I've been going to Don for over 15 years now, and he has always done great and fast work at a fair price! I would never take my car anywhere else!

Don is a straight shooter and very knowledgeable mechanic! Had to get a new alternator put in my '06 Subaru Forrester. Dropped it off at noon on a weekday and it was done in less than 24 hours. Prices are standard going-rate but they seem very knowledgeable over here and are super quick! Will be using Don's in the future thanks guys!

Don's Auto is amazing. New to the area, needed an oil change and engine light was on. Dropped car off, one hour later it was ready to go. Asked me what I wanted to do with check engine light before working on it. Great service, very reasonable price, would recommend everyone to come here.
