The owner was incredibly responsive, even on a Sunday. I needed an appointment ASAP, and he worked me into his already busy Monday, keeping me updated while he was out on a towing job.He patched my tire in under 10 minutes and charged me well below typical prices. I've officially found my go‑to "car guy." Excellent communication, honest work, reliable service, and very affordable pricing. Highly recommend!

Donovan's is a trusted local business and we would take our vehicles to them for any cause (both…read moreDonovan's Express and the main location in Pleasant Ridge). When they discovered an additional issue right before they returned my vehicle, they did not charge for labor and even gave a discount on the part. When my AC recharge did not work the first time due to an underlying issue discovered later, they also did not charge for the failed AC recharge. The workers are always kind, patient, and explain issues thoroughly and carefully. They never act hurried or impatient, and when an issue arises on their end, they are apologetic and strive to make things right. My father listened to the Dale Donovan car show on Cincinnati's local radio station for years. We love supporting this local business! Shout out to Wayne for being so sweet and kind.

I posted in a local pleasant ridge group for recommendations for mechanics along with specific issues my car was having.

I can't recommend this place enough. I brought my car here for two separate issues. The first was…read morewhen my right rear wheel locked up and needed some new back ABS brakes along with greasing up the E brake. They did a great job and I was back on the road a day later. The second time I took it there was for cosmetic repairs after I took off my sideview mirror backing into my garage. They were able to get the parts and put them on in a day. It was awesome. The best part is I don't feel like I'm being taking advantage of. The prices are VERY reasonable and I'm not being up charged every second I'm there. Dave and Matt were very nice and called before anything was done and explained what the price was going to be. Overall a great experience and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND to everyone.

They don't try to sell you things you don't need too! They just do the essential fixes. I greatly valued the experience. Most of the time the service I request is an oil change and tire rotation.

"I want to assure you that our business is only made possible by suggesting repairs. I have every incentive to recommend them" We went in multiple times because of an EPC light, they never figured it out, and then they said a new type of battery is needed (after a $1800 service), we wen't to the VW dealership, and they laughed Dubwerx suggestion. If you want great service and price doesnt matter as much, go to the dealership. If you price is important and you want acceptable service, go to your local tire shops. If you want to pay an absurd amount of money, and have nothing fixed, go to DubWerx

They are honest with you and prices can't be found anywhere else! I was told by two other big name places in town that I need collaborators, luckily I was told about Junior's and gave them a call. They took my car for a little spin around the block as soon as I got there and told me I just needed new front break pads. (much different from what I was being told) Junior proceeded to tell me that if I did needed collaborators, I wouldn't have been able to drive more then 5miles without the breaks freezing up. I was blown away from the honestly of Junior and the dishonesty of the other places. I will from now on be going to Junior for any all maintenance needed on my car..and I'm telling everyone!

Over the years they continue to provide quality service and repairs they stand behind (they've done follow up repairs for free). Im always concerned about being ripped off, knowing very little about cars, but each repair has come in far below the price of the dealer or even other ma and pop stores like this one. They have worked with me to make sure my car is not only repaired, but will continue to work for me in the future. I appreciate their honest and direct advice without feeling like im being up-sold a bunch of add-ons i don't really need. I would highly suggest them to anyone with a foreign car. Side note: A majority of their advertising comes from word of mouth, so they reward refers with cash off your repairs and services. Even without this bonus, I would refer them to any friend or family that needs a solid mechanic.
