I've been taking my car here for 4 years. It's under new ownership as of 2016 and they made good on a repair done by the previous owners. I have had nothing but good service. For example, the window switches on my wife's Lexus needed to be replaced. The dealer wanted $900 for the part alone. Not only did the mechanic here find a used part, he blended working parts from both switch assemblies to make one working part for us. Total cost was around $300. Add to that that they are all friendly and they remember us when we come in. read more

My husband had been taking his car here for 20+ years when we got together. I started taking my car there and won't take it anywhere else. I'll make this short and sweet: great service, most reasonable prices you can find, old school mechanics. They will go to the junk yard to find what parts they can use. Usually hundreds less in price than if I went to dealership, and I mean that seriously....hundreds. Carmen, the lady that you will speak to on the phone, is the wife of Dave Shaw, who died a few years ago who LOVED working on cars. They decided to keep up the business after he died and still run it the way Dave used to. No computers, nothing fancy. Just great service and they don't try to add in all kinds of things that don't NEED to be fixed just to make a few more hundred bucks. Will never go anywhere else and would recommend them to anyone I meet. Go give them a call. read more

Sooo gonna start off an day these guys are decent but... I will not take my car back, took my car in twice to have the Wheel bearings replaced, when the bearings went out a third time I told my warranty company I am not going back. I took it to Firestone to have them replaced an when they showed me the wheel bearings hub assembly it looked like someone took a hammer and grinder to it them. So fast forward a few months my wheel bearing fails, Firestone at the time didn't know why until they looked at my spindle and knuckle, the damage from how the bearings were put on greatly affected my wheel bearing so now I'm out a car and money from this. read more

I recommend this place to everyone. Very honest and competitive pricing. Got a good referral before I used them in 2004; and referred to friends 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010; everyone spoke highly of their experience and would go back for future issues dispite the drive to the boonies. My experience: needed a new clutch and got quotes ranging from 500-1000; Dave was referred by a trusted colleague and quoted 400. In the phone he gave me options suggesting I could save another $10 - $15 depending on what he saw when he got in there, so it was clear he was not going to gouge me. I walked in to see an old 3 legged dog behind the counter. Dave was great and ultimately proved to be the best decision I could have made. read more

I'll make this short a sweet. Go there. Good pricing, good value, great people. They are old school mechanics. Will treat you right.

Last week I brought my old Chevy Astro for repair here. I was 100 percent satisfied with the work done by guys. They made a proper diagnostics and replaced rubber part under the front wheel. This caused vibration while driving. The price was reasonable and repair was made very fast. Also, diagnostics was free. I can recommend this company to everyone. read more

Excellent Service and superior knowledge, without the attitude! Russell had me up and running and out the door in no time. He and Shaws Auto Repair have earned all my future business! Thank you for your great service, I highly recommend this shop. read more

Today was my first visit to Shaw's and the experience was good enough to prompt a non-computer person to write an online review! These guys are the real deal. They are honest (which is sadly rare in this industry), offer very fair pricing and are genuinely kind human beings. I'm not a novice when it comes to mechanical issues so I'm certain they knew what they were talking about--and I'm certain the price was competitive. I honestly won't ever go elsewhere. read more

Very honest and hard working people. Family owned business. Never up-sells and my car always left them in good shape. Pricing is fair, much lower than the chain mechanic shops. I recommend everyone I know in east Orlando to this place any time they have car trouble. I have yet to find a better shop anywhere. read more

I have just switched to them for repairs. I have friends that have used them for 10 plus years and swear by them. My first visit he quoted me an hour of labor, so when I went to pick it up ha said it was only a half hour. Try and remember the last time that happened at a repair place. They have an excellent reputation and so far I agree read more

Well highly recommended before Dave Shaw died. They did $1000s of work on mine and my family's old cars to keep them running under his proprietorship and their mechanics Rick and Johnny.. But I took my 1989 Buick Century over there a week ago barely running and only Rick was working and they had jobs backed up and the daughter-in-law said it would be awhile. So a week and a half later, no car and I wanted to ask them to expedite and get it done Friday if possible, if not I just thought I'd ask and she informed me that she couldn't work on the car and they didn't bother to call me & that for 1 1/2 weeks letting me think my car was being fixed all that time. Now, needing to take a trip to the west coast to see my dying mother in a rehab center, I HAVE 2 days to find another mechanic to fix it and trustworthy, reasonably price ones like these people USED TO BE under DAVE's leadership ARE very difficult to find. So i pressed for more since this was very odd, i'd had my car up there recently for little freebies had inquired about repairs and nothing was said to the contrary so I pressed and she informed me that Rick refused to work on my car. and I'm like "What? he's worked on it and fixed it like a half dozen times since '06!" and so I'm like "why doesn't he like me" and then I recalled having taken my mom's red 1996 Ranger in for a thermostat housing and thermostat change because I looked at it and thought it was leaking there and my mother wanted them to do the work, not me. So wanting to save money,by telling them what i needed and thereby avoiding a diagnostic fee, i told them to do that, flush the cooling system it and change the anti freeze. So he changed the upper hose instead and charged me a diagnostic fee, a flush and a hose change, $131. I trusted the man's work, work but being a stickler for details and liking all the knowledge about my vehicles I can get,. i asked them to call him in to discuss it to ask what he found and how and was he sure about it not being the thermostat housing, (my late brother diagnosed it as such as well) end he immediately turned what can only be described as very p*ssy at the question right in front of the owner. who didn't say a word.was very rude and challenging saying "your're questioning my work!" and I said no sir, i am merely questing you about what you found when you worked on it" and he barked "yes you are" and remained belligerent would not answer until I gave up trying to mend the fence at the moment and paid and left and thought bygones were bygones, that I'd be taken at my word that I was not questioning the quality of his work. Well it turns out I SHOULD have questioned it because a year later when i changed the radiator, I found out he had not performed work I paid to have done. . When I changed the radiator last December in the Ranger I FOUND OUT HE NEVER FLUSHED it, like I paid for, instead, he topped it off with the gallon of green antifreeze I provided. The way I found is because I thought the antifreeze had rust in it because it was all red when I took it up there about a year ago but in fact, the color was rust because my brother had flushed it and put GM Dexcool back in it long before I took it to Shaw's to get the hose replaced. so based on that exchange in which I was completely flummoxed by his bad attitude because I had the utmost respect for his work and Shaw's at that point or I would not even have brought my mother's vehicle there.. Well at this point realizing there was no bridges to burn there anymore, I cursed the daughter -in-law out and informed her that I thought this was a good place and good people but that now I knew that Dave after Dave died, their A-holes so she said "don't bring my father in law into this "and I go "f" you, Dave was the only decent person ever here and the rest of you turned out to be just a bunch stupid of a-holes. expletives not deleted, and left and came back to get my car from Buick and thought about telling him what a candy-arse pantywaist he turned out to be around a couple like minded women without Dave around to keep his lousy attitude in check, but changed my mind, got into my barely running car and left. , read more
