Bosch Auto Service expands with new Houston franchise

Bosch Automotive Workshop Services LLC (Bosch Auto Service) announced its newest franchise location in Houston, Texas, led by Nelson Ramos. 

Ramos, a Houston native with over three decades of experience in the automotive industry, is the owner of CARSTAR Bass Collision collision repair center. Now known as Bosch Auto Service North Houston, Ramos' shop will expand into full-service maintenance and repair, supported by Bosch diagnostics, and future developments will incorporate Bosch ADAS capabilities and its EV platform.

Bosch Auto Service North Houston is the latest product of the Bosch Auto Service program, which focuses on long-term partnerships and growth. Franchisees like Ramos receive access to exclusive Bosch technologies and equipment as well as ongoing operational support and specialized training programs. The shop received a number of upgrades to go with its new name, including a complete interior and exterior rework to reflect the Bosch Auto Service brand.

What people are saying

Nelson Ramos, owner of Bosch Auto Service North Houston, said, "Houston’s growth, diverse vehicle population and shift away from dealership service after warranties make this the right place and the right time for Bosch Auto Service. We’re opening in a part of the city that’s underserved when it comes to trusted service shops. I’m proud to bring something new to the community, and something that’s backed by quality and driven by technology."
