“Amazing service! I took my wrecked Nissan Altima to this shop and got all the mechanical repairs done to get it running, I am super thankful to Sam the owner who explained everything to me and even referred me to a body shop for the body damage! Turn around time was way quicker then I expected! Service was 10/10. I will definitely come back because of this outstanding service. Thank you

“If you own a GTR or any exotic car, do yourself a favor and take it to Aman’s Auto Performance Repair. Dan is not just a mechanic, he’s a true specialist who is fully dedicated to high-performance and exotic vehicles.

I’ve had multiple services done on my GTR here, and every single time the work has been flawless. Dan is extremely knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and actually takes the time to explain what your car needs. No upselling, no guessing just honest and expert work.

What really sets Aman apart is his deep understanding of GTRs. He knows these cars inside and out, treats them with respect, and works on them as if they were his own. You can immediately tell he’s passionate about what he does, and that confidence gives you real peace of mind when trusting someone with a high value performance car.

The shop is professional, communication is clear, and turnaround time is solid for the level of work being done. If you’re tired of shops that don’t understand exotics or rush jobs, this is the place you’ve been looking for.

I wouldn’t take my GTR anywhere else. Highly highly recommended.”

“Great customer service, and a timely matter. Called in with a minor battery issue on a wednesday morning, brought my car in right away and had my car back and working right with no over charges by noon. Big shout out to this place ??”

“You cannot find a more honest, trustworthy, well priced mechanic. Kevin and Tony are quick at understanding even the most complex issues, figuring out the best price to fix and then their team does a fantastic job. Over the last 20 years, they have worked on many different cars of mine (Subarus, fords, BMW) and with every fix they understand my needs and help to make the best decisions. Cannot recommend higher!! I live far from them now and still take my cars there!! And, most importantly, I trust them completely. They will never oversell you. So honest!!!”

“I brought a car here for a PPI and I was blown away by the service and friendliness of everyone. Erin, you’re an absolute legend and have an amazing business. Thank you for being so attentive to my needs and resolving any questions I had. It was a pleasant drive back to LA knowing everything was in order when I left your shop. I guess I can only buy vehicles in the Bay Area from now on so I can take them your way!!”

“In my experience, this is the best place to go for your maintenance or ur modification. They’re flexible but it is not the cheapest place. I’m definitely going to them for everything. Best customer service!”

“I never write reviews but Michael was exceptional so I wanted to write about my experience here!Michael was extremely thorough and has a very kind demeanor (something I haven’t encountered much with mechanics). His pre purchase inspection saved me from buying a car with lots of invisible issues that I couldn't tell from test driving it. No pressure to do any services at his shop and very transparent throughout the process. Price was very fair too, half of what others were charging, and no upselling to get work done at his shop specifically. He even looked up an estimate for the specific issue on the car to give me an idea of the cost of the repair all without pressuring me to have the fix done at his shop. Very professional and honest 10/10 service. I'll be back when I'm in the area again.”

“Had an amazing experience here! I took my car somewhere else for a tune up and they suggested a ton of different fixes that would have amounted to a total of 7k! I brought it to Cat's for a second opinion and got a much better deal, plus a better understanding of what my car needs and doesn't need (since I only expect to use it for another couple years). Plus my car finally sounds normal now after years of loud exhaust sounds. Thanks Cat's!”

“Honest evaluation with no unexpected surprise costs. Finished within the estimated timeframe. Polite and professional. They cover all types of repairs besides mufflers. I highly recommend their service.”

“Very trustworthy and honest serivce provider. Very difficult to find honest mechanics in today's world. Will continue my car servicing with this service provider moving forward.”

“We are beyond grateful for Henry’s superior work ethic! We were traveling through San Jose for a family vacation and our suburban’s transmission went out. Without knowing the area, the owner’s communicate kept us calm and reassured us that we trusted the right business! He is professional, highly skilled and kind! Thank you for getting our family back home safely!”

“UPDATE: I trust this place 100%. I bought a new (but used) car from a dealer and went to get something checked out at the name brand dealer. I honestly think they messed up my car, so I came back to Minh and he fixed the issue without hesitation. It’s hard to know where to go and where to trust - support local, honest businesses like this!

Minh is a very kind, spirited, and trustworthy guy. He’s helped me out on numerous occasions and I’m very thankful!”

“Salim is a really nice guy. He has been working with me to resolve my problem with my car stalling. It's been frustrating trying to figure it out but I am extremely grateful he has been helping through all my frustration with this.”

“This marked my first visit to Mark's Transmission, now formally known as MTS Transmission, and I must admit, I've never had a better experience dealing with mechanics. Initially, I took my Jeep Wrangler to the dealership, where they proposed replacing the entire rear differential at a steep price. However, upon a recommendation, I visited MTS Transmission, and it turned out to be the best decision I could have made. Mark was exceptionally pleasant and patient. He took the time to inspect my Jeep thoroughly and provided a detailed explanation of the issue. Contrary to the dealership's recommendation, it was determined that my Jeep didn't require a full rear differential replacement, but rather just the rear differential carrier, along with the installation of new side bearings and rear axle bearings, which resulted in a much more reasonable overall cost. I will certainly return in the future. Many thanks to Mark and his team for their assistance and efforts in getting my Jeep back on the road.”

“I'm had issues on 2009 Subaru tow in and done next day I'm very happy and trusted there work IL highly recommend there work and very fair price and therein discount five stars on me thanks ? ?”

“Really solid guys (son and dad). I had tranmission issues with my land cruiser, and 3rd gear was skipping. So I needed a rebuilt. I shop around 4 different shops told me the same thing.
Reason why I pick ZATC. they can start working on my tranmission the next day. Other shops had 1 to 2 weeks waiting.
Plus I was talking to the dad of the shop he is a big land cruiser fan aswell, show me pics of his one. That make me feel better letting them work on my Toyota.
5days later got a call form them saying the LC was done. The tranmission works well and shifting was alot better. Super happy with this company. Thank you guys. If you have tranmission problem bring it to them. I'm happy I found a solid tranmission shop now.”

“So it’s been exactly 1 week since I got my car back from the shop ?I had an electrical issue. (Wires)When I would press the start button to turn off my car, the engine wouldn’t shut off right away. It would take a few minutes. It would shake until it would force itself off… then my headlight would turn itself ON. (Yes, the lights were OFF) So b/c there was no other way for me to turn off, a button that was already off.. it would kill my battery… which would make me jump my car every other day when it wouldn’t turn off properly.Anyway… I had already made an appointment at a Ford dealership in San Leandro for an oil change.. then I included the issue above. I had my car there for a lil over a week, I spoke with him the weekend after drop off (monday), and the day of pick up (the next Monday). I couldn’t get a hold of him throughout the time my car was getting looked at.I called & spoke w/a few other ppl then I eventually spoke w/manager who told me he would get the guy assigned to me to reach out, which he never did. When I picked up the car, they said they couldn’t find anything.A day after, the car started doing the same thing, I dropped my car off after hours (b/c of work)Spoke to someone new, asked for someone different for the lack of communication, the new guy didn’t like that so much, so I took my car to the Ford dealership in Fremont,They ran another diagnostic (2), they too said they could not find anything, but that my oil was over filled & that I needed another one (drain out and put new), something about a lid under the hood needed fixing which would cost $1800, and I have bad tires in the front. They too had issues with communication, but it was kinda better then San Leandro..+ it was there a lil over a week b/c I had to wait 3 days for someone to run a diagnostic ?I honestly felt discouraged, and I didn’t know who to trust.Then I went ahead and took it to Managal Motors, because I remember having a good experience with my rotors getting replaced a few years ago.I called in, I dropped my car off the day of. I was told that they were going to run another diagnostic (3) and that it would take some time to find out the issue of the car. They called for questions about it before working on it, plus called in again to let me know what they were doing, and what he thought the issue might be, and then I got a text of a receipt & a call it was ready. I dropped it off before their shopped closed on a Tuesday, and got the car back on Monday (they had it fixed less then a week!)I haven’t had any issues with the engine turning off, or no spooky lights turning on by itself since ☺️☺️☺️☺️ & I was also told about my bad ties in front. (Which I did know about, I had my back tires changed, and I was working towards the front… anyway) I felt like they actually took the time out to find out what was wrong w/ my car, & kept in communication, and my car wasn’t even with them for a whole week.I’m not sorry for the long review, I’ve been really frustrated with the lost of money,time and lack of communication and trust. I’m so thankful that my car is back up n running.? THANK YOU MANGALE MOTORS!!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!Ps. I had some burnt wires (from a car accident) that needed to be replaced, and the total cost was $537.69Which includes a diagnostic, parts, & labor.”

“one of Hayward's top auto repair shops. I was recommended to this store by my brother. Always give me sound advice instead than just generating money and keeping their word. I've been going here for three years. Genuine auto components and very affordable labour are also available. I advise everyone who lives in the Hayward area to visit this store for the best service. Last but not least, I would like to thank Mr. Goldy, the shop's owner, for his excellent service and high-quality products.”

“As a halfway decent mechanic myself, it's difficult for me to have someone else work on my cars. Thank goodness for Dando's. These guys don't mess around. They know their stuff and are very professional. Communication is great and you always know what to expect. You get an honest quote up front and if something unexpected pops up they let me know right away and give me options before proceeding. I recommend Dando's 100%. I still like to tinker with my cars but it's sure nice to have them there for the big stuff or just the stuff that I don't have time for.”

“I love this service! Jasbir And his daughter are beautiful people. They don't gouge you and they have quality service fixed my 1994 Pathfinder also my Civic was totaled. It was a difficult tow for the original tow truck driver but Jasbir arrived on saying and got the truck on the flatbed in no time”

“Brought in my car for a check engine light and ended up being diagnosed with some major problems. Now, he could easily have taken my money and done this major repair, but he actually cautioned us against this and suggested we pursue help from the manufacturer since my car wasn’t very old, and had fairly low mileage. Thanks to him, after a lengthy back and forth with the manufacturer, we are saving THOUSANDS on this repair. So grateful that he was so honest and gave us advice that was truly in our best interest. We will be referring friends and family here for their needs! One family member has already had a repair done and was happy with the service and pricing. Good, honest shop! You won’t regret bringing them your business.”

“Great service, my car had difficulty turning, diagnosed as a leak in the steering rack and was fixed within 2 days - the part turned out to be defective and broke again the next day, but was repaired again immediately at no extra cost.”

“I been bringing personal and work vehicles to Sam for years now. from simple oil changes and breaks to transmission swaps.

He will personally view and work on each vehicle and will communicate with you along the way if its complicated repair.

He's honest and fast. I believe he's expanding now and offering tire services.

You won't go wrong with SMC.”

“If you're looking for a reliable and trustworthy auto shop, this is it. Mike is a quality mechanic. He's experienced and honest; most shops I've encountered only have one of the two. Mike is always quick to respond and patient in going into detail with whatever questions you might have. You can tell he genuinely has his customer's best interest at heart. My experiences at TLS Automotive Electrical have always been more than satisfactory.”

“Take all my cars here for regular maintenance and more serious problems. They always get to the root of the problem and what is the best fix. Best part of every transaction has been the honesty and we all know how hard it is to find an honest mechanic. Would recommend to my mother! Great shop!”

“They did my motor mounts brakes and rotors for my ford focus. I’m no mechanic but I am a car enthusiast;a broke one but they were very detailed and polite.Rad dudes.I don’t see why you wouldn’t give them 5 stars.”

“Been coming here for years! The least I can do is to leave a great review for this man! Other places would already be charging you without even checking your car yet. Most honest Mechanic I’ve ever met! Real stand up guy!! Appreciate you always, Mike!”

“We've been bringing our family’s cars to Hayward Auto Care for years, and the service has always been outstanding. The quality of work is top-notch, and Ken and his team are consistently honest and dependable. A few months ago, my daughter got a quote for brakes and an oil change from another shop just to compare—and it was over $100 more than Hayward Auto! We truly appreciate their fair pricing and excellent service. We'll be loyal customers for life!”
