Brought in my 2006 ford E150 for steering issues and battery issues they were able to quickly diagnose and figure out what was wrong with the battery/ charging system l. Ended up not being much wrong with steering outside of age of the system. There was an opportunity to sell me hardware that we didn’t need but Mark and team shot me straight and saved me some cash! Overall super transparent and trustworthy shop based on my first experience. Mark was a pleasure to work with and I will be back for any future needs!

Rotors and pads(front). Had parts ready to go and performed work promptly. Journeyman mechanics, knowledgeable office staff. No nonsense no BS! Good coffee in customer waiting room too. Highly recommended!

DONT COME HERE!!!!!!! Long review incoming! I have not been here in a long time. I have to make this review because I continue to find things they did to my vehicles that were either wrong, not properly fixed, or straight out lies. I had a 2013 Highlander where I had to break one of my studs off to get the wheel off. When I brought it to them they told me I had to replace the entire wheel hub because there was no way to knock just the one stud out and that I might as well change the wheel bearing while they were in there. I believe it was like $500 or $600 dollars. Couple years later when long after I decided to start doing my own maintenance and repairs to my own vehicles. I changed the the breaks and rotors on my vehicle. When I looked at the wheel hub I noticed a notch that was speci

The employees were actually very friendly. However the reason for my 3 stars is because I paid $2100 to fix a coolant leak on my Toyota Prius but the leak was not fixed. Long story short, The technician DIAGNOSED my vehicle and sent me a paper work stating I needed to replace my water pump, thermostat, and inverter total $3,400 to fix the water leak. I told them I didn't have that amount, they recommended to fixed the water pump and thermostat. I agreed paid 2100 only to picked up my vehicle the leak is worse. Dropped off the vehicle for a second time and this time I got a different DIAGNOSES : exhaust system or gasket. At this point they advised me to get another vehicle and get rid of my car. I feel like if they had properly DIAGNOSED my vehicle the first time, I wouldn't have agreed to

What a wonderful experience as a new client! I got a quote from a different shop for new brakes and rotors on my 2020 Hyundai Kona that was around $900... Dave's Automotive was able to completely fix my brakes, change my oil, replace all filters, and top off fluids for around $800 with their new customer discount! So easy to work with and responsive, and felt like they were really on my side. I've totally found my new mechanic shop!
