There are mechanics... and then there are the tired saints standing at the edge of civilization…read moreholding together the fragile emotional ecosystem known as "people who need their car to start tomorrow." Buddha's Garage is the second one. Dave has the energy of a man who has looked directly into the screaming mechanical abyss of humanity and simply sighed, grabbed a wrench, and fixed it anyway. I swear half the vehicles in that shop arrive after being spiritually wounded somewhere else. Other mechanics will look at your engine like medieval doctors diagnosing ghosts. Dave looks at it once, tilts his head slightly like a jazz musician hearing a wrong note, and suddenly knows your alternator was installed backwards by somebody named Tyler in 2019. And here's the wild part: he's honest. Like deeply, suspiciously honest. The kind of honest that makes you uncomfortable because you forgot businesses could still operate without trying to sell you seventeen imaginary emergencies. Dave will straight up tell you cheaper alternatives, better options, things you can wait on, things you DON'T need. I almost wanted to ask him if he understood capitalism. The customer service feels less like a business and more like your truck wandered into a monastery where everyone took vows of kindness and diagnostic accuracy. Meanwhile other shops are out here playing roulette with socket sets: "Hmmm yes, perhaps your issue is... all of the parts." Then Buddha's Garage fixes it in an afternoon and somehow charges you like they still believe in human dignity. Also -- Dave knows an absolutely terrifying amount about vehicles. Not "guy who watches YouTube tutorials" knowledge. I mean ancient-library-hidden-under-the-desert knowledge. The kind where you start explaining the noise your car makes and he already knows the answer before you finish making the sound effect. At this point I'd trust Buddha's Garage with anything mechanical. My car. My lawn mower. A damaged submarine. If NASA called and said a shuttle was making a weird clicking noise, I'd probably hand them Dave's number. I'm going there no matter what. If I move across the state, I'll crawl back on flaming rims like a pilgrim returning to holy ground.

Shawn has been the mechanic for my company vehicles for many years. I met him when he was working…read morefor those other guys. At that time the maintenance expense for my fleet were quickly cut in half due to the quality service under Shawn's direction. When he left those other guys, unbeknown to me, I noticed a sudden decline in turn around and quality. Fortunately I found him at his new endeavor operating as Reithmeyer's Auto Repair, several years ago. Always quality and conscientious service. I would never go anywhere else, and I always recommend Reithmeyer's Auto Repair.

I've been bringing my 2011 vehicle exclusively to Amazing Auto for more than 5 years for all…read moremanners of service: routine oil/filter changes, brake replacement, engine tuneups and of course issues related to wear and tear. My car was around 70k miles the the first time I brought it in according to an old invoice I found, and now it has about 160k miles on it and shows no signs of slowing down but if I do have issues, I know where to take it! I've referred countless friends because Patrick and team have earned my trust, something that's not always easy when looking for a place to get your car worked on. They've earned it by not only fixing/maintaining my vehicle at reasonable prices, but also because they've recommended NOT replacing things that don't need to be on several occasions. In an economy where you'd be apprehensive about a shop upcharging you as much as possible, this kind of honesty is truly refreshing! I won't hesitate to bring my car to Amazing Auto if I need my car fixed, and neither should you!!
