Types

Some auto parts stores also maintain service operations. Examples include Pep Boys, Walmart, and Sears Auto Center.

There are also independently owned and operated businesses like Suchorski's Auto Repair in Milwaukee, WI or regional or national chains and franchises. Examples of chains and franchises include Midas and Firestone Complete Auto Care.

A third type of repair shop is the service departments of car dealerships. These shops are the only ones authorized to perform warranty and recall repairs by the manufacturers and distributors, excepting in the European Union.
