At Flanders Automotive, we’re more than just a repair shop—we’re a team of dedicated professionals driven by a mission to elevate the standard of auto service in Decatur, IL. Our story began in 2012 when Cody Flanders, a passionate and skilled mechanic, opened the doors under the name Vanderlaan's Automotive. From day one, Cody’s vision was clear: to create a place where customers could count on honest, high-quality repairs and feel confident that their vehicles were in the best hands. Over the years, our reputation grew thanks to our commitment to doing things right the first time, treating every customer like family, and delivering dependable service with integrity. In 2025, we embraced a new chapter as Flanders Automotive—same team, same values, and the same unwavering dedication to excellence. The name may be new, but the heart of our business remains unchanged. We specialize in a wide range of auto repair services, including thorough vehicle inspections, brake and engine repairs, diagnostics, and routine maintenance. Our ASE-certified technicians bring years of experience and a genuine love for what they do, ensuring every job is completed with precision and care.
