Recommended to me by a couple of my coworkers, I took my van here to take care of an oil leak.
Alan and the rest were excellent and the total cost of work was reasonable and less than I was prepared for.
We also took another vehicle there about a month ago. Alan helped to get it back up and running as well as gave us great advice and options how we could proceed. Everything coincided with what we knew and expected.
Will I use them again… absolutely.
Would I recommend them… absolutely.

I left my car in front of the shop at night to have it repaired in the morning, and left the keys at the reception desk as requested by the craftsman. When I came in the morning, they said horrible things to me on the phone, and last night someone wearing a hoodie threw a rock at the back window of my car, breaking it. Nothing was taken though.
When I told the craftsman that I could just have the window repaired, the store employee told me that they wouldn't do it and that I had to fix it myself.
Even if I ask for recommendations or guides, I only understand how to use it for used pages on the web.
I thought he was very professional, but I'm disappointed.
The store is on Vancouver Island, but if you're around here, be sure to go check it out in Tofino or Juan de Fuca! !

Been having car problems with my 10 year old vehicle, and the team here got it back on the road and running smoothly. Fair pricing and Al is knowledgeable and always had time for my questions. I recommend these guys to all my friends. Can't say enough good things about Departure Bay Auto Service!

Thank you Al for your honest and professional expertise. It was fun to learn some advice coming from a very experienced person and I'll always remember to follow it. You and Murray did a great job on fixing my car even on a snowy day! I finally found my go-to mechanic in town ?

I don’t trust too many people to work on my own vehicle but Al and his team are ones I trust. He helped get my work van on the road and were fantastic! They know their stuff, are honest and fair. Thank you!

Al was wonderful to work with. I had an inspection and work completed on my vehicle here. Al was upfront, professional, and gave me the best value for the work needed on the vehicle.

Al and his crew have worked on my truck's brake, differential, and manual transmission components. I've come to trust his team for these not so minor jobs for their efficiency and competency. I highly recommend Departure Bay Auto.Services: Steering & suspension repair
