“Greg always explains things so well and doesn't treat women like idiots (even though when it comes to cars I am one). Goes above and beyond to take care of you. Could not recommend him more.”
“Very great at what they do. They did a lot of major maintenance on my car ( 1992 Lexus SC) and for a very fair price. The best price compared to anyone around. Would definitely recommend them. Carlos is a solid guy”
“So it’s been exactly 1 week since I got my car back from the shop ?I had an electrical issue. (Wires)When I would press the start button to turn off my car, the engine wouldn’t shut off right away. It would take a few minutes. It would shake until it would force itself off… then my headlight would turn itself ON. (Yes, the lights were OFF) So b/c there was no other way for me to turn off, a button that was already off.. it would kill my battery… which would make me jump my car every other day when it wouldn’t turn off properly.Anyway… I had already made an appointment at a Ford dealership in San Leandro for an oil change.. then I included the issue above. I had my car there for a lil over a week, I spoke with him the weekend after drop off (monday), and the day of pick up (the next Monday). I couldn’t get a hold of him throughout the time my car was getting looked at.I called & spoke w/a few other ppl then I eventually spoke w/manager who told me he would get the guy assigned to me to reach out, which he never did. When I picked up the car, they said they couldn’t find anything.A day after, the car started doing the same thing, I dropped my car off after hours (b/c of work)Spoke to someone new, asked for someone different for the lack of communication, the new guy didn’t like that so much, so I took my car to the Ford dealership in Fremont,They ran another diagnostic (2), they too said they could not find anything, but that my oil was over filled & that I needed another one (drain out and put new), something about a lid under the hood needed fixing which would cost $1800, and I have bad tires in the front. They too had issues with communication, but it was kinda better then San Leandro..+ it was there a lil over a week b/c I had to wait 3 days for someone to run a diagnostic ?I honestly felt discouraged, and I didn’t know who to trust.Then I went ahead and took it to Managal Motors, because I remember having a good experience with my rotors getting replaced a few years ago.I called in, I dropped my car off the day of. I was told that they were going to run another diagnostic (3) and that it would take some time to find out the issue of the car. They called for questions about it before working on it, plus called in again to let me know what they were doing, and what he thought the issue might be, and then I got a text of a receipt & a call it was ready. I dropped it off before their shopped closed on a Tuesday, and got the car back on Monday (they had it fixed less then a week!)I haven’t had any issues with the engine turning off, or no spooky lights turning on by itself since ☺️☺️☺️☺️ & I was also told about my bad ties in front. (Which I did know about, I had my back tires changed, and I was working towards the front… anyway) I felt like they actually took the time out to find out what was wrong w/ my car, & kept in communication, and my car wasn’t even with them for a whole week.I’m not sorry for the long review, I’ve been really frustrated with the lost of money,time and lack of communication and trust. I’m so thankful that my car is back up n running.? THANK YOU MANGALE MOTORS!!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!Ps. I had some burnt wires (from a car accident) that needed to be replaced, and the total cost was $537.69Which includes a diagnostic, parts, & labor.”

Oil Change
“Everything was great. The two men who changed my oil and flushed my radiator were very polite and friendly. I felt respected and everything was done quickly. Then even cleaned my windshield. Thank you, Oil Changers.”
“I been bringing personal and work vehicles to Sam for years now. from simple oil changes and breaks to transmission swaps.
He will personally view and work on each vehicle and will communicate with you along the way if its complicated repair.
He's honest and fast. I believe he's expanding now and offering tire services.
You won't go wrong with SMC.”
“I have been bringing different cars here for many years. I started out with them when they were by the Oakland airport because I lived in Oakland. I still live in Oakland and yet I drive to Hayward because I trust Romeo and his team more than any other mechanic I've ever had. They are extremely reliable, reasonable, upfront, friendly, and make you feel like you are getting good value for your money. They never try to push things on you that you might not need. They are very accommodating in terms of labor costs and always try to get you the cheapest price possible. The other thing is how fast they do the work. Rarely have I had to leave my car longer than a day. I will continue to use Romeo and North American Motors to take care of whatever car I have and I recommend that if anybody needs a really good mechanic, this is the place to go!”
“I’ve been here a few times! They do a very good job on my car and I appreciate them for being kind and very helpful!Services: A/C installation & repair”
“Excellent - EXCELLENT 5 Star service. Owner & his crew are dedicated mechanics that are HONEST, TRUSTWORTHY & FAIR... I REPEAT:
Honest, Trustworthy & Fair when you bring your vehicle seeking services.
Definitely a hidden gem of a mechanic in the area.”
“Polite courteous and professional they did the job right and had everything needed to complete the job at hand correctly and quickly I highly recommend this location over others in the same area.”
“I was looking for ASE certified location to fix my German car. This guy has been in business over 15 years so I was confident he will fix my car perfect. He gave me a great price and great service.”
“First time doing oil change in this place after the first one declining doing it for conventional oil. My battery was dead after finishing the oil change. They jumped the battery without charging me.
Excellent job, professional and very friendly,”
“Anthony was very cool got to change my oil & was very professional ask to check my L & R signal reassured me that all was well . no problems to check back in in a few always look at check engine light & dashboard to make sure & the gentleman who escorted me in promply was calm, cool & collective. I am looking good. Thanks”
“I have been coming here for car maintenance for my car (2011 crv) since feb 2022.
When I bought my car used and it needed new control arms, shocks and brake rotors, Mr Gurindar laid down the costs with full transparency and all my research on part brands , pricing and "need to repair" came out to be in line of what he quoted me.
He also honestly declined to replacing engine belt that looked old to my untrained eye (but it was in good working condition). He goes extra mile and puts panel clips in the missing areas .
My friends come from south bay to GBR auto repairs for their oil changes and other maintenance since he provides value and honesty which is hard to find now days.
Happy customer”

“I serviced my car today at Autowise. I am very pleased with the extra-ordinary customer service. Mike and Lori are professional and kind. The service was done on time and definitely better prices than the dealership's. I always like supporting family owned and small businesses. I highly recommend that you try Autowise, you won't regret it. Thank you”
