I was referred to this shop, by my long time oil change facility. The staff was extremely…read moreknowledgeable, professional and very spot on with the diagnosis. No up selling, no nonsense, very honest. I would have normally taken my vehicle to my dealership, but I've lost all faith in the Service Dept., and the Tech in mis diagnosing causing me several hundred more dollars, as well as taking it elsewhere to find out it was just a bad battery and not the starter which the dealer missed and charged me for a new starter. Gateway, diagnosed and fix the issue in 4 hours. I highly recommend them. While not a big fancy facility, these gentlemen are honest, and fair. Excellent work!!!!

Frank holds high standards of service, knowledge and hard work and he insists on the same for his employees. His prices are fair, he's honest and his education is extremely impressive. After I totaled my car frank helped me choose one without hesitation (probably because I kept bringing my choices to him only to have him say NO YO ). After more than a decade of trusting my car and safety with Gateway and thanks to Franks help ... I finally purchased a new car and it Looks like I'll be a loyal customer forEVER The shop is open Mon thru Fri and his prices remain very fair. END UPDATE For years I have been able to rely on and trust the staff of Gateway Automotive. Today when my car died outside of the library I called the shop and Ryan assured me that if I towed it over they would take care of it so I did. I was immediately greeted by the staff and Ryan went straight to work. The problem was diagnosed and repaired in less than 2 hours. He was direct, accurate and incredibly helpful. I am grateful for his hard work. The entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I ALWAYS recommend this shop for the fact that they've never been wrong and have always been honest. Many times I've sent my friends to Gateway for second opinions and nearly every time their diagnosis was on point and way more affordable. It's hard to find an honest mechanic in this town... Gateway fills that need

I had a really great experience with DKN Body Shop. Unfortunately, my car was involved in a…read morehit-and-run, and I was left with damage to my front bumper. I started shopping around for different quotes and also looked at reviews for different body shops. DKN Body Shop had great reviews and most importantly gave me the best price compared to all the other quotes I received.They repainted the entire front bumper and repaired some of the cracks that were already on the car when I bought it. I'm very happy with how everything came out. The color match is pretty accurate, and the bumper looks so much better than it did after the accident. The customer service was excellent, and I honestly have nothing negative to say about my experience. Vik, the owner/manager, was very nice, professional, and easy to work with. He made the whole process feel comfortable and straightforward. I would definitely recommend DKN Body Shop to my family and friends. If you're looking for a body shop with fair pricing, great customer service, and quality work, I would definitely recommend giving them a try!

Since this issue was a recall on my car before, I went back to Tracy Volkswagen and asked them to replace it again since it is a VW warranty issue. The service manager at Tracy VW refused to honor the second repair on the clockspring issue and wanted me to pay full price. When I called Bob for help he referred me to VW Merced for this issue. It was such an awesome referral because VW Merced contacted VW and I still had 5 years left on my recall for the clockspring. It was fully covered! When that issue was taken care of, I needed my brakes replaced and I took my car to Bob. They did an awesome job and even found another issue that I wasn't aware of. I'm so grateful to have a trustworthy place to take my VW in so close to where I live. Thanks, Bob!
