Customer Reviews
Three years ago, when I moved to Niagara Falls, I started looking for a trustworthy mechanic. For three years, I couldn’t find a shop that truly knew what they were doing. Finally, I found Dave Auto, and I couldn’t be happier. They do excellent work, their prices are fair, and from now on I don’t have to waste time looking for another mechanic. I can leave my car with them knowing it’s in safe hands. They are knowledgeable, honest, and always take the time to explain everything. Even though my English isn’t very good, they always welcome me with a smile, treat me with respect, and make me feel comfortable. Thank you for your great service. I highly recommend Dave Auto to anyone looking for a reliable and professional mechanic. They are truly excellent at what they do.
Excellent, honest service. I’ve had nothing but good experiences here. The mechanics are knowledgeable, upfront, and take the time to explain what actually needs to be done—no pressure, no unnecessary upselling. The work is done right the first time, pricing is fair, and turnaround time is reasonable. It’s refreshing to find a shop you can genuinely trust. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable, professional auto service.
Had car issues this morning and called them to see if they could take me in. No openings until next week, but they came out to me to check out the car and see if it was drivable. Turns out, lug nuts were loose on my wheel and they tightened them right up and sent me on my way... Didn't even accept any cash. Super honest and generous guys. Highly recommend.
We were in Niagara from Ottawa and needed a repair to get back home. They were able to fit me in and fix my van in record time! Honest and helpful and just incredibly kind. Really helped me and my family out of a jam. Will always recommend
Our small company fleet of vehicles as well as my personal car are all serviced by Dave and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. It doesn’t matter which of his mechanics are working on the vans, we know that they are good to go whenever they leave the shop. Dave is great at communicating as well as trying to fix the root problem while keeping costs as reasonable as possible.
First time trying this shop and i had an amazing first time experience! The staff were all very friendly and they fixed my cars problem quickly and for a great price! 10/10 I will be returning for future car issues.
A couple of weeks ago I took my car to Dave's for an exhaust issue. Jeremy even came in early to make sure the car would be ready for me asap. I'm very happy and satisfied with their work and highly recommend.
