I can count on Dave Power Automotive for reasonably priced services. They stand behind their work and make sure I’m a satisfied customer. We brought each one of our cars here over the years and like the personal interactions for our questions. I recommend this as a 5 star trusted & reliable service.
These boys are awesome. Really took care of me. I will always use them and highly recommend them to others.
Ive used Power Automotive and Marine for my mechanic needs for years. They've never let me down, their staff is knowledgable and friendly, and they do a quality and thorough job.
Dave Power and his workers provide great value. I had a 25 year old car towed in, and they brought it back to road worthy. Brakes, muffler, tie rods, and a few other tweaks and I was on my way.
The technician did a nice job fixing the turn signal switch. Suggested a couple other items to take care of.
You were knowledgeable, right on the money and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you for making my headlamp problems not seem like so much. Again you rock Dave
