My Dad's Automotive

Build this place as your car go-to!

If you have even had a minute where you are RIGHT, but then life flips and Right turns out to be Left. Urgggh! That SO happened to me at My Dad's.
I went to get my wife's car (2013 VW Tiguan with 33k miles) inspected. It turns out that the front windshield wipers had dry rotted and needed to be replaced. I was told "About $60!!) "Whoa!!" I thought, "That's WAY too much for 2 wiper blades!" Thinking that this was a "How we pay for such well-mannered mechanics!" I said: "Gimme a sec to check online". {Actually, I was not that nice as my sense of outrage undoubtedly crept into my voice and expression, but I am writing this after the fact and trying to keep from looking like a jerk.} After checking online at AutoZone, Advance Auto, and WalMart, I found out that yep, that's how much the damn things cost!
Why put this in a review of My Dad's Automotive? Because no one there so much as blinked while I went through my process; they just let me have my feelings of outrage and victimization, gave me 10 minutes to empower myself with the facts, and graciously accepted my realization that they were just doing their job. Their charge for the wipers were within a couple of bucks of WalMart (which was the cheapest of the three). Then, to prove no hard feelings, they even one upped me by repairing a nail hole in my right-rear tire without charging me (it turns out that a gradual leak had been tormenting my wife for months).
Yeah, that deserves a 5 star rating.

Steve said the service was good and timely.

Trust worthy and honest. I won’t go any where else.

All around great experience. Will definitely be going back. Thank you to all who work there.

Fast, reliable and honest. I will always bring my vehicles here for any issues.

As usual these guys are really looking out for the car owner. Always about safety and for the long haul, not just for the present.

My sons car made a clunk noise and they diagnosed the problem right away, they were honest in saying the car wasn’t in salvageable condition and not safe , that it wasn’t worth fixing. They didn’t try to get us to pay more for a lost cause and that shows a company’s integrity. Highly recommend them!

What a comfort to have an intelligent caring and honest mechanic. I don’t think there is anything Brian can’t fix!! Service and professionalism is outstanding! Highly recommend !

I have been taking my cars to My Dad's for several years now. They consistently perform at an excellent rate. They always have our cars running in peak performance and they are totally honest. Recently, my car's tire pressure light came on. I called My Dad's and they said they that could see me immediately and take a look at my car. As soon as I drove up, they took the keys and put my car up on the lift. They located a large screw in one of the tires and patched it. The entire visit took approximately 10 minutes. I doubt that you could find another place that would give you immediate service like My Dad's, and provide total peace of mind by avoiding a flat tire. That is huge to me! I will be a lifetime customer of My Dad's.

Look no further if you need a reliable, honest, knowledgeable and fair mechanic. Brian, Jeremy and Steve are great people to work with. They answer every question and take the time to explain everything they do in detail. Like any good shop, they will recommend additional services your vehicle may need, but only in an informative manner. Why pay more for impersonal dealership service? Support a great local small business!

Harpreet said the experience was great. Brian helped with process and was up front with the cost and was very nice. He will definitely be going back for more work that they talked about.

Jeremy and Brian took good care of us. They scheduled our repair to accommodate our timeline and ordered the parts ahead of time to turn the repair into a 1 day job.

They are the best in 2 areas:
1. Customer Service - so easy to work with and they bend over backwards to make it work for your schedule

2. Brian and his team are great mechanics and I feel good knowing that they make the best AND HONEST recommendation for service and repair.

One of my best experiences with a mechanic. Representative suggested great offerings and help me pick the right tires. Will definitely come back again for my future needs. Told me the install would take a 2-3 hours and they finished within 2 hours. Pleasant and nice people work here!

Honest and timely repair. Knowledgeable and courteous staff. Heartily recommend this firm to all who inquire about auto service.

Kathy said they were the best.

Tracy said that the business provided excellent customer service and was very helpful in diagnosing issues with her vehicle.

Bryan and his team are outstanding!! The most HONEST shop in the area. And, very reasonable. Bryan will tell you like it is. He'll make suggestions as to when you really need to have the service...whether it's urgent or pending. On this visit, I had front brakes replaced...cuz they were shimmying...warped discs - went with upgraded discs (non-rusting). Also had brake fluid flushed, transmission flushed - not a drain and refill - complete flush...(costs more...worth it)...front seal on axle and boot replaced...all for about $1200. Original quote - $1400/change. Bryan is a very fair person. He runs his shop with excellent values. That's why I've been his customer for about 5 years!! Everyone that works there is professional...knows what they're talking about...and is very customer-service oriented. They make it easy to do business. You won't get ripped off here. That's just not how they operate. I've recommended friends to Bryan...he's treated them right - even if he had to refer them to someone else...such as a guy that specializes in rear end and transmission work - very fair guy!! So...if you're looking for a great outfit to service your car...to provide you with an honest appraisal of work that needs to be done...this IS THE PLACE, FOLKS!!! They ROCK!!! I would not hesitate to recommend My Dad's to anyone.

Dad's Automotive continues to be a great place to take all my cars. Great service and better automotive knowledge. 5 stars
