This reviews is long due. I got timing belt package done by Charlie. He promised that the noise from timing belt area will be gone after he changes it, but it never went away...he gave me warranty of 1 year also. The noise didn't go away when I picked up my car after he was done with the job. He somehow convinced me(-he speaks alot) that the noise is not due to Timing Belt package. Later that week, I got the noise diagnosed from my car dealer and they told me noise is definitely from parts of timing belt package. At this point, it was confirmed Charlie didn't do his job correctly and charged me heavily. I took my car next week and he turned me away saying he is busy, cannot talk and asked me to come next day. I called next day and he said he can replace the parts but he will have to charge the labor as labor is not covered in warranty. I decided not to take my car to him anymore.Today, another mechanic told me that labor is also covered by mechanics when job is still under warranty.I am feel cheated by Charlie after so much of back and forth and getting an expensive job done.

I would like to give 5Star to Mr. Charlie for his service on my 2011 Huyndai. I came to him with multiple issues with my function keys not working on the Steering wheel. He gave his time and effort to diagnose the issue. used the genuine parts and fixed it in 2 visits. I got this done at a reasonable price compared to other auto-mechs around. (Thanks for letting me use the wifi while I could continue to do my work , while I was waiting).Kunal

I have been going to Charlie for past 10-12 years. Very reliable and gives honest opinion. I have done from oil change to major services for all our cars. You can't go wrong with Choice auto.

Basic shop and reasonable price. Don't expect a bargain though

If you have a vehicle that is not under factory warranty please take your car/van to Choice Auto for any repairs or regular maintenance. You can trust the owner, Charlie, with your vehicle. He won't recommend any unnecessary work for your vehicle. Very cost effective and saves money when compared to the dealerships. I fully recommend Choice Auto. I would say this hidden gem is the best in the Bay Area.

Charlie explained everything in detail and gave confidence to the work. Reducing 1 star because it’s little pricey compared to other places

This place is a scam. DO NOT COME HERE. This is the absolute worst auto repair choice I made. We had an issue with the braking pads, so I researched online and sent my husband to bring our car here after reading the good reviews and getting a cheapest quote. The owner was way warmer over the phone providing the quote. His tone completed changed when we went to pick up the car, he over charged by $90 than promised over the phone and threatened us if we dared to argue. We ended up paying, fearing for our safety, but will never return, and recommends everyone to stay clear of this scam place.

I went with my car engine light on. Charlie quickly diagnosed the issue, and fixed it while I waited, within 2 hours!He got the parts right away. And also checked engine fluids, windshield wipers, and even did a test drive before handing it off!He is reliable, reasonably priced, and overall easy to work with. I will only go back to Charlie anytime I have an issue with my car!!Thanks so much.Service: Check engine light diagnostic
