AI Receptionist for
Auto Repair Shops
Your technicians can't answer calls while they're under a car. Your service advisors are already with customers at the counter. The phone rings — and that job goes to whoever picks up. True Elevation AI makes sure that's always you.
What Are Missed Calls Costing Your Auto Repair Shop?
Find out exactly how much revenue your shop is losing every month — and which plan covers your call volume.
The Numbers Every Shop Owner Should Know
Here's what the data shows about missed calls and lost revenue in the auto repair industry.
What Auto Shop Owners Are Saying
Real feedback from auto repair shops and automotive businesses using True Elevation AI.
An AI Receptionist Built for Auto Repair Shops
Custom-built for your shop — your services, your pricing, your bay availability, and how you want every call handled.
Every Call Answered While Your Team Is Working
Your technicians are under cars. Your service advisors are with customers at the counter. Your AI answers every call the moment it comes in — no hold times, no voicemail, no lost jobs.
Collects Vehicle Details Before the Appointment
The AI gathers make, model, year, mileage, symptoms, warning lights, and problem description from every caller — so your technicians know exactly what's coming in before the car pulls into the bay.
Breakdown Calls Escalated Immediately
The AI recognizes breakdown keywords — "won't start," "smoking," "stranded," "check engine," "broke down" — and immediately escalates to your on-call team so high-value emergency jobs are never missed.
Service Appointments Booked Automatically
Books repair appointments, oil changes, and estimates directly into your calendar based on bay availability and service type — sends confirmation texts and reminders to reduce no-shows.
Common Price Questions Answered Instantly
Oil change prices, brake job estimates, tire rotation costs — the AI answers the questions your team gets asked 20 times a day so they can stay focused on the cars in the shop.
Brings Back Customers Who Never Booked
The AI follows up with leads who called but didn't book, customers due for maintenance, and old customers you haven't heard from — turning cold leads into booked repair slots automatically.
Auto Repair Shops Lose $135,000 a Year to Missed Calls.
Your team is doing their job — fixing cars. But every call that goes unanswered while they're working is revenue that walks out the door.
Technicians Can't Stop Mid-Job to Answer the Phone
A tech in the middle of a brake job can't drop everything to answer a call. A service advisor helping a customer at the counter can't pick up either. The phone rings — and that job goes to whoever answers.
Breakdown Calls at Night Go to Voicemail
A driver's car breaks down at 7pm. They call your shop, get voicemail, and immediately call the next shop on Google. That's a tow job and repair worth $400-$1,500 gone in 15 seconds.
Your Team Answers the Same Questions All Day
"How much is an oil change?" "Do you do brake jobs?" "What are your hours?" Your service advisors answer these dozens of times a day — every one of those calls is time not spent with a customer in the shop.

AI Receptionist for Auto Repair — FAQ
-
Can the AI handle after-hours breakdown calls?Yes. The system is trained to recognize breakdown keywords — "won't start," "smoking," "stranded," "broke down" — and can immediately escalate urgent calls to your on-call team or take down details for a first-thing-in-the-morning callback, depending on your protocols.
-
Can it collect vehicle details before the appointment?Yes. The AI collects make, model, year, mileage, symptoms, and problem description from every caller — so your technicians have full context before the vehicle arrives and your service advisors can prepare accurate estimates.
-
Can it answer pricing questions for common services?Yes. The AI is trained on your specific pricing for oil changes, brake jobs, tire rotations, and other common services — giving customers immediate answers instead of putting them on hold or calling them back.
-
Can it book appointments into our existing shop management system?Yes. We integrate with your existing calendar and scheduling setup. For shops using shop management software, we work with your team during setup to connect the AI to your existing workflows.
-
How much does it cost?Pricing starts at $1,000 per month based on your call volume. Given that the average auto repair shop loses an estimated $135,000 per year to missed calls, most shops find the system pays for itself within days of going live. See full pricing on our pricing page.
