****AVOID THIS SHOP AT ALL COST***** Jason the owner is a scam artist, he claims he knows what he's doing but doesn't. He will promise you professional work but gives you Mikey mouse work. Jason quoted us $12k to get an LS engine up and running in 30 days professional custom work.(engine was already installed he just had to turn the truck on) 5 months later and $14k in and in he still can't finish, and all work is Mikey mouse work. When I picked the truck up it was ridiculous what Jason calls custom work. And there was new damage to the truck that he denied. Jason will ignore you and lie to you about their abilities to finish a job. After all this Jason refuses to give me a receipt for the money I've paid him! Don't get screwed out of money and avoid Jason and his shop at all cost!!

I should have listened to my gut. I had an uneasy feeling when Jason-the owner-asked for cash up front. Jason promised the job would take two weeks and almost eight weeks later-still not complete. He would not return my phone calls or texts. I finally went down there and after much arguing with his employees and threatening to call Oceanside Police, I finally towed my car out of there. The properly licensed shop I did take my car to was appalled at the shoddy work done by Coast Auto Care. Don't just go by this review, go to the Better Business Bureau's website and judge for yourself. Jason did not respond to ANY complaints filed against him. His BBB rating is "F".

May 2,2024 CUSTOMERS BEWARE! DO NOT GO HERE! Bad business from start to finish. Terrible customer service. Owner Jason only communicate through text if he ever respond. Will never answer his phone. Long story short this is a scam operation. Jason takes your deposit, never fixes the issue, claims there more wrong to get money, to ultimately say they don't have the time come pick up your car. They had my car for 3 weeks and did nothing. Naturally I wanted my deposit back ($550) once picked up and remove by tow. Jason stole my deposit. Won't respond, won't return my deposit. I didn't want to leave a review because I know Jason doesn't care about reviews but I had to warn folks out in Oceanside and SD County. Now I have to waste my time taking him to court, dealing with the BAR, police reports, and posting reviews. If refund me my deposit today Jason as I asked I'll remove this review.

Coast auto care is the best ! They beat competitors pricing and have fast reliable service. We moved to Oceanside in 2017 and have been sending everyone we know there since. They have never disappointed any of us over the years..!!

My wife and I have had several of our classic cars built and upgraded with them over the years and they always exceed our expectations.Jason knows his stuff and is an old school car guy. Very rare these days.! You will be glad you went there when it's all said and done.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE HERE!!! Jason is nothing put a snake, he gives mechanics and shops a bad name. He will take your money and not answer your calls. Look at his negative comments on Google those are the truth everything else is bots or he made up those profiles. Ask every shop around and they will tell you that they have to fix every vehicle he touches.

The owner, Jason, is incredibly dishonest. He has taken money and not completed the vehicle. Jason will also not answer his phone or respond to any communication. We have had to get the Oceanside police involved. Very disappointed.

This shop stole my money and the owner jason blocked me on everything. They cheat and lie. Im owed 15,000 dollars and he has legit run off with it. I thought they could do a transmission swap like they said they could. They said 2 weeks and this October will be 1 year of me trying to get my money back. They won't even answer the phone and when they do and hear it'd me asking for my refund they hang up. I have all the proof. This shop is a lie!!! They won't do the work you pay for!!!!Service: Transmission repair

This business is awesome, I would say they work fast and are very reasonable with their prices. They were even willing to take my calls after hours making sure I was taken care of. I would say the only down part about this business is that they struggled a bit with reaching out when it canes to information about my vehicle but after I called them they answered all my questions. So would recommend if you want the job done right and in a timely matter!Service: Auto maintenance
