I took an older Toyota with transmission issues in to Darin to figure out what it would take to fix it. He quoted me $60 to do that. He checked it out, burped it, added fluid and it ran like new. Then he only charged me $30! He also noted the u joints were going bad. He replaced them, and they're still working well. When the clutch went out on my 2011 Nissan Frontier, the dealer wanted over $2500 for parts and labor. Darin got it done for $1900, and it's working great. The one problem I had with it (idiot light wouldn't go out) was sorted out by Darin and crew a month later at no charge. They do good work, and they aren't trying to take you for a ride. He could have told me the tranny was bad on the Toyota, and needed replaced for all I knew. I really appreciate being able to trust them.

I would like to be able to write a review on this business based on the work they did. But with…read morethat said what I can say is that this is a very honest shop. Darren brought my truck in and looked it over for a transmission leak in the front differential. When Darren explain what the problem was he advised that it may still be under warranty. So instead of charging me for something that he could've made money on he went the extra mile and made sure that it was still under warranty, which it was. Darren called the Chevy dealership for me and verified that this was a warranty issue. I must say that in this day and age it was very refreshing to have a honest dhop like this one highly recommend if I ever have any transmission work I will definitely come here.

For the most part, I have had decent luck going to other local mechanics in the area, with a couple of glaring exceptions, but decided to check out Auto Surgeon since it's pretty close to where I live. And now, I won't go anywhere else. Kevin, the owner, is a fantastic guy who has always done right by me. He's an excellent mechanic who has worked on at least four of my vehicles over the years. The other employees who work there are also knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. You would be foolish not to give Auto Surgeon a try the next time you need your vehicle repaired.

Their pricing is on point and the guys are super friendly. As a woman I worry about getting taken advantage of since I don't always know as much mechanically as most men but they don't try to sell you anything here or fix anything that's not broken. This shop has my business for life.

I came in to fix a flat and wanted to know how much it would cost if I added the tire rotation. They quoted me to fix the flat for free and charge for the rotation and calibrating the sensors to new tire positions. Great deal and I accepted. The problem came when they came back to tell me they were done with the rotation but I needed a new tire. I'm in a money crunch this week and I can't buy the new tire. Actually I didn't want to buy just one new tire. I prefer 2 new ones because the tires have about half the wear of new. I can't afford 2 new tires. I'll need to buy a used tire with 6/32 tread and have it mounted and rotated in with these. But unfortunately they hadn't checked the tire to be sure it was good for a flat repair first. That put me in a jam. I came in for a flat repair and was getting a deal which is why I chose to rotate tires as well. Now there's no deal. Everything has changed. I spoke to a manager and he was very gracious. Both the young men actually were very professional and I was quite impressed. Lately it seems if there's any issue no matter what business it is, the employees get nasty. Even if I'm very cool about it, they're very defensive and even aggressive post Covid. Customer service is so different post Covid. But not these guys. I think the manager was Lonnie and I wish I could remember the other young man's name. He wore glasses. I appreciate these guys understanding my disappointment and they offered to waive the charges on the rotation and just put my spare back on. They also put plastic bags on the rim and tire so they wouldn't get the interior of my vehicle dirty. That was totally unexpected since I put the tire into the back without a cover to begin with. 5 stars for this tire shop. They are all so nice and their prices are very reasonable. I definitely recommend them for anyone trying to find a trustworthy reasonably priced tire store.

Driven Automotive exceeded expectations. The barometer for me is always customer service. From the first impression, service writer Steve Lee knocked it out of the park. I requested service on my vehicle on short notice and Steve was kind enough to place me on a waitlist. Not expecting a call back, he did indeed and squeezed my vehicle in the next day. The Driven Automotive facilities are modern, well maintained, and make it obvious that customer impressions matter to them. Steve conveyed clear understanding of our maintenance needs and gave us clear expectations. Ultimately, Driven Automotive didn't try to upsell me on service not readily needed and provided solid advice and guidance on potential future service. The credibility already established from the first phone call gave me confidence that Driven Automotive are pros interested in letting their work product and reputation be their greatest selling point. We were really impressed and planning to be loyal customers moving forward with all our vehicles!
