 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had taken my vehicle to a dealer because the engine was running rough.  The dealer concluded I needed a new engine for $21,000.  I drove the car after that for a while - engine running rough.  Then I took the car to Dale Feste Automotive.  I told them the car was running rough.  They came back with a list of things to do to the car, in general maintenance that needed to be done.  I gave them the go-ahead to do those things that outlined to me.  I picked up the car when they were finished - and it runs like it should - smooth, responsive, amazing.  I have nothing but praise for Alex - the mechanic who worked on my car, Aaron, the service guy who was my point of contact, and Dale Feste Automotive in general.  This was my first time to have work done there, but it certainly will not be my last and I will be a walking and talking promoter of Dale Feste Automotive.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My granddaughter was having all kinds of issues with her car so I took it to Dale Feste where I take my car. They went over the car with a fine tooth comb and found all the things that were causing her problems. After discussing all the issues with Tony I gave him the go ahead. She has had her car back for a week and all her problems with the car have disappeared.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been using Dale Feste Automotive as my family's go-to repair shop since we moved to the area a few years ago. We tried a few other shops along the way, but nothing has compared to the level of customer service we've received from Dale's. They're always quick to complete the work, communicate clearly throughout the process, and call for approval before moving forward with any repairs. I highly recommend Dale Feste Automotive to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy repair shop!

Just plain old good honest service to be found here. No tricks. Took my car to three local repair shops and of the three, Dale Feste was the only one to solve a persistent problem I had been having. AAA shop with AAA service.
