Just had my air condition done and my brakes the air conditioner was the same price that I had asked the owner the previous year so love how the prices don't change within time. Elias was a wonderful owner great very polite he even offered to clean my rotors to save them so I wouldn't have to replace them with new ones I love how he had all my work done in one day and knew how valuable I needed my car done in one day I appreciate his work his service I love how they have tracks in their office to read because God is good and he does marvelous things. And God bless me with Mr Elias who gave me a wonderful price and who works on my car and works on it with compassion and care along with his mechanics.

Fast, fast, fast, and they'll tell right away if your car is smogged. Very good pricing and exactly what you need.

Auto repair shops. The experience at these places can sometimes be similar to those as the Dentist; painful and expensive. Lets face it; nobody WANTS to spend time at an auto shop unless we absolutely have to...and everybody has had their horror stories about bad service or being ripped off at these places. Finding an honest repair shop can often be a challenge, at best.They are located on Redlands Blvd, across the street from the Pep Boys and the 99 Cent Store, in a place chock full of auto repair/tire/smog shops.Simply put - I can't recommend Kellems enough. Here's what brought me to this statement.My wife drives a 2013 Honda Fit and its heater hasn't really worked since we bought it (used) Of course that isn't an issue right now during the summer - but come winter it's a must-have. Especially since she works as a caretaker for a couple elderly clients and is often taking them to do their shopping, or for doctor's visits, etc. So this year I banked my tax return with the intention of finally getting the care looked at.Since I didn't know whom to take it to, I posted on a local Highland Facebook group I'm on for recommendations. Kellms came up more than once..and even a lady who's a friend of me and the wifey recommended it. After reading the Yelp reviews, I was guardedly optimistic. So last Thursday (8/3); I took it in.I explained the situation to them and even asked for them to look over the AC system just to make sure it was working as well as it could and left the car with them. Saturday I got a call from them (2, actually!), and they explained that their diagnoses was an AC/Heater door actuator switch... and even though 99% of the more modern cars out there had an electronic switch. ours was a manual one and a dealer part would be required. He quoted me a price of around $1000 for the repair; as much of the cost was the labor to take the entire dash apart. He also explained that the dealer part would take a week to come in; and asked if this was okay. I said yes as I had earmarked 3k for the repair in case it was the heater core.So Tuesday comes along and I get a call from the shop saying that not only was the car ready; that when they took apart the dash they saw it was merely a cable that had broken that needed replacing; which brought the repair down to $800. Wow! Needless to say I was very happy! The repair was perfect and both the AC and heater are working fine...But get this!! About a half our ago the owner calls me to not only ask how the car was running, but to tell me that he was looking over the invoices for the week and he realized they had overcharged us for a $50 part that he thought would be needed at first, but that they didn't need after all and that he forgot to take it off the invoice when the wife picked up the car. He said just bring the invoice in if we ever come back for another repair and he'd credit us the $50 towards it. WHAT KIND OF BUSINESS DOES THIS ANYMORE?!?!?!?! Kellems does. They were very polite and communicative the entire time, up front about what needed to be done and what it would cost, respectful of my time and very honest when they caught their accounting mistake. Talk about a breath of fresh air.Seriously, if I could give this place 6 or 7 Yelp stars, I would. We will certainly be bringing our cars here when we need them looked at. Highly highly recommended. Tell the man at the front desk "Wayne from Yelp - Helen's Friend" sent you!

I don’t do reviews, but this is one of the best if not the best mechanics I’ve ever been to. Not only was my car taken care of but so was I. The owner Elias is such an understanding and relatable person, him and his staff really know how to take care of the people they extend their services to, it didn’t feel like a simple exchange it felt as if I was bringing my car to an old friend. I was kept in the loop the entire time and never once felt like I was trying to be taken advantage of. Once again I have to extend the biggest thanks to the owner Elias he handled my car with so much care and made me feel secure in spending the amount of money I had to spend. Definitely will be returning when I need to ! :)
