I stopped in this morning on my way to work because I noticed something on the bottom of my car was loose. My boss has taken his cars to GW for 20+ years, so I thought I would try them out. George helped me. He diagnosed the issue and fixed it right away. I was in and out in under ten minutes and he didn't charge me because the clip needed was apparently very cheap. Although he could have delayed and made a quick profit, he was honest, prompt and helpful without hesitation. I am happy to recommend GW to anyone in need of vehicle service!

My car wouldn't start so I had it towed into G W Automotive. They called to let me know the starter had to be replaced and gave me a price which we agreed on. A few hours later they called and told me that car would be ready for pick up in about an hour. I had my son pick up the vehicle and the cost of replacing the starter was considerably less than our price we agreed on. That's the first time that has ever happened to me. I highly recommend G W Automotive.

I have been a loyal customer for over 3 years and still happy. So loyal that I drive 45 minutes each way each time I have a car issue. No one else will touch my car. I feel safe with the job they do for me. Safety checked :) First time I went there is to get a quote for a job that my Jeep needed done. His prices were 1/3 cheaper than in other places so I decided to give it a try. You know, it was cheaper. PRICE Checked :) I was so happy that after the job was done, George the owner said you know I didn’t have to do X thing so is cheaper. HONESTY checked. :) Then I was worried for my car and I stopped by and he said oh you just need oil so here you go, fix it in the spot so I can go on my trip. Today I stopped by because Tires Plus did not do a good job installing my tires. He took care of it. For free. And fast ! Just to be nice. And to keep myself and my son safe. CARING check! And today i learnt that they sell tires too! I did not know that so for sure they will be my only choice for tires from now on!

This garage is fantastic. I have now had 3 cars there that have needed major work over the last 3 years and GW came through each time with top notch repairs and excellent communication and customer service. If you want it done right, take it here….

George has more than earned my loyalty as a customer over the years. He has never over-charged me for any work he has done. He always contacts me with up-dates if scope of work changes. I won't take my vehicles anywhere else. Honest, dependable, knowledgeable, and very customer orientated.

Going to the GW Garage for close to 15 years, unfortunately we have to move on. Their expertise is excellent, a service that can be trusted and is very competent, a real pleasure in doing business with GW we need more businesses like GW, they're hard to find these days. Thank you for the reliable professional service. JP Paul Laramee Montreal ( Laval ) , Canada.

George was super thorough with our sons Jeep. He explained all of the issues very well. He listed the pertinent things from greatest to least & quoted accordingly. He called us with information not even an hour after drop off. We expected to pay for his time, skill & thoroughness. Nope, didn’t charge a dime! GW Automotive was highly recommended on the Nextdoor Neighbor app. & we got to experience their 5 star service today first hand.

I can't say enough about this family-owned business. They are friendly, honest, and fair. I appreciated the extra time they took to explain what was wrong and they fixed my car in a timely fashion. As someone who is only in Florida part of the year, I was so happy to find a reliable auto repair shop. Highly recommended to anyone!

Honest, dependable, friendly.... GW Automotive is the best! We have been taking cars there for over 20 years now and have been more than happy with all our dealings with George Sr. and George Jr. These are the 'go to' guys for all your car's needs. Fair prices, no crazy rip-offs, just plain old honest & quality workmanship.... and always with a smile.

George, at GW Automotive Inc went the extra mile for me on an issue that four other repair shops could not identify on my 2004 Subaru Forester. This was my first visit to GW Automotive Inc and I was so impressed by their willingness to help me out I had to write this and share it with others. You won't go wrong trusting the folks at GW Automotive. Thanks again, George for all you help.

The team they have here is amazing! Not only is George super kind but he was able to fix up my car within very short notice. Definitely a great mechanic to bring your car to. The damage was pricey but he was able to salvage some parts and make my total cheaper then what he estimated. I’m very grateful!! Thank youuuu guys!!!

Does fast quality work with no upselling. The rating of this business speaks for itself. George has always been great at communicating the issue and giving an accurate price on repair without getting blindsided with a much higher price after doing the work. We drive 30 minutes to have them work on our cars due to the trust and confidence we have with them.

George is a wonderful human! He treats every single car that comes in there as if it were his own kids car. In a world where it is hard to find reliable and honest mechanics, George and his crew stand miles above everyone else. I have been taking my SUV to him for years and he always fixes things right the first time and with quality parts. Everyone I know I recommend his shop to. Thank you George for being so amazing to all of your customers!!!

GW is the first honest mechanic I’ve found in Clearwater, and possibly all of Pinellas. He doesn’t try to take advantage of you and will always give you straight, honest advice. He’s upfront about how dealerships can mislead you, and he’ll make sure you understand what’s really going on with your vehicle. GW is hardworking, trustworthy, and absolutely worth both your time and money. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else.

My check engine light came on and they were so helpful! I was coming from out of town and my dad talked with them on the phone. They did not push anything on me. I felt very secure there. I would highly recommend this place!

After spending time and money at several auto repair shops, I finally found GW AUTOMOTIVE. Mr. George treated me very kindly. Finding honest mechanics these days is like looking for a needle in a haystack. I recommend them. Excellent work at a reasonable price.👍👍👍

I cannot say enough good things about George and the team at GW Automotive! Being out of state, I was nervous about getting things handled from a distance, but George went above and beyond to take care of me every step of the way. He was communicative, patient, and truly looked out for my best interests — something that is rare to find these days. Not only did he make the process smooth and stress-free, but he also made me feel confident and supported even while I wasn’t physically there. It’s clear he genuinely cares about his customers and takes pride in doing things the right way. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, knowledgeable, and will treat you like family, George at GW Automotive is the one. I’m so grateful for all of his help and highly recommend this shop to anyone in Florida (or even out of state!) who needs reliable service.
