greatest auto store in California. they are honest and transparent. will never recommend anything that is unnecessary. fantastic group
Dorso’s did a great job fixing a noisy fan motor for interior heating and cooling, plus they successfully diagnosed a tire pressure sensor problem and replaced faulty tire pressure sensors for all four tires that were original equipment but due for change out after 12 years and 122,000 miles. Dorso’s is great for…
Always a pleasure working with Rick and Joe!
Rick and Joe are very knowledgeable. Gave me a complete overview of my GTO. Dropped off car in the morning and picked up in afternoon. Always keeping me informed of vehicles condition. Dorsos has taken great care of all are vehicles over 20 years
If you don't want to worry about your car breaking down on long trips, then service your car at Dorso's Automotive Repair, Fremont. My husband and I have been taking our vehicles to Dorso's for over 30 years and have never experienced a break down "on the road". I attribute this to Dorso's using great products,…
Rick the owner and Joe his assistant I’ve known for sometime (20+ yrs) Always a top notch shop, quality work. After retiring from 40yrs of working in the dealership business, this is where I prefer my vehicles to be repaired! 👍
Excellent and prompt work! They don't recommend any unnecessary repairs. Thorough communication about the issues, repairs and costs. Rick is always pleasant talk to and explains everything in detail.
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…
I love the thoroughness of Dorso’s Service. They are professional and reasonably priced. I highly recommend them.
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…
I had my vehicle radiator flushed and replaced fluid and tire rotation and oil changed. It took most of day, but it was worth it.
I can’t say enough good things about this shop. The team here is honest, knowledgeable, and does excellent work every time. They take the time to explain what’s needed (and what isn’t), and I’ve always felt that they truly have my best interest in mind. On top of that, they treat you like family, which is much more…
Brought my car in for check up. Dorso does a complete and through inspection and keeps me informed of my cars condition. Highly recommend.
I consistently receive excellent support at Dorso’s. They fully explain any issues they identify when reviewing my vehicle, and they note which issues should be addressed right away vs. any items that can wait until later. They also do their best to offer cost-effective solutions. I highly recommend Dorso’s.
Top notch service without selling you any extras like the dealership guys. Reasonable prices and great customer relationships. I would definitely continue to use their services in future.
After our long time ( nearly 30 years) go-to auto repair shop was sold to another business, my family and I, went to 2 different auto repair shops for our car maintenance. It was not until Dorsos’s Automotive was highly recommended by our family friend, that we knew this was going to be our go-to repair shop. My…
Always great work and good prices! This is my trusted, go-to mechanic for my 2017 Honda civic.
Joe, Rick and crew really took car of me. I had some deferred maintenance and now my car is running great. The cost is reasonable, and worked with my schedule.
Excellent service, kept us well informed as to service being done. During regular inspection as part of their service found an existing problem which saved us undo wear on front tires. We have been a long time customer and would recommend Dorso’s to any one needing car servicing. Highly professional and above all honest
Always great service. Wonderful team to work with. Total trust in their work. Won't rip you off. I recommend everyone take their vehicles to Dorsos for all your automotive needs.
I have used Dorso’s for years and am very happy with the service they provide.
Another excellent service experience at Dorso's. They always provide exceptional service, thorough explanations of services provided, and a friendly respectful atmosphere. We highly recommend!
DORSO'S is a very good place to take your vehicle. Friendly staff great mechanic. And very reasonably priced.
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.
- Good service, - Good use of technology to keep clients updated - They didn’t add unnecessary repairs to gain more fees from clients.
There is no one we trust more with our cars than Dorso’s
Super friendly staff that go above and beyond. They keep you updated throughout the process. Highly recommended.
The team at Dorso's is awesome. Very thorough and informative. Love the text confirmations and communication as I'm not always available via phone. Accommodating and understanding. Great service all around!
Fantastic service every time I need them.
My vehicle died on the freeway and I had it towed to Dorso's. They couldn't get to it right away but were happy to let me leave it with them. I was pretty sure that the fuel pump was bad and I was right. They diagnosed it quickly and got the repair done, which required draining the fuel and removing the tank, in…
This auto service has been servicing my car for 20 years. I would not trust anyone else to take take of my Chrysler. I give them 2 wrenches up. Thanks to the entire team.
Dorso is the place to go, period ! This review is long overdue . I had problem with my Hyundai Sonata with general repair as well as MUFFLER problem. My car had problem with muffler as well as maintenance. On calling couple of automotive repair shops in fremont , i was quotes too high or vague answers on muffler…
Called because check engine light came on and Joe was able to fit me in car was fixed the next day and runs great again. Thank you
Dorso's Auto Repair is an amazing shop with a great team of professionals who do everything they can to get you back on the road as quickly as is possible. You will be pleased that you chose these guys.
Dorso’s was courteous, quick, as well as efficient at assessing and fixing my older car’s needs so that it drives quite like new again. Would definitely revisit for the quality work and kind staff.
Had an issue with my Ford pickup and took it to Dorso’s, and I’m very pleased with their service in fixing my truck. All around excellent experience, will return if I need work done on my vehicles, and would definitely recommend them to others.
Good snd friendly service
