I have a lot of empathy for the young guys working at this facility. Unfortunately, I was there…read moreuntil 6 PM because somebody quit and my car was pushed to the end of the line even though I arrived at 7:45 AM. Why is the owner not supervising these young technicians? They have very little experience and should be supervised by experienced in licensed mechanics. When I picked up my vehicle, the alignment seemed way off. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the work they performed, but they certainly took the two front rims and tires off the vehicle. All I can tell you is my steering wheel was jiggly back & forth driving over 60mph. As a result, I have to take my suv to a tire shop for a wheel alignment. Another $100 bucks.

OCTOBER 19, 2025 UPDATE After all of my phone calls to him…read morefor car advice and no matter how annoying I can be, Frank has never once lost his patience with me. Frank holds high standards of service, knowledge and hard work and he insists on the same for his employees. His prices are fair, he's honest and his education is extremely impressive. After I totaled my car frank helped me choose one without hesitation (probably because I kept bringing my choices to him only to have him say NO YO ). After more than a decade of trusting my car and safety with Gateway and thanks to Franks help ... I finally purchased a new car and it Looks like I'll be a loyal customer forEVER The shop is open Mon thru Fri and his prices remain very fair. END UPDATE For years I have been able to rely on and trust the staff of Gateway Automotive. Today when my car died outside of the library I called the shop and Ryan assured me that if I towed it over they would take care of it so I did. I was immediately greeted by the staff and Ryan went straight to work. The problem was diagnosed and repaired in less than 2 hours. He was direct, accurate and incredibly helpful. I am grateful for his hard work. The entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I ALWAYS recommend this shop for the fact that they've never been wrong and have always been honest. Many times I've sent my friends to Gateway for second opinions and nearly every time their diagnosis was on point and way more affordable. It's hard to find an honest mechanic in this town... Gateway fills that need

Where do I begin? The Auto Shop is #1 in my book In Modesto!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!…read moreBruce and Larry and the mechanics at the Auto Shop as they are simply amazing. They've diagnosed my two cars and repaired it properly each time at a very affordable rate. They treat you like you're family and that really says something in the auto repair business today. The real test for me though was after a repair for my Toyota Avalon. A part that they replaced began to smoke a week after installation. I called up and told them what had happened, and they towed me from 1800 McHenry to their shop, went to Sacramento to get the new part I needed and had me back on the road in 4 hours the same day!! And when a problem arises, you can tell the good from the bad Mechanics just by the way they "handle it!" You know what Best part was? They didn't charge me for labor, parts or anything. They just took care of it. Who does that anymore?Well, they just honor their customers. Gosh if only all businesses could do this like they d? What a world it could be. Thank you so very much for keeping me driving Bruce and the Auto Shop Team. You guys rock:-)

They suck ever since the original owner sold the place. I took my van in a few years ago for a 60k…read moretune up, they forgot to refill my transmission, they cracked my oil filter oil heater housing. They were supposed to change it out for an aluminum one, they didn't. I had to take back in because they didn't install it right it leak oil all over the place. I had have the engine power washed to get all of oil out of the engine valley. Now I had to take it to get the manifold replaced because they stripped out the threads when they replaced the oil heater.
