Dorso’s was clear and detailed about everything that my truck needed. After a total of 175,000 miles I confidently say that Dorso’s has been the biggest factor in my truck driving smoothly and strong. I can’t thank Dorso’s enough, especially the rise in auto costs! I’m crossing my fingers for another 100,000 miles…

Not good experience. I’ve been there three times. I come back each time feeling I got taken advantage of. I have an older vehicle, a 2013 accord, so of course it’s not gonna be perfect. They add “optional” and “recommended” items on every visit even for very minor things. Can’t do oil change without additives. Can’t…

Once again a great service. Dorso’s is always thorough in their inspections and flawless in their execution, which makes a huge difference for my really old car, not only for its repairs, but especially prevention too. Very friendly staff.

With the new COVID guidelines still in effect, it was a bit of a challenge to get the appointment set up. The owner works at the shop, but has his off-site manager try and do the calls. A lot of back and forth. Tedious and a bit unnecessary. I did an 75k tune-up, and get an issue fixed. It was a lot more than I…
