Frequently Asked
Stratford Customers Ask
Is Foreign Automotive worth the drive from Stratford?
Stratford customers save substantial money - typically 25-60%+ less than dealer rates - on a drive that is shorter than going to Toronto for dealer service. Same-week appointments instead of multi-week dealer waits. For exotic-car service we are the only factory-trained option within an hour.
Do you offer a shuttle service for Stratford customers?
Yes. We offer complimentary shuttle service for Stratford customers having scheduled service - though most Stratford customers prefer to leave the car and use the Kitchener-Waterloo day for errands or a meal while their vehicle is serviced. Mention shuttle when you book.
Will my warranty be void if I service my BMW, Mercedes, Audi, or Porsche outside the dealer?
No. Canadian consumer protection law makes it illegal for a manufacturer to void your warranty for using a qualified independent shop, as long as we use OEM-spec parts and follow factory procedures. We document every service to manufacturer standard so your warranty stays intact.
What if I have an exotic car emergency in Stratford?
Call (519) 894-9551 first. We coordinate flatbed transport from Stratford to our shop with operators who specialize in low-clearance and air-suspension vehicles. Avoid roadside assistance services that are not trained on exotics — they can do significant damage during loading.
Do you accept extended warranty claims from Stratford customers?
Yes. We work with most third-party extended warranty companies (Lubrico, GWC, and others) and bill claims directly. We also work with manufacturer Certified Pre-Owned warranty programs.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Routine maintenance: usually within 3–5 business days. Major repairs and exotic service: 1–2 weeks. Diagnostic emergencies: same-day or next-day where possible. Stratford customers can book online or by phone — we keep slots reserved for travel-distance customers.
