There four people you need in life: a good wife, a good doctor, a good lawyer and a good mechanic. Mike is a good and honest mechanic. We have trusted him over the years with our elderly Ridgeline, my Subaru BRZ, our son's Civic, and now a BMW I3. He checks all the major components every time we bring a car in for even an oil change. His prices are extremely competitive. Saddleback Automotive is an American small business at its finest.

Mike is always responsive and super helpful whenever I have a problem with my car. Having a 2010 Smart Car can be challenging, but thanks to the shops expertise, I never have anything to worry about.When taking your car in, make sure to get there early! The shop operates on a first come first serve basis. The earlier you are, the earlier you will get your baby back. Generally, Mike will call you back within the day (depending on the size of the repair) and will let you know what the plan of action is. Prices are fair! I'm sure there are other places where you can get things done for a but cheaper, but the quality of service is to the moon here. Our family has been using this location for over a decade and wouldn't recommend anyone else. He even gave me a recommendation for another shop today since they don't do Audio repairs! Thank you Mike and team! Keep rocking it!

Excellent customer service and very honest. Highly recommend. I took our 1972 Corvette there because it wouldn't start. They called us back promptly and let us know what repairs were needed. They had excellent communication and didn't try to over sell any unneeded services. Their pricing was excellent and it was refreshing to find a automotive repair shop that is honest and gives great customer service.

I don't live in area. Had my catalytic converter stolen. My sister uses Saddleback Automotive for her cars. Towed my car over and had the best service ever. Mike found what I needed and fixed my car in one day!! Very friendly people. I only wish I lived closer so I could bring my car there for everything. I highly recommend it!

Trustworthy and great pricing. I went to 2 shops before here and they were trying to charge me over $200 to check for an ac leak. Mike was able to help me the same day for under $100 and was able to find that there were no leaks. I'm happy I came here instead of going to one of the last shops.

Saddleback Automotive was referred to me by a friend and woody owner, Gary Clark. Mike the owner is a no B.S. Straight forward kind of guy, and tells it like it is. So if you want warm and fuzzy don't go there. If you want professional work performed on your classic vehicle or any vehicle, Saddleback is the place to go. Jack the mechanic that worked on my woody was very professional and informative. Mike and the crew took great care of my woody. It stayed inside the whole time. I trailered the car to Saddleback and drove it home. The expected problem was a badly leaking rear main seal. It turned out to be a crack in the oil pan from a loose fly wheel rubbing on the oil pan two years earlier, which was replaced in 2019.. Jack found the problem and Mike called me right away with actually good news that the rear main seal was in great shape. They brazed up the cut in the oil pan and reinstalled it. They checked out the rest of the drive train and adjusted the brakes. Mike is the kind of guy that makes sure your vehicle is safe to drive. I am a very stoked customer and hopefully won't have to return there anytime time soon. BUT, if I have a problem with either one of my classic cars. I know where to take them. Thank you so much Mike and Jack......Mickey Rat, H.B. (Mike Ester)Services: Engine repair

Great price for synthetic oil change. Second time time using Groupon there. Won't be returning. Tired of cleaning up "residual fluids" dripping at home: this time in my driveway.
