Community Auto Center

What a pleasure to work with Kham, and to have found my trusted mechanic for my 2006 Honda Civic! I had over $8k worth of work quoted by the dealership, and fortunately I shopped around and Community Auto Center was able to deliver it all at a fraction of the price. As you see below, I got the works. Also they threw in a cool keychain and a free battery for my remote. I received photos all along the way. Superb communication!

This review is long overdue, but it’s important to share my experience with Community Auto Center in Oakland. My daughter’s car had an issue, and I took it there for a diagnostic. After looking at it, they quoted me close to $3,000 for the repair. I’ve brought several cars from my family here before and had trusted them, but this visit made me seriously question whether this shop is as honest as I thought. The mechanic told me that they had to call the Honda dealer’s parts department to get the specific part because it couldn’t be found elsewhere, and that he got the quote directly from the dealer. He also told me that labor would be more expensive if I went to the dealer instead of having him do the work. After paying for the diagnostic, I called the Honda dealership myself to confirm,

This is the BEST shop in the bay area!! Have been here so many times, Kham and his crew have so much knowledge and skill I wouldn’t trust my family driving in a car they didn’t fix! There is no greater feeling than knowing you are in good hands, getting a good deal and not getting ripped off! Best work ethic, strong morals and overall a staple in our community, THANK YOU COMMUNITY AUTO YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!

These guys deserve every good review they have. Took my car in for a drive belt change and some new brakes, and they gave me a fair price. They also gave me a heads up on future repairs needed at no cost. Great communication with pictures of each thing as they fixed it, and great explanation of what was wrong and why. The most remarkable thing was what happened after, though. Two days later, my fiancé got into an accident with the vehicle, completely taking out the driver side light, fender, bumper, and hood. Not only did they make room for me in my time of need, but they also managed to do the job for way below the range of their initial estimate. It turned out to be 300 dollars cheaper than their lowest range estimate. They could have easily marked up those parts and made an extra 300,

I cannot say enough about Tane and the entire experience at Community Auto. I've been going there for years, and would not go anywhere else. I trust the service and care there. Tane, the owner and the other mechanics are excellent, communicative, friendly and wonderful. The prices are very reasonable, always fair, and I have full faith in their work. I tend to drive my vehicles into the ground, real "work horses", and Community Auto keeps me safe on the road!
