Javier is so polite and professional. He was able to answer all my questions, did not rush me off the phone like other shops. Also his prices are the best and most affordable in town for sure. He was able to diagnose my friends car same day no hassle . Will definitely be recommending him to others. His reviews speak for themselves . Thanks again .
My car stopped running normally and wasn't safe to be on the road. I reached out to Javier and he listened to my concerns, helped me with directions to tow, & had my car running smoothly in no time! I didn't have to worry about unnecessary charges or communication - Javier sent updates through the process, made the invoice simple, and even put air in my tire without being asked to.
I will be coming back the next time we need a fix and recommending his shop to my family & friends. Thank you for a great first experience!

Javier is the absolute best! He helped me diagnose my cars problem, tried to see if it was something simple that I could even fix. When it turned out to be a bad starter helped me line up a great towing company and got us back on the road within hours! Hands down, call Gonzalez Family Auto! You won’t be sad you did!

So reasonable, so efficient! My 2023 Rogue had some engine issues tangentially related to a recall. Dealership would only fix what they had to and Mr. González got us back up and running again! He was also able to install a new display after mine had gotten cracked in a sort of freak occurrence. We’ve never had to wait too long and we are so glad to have found them!!
