Customers frequently cite prompt service, clear communication, and competitive pricing for repairs ranging from oil changes to complex suspension work. The shop is often noted for thorough diagnostics and professional staff who keep clients informed. However, a minority of reviews describe instances of poor workmanship, such as vehicle damage, and express frustration over unexpected upselling or a lack of communication during the repair process.

I have trust that the work needed will be done correctly. The service over the years increased the manufactured status quo. For example, the miles per gallon went from 53.5 to 54.5 increase! Nice to wait in a reception area that is clean.
Able to do my oil change right away and completed in less than the stated time. Excellent!
DNA is my go to shop here in Marin county! Whether you go to the location in SR or Novato you can rest assured that you are going to receive great service from a great bunch of people that work there. They are friendly and helpful. The prices are good as well. Check them out.
Brought my 2019 Dodge Journey in for a transmission service. Hector was awesome, helped me out in no time to get the car fixed and ready to hit the road. Shout out to the mechanics who did a job well done. Highly recommend getting your vehicle serviced here.
Excellent service!!!Excellent customer service!!! #1in Marin county. Very professional.
The motor for the window on the passenger side of my Jeep gave out. I had been going to All Auto but had a bad communication experience with the owner. I called DNA Automotive and spoke with Oscar. Dropped off the Jeep and had it back by the end of the day. The communication was fantastic. They even came back with potential issues to consider. I plan to continue to use DNA Automotive going forward.
We're so glad we came to DNA for our complex suspension swap for our van. Their ability to execute this project AND identify collateral issues paid off in improving the ride of our van. Communication was stellar from the start and pricing was very competitive. As San Rafael residents we couldn't be happier to finally find a shop we can trust and support.
Amazing service
Very happy for the second time using DNA for a tire repair! Highly recommend!
Antonio was super patient and helpful in diagnosing several issues with my truck. All good now - thanks! Dave
