Have lived in Nevada County since 1995 and just discovered Automotive City this year. The reason for delay is that we have owned a specific brand of cars for years and have always dealt with our local trusted mechanic for service needs. We just this year purchased a couple used cars for our kids and needed to find a high quality and reliable repair shop. On a recommendation from a friend we tried AC, and found just that! Spencer, the service manager, is the right person for any repair shop to have out front - knowledgeable, friendly, helpful - the positive list of adjectives goes on. I haven't had any personal experience with the back shop and the mechanics, but if it's run and staffed as professionally as the front, then Automotive City is a definite go-to destination for car repair. Great service in all respects, fast turnaround, with reasonable pricing and a AAA discount? Yes...highly recommend this shop.

My wife and I have taken our cars to Automotive for the past 12 years. They do a very good job, they have reasonable prices, and we have always found them to be fair and honest. They stand by their work and if something is not quite right, they will make it right at no charge. They also give you an honest assessment of what is needed without trying to get you to pay for something you do not need. As well as using them for all of our mechanical work, we also buy our tires through them. If they get out of balance, unlike most other places, they will balance them for free. For almost 30 years we bought our tires at another, well known, local establishment that specializes in tires. On one occasion, the tire places’ employee talked me into buying a set of tires that I had not wanted. (“All the Subaru drivers in our area love these tires.”) While I was responsible for going along with him, it left a bad taste in my mouth. On another occasion, when I went in first thing in the morning, I saw a daily questionnaire for their sales reps on the counter. The first item was “did you upsell today?” In other words, did you talk a client into buying more than they needed or wanted. The final factor in our switching was when Automotive City fixed a front end problem that the other dealer had been unable to fix. We like Automotive City and we trust them. We are happy to recommend them to others.
