Since 1976 they've been my mechanics. HONEST, attentive, smart. I moved away but I'd bring my car back for servicing while I visit with old friends. They kept my Toyota running for 24 years. After I bought a new one, I gave the old one to my granddaughter who lives 55 miles away and she still brings it to them and visits with us while they service it. THAT'S the circle of Life!!!

My grandfather took my car to Bates Auto because the engine light turned on. They "fixed" it but shortly after getting it back the light turned back on. So, we called them and they told us to come by the next morning. They told us to leave my car for a few hours so they can look at it. We never heard back from them later that day even after calling them several times. My car ended up staying there over night. The next day, they called my grandfather to come pick up the car. I went with him and the man told us that they had to change the spark plugs because they were completely ruined. My car felt

The owner is honest and he and his staff are knowledgeable. I have had my vehicles serviced by them 3 times and each time the problem was rectified and I feel charged fairly.

It's hard to find honest mechanics in this day and age. Bates Automotive is truly the last of the good guys. Always truthful and fair prices.

I been going here for years, when it was George working on your car, now the new owners Henry gives the same service. My husband Nick and Henry became good friends and only trusted this shop with our car after being scammed by another shop in Ontario.

My roommate and I were trying to locate a reputable repair shop to diagnose a rattling noise coming from the front end of his 2015 VW Jetta TDI.
After reading the numerous positive reviews about Henry and how he is very honest and charges a very fair and reasonable price, we just had to give him and Bates a try.
I must say on behalf of my roommate and I, that all of the positive reviews about Henry and Bates Automotive were right on the money. My roommates Jetta has a warranty with a $250 deductable. So rather than taking the Jetta for the rattle, we were hoping Henry could save us a few bucks

The place is tucked away in an industrial complex, but the money I saved made it worth the venture. Henry really took care of me, and the technicians were super knowledgeable about my honda, and they even made sure not to leave and oil smudges on my hood when they were done. Great service! They will get my business again for sure!
