About Auto Assist Co. in Missoula, MT

Built on Montana Roots and Honest Auto Repair

When you bring your vehicle to Auto Assist Co., you're working with a team that understands Missoula's roads, climate, and community because we've been part of it for generations. Founded by a 7th-generation Montanan, our shop was built on a simple promise: deliver real quality control and honest repair recommendations for every customer.

We believe you deserve transparency in every service decision and mechanical work done right the first time. That's why we follow a strict "fix only what needs fixing" philosophy and never oversell or recommend unnecessary work.

Our approach is rooted in reliability, honesty, and putting your needs first—because your trust matters more than any upsell.



Discover how Auto Assist Co. brings integrity and expertise to automotive service across Missoula and the surrounding communities.

Both our owner and shop technician are Missoula natives with deep multigenerational family roots in Montana's automotive community. The owner brings 25 years of hands-on experience spanning fleet management, custom builds, restorations, and general maintenance. Our shop foreman adds 12 years of dealership experience, over 5 years in independent repair, and a machining background that gives our team wide-ranging diagnostic capability.

From the frost-coated mornings along the Clark Fork River to dusty summer drives through Lolo and Frenchtown, we know the conditions your vehicle faces every day. That local insight shapes how we approach every repair, tune-up, and inspection.

We're proud to support drivers and families across Missoula, Frenchtown, Lolo, Bonner, Arlee, and Potomac, helping our community keep vehicles running safely and reliably.
