Customer Reviews & Stories

My experience with Advanced Automotive was excellent. It was a very stressful day for me. Unfortunately my car is toast. But instead of rushing me out the door after telling me there was nothing that could be done. David helped me figure out my next steps. While I was on the phone again with AAA he made the phone call to get Enterprise to pick me up from his office. And was very helpful the next day when AAA had still not picked up my car.David really helped me get through a very stressful day. I would recommend this shop to anyone!

Advanced Automotive stepped up with first class customer service!An expensive part they had replaced failed after a few weeks. The supplier warranted the part, but AA covered the labor. We all know labor can be the biggest cost in a repair job. They also spent extra time running diagnostics to assure there wasn’t an underlying problem that could have caused the failure. Thank you Andvanced Automotive.

About 20 years ago (and many cars ago) I found Adv Auto through several referrals from Jeffco Fire & Sheriff's. And car maintenance and service worries became a thing of the past. Greg is fantastic in every aspect of the business. He cares about the quality of work and customer service they all provide. We've had Volvo's, Ford, Dodge, and Nissan - he serviced them all. And the added bonus of the cleanest car facility I've ever seen. Greg always shows me what is wrong so I can understand exactly what happened. Here you can see the destroyed bearings and bent frame (can't see the bend in pic) from when a belt snapped and beat the crap out of my car.

Let's admit it car repairs hurt and most of what is out there today it's all corporate take you in for the money and send you out. Greg and his team are a group of hard working guys. I was treated with respect which when it comes to mechanical work women usually get the short end of the stick I hate to admit it but it's true. Greg kept me up to date on what was going on with my car and was accurate with his timing for when I could except everything to be done. The waiting area is set up with women and children in mind his magazine selection is actually worth looking through and has books, games, and, toy cars that kids can touch and play with. We all know maintaining a car takes time and sometimes it isn't cheap but there's honesty and care when it come to this shop. I will defiantly be back.

I think Greg may have saved my life. Other mechanics failed to catch a problem that could have frozen up my wheels going 70 miles per hour. I'm making him my only mechanic. Great with Subarus.

Really happy that I found this shop, it's always nice to know you have a mechanic you can trust. Gregg is extremely knowledgeable and does excellent work. They only use original manufacturer parts so repairs can seem costly but since it is ALWAYS done right it is well worth it.

Look, I’m knowledgeable on most things cars, but these guys take it to another level. They hooked me up with an assessment and diagnosed every issue, I could have easily taken this information and had my problems fixed elsewhere. However, these guys are reliable, trustworthy and are willing to work with you, so it is a no brainer to have my work done at Advanced Automotive. They hand wrote me a Christmas card with a referral bonus of 20% off, and have sent Christmas gift cards for $10 off any regular priced service - it’s those small details that count the most. Their customer service is on another level, Trey talks to you like a genuine person and will help prioritize your issues in order of importance. I’ve been extremely satisfied with the service I have received, and will definitely be recommending this shop for those in need.

Originally brought my car in for a front brakes replacement. After they took a look at my car the drive shaft needed to be rebuilt and luckily they caught it right before the thing was ready to tear off. Now my car runs like new and I can continue driving through the mountains for snowboarding with no worries. These guys do a great job!

They need ten stars plus some more. Greg is the happiest and most helpful person I've ever come across in a shop EVER. Says a lot since I've been to too many in last few years. Greg and Ed didn't talk to me like I was dumb nor did they try to sell me blinker fluid at all. AMAZING. They were straight forward about the issue and black and white about it being worth it or not on my ride. Saved me lots of money opposed to taking it all. Who does that. THEY DID they are a diamond in the rough. They have the cutest little waiting area (not best description for a shop sorry guys) it's like stepping back in time to a little dinner. THE CLEANLINESS OF THE PLACE IS MIND BLOWING FOR SURE. YOU HAVE TO SEE IT TO BELIEVE IT. Anyone and everyone should be here to experience real customer service and honest mechanics. My mind is blown. They forever have a customer in me. 👏 KUDOS 👏 MECHANICAL ROCKSTARS

Thank you to Greg and Advanced Automotive in Golden, Colorado for the assist with our loose heat shield, some diet cokes and some hilariously signs to entertain us while we waited for the car.

Really impressed with my experience. Friendly, extremely knowledgeable owner and they did quite a few repairs in about 36 hours. Even went above and beyond what I paid for. I will definitely be coming back for any future automotive repair need.

I was very impressed how much knowledge was shared as "why we needed the work done". It wasn't like you need these 8 items done or else. We were given valid reasons for work needed now and what could wait. We were introduced to both Ed and Doyle in which Doyle completed the work I feel like we were a priority for the day and the work was completed very timely. The shop was extremely clean and the Coca Cola waiting area was fun. Best car experience I ever had. Thanks Greg for all the info you gave to us. I highly recommend you check it out for yourself!

Greg and his team did a great job of getting my daughter's car fixed and back on the road.

On our road trip from west coast to east coast we started having issues with our brakes. Greg at Advanced Automotive was able to squeeze me in the same day. Greg was so kind, accommodating and great at communicating with us. He even let us hangout in his super cool lobby with our dog. Thank you Greg and all the mechanics for saving our road trip!!

Always great care is given to may car here! No other shop has given the attention to detail to all my fluid levels, tire condition, air filters, etc. when I come in for a simple oil change. Greg and his team are the best!

Amazing experience, I highly recommend!!! We had the best experience with Greg and his team! We were stuck in Golden with our van and when we called at Advanced Automotive, Greg was already in solution mode. Their schedule was full, but he told us that he will do his best to pass us between appointments to check our van. As soon as we got there, they checked our van and the problem was fixed the day after! Greg is very knowledgeable and super kind! I highly recommend this garage, they are very professional and honest!

Greg is such a nice guy. Walked me through everything that needed to be done to my car and why. Explained all the costs. And when I needed new tires, he even help me set up a last minute appointment. Super knowledgeable and friendly. Awesome waiting area too (I was able to work remotely with comfort).

We were in a difficult spot, and I feel this shop went above and beyond to fix the problem! We were coming from out of town, and had checked in with 2 other shops, Greg heard our problem/situation and said he would try his best. They stayed late Friday afternoon and got it done! Saved our day and saved a couple of us from driving back in a rental! Thanks!!

After our car breaking down in Golden, we had trouble finding a mechanic who had space to take us. We had to have it fixed by Saturday, and they stayed late Friday to get it fixed up so we could get back to our families across state lines. That was amazing service and we are all so grateful. We were without service most the trip (went backpacking) and he left 4 messages with updates on the process. Greg (owner) had a great demeanor, and takes a ton of pride in his shop. Something was just different about this place… if i still lived in Golden, no, Colorado, I would go out of my way to have him service my vehicle. To top it off: few automotive places are as clean as this one! It just shows his professionalism and pride he puts on his work.
