About Us

Hollis & Son has been fixing cars on Bellefontaine Avenue since 1978. Ed Hollis opened with two bays and a borrowed lift. Today his son runs the shop, and the third generation looks after the diagnostics.

We work on domestic and import cars, trucks and SUVs, gas, diesel and hybrid. Our technicians are ASE certified and our equipment is kept current, because modern vehicles leave no choice.

Most of our customers live a few miles away, in Marion, Prospect, Caledonia and across Marion County. Plenty of them are the children of people who first came to us decades ago. We'd like to keep it that way.

A car people around here driveThe Honda CR-V is one of Ohio's best-selling vehicles right now, and it's built about 30 miles away in East Liberty. A familiar car reads as local. A stock sports car reads as bought. The words are general maintenance advice with Marion's winters in them.

Maintenance

Keeping your vehicle on the road

No vehicle runs well for long without regular care. Oil changes, fluid checks, brakes and tires done on schedule are what stop a small job turning into a big one.

Ohio winters are hard on cars. Road salt eats at brake lines and exhausts, cold mornings find out weak batteries, and potholes knock the alignment out. A check before the first freeze and a look underneath in spring go a long way.

Bring it in for a service and we'll tell you what needs doing now, what can wait, and what it will cost before we start.

The reasons to pick youWritten in general terms so nothing here claims something you don't do. The more specific it gets, the better it works. The truck is the RAM 1500, another of the state's best sellers.

How we work

Earning your trust

Nothing gets done to your vehicle until you've seen the estimate and said yes. If we find something else once the work has started, we call you first.

We explain what's wrong in plain English, show you the worn parts if you'd like to see them, and tell you honestly when a repair can wait.

Good work at a fair price is how a local shop stays in business. It's the only way we know how to do it.

What our customers say

Took the truck in for a shudder nobody else could pin down. They had it diagnosed in an afternoon and didn't charge me for the second look.

Marcus B.★★★★★

Been coming here since my dad did. They tell you what needs doing now and what can wait, which I've never had anywhere else.

Janine W.★★★★★

Fair price on a full brake job and ready when they said. Waiting room's nothing fancy but the coffee's free and the work is honest.
