Good expertise across many of the areas of the car needing inspection or service. Cost was higher than expected, but this is in the center of town so there are not a lot of alternatives.

I started using Kens Automotive in 2022. I found them via my neighborhood Facebook page. I noticed that every time someone posted about needing an automotive shop: Kens was always mentioned. The words/reviews that folks stated were always great! I have an automobile from the late 90’s. I actually had to get a jump…

I have been taking my car to Ken’s for almost 10 years and have never been disappointed with their work. Pricing has always seemed reasonable.

Ken’s Auto is very trustworthy. I have two older vehicles that I can drive confidently because Ken and his team maintain them. I appreciate everyone’s kindness and professionalism especially Sy, Sky and Ken.

Working with these guys was great. They went carefully through all possible scenarios to fix my a/c to try and save me money. When it turned out to be an expensive repair they ordered a part that was not the most expensive but was reliable. They worked quickly and were very good at communicating with me. I would totally recommend them.
