Denver Auto Repair

Well, I WAS going to write a good review, then I saw the picture of David in his Colts jersey. :-) Seriously, finding a good mechanic is important, like a good doctor, and Hotchkiss is the best. We take an old Toyota Avalon and a newer Acura MDX there so I know they do anything we need on both cars (new and old, AWD and FWD, dealer service and maintenance/repair). They're fast, friendly and very reasonable. We found them when they donated to our kids' high school silent auction (so there you have community involvement) and we've been going ever since. They deserve a 6th star!

I love this place! I always feel confident in the work they are doing, and trust that they will give me honest advice and estimates for work that needs doing, before going ahead with it. The service is always pretty speedy too. The 3 giant pups is just a great bonus when having to take my car to the shop :)

Great place that is trustworthy.

Let's try this again. My first review was slightly off base because of a lack of questioning from my side. After a review from the owner (major props for responding), I feel a more adequate review can be made. I usually go to Jeff's auto off Broadway. They have been good to me and my car, but it's pretty far out of the way for me. So I tried Hotchkiss. I was going in for an oil change and brake repair. I had an estimate in my mind of how much it would be, but when I got my quote, it was almost double what I was expecting. Here's where I am at fault - I didn't ask why it was so much more than what I thought. I had read the reviews for Hotchkiss and knew that they do great work so I thought maybe this is the going price. After the owner responded, I am now aware that the quality of part they are putting in is above average. Which is awesome! I would have liked to be informed of this prior to the quote was given to me, but I should also have asked. All in all, it was a good experience and would still recommend this place to others. Ok, I really wanted to like this place. The reviews seemed great. After coming here, I left disappointed. They are super nice and were very informative. But they're definitely overpriced. Sad Panda.

Absolutely best auto repair in the city! Very friendly and HONEST !,,

I've used Hotchkiss in the past for regular service and their mechanics are expirenced and prompt. Would reccomend their shop to any family and friend.

They do great work. Work on my vintage t-bird and have had flawless service. Dave (the owner) is such a great guy. Really cares about your vehicle and takes a personal level of interest in your satisfaction. Highly recommend them.

All Around bad service!!!!!!

Elite '2020 Elite '2020 This is the best auto repair & maintenance shop I am aware of in Denver. This is apparent by the number of customers that are repeat. There's a waiting period to get your vehicle serviced here, so don't expect to just drop it off in the morning and pick it up at lunch (just call first, is what I'm suggesting). I have a 2004 Jeep, and when it started overheating, my old shop guy told me that I probably blew a header, and that it would be 'like $1600 bucks to fix'... Took it for a second opinion. It was a solenoid or some such crap, fixed for about $300. That would have been a $1600 dollar mistake, only not to solve the problem had I just stuck with my old shop. I have a new shop now. Hotchkiss!

Elite '2020 Elite '2020 I'm a fan, for sure; from their sweet front of the house staff (angelic Christie) to their wonderful 185# English mastiff guard doggie, to their back of the house mechanics. Hotchkiss is a class operation. The only complaint I had was that their prices, as initially quoted, exceeded by a few dollars what a dealership wanted for the same work. The nice thing was that when I called that to their attention, they recalculated and volunteered to cut almost 20% from the cost. Work finished when promised and so far the car's running fine.
