Steve hooked me up. I was working on my car and got in a jam. I needed a bearing out of my hub on a holiday and he pressed it out no problem. Nobody was open except Blackmore. Steve even gave me some tools to finish my job and just asked that I bring them back the next day. He was a real lifesaver.

This man completely ruined my dreams of having a classic car restored. Steve Blackmore is a con artist who will lie to your face and tell you “Everything will be ok” I paid him and my car was never touched. Car ended up in the tow yard. Avoid this man like the plague. Not sure how he has such high reviews…

Steve Blackmore is a true master at his craft. He has amazing knowledge of anything with a motor, which makes me comfortable in his ability to work on my vehicle. The repairs were done quickly and below his initial estimate. I bring all my vehicles to Blackmore Auto & Truck. Thanks, Steve.

RUDE!!!! Hung up the phone without given a chance to respond. No etiquette whatsoever. Worked on my grandmother's car and returned it with more problems than when dropped off. DO NOT USE THIS MECHANIC VERY RUDE AND WILL MESS YOUR CAR UP!

I have been in the automotive repair business for decades, but due to health issues, I had to pick a mechanic to do the jobs I can’t do myself now. After trying out some other local shops, I have decided to have Steve and his team wrench on my cars. I’m picky, I know the business, and I know how shady shops can be. Blackmore is honest and reliable. I simply trust, and recommend him and Pete, whom I’ve known for years....

Great service, honest hard workers, owner explains what my car needs well so I feel reassured and informed. Even with automotive parts supply chain issues they do really well and they keep my car running with high quality parts. Recently got my entire AC updated from old style to new style and it’s amazing! They’ve been my mechanic for almost ten years and three vehicles :)

I had a tuneup done by the shop last minute they fit me right and they were very cordial and they were very attentive and very knowledgeable. Definitely use them again.

Oil change and brakes were a breeze! Steve and his crew were professional and friendly. They know their stuff and prices are fair. Thanks guys!

My camper suspension started making bad noises as I was headed to the coast. I figured I needed to get it looked at before getting to the winding roads over the hills and along the seaside. I tried calling around some places to see if I could get in on short notice. Even though it was a Saturday shortly before closing time, Steve said he'd take a look at it. He interrupted the job he was working on. Diagnosed the issue quickly. Tightened up the sway bar, and got me back on the road within 10 minutes. I really appreciate him helping me out in a pinch!

I brought my car to Steve Blackmore because the emergency brake light wouldn’t turn off. He told me that it just needed the brake fluid topped off, but also that I needed a water pump replace which cost $1000. After the work was done he used the words “your car is safe to drive” when I asked about my brakes. 3 days later my brakes failed and when I went back to him he denied ever looking at my brakes or that I had even brought my car to him with a question about my brakes. Steve Blackmore is a dishonest mechanic, and an unethical business owner.

I truly beleive that most of these reviews he has on-line are false. My son spent $255000.00 over three years on several diffrent vechicles. Some are for business and some are personal. He has just found out that he will have to spend $29000.00 on the Ford D50 van that Steve supposedly did repairs and work on. He paid steve $177000.00 for work on this vehicle. This is a quote from West Coast diesel a reputable establish shop in Santa Rosa. I personally was in this vehicle when the brakes failed. The calliper fell of of the back tire that Steve has installed. This is just one of the many disasters with this shop. It is one thing to do bad repairs, but bad repairs that put people in danger is another thing.

"Highly recommend this place for top-notch work! The team is experienced, skilled, and genuinely knows their stuff. Yes, prices are a bit higher than elsewhere, but you get what you pay for - quality, effectiveness, and honesty. With years of experience and a reputation to uphold, they deliver exceptional results. What impresses me most is their integrity - no fluff, no scams, just straightforward, respectful service. I felt valued and respected throughout my experience. If you're looking for reliable, high-quality work, look no further!"

I love this shop, they can always squeeze me in for a service and they always find the root cause and fix it right instead of throwing the first part at it, when something got confusing with my car Steve methodically chose the best plan of attack for the vehicle while keeping my future repair costs down too by assessing everything related and cutting down on labor by putting more parts in that were nearly busted and worn out so that I didn’t experience another failure and down the road. He even found a really difficult to match tire for my vehicle when I was in no position to get all 4, it was a huge help.

I’ll tell you what I wouldn’t be moving if it weren’t for these guys they go above and beyond Steve knows what he’s talking about and his assistant Pete is just as knowledgeable. I was stuck nowhere near the shop and they took their time and came after their long day and assisted me and got me moving again. I’ve been more than grateful more than once for this company and those guys they do excellent work they talk a little smack to each other but you know it’s an auto body shop. . I’ve been more than grateful more than once for this company and those guys they do excellent work they talk little smack to each other but you know it’s a auto body shop what you expect I would recommend them and I definitely use them over and over again.

Here's my ongoing experience with Blackmore automotive and my E350 van that took him 3 years to rebuild and a $177000. We are on month 2 of having West Coast diesel straighting out the nighmare Steve Blackmore created to a running van when he got it. $5000 on the transmission that he claimed he fixed. pretty sure he didn't. The repairs on this vehicle's from what Steve handed me are now up to $34000. Steve knew that I'd be using this van out in Snowy remote areas where there would be no cell. He was willing to send my friends and family out in the middle of nowhere for the love money. This man is not trustworthy do not bring your vehicle here
