In their own words

“Dave has always been honest, direct, and upfront. So far, he's repaired my van's charging system, replaced a motor mount, pressure-tested the radiator, and more… Dave is the genuine article — honest, kind, and willing to admit if something is outside his expertise. My wife and I trust him completely with all our automotive work. We recommend him to all of our friends as our go-to mechanic here in the Springs.”

“Professional work, cheap pricing, and most importantly the mechanic knows what they are doing. The lady working the front of the store was very kind and personable. I brought my own parts and they accommodated that without spiking the price up like other shops/dealerships… This place is the complete opposite. Highly recommend.”

“I was in Colorado Springs for a vacay when I noticed my Jeep Wrangler was overheating… He gave me two options to fix it and we went with the cheaper option which thankfully worked! He was so understanding, helpful, as well as a decent and honest person. They dropped everything to make sure I was able to make it safely home. Will forever be grateful for these people!”

“Finding an honest mechanic is sometimes like striking gold… Had I followed through without getting Dave's opinion I would've been set back at minimum $1–2000. Dave took me in as a walk-in, reviewed the problems the other mechanics diagnosed and said there was nothing wrong with those items, pinpointed the actual problem, and reviewed my check engine light giving me peace of mind. I would 110% recommend this shop.”

“We had Dave's Automotive Repair do several mechanical upgrades and a few driver modifications to our 1928 Ford Model AA Truck and he did phenomenal craftsmanship on the work. We are very pleased and the cost of labor and parts was very reasonable.”

“Dave's a really nice guy, he knows what he's doing and he's honest. Took my daughter's Trailblazer in for a new control arm and Dave quoted me for way less than 4 other places in town and he was finished before the end of the day.”

“This shop does excellent work and they really take care of people. I've recommended Dave to a lot of coworkers and all of them were well taken care of. It's refreshing to see a mechanic that wants to help people.”

“HONEST, FAIR, and CHEAP!! Dave is the best mechanic I've ever been to! Got me in quick when I needed it and did quality work. He cares about the customer and isn't pushy… Prices are better than big name shops and at the end of the day this is the place you want to support.”

“After inspecting the vehicle he determined that the repair I wanted done wasn't needed and further investigated to find the issue… he determined that the vehicle was fine and didn't charge me any money whatsoever. How can you not give 5 stars to an honest mechanic who actually cares about his customers?”

“A gentleman, I'm assuming was Dave, came out and inspected the truck thoroughly… He re-routed the wires and the problem was fixed. I asked for the cost of the repairs, and he refused payment. Finding businesses with that kind of integrity and compassion is rare.”

“Dave and his team work great, very quick and well done. They installed an aftermarket clutch kit on my Focus and it turned out awesome. Drives great. Whenever I called, I was always able to get ahold of someone in the shop, which was a plus.”

“We were visiting Colorado Springs for the weekend and were greeted Monday morning by a van that just wouldn't. These guys stopped what they were doing to help us out. They quickly got us back on the road for a reasonable price. We appreciated their hard work and honesty.”

“This is the mechanic you hope you find. This is the mechanic that makes you want to say 'I know a guy.' Old school, tries to fix instead of just immediately replace… Got my car back on the road about 4 times when I really needed it, for as good a price as he could possibly give me. TALENTED MECHANIC!”

“Been using this shop for over 20 years, and only refer this shop to my actual friends. Literally the only mechanic I trust besides myself. Prices are always accurate and fair, and most importantly, I've never had to bring my car back for improper repairs.”

“I've had so many bad experiences with various mechanics in town that have tried to rip me off because they assume I know nothing about my car, but Dave has always been extremely transparent. He does good, quick work, and for as long as I'm living in Colorado Springs, I won't go to another mechanic.”

“Went here after having bad experiences at Firestone. Dave was able to do the repair for significantly less than I was quoted elsewhere, and quickly. Will be going here for anything wrong with our cars going forward. Highly recommend!”
