Centerville, Ohio
897 S Main St
Ripoff Report #1542773
Submission date: September 18, 2026

A customer’s report says a 2001 Lincoln remained at the shop for about four months following an agreement with a former manager for repairs costing approximately $500 or less.

The customer alleges confusion about authorized work and says the company corrected earlier statements that parts had been installed. The report also alleges a threat to tow the vehicle.

Reported response

According to the customer, the company apologized for incorrect information and offered a radiator and installation at no charge. The customer said that offer did not resolve the wider dispute.

What is verified: The complaint’s publication and the shop’s franchise connection. The alleged admission, authorization, delay and final outcome have not been independently verified. The retrieved report showed no posted rebuttal.

02 / Our position

Editorial opinion

A repair promise deserves a clear paper trail.

Customers should be able to understand the approved work, its price, what was completed and how a dispute will be handled. We believe those details should be in writing.

03 / Verification

What the evidence supports.

Checked September 26, 2026. The sources reviewed did not establish a court or regulator finding against Indiana Auto Care for these incidents.

The operator is matched.

The official franchise and brand directories connect the Centerville address to Indiana Auto Care. “Indiana Auto Care” includes Ohio locations; this page concerns the operator, not just the state of Indiana.

The complaint is attributed.

A public post establishes that an allegation was made. It does not authenticate invoices, messages or photographs, or establish who caused a mechanical failure. “Author confirmed” on a complaint platform is not a finding of wrongdoing.

The dispute stays in context.

The reported response and proposed remedy remain with the repair complaint. This page focuses on criticism; these selected accounts cannot establish how frequently problems occur across the franchise.

04 / Before you approve repairs

Keep a record you can use.

01 — Authorization

“Which work have I approved?”

Keep the written estimate, agreed price and any changes to the repair scope.

02 — Completion

“What was actually installed?”

Ask for an itemized invoice identifying the parts and completed work.

03 — Resolution

“What happens next, and when?”

Save dated messages and ask for a written response describing any proposed remedy.
