About AER in Franklin, MA

In 1998, Patrick and his brother, Bob, founded Grove Street Auto Repair with a commitment to deliver exceptional customer service and auto repairs in the Franklin area. Their dedication soon garnered a loyal clientele of Euro car owners. Recognizing the demand, they envisioned a dedicated facility for European car repairs. Thus, Advanced European Repair was born, complementing the legacy of Grove Street Auto Repair. Both establishments continue to operate as family-owned businesses.

Our Mission at Advanced European Repair

Our ethos remains consistent with our roots: “To consistently serve the Franklin communities with unparalleled auto repair and preventative maintenance, positioning ourselves as the superior alternative to dealerships.” We understand the trust you place in us to ensure your vehicles’ safety. That’s why we commit to accurate repairs on the first try. 

Standing behind our work, we proudly offer a 36-month, 36,000-mile nationwide warranty on most services. Furthermore, we actively contribute to our community’s well-being.

Different From the Dealership

We may be your dealership alternative, but the similarities end with the state-of-the-art equipment we use to diagnose and repair your vehicle properly. We provide convenience and quality. You are not just another number to us. We really care about you and your family and want to keep everyone as safe as possible while you are on the road.

Our Process

When you first come into the shop, we will confirm your complaints and then complete a full digital vehicle inspection. We will send you photos of the repairs you need and go over our findings with you. Once you approve the work, we’ll start repairs.

We believe in communication, so we will keep you updated if anything changes, such as the estimated time of completion. While we try our best to keep to the timeframe we gave, sometimes things out of our control delay us, such as receiving the wrong part from the warehouse or finding an additional problem that was not visible until we tore down the vehicle. That said, we will work to find time-sensitive solutions, give you updates, and get your vehicle back to you as soon as possible.

Our Services

Tires and Alignments

Tires are a significant safety item on your vehicle and are a wear-and-tear item. They are the only contact your vehicle has with the road, so they must be kept in excellent condition. Checking the air pressure at least once per month and rotating the tires every other oil change ensures even tread wear. Checking the alignment once per year also increases a tire’s lifespan.

Steering and Suspension

The steering and suspension work together to keep the vehicle on the road and give you a safe and comfortable ride. Repairs include struts, shocks, control arms, tie rod ends, power steering pumps, gearboxes, rack and pinion, and high and low-pressure power steering hoses.

Brakes

Your vehicle’s brakes are one of the safety features you should inspect frequently. When the brake pads get low, you’ll usually hear a squealing noise – the metal tab on the brake pads scraping the rotors. Ignoring low brake pads can lead to more damage to rotors, calipers and brake hoses. We can repair all those parts, plus master cylinders and ABS.

Cooling System Repairs

The cooling system keeps your vehicle from overheating. We can replace radiators, water pumps, thermostats, electric fans, manual fans, fan clutches, and hoses.

If you want to have a comfortable ride regardless of the season, keep the heating and air conditioning systems in good working order. We can replace evaporator cores, heater cores, compressors, condensers, high and low-pressure air conditioning lines, heater hoses and more.

When the check engine light comes on, it’s telling you there’s something wrong with your transmission or engine. Whether the issue is big or small, we have the diagnostic equipment to track down the problem and repair it.

Engine Repair

When the engine has trouble, such as head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, timing belts, timing chains, exhaust manifold gaskets, freeze plugs and more, you can count on Advanced European Repair to get you back on the road as quickly as possible.
