(WorldFrontNews Editorial):- Indianapolis, Indiana Jun 3, 2026 (Issuewire.com) – GearSteady Garage, a long-term operator building a network of trusted independent auto repair shops, has acquired Discount Auto Repair Inc., a family-owned, full-service automotive repair shop serving Indianapolis and surrounding communities since 2012.

Discount Auto Repair becomes GearSteady’s fourth location, joining Don & Joe’s Auto Service, Newnum and Sons Garage, and Grewal’s Automotive. The shop will continue operating under its current name, with the same team, same location, and same service standards customers have trusted for more than a decade. Existing warranties, including the NAPA “Peace of Mind” Warranty, will continue to be honored.

Founded in 2012, Discount Auto Repair has built a strong reputation for honest, professional auto repair. Its ASE-certified technicians bring more than 50 years of combined experience, specializing in electrical work, transmission rebuilds, brakes, preventative maintenance, and repairs for foreign and domestic vehicles.

GearSteady’s buy-and-hold approach is focused on preserving strong local shops while providing the operational systems, financial management, tools, and leadership support needed for long-term growth. Unlike short-term consolidation models, GearSteady acquires shops with the intent to operate them for decades while protecting the people, culture, and reputation that made them successful.

For customers, the day-to-day experience will remain the same: the same trusted technicians, the same service advisors, and the same commitment to quality automotive care.
