TC Garage is built around one idea: diagnose the real problem, explain it in plain language, quote it before you touch it, and fix it right the first time.
Kennewick, WA
TC Garage opened in 2024 at 1351 E 3rd Avenue in Kennewick as an independent, owner-operated shop. We work on every make and model: daily drivers, diesel pickups, European imports, work vans, and the medium-duty trucks most shops turn away.
The approach is simple. We test before we replace. A lot of repair bills come from guessing, so we diagnose first, tell you exactly what we found, and quote the fix in writing. Nothing starts until you approve it, and if anything changes mid-job you hear about it before it changes the bill.
That's how the shop earned a 5.0 rating on Google in its first years: one honest repair at a time. Read the reviews and you'll see the same three things over and over. It got fixed the first time, the estimate matched the bill, and they knew what was happening the whole way through.
What's wrong, what it costs, and what can safely wait until next time. In plain language, without the upsell.
Cost and timing are set up front. If anything changes, you approve it before it changes the bill.
You'll hear from us during the job, not just when it's time to pick up the keys.
Pickups, daily drivers, European cars, work vans and medium-duty trucks. If it's on the road, bring it in.
Monday through Friday. No after-hours key drop, so we can walk through the complaint with you in person.
Codes get read, then the circuit or component actually gets tested. You pay for the fix, not for guesses.
Parts, labor and timing in writing. Nothing happens without your OK.
Updates while it's on the lift, then a walkthrough of what was done when you pick up.
TC Garage is owner-operated, which means the person who quotes your repair is the person accountable for it. There's no service writer between you and the technician, and no commission on parts.
The shop was set up for the vehicles most places don't want: two-post lifts with the capacity for medium-duty trucks, and the diagnostic and programming tools to finish a repair in-house instead of sending you somewhere else to have a module programmed.
Business is done in English, by phone or text, and every customer talks to the shop directly.
Cash and cards. Every job is quoted before it starts, so the total at pickup is the total you approved.
During shop hours only. There's no after-hours key box. Call or text ahead if you're running late and we'll work it out.
ADAS camera and radar calibration, safety-restraint (airbag and seat-belt) work, tire sales, and fleet maintenance contracts.
