He and his friend kept lieing to me so I would pay them to get my car smoged from them I dident take my car there I just went to ask questions about a catalytic converter i needed and they tried to get to bring my car like they couldent give me the information without it. Then they lied to to me saying they pass smog for $60 without me needing one and that if it dident pass I wouldent have to pay. Then I brought my car so I could get it done. They tried to get me to drive up on the lift I turned i dident and parked got out of my car and talked to the guy he said him and his friend dident say any of that. He said 180 for the part 60 for the smog and that it would be even more for the correct one and he wouldent pass it without the correct sticker one wich he said he dident know and couldent look up til I come again tomorrow obviously because they dident have time to get to trick me into having them do it since it was too late til closing telling me the machines off. Which he said any would work to pass before hate that place trying to play be for dumb I feel sorry for the people this works on.

Just install my new N1 exhaust for my Jetta mk4, he charged me $85 which I felt like he was a bit overcharged me but I can see he did a great job on it, but he didn't lift my car again to check if there's leaking or not. He also wanted to persuade me to buy a better magflow muffler for only $150 but since I just paid my trip field fee so I did not want to buy.

Excellent service and very friendly. I was also surprised at the reasonable price. I will recommend this auto mechanic to every one of my family and friends. They took care of the oil change, smog check and wheel alignments as well. I like this guy because he was very honest. Sam from Norhridge.

Came here to fix an exhaust leak. Staff was knowledgeable and fair. Was expecting them to just take a look at it since they were closing within the hour but they fixed the leak and were able to adjust the exhaust piping (at my request) to avoid future damage. The welds weren't beautiful but they were solid.

My tire caught a nail. I came to this shop because of the good reviews. Turns out they don't know how to change a tire. Two guys spent an hour trying to change and inflate a 205/55r16 Toyota Corolla tire on a stock Toyota wheel. Frustrated, I asked one of the guys what what going on the guy said they didn't have the tools to inflate the tire. What kind of tire shop can't change a damn tire? Nothing against the guys they tried their best with that they had. I finally got tired and took my money down the street to just tires.

I was in a rush to get some work sone on my BMW on a Saturday afternoon. Was running out of options and I read the reviews here. Mario took care of me and worked on my muffler very efficiently. It was done in less than half the time other shops quoted me.

Excellent service. They detected the issue with my car in less than 5 minutes and got the repair done in roughly 45 minutes. Highly recommended for muffler and catalytic replacements

My car had failed it's smog because of the check engine light, which read a problem with the oxygen sensor. I called two other places to get estimates, and they both said they would charge a $100 diagnostic fee, and when I asked how much it would be it my specific sensor had to be replaced, they estimated $150 and $250! When I called this place the guy said it depended, but he actually went through and told me about how much he thought each component might cost (parts, labor, etc.). Best of all he wasn't trying to force a huge fee just to look at my car. Honest communication about prices is great!
So I came over and he did the repair, and it came out to $76 for the part, $30 for the labor, which made it $113 with tax. I looked up the part, and they charged me around the normal retail value.
They have a nice large waiting area with couches, a TV and magazines. Overall I'm very happy with the experience I had here.

Great service. Fast and good prices. Been here twice and it's been a great service both times. They also called me frequently with updates and to check if it was ok to change things.
