One-on-One discussions with the mechanics Read What Our Customers Are Saying About Us “Ken Cook and his staff have always provided me fair prices and courteous service. It started with a Saturday service need when no one else would look at my car until Monday 4 years ago. Whenever I have needed automotive service Ken has been a resource I can depend upon.” - Mike H. Grass Valley, CA “I have had an F150 and a Toyota Sienna serviced and repaired at Automotive City for the past 5 plus years by Ken and his staff. The work was explained, documented, and performed in a very professional manner. When my daughter visiting from out of the area had her transmission blow up, Ken expedited getting and installing a rebuilt one. When this transmission failed 10 months later when she was back home in Fresno, Ken was very helpful in making sure that the warranty was honored. I highly recommend Automotive City for auto repairs in Grass Valley.” - Curtis M, Nevada City We want your experience with us to be a positive one, and our courteous, knowledgeable mechanics will stop at nothing to get you back out on the road as quickly as possible.
