What Our Customers Are Saying

Excellent service. Everything that I wanted/needed done at a reasonable price.

Excellent service

It's always with confidence that I bring my cars to Gilbert Motor Service. Darren Gilbert, the owner, is a master mechanic, and I know my car will be serviced properly at his facility. Friendly staff, and great results. Repairs and service are much more reasonably priced than at the dealer's ! If you want your vehicle repaired or serviced properly, take it to Gilbert Motors.

5000 mile service on my Lexus UX 250h. The dealers wanted significantly more and the hours I would spend at the dealer made me check with Darren at Gilberts. He recommended an oil change every 5000 miles not 10000 as the dealer states. His opinion was that 10000 miles was too long and could cause long term damage to the engine. Even with the oil change his price was less than any dealer charged just for brake and fluid check and tire rotation. Needless to say I will be back in 5000 miles!
