After paying a high diagnostic fee and getting what I felt was a excessive quote on a major repair from a dealership I decided to research alternative service outlets / costs on the Net. During a two day search one name kept coming up in the form of positive reviews from various sources (Google Search, Yelp, Angie’s List) and that was Clarke Automotive Service. The service there matched the reviews in terms of honesty, reliability and professionalism (All technicians are ASE Certified). On top of that Tom and Matt Clarke personally guided me through the logistics of this major repair in terms of alternative transportation, potential service problems, timelines and costs. Service was performed as stated and needless to say I will have all future service performed at Clarke Automotive; simply the best auto service I’ve found during ten years of living in the Bay Area
