One of the best automotive repair shops in Utica! Dave is an outstanding mechanic and one of the most caring people you will know. He looks out for you and will not stray you wrong. My mother turned me on to Dave and I have been a customer for over 15 years and three cars later. How now time flies. If you look for a good and honest mechanic Automotive Repair Shop is the place to go!

Was moving across country and a metal bar flew off a car ahead of me and put a hole in my gas tank. Dealership I got towed to told me they could replace the tank but it was on backorder. Called around to a bunch of places for ideas and this was the only one that did not tell me to kick rocks. Guy I spoke with treated me like a family member and as if my problem was his own. He gave me the idea to look for the part online and see if the dealership could replace it without waiting for it. This place got me back on the road, would 100% go through them if I was not just passing through.

I wouldn't even consider another mechanic!! Dave and Justin are without a doubt the best, most detailed oriented, and honest mechanics in the area. If you are the type of person that truly wants your vehicle to be safe and reliable, and you understand the value in preventative maintenance, Computer Aided Automotive should be the place you take your cars. I have always been extremely satisfied with their work, trust their knowledge and suggestions, and have referred them to countless friends and family.

Finding an honest, skilled, and trusted mechanic is a real challenge these days. that's why I'm grateful to have found Dave and his team at Computer Aided Automotive. I've been taking my vehicles to CAA for over a decade and have always been kept moving down the road with quick turnarounds and quality work. You wont find nonsense here. Just fair, honest, and transparent service centered around professional and knowledgeable workmanship. I trust no one else to work on my cars.

I have been a client of David and his team for many years. He and Justin have worked on my vehicles since he opened his business on Culver Ave. I have never had to bring a car back because of an error on his side. His work is excellent and his prices are very reasonable. He even maintains my 1979 antique vehicle and now my 2023 foreign made sports sedan twin turbo fully loaded all wheel drive vehicle. He is the best. Thanks Dave. You are the best in my book. Dr. Gerard Capraro.

Most people are searching for a shop they can truly trust—and I can’t say it loud enough: CAA is the place to go! No matter how big or small the issue, I know they’ll get me in and get it fixed. They work with me and my budget, and they actually take the time to teach me along the way. I never feel intimidated, overlooked, or taken advantage of. My car is lucky to have them!

I had my car serviced twice in the last few weeks and the service was great. Dave was friendly and very knowledgeable, taking the time to explain what my car needed. My 2014 Honda CRV drives like a new car! I was also leaving for vacation and got a nail in my tire. I brought my car to Dave at 2pm and he put on two new tires by 4pm. I highly recommend Computer Aided Automotive. Thanks Art and Jen

I highly recommend this auto shop. Dave is so honest his work is excellent and it is very reasonably priced. He backs his work and is always willing to help his customers. I originally brought my car in because another place had said My new car needed $2000 worth of work. I could not understand how that was true. A friend recommended I take my car to Dave and I did not need all of that work done. He was honest and really supportive. He has gotten me excellent deals on tires, Works with me on the oil changes and is always willing to answer all my questions. This is the only automotive shop I will go to.

I have been a very happy customer of Computer Aided Automotive for more than a decade. We had been to easily a dozen other mechanics and garages with decent reputations or local pride and have had issues - and no other garage out there is more thorough, honest, and fair. They always take the time to explain or show you what work is needed and why, outline the cost appropriately, and I have never once needed to return or correct a job. I have a handful of vehicles myself that go there, and my whole immediate family, friends, neighbors, coworkers and anyone else that needs work is recommended there. I’ve personally directed 20+ cars through Computer Aided Automotive, and there’s no other garage I trust to even touch a specific family car. I rarely write reviews - and I highly, highly recommend anyone takes their vehicle here.

I am the new automotive teacher at Proctor high school I am still getting set up with supplies. I was in a pinch helping out a student who needed his tire fixed with a new valve stem. They were able to help quickly so I could get back to the school and help get him on his way.

Dave and his team are incredibly thorough. I came in with an undiagnosed rattle not only fixed that issue but several others that were holding back my car’s performance. He walked me through all my options and now my Honda is running better than ever. He’s extremely honest, fair, and knowledgeable. If you’re looking for a trust worthy shop you’ve found the place.

Thanks to the recommendations of several folks I trust, I just switched to Computer Aided Automotive for my car and thus far, I have had really positive experiences (I have been there twice now). They always explain everything that needs to be done, do really good work, and have very reasonable prices. Oh yes, and everyone there is incredibly pleasant and personable. I am excited for this to be my forever shop!

David and his staff are incredibly friendly, professional, and upfront about everything. They take the time to explain what is going on with my car in a way that is easy to understand—no pressure, no upselling, just honest advice. They diagnosis quick, repair on schedule, and the pricing is completely fair! It’s rare to find a shop you can fully trust, but this place truly delivers quality workmanship and great customer service. I’ll definitely be coming back for all future maintenance and recommending them to friends and family.
