I was pleasantly surprised at how efficient this shop was. 30 minutes after I dropped my car off Simon called me to tell me what the problems were & how much everything was going to cost. They replaced my thermostat housing & spark plugs & also repaired an oil leak, all for a price way below what I expected! I will definitely be returning for any future repairs & referring friends/family to this shop.

Simon took very good care of me. I heard about them through word of mouth. He did quality fast work for a reasonable price. That's hard to find these days. There were a few parts that I thought I needed but apparently didn't and they told me instead of just putting them on and charging me. Very pleased with their service.

I got 1000 into the area and was looking for a place to get some work done. They were very good at communicating the issues as well as the estimated cost. There was a quick turnaround, and my car is running fantastic. I’m grateful for the honesty and the value that I found here and look forward to bringing my car back hopefully not too often! ;)

Simon and his staff are the real deal. This automotive shop is honest. Simon is an expert diagnostician. He has a staff of excellent mechanics. They don't con you by showing you a filter or whatever and telling you that you need hundreds of dollars of unnecessary work. But most importantly, they find out what is wrong, and they fix it. Simon might inform you that since they are doing something, they could also perform some preventive maintenance that might be due soon since your care is there. But it is information. Not a hard sell. The guy eats and sleeps cars. He not only attends auto races but races himself. The shop used to be a transmission shop owned by a guy named Mike, but Simon bought it several years ago and Simon's shop does general automotive maintenance and repair with all the modern diagnostic equipment. One time my car needed a tow and A-Dayton arranged it through another tow business. Couldn't beat the price and service. The last time I was there, they took meticulous care with COVID-19 precautions. Masks, gloves, social distancing, and cleaning door handles and any part of the interior they might touch. Made me feel safe. I am a physician, and I was impressed with the health precautions. They pay attention to detail.

Needed to get my headlight bulbs replaced. I would have done it myself but didn't have the tools to remove my entire front bumper to get to them. So I took it to Simon and the crew at A-Dayton Automotive. Quoted me an hour and a half. Had it done in an hour. Fast and friendly. Will definitely be coming back to see them for my car needs.

They fixed the transmission in my Durango about 2 years ago, and it's still running great. Now I need my Nissan fixed so I will be taking it there. Simon is very nice, friendly & knowledgeable.

We have been going to A-Dayton for many years, it was really just a transmission repair shop owned by Mike. When Mike brought Simon in, he found the best! Simon and his crew are top-notch mechanics! They are able to do full car repairs and foreign cars as well. So glad we found these talented young men to take care of our auto needs. And the best part, they are HONEST & REASONABLE!

Have had my older beater Pontiac g6 in here 3 times now. This last time was for a starter, then previously sway bar end links and a radiator. Simon is great. Very enthusiastic and the prices have always felt fair. The turnaround has also been quick, and they've usually gotten me out in a day or two. When I had them check the sway bar end links while getting new tires I mentioned that during a patch job a bigger chain tire shop had said I had excessive wear on my tie rod ends as well. Simon and his crew were my 2nd opinion and confirmed my suspicion of just needing the sway bar end links. 3 years later my tie rods are still fine. Was originally referred here by my stepdad and they did a great job fixing a nightmare electrical issue on his Cadillac that was just out of warranty.
