Over 25 Years of Keeping Springfield “Cool”: Absolute Air & Auto Repair Celebrates Legacy and Major Shop Expansion
Springfield, OR – July 6, 2026 – Absolute Air & Auto Repair, Lane County’s go-to full-service auto repair facility since 1999, has expanded to a larger facility on 42nd Street in Springfield, Oregon. Completed in December 2025, the move marks a milestone in a story built on more than 25 years of community trust, hands-on expertise, and a commitment to doing things right.
The expanded facility increases the shop’s capacity to serve light and medium-duty truck owners, fleet operators, and everyday drivers across Springfield, Eugene, Thurston, Coburg, and the greater Lane County region.

A Story Built on Trust, Not Just Transactions
Long before the new building went up, Absolute Air & Auto Repair was already something rare: a shop where customers are greeted by name, repairs are explained before a wrench is ever turned, and every job is backed by a warranty that outlasts most dealerships.
The shop traces its roots to January 1999. The current owners first connected with the business through a Snap-on Tool franchise. When the previous owner needed help with a stubborn diagnostic problem, the two tackled it together. A working relationship formed by 2012. By 2017, Brian and Nicki Griffin had purchased the business outright.
Here, you are not a number; we call you by name. The shop’s team has always said. That philosophy has never changed.
What the Expansion Means for Lane County Drivers
The new 42nd Street facility brings more space, improved workflow, and a better environment for the technicians and service writers who stayed through the transition. Every key team member carried over, preserving the institutional knowledge and customer relationships that define the shop.
For customers, the expansion means:
-
More capacity for fleet maintenance and medium-duty truck repairs
-
The same familiar team, now with more room to work
-
Specialty equipment including the Hunter Hawkeye Elite alignment system, Hunter Road Force Balancer, and MOC Products
-
The same up-to-3-year/36,000-mile warranty on repairs using parts that meet or exceed OE standards
Lane County’s Premier A/C Repair Facility, Now With Even More Capacity
Absolute Air & Auto Repair is the premier automotive air conditioning repair facility in Lane County. The shop services R-134a and R-1234yf refrigerant systems and still have tools to work on older R-12 systems. With summer temperatures rising across the Willamette Valley, this remains one of the shop’s strongest points of separation from both independent shops and area dealerships.
