Joe gets it done. Joe is thorough and quick. He is very fair on his prices. Cars everywhere here, but in his busyness he gets you taken care of. We appreciate his work and location here in Cocoa Beach. Also the name changed to Addison Automotive but they are getting to the signs.. & updating everything else.

Very nice people. helped us with a flat tire. uncomplicated. We had an emergency and got a new tire within 2 hours. Our situation was not taken advantage of financially and we are very grateful for the great service. Greetings from the German vacationers.

A couple of weeks ago, we visited Cocoa Beach when we picked up a screw on our rental car. The friendly staff were able to fix our flat and get us back on the road. Great service!! We really appreciate you all! Thank you!

I was here last year and this guy is AWESOME! I was from out of town and had an issue with my truck. Left it with him and walked down to the beach. He called me when he was done. Awesome & Affordable!!

Joe is the most honest mechanic i know and if you are looking for tires or a genuine mechanic, come to this location!!!Joe has brought important attention to my vehicle and some car parts that my old dealership/mechanic claimed they have replaced , Joe proved to me that they did not.He went above and beyond to help solve our issue and help come back home with the proper paperwork, pictures and footage to confront our dealership/mechanic for taking advantage of me and my warranty.I cannot thank Joe enough for taking the time to help us with our vehicle and taking stress off our shoulders while we were here for vacation.Major shoutout to him and his crew for caring so much about their customers. He is the type of mechanic that would help anyone out to prevent them from being stranded on the side of the road.I mean this 100%, he really impressed my husband and I with his expertise and integrity. If ever we are in cocoa beach again, this business will fully have my support and endorsement.Services: Tires, Auto engine diagnostic

My son got a flat tire while going to Cocoa Beach and needed a new tire. He called me (I live in PA). I called Dave's to see if they had his size tire, they did. My son called AAA and eventually had to be towed to Dave's cause AAA didn't have the right tools! I spoke to Joe at Dave's a number of times letting him know that it was taking forever for AAA. He was very nice and reassuring. When my son finally got to Dave's he was taken care of quickly. My son said that he and his girlfriend would make a 'beach day' out of it and drive from Orlando for routine issues with their cars...that speaks volumes! I would not hesitate to recommend Dave's. Thanks Joe, you put a mom's mind at ease the other day!

I cannot say enough great things about Dave s tires. After being left stranded by AAA on the side of the road in the heat because of a flat tire that they couldn t change because the man didn t have the right tools to take my lug nuts off, I eventually had to give in and call a tow to take my car to Dave s. Joe and the team at Dave s treated me with compassion, care, and gave me exactly what I needed in no time at all and didn t over charge me. In the time I spent sitting waiting for my car (which was around a half hour, maybe less) tons and tons of people came in and out and were treated like family and their cars were no exception. I m from Orlando, but any routine maintenance I will need I ll be taking my car the hour and a half to Dave s. I hope that if for some reason I m left stranded due to car troubles again, it s in cocoa beach so Joe can take care of it.

This is byfar the best mechanic I've ever had work on my vehicle. They are super chill, but they absolutely know cars. I would give 10 stars if I could.I came out to this shop with a flat on the front-right. Joe and company had me fixed up in about 7 minutes and the bill was very fair compared to the work performed. If you guys read this, thanks again.

Extremely polite and professional! Got me right in so I could get back to my beach vacation and make it home safely! They are your tire experts if you live in this area and if NOT they should be! He also made sure all of my other tires had the proper amount of air, topped off all my fluids, discussed things that needed my attention in the future and how much time I had before I needed my mechanic to repair them! AMAZING people and they will go way beyond any other place I have gone! Thank you!Service: Tires

We were visiting Cocoa Beach and one of our tire bolts had sheared off. They fixed it no problem. We came back the next day and got two new tires. They work quickly and the prices are very fair.

I was on vacation and needed to get my van done before Saturday. Joe was able to work me in Thursday morning and get my van back on the road within an hour or so. This place has a great family owned business feeling too. Plus they are located across the the street from the beach, I took a walk there while I waited. Van running and sounding great. I highly recommend them!

During my trip to Cocoa Beach, I started having brake problems. I was very nervous as I was supposed to be driving my truck to Miami and the brakes went out just before a holiday weekend. From a recommendation from a local, we desperately reached out to Joe to see if he could help us and he did! Joe was able to determine what the problem was and quickly fix it at a very reasonable cost. He was honest and went out of his way to make sure I had a safe truck to drive home. I was so grateful to Joe and highly recommend him to anyone needing car service in the Cocoa Beach area!Service: Brake service & repair

We were vacationing in Coco beach and discovered that we needed two new boat trailer tires. Joe needed to order them and the tires came in and he installed them right on schedule. He also repaired a couple of loose bolts on fender and oiled our jack to raise trailer. Very good service. The little extra things means a lot when you are from out of town. Thank you Joe.

Joe was great and awesome! My wife and I were there on our honeymoon and my car started acting up on the way down from Valdosta, Ga! Even though he had a full day he took my car in and gave me a ride back to my room and fixed my car for a great price and then picked me back up! He even recommended some things to do while down there! He is a really great guy and does what he can to really help people out! When I am back in Cocoa Beach I will go back and visit! And if you happen to be in Cocoa Beach and need your car looked at take it to Joe! He is very knowledgeable! Thanks Joe for helping me out!

I had a very good experience at Dave's. My car is a sixteen-year-old Nissan Maxima with 140,000 miles. It needed some routine maintenance (oil change) as well as deferred maintenance (spark plugs, radiator fluid change, brake fluid change, new belts, brake pads and rotors). The mechanic, Joe, was very conscientious and explained everything to me. He also found that a previous garage on Merritt Island, which was supposed to change my brake pads and rotors last year, only changed the pads. Today's total job took more than a full day of labor yet the charge was extremely reasonable. I've had garages charge me nearly as much for just the brake pads + rotors (uh...when they actually do change the rotors). Joe also recommended that I defer changing my tires for a year, which was another honest assessment. I would highly recommend Dave's Tire and Automotive. They showed me a lot of integrity and conscientiousness in their work. It is what you want to see in a car garage. Just the parking lot itself is a good recommendation--it is full of cars, and I saw that as a sign of customers who trust this garage and their employees. Great work at Dave's!

I had a brake issue and I stopped in to see what was needed. It was severe and Joe advised me that further driving would be very risky. I appreciated Joe s advice and concern for my safety! Joe took care of it the next day! Great service, reasonable price, friendly and professional! And Kayla gave me a ride home too!

Best mechanic I have ever been to! Kayla and Joe are such kind and genuine people. They went above and beyond with repairing my car today while charging a low fee. Honestly I am only going to go to them for any issues I am having with my car because I know they are going to take good care of me. Highly recommend!!

Joe is the bomb. Even though he was busy, he took us in & checked what was going on with my car. Fixed it quick & reasonable & spent time on a gorgeous beach while waiting... Definitely recommend! We are from NY & would definitely come back to him if we were here again !!

What a great find, thought I needed a simple balance on my tires but instead came away knowing that this place saved me from further risk of driving with an unsafe vehicle. Joe addressed my tires and had me on my way within 2hrs even though he was swamped with other client priorities. Small town Joe was a big time Hero on our vacation trip. Great work and thanks!Service: Tires

Don t let the exterior of this place deter you! Joe and Kayla- husband and wife team- do great work and really care about their customers. Joe is very knowledgeable about an array of vehicles and motors for that matter! Excellent service. Highly recommended. It is important to support locally owned businesses in the community.

Dennis, Joe, and Kayla made an unfortunate flat tire on vacation as easy as possible to fix. They ordered a new tire for us and had it on our vehicle in less than 30 minutes. Their prices were extremely reasonable. When you are on vacation getting any kind of auto work is stressful, but their honesty, fair pricing, and speed made it hassle free. I would definitely recommend this shop to a friend or family member. Thanks for the help guys!

This was the first time using Dave's Automotive Services. First, the customer service was awesome. Kayla helped me out and was very patient. I brought my car over on my lunch break and Joe & his staff went over & beyond to get me out of there with my car running great. Again, I was so impressed with the customer service and the actual service that I will be returning and referring people to them.

Joe and his wife Kayla are great! They make a great team. I stopped by today with a leak in my tire, and they had me in and out in no time. I've just moved here from out of state, and I think I've found my auto repair shop.
