I cannot say enough good things about “Padillas Auto Repair” in Monterey! I feel like it is so hard to find an honest, reliable mechanic that isn’t trying to get top dollar, or make you feel confused with what is being done with your vehicle! They helped me with my break replacement & gave me a quote for a Tune up without making me feel pressured to book the service! I 100% reccomend giving them a call for any of your Auto Repair needs?⭐️

Padilla Auto Repair had our van in and out of the shop quickly with a major repair on our California road-trip. Thank you, Juan, for getting us back on the road! Would definitely recommend this shop.

Mr. Juan, owner of the store, is very friendly, safe and very competent. Whenever I have had problems with one of my cars, he has repaired them. Until now, I have not had any bad experience in the store. A thousand thanks to Mr. Juan. Juan Padilla.

Hey Juan. Thank you so much for helping us today and yesterday. You are a genius for helping to solve this problem. You have saved my bacon a couple of times now. So much thanks from the Australian guy!

When you move to a new city and have to find a new mechanic, it can be tough! I can reassure you that Padilla is the real deal. I go to him for both of my cars. He replaced an engine on one of my cars about two years ago. Continues to run SMOOTH. He’s done our breaks and tires and replaced a broken axel. He’s easy to talk to and easily my favorite mechanic. Highly recommend.Services: Tires

Needed a diagnostic for the Catalytic converter and Padilla's diagnostic-rate was significantly less than the other places I called. Brought it in, didn't need an appointment, and Juan told me that he is pretty sure that it would be covered under warranty. Needed to wait a couple days for the dealership to get back to me and Padilla was nice enough to even let us leave our car on their property until we got an official response if it was covered or not. Turns out it was covered and Padilla saved us A LOT of $$$. I appreciated their honestly about the warranty, their kindness and availability to help, and their overall customer service was excellent. I will be taking my cars to them from now on and recommend them to anyone.Service: Auto maintenance

Replaced my battery on the spot in 30 minutes. Glad they were open on a Saturday which is hard to find in Monterey .No waiting room so went to a nearby park

We took our vehicles for a much needed service. We spent close to $1k as the cars were due for transmission service, oil pan replacement, and brakes. The price is reasonable and this shop gets busy. I'd recommend this place. It is hard to find a good mechanic shop in Monterey at a reasonable cost.

My car broke down in the middle of the road and the man who helped me push it off the road (bless his heart) told me he was pretty sure my transmission needed replaced and so did the guy who towed my car to Padilla. I just moved to Monterey this past month and don't know anyone so I had no way of knowing what mechanic wasn't going to rip me off. I feel really lucky to have decided to go to this shop! A transmission repair would have run me up thousands of dollars! But Padilla let me know all I had was a broken axel and he fixed it very quickly. He could have told me it was anything! He could have charged me so much more and I would have gone with it because I know nothing about cars! The quote he gave me over the phone was also $30 more than what I ended up paying. He is very honest and I 100% recommend his shop.

I always take my car here for repairs. It's a small place, and Juan is very busy, so call ahead and give him time! He'll take care of your vehicle and is always honest, considerate, and professional.
