What is Car Repair Program?

Our Car Repair Program is dedicated to helping low-income families get back on the road by providing essential car repairs at no cost. We believe that reliable transportation is crucial for accessing work, education, and healthcare, and we are committed to ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to maintain their independence.

  • Free car repairs for eligible families

  • Access to professional mechanics and quality parts

  • Empowering families with reliable transportation

  • Supporting community well-being and economic mobility

How the Program Works

Step 2:

Vehicle Assessment

Once a family is nominated and accepted, our team of expert mechanics will assess the vehicle to determine the necessary repairs.

Step 1:

Nomination by a Non-Profit

Families must be nominated by a partnering non-profit organization to be considered for the program.

Applications are not accepted directly from individuals.

Step 3:

Repair Process

Our network of certified repair shops will carry out the necessary repairs, ensuring the vehicle is safe and reliable.

Step 4:

Vehicle Return

Families are notified when their vehicle is ready, and they can pick it up fully repaired and ready to drive.

Step 5:

Follow up

We stay in touch to ensure the vehicle continues to meet the family's needs.
