Dave Power Automotive & Marine

Went to Dave Power the first time, and he had either in stock or ordered the items I needed right away. What a pleasant surprise for me to be able to get what I wanted to fix my jet skis. Thank you, Dave, and your other employees for always taking my calls with patients and kindness. I'm excited about the improvements my brother and I are doing. Couldn't have done it without Dave Power and his ability to get what I needed. Thanks Vince

Now I get why customers love this shop! Dave Power, provides peace of mind that you're in good hands, they value their customers AND know what they're doing!

After trying a few other auto shops in Salem, I'm glad we found Dave Power. They recently did an oil change on my older SUV and changed the air filter. They were professional over the phone when scheduling, provide reasonable rates and quality service and care! They even reached out to us the day after our first appointment to check if everything was okay! That shouldn't be rare, but it is. I'm actually looking forward to bringing my car back for some diagnostics I've been putting off, now that we've found an auto shop we know we can trust operates with professionalism and integrity! Thanks guys!

Great work and great service! I took my Hyundai Elantra in and they did a great unexpected service!

I first took my Hyundai in at “Gonzalez Auto Repair” on 12th Street. He told me he can fix it, but he charged me $1000 and never fixed the problem. I took my car away and never went back to him or near his auto repair shop. I took my Hyundai to Dave’s auto and got charged half of what I paid to “Gonzalez auto mechanic.”

I am so thankful Dave Power Automotive Everything you do people see to appreciate it. Keep up the great work!

They did great on diagnosing and fixing my muscle car. They are very efficient and thorough. It is nice to have a place I can trust with my unique car.

Over the past several weeks I’ve had my 2011 Suburban come in to figure out a code issue with my car and “third times a charm” it was figured out. :) I’m quite thankful these patient gentlemen were able to do so much for me and fix my constant issue. Thank you very much.

Dave Power deserves every single 5-star review they have. They are honest, reasonably priced, do great work on my RAV4, and really go above and beyond to provide excellent customer service. Highly recommend!

Very pleased. There assessment allowed me to make a decision regarding repairing or purchasing a new vehicle. The estimate was true and no additional cost! I found staff to be friendly and helpful with each conversation.

Customer service was amazing! I’ve never used this shop before and I needed my wiper motor replaced. It got 4.9 starts so I called them. The guy on the phone was very nice and helpful. He told me to bring it in the next day and they would work me in! I did just that and they ordered the part and got me on my way! Even cleaned my battery connections and replaced a little fuse that needed replaced. So nice! I really appreciate the great service and work from the first call and impression on the phone to getting my wiper motor replaced the next day. Great Job!

From the start Dave power did great scheduling and keeping in touch through the whole process! They did a great job I would take all my trucks there along with refer anyone that needs something done to them great company great people!

I’ve taken my vehicle to Dave Power Automotive & Marine for several years now. They are upfront and honest, thorough in maintenance and repairs. I feel at ease with Dave, Henry, Arley and crew, as I trust they are doing their best every time.

Brought in my '94 Mazda pickup I'd recently gotten for some troubleshooting. Spending an hour on it, 3 issues needing attention were quickly found saving me tons of time trying to figure it out myself. Great customer service.

I got a lemon from a dealer and ended up bringing it here. Henry worked with me on it, he was very friendly and welcoming, and was incredibly upfront and honest throughout the process. He actually ended up helping me talk to the dealer and I ended up getting an offer on a different car. I brought that car right back to Dave Power to have it checked over before accepting. They said the car checked out and it's been fantastic ever since! Can't recommend them enough!

Service was quick and efficient. I was treated with respect, which does not always happen for women, at repair shops. Highly recommend.

We have a car that we can take somewhere again thanks to Dave Power and his technicians. The car was basically worthless to us because it would not start usually when we needed it the most! Who would guess it was a seat belt module that was causing the battery to run down? The GMC dealer was not interested in fixing it and Wayne Parker auto electric got angry at me because of their incompetence! Thanks to Dave and crew we have a usable car again!

We came into Salem to visit my grandson who is attending Willamette University. He was having car trouble! We did not know anybody and Dave’s friend, Jesse, referred us to Dave’s! We were so impressed with their friendliness and their willingness to check Elijah’s car out! They repaired it immediately.Thank you all for excellent service! We highly recommend Dave’s for your automotive needs! Thanks again!

I have had an issue w/ my seat for almost a year. Went to the dealership and was quoted almost $2,000 and then took my car here and within the same day picked it up and paid almost 1/10th of the price. Very progressional and let me know how to avoid the issue in the future.

They explained the situation and the most likely cost up front. They did exactly what they said and it fixed the problem. It was even a little cheaper than the cost they quoted up front. We will return if we encounter car problems in the future. Thank you Dave Powers!

Excellent service. They trouble shot my electrical problem and stuck with it until they figured it out. Then, they charged me a fair price. I’ll be back if I need something.

Staff were attentive and easy to get along with. Service was swift, and scheduling was easy. I had 5 days wait to get in and work (on an I/O boat) was finished the same day. Cost seemed to me about right for the work. I would come here again if I wanted more repairs - and I’m an hour and a half away.

These guys are amazing! As the new first time owner of an old boat, they performed an overall assessment and safety check that helped to put my mind at ease. Highly recommend and will be back to have them prep for winter storage.
