Start a Career with 55 Tires and Service
A-Level or B-Level Automotive Technician - $75,000-$120,000/year - NO WEEKENDS - Real Repair Work
Tired of working weekends? Tired of micromanagement, disorganization, or shops that promise volume but deliver slow bays and dead time?
At 55 Tires & Service, we run a busy South County shop Monday-Friday only. No weekends since 2020. Our techs are home for dinner every night and stay productive on real repair work.
We are a family-run shop established in April 1997, and we have built a strong repeat customer base by taking care of people the right way for years. We stay busy, handle real repair work, and very rarely have a slow day.
We work on all makes and models with a strong mix of domestic and Asian vehicles, plus diesel and some euro.
This is not basic maintenance. We handle real repair work including:
- brakes and suspension
- drivability and diagnostics
- timing work and camshafts
- heater cores, evaporator cores, and HVAC
- engine, transmission, differential, and PTU jobs
- full general repair
A lot of our customers trust us to leave the vehicle with us, let us determine what it needs, and take care of it properly. That trust creates strong workflow and real repair opportunities for a productive technician.
