We have used Speedy Tune before for brakes and general mechanic needs in the past. This week our 2014 Subaru Crosstrek was making some odd engine noises so we took it in for a diagnostic. Joey was unfortunately the bearer of bad news regarding the transmission but he directed me to Subaru for potential coverage under an extended drivetrain warranty which ended up applying. We were so grateful for his honesty and efficiency - really fair rate for the diagnostics and saved us a lot of money. Would recommend!

Wow, I have found my new mechanic. I was at Valvoline which is just in front of Speedy Tune & Brake, having a battery replaced. There was an issue that had to be done by a mechanic so Valvoline told me to have it done there. Joseph happened to come over and looked at my battery issue. He said he would try to fit me in. by the time I drove over there, the battery was not working. Joseph said he would get it done right away instead of waiting a couple hours or coming back next day. He squeezed me in which was so nice. When i went to pay him when all done, he refused and said it wasn't worth writing up an invoice. Wow, i was speechless! Joseph went above and beyond what i expected. Now that's service! Thank you, Joseph, you saved the day!

This shop is a hidden gem in Encinitas. My cat broke down en route to an appointment in San Diego. As I was from out of town, the tow truck driver recommended them. It is a family owned business--father and son working there. They were extremely professional. What I liked was that when they diagnosed the problem, they thoroughly explained it to me and gave me the proposed solutions. I have family in the area who happened to live on the route that the owner was taking that night so he was kind enough to take me to my relatives' house. Talk about service. Other customers in the waiting area spoke highly of their experiences here too. I would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family. My car was repaired in the time promised and it's working very well.

Dave is the man when it comes to alignments. I've owned my 2000 Toyota 4Runner for 5+years and had it aligned 3 times after replacing various suspension joints/bushings and it never drove straight. Dave knocked it out of the park. The car is tracking straight better than it ever has. Thank you!Services: Steering & suspension repair

This place is the best! Honest, fast, and professional. I don't know much about cars and was very nervous about having a major repair done. I couldn't have had a better experience and prices are very fair!

Great company. Joey took care of me without any significant time restraints or pressure. I got the referral from my roommate who he helps regularly his shop’s care is detail oriented. I highly recommend them.

This place was recommended by a friend. Had a small fluid leak (not engine oil) that showed up as a few small black drops on the home garage floor. They said it's an easy fix but insisted on an oil and filter change although it was not time yet. Said they did a patrial fix, needed parts and to come back next day. The fix did not work and now there were also drops of new lube oil on the garage floor. Came back in a day or two. They said its all done and should be ok. It was not ok - the leak went on. Gave up on them and went elsewhere where I was told that wrong plug and seal were used for the lube drain. Conclusion: Shoddy workmanship and dishonest staff. Will never go back nor would recommend to anyone.

These guys are at the highest level of service and honesty. Every time I've gone in they've been completely upfront and honest about what could be done but doesn't need to be done right now and have also gone above and beyond to provide service even driving me back to my house. Honest, reliable, fast, and a top-notch business in Encinitas that we should all support.

Best service I had in ages, I feel like every other mechanic or car shop I go to seems to overcharge, horrible service, or miss leading information but this place right here will make you feel right at home even if you have to spend a good amount they will literally try there best possible to make it affordable as they can, Joey is a A1 manager and honestly needs more recognition, very chill and makes u feel like he's been your best friend for ages ! HIGHLY recommend you give it a try and let me know yourself because even tho I'm just any other yelper I really would love to help someone else out who's in need of a A1 mechanic, Welcome Home !

Worst mechanic ever a complete scam. They changed the front struts and now it makes more noise than when I left it. Results that it was a 19 years old kid who had to fix it because of the high demand of cars they had that they. They charged me over 1K and They over priced the auto parts. What’s the answer of the manager when I come back? “Yo have to pay again to fix it” they charged me 150 extra in labor because they forgot to change the struts mounts. Unbelievable. The car still makes noise so I feel very insecure driving it. Never again! If you have a trusted mechanic please drop you comment here. Thanks.

I take my cars here from time to time. Joey & his father are good guys. They're super nice & do their very best to help find you the most affordable way to repair your vehicle. Over the years they have repaired my Toyota 4-Runner & RAV4, Acura TL, Mazda 3 and Mercedes GLC 300. I definitely trust them 100% and highly recommend them.
