Very honest too I have recommended some of my senior friends to them because I know they will make sure their vehicle is in good running order snd maintenance is up to date.

Everyone at Caliber go above and beyond to make sure seniors get the same quality service. Won’t go anywhere else.I highly recommend them.”

“Big thank you to the dyno shop and ez auto registration! Got everything taken care of with my new car in under 10 minutes, still helped me even though they were about to close, great pricing and customer service as well! Only place I’ll go in San Diego when it comes to car registration and avoiding the long lines at the DMV. Thank you!”
“This shop is one of the good ones. Friendly, knowledgable, and most importantly, I feel treated fairly. No one likes paying for auto repairs, but I always feel slightly better about it after interacting with their awesome staff.”
“This is my new go to auto mechanic. They had my truck up and running in no time. Very friendly staff. Makes you feel like family. Great honest prices no sneaky side charges. Love this place and the employees that work there. I only wish I could give 100 stars”

“Poway Auto Repair is a gem. They took such great care of me when I had an Engine Management System Problem error pop up on my van's dashboard. The whole team there is knowledgeable, helpful, and diagnosed the problem for me and fixed it the same day. Poway Auto Repair made sure I knew what was happening and gave me all the possible options and didn't overcharge or take advantage of me but went out of their way to help me. I cannot recommend them more highly. They will be our new go-to auto repair shop!”

“First and foremost, I would like to say thank you to the guys at Johns Automotive Care in El Cajon. I no longer live in San Diego, but my kids live in San Diego with their mother. My son called me up and said that he’s had a problem with his vehicle. I told him to call Johns Automotive Care, he did and Brian and the crew and El Cajon took care of him and gave him a great deal on getting his car fixed. If anybody out there is looking for a place to get a fair price in accurate repairs give them a call in El Cajon Johns Automotive Care. Once again, thank you, Brian and Johns Automotive Care of El Cajon.”
“Just picked up my car and very satisfied with the service provided. Shane and Mike went above and beyond. I brought my car in needing breaks badly and when the parts took additional time they took care of a couple other misc items. I appreciate the honesty and knowing I was getting what I paid for. Won’t be taking my car anywhere else from now on.”
“If you have the opportunity to abandon the dealership service model, Clifton Mercedes is the place you need to experience for critical maintenance planning and repair work. They are the consummate professionals, consistently spot on in time and cost estimations, most importantly, this team is honest. Thank you guys for the great work!”
“A great traditional transmission shop. Family owned with a long history. My service came in as estimated and in the time allotted. Their reputation is well deserved.”
“I had a series of repairs done at Import Auto Service recently, and I can't praise Sean and Tim enough. Their expertise and customer care were exceptional. They explained everything clearly, kept me updated throughout, and ensured each repair was done meticulously. Their friendly approach and dedication make them my go-to for any future auto needs. Highly recommend!”
“Sam is the nicest and most honest mechanic I've ever met. The shop is clean and smells great. He did an excellent job explaining what my car needed, breaking it down in a way I could really understand. If you're looking for a trustworthy mechanic in El Cajon, he's your guy.”
“Excellent service! Called in the morning and they said just bring it in. Dropped off my VW CC at noon and brakes, trans service and oil change done by 4. Didn't try to upsell anything or come up with "extra" charges. I'll definitely be bringing my other vehicles to Volkers!”

“Called Sharpe Automotive this morning, hoping to get an oil change done on a Friday before Labor Day weekend. Dean was able to fit the job in today’s schedule as long as I could bring it in sooner than later. Wifey followed in a separate car while I dropped off and we would return in a few hours.
Received text updates when the job was in process and after the vehicle was ready this afternoon. Dean reviewed the completed services along with recommended service items from normal use (tires) and preventative items to consider from the OEM maintenance schedule (spark plugs, serpentine belt) for budgeting ahead.
We were delighted to get the overdue oil change done on the same day and appreciate the explanation on upcoming maintenance costs. Thank you to the team at Sharpe Auto! Have an excellent weekend.”
“Outstanding service Jayson Is one of the best mechanics around I’ve known him for a long time and he’s always taken care of my vehicles if you want the best come to Elite.”
“The deserve 5 stars. I am so grateful to Advanced Auto, twice I’ve taken my LB7 & service was great. Ian (Owner) was very helpful & his son Joseph was really awesome with explaining everything. I can honestly recommend anyone to this shop & have no back thoughts about it. They’ve got me locked down”
“Claudio is such an amazing person. I have been taking my car to him since 2 years. I have always gotten an honest inspection on the car. He won’t charge me for inspection.
He would never ask me to get anything done that isn’t necessary. As a young woman, I always feel people would rip me off but I never have to give it a second thought with Claudio.
He is a very honest, hardworking person! I have a 2015 car but with his expertise, it has never given me any trouble!!
I would 10/10 recommend coming to him :)”
“Boris is the real deal. His level of mechanical knowledge shows in the work he performs. He worked quickly and efficeintly to get my 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee back up and running. I will definitely call on him for future work on my vehicles.”
“Sparky’s Transmissions is a truly professional shop. I was sure that there was a major issue with my transmission, so I took the car over to Sparky’s for an analysis. Bill greeted me promptly and cordially, and the environment at the shop was very comfortable and attractive. Later that day, Bill called to tell me that my transmission was fine, and the problem was actually with my motor mounts. Furthermore, there was no charge for the valued analysis. Wow! I am really impressed by the service at Sparky’s.”
“I have been coming here with my vehicles for a long time. They are great and have never tried to sell me on things I did not need. Their prices are much lower than dealer.”
“I cannot explain how much these guys helped me in a review. Took a car in for a pre-buy inspection, and they found everything. Not only do they find everything, but they can explain it in detail. They even jacked the car up and took me on a walk through inspection of the car, part by part.
Auto Center is an amazing mechanic, that is truly on your side, and it was extremely quick. I felt so much more confident walking out of this shop about my purchase, and they gave me a 'ease of mind', that is priceless. It is honestly such a rare thing to find such a honest, and hard working mechanic.”
“Tony is very nice guy to work with and his work is very reasonably priced. He stands by his work. He rebuilt a AOD for my project car and after I over tightened the TV pressure plug and broke the case he was able to find an old case and swapped out all the the parts and charged me pennies for what another shop would have. It was my fault and he was considerate when he did that for me..THANK YOU TONY!”
“Carlos has been taking care of my vehicle for years and always gives me honest advice and great service. I appreciate his professionalism and straightforward approach. I’ve had everything from a simple oil change to a total engine replacement and have always been satisfied with the price and the quality of service I received from Carlos and the team at Family Auto Service La Mesa. Highly recommend!”
“I'm not sure why I haven't reviewed him a long time ago. I've been going to him for years. He is the most honest mechanic I know. As a woman, I tend to get taken advantage of since I don't know anything about cars. Not with Hector. He always lets me know what will next to replace too. Never over priced. I recommend him to anyone that I know needing a good mechanic. ?”
