Consider them for your auto needs

Deane’s is a family-owned business passionate about all things automotive & how they help their community. Barbara is also my cousin. My Dad had his work truck(s) cared for my Deane’s & we continue to bring our family cars there – not just b/c they’re family, but b/c we know it’ll be done and done right. That’s why I used the word “cared” – they care about their customers & the trust we put in them – especially with something we sit in that moves at high speeds.  Please consider them for your auto needs & help support a great small business in Tolland!

A++ service!

Deane’s just serviced my 18 year old f250 farm truck and it’s like a new truck! Overhauled back breaks, rotors, e brakes etc. Bob is very thorough in his inspection and broke down critical needs vs. repairs that could wait. The work was done quickly, I received convenient texted photos and explanation of the issues and detailed quotes before the work was started. They even detailed the truck inside and out before I picked it up which was an unexpected bonus. A++ service! – Karen White Verosky

Barbara and Bob took great care of me and my truck

I recently purchased a used vehicle knowing it needed some work (which turned into a lot of work). I couldn’t decide where to take it as I had not been happy at several of the area garages over the last few years. I decided to try Deane’s, and couldn’t be happier that I did. Barbara and Bob took great care of me and my truck, telling me what needed to be done now and what I can hold off doing. I found them to be very friendly, operate a clean facility, showed great knowledge in repairing the truck, and Bob even took the time to show me the parts he had to replace (who knew Alternators would crack like that?!). I have absolutely no hesitation in saying this is the place people would be taking their vehicles and will be a continued customer.

Deane’s Auto & Truck Repair is amazing! Highly recommend!

I was traveling 6+ hours to Philadelphia and was 2.5 hours into the trip when I was forced to pull over when I noticed smoke billowing out of the back of my truck. I drove to the nearest exit (Exit 67 on I-84) and parked in a Burger King parking lot, angrily scrolling through Google to find a local garage where I could bring my F250. I called Deane’s Auto & Truck Repair because it was the closest and I hoped I could get in to be seen. Bob Deane answered the phone. I explained my situation and told him I felt safe driving the truck to the shop and he told me he could get me in as soon as I arrived.

I sat in the waiting area and chatted with Barbara while Bob diagnosed the issue; she was extremely nice to speak with. Bob checked in every hour to let me know how it was going and what he thought the issue might be. After a test drive, he determined the probable cause and talked through my available options. They told me that they would make sure to get me where I was going one way or the other and they both seemed genuinely concerned making sure I was taken care off.

We agreed on a plan that and I left the shop grateful that I’d been fortunate enough (given the circumstances) to break down in Bob and Barbara’s area. I can’t think of any time before that I’ve ever been treated so respectfully, professionally and kindly (let alone by a repair shop) and can’t thank Bob and Barbara enough.

Nobody ever wants to be in a situation where they are broken down, hundreds of miles away from home and at the mercy of an unscrupulous mechanic. I can tell you from experience that Bob and Barbara were a genuine pleasure to work and this experience will stay with me for a long time.

Highly recommend (again)!
