When you find a good one, you tell people about it. Dykstra's auto took all the worry out of what is usually a stressful situation. They are friendly, professional, quick and very reasonably priced. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an honest mechanic.

Dykstra’s is the ONLY place I will bring my vehicles in Grand Rapids. Truly the best around and they always put the customer first. They’ve replaced my stolen catalytic converter, brakes, oil changes, etc. and it’s always done as if they were working on their own cars. I recommend EVERYONE to Dykstra’s!!

There was some delay in the repair due to unusual circumstances, but I was able to get a loaner vehicle from them, and they gave me a price cut for my inconvenience. They also worked to keep costs down but did a good job. I highly recommend them for car repair needs.

Dewey and his team are excellent. I trust them and have found them to be helpful even when I was not a customer and now for sure. They take pride in their work and are very careful with these sanitary guidelines we are going through as well as being very thoughtful around repairs and making sure they've addressed the core problem. I'm glad they are open.
