“This isn’t a slogan. It’s a standard. We document the repair, verify the result, and stand behind the work.”
Complete vehicle coverage. Gas, Hybrid, and EV.
Quality isn’t a slogan. It’s a guarantee. We document the repair, verify the result, and stand behind the work. If an issue happens on the road, you’ll get real help—not excuses.
If you’re traveling and a covered repair has an issue, call us first. We’ll pull your invoice, confirm coverage, and help coordinate next steps so you’re not stuck guessing.
Warranty starts with workmanship. Every vehicle goes through a repeatable, documented process designed to reduce comebacks and ensure the repair is right the first time.
Photos and videos of what we found—so you can approve repairs with confidence.
Critical fasteners verified and documented. Wheels torqued before delivery.
We verify the symptom is gone and the vehicle performs correctly before it leaves.
Final review: cleanliness, warning lights, fluid checks, and service notes confirmed.
We are authorized to work with all major extended warranty providers. Our service advisors are experts at navigating the claims process, handling the paperwork, and communicating technical details to adjusters so you get the coverage you paid for.
You hand us the policy number; we handle the rest. We initiate the claim, schedule the adjuster inspections, and handle all technical phone calls.
Warranty companies require proof of failure. Our detailed Digital Vehicle Inspections (DVI) provide the undeniable photo and video evidence needed to justify claims.
We speak the technical language required to get approvals. We understand contract terms and ensure that adjusters treat your vehicle fairly according to your policy.
Planet Automotive Service Center was built to raise the standard of auto repair.
Too many repair experiences are built on mystery—unclear diagnoses, vague recommendations, and surprise invoices. We built a different model: verified inspections, clear communication, and repairs documented from start to finish.
Every visit is centered on evidence. We use Digital Vehicle Inspections (DVI) with real photos and videos, a clear red/yellow/green priority list, and approvals that happen before work begins—so you stay in control.
Behind the scenes, our team follows a consistent process: professional diagnostics, quality parts, torque-verified installs, and a final quality-control protocol before you get the keys.
Founded in 2019 and now serving both Bonneau and Johnsonville, we’re here to modernize the industry with cleaner shops, better systems, and customer experiences that earn long-term trust.
We don’t ask for blind trust. We document it.
Planet Automotive is a modern, systems-driven repair operation. We don’t guess—we verify. Digital inspections, real diagnostics, and clean accountability. If you take pride in doing things the right way, you’ll fit in here.

Not every visit requires a full teardown. We match the inspection to your needs. Here are the four types of digital reports you might receive, and when you get them.
We focus exclusively on your immediate problem to get you answers fast (typically 60-120 mins). We don't get distracted by unrelated issues yet.
If a dash light is on, we scan the vehicle computers. If a tire light is on, we scan the individual sensors. We diagnose the root cause of *that* issue.
A complete bumper-to-bumper assessment for proactive maintenance. This is the deep dive.
We check belts, hoses, brakes, and suspension. Crucially, we use chemical indicators to test coolant and brake fluid for hidden corrosion, not just low levels.
An alignment won't hold if suspension parts are loose. We verify the vehicle is "tight" before we try to set it straight.
Step 1: Physical shake-down of tie rods and ball joints. Step 2: Mount sensors on our Hunter machine to get exact measurements.
Ensuring the repair was done right, the car is clean, and it's safe to drive.
Our Service Advisor performs a final walkaround, records a 30-second cleanliness video, verifies odometer readings, and takes it on a confirmation test drive.
We bridge the gap between "Tire Shop" and "Dealership." We handle the critical mechanical and low-voltage systems that keep your modern vehicle on the road.
