Mode Automotive Repair
Ryan provided great service repairing my car's clutch master/slave cylinder assembly. He is friendly and honest. He took time to explain the problem with my car. I will definitely take my car back for other services when the time arises. If you need a maintenance or repair service, you will be greatly satisfied with Ryan's service.

I've been driving for over 20yrs and one of the hardest things has been finding a mechanic I can trust. I've been to several places around the county & often felt like I was being taken advantage of because of my lack of mechanical knowledge.
So I'm extremely happy to have found Ryan Mode; he is great at what he does & is a genuinely nice guy. I like the fact that he takes the time to explain in plain English what needs to be done & why & is very fair with his prices.Flag ThisLike0 -

Ryan Mode is an excellent, top notch mechanic. He has addressed every issue I have had with my Lexus. The price is always great and less than I expected. The repairs are done in a timely manner. I'm thankful to have found Mode Automotive for all my car repair needs. Keep up the great work!

Car repair and maintenance used to be like going to the dentist or paying taxes --- painful and expensive --- until I found Mode Automotive! Now the experience is one I look forward to. Ryan is a top shelf mechanic who educates his customers. He is honest, sincere, and remarkably well priced.

Ryan with Mode Automotive, is the best mechanic you will find. He did a major service job on our mercedes and our car has never run better. Ryan pays attention to detail, is most knowlegable, and his customer care is what set's him apart from the rest. This is the 3rd car we have had serviced at Mode Automotive and a 5 star rating is not high enough. Ryan is reliable, professional, courteous, and has the best prices for the highest quality repairs. Can't recommend him enough to anyone with a car.

When I took my car in to get an oil change, Ryan was very genuine and cared about taking good care of my car and made sure that I was being taken care of as well. After changing the oil, he made some recommendations and a heads up of what my car would need in the near future. It was super helpful to know what my car will need in the future. Ryan does a great job with my car and I know that I can trust him!
