Davies Auto Care - Auto Repair in Cathedral City CA in
Cathedral City (CA)

I've relied on Davie's for two to three years to maintain my 30-year-old Lexus. Their mechanics are consistently competent, and I consider the owner a good man. The front desk staff are mechanics themselves and very knowledgeable. Though prices are a bit high, I know it's hard to ruin a business in California. Recently, my old car broke down a couple of times, and a minor mistake by Davie's led to a few extra visits. But considering the car's age and the desert summer, I found the owner and staff receptive. They researched thoroughly, and we reached a fair, amicable solution. I believe the owner cares about his customers and the reputation of the business he's built over those last many years.

I've been taking all my vans to Davies for years. I know my vehicles are in safe hands. Staff is friendly and Dave is always there to say hello. I highly recommend Davies.

Excellent service at reasonable prices. They thoroughly explain all the work required. Very friendly and professional. If you have AAA, they will apply the applicable discount, if any.

I had asked a friend for a referral to a car repair place. It was Davies. I was so pleased. Even though it turned out to be a larger job than first thought,I was kept informed; everything was explained. It was not exorbitant cost. I didn’t feel taken advantage of.

The alternator stopped charging and my battery had a bad cell. After towing, repairs and expedient service, my vehicle was ready in less than 24 hours! Exemplary service!

Very happy with my service at Davies. Elizabeth made everything easy and she contacted me with clear and precise information to get it all taken care of in a timely manner. I recommend this shop and felt they did a thorough and professional job on my car

Davie’s professional team is awesome. Honest and thorough with great customer service.

I moved away from the Palm Springs area for about two years. Most folks would miss the desert sunsets or the night skies. I ended up missing Davies. With them, car maintenance is one less thing that I have to worry about. They’re honest, always do a superb job, and are reasonably priced. It doesn’t get better!

They promise me and did exactly what I requested. I will be back back for more repairs if needed

Thank you so much, the pre purchase inspection was so easy especially being in another state. Elizabeth jumped thru hoops checking my extra requests! Thank you so much!!

Davies has always been and continues to be my go to for automobile maintenance. Always honest, fair, and takes great pride in their work and customer experience. A special thank you to Elizabeth for all of her help with the warranty company.

Davies is by far the best auto service I’ve used in the CV. They are skilled, professional, and fair with their pricing. I’m moving out of the area and I wish I could take them with me.

Davies is definitely my go to shop for all my auto care needs. Great knowledgeable and friendly people who are quick to do all my maintenance and repairs.

Was just referred here, so glad I found them. They are honest, very fairly priced and don’t up sell you! My car was fixed and was ready quickly. They are incredibly polite and professional! Such a convenient location too!

If I could give 10 stars to Davies Auto Care-Auto Repair I would do so. This is the car repair place you wished you knew about all along. Everyone is wonderful. They actually care about your car, which is so refreshing. This is the car repair place I'd trust with my car. Don't delay, get your car tuned up today at Davies Auto Care.

Davies Auto Care is my trusted mechanic service. It's across-town for me, and we're now a one-car household, so I have to wait there while work is done. This trust goes a long way in helping me justify the time and expense. I've left restaurants/films/relationships because of dis-trust, and that is NOT the case here. Good business, good people. Only one request: As we're so tied to our phones, and sometimes the wait is necessary, maybe wifi access to internet for customers might help in diffusing the time. Also, if *I* could do a little proactive research, I'd like to find a food place nearby, walking distance.

Took my Range Rover sport 2019 in for a diagnostic because I had charging issues. They charged me $85 for a diagnostic. They said my alternator was good and I just needed a Range Rover battery. I asked them what they use to test the alternator and they said their software system that plugs into the vehicle. I asked him did they do any manual test with a multimeter on the alternator itself and they said they didn't because somehow this software system accomplishes it. They tried saying my battery wasn't recharging because of a misaligned fan which would cause $2100 to repair before they could even diagnose any other issue with the charging system. This was all on a bunch that the technician said he experienced working on another Range Rover. All I did was China flashlight at the fan trying to say it's not spinning perfectly even though it wasn't even coming close to hitting anything or even rubbing against anything. Then I asked him how much oil change would be and they said it would be $500 and I'm like that's more than Range Rover charges. So I took it to Range Rover Dealership service center for a diagnostic. They said the battery is good and I don't have to have a Range Rover battery as long as the CCA is above 850 which the battery was 900. They said there's nothing wrong with the fan. Is it the fan wouldn't be causing electrical problem. Maybe engine overheating or air condition might not run as well but it wouldn't be causing an electrical problem. Especially if it wasn't hitting anything. I took it to another shop to do the work on the alternator. They replaced the alternator with the same battery that Davies said was bad. Car has been running perfectly since.

I scheduled an appointment and arrived to find they weren’t expecting me; they never entered it into the computer. I had to come back for a second appointment. My car spent three days at their shop, spending most of that time sitting on their lot. The end result? They wanted $600 to replace the battery, $800 to diagnose my car further, and $180 for the work they did so far. When talking with the mechanic, I realized he was guessing, not diagnosing. I pulled my car out of there immediately. On the drive home, I figured out what was wrong and was correct in my diagnosis (needed an air filter.) And I’m not even a mechanic! From now on, I’m going to my dealer for service.

Great place to get auto service. My 1999 Nissan Maxima was damaged beyond reasonable repair after a tire blew out and I hit the median, and Dave hooked me up with a salvage guy who paid me $125 for it. He also found an old tire and put it on for free. Great experience, they made a difficult situation more tolerable. On the bright side, I am now the proud owner of a new 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe!

Davies always does great work. Its hard to find an honest, reliable mechanic, but Davies is the best. They let you know when things are coming up in the future so you are not surprised. If you need a mechanic, give Davies a try.

Davies Auto Care took great care of my car after I had a very negative experience at the service center at Palm Springs Ford. The team at Davies is amazing! They are friendly, thorough and professional. I highly recommend Davies Auto Care.

Davies Auto Care is always very professional. I've been taking my car to them for 3 years. Their technicians are very thorough, look at details and are honest about when and why something needs to be done. They don't try to up sell you on what you don't need. They are very respectful and polite:)

Every time I take my car in I'm treated like a special person. They are so professional, reliable, honest and know how to please their customers. They take great care of my Mercedes Benz and their prices are more affordable than the dealership. 10 Gold Stars

I’ve been taking my car to Davies Auto Care for 8 years now and will continue to do so. At Davies they are professional, responsive, informative and very easy to work with. In the past, taking my car in to any repair shop always came with a good amount of stress but not with Davies. Seriously there’s no reason to take your car anywhere else. Go to Davies.

This was the second time that I’ve taken my car to Davies Auto Repair and once again I’m quite satisfied. They were honest about the car not needing some things to be done yet and were true to the estimate and actual cost. The only area I would suggest they work on is with regards to the text messaging when the inspection was finished. It looked like the inspection was done at 9:30 in the morning but I didn’t get the text message until 3 in the afternoon.

I have had two vehicles maintained at Davies since I moved to the desert. The work, recommended maintenance, customer service, and pricing have been excellent. Dave and Elaine care about their customers and do a fantastic job. I highly recommend Davies Auto Care!

Need your AC or anything fixed? Go to Davies!! I paid a bunch of money with another mechanic in Cat City, who specializes in foreign cars, have my AC repaired. I spent $2,000 for the repair along with other services questionably necessary. The AC stopped working weeks after. When I called them to bring it back in I was met with a “not our problem” attitude. I chose not to subject myself to their service and made an appointment with Davies. It was a night and day different experience with Davies Auto Care! Their CS is outstanding! They communicate - with text, emails, and phone calls. Most importantly my AC works!! If it stops working again, I have confidence they’ll take care of it and treat me with kindness. I couldn’t recommend them more highly!
