Common Questions from Auto Shop Owners
How does an answering service help my auto repair shop?
An answering service ensures you never miss emergency breakdown calls, captures detailed appointment requests 24/7, provides your business information, and captures leads even when you're under the hood. Studies show auto shops miss 40% of calls during business hours - we ensure you capture every opportunity.
Can you handle emergency roadside assistance calls?
Yes! Our service answers emergency calls 24/7, marks them as urgent, collects location and vehicle details, and immediately notifies you via SMS and email. We follow your exact protocols for breakdowns, accidents, and roadside assistance.
How do you schedule oil changes and routine maintenance?
Our AI receptionist captures appointment requests based on your service types. Customers can request oil changes, tire rotations, and other services 24/7. You'll receive instant notifications via email or SMS with all the details to confirm. Automated calendar booking is coming soon.
What about parts inquiries and availability?
Our AI can handle common parts inquiries based on the information you provide. We'll take customer details and parts requests, then notify you immediately so you can check availability and pricing. All inquiries are logged in your dashboard for easy follow-up.
Can you provide repair estimates over the phone?
Yes, we use your pricing matrix to provide ballpark estimates for common repairs, schedule detailed inspections for accurate quotes, and explain warranty coverage - all following your shop's specific guidelines.
How much does automotive answering service cost?
Plans start at $39/month, billed by the minutes you use — not per call. Higher-volume shops typically run on a mid or top tier based on call volume; see our pricing page for all tiers. No setup fees, no contracts. Most shops see ROI within the first week from captured after-hours emergency calls alone.
Do you understand automotive terminology?
Absolutely. Our AI is trained on automotive terminology, common car problems, makes/models, and repair procedures. We speak your customers' language and can intelligently discuss symptoms, services, and solutions.
How does appointment information reach our shop?
Every appointment request is instantly sent to you via email and SMS notifications. You can also access all requests, customer details, and call logs through our web dashboard. Export data anytime for your records or to import into your existing systems.
How do you handle warranty and insurance claims?
We collect claim numbers, insurance information, document damage descriptions, schedule insurance inspections, and explain your warranty policies. All information is properly documented for claim processing.
What about fleet and commercial accounts?
We maintain separate protocols for fleet customers, track PO numbers and billing preferences, schedule multiple vehicles, and provide priority handling for your commercial accounts.
