James is great! He was able to fix my car same day and I needed help with my AC at check out and he was able to take a look and get that fixed too. He is reasonably priced as well.

James did a great job on my truck. I recommend him highly.

These guys are the best! Fast friendly service and my truck is running like a champ!

James is extremely professional and will work with you to get your car up and running without breaking the bank. Hes been our go-to mechanic for several years and we have no interest in going to anyone else.

Great little shop. Had car towed in the night before. Bad Fuel pump. By the time I got off work the next day car was fixed and running. Was charge exactly as quoted.I will be using this shop in the future.

Super friendly and reasonably priced!! I may even say AMAZINGLY priced!! Fast service! Great dudes!

Husband and myself essential workers, ex military went to James with an open ended account on both our vehicles. expressed our position of having the cash ( saved over time), and the need for an honest mechanic. tired of getting screwed in the past. had the direct conversation with James himself. dont mind paying whatever it cost, trust was of the utmost importance. he assured us he understood where we were comming from. left vehicle one with our own parts supplied, vehicle two in his shop with a down payment of a thousand dollars in his possession for over a month. called, asked if addition money was required, looking for an update, after many times to reach James he finally got back to us and said we could pick up vehicle. needless to say day one of repairs my husband broke down halfway to work. cost us a tow, days labor, a write up at our job, and rental car costs. did not change out a small part on gas. line as he said plus many other things that were said to have been done but were not. per new mechanic. needless to say as of this point in time neither vehicle working, neither one of us has a job anymore due to pandemic and these vehicle issues. 5000 dollars plus it what it cost to believe in someone doing what they said they were going to do. do we think James himself is directly a bad shady person? no, we try to believe he is overwhelmed, passed our truck issues on to others, who somehow let us all down. all though this situation had been devastating in the long run we still believe that James is innately a decent human being and we wish him well.

James built a new motor for my moms 69 camaro. He did a fantastic job and was very thorough with taking car of the car. Would definitely recommend anybody with a classic or hotrod use him. Very satisfied with how it all turned out.

Honest, helpful, does good work. I would highly recommend Canavans to any friend who needs a mechanic.

This place was referred to me by my friend from work my car had an emergency, front brakes issues needs to be fix asap. I called in the morning talked to James the owner and I got an appointment after work drop it off and out of there before 3:30pm to get back to my dog:) His very nice and helpful. Thank you again James👍

James is awesome! Sometimes its hard to know which mechanic to trust to give it to you straight. James went above and beyond to help me in a desperate situation (even willing to come on his day off). He is a very honest guy and I would trust him for all my mechanic needs, and you should too.

Small business, but straight forward and does quality work.

Cant say enough about this place, super fantastic work, down to earth owner!!! We will be returning with anymore car repairs we may need!!!!!

Called about 10 shops looking for some help with a DIY project gone South. Everyone was booked out 2 weeks. Ty on the other hand was able to squeeze me in at the end of his day and have me back out the door in about 20 minutes. That right there is how you make customers for life.

Great shop everyone there is super friendly and gets work done in a timely manner. Would highly recommend!

James figured out very difficult issues with the engine in my Honda Pilot. He is very smart and found the exact problem and fixed it. His price was very reasonable for the repair. It has been over a month now and my Pilot is still running strong. I highly recommend James to honestly find and fix your automotive issues. Also he communicates well and is patient to explain technical issues so you can understand. A great mechanic you can send your friend to...

Great service and nice to have someone care and find out whays wrong with my car and not just refer me somewhere else.. Thank you James for great customer service and great work on my car

Our brake lights werent working even after replacing the bulbs, and we were an hour drive away from home. We called a few other places before finding the phone number for this shop, but everywhere was closed on Saturday. James was getting ready to leave the shop for the day but stuck around for us. He quickly diagnosed that the switch that turns on the brake lights was fried, got the part delivered, and installed it, for a reasonable price. Glad we didnt have to drive home without brake lights or post up in a motel waiting for somewhere to take a day to fix it.

I called the number to try and schedule an appointment.james answers I tell him my situation and he says he will call me back. I waited and never got a phone call. I mentioned I believe it is the differential. Sounded like you wanted no business after I said that to you.

I have had ongoing work with James, here is my evaluation below-James is a A1 perfect mechanic, any misunderstandings he had always covered without question. He wants his customers to be happy and be a loyal base. Auto repair is difficult in that a shop can’t take every “customer” diagnosis sight unseen. (Example I need new lifters, etc.) James let’s you know up front what you should expect. My truck has come out very nice despite disintegration of wiring and issues from a previous mechanic.The shop is not a dealer “spaceship” type of shop, but James is reputable and stands behind his work.If you want quality work at a lower than dealer price I recommend James, is a great cost saving option and far more personable!

James is the best in the Business! He went above and beyond to get my Van back on the road. He drove 80 miles after running his shop all day to my place to weld up a custom bracket for me. This guy can do anything! He went above and beyond. I will be taking my Van up there for a few upgrades, now that I can drive it to his Shop.Thanks James!

Job went great top end rebuilt on a 2011ram 1500

Does quality work and an all around good dude!

I would give Canavan Auto more stars if I could.My timing belt broke on a Friday night and I called James early on Saturday morning. I had my car back by Tuesday afternoon.Besides the great customer service, he suggested a tow company and saved me $20, his quote for the timing belt beat the other mechanic by far, and he made sure to let me know about any issues he saw while he was under the hood.Honestly, my car runs stronger after he worked on it. I will go back to him for any future repairs and I highly recommend him to anyone who needs auto work done.

Got recommend by word of mouth. James and his crew did me good and I have other projects Im going to throw his way!

Never heard of Canavans Auto Repair, needed some Sparco stainless pedals attached to my 2016 Buick LaCrosse. James modified the pedals, made sure they were a perfect fit and did an outstanding job! I will be coming here again for more aftermarket work.

Always able to make an appt. Customer service is awesome and always able to fix or recommend another to fix my vehicles. Overall very empressed with him and his shops performance and professionalism.

Always open even on some Sundays and is quick to get your car back to you on too top working order James rocks in my book

You wont find a more honest mechanic.
