About Zabor Automotive:
Pull into any of our shops — Rockdale, Crest Hill, or Naperville (coming soon) — and you'll notice the same thing: people who actually like working together. We're a family-owned, ASE-certified team that handles everything from daily drivers to European imports, and we back every repair with a 24-month/24,000-mile warranty. We share tools, share laughs, share what we know, and nobody gets left fighting a stubborn diagnosis on their own. We like to keep things light, we keep each other honest, and we hold a high bar on every job that rolls out the door. If you do great work and want to be part of a crew instead of just another number, you'll fit right in.
Our Mission:We exist to earn lifelong trust—with our customers, our employees, and our community—by delivering exceptional automotive care with honesty, transparency, and genuine respect.
We are currently looking to fill all positions for our coming soon, Naperville location. Training will occure at our Crest Hill location prior to starting.
