Complex Vehicles, Proper Equipment and Tools

If you drive a European auto (Audi, BMW, Jaguar, Land Rover, Maserati, Mini Cooper, Porsche, Volkswagen, Volvo) or a Japanese vehicle (Acura, Honda, Hyundai, Infiniti, Kia, Lexus, Mazda, Nissan, Subaru, Toyota), rely on Whitedog Import Auto Service for all your preventive maintenance services and repairs. Be sure to check our tab related to your specific make. We maintain the same quality diagnostic equipment as a dealership. Yet, you won’t have to incur the inconvenience or extra expense of returning to the new car store for mechanical work. Our technicians are honest and thorough, yet many repairs can be completed on the same or the following day as your appointment. Whether you need brake repair, suspension repair, or complex electrical problems solved, we’re here to keep your car operating safely and at its best! You can be assured that we have the proper tools for your special automobile. That’s important because general tools don’t always fit your import, particularly brands such as Volkswagen and Audi. What’s more, our familiarity with your model allows for more efficient and effective work, saving you time and money.

A Friendly Portion of Customer Service

While we’re confident in our ability to perform the highest caliber work on your import, we also understand the importance of providing outstanding customer service. We offer before and after-hours drop-off and pick-up. If you’re waiting on site, take advantage of our free coffee and wifi to continue working or keep yourself entertained. Best of all, we protect your repair investment with a generous 24 month/24,000-mile warranty. Whitedog Import Auto Service respects your vehicle, and we respect you, explaining what’s needed and why, every step of the way.

Words From Our Happy Customers

Ryan E Reid

Everyone was very pleasant. After having our granddaughters car at a different shop and them not correcting the problem the mechanic at white dog was able to find the problem right away and fixed it in a decent time.we now feel much more at ease letting our granddaughter drive her car without fear it will break down. Our experience was wonderful will definitely refer people to this company.

Sherry Goody

I had taken my car to a certified Volvo dealer for my car overheating. They couldn’t figure it out so I brought my car here! Whitedog was confident from the start that they could figure it out. On the day of service, I received a call informing me of the problem and the steps they suggested for fixing it. They gave me plenty of time to think about what I wanted to do and got me back on the road! The BEST customer service and service around! … Read More

I have taken my Range Rover and 5 series BMW to several “high end dealerships” around our area, and hands down Whitedog has been the best experience I’ve had. Very honest people that work there and very accommodating to your schedule. Stop taking your vehicles to places that just throw parts at each problem, and go somewhere that they actually know how to assess and evaluate your vehicle, Whitedog!!!!

Joey Haynes

Our daughters had to pick up their brother for their grandfathers funeral in November and when they arrived the 2012 Volvo XC60 was making weird noises. I contacted Whitedog Imports and explained the situation and they had them bring it over. Long story short, Whitedog got the girls an Uber back to their hotel, had to order a part, fixed the car within a day and a half and were OUTSTANDING! Talk about a high stress time trying to get all of … Read More

I’ve had a great experience with Whitedog over the last several years of them working on my 12 year old car. The shop is very clean and comfortable if you need to wait, and they are professional, honest, friendly, and fair. They will refer you to other local businesses who are the same for repairs they don’t do in house. Couldn’t ask for a better shop!

Dawn Alam

Marlene Waikel

The week of Christmas, family was traveling to Iowa and had a problem with their Audi. The Audi dealership couldn’t get them in for weeks but they suggested we call White dog. Even though they were booked full, they fit us in to evaluate the Problem since my family would need the car to drive back across country in a few days. They diagnosed the problem very quickly and gave us three options along with pricing for all 3. The staff was extre… Read More

It was easy to get an appointment, easy drop off and pick up. We even got a reminder about what service was due next. We trust White Dog with all our vehicles.
