Nokomis Auto Center 570 Central Avenue, Nokomis, FL 34275

"5 stars to Dave at Nokomis Auto Repair (and his dog Beau!). My van alternator died, leaving me stranded 2 hours away from home. I called Dave to see if he could replace it for me, and, hearing my situation, he agreed. He was fully booked with jobs for other clients but rearranged things to fit me in immediately, even though it meant he had to work past closing time. Instead of having me wait the 3 hours it took for him to do the work, he gave me a ride to a restaurant on the bay where I could hang out until he was done. When he finished, he phoned me and came to pick me up. I was so touched by his kindness and by the quality of his work. He works on his own, so Nokomis Auto Center is a one-man show. It is heart-warming to receive this client-centered service and to support a local business like Dave’s Nokomis Auto Center. I recommend him highly!"

"Dave easily diagnosed our car issue and fixed it the next day. What could have been a ruined vacation was saved by Dave. I highly recommend Nokomis Auto Care for a great local car repair place. You just don't find them like this anymore."

"OK, if you are in the area ,OR NOT, and you need work on your car, truck etc this is the guy to see. I would drive up from ft Myers just so he would do the work. Very, very,very satisfied. Dave is a one man shop and knows what to do"

"Was travelling from Pennsylvania and developed brake problems that needed addressed right away. Read other reviews and thought would try this placed. Called and Dave, the owner operator of the business, got me in and made my business a priority. I described what was happening and he examined the problem. Explained what it was, quoted a price that he stuck to, and fixed the problem the same afternoon. Dave was knowledgable, informative, friendly, and professional. Would recommend without reservation."

"A business associate recommended Nokomis Auto Center to me some 25 years ago, and I’ve been taking my cars and trucks there ever since. New cars are against my religion, and Dave and all the other mechanics have gone the extra mile to humor me and take care of all my older vehicles, keeping them running smoothly and safely until it’s finally time to say goodbye. I’ve learned that I can totally trust their recommendations on repair alternatives, and the price is always very reasonable. They give the old-fashioned, small-town, honest, reliable, friendly, “we know our reputation depends on treating our customers right — like family” service."
