Customer Review
★★★★★
After my last shop had undergone a change in management (for the worse) I had about lost all hope of there being an ethical, competent full-service auto repair shop in Dayton. These guys surpassed my expectations by a long shot. Greg was remarkably fair and honest about the inoperable state of my car and what it would cost to fix the issue. While I prioritize a job done right over rapidly, the speed of the techs' service was a big bonus in the short time I've been a customer here. I say this wholeheartedly: My experience with Gateway is definitely a one-eighty from what one typically associates with underhanded auto repair shops that are all too rampant throughout Dayton. So long as Greg and Dan are at this shop, Gateway Auto Clinic has my total confidence; I am 100% recommending this place to my friends, family, and colleagues.
