Credit Clikiti with a link.* For small agencies and freelancers who sell websites to independent auto shops and used-car dealers. We scanned 174 of their websites: 1% score under 60 out of 100, and 70% leave at least three of the questions drivers ask unanswered. Here is where the winnable work is, which problems to lead a pitch with, and how to show them without days of spec design. Clikiti scanned 174 independent auto shop and used-car dealer websites in October 2026 and checked each one against 11 checks: 7 questions drivers ask before choosing, plus accessibility and speed checks tied to WCAG 2.2 and Core Web Vitals. ## Key findings - Only 29% of the 174 independent auto shop and used-car dealer websites we scanned show any price: a service, a fee, a labour rate or a car. - A typical site answers four of the seven questions drivers ask before choosing (mean 3.7). - The median overall score is 76 out of 100 (mean 76). - The least-answered questions are "Roughly what will it cost?" (29%), "Do you stand behind the work?" (40%) and "Are you qualified?" (47%). - The best-answered are "How do I reach you, and when are you open?" (85%) and "Do you handle my car?" (70%). - By kind of business, the highest median score is 77 (general repair and service), against 76 for tire, brake and quick service, 76 for collision and body and 72 for independent used-car dealers. - 87% fail "Loads in under 2.5 s on a phone" (Core Web Vitals · LCP). - 77% fail "Text contrast passes 4.5:1" (WCAG 1.4.3). - 51% fail "AutoRepair, AutoBodyShop or AutoDealer structured data" (Schema.org · AutomotiveBusiness). ## The questions drivers ask Share of the 174 sites that answer each question on the home page or a page it links to, least answered first. | Question | What we checked | Sites that answer | |---|---|---:| | Roughly what will it cost? | A price shown: a service, a fee, a labour rate or a car | 29% | | Do you stand behind the work? | Warranty stated with its terms | 40% | | Are you qualified? | Qualifications shown (ASE, I-CAR, AAA, OEM, BBB) | 47% | | Do other drivers vouch for you? | Reviews marked up, in a widget or quoted | 47% | | Can I book without calling? | Book, request an estimate or a test drive online | 56% | | Do you handle my car? | Makes named, or all makes and models | 70% | | How do I reach you, and when are you open? | Tappable phone plus opening hours | 85% | ## By type of site | Type | Sites | Median score (0 to 100) | |---|---:|---:| | General repair and service | 55 | 77 | | Tire, brake and quick service | 31 | 76 | | Collision and body | 45 | 76 | | Independent used-car dealers | 43 | 72 | ## Accessibility and speed | Check | Standard | Sites that fail | |---|---|---:| | Loads in under 2.5 s on a phone | Core Web Vitals · LCP | 87% | | Text contrast passes 4.5:1 | WCAG 1.4.3 | 77% | | AutoRepair, AutoBodyShop or AutoDealer structured data | Schema.org · AutomotiveBusiness | 51% | | Images have text descriptions | WCAG 1.1.1 | 25% | ## What this means for agencies For small agencies and freelancers who sell websites to independent auto shops and used-car dealers. We scanned 174 of their websites: 1% score under 60 out of 100, and 70% leave at least three of the questions drivers ask unanswered. Here is where the winnable work is, which problems to lead a pitch with, and how to show them without days of spec design. ### Who is realistic to win Independent used-car dealers are the most winnable clients: the lowest median score (72/100), and 5% score under 60. | Type | Sites | Median score | Under 60 | |---|---:|---:|---:| | General repair and service | 55 | 77 | 0% | | Tire, brake and quick service | 31 | 76 | 0% | | Collision and body | 45 | 76 | 0% | | Independent used-car dealers | 43 | 72 | 5% | ### 5 fixable problems to lead a pitch with 1. **Loads in under 2.5 s on a phone** (87% of sites, build). Fix: Resize and compress the hero image and inventory photos, defer scripts, aim for under 2.5 s on a phone. Pitch: "Your home page takes several seconds to appear on the phone of someone stuck at the roadside." 2. **Text contrast passes 4.5:1** (77% of sites, quick fix). Fix: Raise text contrast to at least 4.5:1 in the theme. Pitch: "Parts of the site are hard to read, and it is a WCAG failure." 3. **Roughly what will it cost?** (71% of sites, content). Fix: Publish starting prices for common jobs (diagnostic fee, oil change, brakes, alignment) or the labour rate; for dealers, a price on every car. Pitch: "The first question a driver has is what it will cost. Your site makes them call to ask." 4. **Do you stand behind the work?** (60% of sites, quick fix). Fix: State the warranty with its terms (months and miles, or lifetime on body work) on the home and services pages. Pitch: "You guarantee your work. The site never says so, so the cheaper shop down the road looks the same as you." 5. **Are you qualified?** (53% of sites, quick fix). Fix: Show the shop's qualifications by name: ASE, I-CAR, AAA Approved, manufacturer certifications. Pitch: "Your technicians are certified and your site keeps it a secret." ### How to show a prospect their problems and a redesign 1. **Lead with their problem, not your services.** Open with one question the site fails, for example loads in under 2.5 s on a phone (87% of sites in this report miss it), and show the exact page where the answer should be. 2. **Put a number on it.** Compare their site with the sector: across 174 independent repair, tire and collision shops and used-car dealers sites, the median scores 76 out of 100 and answers 4 of the 7 questions drivers ask. A number travels further inside the client than an opinion. 3. **Show the fix without days of spec work.** A rough redesign that answers those questions persuades better than a proposal, but it usually costs a designer a day or two per prospect. You can sketch it by hand, or use Clikiti: the scan is free and shows any site's problems in about a minute, and paid plans draft a redesign of the home page from the prospect's own brand, from about $2.33 per pitch. ## Best in class: Joey's Auto Shop Tire, brake and quick service, Des Moines, IA (https://joeysautoshop.com/). Answers 6 of the 7 customer questions tested; passes every speed and accessibility check; overall website score 81/100. Named as a positive example; every other site is anonymous. What it does well: - Tappable phone plus opening hours - Makes named, or all makes and models - Qualifications shown (ASE, I-CAR, AAA, OEM, BBB) - Book, request an estimate or a test drive online - Warranty stated with its terms - Reviews marked up, in a widget or quoted - Real phone visitors see the main content in 1.9 s (Chrome UX Report, 75th percentile; good is 2.5 s or less) - No text fails the WCAG 1.4.3 contrast minimum - Every image has a text description (WCAG 1.1.1) - Clikiti pillar scores of 90 or more: accessibility 100, SEO 100, trust 92 Where it could still improve: - Not found on the home page or the pages it links to: a price shown: a service, a fee, a labour rate or a car ## Method - **Sample:** 174 independent auto shop and used-car dealer websites (55 general repair and service, 31 tire, brake and quick service, 45 collision and body, 43 independent used-car dealers). - **When:** scanned October 2026; published 2026-10-14. - **How:** the questions are read from the served HTML of each home page and the pages it links to. Load time, contrast and image descriptions come from Google Lighthouse (PageSpeed Insights) in a phone and a desktop render, with Chrome UX Report real-user data where it exists. A check passes only when the scan finds it; each check cites the standard it comes from. - **Score:** Clikiti's overall website score (rubric v2): usability 30%, speed 25%, accessibility 25%, SEO 10%, trust 10%. It measures the website, not the independent auto shop and used-car dealer. The questions are reported separately and do not feed it. - **Margin of error:** shares are exact for the sites scanned. Read as estimates for all independent auto shop and used-car dealer websites, they carry a margin of error of up to ±7.4 percentage points at 95% confidence (worst case, p = 0.5, n = 174). - **Privacy:** results are published as aggregates or anonymously. Sites are listed by name in the appendix with no individual results; only the best-in-class example is named with its results. ## License and citation Free to use and cite under CC BY 4.0.

Margin of error ±7.4 points at 95% confidence. ### A1. The research question When a driver needs a repair, or a buyer wants a used car, and looks an independent shop or lot up online, usually on a phone, can they find out how to reach it and when it is open, whether they can book without calling, roughly what it will cost, whether the work or the car is guaranteed, whether the people are qualified, whether it handles their car and whether other drivers vouch for it? Population: Independently owned US auto businesses with one to three locations and their own website, in four groups: general repair and service, tire, brake and quick service, collision and body, and independent used-car dealers. These are the auto businesses a small or mid-size web agency can realistically win as clients. ### A2. Who was studied | Source | What it contributes | Sites | |---|---|---:| | Local search, general repair | Independent general auto repair and service shops found in local search results, city by city | 55 | | Local search, tire and brake | Independent tire, brake, alignment, transmission and exhaust shops found in local search results, city by city | 80 | | Local search, collision and body | Independent collision repair, auto body and paint shops found in local search results, city by city | 45 | | Local search, used-car dealers | Independent used-car dealers found in local search results and dealer listings marked independent, city by city | 43 | Included: - An independently owned business with one to three locations and its own website (not a directory, marketplace or social profile) - Based in the United States - Home page responds and shows the business it claims to be (each home page title was checked before scanning) Excluded: - Carmakers and franchised new-car dealerships - Franchises and chains (for example Midas, Meineke, Firestone, Jiffy Lube, Caliber, Gerber, Maaco, CARSTAR, CarMax, Carvana, DriveTime) and any business with four or more locations or in several states - Body shops owned by a dealer group, and buy-here-pay-here chains - Directories, marketplaces and lead-generation pages (Yelp, RepairPal, CarGurus, Cars.com, AutoTrader) - Parked, placeholder, password-protected or unreachable sites, and duplicates | From list to sample | Sites | |---|---:| | Candidates listed | 245 | | Removed at screening: the site refused automated visitors (40) | -40 | | Removed at screening: no response, or no page served to automated visitors (17) | -17 | | Removed at screening: parked or placeholder (1) | -1 | | Removed at editorial review: template text, a hijacked domain serving unrelated content, and a duplicate of another dealer (4) | -4 | | Cohort | 183 | | Region (US Census) | General repair and service | Tire, brake and quick service | Collision and body | Independent used-car dealers | All | |---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:| | Northeast | 17 | 7 | 10 | 8 | 42 | | Midwest | 13 | 8 | 14 | 11 | 46 | | South | 15 | 13 | 15 | 15 | 58 | | West | 10 | 3 | 6 | 9 | 28 | ### A3. How the sites were read - Pages: The home page, then for each of eight topics (services, prices and specials, inventory, warranty, about, reviews, booking, contact) the best-matching link on the home page. - Speed and accessibility: Google PageSpeed Insights (Lighthouse) on a mid-range phone profile and on desktop, plus Chrome UX Report data from real visitors over the previous 28 days where Google publishes it for the site. - Crawler conduct: One request at a time to each site, at least 400 ms apart, at most nine pages per site; robots.txt is read and obeyed for every page requested; a site that refuses is left out and never retried. User agent: `Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; ClikitiResearch/1.0; +https://clikiti.com)`. ### A4. What was measured | Question | Counts as answered when | Standard | |---|---|---| | How do I reach you, and when are you open? (Tappable phone plus opening hours) | The home page has a tappable phone link, and the home, contact or about page states opening hours (a day and a time range). | Clikiti customer question 1 of 7 | | Do you handle my car? (Makes named, or all makes and models) | Three or more car makes are named on the home, services, inventory or about page, or the site says it works on or sells all makes and models. | Clikiti customer question 2 of 7 | | Are you qualified? (Qualifications shown (ASE, I-CAR, AAA, OEM, BBB)) | A qualification or affiliation is named: ASE, I-CAR or Gold Class, AAA Approved, a manufacturer certification, a parts-network programme (NAPA AutoCare, Bosch, ACDelco), a state inspection station, BBB accreditation or NIADA membership. | Clikiti customer question 3 of 7 | | Can I book without calling? (Book, request an estimate or a test drive online) | A link, button or embedded scheduler lets the visitor book service, request an estimate or quote, or schedule a test drive online. | Clikiti customer question 4 of 7 | | Do you stand behind the work? (Warranty stated with its terms) | A warranty or guarantee is stated with its terms: months and miles, years, or lifetime or nationwide. | Clikiti customer question 5 of 7 | | Roughly what will it cost? (A price shown: a service, a fee, a labour rate or a car) | A dollar price is shown for a named service, a fee or a labour rate, or a vehicle price appears next to a model year (discounts, savings and monthly payments do not count). | Clikiti customer question 6 of 7 | | Do other drivers vouch for you? (Reviews marked up, in a widget or quoted) | Customer reviews are marked up for search engines (Review or AggregateRating structured data), shown through a review widget, or at least two customer testimonials are quoted. | Clikiti customer question 7 of 7 | | Loads in under 2.5 s on a phone (Loads in under 2.5 s on a phone) | Real visitors on phones see the main content within 2.5 seconds (Chrome UX Report, 75th percentile). Where Google publishes no visitor data, the phone lab test is used. | Core Web Vitals · LCP | | Text contrast passes 4.5:1 (Text contrast passes 4.5:1) | No text on the home page fails the WCAG 1.4.3 minimum contrast of 4.5:1, in either the phone or desktop test. | WCAG 1.4.3 | | Images have text descriptions (Images have text descriptions) | Every meaningful image on the home page has a text description (WCAG 1.1.1). | WCAG 1.1.1 | | AutoRepair, AutoBodyShop or AutoDealer structured data (AutoRepair, AutoBodyShop or AutoDealer structured data) | The site describes the business to search engines with AutoRepair, AutomotiveBusiness, AutoBodyShop or AutoDealer structured data. | Schema.org · AutomotiveBusiness | ### A5. The website score Clikiti website score, rubric 2.0.0: a weighted mean of usability 30%, speed 25%, accessibility 25%, search 10% and trust 10%. It measures the website, not the organisation; the questions above do not feed it. Report-card letters: A 90+, B 75+, C 45+, D 30+, F below 30. ### A6. Precision ±7.4 points overall at 95% confidence (worst case p = 0.5, 1.96 × √(0.25/n)); by type: general repair and service ±13.2 (n = 55); tire, brake and quick service ±17.6 (n = 31); collision and body ±14.6 (n = 45); independent used-car dealers ±14.9 (n = 43). ### A7. Quality control - Every home page in the cohort was fetched and its title checked against the listed business before scanning - Detection rules were checked against the evidence they record for a sample of businesses in every group, and revised before the final run - Every published figure is recomputed from the data at build time, and a statement in the text that the data does not support stops the build - Results are published only after automated checks for missing data, anonymity, accessibility of the report itself and the margin of error statement pass ### A8. Limitations - A point-in-time snapshot: sites change, and a site may have improved or declined since it was read. - Only public pages were read: the home page and pages it links to. Inventory search tools, chat widgets and multi-step estimate forms were not tested. - Answers are read from the page as a server delivers it. Content that only appears after scripts run in the browser (some inventory listings, schedulers and review widgets) is not seen, which the study counts as a gap a search engine or a slow phone would also meet. - 57 candidates blocked or did not answer automated visitors and are not in the study; sites behind such protection may differ from those studied. - The study reports what a website shows. It does not judge any repair, vehicle or price, or compliance with any consumer or dealer licensing rule. - Automated accessibility tests find only part of what WCAG covers; keyboard and screen-reader use need a manual audit. - The sample is a structured list of real, independent businesses, not a random draw. Margins of error are given as a guide to precision, not as a guarantee that the results hold for every business in the country. ## Appendix B: businesses in this study Who was scanned, and nothing more: results are shown only in aggregate or anonymously. ### General repair and service (55) -
