Old Souls Garage is an independent shop in Brodhead, Kentucky, with 8 years of Toyota master training (hybrid systems included) and 10 years of ASE master certification behind the tools. Toyota hybrid service, complex electrical diagnosis, and the check-engine light that keeps coming back are the three specialties — the problems other shops send away. Plus everything else mechanical: engine, brakes, suspension, exhaust, cooling, AC and heat, drivetrain. A real independent that fixes what dealers charge $3,000 for. Call (606) 386-0997 to get on the schedule.
The name "Old Souls" means something. It's the way shops used to run: the torque wrench clicked at the right spec, the rotors got measured instead of eyeballed, the mechanic knew your car and remembered what it needed next time. The repair got done right the first time — because that's what the shop down the street from your house used to do as a matter of course.
That care, applied to modern vehicles — including the ones most independents won't touch. Toyota hybrid high-voltage systems require specific dealer-level training, and we have it. Complex electrical faults — parasitic draws, BCM issues, wiring-harness work — are where a scan-tool-only shop gives up and we dig in. And "the check-engine light that keeps coming back after three other shops cleared it" is exactly the sentence we hear most from new customers. Right here in Rockcastle County, serving Brodhead, Mount Vernon, Berea, Richmond, London, Somerset, and the rest of central / southeastern Kentucky.

Toyota master certification is not a one-day class. It's years of dealer-specific training on Toyota systems, engines, transmissions, hybrids, and the dealer-level diagnostic tooling that goes with them. ASE master certification is eight hands-on exams, renewed every five years. Between them, it's roughly two decades of training that tells you how to do the job right — and the discipline to actually do it that way, every time.
