Great guy very funny will come by again to chat…read more Took my car in for a diagnostic and repair, and honestly couldn't be happier. The team was upfront about pricing before touching anything, explained exactly what was wrong in plain English, and had it fixed same-day. No upselling, no surprise charges on the final bill -- just honest, efficient work. The shop was clean, the staff friendly, and my car's been running great since. Rare to find a repair shop this transparent and reliable. Highly recommend to anyone in the area needing trustworthy service. H U

I believe this is my 3rd-4th time, having brought vehicles to D&E Auto Repair, for inspections…read more.. And it's been a pretty easy breeze each time. So from my times here, I can say that the staff members have all been very attentive & easy to talk to, (ask questions) & knowledgeable. They all seem to work seamlessly together & be on the same page, which definitely seems to speed up any possible wait times. I am always pleased with how smooth and quick the process is and I'm back on my way again. Also, knowing that I won't be pressured into all the dreaded unknown upselling (I have always seemed to run into with a few other companies) puts my anxiety in check! I feel more comfortable & confident knowing they will be transparent & straight up in their findings & I won't be price gouged or told some bs, that will leave me feeling uneasy & unsure on my drive home. I would definitely recommend trying them out... whenever the "looking for a good mechanic" topic comes up, I drop my D&E chime in... okay, this is why I don't leave reviews (because being an over thinker is exhausting) it's a lot to read, but I usually won't take the time to do reviews... so if I do, it's been a standout good experience or the complete opposite. I am impressed with D&E & I hope it helps someone else out, if you find yourself one day, frantically flying through all the different auto repair companies on here, you just found one... call or drive over to check. Oh & I also really like & appreciate the technology they use... they send you text message updates and pictures with explanations of what all needs to be fixed as well as the rundown of the entire time spent looking over your vehicle and findings or not- it's PRETTY GREAT!

Most auto shops have to pay at least a dozen employees and pay rent so they jack up their prices or offer services that don't really need to be done. It's just business. But thankfully Jeff doesn't run like these places. He took care of my car's needs efficiently and at a fair price. My fiancé and I are so happy we found our auto mechanic! As far as the negative reviews go, they are unfortunate, but they're also years old... it's absolutely apparent he took them to heart and adjusted himself for the betterment of his business.
