Frank holds high standards of service, knowledge and hard work and he insists on the same for his employees. His prices are fair, he's honest and his education is extremely impressive. After I totaled my car frank helped me choose one without hesitation (probably because I kept bringing my choices to him only to have him say NO YO ). After more than a decade of trusting my car and safety with Gateway and thanks to Franks help ... I finally purchased a new car and it Looks like I'll be a loyal customer forEVER The shop is open Mon thru Fri and his prices remain very fair. END UPDATE For years I have been able to rely on and trust the staff of Gateway Automotive. Today when my car died outside of the library I called the shop and Ryan assured me that if I towed it over they would take care of it so I did. I was immediately greeted by the staff and Ryan went straight to work. The problem was diagnosed and repaired in less than 2 hours. He was direct, accurate and incredibly helpful. I am grateful for his hard work. The entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I ALWAYS recommend this shop for the fact that they've never been wrong and have always been honest. Many times I've sent my friends to Gateway for second opinions and nearly every time their diagnosis was on point and way more affordable. It's hard to find an honest mechanic in this town... Gateway fills that need

Why is the owner not supervising these young technicians? They have very little experience and should be supervised by experienced in licensed mechanics. When I picked up my vehicle, the alignment seemed way off. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the work they performed, but they certainly took the two front rims and tires off the vehicle. All I can tell you is my steering wheel was jiggly back & forth driving over 60mph. As a result, I have to take my suv to a tire shop for a wheel alignment. Another $100 bucks.

My daughter's 2010 VW beetle had an oil leak that was getting worse. Prior to taking it to the…read moreshop I had investigated oil leaks in VW Beatles on the Internet. When I called the shop said they didn't have time to repair it until the end of the week however I could bring it in and they would look at it and give me an estimate. Prior me taking the car in the owner told me over the phone that these leaks mainly come from the vacuum pump. This made me think "This guy knows what hes doing " as it is exactly what I saw on the Internet. After taking the car in they confirmed that the oil was leaking from the vacuum pump. For the amount of labor I thought the estimate was reasonable. After talking about it with my daughter we decided to fix it on our own. When I went to pick up the car they said no charge and even gave me some tips on how to repair the leak ourselves. These guys are great. I will definitely bring my other vehicles to this repair garage.

Years ago when I had my Acura transmission rebuilt I was so pleased I returned shortly later for my Dodge. I had also recommended these guys on Craigslist back in the day as at that time they were the only affordable place with a great warranty. Normally affordable and quality don't go together however these folks are amazing! Never did I have an issue since the rebuilds. Only visits were for maintenance. They were also quick, had the vehicles back with in a few days. Even after I looked over the work you couldn't even tell the transmissions had been removed as every was put back, secured and none of the bolts were stripped or rounded off. I knew the job was done tho as I checked in occasionally as it's hard to find a trust worthy shop. Mario and his Father make a great team.
