Novick Automotive

"After moving to the Denver area and having vehicle issues I had the terrible experience of finding a few bad mechanics before I got lucky and found Mike. He's a fantastic person who will treat you like family. He is incredibly knowledgeable and communicates exceptionally well. I will not be going to another location to service any of my vehicles as long as he is in business since he genuinely cares, and always provides excellent service at an affordable and competitive price. Mike at Novick automotive is the definition of an honest mechanic."

"I have used Novick 3 times and had a great and transparent experience each time. Would highly recommend."

"We called Mike with a question about a busted head gasket that we were informed needed to be replaced by an oil change shop. He asked us many questions and based on our situation, informed us the findings were likely normal. And that we probably didn't need the repair at this time. We were extremely impressed by his honesty and integrity. If we do need work done on our vehicle we will definitely call him as he seems very trustworthy!"

"Excellent mechanic! Honest, responsive, detailed, accommodating, affordable, friendly, and most importantly, does great work! I have taken my used 2008 Toyota 4Runner to Mike and his team twice now and have been delighted each time. First - a note on the car - I got this car as a “gift” and it’s pretty much a lemon. Over 200k midwest/Chicago miles on it making it a rust bucket. Rust bore a hole through the transmission causing it to dump all its fluid seizing the transmission - so I had to replace that within a month of getting it (had that work done in Glenwood Springs as that’s where the car died) but a host of other issues too. It had never had a full looksie by a trained mechanic so I dropped it off with Novick last year on my way to DEN for Thanksgiving vacation. This worked great for me because (1) it means I wouldn’t be without my car / he could work on it while I was away (2) car was ready by the time I flew back (3) didn’t have to pay for airport parking - Mike was happy to keep it in his lot without any extra charge while I was away; and (4) Mike even dropped me off at the nearest RTA/A train stop with all my bags so I could catch my flight on time….which saved me the time and cost of getting an Uber and was really just going above and beyond. Mike called me once he had a chance to look at my car and went over exactly what he looked at, what he didn’t, and what was wrong with the car. Now, I’m not a car person - so what I found really helpful was him taking the time to explain each item to me and what he thought needed fixing and what could go longer / wait for a later date. He also presented me with several options that would allow me to save money on the repairs as well as gave me some tips / answered questions on how to prolong the life of the car and take better care of it. Exceptional service! As for repairs, he did an oil change, tune-up (spark plugs, coil boots, compression check, air cleaner element), new serpentine belt/alternator drive belt, fluids and tire pressure as well as some more major work, including replacing the front axel shaft assembly (shaft, boots and joints), wheel hubs (R&I steering knuckle, bearings, cups, seals), CV driveshaft, resonator and pipe assembly. The muffler had totally rusted off after the catalytic converter which Mike was able to repair/Jerry-rig back together saving me the cost of getting a new tail pipe. The car was also throwing all sorts of EVAP codes - which can be a costly repair - but Mike properly diagnosed it to be from burnt wires that the exhaust from my broken tail pipe had melted. He replaced the wires and EVAP problem solved, again, saving me a bundle of money. The spare tire assembly had also rusted completely solid which he was able to cut off and replace with a part I purchased online, again saving me money. And finally, he replaced the engine and cabin filters with ones I bought from Walmart again saving me money. In addition to all that, he put together a detailed quote on what else needed to be done but that I could hold off on for a little bit longer. 7,000 miles later everything is holding up and running great except for my brakes were starting to get squishy and I was overdue for an oil change. So I brought it in, again, timing it with a flight out of town so that I wouldn’t be without my car and not have to pay for airport parking while away from town. In addition to the oil change, Mike was able to determine the squishy brakes were caused by a faulty part from the previous work he did on the front axle so he redid everything for free / under warranty, which is awesome. I didn’t even have to ask or plead my case - he automatically stands behind his work and does what’s right by the customer. He also bent my skid plate back into place (must have gotten caught on something after a bolt rusted off/broke/fell off), rotated tires, did a full inspection and told me about some things to keep my eye on but that I could hold off on. No sales pitch, up-charging, or unnecessary work! For a phenomenal mechanic, pick Novick!"

"Mike is an awesome mechanic! He's very honest and fair with pricing and explains everything! Any time I've had concerns about my car, he's been more than willing to check. I feel great knowing I no longer have to search for a mechanic that's honest!"
