Madison Automotive

With specialized teams for both preowned and new-car sales, Serra Toyota of Decatur’s staff outfits customers with shiny rides, and a service team of certified technicians restores cars, trucks, and SUVs to proper working order. After autos spend countless hours carting passengers back and forth or chasing down a cheetah who’s broken its leash, techs reward their hard work with routine oil changes, tire rotations, and AC refreshers that ensure smooth-running commutes and breakdown-free road trips. Mechanics also employ their extensive T-Ten training to carry out complex repairs or replace essential parts for import and domestic vehicles. After servicefolk and salespeople clock out from the garage and showroom, they show their support for the community by hosting and backing fundraisers for organizations such as Toys for Tots or Wounded Warriors.

Brothers' Auto Tech reaches out to cars with promises of tender loving maintenance and woos waiting drivers with the gifts of free WiFi and shuttle service. The ASE-certified technicians tend to vehicles dating back to 1930 in the 5,300-square-foot facility, performing everything from basic oil and lube services to in-depth engine and transmission work. Brothers' Auto Tech's shock and strut replacements help forge a stronger symbiosis between wheels and pavement, and brake and electrical diagnostic services help keep both lone-ranging cars and massive company fleets humming melodiously. Headlight restoration focuses on improving visibility at night and improving the look of a vehicle by removing the hazy layer from the outer surface of the headlights. When not focused on automotive performance, staff members offer fuel-economy advice and maintenance tips.
