Serving Springfield Since Day One
Hi, I'm Maria Lopez, and I started Lopez Auto Care right here in Springfield, IL over 10 years ago with one simple mission: give this community an auto shop they could actually trust. I grew up watching people get overcharged and talked down to at repair shops, and I knew there had to be a better way. Lopez Auto Care was built on the promise that honesty and quality always go hand in hand.
We're a small, family-run operation, and that's something we're incredibly proud of. Every person on our team shares the same values — do the job right, communicate clearly, and treat every customer the way you'd treat a member of your own family. That's not a slogan; it's how we've operated from day one, and it's why so many of our customers have been coming back for years.
Our services range from quick routine maintenance — oil changes, tire rotations, brake inspections — all the way to complex engine and transmission work. We invest in the right tools and keep our training up to date so we can handle virtually any make or model that rolls through our doors. You'll always get a straight answer from us, no upselling, no runaround.
More than anything, we want to be Springfield's go-to auto shop — the place you recommend to your friends, your parents, your kids when they get their first car. We believe reliable, honest auto service shouldn't be hard to find. At Lopez Auto Care, it never will be.

Real words from real neighbors who trust Lopez Auto Care with their vehicles.
"I brought my 2017 Honda CR-V in for a check-engine light that three other shops quoted me a fortune to fix. Maria took one look at it, ran her diagnostics, and had it fixed for under $120. She explained everything step by step without making me feel talked down to. I've been going back ever since, and I send everyone I know here."
Denise Hargrove
Springfield resident, 3-year customer
"Lopez Auto Care is the real deal. I needed new brake pads and rotors on my truck, and they gave me a clear estimate upfront — no hidden fees, no upselling. The whole job was done by lunch. When I picked it up, Maria walked me through everything they did and showed me the old parts. That kind of transparency is rare, and I genuinely appreciate it."
Carlos Mendez
Small business owner, Springfield, IL
"As a single mom, I've always been nervous about auto shops — always worried I'd get taken advantage of. Maria and her team completely changed that for me. They fixed my alternator quickly, kept me updated by phone the whole time, and even squeezed in an oil change while the car was already there. Their prices are fair and they genuinely care. This is my shop for life."
