Bruce is amazing! I brought in my Mazda for battery/alternator issues and he checked everything out and said the alternator was good and it was likely the battery but still fully charged it for 4 hours for me. He was very kind and knowledgeable when explaining everything to me and saved me a lot of money. Mechanics like Bruce simply are a dying breed and he has my business for life!

Bruce is the most honest mechanic I have met. He did not take advantage of my lack of knowledge or the fact that I am a woman. For a new alternator, the charge was $419 (tax included). The Nissan dealership was going to charge me $740. His shop is small and located near First Magnitude. Definitely go to him if you want good work at a reasonable price.

I had a very good experience with Hurricane. I needed a new alternator on my Honda Pilot and went to the Honda dealership. They wanted $1000 to replace it. I called Hurricane and spoke to Bruce, he quoted me $397 Plus tax. I went back to the dealer, picked up my car and took it to Hurricane. Bruce said that he was booked up thru the next afternoon and would try to take care of it then. The next day I received a call from him that my car was ready. Bruce is a very knowledgeable and honest person. I would recommend him and Hurricane to anyone that needs repair work. They are much more honest than the dealer.

Bruce delivers a great job at a fair price and he stands by his work. If your looking for an honest mechanic look no further then Hurricane Alternator. Tell them Nick sent you.

Great, honest service! Thought we needed a new alternator. Brought our car in to Hurricane, where we we told our alternator was fine and we only needed a new battery. Replaced our old battery and cleaned our terminals/applied protectant for a very fair price. Car is running like new. Would recommend Hurricane 100 out of 100 times!

My family still living in Gainesville only ever goes to Hurricane for auto work. I still go back when I go back to Gainesville after having moved away over 15 years ago. They've always taken good care of us and treated us right!

Feels like its been there awhilr and its impressive seeing a business stay open off to the side despite Gainesville's slow but inevitable gentrification.
