DO NOT GO HERE UNLESS NECESSARY…read more 25 year Eagle County Resident. Go to a better shop in Eagle or Eagle Vail for better prices and superior service. I have used this shop previously and they did a fine job (when they first opened). However, the service is incredibly inconsistent and the customer service from Clarence is insulting. Clarence could care less about your time or providing information. Less than 20 minutes after receiving a verbal quote for various services from the other front of house person - he has always been great - and returning with my vehicle, Clarence let me know that he could not give me further information and I would have to sit and wait until they could get me in, 3 hours later. I indicated that I received a quote earlier and he said he was too busy to look into it, because he had phone calls. This is not the first adverse experience with this shop, particularly Clarence, and I would avoid it at all costs, if possible. Stay away, if at all possible and, if Clarence is serving you, ask for another representative. **Follow up - the shop in Eagle Vail quoted about $200 less and did so in writing. If I could give negative stars for customer service, I would.

Shout out to 2 Valley Tire in Gypsum!…read more This past spring, one of my snow tires hit some shrap metal and was damaged beyond repair. I bought a new tire and needed a shop to swap just one tire and wheel for me as I swap my snow tires/wheels myself. I went to one auto shop and they didn't even let me finish talking before they cut me off saying, "anything tire related is at least three weeks out." So I went down the road to 2 Valley Tire and they had my flat swapped out, old tire disposed of, and out the door in 15 minutes and for right around $30 bucks! Their staff from the front desk girl, tire technician, and manager were all extremely nice and professional. You guys gained a repeat customer today.

Another Amazing Job by Dutch's Automotive!…read more I can't say enough good things about Dutch's Automotive! This is not the first time they've come through for me, and once again they've absolutely knocked it out of the park. My Tesla Model Y took a serious hit when ice slid off my roof and caved in the top of the car. It was heartbreaking, and I was honestly worried it might not be fixable--especially since every other shop in Colorado I called told me they couldn't (or wouldn't) work on Teslas. But not Dutch's. Not only did they take on the job, they got my Tesla looking like new again--and in just a few weeks! The repair work is flawless, and their turnaround time was faster than I could've hoped for. On top of their incredible skill and professionalism, I've got to give a special shoutout to Mike. He was kind, communicative, and just genuinely great to work with throughout the entire process. I LOVE Dutch's and wouldn't trust my car with anyone else. If you need a trustworthy, talented team that's not afraid to tackle the jobs others turn down, Dutch's is the place to go. THANK YOU again!

Also damaged one of my custom center caps and didn't tell me, just half ass glued it back together and badly damaged a wheel while mounting new tires, told me the alignment I got was free due to the damaged wheel, but come to find out they didn't even do an alignment due to my vehicle needing new control arm bushings which they failed to mention. Their schedule is an absolute nightmare, they will forget you have an appointment and your car will sit there for days to a week before they touch it. Cost thousands to reverse the issues they created. Nick and Robert are great guys but Rado is shady and I have my doubts about their techs.

I want to preface this by stating that I drive a high-mileage car that sees heavy use. While this…read morestory is somewhat circumstantial, I believe my conclusions are reasonable, and I hope readers will consider them when deciding whether to use Vail Auto's services. Unfortunately, I have had several concerning experiences with Vail Auto. Over the past two years, they have been my primary shop for general maintenance and repairs. However, in late October or early November, I took my car in for a routine oil change and tire rotation. A couple of weeks later, while driving to work, I suddenly heard a loud banging noise, and my car began to shake violently. I immediately pulled off the highway and stopped at a nearby shop, where I was told that my wheel had nearly fallen off. Three lug nuts were missing, and of the two remaining, one was cross-threaded. The mechanic informed me that I was extremely lucky my wheel hadn't detached entirely. After $250 in repairs to replace the studs and missing lug nuts, they reattached my wheel, and I was back on the road. In early January, I returned to Vail Auto for another oil change and tire rotation, mentioning the previous incident. They performed the work and noted that one of my studs was still damaged. To their credit, they covered the cost of the repair due to their prior mistake. Fast forward to early February--I was driving back to Avon from Denver when my car began shaking and making a terrible noise. Remembering my prior experience, I stopped immediately. Since it was a Sunday night, I had no choice but to get a hotel and take my car to a local shop in the morning. After an inspection, they found that my wheel hub was badly bent and my brake rotor was damaged from prolonged driving on a failing hub (the noise was the result of my brake rotor going bad). The extent of the damage led them to ask if my car had experienced any major impacts. The only incident that fit was my near-wheel-loss a few months prior. The shop suggested a strong possibility that the two were related. The repair was quoted at $1,200 but ended up costing me $1,000. At their suggestion, I reached out to Vail Auto with my concerns. However, they outright denied any possibility that their negligence had caused the damage, insisting that wheel hubs and bearings "just wear out" and that my issue was unrelated. A simple search will show that wheel hub and bearing damage is a well-documented consequence of a loose wheel. I am now $1,250 out-of-pocket for repairs--all within months of the initial incident--and the likelihood that this was mere coincidence seems slim. Looking back, this wasn't the first time I had wheel issues after a visit to Vail Auto. On a separate occasion, I drove home after an oil change and tire rotation--less than two miles away--only to discover that a lug nut was completely missing. My warning to those considering Vail Auto: Can you trust a shop with major (or even minor) repairs when they have repeatedly failed at something as basic as properly securing a wheel? This requires minimal skill--just attention to detail. Can you respect a shop that refuses to stand behind its work, dismisses legitimate concerns, and ignores the opinions of multiple other mechanics? I can no longer trust or respect Vail Auto and will not return for service. I have been stranded twice and spent over $1,000 on what very likely resulted from their negligence. Their refusal to take accountability is disappointing. I believe my conclusion is logical, and I hope you take this into account when deciding where to service your vehicle--before you find yourself stranded or facing unnecessary expenses.
