I tried this auto shop on a Sunday after calling a week prior for an appointment. The fact that…read morethey are open on Sundays is a blessing. The waiting area is clean and the staff was professional. When I made my appointment it was Joe that scheduled me and when I arrived for my appointment it was Sade that checked me in. I didn't wait for my car but they completed the work as if I was there waiting on it. Upon completion they called to let me know that my car was ready. I had the state inspection, parking bulb replaced, headlight restoration, and windshield wipers replaced. I mentioned all of this to one of my neighbors and she mentioned that they are under new management As of right now, I say give them a try if you need a mechanic or inspection. Pricing seems fair and the team seems polite. (10/19/2025)

I went in on a Sunday and ordered 2 new tires. The employee who ordered the tires for me was great…read moreand told me the tires would arrive Wednesday. Because I rely in my vehicle for everything, I immediately shifted my schedule around to accommodate. The next day I received a call from a shop employee named David who told me my tires would be in the next day and then proceeded to recommend services that I needed. After receiving that great news I adjusted my schedule and looked forward to getting my car sooner. The next day I called the shop to check on my car and was told my Chris that my tires wouldn't be arriving until Wednesday and that that's been the note in my file since Sunday. I explained that an employee named David called me and told me that my tires would be done on Tuesday and he explained that he couldn't see any reason why David would have called me and told me that. Chris offered a discount as an apology while the phone. I picked up my car when it was ready, and the same employee David came up to my husband and told him I had 2 bent front rims. I found it very interesting that he didn't bring up my bent rims when we were on the phone on Monday and that my rims were suddenly bent after I complained about the employee lying to me over the phone. The discount Chris offered over the phone was also not given at the time of payment. Looking into possible legal options now. If you want employees calling you and lying about when your service is done, go here. If you want people being shady with your vehicle, go here.

I simply will not bring my car anywhere else! The honest, dependable service here is what every…read morebusiness should strive to provide for their customers, especially in the auto industry! As soon as my free warranty services were up from the dealership, I have been taking my car to Caton's Auto Repair. They have NEVER made me feel like they are trying to upsell unnecessary products or swindling me by saying my car needs repairs when everything is fine. They also go back to look at your records, so if you aren't sure what maintenance services you need at your current mileage, they will ensure everything is done. The employees are always incredibly courteous and knowledgeable. With the thousands of dollars that I'm sure I've saved from not flushing my money away to a dealership that would nickel and dime me, the value of honesty and trust cannot be beaten. I enthusiastically recommend getting all your car needs taken care of with Caton's!

You get a comprehensive check list with your oil change and while they will make recommendations, nobody will push you to add additional services. Prices have been reasonable in my opinion and I always know my vehicle will get properly taken care of. One time my tire pressure sign came on and since I was just around the corner I asked them if they could take a look and they were able to squeeze me in within 15 minutes, great service all around! Scheduling is always easy over the phone and their night drop off is seamless. If you prefer you can have them send all service communications through text and then approve or reject additional work online. Highly recommend Gabe's!

Honest and professional! Friendly and trustworthy. Please consider using them. Thank you!read more

Extremely bad work and shoddy parts…read more I had them install new brakes in the summer of 2024. By the winter of 2025, the brakes were wobbling. Apparently the brakes they installed were faulty (the rotors warped), but they still charged be $200 to replace them even though they were still under warranty. That would be fine, I guess, if they had done a good job or used good parts the second time, but it's been 2 months and my brakes are grinding and slipping. Apparently, the pins, the rotors, the pin boots, the pads, and a few other parts are so low quality that they're falling apart already. At this point, I'm not trusting my car to these guys again. I took my car to the mechanic near my work in Fredericksburg and paid him $500 to just do the job correctly. I deeply regret not taking my car to him in the first place, as he would have done a good job, stood by his work, and I wouldn't be out $700 for bad work and bad parts. Do yourself a favor and go to a different mechanic.
