Tribble's Automotive - Reliable, Fair, Car Repair Service

WHAT IS ASE CERTIFICATION? Until the early 1970s, consumers had no way to distinguish between incompetent and competent mechanics. In response to this need, the independent, non-profit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) was established in 1972. ASE's mission is to improve the quality of vehicle repair and service through the testing and certification of repair and service professionals. At present, about 420,000 professionals hold current certifications. They work in every segment of the automotive service industry: car and truck dealerships, independent garages, fleets, service stations, franchises, and more. MEET OUR TEAM OF EXPERIENCED, CERTIFIED TECHS, OWNERS and STAFF We believe that our staff of technicians rival the best anywhere in metropolitan Atlanta, based upon their experience, teamwork and dedication. Moreover, they work very well together and are always available for consultation to one another, when situations present themselves. They truly work as an excellent team and, in our estimation, can resolve even the most problematic challenges.

	DAVID TRIBBLE David Tribble was practically born into the automotive repair business. His father, Charlie, spent his entire career, encompassing more than fifty years, in and around the automotive and oil businesses. As a matter of fact, throughout David's youth, his dad and his mom, Doris, owned and operated service stations located in northern Alabama. In 1999, David decided to open Tribble's Automotive and built his first shop near the corner of Trickum and Shallowford Roads, in Marietta. Since that time, our business has grown so rapidly that we have moved twice and may find it necessary to do so within the near future. David's business philosophy is very simple: give the people the best possible service, an honest deal and a fair price and they'll keep coming back continuously. This has proven to be true, as we have a customer return rate in excess of 97%! David has been an ASE certified Master Technician and has in excess of thirty years, hands-on experience at the dealer and technical levels.
	MICHAEL TRIBBLE The newest addition to our staff is David and Teresa's son, Michael, who has just begun learning the family business. Michael is a student at Sequoyah High School and, while not attending classes, handles the responsibilities of shop steward, in which he performs a large and varied number of responsibilities.
	And last but certainly not least, the mascots:. KARMAN TRIBBLE Although Karman has been around the business as long as most of the "Techs" she is not certified. But that's not why we don't let her work on cars. It's because she is only 7" tall, And she hates it when she chips a nail ! Her main job is to greet every customer and sleep on the mat in front of the door.
	DIESEL TRIBBLE The newest addition to the mascot team, Diesel keeps Karman company when it comes to greeting the desk, greeting the customers and keeping the staff in all-around good spirits.
