Obsessed With
The Details.

MV Automotive & Performance is led by Darrell Keeton and Hunter Keeton — diesel and semi mechanics with over 43 years of combined experience getting the job done right in Hohenwald.

From diesel diagnostics and heavy-duty semi work to full engine builds and daily-driver maintenance, every job gets the same scrutiny — torqued to spec, tested on the road and backed by people who drive what they build. Built right. Built to perform.

  • Measured, not guessed

    Every build is inspected, tested and road-verified before it leaves.

  • Done once, done right

    OEM-spec procedures, quality parts, no shortcuts.

  • Straight answers

    Clear estimates, honest advice and no surprise invoices.

“Needed my brakes and rotors done on my truck. They said when it could be done and it was done as expected. Really great service when you need it most.”
Todd HolmesGoogle Review
“Needed a company close to Centerville to work on my exhaust — dropped my truck off on Wednesday afternoon and it was ready by Thursday afternoon. Easy to work with and would definitely use them again for anything I can't do myself.”
Nate PenningtonGoogle Review
“They have worked on all of our vehicles, from my husband and sons' diesel work trucks to our gas vehicles and even our lawnmower. They have always done a good job. We are car people and care about our vehicles, and trust MV with doing any repairs on them. Cannot recommend them enough.”
Kelly HornerGoogle Review
“Very fast service. I dropped it off after lunch unsure of the issue I had with my truck, and they had it fixed and ready to go within a couple hours. Great communication.”
Kyle BoboGoogle Review
“Friendly people, honest, and got a few things on my truck knocked out — but most importantly the AC is blowing ice cold again! Will be where my vehicles go from now on.”
Glenn RockholtGoogle Review
“Last year I had a shop replace the brakes and rotors on my Ford Taurus SEL (V6). On this specific car, it's very important that the rotors are installed and lined up correctly — if they're not, it can cause vibration, uneven braking, and premature wear. Huge thank you and praise to MV Automotive & Performance for their hard work, extremely fast service, and for knowing how to service this car properly. Highly recommend!”

“Was in Hohenwald, TN for a family visit from California. Arrived with some issues on our diesel pusher and couldn't find a place willing or able to work on our motorhome in a timely manner — everyone either didn't have the time or the equipment for a Cummins motor, or wasn't available for 20+ days. We took our motorhome to this place and Erika and Billy were AMAZING — it was ready 2 days after we dropped it off. They fixed the turbo sensor, changed fuel filters, recharged the AC, and changed the air damper for $1826.78, which I thought was a reasonable price for the time and service. I HIGHLY recommend this place. Only about 5 minutes from downtown Hohenwald.”

“Great people, overall very impressed and grateful for their work. Would highly recommend them if you're tired of dishonest mechanics.”
