I went to GF automotive to get my alternator checked. The check was free. But after getting it checked the mechanic told me it was giving out to many volts and I can burn up all my computers. They recommended I don’t drive it. I spoke to Michele and she figured out what alternator I needed and ordered it right away. I got there at 330 and my truck was fixed before 6. I stayed and chatted the whole time with Michele and her son Matt (verry nice and Handsome man single ladies). Everyone there was verry nice. Definitely going back and 100% would recommend

Easily the best place in town to take your vehicle. The staff is very friendly and make sure the work they agree to do on your car is done correctly and to the standard. They don’t push extra work on you that you don’t need. I was trying to get extra stuff done that would have cost me more money and it was much appreciated that the mechanic told me I did not need it done yet. Any other place would have easily added it to the bill.

I love their personalized service. It takes a while for it to get done. In my case I dropped it off at 10 in the morning and got my car back at 6 at night. They have an email service where they send you your car history as well as letting you know when it's time to get a tune up. A plus plus plus plus

I started taking my first car, that I bought Dec. 7th, 1978, to G-F Automotive in 1981. I've always have had a good experience with the staff at G-F. And I still continue to take my car to them. Even when I lived for a year in Sacramento. There staff has always told me the truth and have always tell me what I need to hear, even if I don't like it. Their passion has always been cars, and delivering the best service they can possibly deliver. I will continue to bring every car that I will ever own to them. Because of the Service they've provided me, my Dad brought his cars to them, One of my Mom & Dad's best friends also brought their cars to them, and I have no-idea how many more have sought the service of the team at G-F just simply from the word of mouth of myself and my family. Great Service Guys, Keep up the Great Work !!!.

This is the only Auto Shop I would recommend and I continue to depend on after years of them doing an awesome job on my own and family vehicles I bring here. When you bring your vehicle here you know you have left it in good hands. When you first walk into the shop you will 90% of the time see Michelle Marsh (shop owner) at the front desk and if not her you will see 1 out of 3 of her great and friendly kids. Michelle is the kindest, most honest, friendliest and lovable shop owner/runner you will ever meet. She is nothing like majority of shop owners who recommend you need nonsense work done and rack up your bill. Michelle treats everyone whom walks into her shop like family and delivers nothing but quality customer service and work. Do not expect the mechanics to have customer service skills but you can expect them to treat your car like it's their own. All mechanics are ASE (Automotive Service Excellence) certified including certifications from Hybrid vehicles to your standard domestic or international vehicles. G-F Automotive has been at the exact location for over 20 years owned and operated by the Marsh family. I hope this review helps your decision on choosing this Auto Shop. You will not regret it. Be sure to talk to Michelle Marsh about any questions or concerns.

Service was great. They were very friendly and responsive. We had no idea what was wrong with our truck and they were able to determine the problem. They were also accommodating and let us pick up our truck after hours. Highly recommend them!

I came here to get my last maintenance service on my car before returning it at lease end. Like most people, I barely used the car this year so I didn't feel like it was really worth it to take the car to the dealer for the last maintenance service and get charged more than double what they charged me at G-F. They do a good job and care about the quality of their work. I have come to them with my other car too, for oil changes and to save it when the transmission was slipping. That was 2 years ago and it is still running fine today! Very reasonable prices for quality work.

I was here on 11/26 to have an oil change done on my car. Nothing but good info about this place. Just to name a few qualities: Professional, Honest, Upfront, transparent. This shop truly is an honest place to go to, for all your automotive concerns/needs/repairs if you need to have your car worked on. No lies. Michele is extremely kind and helpful. Talking to her is like talking to family - she's very personable and welcoming - you walk away feeling like you're family. And wow! No clue how Madea got the idea (based off appearance alone) that Matt is intimidating! Holy cow! That is the 180 opposite of my interaction with him. Matt is super knowledgeable, helpful, kind and also accommodating. All the techs there are high quality and know how to do their jobs - and well. 10/10 stars would recommend this shop and definitely coming back to have my car serviced. I can see why their reviews are so good!

Have been to G-F Automotive a couple of times and have been very pleased with the service. Got me taken care of in short order and at a fair price. Will be coming back for all my future service needs. Also like the follow up by Michelle to make sure there were no issues.

I really appreciate the staff here! I have had them work on my 91 Van a couple of times. They are friendly and always doing more than I expected and answer all of my questions. I own a older vehicle that is sentimental, GF has helped me with restoration and also fixed a door that had been broken for years. I’m very grateful they exist because it was difficult to find a mechanic willing to work on older vehicles. This place is pretty much a 1 stop shop and if they don’t do it they will help you find someone that does and is reliable. I think they have fair prices compared to other places I’ve been in the area.

I can't thank Michelle and her team enough for helping get my Element SC back on the road. They replaced my bearings, steering knuckle, ball joints, and did a alignment for me.

Michelle and her crew are amazing! I've been coming to them for a few years now with my cars. (Not bragging, but I don't drive cheap cars). The quality of work and customer service are nothing short of outstanding! They are honest (not an easy thing to find these days). Many times I asked whether I need this or that and was told no. Many other mechanics would say yes just to make an extra buck. The prices for parts and labor are absolutely the best (believe me, I shop around). Recently changed my tires and got an alignment. They saved me roughly $400-500 comparing to all the other estimates I got. Honestly don't think I'll ever take my car anywhere else. Take your car to G-F with full confidence. You won't regret it!

needed a starter, had my car towed directly to the station and within an hour received info on my car and a quote. The quote was reasonably priced and went to pay the next day and it even came in under the quote for $60.00 when does that ever happen. Very happy that my car was completed in a day even around the holidays Thanks Michele and her team Michelle and her team just helped me out again I needed brakes for my Honda and coordinated the repair within the same day and communicated with me early and often. I appreciate your business being so convenient for me and my family

I rarely write reviews, but I need to do it this time to share my amazing experience with Michelle and her team. She and the team truly care for your car as if it were their own, unlike any other franchise that has tried to rip me off a few times. They are honest, genuine, and suggest the best price right from the start. It will have much more trust in this industry if any other places were also like this. I highly recommend their service to anyone in need of reliable and trustworthy car maintenance.
