Empire Auto Repair Specialists

In 2019 Taghon’s Garage was purchased by Dave’s Garage. Dave’s Garage was founded in 1995 in Traverse City. We bring over 100 years combined experience to our Empire auto repair garage.

Our Empire garage serves customers in Leelanau and Benzie counties with the same friendly service and expertise as Taghon’s provided over 3 generations.

Both our Traverse City and Empire auto repair garages have talented ASE Certified Master Technicians providing expert automotive repair. We are experienced classic cars, exotic vehicles, foreign and domestic automobiles. Our techs take advantage of all latest training opportunities and scan tool technologies, assuring that they are well versed in the complex language your vehicle is speaking.

We provide a clean and comfortable lobby should you choose to wait for your car. We stock it with great reading material and wireless internet and beverages are available upon request. We want you to feel at home.
