New Automotive Shop Opens in Westchase

After spending almost 20 years in the customer service business, Jason Benintendi had a desire to open his own business.

So after living in Tulsa, Okla., for almost his entire life, Benintendi relocated his family, including wife, Carla, and two children to Tampa. The family opened the doors on their new business Christian Brothers Automotive on Wednesday at 12949 Race Track Road.

"We look forward to greeting each and every customer and personally tending to their questions and concerns,” he said. “We believe in what Christian Brothers Automotive stands for and want to reach out to our community and provide a high level of customer service—which has been my background for many years.”

The couple saw their friends in Texas open and operate their own franchise and thought they could take on the challenge. Jason and his wife, Carla, are co-owners of the Christian Brothers location.

Christian Brothers Automotive boast a brand that is committed to "honesty and integrity." Opened in 1982, Christian Brothers strives to offer personalized service with a touch of luxury.

The new Westchase location is the second shop to open in Florida.

Situated in Westchase near the intersection of Race Track Road and Countryway Boulevard, the nearly 5,000-square-foot location will include nine service bays, as well as an upscale lobby with a home-charm decor that features leather couches, decorative lighting, artwork and hardwood floors.

Christian Brothers Automotive also provides consumers with a courtesy shuttle both to and from work and home while their car is being serviced. In addition, customers who wish to wait in-shop for their vehicle can enjoy free Wi-Fi in the comfortable lobby.

All Christian Brother Automotive’s facilities are staffed with automotive service excellence (ASE) certified technicians.

“Christian Brothers Automotive is committed to providing only the highest standards and honest business practices to our customers,” Benintendi said. "Local residents will truly see that Christian Brothers Automotive is the light in the community where they can trust and depend on us for their automotive needs.”
