Denver Auto Repair

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. Yours truly, David "Turbo-charged" M.

Moved in down the street 2.5 yrs ago with two Toyotas, 2008 RAV and 2009 Camry hybrid. Local friend said "try hotchkiss, good people, good price, excellent work". so we did. Have taken both, brakes, water pump, front end noise, RAV brakes and noise "no you don't need brakes, they're fine, got miles to go yet, they do just get a little noisy when wet or cold, see ya later". in other words no sales job, no bull crap, no charge, just honest assesment. Dealer during recall work says your Camry water pump needs replace to my wife for many hundreds dollars, i tell her let's get another quote from someone we trust, "yes it is leaking, no you should not wait, and its only a couple hundred dollars", what more can you ask? Plus I work downtown, the 15 bus stops outside their door. Went elsewhere for windshield replace due to convenience and price one saturday, but just can't think of any reasons not to call, stop in, get a quote from these folks. Gee, it's about time for those brakes, guess I know who I'm going to call!

There is no better shop for integrity and professional work. We've been taking care of our two 9 year old cars since we moved to Denver 3 years ago. Their work is always good and they are honest about discussing alternatives. For example, they said I could wait to do a repair because it just didn't need to be done right now. Also, their estimate was WAY below the Audi dealers price. Don't hesitate to take your care here.
