It was the most amazing auto-repair experience I've had in my entire life! Dave took care of my vehicle and repaired everything to the utmost satisfaction!What made this experience very unique is how often he kept me updated with all the repairs, the timeline, the price and all pertinent information to satisfy my concerns about my repairs. They literally sent me videos of all the repairs and walked me through what was going on in the video. There were no surprises and no unnecessary delays! The absolute best experience and most friendly customer service!Needless to say, Dave's Auto & Light Truck Electrical & Mechanical Repairs will get all of my future mechanic business! It was just an awesome experience!

I am truly amazed by the service that I received. From the phone call to the visit was phenomenal and professional. Every single employee asked me if I needed anything. They all communicated so well with me. My vehicle was fixed in a timely matter with genuine parts and I even received complementary scents and clean paper mats. Worth every single penny. I am so much happier with my vehicle now thanks to them.

I couldn t be happier with the team and what they did with my 2014 jeep. I ve had many problems finding anyone willing and able to work on it, let alone resolve the issues at hand. David Jr. was personally amazing. He kept me completely up to date, even sent and shared videos throughout the process. He knew me by first name, always knew what he was talking about, and able to explain it in a way that didn t make me feel lost in the jargon. I will ALWAYS take my vehicles there for any problems big and small, I will personally refer them to anyone in need of some vehicle repair or maintenance. And specifically David Jr, the entire team was fantastic, but David went above and beyond any expectations I could have had anywhere. I highly recommend!!!

My husband doesn't know about cars. He made the mistake of telling this to Dave's Auto. I on the other hand know my cars. I know my car needed a new M.A.P Sensor. We have been looking for someone who would be able to do it on a Saturday. Someone at this shop told my husband that he needed to pay $189 up front for a diagnostic. Then it would be extra for the parts and labor. To do a M.A.P Sensor replacement, it should only cost about $210 at the most. The part is $74 and labor is less then 30min. I use to replace them before. I can't do it anymore due to an car accident that has damage my back. Shame on your company for taking advantage.

I am not a person who usually writes posts, but I have to write this about Dave's Auto Shop. These guys have been a great help. They went above and beyond customer service. I am in another state and my mother is in Florida. She is 83 and she has limited mobiliy. They were so helpful and made me feel like she was the most important customer. Thank you to Dave,Mario and Tony. I will definitely keep coming back for the expert service.

I had the absolute best experience taking my car to Dave! He was able to fix my car for over $2000 less than was quoted to me by the dealer. Not only did he fix the problem, I also received my car back detailed and a scratch on the front buffed out. Dave and the whole team were so nice and I will definitely be taking my car back again when I need more work done.

I have had a lot of distrust with car shops. But Dave's Auto shop is an exception, they took their time and found the exact problems with my car and fixed them.They also let me test drive my car with their technicians to let me ask questions and make sure the problem is fixed.

I went out this morning for a quick errand and needed to roll down my window but then it refused to go back up. Thankfully Dave's was nearby and open and had it fixed within 3 hours of it breaking. Friendly crew and cost was not much more than my hopeful quote I tried to calculate in my head. Flexible payment options too, he let me pay with Zelle. Definitely first call next time I have a problem! When you're pulling in, go to the left and take a right past O'Reilly's.

Tony was honest and communicative, excellent customer service. He worked with us on pricing as our car needed major work. Our car was handed over to us repairs and cleaned! Finally a garage who keeps you informed of services needed and pricing every step of the way, no surprises!9Service: A/C installation & repairService: A/C installation & repair

Dave's was recommend to my husband and I when we were in need of having our car serviced. We've since been there on two separate occasions. There are very polite, professional, and they do a thorough job in making sure your car gets the service it needs. There prices are reasonable and fair. My husband an I would definitely recommend Dave's to any and everybody who needs any type if work done to there car. And they will forever be our auto repair shop of choice when it comes to our car needs.

This is the best family mechanic in Orlando. Dave's Auto repaired many maintenance items on my 2002 Toyota Tacoma. I've owned this truck since almost new. It has 165,000 miles and was running and handling roughly. I had a neighborhood mechanic that I trusted for many years who died recently and his shop hasn't been the same since. I've had my cars serviced and I got several estimates for work from different shops nearby, hoping to find an honest and expert shop that can identify and care for what's needed to keep our vehicles running well - but without upselling or overselling a job. Dave checks all the boxes. He and his crew took great care to look over my truck, identify what it would take to fix my concerns and also identify some important and not-so-important things I could do to stay within my budget. The work was done fast (it was a lot of work) and he even was able to squeeze in a couple of extra items in the budget at no additional cost.When I got the truck back, I was astonished to see how much work was done compared to what it would have cost at a competing shop and my truck drives like a dream. It also is cleaner now than when I dropped it off. They cleaned out the engine bay and detailed it to shiny - new. Amazing.I made 3 visits to Dave's shop in the time the truck was there. Each time there was a bustling group of skilled mechanics working hard who also greeted me with a smile and a fist bump or hand shake.I simply won't take my truck anywhere else now and I am so glad I found my new mechanic for life.Services: Transmission, Electrical repair, Steering & suspension repair, Auto side window replacement, General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Auto engine tuning, Auto brake repair, Vehicle Inspection, Brakes, Auto maintenance, Auto brake replacement

I went in to see about my car. Dave drove us around in the car to what the issue was. He was kind and engaged in a fun conversation. Before I ended up spending unnecessary money, he suggested that I check for a warranty on my car and I have one. The kindness was unparalleled and the information he gave me was so appreciated. Whatever my dealership doesn't cover I will absolutely come back here because of their honesty, kindness, and professionalism. Bring your car here. I would be surprised if their were better mechanics around. Can't wait to come back. Thank you again

Dave is awesome and kind. He was willing to work with whatever payment plan we had. He called to inform us about the necessary repairs, step by step and advised what action we should take. I'm positive his other customers will feel the same .

I found this shop on Google and when I read the reviews I gave it a try. By far best shop I ve gone too in Orlando.I came for an ac repair and a set of new tires. David was very helpful in finding me the right tires for my car and he also provided excellent customer service. Dave the owner is very professional,honest, and very passionate about his customers. I definitely recommend this shop. I will definitely be returning for any future services.Service: Air conditioning

GREAT experience, I'd been to 3 different mechanics, paying each for services they didn't correctly repair. I came in hesitant, everyone was friend and made me feel comfortable leaving my vehicle the 4th time..... and took me home while waiting for repair. Dave and Tony were great, my car works great.... and was washed when I picked it up. Definitely will recommended Dave's Auto.

Got Dave to do some work for me that a previous shop had fixed, they got it done in 2 days(including dealing with the insurance). When I picked my car up she was cleaned up and running good. I had my rack and pinion replaced on my 2001 pontiac Grand Prix gt, couldn t have asked for a better service!
