I have a 2007 Honda Gx Natural Gas car and when I found Mikes I knew I came to the exact right place for this type of car. After taking my car to the dealer , the Honda trained technician couldn’t get to my low pressure filter because the nut was seized which is a problem with these cars when they’ve been sitting for so many years.
At that time I knew it was best to go to a place where they specialise in my car and have the experience. JR was so helpful and he did his level best to repair my problem without it costing me more money! Yes, the filter canister still had to be replaced but I knew that we had the best guys for the job and at Honda they might very well have done more very , very expensive damage trying to get the nut off. Jr took care of everything and even saved me money on the whole job ! Fantastic repair shop!
They are totally honest and second to none on knowledge of
Natural Gas Hondas.
The only place to bring your Honda GX.

Came in for a smog check and was so impressed by Mike and his team that I'm already planning on brining my sister's car here, which has been sitting in the driveway until I could find a trustworthy, efficient mechanic in the area. The team was incredibly professional and honest. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking to get their car fixed or even for a smog check. Was in and out in no time!

Absolute quality service. Checked my engine light for free and didn't charge me when we found out it was just an error. Super swift service, super nice people, and pretty good value. Truly a really nice establishment!

I recently took my Civic here for a tank solenoid replacement. There are several other shops who would install these for less. However, I chose Mike's to do the work because they specialize in these systems. Give them a call, and you will see they have a unique understanding of how these cars function and how to work on them. I was able to pick the brain of their mechanic, JR, and gain some valuable knowledge I couldn't find online otherwise. They are very professional in their communication, and easy to deal with. I called another CNG repair shop, and the guy's tone on the phone was as if I was bothering him and taking up his time. Emil (Mike's) was able to talk me through the process of what needs to be done, and was willing ti answer any questions I had, and I had many. 10/10 I will take my car here for CNG related services. Highly recommended professionals with a special understanding of CNG related vehicles.Services: Auto engine diagnostic

They are honest, but they charge for a vehicle inspection without actually fixing the issue. I will not be taking my service here again.

This place is an absolute gem! For myself it was like walking into that vintage show CHEEERS because that's how ALL the guys made me feel. Like my car, myself and wallet were safe amongst friends, along with a few chuckles here and there (I like that).I've been to so many places who have tried or have taken advantage of myself because I'm a female walking in needing assistance with my vehicle... Cha-Ching they see dollar signs!!! Mikes didn't ask me for payment of my soul. You can feel the feel the organic kindness from them. I really like this place. If it's a service they can provide, I will never go to anywhere else again. This place is my go to for here on out. Thank you Sultan for the stellar service! I'll be back!

A family member of mine had referred me over to Mike's Advanced Auto and I'm so glad they did! I needed some work done on my Ford F-150 truck, and these guys really knew their stuff! Not only are they extremely knowledgeable, but they are also complete straight-shooters and very honest folks. Nothing but good down-to-earth peeps, who can be fully relied upon to make a proper evaluation and assessment of your vehicle's needs. It's clear they care very deeply about their customers, and take great pride and value in the work they do. I honestly couldn't recommend these guys more highly. Thanks again for all your help! Cheers! David

Honest, Friendly, Highly Experienced, Professional, Prompt (and also Certified CNG / NATURAL GAS Pros) — Mike’s shop is a veteran-owned family business that our family will FOREVER trust to take care of our cars! I can’t overstate the integrity of everyone here — from Mike himself, to Emil (his son), and Junior (Mike’s nephew), they’re a team that can be ABSOLUTELY trusted to ETHICALLY maintain your vehicles… and do so at an *incredibly* FAIR price.Like finding a needle in a haystack — our family is SO glad we found you Mike, Emil, & Junior!!! Having read **EVERY** review of yours on Yelp! and Google Maps prior to coming in — when my father and I eventually met you all, it was *crystal* clear why you’ve rightfully earned a near perfect 5-Star rating!!!Not only is Mike MASTER ASE CERTIFIED for Service & Repairs, but he’s also a certified FORD MASTER MECHANIC (having worked for Ford for close to a decade, before opening his current shop), as well an expert in DIESELs (thanks to his time in the military) … and even LPG (Liquified Propane Gas) vehicles!!! (YES!!! I saw you working on a forklift on one of my recent visits! Ha!)Mike alone — heck, he’s been working on cars for nearly 4 decades!! Your jaw will drop when you see all the certifications proudly displayed on the walls of the lobby. Add in Emil & Junior’s experience to the mix and you can stack a few more decades atop that.This family takes EXTREME pride in the business, as evidenced by the immaculate conditions in which they keep the shop. (Think I’m exaggerating? Check it out for yourself! Swing by the shop and take a peek inside their 2 rear roll-up doors!!! As automotive shops go, it’s darn near clean enough to eat off the floors…). Everything is organized, well lit, lifts are nicely spaced, parts/machines/tools all have their place … it’s ALL laid out for maximum efficiency and attention to detail.Mike’s been at his current location going on 18 years, and he’s not going anywhere, as evidenced by the fact that he recently expanded — doubling the space. The new ‘footprint’ is PERFECT from a customer’s perspective, as it’s plenty big to get you taken care of in a timely manner — the exact opposite of those larger shops or dealerships that make you feel like just another ‘number’. Now with twice the space, they’re slated to increase from 3 existing lifts to an eventual 6 — with aims of capacities accommodating *much* heavier vehicles. (everything up to the likes of 6 or 7 tons, I believe).As for anyone considering dropping their car off after-hours — no worries!!! I did this for the first time, 2 weeks ago… and the exterior of the building (and parking lot) is surveilled by an *impressive* array of quality security cameras, and *excellent* lighting.I’d also be remiss in not pointing out that Mike and his team’s unique expertise has garnered not only the trust of private vehicles owners such our family — but also that of an impressive number of local cities/municipalities/Utilities who’ve *exclusively* contracted with MAAC (Mike’s Advanced Auto Care) to maintain their *sizable* fleets of vehicles. (Oh… and FWIW… in the event this fact might have anyone thinking this might prolong the turnaround time of getting their personal vehicles in/out… I can personally attest that this has NEVER been the case. In the last 3 weeks alone, we’ve had 2 of our 4 cars ‘in’ and it’s *never once* presented an issue.)Bottom line, Mike and team are the MOST HUMBLE, HONEST, PROFESSIONAL mechanics our family has EVER MET!Mike’s got a heart of gold and ethics to match. Under his expertise and leadership, this is a shop one would be *foolish* to not work with!!!!God bless you Mike and team… your advice has ALWAYS been selfless, honest, and impeccable!Thank you for setting the benchmark by which all others should be judged!!!Immensely grateful,-Ted Bowersox & Family
