    Fix It Forward places the highest priority on safety when repairing vehicles. We ensure that each vehicle is fixed according to the factory specifications and proper procedures before it is returned to the road.   Our services include routine repairs, such as oil changes, brakes, and modern-day maintenance. However, we cannot handle significant engine repairs like head gaskets, tire work, transmission overhauls, or replacements. We evaluate each vehicle individually, and after the initial diagnosis, we decide whether we can carry out the necessary repairs. We do not perform cosmetic restorations like bodywork or paint.

    Our Story in Pictures: Fix It Forward's Journey to Make a Difference

    We assisted Mr. W of Deland by repairing the speed sensor on his 1996 Chrysler Town & Country. Now the vehicle is running perfectly again.

    We got his car running again with a new clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing, fresh oil change, and a coolant flush.  Now he can concentrate on his studies and not on car problems.  Thank you to all our donors that make this possible.
