Our Approach
E² Automotive LLC is a locally owned and operated full service automotive repair facility. The shop is managed by Matthew Laymon who has been serving vehicles in Wickliffe for the past twelve years. We take pride in our work, so you can have the peace of mind that your vehicle is safe and was repaired properly. We employ ASE certified mechanics. Also, we have state of the art equipment and the training to use it properly. So, we can fix the most complex systems on today’s ever changing automotive technology.
Our Story
Here at E² Automotive we have repaired personal vehicles, fleet vehicles, sports and racing vehicles, trailers, and some RV vehicles. So, no matter what you have odds are we have the experience to repair it. Also, we don’t think you should have to take out a mortgage to have your car repaired. That’s why we spend the time to find the best pricing on quality parts and materials to save our customers money. That doesn’t mean that we are using inferior quality parts. We only install parts that meet or exceed manufacturer specifications, and we check all our parts for quality before they are installed.
In addition to our staff, equipment, training, and quality parts we have one of the best warranties offered in the industry. Our warranty is 2 years/24 months and is nationwide through over 5000 federated backed shops. The program contains over 27,000 shops nationwide and covers federated car care, Napa car care, and advanced auto repair shops. If you’re in California and your car fails due to a part we installed it will be taken care of and we stand behind it. We will even put you in a hotel while your vehicle is being repaired. We do what’s necessary to go above and beyond for our customers.
