Took my truck in after another shop refused to work on it and told me I needed major work which would have costed thousands. Davids star not only immediately found the issue but also were honest and saved me money. They even got the truck running and leak free same day! I was very happy with the professionalism and customer service. They take pride in their work which is hard to find now a days. 5 stars all around!

Very Customer Oriented. Very honest People. My repair was a tough one with a hard to locate part. The David's Star Crew, especially Donovan, were Up Front about this Challenge and went at it with Diligence. When finding that part proved to be a tough go? I didnt get a fake delivery date, even when I expressed My Own Frustration, Donovan was Respectful and just kept Going After It. He got it Done. In the End the Repair was High Quality. It even came in under the estimated price! These aren't just good Mechanics, They're Good, Highly Ethical People. I Recommend Them Sincerely.

I ve been going to David s Star Auto for a couple of years now and I was recommended by my father who has been going to them for several years. They always do an amazing job! As a woman, it s hard to find shops that are honest and trustworthy and I ve had my fair share of horror stories at previous places. I definitely hit a goldmine here. It s also a plus that I get to hang out their cat, Rusty, when I m waiting for my oil change :)

Great service at an affordable price! Had to have my car towed over by AAA due to 2 flat tires. David Star assessed my tires and replaced them and got me back on the road in record time. Fast service at a reasonable price!

This shop was great! After breaking down over an hour from my home and having so much trouble just getting a tow I wasn't expecting anything to be easy. They called me first thing the next morning and get started right away. They called me and kept me updated, and fixed it for fat less than I expected.

I came to David's recently due to great word of mouth. When I called to schedule an appointment, Donovan was very understanding and accommodating. I didn't expect near immediate service. This is a busy shop, but they made me feel like a priority. Communication was great throughout, and turnaround time was very good. They use Napa parts, which I appreciate. They didn't try to upsell or pressure me into anything additional. Overall they exceeded my expectations. I have no complaints and will happily return. Definitely recommend David's, really good people and service.

I m relatively new to the area and was looking for a local mechanic. I found David s star through a Google search and saw the great reviews, plus it s very close to my place of employment. I decided to give them a try and I wasn t disappointed! Not only is the work that was done on my car great, but their good communication and overall friendly demeanor made the whole process go smoothly. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

My wheelchair accessible van broke down right by this shop. I'm new to the area and had no idea what kind of shop this was going to be like. Honestly I couldn't have gone to a better place! They were super accommodating and understanding of my situation. Donavan and David are great people and being new to Erie County, I feel like I found my new go to mechanic! Thanks for everything. A+

I've been going to this mechanic since I was 18 with my first car, and they have always done great work for years. I couldn't recommend this place enough. A special thanks to the Don's who have always taken care of me. Thanks David. You guys have been a life saver multiple times. Best mechanic in Buffalo as far as I'm concerned. :)

I've gotten a good amount of work done here and I get great service every time! Donovan is really nice and the prices are reasonable. This is now my go to repair shop for whenever I need it. As a side note, they have a super adorable and soft kitty that's super friendly<3Services: General repairs & maintenance, Auto brake repair, Vehicle safety inspection, Brake service & repair, Oil changeServices: General repairs & maintenance, Auto brake repair, Vehicle safety inspection, Brake service & repair, Oil change

Brought my plow truck here after a storm necessitated some unexpected repairs despite knowing nothing about the shop & I couldn't be happier about it. Experience was fantastic from start to finish. Staff was courteous and knowledgeable. Shop was accomodating given the situation and very fair with pricing. Communication was top notch. Quite literally, I can't say enough good things about the place and will absolutely be bringing in vehicles for necessary service in the future.Services: Steering & suspension repair, Steering & suspension replacement, Auto engine tuning, Auto maintenance

I called to set up an appointment to get my car inspected and was able to set up an appointment the next week. Once my car was inspected, Donovan sent over a very thorough diagnosis page complete with photos! He then called me and explained each point and asked if I wanted to go ahead and get the work done. For the amount of work that was done and the professionalism shown, it was worth every penny. My car drives like it s brand new! They also have a very sweet orange cat, Rusty, that roams around the shop! So cute!Services: General repairs & maintenance, Vehicle Inspection, Oil change

Great service! I was towed early in the morning after my car broke down on a road trip and they were able to look at my car and get it fixed immediately. They went above and beyond to make sure I could continue my trip safely. Excellent team!Service: General repairs & maintenanceService: General repairs & maintenance

I finally found mechanics I can really trust. David s Star staff are true professionals. They are customer service oriented, reliable, and do great work at a reasonable price. They confirm appointments and even followup with a text to make sure you are pleased with their work. If you re tired of being taken advantage of and overpaying for unnecessary work at other shops, give Dave s a try and you ll see and feel the difference. Anddd you ll love being greeting by their office , Rusty.Service: General repairs & maintenance

David's Star Automotive does it again! Great service...brought my 3500 Ram Van in because of a cranking no start and they got it fixed. Also the backup camera and backup lights were not getting power when I put the van in reverse...they got that fixed! In addition the running boards were flapping around in the wind and were unusable and they were able to weld new supports on and bolt down the running boards....rock solid now! Oh yeah....and then performed the NYS saftey inspection and got this old van to pass no problem! Finally I asked about my Volvo V70's transmission issues and they were able to refer me to the best transmission guys in the area, sorry to go on and on but these guys are unbelievable! In a very good way.Thank you!Sincerely, SteveServices: Carburetor cleaning, Auto body & trim repair, Electrical repair, General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Auto engine tuning, Body & Trim, Vehicle Inspection, Vehicle safety inspection, Auto maintenance, Oil change

Very prompt and friendly service with reasonable prices. I had a minor emergency with a warning light that came on and I didn't feel comfortable driving with that condition and they got me in immediately to evaluate what repairs were needed. Great service and didn't try to upsell me anything I didn't need.Service: General repairs & maintenanceService: General repairs & maintenance

Davids star auto IV been going to since the original owner and it has drastically improved since Dave took over the buisness he's not only the owner he's also a great and honest mechanic unlike most and the staff as well as Dave are very cheerful and nice people and won't sugar coat things for you but will also let you know a ruff estimate of how much time you may or may not have before something needs to be fixed or replaced unlike other places like Firestone and some other shops iv been to in the past and there parts are as good as they get since there a Napa parts shop and the work is very well done I like that the owner Dave works right along side the other technicians which Dave's shop is also an ASE certified technicians shop which is as good as it gets they can do pretty much anything . It's a smaller shop so u may want to make an appointment but there worth waiting a few days if need be and u can always drop it car off and theyl work on it when they have the time between if they can when there booked up so they try vary hard to take care of everyone as timely as possible Iv been a customer to David's star auto for almost all of my vehicles new and used for years now and will not goto any other shop and David's star auto is very knowledgeable and theyl explain things to you in a way u can understand besides the technical terms . And they are even more convenient because they as far as I know still offer U-Haul services and also offer storage on there storage lot which is fenced in with security cameras etc for a monthly fee whether for the winter or any scenario you'd need to store a vehicle . I give this shop 5 stars because the work is in my opinion honest and quality work and parts as well the technicians themselves and there receptionist Donovan is very nice as well and polite and is also knowledgeable to any questions you may have and If he doest hell find out right away from one of the techs so at David's star auto they are all about customer care and honesty/integrity I refer anyone I know or those who ask with car troubles to goto David's star auto and hopefully this review will bring more customers so if u want an honest shop David's star auto is the place to go right on Hopkins in south buffalo near tift st . And another great thing I learned is the owner also does a fireworks sale at Hamburg Walmart and some of the proceeds goto charity which is very admirable so the owner and shop crew and shop as a whole is truly the best shop iv been to over the years and also they are a AAA offiliated shop for those with AAA.Services: Exhaust, Tires, Steering & suspension repair, Auto exhaust system repair, General repairs & maintenance, Steering & suspension replacement, Auto engine diagnostic, Tire rotations, Vehicle Inspection, Wheel alignment, Brakes, Auto tire replacement, Vehicle safety inspection, Oil change

Dave and his staff are kind and efficient. They always get me in a timely manner. Anna is very polite and very informative about the work that needs to be done. I have known Don Haley for many years, he is the most honest mechanic I have ever met. I am not surprised he would work for Dave. Recently I went for an oil change and met a new staff member, he is very personal and engaging. I would recommend David's Star Automotive to anyone. Honest, Fair Pricing, Easy Appointments and Friendly. You can't beat that.

Exceptional service at the front office and in the shop. Couldn't be happier with my experience, and will be taking any of my other of my vehicles to be serviced there in the future. Shop rate is on par with the rest of the shops in the area and weren't looking to just fix my junker and on to the next. I knew everything wrong with my vehicle and best course of action to take from the get go. Trust you can't buy!!!

David cares about his customers. Very friendly people working behind the counter. Good service with prices that are par & fair for the business. You cannot go wrong bringing your vehicle here or renting a U-Haul. Great location in South Buffalo not far from Lackawanna. He also has specials from time to time...

We are very unhappy with the service we have received at David's shop. You may refer to a Better Business Bureau complaint we made on 2/15/2021. We have been going to this shop for quite some time, but due to the dishonesty and unprofessionalism we will no longer return. The fact that we were told by his shop that our battery was bad, and then we are driving around with the same battery 7 months later, speaks volume on professionalism. This is one issue of so many more.Services: Electrical repair, General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic, Battery

I have been going here for years and have always been a very satisfied customer!!! The quality of their work has always been excellent because of the value of not settling for less in their parts and service, they have always acted in a very professional yet family oriented way and still do and are very punctual in getting the job done when they say.... so yes I am a very Happy and satisfied customer!!! Kudos to you David Star Automotive team!

Had to get the first work done on my Jeep since I purchased it, and remembered my mom always taking our old chevy venture here. They were friendly and informative, and for the amount of work I ended up needing, I dropped it off after an overnight shift and everything was fixed same day! So glad to have a great local mechanic, AAA discount is pretty nice too!
