I've been looking for a good car repair shop for some time. This shop is amazing! My wife took her car in to remove a nail from her tire that the Kia dealer said she had. They checked all 4 tires but could not find a nail. They didn't charge her for their time! I took my car to them yesterday to check wheel alignment. All 4 wheels were in alignment. They didn't charge me for their time. Even though I insisted! This shop has excellent reviews, which is why I chose them. I have found my car repair shop!

Horrible Outrageous prices on smog other places are charging almost half of what this dude is charging really proud of his service I guess. The guy can barely hear you practically have to yell at him when talking to him would not recommend this place for a smog at least.

I took my car in because it failed smog, they did a pre-test free of charge and gave me some suggestions on getting the ODBII to reset. They got it done pretty fast even though they were pretty busy.

I’ve taken two cars to this shop and unfortunately had negative experiences both times. The first time, I brought my car in for an oil leak and some other repairs. They fixed the oil leak, and that part of the job was done well. However, immediately after getting the car back, I experienced a massive brake fluid leak. My brake line had busted. Since the car was older, I gave them the benefit of the doubt and chalked it up to bad timing. I ended up fixing the brake lines myself. Months later, I decided to give them another chance with a different vehicle. This time I paid them to replace the brakes and rotors (I supplied those parts). The parking brake shoes were not replaced because they didn’t need to be. When I got the car back, I discovered the parking brake hadn’t been adjusted at al

Honesty that to me is what is important. If repairs are necessary believe them. If repairs are not nessary they will tell. Trust and quality of work is what they are good for they deserve 10 stars. Wouldn't take my car to any other auto service
