Donovan's is a trusted local business and we would take our vehicles to them for any cause (both…read moreDonovan's Express and the main location in Pleasant Ridge). When they discovered an additional issue right before they returned my vehicle, they did not charge for labor and even gave a discount on the part. When my AC recharge did not work the first time due to an underlying issue discovered later, they also did not charge for the failed AC recharge. The workers are always kind, patient, and explain issues thoroughly and carefully. They never act hurried or impatient, and when an issue arises on their end, they are apologetic and strive to make things right. My father listened to the Dale Donovan car show on Cincinnati's local radio station for years. We love supporting this local business! Shout out to Wayne for being so sweet and kind.

I posted in a local pleasant ridge group for recommendations for mechanics along with specific issues my car was having. Multiple people recommended this shop, but it did not have immediate availability. Kyle Donovan commented on my post accessing the issue as well as offering different solutions for it.

Todd helped me and it took just under three hours so much sure you plan some time. They have a small waiting room with two tvs. It was $575 for replacement of two parts of the muffler. Unfortunately I did have to take it back due to a sound when going over bumps but I was able to bring it back next day and it was fixed! They are currently going thru renovations but very open! You can see your car getting repaired and downside is you can hear EVERYTHING. Plenty of parking in their private lot which takes up a whole corner in Covington. Would I come back for work? Yes I probably would.

I'm donating this car to someone in need and when I told Todd at the service desk that, he called the mechanic to come up and tell me what absolutely needed to be done vs. what was a "nice to have". They have great service at a fair price, and are customer-focused. And the place is immaculately clean. They are first-come first-serve so get there early for faster turnaround. Kudos to Todd and the whole team.

We managed to get towed there after calling around and they said they'd try to look today if possible but likely Monday. They called us an hour before closing and told us a walnut had gotten into our car causing the issues!! We were able to pick up the car before the weekend and they ended up not charging us. Thank you for the AMAZING customer service!! Any time we have car issues, we will go out of our way to come back here. Special shoutout to Andrew - thank you again!!!

Twice when my engine light went on he ran a test on the engine within a couple of minutes, identified the problem didn't charge a diagnostic fee. The first time he said it was a computer glitch & said to come back if it came on again & it never did come back on. Who gives free diagnostics and is so honest now a days? As a single elderly woman I really trust & appreciate Gavin & his service. I have an older car & have had it in for several things through the years & they have always repaired & completed it on the same day I brought it in for less than others. They keep my car running in tip top shape reliably. Thank you so much Gavin, appreciate your service so much & your excellent crew!

They got me back on the road with no problem and none of that pressure that other places sometimes put on you to get other (usually extraneous) things done. The location was convenient for me as well. They said they do most everything when it comes to vehicles, so I'll more than likely be back next time I need a repair.
