“I've been to many places where they do oil changes and out of all of them, I believe Valvoline has the most professional service coming from ever team member during the service.”
“I can’t recommend this shop enough. After a stressful day with two blown tires and damaged wheels, the father-and-son owners went above and beyond to help me. They had exactly what I needed at a very fair price, explained everything clearly, and treated me with kindness and patience. Thanks to them, I was able to get safely back on the road the same day. Genuine, honest people who truly care about their customers. As a bonus, while I waited I was kept company while I waited by the shop dog who is the sweetest golden retriever. I would highly recommend this shop. Thank you for everything!”
“Can’t thank these guys enough! Pulled in Easter morning, oil level in my Sprinter was overfull. They knew exactly what to do, and how to do it. Saved our road trip! Thank you so much.”
“I had such a great experience here! The guy who helped (don’t remember his name) was super friendly and patient, taking the time to explain everything clearly without any pressure. They were able to get my car serviced the same day, which was such a lifesaver. It’s rare to find a shop that’s both efficient and honest, but they really delivered. I’ll definitely be coming back for future maintenance — highly recommend!”
“I went here because my brother recommended this place before he passed away last thanksgiving, and it was only a couple of blocks away from my house, I pulled up at 8am and right away I was greeted and then referred to the master mechanic, he was very polite and kind, I explained my situation with my vehicle and how i had went to firestone and they did a diagnostic and told me what the problem was, right away he said that does not sound like your problem and I believe it is something else. So he recommended that i let him diagnose it, and he was right and what firestone told me was wrong, i had my breaks done at calderons and they did a terrible job and ripped me off, and i told him about that too, and he said not to worry and that they offered free brake inspections, my suv drove bad with bad breaks and tires rubbing, it was scary, long story short, they did a full inspection on my vehicle for free and found issues that i was not aware of and also found the real problem i was having with my front suspension and breaks. They quoted me a price that I thought was very reasonable and fair and I said let’s do it, they ordered the parts and the next day by 5pm my truck was done and let me tell you I could not be happier. My truck drives better than it ever has and my breaks are excellent. And everything is backed by a 2 year warranty. Excellent service excellent shop excellent job. Love this place and will definitely be back.”
“The boys are very fast and friendly! Just for the customer service alone I'd come back. Alfredo I believe his name is was a cool dude. Made lots of conversation but got the job done!”

Oil Change
“had a mini slice in my tire, and Firestone wouldn't fix it, so I went here to Cuevas and DAMN, within 15min flat, I had my tire patched and it was only 20$. its been a month since I've had it patched and there's been absolutely no problems with it. this place is FAST, the workers get straight to work, which is so good when your in a pinch. 5☆ i definitely reccomend this place”
“They smogged my 93 geo metro. They were very quick and meticulous. They were not afraid to ask me questions about the car. They have the tools and intellect to look up emission label diagrams unlike GOMEZ AUTO REPAIR. Highly recommend going here!”

Oil Change
“5 stars -- Joey has great customer service skills. He's always friendly and smiles. Going through the car wash seems like it's been leaving scratches noticeable on my black car. So with my new white car if I have it washed here it will be by hand which costs more. For now I'll take a break from acme and hand wash my cars myself. The drive thru car wash is convenient. You can also fill up with gas at this location. Vacuums are available for customer use”
“I just got my oil Change, Luis was the technician who helped me, he is very knowledgeable, well mannered bright minded. He deserves a raise! 10/10 would come here again. Keep up the good work Luis yeeeeeeeeee boiiiiiiiiiiiiiii”
“Richard was very helpful and informative. Pleasure to work with and confident in Gomez Auto repair. A definite go to spot for any auto repair questions or service.”
