My car is my baby and I love taking it to a place where the people all know what's going on and what they're all talking about. Dave's is such a place. Everyone here is super frea...

As mechanics these guys might be OK, but really watch out for their pricing. For me they charged 100$ (2hrs) for an initial diagnosis. That would be OK if I had not told them exac...

GREAT SERVICE 10/14/2008

I brought my car in for a grindy noise that only happens when i use the brakes (but not always). I talk to Andrew and he checked my car out and found the brake pins were sticking on the left sfront side of my car. So he said all that was needed was to lube the pins and it would fix the problem. He even should me what has happening and why. They didn't try to screw me with a bunch of crap they were honest about it. From now on only daves ultimate will be working on my car. more

Exceptional customer service 9/29/2008

I brought my car in to Dave?s a while ago because of a persistent clunking sound when turning. The technician diagnosed the problem as worn tie rods, which was a reasonable diagnosis. They replaced the tie rods and I picked up my car. After driving if for a while I realized the clunking sound was still present. I eventually brought my car back to Dave?s and they were very accommodating. I did a test drive with the technician and reproduced the problem for him. He was then able to identify the problem and fix it, and I was not charged for the second repair. They even threw in a free oil change. The staff was extraordinarily accommodating and very focused on customer service.\r There are plenty of shady auto-repair places where they charge you for services you don?t need but Dave?s is definitely not one of them. They go out of their way to make sure you are completely satisfied with your experience and they are honest. more

super awesome car repair shop 9/11/2008

So cars and I have a love- hate relationship. I love to get from point a to point b but cars hate me for doing so, therefore, I have spent alot of hours at car repair shops cursing silently because it's just not in the stars to have a car that works. Anyways, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the experience I had at Dave's Ultimate Automotive. It was a kinda major repair and everyone was so great. They have a shuttle service so they will give you a ride and pick you up and the time i spent at the shop was so welcoming and comfortable. They have a computer with internet access and a tv. they were funny, honest, super fast, inexpensive, and friendly. I kinda didn't want to leave. Anywhoo, go there, you'll love it. The end. Pros: Everything Cons: nothing more

One of the best automotive repair cites in town 9/9/2008

After looking at what a burgler did to my car, I had no idea who in town could repair the damage. I called Dave's Ultimate Automotive on S. Congress and immediately was welcomed with kindness and respect as a customer. I explained them my problem and they told me that it would take some extra work but they could do. They gave me and estimate after looking at it and it came down exactly to it when I left with my car stereo and A/C repaired. They appreciated the business and not shy of showing it. I've had a great experience at this location and sure you will too. more

An Auto Shop That Goes Above and Beyond 8/20/2008

First, let me start by saying I'm that girl who brings their car to the shop at 4:00pm on Friday afternoon. After being turned away by a couple of places that said they couldn't deal with the car until Monday, I was desperate for someone to at least look at the vehicle. more

Meh... 8/17/2008

They play that part war with you. From my visit they were very helpful over the phone and in person. They even gave me a rental car while mine was in the shop. But then when it comes to the actual work they continuously charge you for parts that are irrelevant to the problem. I heard good things about the place but I was charged out the @$$ three times and the problem was never actually fixed. You decide... maybe you won't get screwed like I did. more

Great service, conscientous and honest 8/8/2008

These guys fixed an issue that I'm pretty sure was created at another shop. I couldn't be more happy with the service they provided, their concern with getting the job done right, and their work to get me the best price possible on my repair. I'd recommend these guys to anyone. more

Great and helpful service. 8/8/2008

This what you call great customer service at a great price. Most car places try to get over on their customers by charging huge labor fees and not doing a job, but not here. The work done here is exceptionally well. Pros: Good and fast repairs more

Great Place to Take Care of Your Car 8/8/2008

I've come to this place a few times and have had nothing but good experiences. When I go to most car places, I start to have other problems right away when I get something fixed. But here, the only time I need to come back is for an oil change. They also offer great discounts and referall discounts. Everyone is extremely courteous and nice. I even got rides to my house and to work and back to the shop. I will continue coming back to this shop. Pros: friendly reliable discounts Cons: nothing more

SoCo's best 8/8/2008

I can not express how great the service is at Dave's Ultimate Automotive. Each and every time I have brought my truck in to be serviced everyone has been so helpful and courteous. Michelle, Jr. and Andrew are so friendly. I love that I can come in and not feel like they are trying to sell me something I don't need, infact I don't feel like they are trying to "sell" me anything. Michelle is awesome, she explains exactly what the problem is - and in terms that I can understand. She is honest and will tell me what needs work now and what can wait. They even have a shuttle service that was very helpful while my truck was being worked on. I know that when I come to Dave's they will fix/service only what needs to be done and they do it right the first time. more
