Wife attempted to back out of spot - power steering was non-existent and the radiator gauge remained level but display near mileage indicator warned A/C OFF due to some thermostat/radiator issue. Team began work upon return to shop that following Monday where I received a follow up call that morning with a preliminary assessment and clarification of our problem - Team ordered the necessary parts related to idle pulley / bracket challenges and kept us informed of updates ultimately receiving the vehicle back early in the day of work being completed as promised - Thank you to your Team ~

This is the best mechanic in Dayton. I've been to several mechanics recommended by friends and…read morefamily, but no one comes even close to Dave Brenner at Kettering-Oakwood Automotive on Shroyer. -I have never had a mechanical problem they didn't fix right the first time. -They are always honest and totally up front about what's wrong and how much they estimate it will cost. They often give me several good options with the pros and cons of each. -They are always reliable and accomodating. -Their rates and charges are the most reasonable that I've been able to find anywhere. It's difficult to find a GOOD, HONEST and RELIABLE mechanic nowadays. Dave Brenner at Kettering-Oakwood Automotive is the best of the best. I recommend them to everyone; and everyone who has gone to Kettering-Oakwood Automotive on my recommendation has been very happy with the service and cost.

Then after another week and an additional fee, I received my vehicle back. Unfortunately, it was still leaking coolant. I finally brought it elsewhere where the leak was fixed in about an hr. I highly suggest you avoid this shop, on top of the inconvenience of my car being out of commission for 3 weeks, the other mechanic said they significantly overcharged me.

That's a lot of time. Please don't trust your car to one of the chains. The price tag and "quick turn around" might seem great, but I promise you, you will end up getting burned. Our cars run so well (one of them is going on 19 years in 2026! Crazy!), and I know the whole staff at Centerville is always looking out for our family and not upselling every five seconds. And honestly, the turn around has always blown my mind at CSC. This parking lot is ALWAYS full, and our cars are ALWAYS ready on time (We call ahead for appointments. I recommend doing the same).

As well, the major issue--our brakes--we had been told not three weeks ago were just fine by another place. Nope! Nothing fine about them. When the ABS light came on and I could see brake fluid leaking, it was pretty obvious that the other shop hadn't even bothered to check them. He will definitely be the only place we take our family cars from now on!
