What is Value?
Is it when something is the cheapest? Or is it what you get for your money. When it comes to the automotive industry here are some thoughts to consider:
  • In order for a shop to do things cheaper what are you giving up?
  • Does the shop have experienced professionals with ongoing education that are compensated properly or people just learning by trial and error on your car?
  • Do they carry garage liability insurance in case something happens?
  • Do they constantly update their information sources and equipment to keep up with today’s technology?
  • Do they use the best quality parts or just the cheapest they can buy?
  • How long and how far do they stand behind their work?
  • Do they offer above and beyond services like shuttle service, loaner cars, service reminders, car care clinics, courtesy checks?
What is value to you?

Customer Testimonials

Not good! :(

After the past two experiences with Dave's, I don't think that we will be returning. The customer service is great. However, I feel that they are not being completely honest. They said that we needed ...

Stands by their work

May 3, 2012 5:59 am

One of the best times to see how good some one is when it comes to how well they stand up for the work that they do. I believe that it would be hard to beat Dave's here, maybe Sears' guarantee of Craf...

Belt Squeal

Took my 90 GMC Jimmy in for a fuel leak, the part needed was NLA. Dave's found someone to rebuild the fuel line. They did not stop until they figured out how to fix it, this is the reason for the 5 st...

I like this place

Mar 28, 2012 5:53 am

As soon as I walked into their main room, I felt good with the place. Some waiting rooms of mechanics are uncomfortable, but not this place. I really liked all of the people that I interacted with a...

Excellent service

Mar 23, 2012 6:33 pm

Friendly fast and honest

Mar 16, 2012 4:12 pm

Started going to Dave's after reading the good reviews and they still apply. They were $300.00 cheaper than dealership to replace the rack & pinion. Have found them honest, reliable, friendly, prompt ...
