Twice now while I have been in town have I experienced mechanical issues with my beloved Toyota Land Cruiser and both times the folks at Dennis George Automotive have quickly gotten me sorted out and back on the road. They are absolute experts on diagnosing the issue and putting a fix in place as well being consummate professionals. They have earned my complete trust and future business.

Trust Jeff 100% with my and my familys vehicles. If he says it needs done, it does. Whether I want to hear the news or not. He keeps me with a peace of mind that my vehicles are in the best shape possible. Fair prices and great turn around time.

100% recommend! I had an oil leak along with a few other issues and these guys diagnosed it right away. They are great about communication and have reasonable pricing. I have taken a few cars there now and would recommend to everyone looking for some car help.

I have used Dennis George several times so far, and each time it’s been a great experience. They keep me informed, don’t add unnecessary charges and are incredibly nice. They let me know, to the best of their ability, what charges I can expect so there are no surprises. Obviously sometimes that can’t be helped, but they try very hard to be upfront. I will continue to use them for all automotive needs!

My car has a good amount of problems, I know that. Although I didnt get the auto vitals play by play of everything going on, Jeff walked me through the bigger problems I i had and what I needed to know. Hes a straightforward honest guy, Id trust Jeff with my life so why not my car.

Excellent service, extremely helpful. My camry needed a checkup and some work, they got repairs done quickly and went to extra effort to get my car back to me for the weekend. They have been in business in this small town for a long time a really deserve their excellent reputation. I am super pleased!

I have been using Dennis George Automotive for 20+ years. They are professional, helpful, honest, friendly and provide excellent work. They keep you informed about your vehicle with an inspection result, via email, using the “3 color” system. Green - good, Yellow - the following areas need future attention, and Red - the following areas need attention now. This is extremely helpful so you can keep your vehicle in great shape without any unexpected surprises. Keeping you posted, on when your vehicle will be ready for pick up, is helpful so you can plan your day. 😊

We found Dennis George Automotive through AAA. And so glad that they came through for us as our car broke down on the north side of the 395 on our way to a mini vacation driving up to Bishop. It was spewing steam everywhere. We were towed to Dennis George and they promptly diagnosed the problem as a cracked radiator, replaced the part and tested the radiator. They also drive us to Denny’s so we waited in a comfy booth as our car was being serviced. We were so grateful that they were there for us. We were still able to redeem the vacation and drove on to Bishop. Thanks again!!!!

These guys rock! Driving into work in the morning, my trucks water temp started to climb past normal. I was able to find a leak myself. I called them up and told them where and they told me to bring my truck in that morning. They had the new parts on order before I even got there, received them in the afternoon, and had them installed before close. Same day turnaround at a fair price is hard enough to come by, especially in a small town. Would recommend them to anyone.

This is a well run garage. The technicians take the time to answer questions and explain the work needing to be performed, they do so in a very courteous and professional manner.

Had a bad end on a battery cable and wanted an inspection as well. Found some issues with a pulley and a fluid leak. Repairs were made as soon as parts were available. Regular updates by SMS text kept me informed throughout. Overall very happy customer.

Review №25

Generally great service! I liked the photo-based feedback of car’s service status. I added rotation of tires, and the technician also pumped up my tires’ pressure...but he probably did not also check my spare, which caused my car tire pressure warning light to come on while on my trip the next day. A slight annoyance.I’ll be coming back again for my car’s service needs.

Review №29

I had some suspension noise that would be very jarring when going over a speed bump or even just jacking up my car. Prior to taking to Dennis George Automotive, I went to two different shops that “looked” at my car and was told they don’t see anything wrong and that their best guesses would be the control arms. A good chunk of change and some cuts and bruises later from replacing control arms myself, I found it was not the case. Dropped off my car at Dennis George overnight after my shift at work, said I needed it back by 2pm. They found the problem and resolved my suspension noise by 12pm. Just some dried out sway bar bushings. I wish I went to them first and they will now be my go-to shop for any of my automotive needs.

These guys were really nice I wanted to make sure my vehicle was ok to take up camping over the weekend and so I had them do a general inspection so I could have some peace of mind and know what I need to look out for. Long story short they reassured me that my vehicle was in no dire need and that it would be fine to take on the trip. Theyre inspections come with a simple but thorough checklist with included pictures of any trouble areas. Thanks to Al for keeping in touch and to the rest of you guys for doing a great job.

When anything goes wrong or we need regular maintenance, we always call Dennis George. We trust that were getting excellent service at a reasonable price. Theyve handled our fleet of family cars for decades and were grateful for quick times and advice that benefits our needs rather than their bottom line.

After breaking down on CA395 on a Sunday, we were towed to Dennis George for repairs - which were done quickly the following day. They were very sensitive to the fact that we were on a road trip and needed to resume travel as soon as possible. Everyone we interacted with was cautious (covid), courteous and very helpful. They turned our “bump in the road” into a tolerable side adventure 👍

When its 3pm on a Friday, youre in from out-of-town, and you need to head back home later in the weekend, you dont expect much luck when your 1999 Toyota Land Cruiser develops a whine in the engine.However, Jeff at Dennis George Automotive not only came out to diagnose the issue, he sourced the replacement, part and then came in on his day off to ensure that we were able to continue our travel plans without missing a beat.This is a type of excellence in customer service that you dream about and you are so lucky to have here.While your situation may not be as dire as ours, I believe that you will be just as satisfied with the service and professionalism.

I like having faurghn vehicles and I have avoided using Dennis George automotive for my 20 years if living in this valley, thinking because it was faurghn car service it would be over priceding. But, not only do they have a friendly office adispher for me the work is quality they explain in detail all they work done and needs to be done. I like the text messaging and so far after picking up my Benz I had extra cash to get a Big Mac...I dont give 5stars 4.5Three thumbs up for Dennis George FaurghnAutomotive Services..

We broke down in Death Valley and were towed to Ridgecrest. Tow company referred Dennis George because they had fixed other cars quickly. We called them 8 am and they got our truck in right away. Jeff diagnosed and we were done later that morning (it was what we suspected, but couldnt fix so far from home). Very professional and thorough.

Dennis and crew have been servicing my families headache🤕 vehicles for years. Always follows up with options to repair and reasonable as possible charges. My hippy daughter’s 1981 VW Vanagon was no exception. Thought it was the starter zapping the battery but turned out to be some bad wiring. Had the van for 2 weeks or so. Charged $170. Got her good as new. Thanks again “pit crew”🥰

Unfortunately, Ive been ripped off by local auto repair companies before. With Dennis George you get people you can trust. Theyre 1 of 2 auto repair shops I would reccomend to others. While their initial qoute may sound pricey compared to others, it is worth it. You get thorough, quality service from friendly professionals. I cant reccomend them enough.

My first experience with Dennis George Automotive was in 2011, after my do-it yourself brake job had gone horribly wrong. They did such a great job repairing my mess for an amazing price. I had heard horror stories of mechanics taking advantage of people and as a single mom, I needed someone trustworthy and honest. I found them! Every time I have needed anything from an oil change to complicated problems with my hybrid, they have done an incredible job. I highly recommend them!!
