WEST WARWICK, R.I. –  Friday, October 31, 2013

Mike Turcotte Automotive recently moved to 1086 Main Street in West Warwick.  The business first opened its garage doors six years ago when owner, Mike Turcotte decided to turn a hobby that he and his father shared when he was younger, into a business. 

With over 25 years of automotive experience both at some of the major dealerships in Rhode Island and also at his own automotive shop, Turcotte, an ASE Certified Master Technician treats each customer as if they are family

"We pride ourselves on treating our customers not as if they were just another number, but instead as a member of what we call our 'automotive family' at 1086 Main Street.

The family oriented atmosphere that Mike Turcotte Automotive boasts has paid off with an impressive customer retention rate and a clientele which has been mostly built on customer referrals of family and friends. 

"Our customers get the benefits of having their vehicles serviced at a local business by being able to bring their questions, comments and concerns directly to me."

Sam Rachiele who resides in Coventry stated -   "I've trusted Mike Turcotte Automotive with all of my and my family’s vehicles since they opened.  They take the extra step to explain and help me understand what is being done to my car. It's very comforting to be able to trust your mechanic."

As a small business owner, Turcotte understands both the benefits and pitfalls of running his own shop.

"Like many other Americans, we were tremendously impacted when the economy sank five years ago", Turcotte said. In order to keep the business alive, Turcotte depleted all of his assets including his beloved hotrod, a gray 1980 Chevy Malibu.  "I put my heart and soul into this business and continue to do so every day." 

Servicing all makes and models with a wide variety of services, Mike Turcotte Automotive provides his customers who are located within a 10 mile radius with a convenient "Pick Up/Drop Off service" for regular maintenance such as oil changes and vehicle inspection, etc.

For more information regarding Mike Turcotte Automotive or to schedule a service, call 401-823-1300 or visit them at 1086 Main Street, West Warwick, RI 02893
