I don't know the owner's name but he came out and looked at the vehicle, took it for a drive and talked to us for a half hour+. The only thing our vehicle needed was something that he doesn't do (an alignment).
:) We laughed and smiled about how he describes auto symptoms. If you live close I'd recommend visiting him if possible instead of using the phone. You'd get more out of it, no doubt!

I was just passing through, stopped for a minute, and my car wouldn't start. (Barstow issues) I called Mario at Caseys 2 and they fixed me up, talked to me like a friend, and didnt charge a dime more than he said. Enriquo was knowledgeable and friendly. Couldn't reccomend them more highly..
Shout out to Pollo!!!

Wow, there isn't nearly enough nice things I could say about Casey and his shop. My husband trusted his friend to fix a cylinder misfire on our jeep and he broke the intake manifold in the process. We live on the army post Fort Irwin and had to tow the car 30+ miles to Barstow. We called Casey before from a few mechanic listings and he stood out the most to us because he was very polite and knowledgable about what happened with just our phone call. When my husband got there he took the car in right away and turned a 2 day job into a priority that took him the whole day to finish. Superb work and he gave us a very generous price for the job. I am so incredibly grateful, the jeep is the only car we have for our family of three and times are tight. I can honestly say he's one of the few honest mechanics I have met in years and I would recommend him to anyone. Great job, thank you Casey!

Went in for a jeep clutch install and oil change. Really helpful and worked with my schedule. Good price. It's been over month and I have not driven my jeep much at all. Started getting odd noises from under my feet. The mechanic did not bolt everything back on. Nuts were just placed on bolts on my support/ rock guard.
Make sure you fully check the work before you leave, even the small stuff like bolts and nuts!

Fall 2014- Started out great. Casey seemed friendly, confident, and knowledgeable in fixing our 2007 Honda Accord V6 that needed major transmission repair/fix. Which is great since I live in the OC, and my dad lives in Barstow. Not a lot of options when I live over an hour away.
After dropping it off he said in the next day or so he would finish a Kia so the Accord could take up a lift.
He said he would contact us as soon as the transmission was at his tranny shop for a rebuild (all new apparently) to let us know a more solid price, as we were told 2500-2850 no greater than 3000.
After a week and a half of no phone calls or communication, I called several times. The phone rings and goes to unset up voicemail.
I sent my dad to stop by, was told a week after that. Attempted to call again by that time. No response. Sent my brother this time. Thursday if that week.
I called on Thursday.
Finally got ahold of him (via I assume his GF) who had difficulty relaying information to us. My mom (her car) answered and demanded that we speak to him, he later called back.
He was aggressive, confrontational, and disrespectful to my mother. Her tone can be stern, but her words were appropriate. She was asking for an update, and began telling her how every time we try to get ahold of him or get an update it delays his work by days. His temper got the best of him and he said hell throw in the old tranny if it suits her better. She asked about the price and he stated "price us unchanged". He originally gave us a range... 2500-3000 is a big range, and 500$ can really break the bank... He said a week from that phone call the car would be done.
I try to call again (a week later on a Friday) and I get his GF again, and were told it would be ready Monday..
I'm pretty pissed at this point. I drive down to Barstow and wait. And wait. And wait. God forbid I call him and it delays the repairs another month.
I just show up, and guess what, cars not done! Come back tomorrow he says. I do that.
I get a call that day and yes its done. 2850. Good thing I broke the bank to get 3000.
So there's oil all over the trunk. That sucks.
Driving it home the airbag light is on. WTH?
Trying to use the horn. No horn???? Nothing on the steering wheel is working.. Did my research online and the internal clock spring may be broken.
I take it back right away and drop it off with him. He says to go have lunch and hell see what's up with it. I do so, and come back two hours later. I walk up to it and the whole steering column is disassembled. He walks over and says it'll be longer, "come back later". I know his shop closes around 5/6 so I made an effort to stop by at 4:30.
I walk up... And it looks the exact same as before. I'm standing directly next to my car, and I'm trying to see where everyone is. Casey plus two other mechanics are on the hood of another car in front of NY car in the shop. They keep making eye contact but won't awknoledge me..
" Hi, Casey?"
No response. I start to count the minutes as I stare at them, beyond belief how effing retarded this has become. 34 minutes by my watch before Casey walks past me and says the other guys are working on your clock spring.
I then wait. And wait. And wait. I had a good chance to look at the shop and its a disgrace. Tools everywhere. Unorganized, and I'm pretty sure its not up to OSHA standards. I seriously wouldn't be surprised is some part or tool caught fire, unless its a normal occurrence and happens daily. I think there's more of a chance of a fire starting than a storm tripper missing its target or a red shirt dying on an away team.
2 hours. 10 minutes later. A nameless grunt comes and speaks to me, tells me they have to order a part from Honda and I need to come back tomorrow.

What ever.
I get a call, cars done. I go pick it up. It drives. Everything works as far as I can tell. I need to have priests of every religion bless this car because I would rather fight a Rancor naked with no weapons than EVER come back to this shop for any reason. You couldn't dangle "Free lifetime In N out with every new repair" in front if my face. I choose a life with out In n out!!!
But, I MUST leave with one positive. I drove the car to Denver two weeks later and I had no transmission problems. I'm sure there's some duct tape and left over tools inside of there to keep it going for a while.
Update: 3/7/15 Car is still driving but had timing belt done and a few other parts replaced. Mechanic walked me through a few of the transmission "repairs" and things were left out, not bolted or screwed down, and there was a small tool left in the engine. I had those things fixed up, but thinking back so many terrible things could of happened to me while driving it.

Story of every Vegas road trip... car trouble!!! After being towed to the middle no where and dropped off at a classy motel 6 ... (sighhhh) We woke up and ventured out to Caseys Auto Repair...closed. So we drove down the road to find another shop and stumbled upon Caseys 2...with doors wide open!!!!! Mario greeted us and went above and beyond to look at car right away, and when wasnt looking like a quick fix set us up with a rental to get us on the road as fast as possible!! We are so grateful for his help and would honestly make the two hour drive just to get future auto care done by him!! Thanks so much Mario!!

Wednesday, March 11, 2015... Our visit started out great. Casey seemed friendly and eager to help us fix our 2012 Dodge Durango. He said it needed a new water pump. Trusting him we allowed him to order the pump and he told us to come back at 8am 2 days later on a Friday.
We arrived promptly at 8am Friday morning and to our surprise his shop was still closed. Thinking he was running late we waited patiently until 830. We then started calling and knocking on the door for another hour. By 930 it was obvious that no one was opening up anytime soon.
We called American Tire Depot and they told us to bring it right down. We dropped it off at 945 and to our surprise they took our Durango in immediately and began working on it. We were dumbfounded as to why Casey told us it would be 2 days to get the water pump and Mike at American Tire Depot got the part in less than an hour and cheaper than what Casey quoted us.
If I could give this shop zero stars I would! They were very unprofessional and high priced... I wonder what this schmuck needed extra cash for? I wish I had more hands so I could give this shop 4 thumbs down!!!
Avoid this shop and take it to American Tire Depot and Automotive... Tell em Large Marge sent ya! :)

The BEST automotive shop in town to fix your car, truck, and even diesel. They do excellent work, and very knowledgeable mechanics. They have gotten me out of several sticky spots with my Honda (yea I know not a surprise) when in doubt about your vehicle either traveling through barstow or a local give Casey's Automotive a shot you won't be disappointed.

Casey helped us out of a bad situation. Our land rover, Salty, who likes to break when it is not convenient, decided to act like a jerk when we were driving through Barstow. Luckily, we limped to Autozone in Barstow, got a very nice man (the store manager, Corey, i think) to recommend us to Casey. Fortunately he was open and was the best thing to happen to us out in the desert.
Our spark plug wires were all messed up and we weren't going anywhere. Casey wasn't able to get the wires to replace them but was able to repair them on the spot. Honest, nice, inexpensive and fast! These are not adjectives usually used in the same sentence as anything Land Rover, sadly.
I cannot thank Casey enough for getting my baby out of the 108 degree heat as fast as possible. If you are having car trouble anywhere near Barstow, go see Casey, he'll take care of you!
Thanks Casey!!

We were on our way home to Albuquerque from Anaheim when my alternator went out just outside of Barstow, Ca. I went to Casey's Automotive Services 2 and Mario was amazing. He stopped what he was working on to try and fix my car. We found out that not only did the alternator go bad but it fried my computer. He took the time to take me and my family to a hotel for the night. Because he couldn't get the part until the middle of the next week and I had to get home but couldn't rent a car lent me one of the shop cars so I was able to go home. It was not a fun experience but Mario at least made it workable. If I lived in Barstow he would be my regular mechanic without any questions.

I'm on my way to a backpacking trip in Death Valley. As I approached Barstow last night, I started to hear a whine/chirping sound coming from my 4Runner. It was a mystery sound that has been occurring on-and-off for 6 months. I stayed in Barstow overnight, looked at Yelp reviews, and decided to go To Casey's. I was extremely worried that it was a problem with a U-joint or something on the drive train. I was expecting it to be an expensive repair. When I showed up, I explained the problem to him, and he took it out for a test drive to hear the sound, and inspect the vehicle. He came back and told me what it was a minor issue, and explained it in detail. He was very patient with all of my questions.
He was a great guy and I'll definitely stop by in the future!

Stayed the night in Casey's parking lot, broken down on the road, Sunday night, you've probably been here before. Waited an hour past opening and only a mechanic with no key showed up on time. We spoke with him , he spoke with Casey when he finally showed and he said he would be glad to help us in only 3 days time. Didn't have the courtesy to even speak with us. Can't speak to his mechanical abilities as we never had the opportunity. Customer service was non-existent.

Extremely satisfied, not only with the service, but as well as the price. Called my home mechanic and he said that the quoted price was great for the time I needed the service done (same day) and because of where we are. I was definitely not ripped off, and they explained it really well.

Stopped in at Casey's Auto Service because we were having problems with our motorhome (pretty sure it needed a new distributor). The only reason I give them 4 stars and not 5 is because the shop was closed when it was supposed to be open and we were in a hurry since when we were scheduled to be somewhere. However, once the owner showed up, he sent us to his other shop Casey's II and the mechanic there got us in very quickly, even though he was pretty busy, fixed the problem without trying to convince us to other work done that didn't need to be done (which happens at some shops) and charged a very reasonable amount to fix the problem and get us back on the road. I didn't get the guys name, but he was very knowledgeable, quick, fair and friendly. I would give Casey's II a great review, but couldn't find them on Yelp, so I put it here. If you have car issues, I would definitely recommend these guys.

I was referred to Casey's after calling a competitor of theirs that no longer has a branch in Barstow when the transmission in my Ford Ranger went out between Vegas and Barstow during our move from southeast Iowa to southern California. I had the bed and a trailer loaded with all of our belongings. They stored the trailer for me in a secured location and had my truck back together in a couple days. Mario at Casey's 2 was very knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you!

The best mechanic in Barstow! When my transmission failed stranding us in Barstow hundreds of miles from home Casey went above and beyond to get a new hard to find transmission quickly and replace it before the weekend and get us back on the road. They did not take advantage of our situation with the price either and worked to get us a good deal on parts and labor and didn't charge more than their initial estimate. Other shops said they would have to wait until Monday to start looking at the car then it would be several days until the part arrived, and a few more days until the work was complete, if all went well for a much higher estimate. We could have been stranded for a couple of weeks in hotels away from work, but Casey got us back on the road and home fast! The car still runs great. Don't hesitate to bring your car to Casey.
