Why 59 Auto: A Quick Overview

Customer Satisfaction

At 59 Auto, we specialize in taking care of our neighbors, one car at a time. Owner Rich Brauer is an ASE Certified Master Technician himself, and along with his wife and co-owner, Linda, they train all employees to meet their high standards of honest and ethical work.

59 Auto's goal is to educate all customers about the importance of a preventative approach to auto repair, a proven way to save thousands of dollars over the life of each vehicle in a household. Owners Rich & Linda and their staff carry that education beyond preventative services, too, and strive to make sure that every customer makes an informed decision about their car's repairs.

With 175 years of combined staff experience, 59 Auto is the best place to bring your vehicle for quality, service, integrity and prices that will get you back on the road, quickly and affordably.

NAPA AutoCare Center

59 Auto is a NAPA Auto Care Center, meaning it meets the rigorous standards of the NAPA AutoCare Program. An approved shop must meet standards for "community reputation, integrity, qualifications, and expertise."

Being a NAPA AutoCare Center also means offering the NAPA AutoCare Peace of Mind Warranty, which covers qualifying repairs for 12-months/12,000 miles.

59 Auto is one of only two Repair & Maintenance NAPA AutoCare Centers in Plainfield.

ASE Certified Master Technicians

59 Auto employs three ASE Certified Master Technicians, a title which means that they are certified by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence on every mechanical and electrical component and system.

An ASE Certification signifies a commitment to excellence by a technician. In order to be certified in an area, a technician must take difficult, national tests on the most current methods and models, meaning they must constantly be learning about new technologies as they are developed. Technicians must also re-test every five years in order to keep their certification.

ASE Certified Master Technicians must keep current certifications in eight areas: Engine Repair, Engine Performance, Electrical/Electronic Systems, Brakes, Heating and Air Conditioning, Suspension and Steering, Manual Drive Train and Axles, and Automatic Transmissions. For this reason, 59 Auto is the place to bring your car for auto repair that you can trust to get it right, the first time.

ACDelco Total Service Support

59 Auto is an ACDelco Total Service Support Center, meaning that we must meet the high standards of quality service, fair value and convenience, and trustworthiness that comes from a dedication to customer satisfaction. In addition, all TSS shops must have comfortable and professional facilities, as well as highly trained technicians for each area of work performed in the shop.

Being an ACDelco TSS Center also means that quality AC Delco products are always available, so that every car can have the best possible parts, leading to the best possible repair.
