Friendly service and they do great work on my vehicle and have the best prices in town.

Professional, knowledgeable, honest and friendly staff. I highly recommend this place.

BEST SHOP IN TOWN, Talk about a group of good guys. Honest, caring, affordable and mindful. The customer really does come first. Will continue using Dave Power Automotive for years to come and will refer anyone I know. Can not say enough good things, if I could leave six stars ****** I would!

Fast affordable friendly and the right repair every time.

Really good guy. Thanks Dave!

Quick honest service

I had an issue with my WaveRunner that I just purchased from a private party and these guys were able to get me in and look at it first thing in the morning so I could get back out on the water. The staff was fantastic and Dave was great at explaining some mechanical things I did not understand. We will definitely be back when we need any kind of service work on our boats and jet skis.

I've recently had my first interaction with Dave Power Automotive because of my recent purchase of a very special classic car. My family has always trusted them and had wonderful things to say about this business, so it was an obvious choice in who to call first. After being assisted by Bryan, who was very kind, and listened to my concerns about the vehicle, he was able to make me an appointment that fit into my schedule. He was able to answer all my questions, and offer additional information that was extremely helpful to me, being the first-time classic car owner. I can say that thanks to the amazing reviews of my family, and the outstanding help I received from Bryan, I'll be doing all my business with them. Thank you, Dave Power Automotive, and Bryan, for the wonderful example of customer service!

Dave and his crew went well beyond to fix my car and work with my warranty? They spent hours fighting for me and providing excellent mechanical service. Greatest auto shop ever. Special shoutout to Henry who was my go-to guy.

Great customer service. Very knowledgeable. Honest and just an all around great place to take your vehicle.

These guys are great. Very knowledgeable and helpful

Mat is the man, Always a pleasure good Sirs!

Good guys

I have always appreciated Dave Powers for honest customer service. I have respected there work to the point I have all of my Family using them for there automotive repair. Dave Power is the best all around service in Salem. I have had to just drop in with a problem and they set me up and have me taken care of in no time. Henry is great at keeping you informed on the timing and cost of your Repair.

My auto repair shop for many years. Dave hires only the best. He's worked my car in on several occasions when I had an emergency. This is an honest shop and only customer authorized repairs are completed. No sneaky add-ons to the bill. I highly recommend Dave Power Automotive. Oh, he also does boat repairs.

Awesome techs. These guys know there stuff and will give you a reasonable price. Plus they are fast, got electrical work done in 1 day! Highly recommend this shop.

Dave Power's has friendly employees and great service. I have never had any delays or problems with Dave. He helps you out the best ways possible for you and its a great shop. I highly recommend it for everyone!

Been doing with their power for over 20 years. number one guy I've use for all my boat accessories

Yes, I can't say enough good things about this place...after I had taken my vehicle to two other mechanics (and got the run-around) the mechanics here did the right thing. I had even been driving around on the hiway with an axle that was about to break...but they fixed it. They are honest and really look out well for their customers. Thumbs up.

I can not say enough about the guys at dave power... they found the issue and fixed the truck in less than 6 hours... and for a 1/2 of the price I had paid at prior mechanics... any one who knows me know I have had truck issues for a while now.... 3 mechanics and several thousand dollars later ... 3rd times the charm... I finally found a great place.... recommend them to anyone

A couple higher horsepower buddies recommended me to Dave Power after my WRX broke down. Well, a year later I’m now taking my Evo here. Very knowledgeable team, honest, and do great work. Ask for Henry!

Quick and friendly, need better parking

This is the most awesomest repair shop ever great people you will not meet more honest people and they do great work

5 star place always helpful

Can't believe how it feels to have a trusted Mechanic !! Started with a valve cover oil leak (on my 1999 Jeep) that I took to my old mechanic (Certified) who had changed hands, well after the first time it still leaked, took it back again, it still leaked, the 3rd time they said it was a warped value cover and they couldn't fix it ! My neighbor used Dave Power for his boat, said to try them ! Took it to Dave told them the story, He said He'd get it fixed ... They found that Certified Auto hadn't even put a gasket on the valve cover ... well they fixed it and pointed out a few other things that need repairers ...Well, the valve cover STILL LEAKED ...So, took it back to Dave and Henry said it probably the exhaust leak just below the oil leak, heating up the valve cover ... Fixed the exhaust problem and Replaced the valve cover with one of the mechanics old ones he had (with no charge) just paid for the exhaust manifold leak ... OIL LEAK ? Problem Solved !! ... I've taken it back and will continue to do so ...

Friendly and helpful. Extremely knowledgeable.

they did exactly what they said for exactly what they quoted and they did it faster than expected! ! will use again.

These guys did me great. I was quoted almost 600 to fix a hose by another mechanic, Dave Power did that and more for a third of the price. I'll definitely be back next time I have an issue with my vehicle.

Best Shopping Town over 20 years I've used him

I had both an emergency repair and a number of maintenance items done during this visit. I was impressed at how they understood budgets and the need to pick and choose. The did not push any service or operation. When unexpected items were discovered, an immediate phone call alerted me to the fact with the option to complete or skip it. Their estimate was spot on. Service was timely. I felt that I was in control of the transaction instead of being buffaloed into extra service on someone else's time frame. You can tell a lot about a business by how they interact with unexpected "problem" customers or repeat customers who might not be spending as much. Even the owner picked up the phone routinely and knew many of the customers by first name. They made time in their schedule for an emergency service and treated the customer respectfully and as if their money was the same as anyone else. Definitely going back with a different truck, a 1996 LandCruiser.

Very knowledgeable about old and new cars

They know there boats thats for sure

If you have a daughter who goes to school at Willamette University and you're looking for someone you can trust to take care of her car since you're too far away, this is the place. My daughter is graduating this year and I can only hope to find such a place again wherever her schooling takes her next. Four years of absolute honest and first rate service. I will miss these guys.

What an experience! I was referred to Dave Power by a friend and I am sure glad I took my time to drive there (3 hrs) for their service. I was purchasing a boat from a private seller and wanted Dave Power to do an inspection and appraisal. Dave and his team was EXCELLENT! They are great people. They knew what they were doing. They took their time to help me and deal with my credit union. They were honest to both me and the seller. I wish they were closer to where i live because I would make them my main place to go to. Thank you Dave and your team!!!! Ryan 1998 Duckworth

Very nice people. Friendly.

Not cheap, and that's a good thing! I actually trust them, and I would spend there again. They took time to show me what was wrong and fixed it right.

Needed a replacement prop for my boat, not only did they have it in stock, but took the time to make sure I knew how to put it on. Very friendly people, and awesome service. I would definitely recommend .

Henry and the guys are great. They helped me with my old truck and came in below what I was quoted ! That doesn't happen often . Thanks a million.

I really think you guys are aces. We bring in a car that is completely unrecoverable and you really treated us like we brought in a Lincoln Continental. You didn't have to arrange the tow, but you did. You probably didn't charge us for everything you did either. This is why we keep coming back. Dave has hired quality master mechanics and I'm so pleased his sons are being groomed to take the place over. They all do amazing mechanic work as well as customer service.

If your looking for an honest mechanic in Salem. Dave and crew are the guys. Never failed always show me what's wrong and are great communicators. Won't take my car to any other shop.

Best people bar none. They care about you and want you to be happy with the work they do. I have all of my vehicles serviced or repaired at Dave Power's Automotive & Marine

These guys are great. Jake was so helpful with an intermittent problem I had with my boat. He really cares about his customers. They are GREAT!! I was looking for a new place to take my boat after the loss of Alan's.....AND I FOUND ONE. Thanks for everything guys. Monte Scott

It is well known in the auto industry in the Mid-Willamette Valley that Dave Power Automotive & Marine runs the best shop. If you want to know where mechanics take their cars, it's here! I recently purchased an older sports car with total confidence because I knew Steve and everyone at Dave Power would take incredible care of it for me and they do. To Steve, Henry, Brian, and everyone at Dave Power: You Guys are The Best.

I have always found Dave Powers and his people to do excellent service and they stand behind their work 100%. They are honest and will tell you if your auto needs certain work or not and whether the parts are under warranty or not. I have used them for a number of years for several of my cars and my family.. I would never hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Your guys in the office were friendly and helpful as always. Work done on time👍🏼

We’ve been having our cars serviced here for a couple years. They’re honest, dependable, and great mechanics. I would recommend this place to my good friends! They remember customers and are very personable.

It's also nice that at Dave Power they don't shy away from the different. They have done an excellent job on the 81 DeLorean we have! thank you!

Henry was a true Professional in keeping me informed and what my car truly need to have done! Brought my car in for service and Dave Power checked into the issue and called to say we did not need the service. Best communication with a service department I have had from any auto service. Very honest, personal team of repair people you could ask for to look at your car. THANK YOU!

BEST SHOP IN TOWN, Talk about a group of good guys. Honest, caring, affordable and mindful. The customer really does come first. Will continue using Dave Power Automotive for years to come and will refer anyone I know. Can not say enough good things, if I could leave six stars ****** I would!

As always Henry got me in and taken care of in a short order. Nice to have a good honest mechanic. Thanks again

Dave Power auto-marine has integrity and provides excellent value. I would recommend them for service, however, the are already too successful! I have never seen such a busy place in any field. They always find time to do the necessary work and charge fairly.

Once again, everyone at Dave Power was terrific. Honest, timely, and fair. I would recommend, and have recommended them, to anyone.

Dave and his crew went well beyond to fix my car and work with my warranty? They spent hours fighting for me and providing excellent mechanical service. Greatest auto shop ever. Special shoutout to Henry who was my go-to guy.

The same thing every time- good service, fair price, high quality work. Those are the reasons I have been a customer for almost 20 years, boats and cars.

Called Dave with electric problem, wanted to go fishing but with electric problems could not make it out. He was able to get me in and fixed the problem in just a few hours, very fast. Would highly recommend.

I have trusted Dave Power A&M for well over ten years, they have never failed to preform as promised and in every single case, went above and beyond.

I have always appreciated Dave Powers for honest customer service. I have respected there work to the point I have all of my Family using them for there automotive repair. Dave Power is the best all around service in Salem. I have had to just drop in with a problem and they set me up and have me taken care of in no time. Henry is great at keeping you informed on the timing and cost of your Repair.

They have always fit me in and done an excellent job. They are the real thing. Customer Service is not dead with those guys.

My car feels like a new car now, so safe. Doesn't make a single noises, previously there were many. Only had to pay for 1 hour for diagnosis. The Honda dealership tried to charge $670 just for the diagnosis. The list of repairs was long but he explained every item and took every call and question I had. Emailed the itemization to review also until I was sure and ready this was the right thing to.do and I trusted them completely.

I can not say enough about the guys at dave power... they found the issue and fixed the truck in less than 6 hours... they called right away when they found the issues and when it was done... ... and for a 1/2 of the price I had paid at prior mechanics... any one who knows me know I have had truck issues for a while now.... 3 mechanics and several thousand dollars later... i have had my truck at 2 other shops over the course of a year and no one could fix my trucks issue... 3rd times the charm... i will be going back and recommend them to anyone

I have referred others to Dave Power because I know they will no longer have to play a guessing game about vehicle repairs. When I take my vehicles in I don’t worry about whether or not I will be faced with unnecessary service or repairs. I explicitly trust Dave Power and his crew.

They fit my car into the schedule,and quickly resolved the problem at the least cost to me. Very impressed with my first visit at Dave Power Automotive and would highly recommend to friends and family.

They always do what they can to get me right in and have a solution that is not the most expensive. They will provide a ride to and from the shop if needed and do what it takes to make it easy on the customer. I brought my car in they check everything out and worked with me to get what was needed now and scheduled other service at a later date to help me budget the work. Quality Service at the right price! I refer anyone looking for the best automotive shop in Salem to Dave Power.

Fast, Quality, Afforadable Service with Friendly Professionalism.

You had the experience to know what I needed to fix the power steering.

Thanks for your service and customer service! You guys are the best! You stand behind what you do and certainly take care of people! We were recommended to you and with our a doubt your name and business will go to all in our community! Thank you!

As I expected and more... you were wonderful in accomadating my schedule and needs. You did an awesome job, everything perfect and polished and didn't matter that I don't have a truck anymore. Forget 5 star, your a 10! I tell everyone to see you!

Took the time necessary to clean up old stuff in the cover.

I put my truck into Dave Power and they were able to get if fixed in excellent time. Other auto shops i have used have had poor customer service and/or were unable to be specific on how to fix my vehicle. The Dave Power shop was not like this, infact I will be using them (for all my auto repair needs) from here on out!

I find your work to be excellent which is the reason I keep coming back.

I wouldn't take my boat for winterization or service anywhere else. Not only do they know exactly what they're doing and do so professionally, but they are also always personable and fun to interact with. It doesn't hurt that their shop is halfway between my house and work.

When you're "in a pickle" with your vehicle, head to Dave Power Automotive! This honest, professional team won't let you down! I cannot begin to tell you how many times Dave and his team have "saved our bacon" on very short notice! We have never failed to leave his shop with a smile on our faces for work well done!

I am always taken care of and I know that I can trust Dave Power Aitomotive. They pay attention to detail and I always feel like they care about whatever project they are working on for me

If you need a mechanic team you can trust look no further!

Great service and reasonable price. The people here treat you like family. I've been going to Dave Power for years. And I always receive quality work by honest people. I have sent many family and friends to their shop.

The entire group always does a great job. Josh let me know exactly what was going on with the boat and shopped around for parts at a lower cost.

I inherited my grandfathers 1989 mazda pick-up. Keeping it in tip top shape has been a mater of pride and Dave Power Automotive has always been spot on with repairs at a valued price. Now that my son has turned 18 he will the next generation of customer for this great mechanic. Keep up the great work guys.

Great owner, family and team. Excellent work service and attitude. With fair prices.

I called before I scheduled service because we were thinking of doing it ourselves. However, after talking with Henry about the car, the tool, and any possible complications, my husband & I decided to have Power do it. They not only had it in & out quickly, but noticed the automatic windows needed lube too--as a bonus. And noticed a sound that could become another issue(the car is 20 years old!!). Very pleasant and helpful. Very honest. Dependable. We've used this garage before and they stand behind their work & parts.

These guys went through my 2005 Dakota with a fine tooth comb and found all the things that weren't working right as well as all the leaks...fixed everything and had the old truck running like a top. The price was less than I had thought it would be so I couldn't be happier. They called and kept me in the loop on a regular basis and got the job done right. May have taken a bit longer than expected but with the bad weather and guys being out sick I think they did great! Won't be taking my truck anywhere else! Thanks!

I have always had a honest and friendly customer service rep each time I have used Dave Power. I have referred and will continue to recommend their automotive service. Everyone at Power strives to give the best in service and customer satisfaction. Thanks

Everything was done as expedted.

These guys really know how to be professional. Took my boat in for a no start and he had it started in under 15 minutes. Jake explained to me how and what he did. Went above and beyond helping load the boat onto vehicle and disconnect the Battery for the winter. He used professional language with is a lost art these days. Henry was also very professional in his language and skills. Really appreciate being treated with respect. Thank you.

This team is top notch; honest, fair, fast, and professional. We take all are outdoor/marine motor challenges to them AND we refer our friends and family to them. They may not be the cheapest but when they get it done in half the time that hourly rate is a mute point as it still works out in your favor. 👍

Again, Henry and the Dave Power Team come through when I need them. Helped my son in a pinch when he needed a quick brake repair. In and out and back on the road in about 1.5 hrs! Thanks-Rich Knoll

In and out service every time

Your shop is the only one I trust my vehicle for service. Thank you for the fast and great service.

The Dave Power team always does a nice job on what ever vehicle I have them work on and this time was no exception. Henry found the parts and then worked us into there schedule and got my wife back on the road right away. I have and will continue to recommend them to my friends and family.

Staff is always friendly and professional. We've used Dave Power Automotive for years and think they do an excellent job!

on another vehicle this time...Henry and Power team fixed a idle problem on my Ford F150 that was driving me insane. These guys know what they are doing and were 100% confident they'd figure it out. Best of all, a very fair, reasonable price too! I would highly recommend them...no games, no gimmicks! Thanks-Rich Knoll

The are the best at true servicing your boat - they fix things not just replacing parts until the problem goes away. Real mechanics, finding and fixing the problem. I have been taking my boat to them for the past six years after beening unhappy at a Portland boat shop. I highly recommend Dave Power Automotive and Marine.

Asked Jake to squeeze me in for an appointment for a de-winterize and was able to get out on the lake for the weekend. Great service and knowledgeable team. Thanks-Rich Knoll

From the very first time I dropped off my boat, I was very confident in the attention to detail. They know what they are doing. I have been very satisfied with my boat repairs. The staff is great and friendly and would highly recommend them.
