Hayden Independent Auto Service isn't a chain. It's Darren — a mechanic Hayden drivers describe as skilled, honest, and worth his weight in gold. Most customers found the shop the old-fashioned way: a friend told them Darren would shoot them straight.
People bring every make here — Honda, Toyota, Subaru, Ford, Chevy — and keep coming back because the work is done right, the price is fair, and they trust the answer they get.
There are so many great things I can say about Darren — not only is he an extremely skilled and knowledgeable mechanic, but he is an exceptional, decent and honorable person whom I trust with my most vital possession, my car.
Darren is always honest and helpful with all my vehicles. Best mechanic in the area hands down! I would recommend this place to anyone that wants an honest mechanic with kind service. 10 stars all the way.
