like we have been able to have a unique relationship with, S&S would still be a dream and not reality. We appreciate each and every one of our patrons. Thank you.

We have 10 full and operating service bays. A completely enclosed temperature controlled facility.

Text Box: Our Service Bays
Text Box: Our Parts Department

We have a parts department that carries 1,000’s of parts. Generally we have everything we need to fix your car in house. You expect to find a parts department at a dealership. That is not the industry standard for independent repair shops. At most independent repair shops parts hang from the walls or are just laying anywhere there is a spot. Not at S & S Auto Repair, we want to give the dealership quality and service you expect just not at those high prices.

At S & S Auto Repair we are staying in the fore front of the technology of vehicle diagnostics. We subscribe to Honda’s Service Express and Toyota’s Technical Information System (TIS), which gives all diagnostic codes, updates, and recalls that are available. Paralleling the dealerships with the same technology benefits you, the customer, and it makes us an industry leader.

The Nissan Consult—II (view below) is the main diagnostic tool for an Nissan and Infiniti dealership. We are currently waiting for the opportunity to purchase the next generation Nissan diagnostic device, the Nissan Consult—III.

This is a PGM Tester used to diagnose most any vehicle on the road. We mainly use this device for Toyota  diagnostics.

ALERT: We have just received news that Toyota has released its Techstream diagnostic system which will be available for purchase soon.

Honda Diagnostic System (HDS): We are currently running two platforms with the HDS. When most dealerships only have one, we have the capability to run two for more efficiency.  Currently this is the most up-to-date system American Honda has to offer.
