Tri-Valley Automotive

"I feel very fortunate to have found Tri Valley Automotive. I have a 2002 vehicle with aging problems, but Don, (the owner), gave me options on which things need immediate attention, and which things will need attention in the future, according to my budget. The mechanic has yet to make a mistake, the work is very professional, and leaves my vehicle tidy."

"Don at Tri Valley Automotive is far and away the most honest and efficient mechanic we have ever used. There is not shop talk about performing unnecessary maintenance or repairs. His recommendations have always been accurate and fair through the years. From our 2010 Ford Escape to our current disaster of a vehicle (2017 Lincoln MKZ), Tri Valley Automotive has never steered us in the wrong direction (pun intended). The icing on the cake is the technology they use to communicate what is happening with your vehicle in real time. From the time a mechanic starts working on your car to completion and payment, you will get updates. At the end of the discovery portion of your car's visit, a link is sent via text message. You are taken to a web-based application (no download required) that shows you a complete diagnostic report including what is bad, what will need to be changed in the near future, and what is actually running well. Like an animal that is on the endangered species list, a shop that provides this level of service should be protected and celebrated. I would encourage anyone who is reading this AND has had service to post a review. The Bay Area needs to know about them. As an aside, they also perform routine maintenance and refer out excellent mechanics for the work they do not perform. Well done to the entire team."

"My grandma and I had our cars serviced here. We’re very happy with the service. We will make this our go-to place for our cars from now on. They are very honest, trustworthy and friendly."

"I did a pre-purchase inspection of a used vehicle here and had a fantastic experience. They took the time to hear my particular concerns from the test drive, tell me general information about my make and model, and even take a look at the car's history to see if there were any red flags. They gave me a thorough inspection--they were even able to tell the car had a rodent living in it in the past! Getting my inspection here gave me the peace of mind I needed to move forward with buying my new car."

"Don is a great guy - Professional and gets the job done with quality and at reasonable price. I am going to Tri-Valley from past 3 years. They give nice report of your car’s service with photos and their recommendations what is must fix and what is good to be fixed. Highly recommended!"
