Amazing customer service, communication, and quality of work. They worked on my car after multiple shops gave me run around diagnosis. They communicated clearly on timelines and I always knew what the status of my vehicle was. I won’t go anywhere else.

We learned about Dave Power Automotive through word of mouth from a friend, and now they have my business. Great service! Dave Power Automotive is honest and trustworthy.…
