LeadQuasar lists 1,135 auto repair shops across 19 US states. Nearly every record has a phone number and 93% have a website, but only 6% (65 records) have an email address, so the phone is how you reach these shops. It is a modest list, strongest in Texas, California, New York and North Carolina.
What this list is, and what it is not
These are business listings: the shop's name, phone, website, address and Google rating. About 18% of records (200) include a contact name. For the rest you are calling the shop, and at an independent garage the person you want, the owner, is often the one who picks up or is within shouting distance of the phone.
With 1,135 shops, this is not a national directory of every garage. It is a starting list for a regional rep, a parts distributor covering a few metros, or a software company testing its pitch on independent shops.
How a repair shop runs its day
Independent repair shops are usually owner-operated, often with the owner doing the service writing, the ordering and some of the wrenching. The day has a rhythm:
- Early morning is drop-off. Customers are at the counter, phones ring, and nobody wants a sales call.
- Mid-morning to early afternoon is diagnosis and repair. The bays are full and the owner is ordering parts.
- Late afternoon is pick-up. The counter gets busy again.
The best window is usually late morning, once the drop-offs are written up, or right after lunch. Keep the first call to a minute. A shop owner who is losing bay time to a phone call will not remember your name.
What shop owners actually buy
The things that sell to repair shops tie directly to bay hours and car count:
- Parts and supplies, where speed of delivery matters as much as price
- Diagnostic tools and scan tool subscriptions
- Shop management software: estimates, invoicing, digital inspections, parts ordering
- Marketing: Google profile management, review requests, reminder texts, local ads
- Extended warranty and financing programs they can offer customers
- Fleet and B2B referrals: local businesses with vans that need regular service
- Equipment: lifts, tyre machines, alignment, air compressors, and the servicing that goes with them
Pitch the outcome in shop terms: more cars through the bays, fewer comebacks, faster parts. Owners think in cars per day, not in features.
Reputation matters here
918 of the shops have a Google rating, and the average is 4.57. That is a strong score for an industry where customers tend to arrive already unhappy about a breakdown. Shops with good ratings protect them. If you sell marketing or review tools, show how you help them keep that score while bringing in more cars.

Several states come down to one city. Charlotte has 118 of North Carolina's 119 shops. Indianapolis has all 81 of Indiana's. Detroit has 49 of Michigan's 50. Other big clusters: Los Angeles (69), Dallas (52), and Phoenix, Jacksonville, Chicago and Philadelphia with 44 each.
The few emails sit in New York (23), New Jersey (14) and California (11). Outside those three states, plan a phone-only campaign.
