My family and I were visiting Lyons from CA. Long story short- the “check engine “ light came on after hitting a concrete mass under the car. Gateway was recommended . They checked the car out that day, charged me nothing and sure enough the car was fine all the way back to CA. We are not car people and needed some reassurance that we were safe to drive! The Gateway guys were extremely helpful! Thx🙏 Grateful in CA

I have brought multiple vehicle to this shop and always receive excellent service and advice from the guys at this shop. They are a local small business with a small but skilled crew. If you want a high end waiting room, go elsewhere. If you want a quality repair for a more than fair price, go see the guys at Gateway Automotive.

I’m a stickler on customer service, Frank and his team are amazing!! I’ve was going to another mechanic with one of my trucks, and they really didn’t take the interest in solving the problem with my truck. I went to Gateway and they new what they were dealing with. They were upfront about everything. They solved the issue and earned my trust. I’ve taken my other truck there with full confidence! As a business owner, integrity is everything. Gateway is the only mechanic I will ever trust! Much appreciated Frank! Jeff

❤️❤️❤️ OCTOBER 19, 2025 UPDATE ❤️❤️❤️ After all of my phone calls to him for car advice and no matter how annoying I can be, Frank has never once lost his patience with me. Frank holds high standards of service, knowledge and hard work and he insists on the same for his employees. His prices are fair, he's honest and his education is extremely impressive. After I totaled my car frank helped me choose one without hesitation (probably because I kept bringing my choices to him only to have him say NO YO 😂😂). After more than a decade of trusting my safety with Gateway and thanks to Franks help ... Looks like I'll be a loyal customer forEVER 😜 The shop is open Mon thru Fri and his prices remain very fair. END UPDATE For years I have been able to rely on and trust the staff of Gateway Automotive. Today when my car died outside of the library I called the shop and Ryan assured me that if I towed it over they would take care of it so I did. I was immediately greeted by the staff and Ryan went straight to work. The problem was diagnosed and repaired in less than 2 hours. He was direct, accurate and incredibly helpful. I am grateful for his hard work. The entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I ALWAYS recommend this shop for the fact that they've never been wrong and have always been honest. Many times I've sent my friends to Gateway for second opinions and nearly every time their diagnosis was on point and way more affordable. It's hard to find an honest mechanic in this town... Gateway fills that need 😀

I have been going to Frank for years now. I can honestly say he's the BEST mechanic you will EVER find!!! He's honest and trustworthy, and he gets the job done fast. I promise you YOU won't be disappointed! I've lived different towns over the years, but when I need to get my car fixed, I'll drive out of my way to just go to him! Give Gateway Automotive a try!!!

Met with Joe S., who was very friendly and down to earth, did not feel pressured at all to buy, my credit isn’t great, at…all, and they (Joe & Josh) were able to get me approved for an awesome little Honda Fit! It’s so cute. Joe even assisted with helping me drop off my car rental. Very helpful folks! Thank you guys!
