Move to San Luis Obispo a couple of years ago and went to Dave's for a smog check. Have been bringing my cars here since. Dave is honest and straightforward - there've been a couple of times he hasn't charged me to look at things when I thought he should have charged me. I'd recommend him to all my friends.

I have been going to Dave since I moved to the area. He is straight forward, reliable and affordable. I trust him with my vehicles completely. If there is anything he can’t do, his referrals are always great. Cannot recommend Dave’s shop more!

Really great! Dave is honest and kind. As a woman who doesn't know too much about cars, I have never felt taken advantage of. The prices are fair and the service is amazing. Schedule maintenance checks in advance as they're very busy.I have brought in two cars for service and Dave has provided excellence service for both. I just got an oil change and the price was much cheaper than other service places and the tire rotation is included. I was told the oil change would only take 45 minutes which was accurate. Great, speedy, and quality service.

Dave is honest, knowledgeable and reasonably priced-- everything you want in a mechanic. When we first came to him, his quote was significantly less than what the dealership cited for the same work. Highly recommend.

Excellent service and quality workmanship. As a woman, I could've been taken advantage of (though I'm pretty familiar with cars because my uncles, father, and a previous boyfriend were familiar with being underneath a hood) by an auto repairman. Not the case with Dave. He was honest and straightforward with what the problem was with the blower to my heater and A/C and the low battery power. He didn't make any money on a replacement battery and, instead, recommended that I use the remaining warranty and have it replaced at the dealership. His fee for the heater/AC repair was very reasonable. Most of all he's an all-around really nice guy. I'm very impressed with his auto repair shop in SLO (located off of Sacramento and parallel Broad St. near the old "Graduate"). Highly recommend this service.

MY boyfriend and I were stuck in the rain when our car broke down. By the time we got it towed to Dave's Automotive he was closed. We left it on his lot. The next day he determined the problem and somehow was able to fit fixing it into his very busy day because we were leaving in 2 days on a short car trip. His work Is always excellent and prices very reasonable. Dave is a small business owner in our city and his ethics are excellent. I trust him with my automobile and I highly recommend Dave's Automotive in San Luis Obispo CA.

I needed to have my brakes done and Meineke quoted me $879, telling me that the rotors were shot. A friend recommended Dave's, so I made an appointment and boy, am I glad I did! Dave said the rotors were fine and did the front and back brakes for $400 - that's less less than half of the quote I got from the other guy!

I can see why Dave's ratings are so high. He is such a professional as well as so knowledgeable. This business is an SLO/ Central Coast treasure for sure. Their customer service is excellent. I am grateful that Dave went out of his way to research a vehicle for me and my family. Thanks, Traci B.
