Light, Camera, Tire Monitor
While I had a comfortable wait... the issues were diagnosed and efficiently addressed... as usual.
I enjoyed seeing Dakota and Ashley to catch up on family etc.
Plus I was invited to a customer appreciation event.
A good day!

Reset Check engine light
Daughter visiting from DC. Stopped into shop to have check engine light reset. They found an error code with the engine. Have to take vehicle back to where previous work was done as it’s still under warranty. Great place and we will definitely start using them.

First Time There
Like many others out there, I have been through a few different mechanic shops over the years. Most of them were visited one time, and for one reason or another I chose not to return. I heard about and went to Dakota's for the first time recently and was very pleased. Between the quick/friendly service, reasonable prices and the willingness to work with me concerning my vehicle situation, I will definetly be returning to Dakota's for all future repairs and will recommend them to others ! Thank you for doing a great job !

Great shop.
AC was acting up, Dakota's found the issue quick and fixed it at a great price.
Dakotas A., Owner from Dakota's Auto Repair responded on 08/06/2025 05:25 AM

It's always a breath of fresh air when the AC starts cooperating again, isn’t it? We’re glad to hear we could quickly pinpoint the problem and get it fixed without breaking the bank. If your AC ever decides to throw another tantrum, you know who to call!

Problem...Easily and Pleasantly Solved
I had a major, undrivable situation; and had my 2006 C Class Mercedes-Benz towed to DAKOTA'S..
Dakota fixed my problem, preformed an oil change and filter..and My bill was under $200.00!
Plus everyone in the business is pleasant and courteous!
Dakotas A., Owner from Dakota's Auto Repair responded on 07/21/2025 10:27 AM

We’re glad to hear that we could get your 2006 C Class back on its feet and that your experience with us was smooth as your car's new oil! Who knew fixing a major, undrivable situation could come with such a pleasant price tag? Our team strives to keep things courteous—even if the vehicles don't always play nice. If that Mercedes is ever in need of another check-up, we'll be here, ready to pamper it again!
