    Text expressing concern of the quality of work
    Farah A.

    Star auto has had my vehicle since sept 8, 2022. It took 3 months for the vehicle to be completed and since then there have been numerous issues with the quality of work that has been done. I've expressed concern about the lack of professionalism and the poor quality of work to the owner Don multiple times. He has continually promised the car will be perfect every time I've had to take the car back to his shop. From sept to Dec he tried releasing the car to me 3 times in an incomplete state. Finally once the car was released there has been issues with the hood, panel alignment and a rattling noise. I've pointed out that the front bumper was not aligned and Don confirmed that the clips were not properly holding the bumper in its place. This issue has yet to be fixed. Don asked me to bring the car in so he can take a look and each time there is a piece that is bent broken or worn leading the vehicle to need more work. The latest issue with the hood has me fearing for my safety. The hood rattles while the car is in motion as if it is loose and could possibly pop open at any given time. I've expressed safety concerns and there has been no in-depth inspection by Star Auto. I've taken the car back for this issue 3 times and each time he gives a different reason for the issue. Not only has Star auto demonstrated lack of knowledge and accountability in the outcome of the repairs but they have also shown a lack of competence in repairing the car which is troublesome and a hazard to one's safety.

    Clearly original part, worn  . Work charged for never performed.

    Don identified the issue immediately. Quoted a fair and competitive cost and had the work done on time. Would highly recommend.

After paying and picking up my vehicle, it didn't even last 3 miles before the check engine light and multiple warning lights came back on. I called immediately and was told to bring it back. The very next morning, the truck wouldn't start again. When I contacted the shop, they couldn't even help with a tow, forcing me to pay out of pocket just to get it back to them. Once it was there, the communication was nonexistent. No updates, no calls--nothing. I had to chase them down myself. After being told I'd get a callback (which never happened), I called again before closing and was suddenly told I now needed to pay another $1,300 for a fuse box. So after charging me $1,400 for a "fix," they completely missed another major issue? That should have been identified from the start. When I questioned it, I got no clear explanation, no accountability, and zero empathy. Just another bill. This place seems more interested in getting more money out of you than actually fixing your vehicle correctly the first time. Poor communication, careless diagnostics, and no customer care. Take your business somewhere else.

    I was like you recently, looking on Yelp for a decent, honest mechanic to work on my car. I needed…read morea brake job, and a dealer would charge retail prices, and the corporate bosses at a chain shop would pressure the shop manager to nickel and dime the customer into purchasing additional repairs that they probably didn't need to boost sales. Independent shops are usually reliable as they live and die by their reputation, but often times they can be hit and miss. I can only speak from my experience but I can report to you that Dave's Auto Repair is the real deal. The shop is owned and run by Armando and his family (Armando bought it from Tim, the former owner, and Dave used to run the shop). Armando knows cars, and more importantly, he knows how to treat people right. His prices were competitive or better than other quotes I got, and he didn't try to upsell me on unneccesary repairs. He did give me a heads up on a few things to keep an eye on, which I appreciated, and he even threw in a few freebies which was unexpected and much appreciated. What's also nice is that most independent shops are only open M-F but Dave's is also open on Saturdays, which makes it convenient for those with work/school during the week. I'm very happy with my experience at Dave's and it gives me piece of mind knowing that I have a great mechanic I can take my car(s) to from now on.

    Really a fantastic experience. Honest service, quick with both the diagnostic and the repair, and…read moreeasy communication. Overall could have been easily charged a LOT but came out with an incredibly fair price for only the work that was completed.
