Dad's Automotive - Owensboro, Kentucky

Came here from out of town. They diagnosed my issue before I could even walk through the door, just from hearing my fans as I pulled into the lot. Had me back on the road next day. I coincidentally ran over 3 nails the day of my appointment and asked them if they could fix that, which they did free of charge. Highly recommend.

Friendly, Fast, and Knowledgeable customer service and mechanics. They stayed in contact and Communicated exactly what was happening with my vehicle and the necessary repairs. What I would of payed elsewhere most likely way to much, Dads made sure to just get down to the point and only fix what needed fixing. I will definitely recommend this shop to all my friends and I know they will be my go to with all my vehicles for any repairs. This is a family ran business that is dedicated to doing the right thing. ✅️

Paid $37.50 for a diagnosis. It was diagnosed wrong so I am out $140, and he didn’t actually diagnose the problem at hand. There was also an oil leak and a brake fluid leak he didn’t even catch when he was supposed to be diagnosing the problem. Oil was bone dry when I got to autozone. Girl at the front promised me he saw no other problems. I asked twice in person. When I called back to tell them that it wasn’t fixed just a few days later, they wanted me to pay the $37.50 diagnostics fee AGAIN. I don’t think it’s a clueless problem as much as it is a he didn’t care to run a full diagnostics, didn’t pay attention, maybe he’s just too busy. And the girl up front does seem absolutely clueless though. Considering there was no effort to make the situation right, I cancelled my appointment to take it back and wanted to warn others as well. Will not return.

Purchased four new tires and it was ready in a short time. My front tire was not balanced properly, so I took it back the next day. He balanced it right away. The young lady who answers the phone is so sweet. She answered all of my questions. If you need a tire plugged, I definitely recommend taking it here as they plug it within a few minutes and you're on your way.

Had a nail in our tire and no spare so we got our van towed to Dads and it was minutes before they closed, but the young man there plugged the tire and saved us a whole lot of heads for the next day. I wish I would have gotten his name but thank you so much. You have a life long customer!

Broke down Easter Sunday. Made the call first thing Monday morning and they were able to work me in. Great prices, finished when they said they would and best yet...AWESOME SERVICE! Most definitely recommend for any local folks and ones passing thru. Thanks Dad's!

If I could give zero stars I would. To start with the lady at the desk(blonde, tall, frail, and a black nose ring) was super rude. She kept cutting me off mid sentence and then told me I came in sideways.. even after several attempts to de escalate the situation.

I had asked for a full diagnosis, even though I was only having a brake problem, so that I could be aware of any future problems that might come up. They only did the brake diagnosis. Charged me a little over $100 for the diagnosis and a “jump start fee”. Then they came back and told me it was a caliper leak along with something else and quoted me $571 to fix. After the quote is when the lady was super rude to me and I ended up walking out feeling insulted(might I add with no harsh words said back to her, her response was “Bye” in the most sarcastic way possible). I took it to another shop and they told me a completely separate issue(brake hose) that was much less expensive to fix($128). Been driving it around now just fine. DO NOT USE DADS AUTO UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE TALKED DOWN TO AND OVERCHARGED!!!

Guy was super nice! Came out and pumped my gas, which I love! Asked a couple of questions and I told him I was in a hurry that day so he grabbed ticket and I signed it (they have charge accounts!) local owners and hard workers!
