Consistency, Excellence, and Value

Since 1982, Ron's Auto Repair Center has been a trusted name for quality auto repair in the Ames area. As a NAPA Gold Certified Auto Care Center, we combine the reliability and high standards of a national brand with the friendly, personalized service you expect from a locally owned business.

Being a NAPA Gold Certified Auto Care Center means we’re part of the top shops in the country that are pushing the auto repair industry forward. To be a part of this program, we use modern automotive repair technology utilized by the highest level of ASE (Automotive Service Excellence) Certified staff. Outside of the garage, we’re taking strides to be a modern business that uses digital tools for customer satisfaction. We’ve proven a consistently outstanding customer experience - we maintain a 4-star minimum rating on digital platforms.


Our staff and their skill level are incredibly valuable to us. As part of the Gold Certification, we maintain at least one full time Master ASE technician or an ASE Blue Seal. We also regularly attend Autotech training where our mechanics improve their skills to maintain first-rate service for correct diagnosis and accurate repair.

Because we trust our technicians’ exceptional workmanship, we offer an extended NAPA Peace of Mind warranty for 36 months, or 36 thousand miles that can be honored at NAPA repair centers across the country.


We want to earn your trust through clear and effective communication. We provide a Digital Vehicle Inspection that sends you SMS updates and photos of what’s going on under the hood. With Ron's Auto Repair Center, you will stay contacted and informed with everything we’re doing!


We understand the unfortunate circumstance of balancing your budget and a costly repair. We accept and offer financing through the NAPA Credit Card, so you always have the choice to keep your vehicle running safely.
