Client Testimonials

Not the cheapest in town, but the best! I have purchased 3 cars from George Gatti, and have all three serviced here, as well!
Lindsey B.
These guys are great. Not only did they do a fantastic job on my truck, they had it done ahead of schedule. David is very professional and good at explaining what needs to be done and how much it will cost. He goes the extra mile to make sure you get great service. I highly recommend these guys to everybody I talk to and I will definitely be back.
Robert C.
Very good service; they installed a new lower intake gasket on my Vortec 4.3 engined Blazer.
Greg L.
Have used Gatti Automotive twice, and I've appreciated their quick turnaround service. The 1st time was when I had a frontend collision and punctured my radiator. After my car was delivered at lunchtime that day, they had replaced the radiator by closing time the same day!

Comments: I've known Mr. Gatti for several years, and find him to be totally honest in his dealings with customers. For those who've checked other shops, it is rare to find a business with the honesty, dedication, and knowledge of Gatti Automotive. I've brought all my cars here, and I would not hesitate recommending this business to others.
Lindsey B.
These guys are fantastic and reasonably priced! Very knowledgeable and have saved me a lot of money!
Matthew S.
Service center you can trust. Friendly people, work is always top notch.
Dwight F.
Brought in my car with a broken AC that no one else could fix locally, and on a time crunch, as I was moving in a few weeks. They were able to get me in quickly, assess the problem, and get my car back in with the parts, and a lasting fix, even under the time pressure I put on them. Staff were friendly, and very thorough in explaining what the problem was, and what they would do to fix it. Price estimates were accurate, and there were no unexpected costs.
Melissa D.
The inspection was done. Work had to be done. We were told what was needed and given very reasonable prices.The service was friendly. We have had our vehicle serviced here before.The service was friendly and well done.That is why we will return.
Debbie J.
Trust, capable, responsible, honest, friendly, fair prices all come to mind for all the service and diagnostic work I have had performed at Automotive Radiator. They stand behind their work and always try their best to do the right thing. They have solved some very difficult to diagnose issues. They are Keeping my Jeep safe, roadworthy and functioning for several years now.
John R.
I took my car in for AC service after having problems for over a year that another garage could not locate. It was fixed right the first time and is now running properly. Staff was very friendly and took my car in the garage right on time. I am very pleased with the price of the repair which I did not think was excessive. Thanks to all at Automotive Radiator & AC for a good experience.

tips

According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.
The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)
Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.
Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.
Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.
A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.
Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.
Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.
Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.
Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road.
Use the A/C sparingly. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used.
Keep your windows closed. Wide-open windows, especially at highway speeds, increase aerodynamic drag and the result is up to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.
Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle.
Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph) rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.
Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption.
Keep your engine tuned. A fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent.
Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.
Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.
Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.
Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.
