Traveling from out of state and had a coolant leak that needed to be assessed for needed repairs. Claudio looked at it quickly and made a good assesment of issue for me at no cost! The vehicle was reliable (just a slow gasket leak) for travel and could be fixed once I returned home. Appreciate his professionalism and honesty.???

we've had the pleasure of knowing and working with Bruce for over a decade before relocating out-of-state and since moving, all we can ever say is why can't we find our LMAC out here.
Bruce has gone out of his way to make sure our family vehicles were safe and functioning. listening to him explain needed repairs and options, I learned how to do things right.
now, we just take our cars to the dealer. it costs a lot more but at least we know we'll find the same level of service and dedication that we appreciated in Bruce.
this review is long overdue....

Negative Stars....Don't waste your time or money here. Bruce will talk all the good talk but not walk it. If you say his employees don't do a good job, Bruce will start getting aggressive towards you. You will try to call and talk to him to work with one another and he will just hang up. Not good business. Never excepts faults as a business owner. His auto care has put used/refurbished drive axels on my car after paying for new ones through a warranty company. They were after market non OEM parts. I had them redo the work and still trash. I purchased control arms to be replaced and his mechanic tightened them too tight and now the ball joints are busted and my car is undrivable. Bruce told me there is something else wrong with my car but couldn't tell me what. It was his own company's work that was the problem. Bruce does not care about his customers or quality work. I don't believe he knows what he's doing. Doesn't check on the quality work his guys are doing. I have a kid and family and now I can't drive my car I paid thousands to be fixed by them. Total trash auto repair place. Picture and video of lower control arm they just replaced a few months ago.

I went with my daughter to get her electrical system fixed. At first they told us that it would be no problem and the cost was some thing very reasonable. However after he gave us an exuberant price and expected us to just pay this with no further reasoning. We even went through a government program that Helps you with these types of issues and they knew that we were going through this government program and they basically told us that since we are going through that government program they will not do our car because the government program never pays. That is a flagrant lie. This business kept my daughters car for 4 weeks and said and did nothing! I called and called and we kept getting jerked around! This place is the WORST PLACE TO TAKE YOUR CAR FOR REPAIR!!!!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting La Mesa Auto Care in need of a smog test. Although I didn’t have an appointment, they were able to work me in and get the test done quickly. Great overall experience, I will definitely recommend them to others and consider other services they offer in the future.

If you ask me do not come here for auto repair. I took my car to O'Reilly to get an engine scan before taking it in to show the shop what needs to be done so I don't have to pay for a full diagnosis. Took the car in show them the code, go in the office area and get the quote which was $250 so I'm thinking okay not bad since they already know the problem without having to do anything. Next week I get a call saying the new quote is over $500?! Very confusing how it went up that much and they only fixed the one scanner code problem which I already brought to them.. best part is I go in to pick up my car and then they tell me it's over $600, and they charged me $30 for A GALLON of gas to drive it around the block for a test drive. I'm in complete shock this place is truly unbelievable. I sent the invoice to a family friend who is a former auto repair technician and he even said they charge double of what is normally charged. Very upset I lost all that money to learn my lesson not to go here so don't make the same mistake!!!

Completely wasted my time.. wouldn't do some work without me committing to a whole bunch of other work. Didn't bother to tell me until after I had dropped my car off too so I had to come all the way back and get it.. literally wanted me to pay for every little thing wrong with my car even down to the power windows not working..what a joke.
