At Speed Auto Repair, we’ve always believed that our role in the community goes far beyond fixing cars. Every time a customer walks through our doors, they’re trusting us with something important—the safety, performance, and reliability of their vehicle. But this October, our work carries an even greater purpose. By participating in the Brakes on Addiction initiative, Speed Auto Repair is proud to join the fight against substance abuse and help strengthen the community we all call home.
The decision to get involved was simple. Addiction affects nearly every family in some way, whether directly or indirectly. It impacts the well-being of our neighbors, disrupts workplaces, and puts strain on local resources. As a business that sees the heart of this community every day, we knew that lending our voice and our support to the cause wasn’t just an option—it was a responsibility.
Why This Cause Matters
Addiction is often thought of as a private struggle, but the truth is it has ripple effects that reach far and wide. The consequences extend beyond the individual and into families, workplaces, and entire communities.
-
Families: Addiction can divide households, creating stress and hardship for loved ones trying to hold everything together.
-
Employers: Substance abuse can make it difficult for businesses to thrive, creating challenges in the workplace.
-
Communities: Addiction impacts safety, health, and the resources available to support those in need.
At Speed Auto Repair, we understand that every effort to support recovery and prevention makes a difference. By giving back, we are investing in the future of our neighborhoods and helping to create a safer, healthier environment for everyone.
Turning Auto Repair Into Action
For the entire month of October, Speed Auto Repair will donate 10% of our total labor costs to organizations dedicated to fighting addiction and supporting recovery. This means that every oil change, brake repair, and engine service our team performs contributes directly to this important mission.
This initiative allows our customers to become part of the movement, too. When you choose Speed Auto Repair for your vehicle’s maintenance or repair this month, you’re not only keeping your car in top condition—you’re also taking an active role in supporting addiction recovery in our community.
Special October Offers
To show our appreciation to customers who stand with us in this cause, we’re offering several special promotions throughout October:
-
FREE brake pads (up to a $79.95 value) with professional installation on most vehicles.
-
$49.97 Full Synthetic Oil Change Special, which includes up to 5 quarts of premium oil, a new filter, and a complimentary seasonal inspection.
-
Tiered service discounts: Save $25 on services of $149+, $50 on services of $499+, or $100 on services of $999+.
These specials are designed to help our customers save while supporting a greater mission. It’s a win-win: you receive the high-quality service Speed Auto Repair is known for, and together we create a positive impact in the fight against addiction.

When you bring your car to Speed Auto Repair, you’re getting more than just a repair shop—you’re getting a partner who values your safety and your community.
Why Local Support Matters
Large national chains often focus only on the bottom line. Local businesses like Speed Auto Repair, however, are part of the heartbeat of the community. Our team lives here, works here, and raises families here. We see firsthand the challenges addiction brings to neighborhoods, schools, and workplaces. That’s why we believe this campaign matters so deeply.
By choosing a local business that gives back, customers make an even greater difference. Your repair dollars don’t just go toward keeping your vehicle safe; they go toward strengthening the very community we all depend on.
More Than Car Care: A Movement for Healing
The slogan “Brakes on Addiction” perfectly captures what this campaign is about—slowing down the damage that addiction causes and giving people the chance to heal and recover. For us at Speed Auto Repair, this isn’t just a short-term project. It’s a reminder that sometimes the most meaningful repairs aren’t made under the hood of a car, but in people’s lives.
By participating, our customers become part of something greater. Together, we’re sending a clear message: our community stands united against addiction, and we will support recovery in every way we can.
How You Can Get Involved
Joining this effort is simple. All you need to do is schedule your regular vehicle maintenance or repair at Speed Auto Repair during the month of October. Every service, big or small, contributes to the 10% donation we’re making to addiction recovery organizations.
