Transmission Repair near Dixon, CA

“I apologize ahead of time for the long review, but hopefully this will show what a great mechanic Dave is. By far the best mechanic we have ever met. We have used Dave for multiple vehicles with different issues. I brought in a 2006 Hyundai Sonata that had a ton of issues. He told me that he could fix it, but it would not be cost-effective for me when the repairs cost more than the car itself since it’s an older car. He also let me know that after the repair was done, another part could fail shortly after due to the condition of the car. He was extremely honest and you could tell right away he knew what he was doing. He said he would gladly do the work if I wanted but said if I was in a position to look for a new car, I should do that. We ended up buying a new vehicle and when that vehicle needed new brakes, we brought it in. He quoted me a price and when I came to pick up the car, my invoice was significantly less than what he had originally quoted. I can honestly say I’ve never had somebody charge less than the quote. He said it took less labor than what was listed and it was an easy job. I then brought a vehicle in for a leak and he told me how my husband could fix the leak at home and then I could come back and he would fix it if we couldn’t do it ourselves. I really appreciated that he could have immediately charged me to do the fix rather than told me that but instead he tried to help us out. We ended up not being able to fix it ourselves and went back to him. His quote was very fair, and for the exact same repair the dealership had quoted me FIVE times the amount that Dave did it for. I can’t stress enough to go here for anything minor or major. In this world honesty and fairness seem to be hard to find, but not at Independent. Also, he is the only person in the shop, so if he doesn’t answer leave a message or stop by!”

“I had a little accident on my way to Yoga class and one of my tires was broken. I was so lucky because I decided to call this place. After explaining what happened, they told me that I could bring my car there any time before they close the shop at 7pm. I got there at 6pm and got a really good deal to replace the broken tire with a used tire. I am deeply grateful and highly recommend this place to any one who has a problem with your car.”

“Well, I committed blasphemy and took my 1966 Mustang Fastback to Corvette Express ?. In all seriousness, I needed help with the tuning on my carburetor. This place was phenomenal! They welcomed me right away, kept me appraised on the progress every step of the way (the task ended up being much more than just a simple tune), and their professionalism and kindness was exceptional. My car runs great and they even followed up with a call to check on my level of satisfaction a few weeks later. I guess it just goes to show you, classic car people are just cool, no matter one’s brand loyalty. Anyways, if you need honest work done on your car, I’d highly recommend the team at Corvette Express; they’re great!”

“Honest, reliable and reasonably cost. I don’t like taking my cars to a lot of shops because they are not honest. These guys have always done right by me and have not tried to up charge. I recommend this place to my friends.”
