I took my 2016 Nissan Rogue to GTO when I had an issue with my check engine light, AC, and sensor. Gaston was very reliable and a skilled mechanic. His price is reasonable, too. I highly recommend him!!!

Gaston was helpful, honest, thorough, fairly priced, and an absolute life saver. I will be going back and could not recommend any auto mechanic more highly. I work as a flower delivery driver and my car broke down the day before Valentine s Day. I called Gaston at about 2pm on the 13th, we met shortly after and he got my car working again by 6pm (which included him having to go and pick-up a replacement part!). In addition, to being so immediately helpful, he was thorough, explained and showed everything to me, and gave a me a suite of options to proceed with based on my financial capacity. I was especially appreciative that he took the time to explain the problem to me and inform me of all of my options including not replacing my car s compressor. Gaston, thank you for the honesty, incredibly timely service, and fantastic job. My car is running smoothly again and my AC is also cold again! And I was able to deliver on V-day!

Excellent auto mechanic service. Gast�n (his owner) has given me his great experience in an accurate diagnosis in relation to the problem of my car, which turned out to be perfect. I will surely return and recommend it to my friends, this workshop gives me a lot of confidence and security.

My car is a 2004 and it does need a lot of work that agree with and I can not afford right now but I do NOT agree that it costs 300 to 400 for a battery not including labor as I just purchased a battery for 120 and installed it myself in less than 10 mins. I would recommend to double check prices after taking your car to GTO for an estimate.

Gaston is a very friendly mechanic and took care of my Challenger. His work was quick and reasonably priced. I would trust him to repair my car again.

Gato is the best. He never over charges. I love taking my car somewhere where I know who will be working on it, and I know knows what they're doing and never gouges. He has every tool and if he doesn't have what you need he will go and get it and not charge you extra. Simply the best!

Best mechanic! Very straightforward, honest, reliable, easy to communicate with, will definitely go back when need to. I had my ignition switch replaced and my thermostat replaced. I went to him on a Thursday for a diagnosis and by Monday my car was repaired. Very quick service and the pricing is very affordable and he only uses high quality parts so you know it will last. Thank You Gaston!

Excellent mechanic. It's hard finding an honest and reasonably priced mechanic here, despite there being so many. Don't let other places rip you off. If it doesn't need fixing or replacing he will let you know, unlike other places who are more than happy to quote you half the price of the whole car before even looking at it. He's very responsive. I had asked for a quote via Google and he replied in less than 30min. Painless process and very easy, which is very important for someone who may not know a lot about carsServices: Transmission, Tires, Steering & suspension repair

This place is a game change for me. I never refer mechanics because there is always something but I guess never say never.I used to drive all the way to Pines to get a good mechanic but not as reliable and had to wait long lines to get my car serviced but with GTO, he is affordable and provides quotes up front so no huge surprises.I started with my older car the price and work was great so I them took my newer vehicle, this is my place to go now and is only 10 minutes away. Thank you for the great service.

Thank you Gaston for helping me with my window. The front driver side window got stuck one day while I was at work. The next day I found Gaston and we were able to set up a meeting immediately. He helped me first with making sure my window went up and stayed up because you know one minute it can be sunny and the next it's pouring. I ordered the part and once the part arrived (like 2 days since I dont have Amazon prime lol) I went back to him and he fixed it within an hour. Not only was he super helpful and and very professional the whole time. He was also super knowledgeable and courteous of my time. I will definitely go back to Gaston for any issues with my 2001 ML 320 Mercedes-Benz .Service: Electrical

Gaston is a wonderful man who feels like a personal friend who cares about my satisfaction. I would trust him over any other mechanic to do what is right and needed without any hidden agenda. I would recommend his services to my best friends and family. You won't be disappointed in your expectations of him.

Gaston was phenominal!!! He took my truck and made her run like new again! His service and professionalism is unparalleled in the world of mechanics. I will most definately be calling him for any future maintenance issues with my truck. He is very reasonably priced, competitively with other shops, at the same time will work with and around your schedule. He was truly a life saver in this particular instance. Thanks again Gaston!!!!!

I initially gave GTO a 5-Star rating but now I'm slow regretting I ever let this man touch my 2002 BMW 325 xi. So I first found out about GTO via Google while looking for an affordable at home or mobile mechanic because my BMW has been sitting for almost a year and was having issues starting up and staying on. I had a good initial feeling about giving my car over to GTO because of his immaculate 5 star rating but I guess it's true when they say never judge a book by its' cover. I ended up paying GTO $1000 to replace my E-Brake($320), perform an oil change using "top of the line" full synthetic oil($110), air flow sensor replacement($390), and the replacement of all my old spark plugs.When I initially gave my car to GTO, it took him one full week to diagnose and repair all the issues he found and I waited very patiently because I was eventually informed by GTO that he only fixes cars part time because he has a full time job during the day. After waiting about a week, I finally get a call from GTO to come pick up my car and every thing seemed fine when I went for a test drive with Mr Ganther in the passenger. However, shortly after receiving my car back from GTO my check engine light turns back on and I start experiencing the same problems I initially had. After noticing this, I call GTO and inform him about the current situation and he tells me to bring the car back in so he could run another computer diagnostic test on the engine. So shortly after he tells me this, I return the car and he keeps it for another full week just to diagnose the problem.After waiting another full week for an official diagnosis, Mr Ganther finally informs me that the source of my problem is stemming from something called an "oil separator" in the engine and it would cost me another $550 to repair. When Mr Ganther told me this, I politely told him I wouldn't be able to perform the repair at that current moment because of financial reasons and that I would return the car when I was ready. After hearing this, Mr Ganther tried charging me another $75 for the follow up diagnostic he ran on my engine (keep in mind I just paid this guy $1000 cash and he's had my car for almost 3 weeks). I found this request to be disrespectful considering I just paid this guy $1000 to fix a problem I now believe he's incompetent to fix. Luckily i was able to get my car back from GTO without having to pay another diagnostic fee but now I'm back to being stuck with the same problem I initially had.My car is currently being worked on by a REAL AUTHENTIC professional mechanic and they informed me that my engine oil levels were extremely low and if I would've continued driving my car the way it was, the engine could've failed. This is very surprising considering that I paid Mr Ganther for an oil change using "top of the line" full synthetic motor oil recommended by BMW for which I was charged $110. This whole experience has been a mess and I regret giving this man $1000 for a problem that never got fixed but like they say, "what goes around, comes around."Services: General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Engine repair, Oil change

I am so glad I went with Gato at GTO. He replaced the clutch on my saab 9-3 in a shorter amount of time than he estimated and kept the cost within reason. The real reason for the 5 stars though is how responsive and comprehensive his approach was. For example, he replaced my wiper blades for free and when I got the car back the electrical system was also fixed to factory condition. I would recommend him highly for any complex or foreign car or just if you want it done correctly the first time. Wise man say honest mechanic rare like needle in haystack.

I took 3 cars here for an honest answer on what to buy. The owner, Gatson was very professional, very knowledgeable and honest and we picked a good car to suit my needs. He will be my mechanic from now on. Thank you Gatson
