Testimonials
Olivia D: Our oil line ruptured on the way to Crested Butte for a vacation. Our car had to be towed to Crested Butte. Daniel and the Crested Butte Auto Repair team professionally and quickly repaired our vehicle. The price was reasonable and the service was friendly. Daniel also helped us get a refund from Toyota for the repair and towing. I highly recommend Crested Butte Auto Repair!
Alice N: I was stuck in CB with a flat tire a few weeks ago. I drove over to their shop and they were able to squeeze me in and fix my tire within 1.5hours. I made it back to Denver safely. Thank you!
Olivia M: These guys were amazing. CB Auto provided the most genuine & honest experience I've ever had at an auto shop. My car started to make odd noises while driving over Monarch Pass to CB for a weekend trip with friends. My friends needed to catch flights from DIA early Monday morning and fixing the car before then seemed unlikely. I called the shop and reached John right before closing Friday evening. Without having an appointment or ever using CB Auto prior, John offered to take a drive with my vehicle to assure it’s safety for my return trip Sunday. The crew was quick to diagnose my car’s alignment issue and then, stayed past close to fix the problem! As a result of the complications, I needed a new tire to replace my completely worn down one. John called a shop in Gunnison on my behalf (one of few open on Saturdays) to see if they had the size tire I needed & then confirmed they could work on my car first thing the next morning. The guys were extremely friendly and helpful from my initial call to the end of my visit. When I asked how much I owed them, they told me not to worry about it. Our trip back to Denver would have been delayed through Monday, had it not been for their willingness to fit me in that evening.
Jim C: Very impressive experience. Driving from Boulder, our Pilot's engine light came on in CB which is a huge concern being a long way away from your own trusted auto mechanic. Called John at CB Auto Repair and had clear, competent communication. Brought in the car and Daniel(?) pulled the code, researched it on-line, gave me the printout (a switch failure that shuts down cylinders to save fuel in certain driving conditions) and discussed with me possible causes and remedies and worked through a plan and alternatives. He knew his stuff and was a great communicator! He reset the code (which hasn't come back on in the last 2 days). I asked how much I owed him and they said "don't worry about it". Overall, a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend CB Auto Repair should you have any issues with your car.
Adam Z: The service here is top notch. I really like doing business with Dan and his entire crew is knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommended!
Scott R: We were on vacation in CB and I experienced low oil pressure in my 2008 Yukon Denali briefly upon startup (1-2 secs) in Amarillo and then again when moving my vehicle in CB for overnight parking. (Prior to the trip, I had also been experiencing lifter noise upon cold startup (3-5 seconds) - which local GMC dealer in Dallas said was no issue and common to high mileage vehicles). Oil pressure was fine when driving on the way to CB and before, but never reacted to RPM, just always stayed around 30-35. After doing research and trying to decide which auto shop to use in CB/Gunnison, I went with CB Auto Repair. I had a great conversation with John, but still lacked confidence that they were going to figure it out (no offense John!). Well, I couldn't have been more wrong about his shop. They diagnosed the issue within a few hours to a failing o-ring on the oil pickup tube. Strangely enough, the process was to overfill the crankcase then lift the rear end of the vehicle 3 feet in the air which forces the extra oil in the pan to submerge the o-ring thereby eliminating the cavitation that was occurring. After spending 6 hours to replace the pickup tube (have to remove front diff and other things!), pressure is now 60# at cold startup and there is NO lifter noise at all - affluent Dallas dealership was wrong! Pressure when hot is now 25-30# at idle and tracks RPMs up to 40-42# during driving. Yukon is running like a champ and a "little garage" in Crested Butte figured it all out!! I found out afterwards that other friends that spend a lot of time in CB have used John before with great success as well. And to top it all off, his labor cost was 2/3 was the Dallas dealership would have charged me as I called them to compare. Thank you CB Auto!!
Thomas B: It was the Sunday before the Fourth of July in crested butte during the busiest weekend of year and after a walk on the town I came back to my car and had a flat with no spare. Every shop I looked up in town was closed but I happened to be right next to crested butte auto repair so I walked over and noticed someone was doing shop work inside. I asked if they were open and they said no but we can still help you out. So they gave me an air pump and I pumped my tire up across the street, drove it into the shop and they not only fixed it for me but gave me 10 bucks off!! Cheers to Dennis at Crested Butte Auto Repair you saved the day even on your day off! I highly recommend using this place for your car needs. It was quick, convenient and you can tell they really do just want to help.
