Our family has been in the automotive sales and service business in Macomb County, Michigan for over 40 years. We started out as a small used car dealer and collision center in Warren Michigan in 1975. From those humble beginnings we have grown to a multi-location dealership group selling and servicing thousands of vehicles each year.

We also operate Genesis Collision Center in St. Clair Shores, a full-service factory Chevrolet, Cadillac, and Alfa Romeo, repair facility. Genesis Automotive Group was founded on Christian values. Genesis Collision Center is owned by the same family that formerly owned and operated the chain of Collex - Collision Centers, our extensive background in the collision repair business allows us to operate one the largest and most advanced collision repair centers in the area.
