Best Mechanics I know there trust worthy and the price is reasonable. They do a good job on fixing your car/truck. They usually have your vehicle done in that same day you drop it off depending on the work your vehicle needs.Best local shop to support. The waiting area is always clean and restrooms always best mechanics I know. read more

My 2002 Ford Focus SW was seen just up the street at Addison's Garage. Estimate quoted at $2684.00. Car is valued online at $1500. Took my friend's suggestion and got a second estimate from Elder's. Five hrs. Later I'm on the road again with a comprehensive repair and oil change for $547.00. Thank you Allie, Jared and the rest of the crew for saving my car's life. I literally had the tow truck and donation ready to go. Sweet Mother's Day present! read more

I last reviewed this place in 2015, and almost 4 years later, I'm still very pleased. I have a 21-year old car, so I have to stay on top of the maintenance. Elder does a good job of keeping me updated on what needs to be done to keep things in order, and I never feel like I'm getting the hard sell. I'm leaving this review because I was especially happy with recent service in which they worked on my car after it failed an emissions test. Not only did they fix it, but they took it down to the state emissions place and MADE SURE that it passed. That's good stuff. And deserves five stars. read more

Ended up taking my car here due to it being close, and the drivability of my car vs the curb was weak. I happen to know a lot about cars, and what parts cost, labor time, etc.. I really didn't care what the parts cost, due to my insurance company being involved. But if they weren't that would of been a different story. The staff is very friendly, and they do know what they are doing. As far as an awesome shop, not so much. Just an average shop, and charges average labor prices with typical mark up. Be prepared to receive a phone call from the owner if he doesn't like what you write. read more

Very friendly and helped out a friend that snowy december day, water pumb failure, reasonable pricing. Giving her a honest list of what will need to be taken care of soon: brakes, transmission & others. Thanks you to staff for fast and friendly service. Loved the Yelp discount also. read more

Still absolutely loving this place. I only wish they had some weekend hours, but hey, you can't always get what you want. Incredible service, I am a patron for life. read more

Ive taken my car here for the past 5 years. The employees are always so helpful and aren't pushy in the slightest. They wont perform any work on the car before talking to you first. They will help you prioritize repairs and are SUPER honest and reasonable. LOVE THEM! read more

We had the brakes done on my wife's Toyota RAV4 and were very pleased with Elder Auto. They were friendly and helpful and the repair was completed on time. I would highly recommend them. read more

My father has a '63 corvette stingray that had been sitting in a garage for many years. We wanted to find the best place to work on it and used yelp to find a good, honest and reliable mechanic. We learned about a Elder Auto through Yelp and took our car there. Our corvette is now running great and we weren't overcharged. I look forward to taking it to Elder Auto for anything it might need in the future! read more

My friend recommended Elder Auto to me a while back and I started taking my truck in for maintenance, recently the stars aligned and I found my dream classic car online and purchased it from out of state, took it to Elder for an overall inspection and owner Ramon called and explained what work was needed, which wasn't very much, he is so honest telling what you need and things you don't need to worry about, this is a quality shop who is honest and forthcoming, I highly recommend them to all, you will be completely satisfied read more

There is only one word that matters when it comes to auto mechanics -- trustworthy. And Elder Auto is just that. After using myriad mechanics in the Denver area during the past 15 years, it's great to finally have a mechanic who not only is honest and up front, but also very affordable and very customer friendly. All of the staff -- not just the owner and front desk clerk -- are professional, courteous, and friendly, and best of all, they have been well trained in the area of communications. Elder has a great website that makes appointments, etc., convenient, and the mechanics are knowledgable and do great work. Taking your car into the shop is usually not something most people enjoy, but Elder Auto will make it as close to enjoyable as possible. Seriously, give them a try. read more

We were new in town and had an auto emergency. Elder Auto to the rescue! They are honest, fair and reliable.

I love this place!! They provide great service!! Our whole family brings their cars here.

SIMPLY SUPERB!! Been going to Elder Auto for all mechanical work on our cars since 2011, with a very few exceptions that we have regretted (e.g. Brakes Plus). Personnel, both desk and mechanical, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. VERY detailed responses to concerns and they will keep working on any mystery problem 'till they get it resolved. Timely, convenient, and AAA approved. Don't do unnecessary work for the bucks. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! read more

They were very nice, but the prices quoted were 2-3 times higher than other shops so I didn't get any work done there.

If you're looking for a great honest bunch of people that work hard at a reasonable price on your automobile then bring it to Elder these guys are great I took my car in to have the brakes done I was looking at maybe 3 to 4 days I took it in at 8 and it was done by 2 p.m. that day these guys are honest reliable and very good hard-working people read more

I'm super happy with Elder Auto - they do superb work and I'm very satisfied. Sometimes they've said "Oh you just needed a hose clamp here, or a zip-tie on the under-carriage there, so no charge." They've earned my trust. I'm lucky enough to live within walking distance so it is easy to schedule an appointment and drop the car off. They always check in by phone before doing anything, so no surprises. Great communication, great service, honest answers to "What would you do if it were your car?" +5 recommended :-) read more

Ramon Elder has a passion for educating people on what their vehicle needs and why it needs it. He truly cares about each client and that their safety! read more

We've had our repair work done here for about 5 years. We've found their work to be excellent and reasonably priced. They get the work done quickly. We appreciate their willingness to offer transportation to or from home or work while the car is being worked on. We wouldn't consider using anybody else. read more

Honest professionals. Took car in for second opinion after dealership said I needed my rear breaks serviced. Elder said there was no problem!! read more

Love, Love, Love Elder Auto! They are honest and run a tight ship. I would recommend them to anyone

The manager, Cody, was great. Very professional, thorough and honest. Pricing was great. They all went above and beyond to fix the issue (oil cooler lines and oil filter adapter) and also degreased the underside of my vehicle. I would highly recommend the team at Elder Auto. Great experience! read more

I took a truck I was looking at purchasing to them for them to inspect it. I had a fantastic experience at Elder. They were incredibly friendly, helpful, and timely. Couldn't have had a better experience. read more

I was in Denver from out of town and noticed my car had been making an increasingly obnoxious squealing noise. They were able to squeeze me in and checked it out right away. They were not patronizing at all like some places. They checked it out and told me to come see what was up. They actually brought me into the back while my car was lifted up and showed me exactly what they found. Not only was it something small and easy to fix but they fixed it in front of me. They could easily have lied and said it was something bigger and charged an arm and a leg. Instead they let me see the problem. let me watch them fix it and didn't charge me at all. Can you guys move your store to Austin please? read more

These guys have an excellent rating for a reason. My first visit was a few weeks ago to get a new radiator on my beloved 2005 Subaru Legacy. I got excellent service start to finish and I was seriously impressed. I will be back here for everything now-- no more dealership for me! read more

Elder Auto is my #1 mechanic recommendation for Denver! I brought my car in for strut replacements. I had it checked out previously at another place and Elder Auto quoted me less for the repair. I've had consistently great experiences with them so I opted to go to Elder (not just for the money savings!) During this visit, they were very kind to me at all points and kept me up to date throughout the date. Craig, their driver, got me to work right away after dropping my car off - and he was so friendly. Gerard, who was my point of contact during the repair was incredible. He was super accommodating to my schedule and made sure I had the car ready to go so I could pick up my son from daycare in time. He was able to save me some money by finding less expensive parts and then he worked with my warranty company to help me save $700 on my repair!! (The shop I went to previously informed me that the repair wasn't covered under my warranty). Gerard was so friendly and kind as well, he was great with his customer service. I think he went above and beyond connecting with the warranty company. He explained my repairs and options to me in a way that I could understand and didn't pressure me into anything extra. Before this visit, My husband also had great experience with them a few months before. My husband went in to get a funny noise of our car checked out, and he ended up waiting a little longer that he'd like to be seen. Having noticed that he was still waiting, the owner ended up approaching him in the waiting area asking if his car had been seen yet and upon hearing that it had not, he personally took it for a test drive. Unfortunately the noise wasn't rearing it's ugly head that morning. read more

Not sure what that dude who gave this place two stars is all about. They are friendly, informative, and honest. I asked for updates on my car's progress and they were on top of it - regular updates. I'll defintely be taking my other cars here. Great service, great experience. Thank you, Eric! read more

Thank you, Yelpers, for finding me a trustworthy mechanic that is not only top notch and honest, but right up the street from me. I took my 2006 Lancer to the good folk at Elder Auto for a full inspection and oil change. They did the necessary repairs and gave me a ride to work all the way in Lakewood! When I came to pick up the car, the staff realized I had been charged for a belt that I didn't end up needing and adjusted my bill accordingly before I paid. I would never have known, but this family business obviously takes their reputation seriously. And their reputation is very well earned. I have found my new car shop! read more

Got issues all taken care of and followed up, thanks for getting it taken care of. Would recommend to friends and family

Now that I've been an Elder Auto customer for years, I can tell you I have NEVER had a bad experience. I will ALWAYS take my vehicles to Elder Auto. They are very FAIR in their pricing and dont try to stiff you with things that arent needed. If you want HONEST, QUALITY work, and great customer service, EVERY TIME, take your vehicle here! Shuttle for you too if you dont have another way to/from home/work. And I wasnt paid to say that! read more

Tried Elder Auto for the first time for 60K-mile service on my Subaru due to a friend's recommendation. I made an appointment the day before, and left my car with them that morning. They offered a ride to work but I instead did the 10 minute walk to the Colorado Boulevard light rail station. They called to confirm the work and advise of two things I should be aware of and consider replacing (no hard sell at all). Work was promptly completed for slightly less than estimated, and car runs fine. The best part--this service is the same as what I had done by another shop at 30K miles. Elder Auto charged $300+ less than I payed three years ago! I like and I will be back. read more

This place was recommended to me by a friend and I'm glad I took the advice. Fast, friendly and reliable service all at a reasonable price

I've been looking for just the right shop to work on my Vette and I believe I have found it! Ramon, Peter and Tom took great care and patiently answered all of my questions. Clearly a great bunch of professionals (i.e. gearheads) running a family style auto shop with a level of warmth and pride rarely seen! read more

Been going to Elder for several years now so this review is a little overdue. Originally I was looking for an alternative to the Toyota dealership I had been going to for basic maintenance work when I caught the dealership in a lie, trying to rip me off. Enter Ramon & Elder Auto. After stopping by to check out the place and talking with Ramon for a bit, I felt comfortable having them do some work on my vehicle. Fast forward a few years and now they do all the maintenance on both my truck and my wife's car. Everyone here is very friendly, the service is very good and most importantly - I feel like I get a honest answer whenever I have questions. My last visit sums all of that up - I made an appointment for a simple oil change and tire rotation on my wife's Rav4. Took them about an hour or so and Ramon calls me to let me know the car is ready. As I'm talking to him at the counter and getting ready to pay I realize there's been some confusion and they've done the oil change and an tire alignment. I tell Ramon I didn't ask for the alignment. Not only does he immediately get the car back in to get the tire rotation done, but he doesn't charge me for either the alignment or rotation - just the oil change! THAT is how you treat customers, and how you keep them for life. Thanks Ramon! read more

They are always super nice and have frequently given me discounts and or fixed things for free. Honest people doing honest labor

Please, Believe the good reviews and trust these guys to do the right thing for you and your car. I had neglected all of the electrical problems in my 13 year old Tahoe for years. I pretty much delayed until I was driving blind; no speedometer, no 4 wheel drive, no dummy lights, no turn signal, no gas? I don't know, the gas gauge is out too! The car was also driving like a turd as I had not had an alignment done since.....uh, never. So, I finally overcame my my fear of slapping down thousands of dollars to whomever at whatever garage, and decide to give Elder a shot. Freakin' rock stars. Ken was great and explained everything that was wrong in detail. To my surprise the car is in great shape considering the age and mileage. I was ready to give up and trade the car in but it has been reborn. All electrical bugs are fixed and the car is driving like new. Unbelievable. Thanks Elder for making me feel like an idiot for not bringing it to you sooner! All of our family cars are now going to be serviced at Elder. Did I mention the location kinda sucks? Evans is a war zone. I took the bus from work to pick up the car and had to walk along Evans and thought I was gonna die. Next time I will take advantage of Elder's ride service from the local light rail station. Again, I'm an idiot. read more

Brought my car here after it was spewing thick white smoke from the exhaust pipe. Had it towed from my place to theirs. The next day I received a call letting me know the extent of the damage. 2 business days later it was ready. Very professional, courteous, and reliable here at elder auto. Will be the only place I take my car to. Thank you for honest hard work! read more

Elder Auto is great, the service is always fast and Ramon's employees are friendly. I am a personal concierge in Denver and I highly recommend Elder Auto to my clients. read more

I love this place! I have been three times (oil change, tire change, and some electrical) and have had a great experience each time. I brought my husband's car in once because the check engine light was on. They looked it over and said nothing was wrong and didn't even charge us. I will definitely continue to bring our cars here. read more

I called Elder Auto based on reviews after my wife took her car to a local competitor (can I call them out here?) and was given a list of needed repairs and a price quote. I didn't tell them about the other shop, I just told them the list of repairs I needed done. Elder Auto gave me a lower quote over the phone for the list of repairs, so I made an appointment. They called after looking the car over to let me know that the car didn't need some of the repairs listed by the other shop (wheel-bearing replacement), and confirmed that the other repairs were needed and confirmed that I wanted them to proceed with all the work. I gave the go-ahead, they got the work done as promised and saved us over $1000 between refraining from unneeded work and the lower quote to begin with. That's the kind of honesty that you can't always find, and in a pinch you don't always have time to get a second opinion. read more
