Precision Tune Auto Care has been in the automotive aftermarket business for over 35 years. We know the industry and we make it easy for you to open an oil change/auto repair franchise by giving you the tools you need to begin your business. For entrepreneurs who want to be in business for themselves but not by themselves, we offer the total package. We call this...The Precision Advantage.
Precision Brand
Precision Tune Auto Care is a recognized leader in the automotive service market for a good reason—with over 35 years of experience, a proven franchise business model and initiatives that reinforce our Competence-Convenience-Caring auto care proposition—our brand is in position to take advantage of the growing consumer need for a “dealer alternative”.

Our focus on the Competence-Convenience-Caring market position allows us to deliver our services in a way that no other company duplicates. In addition, our concentration on providing a quality service experience has resulted in 85% customer satisfaction, and our marketing and advertising efforts have led us to enjoy an impressive 80% consumer awareness in our operational markets. Our international franchise partners, representing 80 centers, also enjoy the benefits of our leadership, business model and brand proposition no matter how it is translated.

On-going Communications
PTAC provides ongoing communications to keep you informed and educated on the franchise system and the automotive aftermarket industry using a variety of tools including email, 2-Minute Drill, Zone Action Planner, NewsViews and our intranet site, MyPTZone.com. Our intranet, available 24/7/365, provides you easy and immediate access to company news, advertising artwork, operations bulleting, technical updates, training manuals and to each other via “bulletin board forums”.
Broad Service Offering & Nationwide Warranty
You will be able to provide a wide variety of products and services to consumers including scheduled maintenance, repairs, oil changes and more, along with our 12 month/12,000 mile nationwide warranty.
In the final analysis, it’s all about Customer Loyalty. While no one can be all things to all people, Precision Tune Auto Care can proudly say that we have been providing a total car care approach for years ahead of our competition. We understand that consumers are looking for “their mechanic” and we offer consumers convenience by being in their neighborhoods and delivering a good value from owners who actually know their customers' names. This, we believe, is the right mix to succeed in the automotive aftermarket. After all, we’re not just servicing cars, we’re serving people. This is a relationship business, not a transaction business!
VETFRAN
Precision Auto Care, Inc. is proud to offer the VETFRAN Program for all United States Veterans! Our Veterans Transition Franchise Initiative (VETFRAN) program enables you to pay an initial franchise fee of $10,000 on signing a Franchise Agreement. In addition, our Veterans pay an operating fee of 3.75% of your gross weekly sales (minimum of $150/week) for the first 52 weeks after you open your center.
This program is available to all active-duty personnel eligible to receive an honorable discharge. This program only applies to new centers in certain geographical areas of the United States, and does not apply to re-franchising of centers that were in our system at any time during the 3 years prior to the date of your Franchise Agreement.
Belong to a winning organization focused on one thing – the automotive aftermarket. And while much has changed over the years, the entrepreneurial spirit that launched the company is still alive and well within the Precision Tune Auto Care franchisee community.
