Chapter I
— What we do —
Page 1
Full mechanic & body work
Day-to-day mechanical service for the cars and pickups of O’Connor Drive — diagnostic, repair, and the paperwork that comes with it. The list, in plain language:
Body work
Panel and body repair handled in-shop alongside the mechanical side, which means one place, one phone call, and one person walking you through what the car actually needs.
Safety certificates
Ontario Motor Vehicle Inspection Station — safety certificates for transfers and re-registration, with everything explained clearly before any work is signed off.
Air conditioning
A/C service and installation for cars that have stopped blowing cold — recharge, leak diagnosis, and full system replacement when that’s what’s called for.
Sales & service
The shop also handles pre-owned sales alongside the service bays. Financing is available; ask Ara for the current inventory and what’s on the lot.
Honest diagnostics
If the smarter call is to scrap the car or skip a repair, that’s the answer you’ll get. Customers come back for nearly two decades because the shop doesn’t upsell what isn’t needed.

In their own words

I’ve been coming to Rogers Auto on O’Connor Drive for over 17 years, and I can honestly say it’s one of the most trustworthy and reliable mechanic shops you’ll find. What I appreciate most is their honesty. They don’t try to upsell unnecessary work and they treat every customer with respect. It’s rare to find a shop you can trust for nearly two decades, but Rogers Auto has definitely earned that trust.
I recently went to Roger’s Auto Centre to get a safety certificate for my car, and I had a great experience. Ara and his team are very skilled and professional. What I liked most was their honesty. Ara explained everything clearly and didn’t try to sell me anything I didn’t need. The prices were fair and easy to understand, which made the whole process smooth.
Recently I ran my car up on curve block cover with snow…tenants in the building were saying positive about Rogers so I had car towed there and it was very close to home… it was a very reasonable price that was offered but knowing the history of the car… I got excellent service there…would definitely go back…Thank you
Excellent Experience — very honest Owner and his team of mechanics are great — I would recommend this shop to everyone looking for an honest and reliable Mechanic.
I always take my car there. Very kind and professional people. I highly recommend their business.
