My sister recommended Dare to Care to me a few years ago and I've come back over & over again since then! Their work is always very timely, efficient, and well-communicated. I've never felt 'overcharged' for their services. I appreciate them keeping me on the road so much!

Very welcoming staff, and honest in their assessment of the trouble with my rear power window not working. I dropped my car off and was prepared to walk home. The owner of the company heard me say that I live nearby and could walk home, but he offered to drive me home. I'm a woman in my 60's and this gesture truly impressed me. The best part, the repair cost half of what I was quoted to me. They were honest and said, "It was an easier fix than anticipated and did not need any new parts." Grand Junction is fortunate to still have some good, honest people in business. I would highly recommend Dare To Care to anyone for repairs.

Easily the best experience I've had with a car mechanic in about 20 years. I'm an amateur shade tree mechanic and I can confidently say, these guys are on point. On top of that, very affordable and excellent customer service. 10/10 would recommend. I won't take my vehicle anywhere else as long as these guys are in business.

I was recommended to Dare to Care & have had them do work in the past. I called for an estimate & was told I would be called back in about an hour. Waited 2 days with no call back. Ended up having to call back. They did a "mark up" on the part more than double the price of the part. I commented it was "exorbitant" (politely) and Gary got surly and refused to do the work. It is a simple repair, but I am handicapped and am no longer able do the work myself. I cannot in good faith recommend Dare to Care!

The most genuine, loyal, and friendly owners you could ever imagine. They have emense knowledge and 100% is a small mechanic shop that you can trust for wife or daughter to be treated fairly!

They restored my TRUST in auto repair companies!! Honest, reliable, friendly, reasonable, and just all around nice people! My car needed back brakes and possibly rotors. Mike said they rotors were fine. He could have easily told me I needed new ones and put them on. I wouldn't have known any better. Like I said... honest company. My emergency brake didn't work either (I forgot to tell them.) They told me to bring it back in 2 days later . Mike fixed it at no cost. They definitely will have my business from now on! Fantastic business!

I have been going to these guys for years and they used to be a reputable company but ever since Covid they have all but lost their integrity. They claim to to be Christians but they don't honor Christ with their unethical practices anymore. Prices have skyrocketed and the Quality of work has diminished immensely. I dont trust them anymore. I left my car with them to find out why my belt was squeaking and it took them two weeks to tell me it need an idler pulley. They said it was going to cost $350 to replace. I know damn well it ain't going to cost that much to fix a stupid pulley so I told him I would come and pick it up. When I arrived to get it I noticed the back end was smashed in and they denied having anything to do with it so not only did they try to rip me off they keep my car for 2 weeks and then they damaged my car and straight lie to me about it. I will never take my business there again. And I would encourage anybody to stay far away from them.

My husband and I absolutely love this mechanic! We've taken our vehicles to them for years. They always call us to let us know what repairs are needed, how much it will be, and wait for our approval to get it done. The service is very friendly and it feels like a family environment. Even though we only go in any time a car of ours needs repairs, they remember our faces and names so we feel very special and cared for here!Services: Transmission, Steering & suspension repair, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Brakes, Air conditioning, Battery

Went here after a dealership told us it would take $4000 to replace the radiator and some seals that were leaking oil. Took it to dare to care and they got it taken care of for 700. Treated us right and we're transparent with the repairs and pricing. Thank you!

I am new to the area, needed to have my brakes inspected/replaced. As well as tire rotation. Setting up the appointment was easy, Gary nd his staff were wonderful!! I worried about being taken advantage of by a new automotive mechanic shop, but to my absolute pleasure, they were a breath of fresh air!! They were honest, upfront, efficient and educational!!! There were no surprises, and they made sure I understood what I needed for my vehicle. Even referred me to another shop that deals with my specific need. I was very impressed, and will definitely keep going to them for all my vehicle needs. They are the Diamond in the rough!!

My Honda was recently damaged in the snow. I sourced recommendations and learned about Dare to Car-e on North Ave. I met Mike, who I believe is the owner, and he said he'd take a look at it. I brought the vehicle 45 minutes later and he spent the next hour calling multiple shops in town and the dealer for parts needed to repair my vehicle. The quotes ranged and he said some of the quotes were outrageous for the value. He found Napa could source the parts for 1/4 of the highest bid. He promised he'd call me when the parts are in and he'll fix the vehicle then. I am SO IMPRESSED Mike cared about my budget and wanted to get the best deal on parts. I can tell he's a stand-up, do-the-right-thing shop owner. His guys appeared to be knowledgable and treated well. I'm so thrilled to have found Dare to Car-e and will use them for future. Can't wait to see the final product. I know it'll be great. <3Service: Body & Trim

trust..is the most valiant word to me when it comes to any auto shop.these guys are top notch human beings.I was having problems with my a/c system.if, you know anything about the a/c system, it could cost upward to $800+, I trusted them to not take advantage of the situation which is very easy to do, they did not.equalizing the pressure system is all that needed to be done.the bill was less than I expect..way less!! a low bill allows me to give a big tip$$I got lucky!!true appreciation!!!!!!!! :)

Hands down the best people in town! I met Mike and his son after having car problems and no one being willing to see me for a couple of weeks out as it was a busy season. Mike got me in the same day after hearing my situation.He had my truck fixed and on my way within hours. On top of that they were really funny guys and kept the energy upbeat and moving. At no point in time did I feel like I was sitting around waiting for my car to get done. I love these people so much, can't thank them enough. I'm so grateful to have good people like this in town I recommend them to everyone.Service: Transmission

Had my alternator replaced a couple weeks ago when I went in that was the only issue with my car had never had any other problems when I got it back the check engine light was on, the traction control is off and flashing and the transmission is signifying rough when shifting! These people are fake Christian s who will harm your car if you are any type of minority! Today I found out they ripped my air intake hose in half when I went to oreillys to get a new light and they did a diagnosis! I m about to lawyer up! I m shook at the fact these people are allowed to do this to people! Never ever ever using this untrustworthy business again they are extremely shady!

Been going to Dare to Care for years now and even though I sometimes have to take the car back, they ALWAYS make it right, at no additional charge.

Have enjoyed and trusted there business for years. But my last visit I had called for an oil change and got a full service which I didn t want. Then on top of that when the car was ready and I was driving home there was a half moon of rubber on my windshield where the mechanic had held down the windshield wiper and try and break the rubber and sell me new wipers. I just paid $80 just a couple of months before my visit for those wipers. Windshield wipers don t leave a 3/8 of an inch mark on a windshield shaped like a half moon by themselves. Now that it is time for another oil change I called on 7/26 to let them know I was unhappy with what they had done and was told they would never do anything like that. He ask if I wanted a lube this time and I ask if it needed it again and he said you tell me, you said you use to be a mechanic. I have loved all of the guys at dare to care and was very, very happy with all the work they had done in the past, but this guy who answered the phone today was very, very rood. Didn t seem to care whether he lost a steady customer or not. Which he did!Services: Air & cabin filter replacement, Oil change
