Very knowledgeable, fair price, great job.

The local GM dealer quoted me 7500 to fix my truck. Clay & his crew fixed my truck for 2600. I highly recommend the second your vehicle goes out of warranty bring it to Dirks Auto for service.

Great job on my oil change and gave me a reasonable quote for a rear camera and monitor for the future.


Aug 06, 2024

Great experience at this establishment. Very straight forward and honest, if you don't want you car fixed don't ask Dirk what's wrong. Did exactly what they said the way they said and less time than expected. I won't take my car anywhere else. Thank you!!


Aug 06, 2024

Honest, reliable, and reasonable. Will definitely use them again.


Aug 06, 2024

I trust him, and what he says. I will never take my vehicles any where else. Clay is knowledgeable and reasonable. 10/10

The only shop I’ll bring my vehicles to. Clay is awesome and will explain everything in depth of what you actually need with zero fluff. Easy to schedule an appointment, great communication and honest work gets five stars in my book all day long. Alignment was done perfectly and cheaper than any generic tire shop around. Awesome shop

Dirk’s Auto Clinic has been servicing my vehicles for years and I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else. Clay and his team have always been honest and professional, offering top notch service. I have recommended this company to many and will continue to do so as I am always very happy with their excellent service. The best!

I changed from the Kia dealer to Dirk's and have not been disappointed. Clay is fair and straight with you. If it is not time for a specific job but will be in the near future, he will tell you. I usually wait for the work to be done. Was out of there just under an hour for oil change, tire rotation, and brake check.

We got caught in Crystal River, and the water pump blew on the truck. It was Friday afternoon, we left it. On Monday, Clay started on it first thing. He did a great job at exactly the price he quoted. 🙂


May 06, 2024

Clay and his team always takes pride in their work while delivery great prices. Would highly suggest them to anyone!

Great service!!

Squeezed me in to tight schedule to fix my only transportation. Job finished fast and for a fair price.

Submitting for friend - T. Motola I was directed to Dirks Auto Service in Crystal River following a disappointing experience with my older (2001) Corvette elsewhere. Upon arrival, I found solace in the sight of other vintage Corvettes. "All these people can't be mistaken," I thought. Clay promptly attended to me when I arrived for my 8am appointment. He was forthright in explaining that my issue might involve multiple layers and advised me to anticipate at least 2 or more hours of work. Later in the day, as promised, he phoned to outline my car's window issue. He also clarified that he had done his best considering the subpar parts and service I had previously received at another establishment. I truly valued Clay's expertise and honesty. As an older woman, trust is paramount to me. I have full confidence in returning to Dirks Auto Service for future work and wholeheartedly recommend it to others seeking top-notch service! It was a pleasure to experience such professionalism and care for both my car and myself.

I can always count on Dirk's to diagnose and fix any problem once and for all. Not the cheapest repair shop in town but without a doubt the most reliable.


Mar 07, 2024

Owner was very rude. Wanted half the money up front to put a starter and cable in. Couldn’t guarantee it would start after he did and work. He had me in tears

Took our 2015 chevy equinox because the engine was shaking. Clay got it fixed the next day at a super reasonable price! Highly recommend this place!!


Feb 07, 2024

Very nice and done a great job on my pickup


Feb 07, 2024

Was just on the phone with him and was nothing but rude! Asked about an "already diagnosed" axle repair quote and was told he needed to dismantle the axle first to give me a quote an a ring and pinion replacement. Lol


Feb 07, 2024

We had some car trouble while on vacation in Crystal River and the owner Clay fit us in and got us back on the road within an hour. Amazing service and super helpful. Would definitely take my car there again. Pricing seemed very fair and you can tell that Clay cares about the local community.


Feb 07, 2024

We have used Dirk's twice this year for repairs needed on our 2005 Ford F-150 pickup. Clay has been nothing but professional and the work was performed in a very timely manner. The cost was very reasonable. We will continue to use Dirk's whenever we have ANY issues with anyone of our vehicles.


Feb 07, 2024

Wet this morning to drop off my car. The owner was really rude. Doesn't know how to talk to people.


Feb 07, 2024
