ABOUT US

Anywhere Automotive is a Family Owned Business for Over 35 Years


Founded and managed by Michael Babcock since 1980.

Mike’s experience and willingness began at the young age 17 in San Diego California. It’s funny today when I think of being a business owner & how it all started. My love for cars has always been a part of my life – taking things apart & knowing what to do with them next. I bought my first vehicle, a 1955 Chevy truck, 15 years old, before I had my license. With that truck, I did a complete “ground up” restoration, lifted it 14”, made it 4x4 and showed at the San Diego Car Show. Took Second Overall in the Truck Class.

Mike embodies an entrepreneurial spirit and has established base roots in the automotive industry for over 43 years. He started his apprenticeship with a local tire store in San Diego California. His experience directed him on to Goodyear tire as he worked his way to be one of the best and top producing technicians mastering suspension, brakes, alignment, Cooling systems, air condition, and smog while going to school to become ASE certified in all areas, Mike then worked at several dealerships Nissan, Honda, Toyota, and Chrysler and with all his knowledge he decided to go into business for himself. In 1980, at home in his driveway Anywhere Automotive was actually started.

Anywhere Automotive was officially opened for business first in Southern California and then moving and reestablishing the business to Concord California in December 1988. Starting with a single employee, leasing a 1,000 square foot building, it wasn’t long before more space was needed to expand and hire employees. Anywhere Automotive is a highly successful and progressive automotive business today. Serving all its customers with the highest level of customer satisfactions while providing outstanding service on all your automotive needs for over 30 years!

They do great work and are very honest and wonderful to work with. I had my 4 runner shocks front brakes and rotors and valve cover gasket replaced at anywhere automotive when i picked my vehicle Mike the owner had took the time to clean my engine I have always wanted to do it but was afraid it wouldn’t start afterward, and I have to tell you my engine look brand new i couldn’t believe it. It was so nice to have someone take that extra time to do something so nice not only that, but I have had no problems with my vehicle the owner of the shop is outstanding to work with I told him what I could afford and he made it work. I had very bad luck with Menike in Martinez to many changes in staff at that place bad repairs the shop manager didn’t seem to know what he was doing he would tell me one thing and the next day it was something else. I am very picky about who works on my truck and with the workmanship that anywhere automotive did they will be my shop going forward i trust mike and I was really happy with the work that was done on my 4runner. I would recommend this shop to anyone who wants their vehicle fixed right.

Eureka, I found Anywhere Auto Repair. I called around and talked to a few auto repair shops when my ’05 Dodge Magnum motor blew. It was Mike who (over the phone) made the most sense about troubleshooting the situation and making recommendations, so I decided to go with Anywhere Auto. I’m here to say they did an incredible job replacing my 5.7 liter Hemi with a remanufactured engine. Now my car runs like new! Truly, I ran into the pros from Dover! Thanks Mike (and Lynn) for making this repair as painless as possible and I know I got a great deal overall! These folks know what they’re doing!

Thank You again for taking care of this “old woman”. Between you and Carlos  I feel fortunate that I can call on you two for my auto needs. I’ve been coming to you for over 20 + years now. Since Owen passed I’ve really relied on you two to help me. I appreciate you always being kind and considerate of my issues at hand. Thank you for going out of your way to help me in certain ways. At my age, I call you my “car doctor”. My friends get a kick out of that. I’ve got doctors for everything else. Thank you for sending out the coupons that I get in the mail. They sure do help me out when I need them the most. You’re a gentleman Michael and I sure thank you.

Mike Babcock and Anywhere Automotive was there when I needed them most. No one wants to be left out in the cold with a dead car, but unfortunately this happened to me – and right after I picked up more product for my business, too! I called Mike and he came out to me, fixing my problem and quickly getting me back on the road. I will definitely be using Anywhere Automotive again for any other vehicle needs!

Mike and his team were exceptional! From the time we first spoke on the phone, I could tell what an honest and kind guy Mike was! My car wouldn’t start and so I had it towed down to Anywhere Automotive (same day service when every other shop turned me away). My dad is actually a mechanic and he met me at the shop to discuss with Mike what “the plan” would be. Mike was kind and courteous to my father and they were on the same page. Mike charged me reasonably for diagnosing the issue as well as fixing the problem… in fact; he really cut me a deal! He stuck to the original estimate he gave me even though he did so much more and had to buy one part twice (the first one was defective and the 2nd part cost him more). He got my car back to me the next day all fixed up and running great! His receipt broke down every part and service charge so that I knew exactly what I was paying for. I really appreciated Mike’s work!!! I will recommend him to everyone that I can and will be back for all my future car services!A+++ business ethic and workmanship!!!
