Duddie Automotive LLC is located on 1030 Broad Street in Meriden, Connecticut. We’ve been in business since 2005 and are a family owned/operated business that offers personal service for all who need automotive repair services f
or passenger vehicles, light trucks and SUV’s. We are bonded, licensed by the state of Connecticut, and insured. We provide our customers with a full line of automotive repair service on all makes and models of domestic and foreign cars, trucks, & SUV's. Our mechanics are experienced ASE certified people and our facility is equipped with state of the art diagnostic equipment. EXPERIENCE
Owner and master ASE technician Joe Duddie has over 20 years of experience. He has worked on all makes and models of vehicles and was the service manager and shop foreman for a 12 bay garage in Hamden for many years. His vast knowledge of the industry enables him to give our customers the best service possible at a reasonable price. NEW BUSINESS
Last year we increased services to our customers and the greater Meriden community by launching an automotive used car sales business. We buy used cars from various auction houses, dealers and owners. Each vehicle purchased is evaluated using a 19 point safety inspection mandated by CT DMV to ensure applicable repairs have been made to each vehicle prior to sale. Our goal is and always will be to provide our customers with dependable, safe transportation at a reasonable price. WARRANTEE SERVICE
If you’re in the market for a used car, truck or SUV, keep in mind that risk mitigation is part of ownership. The cost for repair parts in today’s market place is high and often exceeds the labor costs for making the repair. Let me give you an example. We had a customer stop in because his car wasn’t running properly. We performed a diagnosis and found the trouble. The cars catalytic converter system had malfunction and needed to be replaced. The industry standard for the repair job was 4 hours of labor. Our labor rate is $85.00 per hour. The cost for the parts to replace the catalytic converter system was around $2600.00, ouch! Likewise if you own a vehicle with an expired warrantee, don’t put yourself at risk for the total costs for parts and labor on repair jobs. For a small fee you can buy a good warrantee package that will protect you from big repair bills. Please consider stopping by our office or calling us on the phone to discuss your warrantee needs. I’m sure we can offer you a suitable warrantee package at a reasonable price that will meet your needs and provide some protection from such unexpected expenses.
