5 Stars - Trustworthy, Professional, and Woman-Friendly Auto Shop!…read more I found D&G Auto Repair thanks to the great Yelp reviews, especially from other women. My longtime mechanic had retired, and I wasn't sure where to go next until I discovered D&G Auto Repair on Yelp! In August 2025, I brought my car in for brake service (pads and rotors replacement). From the very beginning, I felt I was in good hands. Paulo, the manager, responded to my Yelp inquiry almost immediately. He was professional, kind, and attentive. He listened carefully to my concerns and explained everything in a clear, respectful way, something I truly appreciate. I felt a strong sense of trust that he genuinely cared about my car and my safety. When I arrived at the shop, Paulo was just as professional and kind in person. He made me feel confident in my choice to use to D&G Auto Repair. After I left my car, he followed up via text with an estimated bill before starting any work, which gave me peace of mind and control over the process. The shop itself is small but clearly run by expert technicians, and the waiting room is clean and comfortable, a nice bonus! I returned yesterday with a question about a noise I'd heard. Tony, one of the technicians, came out and personally walked around my car with me. He pointed out how clean it looked and even asked about repairs I had done elsewhere. He gave me a mini lesson on body repair which was surprisingly enlightening. He then gave me directions to the nearest Auto Parts store and Car Wash. That kind of extra care is rare and so appreciated. Overall, I highly recommend D&G Auto Repair, especially for women who are looking for a respectful, honest, and trustworthy place to bring their vehicles. I'll definitely be back!

It's one of the most expensive repairs and while you are struggling with the cost, you are always left hoping the mechanic isn't taking advantage of your lack of knowledge. Ted and his wife are absolutely fantastic and couldn't be more honest and down to earth if they tried. They were really fantastic to work with and I can't say enough good things about how they handled making my transmission run again. Of course a good outcome is always to be desired, but the journey is half of the challenge, and I'm happy to say this place took care of me the whole way through. Really appreciate it and if you're looking for a mechanic yourself, you've found the right place.

I took my car to my usual mechanic and they repaired what they thought was the problem, however, it did not repair the problem. I brought it back and they tried something else, but the warning lights persisted. I then thought a fresh set of eyes might solve the problem, so I brought my car to a garage near my office and they tried their fix, but it did not work. I was told that if their first fix did not work, the problem may need a costly repair. I was talking to a neighbor and relay my concerns about whether anyone could fix the problem and he suggested Ted's Tranmissions and General Repair I dropped my car off and within an hour they diagnosised the problem. They recommended I bring it to Sullivan Tire for an alignment. None of the other shops had suggested an alignment, so I figured at this point what did I have to lose. I got the alignment and I am now light free! I would recommend Ted's to anyone who is having getting answers for a problem with their car. They are wonder diagnosticians and I am sure they would be great at repairs, it they could have repaired my car.

Jim was very transparent about the condition of the transmission, that trying to inspect the sealed transmission would cost a lot, and this is assuming there's nothing wrong with the transmission.

Even though we're not in Texas, having a car without a functioning A/C is a quick way to make driving miserable. As they say, the proof is in the pudding. I can turn on my A/C after the car sits in the noon sun, and have it already blowing cold in a minute or two. This confirmed that Tom's does quality work, and while the parts may cost more, you know everything will work as it should. Being someone who needs A/C to live, worth every penny. I called and was able to make an appointment without a problem. Tom was great about keeping me in the loop about whether he was able to obtain the needed part and let me know when the car was all set. This may seem small, but keeping the customer in the loop is pretty underrated. I also asked to see the old compressor afterward, and they were able to show me what was wrong with it and causing it to make noise. The repair was not cheap, with the compressor alone coming in at around $400. I mentioned that I saw the part for $200-something online. I was told that because they answer for the work, they need to be able to quickly obtain a new part if the one they had was defective. Ordering online would mean us having to wait for a while while the new one comes in, which could take a while. Not to mention I would either be out a car, or there'd be extra labor in assembling/reassembling. The higher price was at least in part due to several markups along the supply chain.
