Very knowledgeable.
I have taken my car to Chico Car Care for years. This last time I went in, my car needed significant repairs. Dan worked with me to get my car safely back on the road. He listened to my concerns and my needs and addressed those. I trust that when he says something needs to be done that it really needs to be done. He…
It was time for maintenance, oil change, etc. Chico Car care ran a special that included much more. They checked many fluids, hoses, tires, and more. The work is quality and done on time.
Excellent service from management and technician.
Best service in Chico
Absolutely amazing service. Friendly, to the point, no BS. Gave me a list of "things to do right now" for maintenance on my 2013 Prius V and a small "recommended to do soon" list. Did all the important things for a very reasonable price considering all that was done, and all in one afternoon! Exactly what I was…
This is the only automotive repair shop that I use for my car. It's honest, timely, and very forthcoming with what needs immediate attention and what can wait. And they do not try to add repairs that are not needed at all and that's something we all need to be able to count on and is rare in this type of business.
I’ve been taking my car to Dan for several years. They are efficient, kind and reliable. I always know that I will be well taken care of and trust their unwavering professionalism.
I wish I could give more stars! Highly recommend. One of the few shops that are experts at Prius’s. Dan has amazing communication skills and is honest, fair and trustworthy. The entire staff is friendly and knowledgeable. We are lucky to have them in our community.
Excellent, friendly service on my 2017 Prius. Highly recommended.
I’ve used Chico Car Care to service my car since I moved to Chico in 2018. They’ve always done a great job, communicate things in a timely manner, and get the job done quickly.
I can’t say enough positive words about Dan, David, and everyone at Chico Car Care! They just serviced and repaired my Lexus and it feels like it is brand new! They are honest and fair and always go the extra step to help. Why? Because that is the way they are. I have taken my car to Dan for many years now and you…
Great service as always. Been a patron of this establishment for 3.5 years now. I know that my 2014 Tacoma is in good hands and will last until my 10 year-old son gets his license, and many years beyond. Friendly staff, all that good stuff. Fair pricing on services—remember, you’re supporting a LOCAL BUSINESS here.…
I have been going to Chico Care Care for many many years. They have kept my 2007 4 runner in tip top shape. I recommend them to everyone I can. Dan and his team are knowledgeable, effective, and very honest.
Dan and the rest of the crew are very well trained, reliable, honest, and courteous. The work they’ve done on my cars has been done been excellent. I can always depend on them to do the job correctly and professionally.
I have been taking my car to Chico Car Care for years and years, and will continue to. Their prices are extremely fair. The folks there are so courteous and competent, and they never talk down to me because I'm a woman. Great place!
I took my Subaru to Chico Car Care. I am very satisfied with the service of my car. They were very thorough and attentive with excellent communication. The price was considerably lower than the Subaru dealership for the same maintenance service. I will definitely return for future service of my car.
Once again Dan and David at Chico Car Care solved my problem in a timely fashion. I arrived in a cloud of steam and they replaced my radiator, thermostat and hoses. And gave the car a special “for the road trip”.It was a peaceful drive home not having to watch the temperature gauge rising but rather knowing I was safe and ready for travel!
Love Chico Car Care. Always been accommodating and fair.
I was referred to Dan at Chico Car Care by somebody I trust in the auto sales industry. I had a car I bought used have a check engine light issue that had some worrisome symptoms associated with it. The intake person was very thorough in taking notes on what was going on with the vehicle. Dan took his time…
