Number 1 shop in San Diego they have the best customer service and mechanics. Much Respect ✊🏿

Now I see why so many neighbors say good things about this shop. I stopped by with a minor issue and despite the place being obviously very busy Sam took a few minutes out of his day to help me out with a quick fix. I can tell by the way he handled it he's a solid mechanic and a nice guy. Next time I need something more serious done on my car, I'll be heading there. I have no doubt they'll continue to earn my business.

There’s a saying… you can never trust a mechanic. Well, that phrase exists because of this place. I wish I could say that this is on me or I was being cheap or something but honestly, there is zero fault on my end. It’s also common knowledge that dealerships are bigger scammers than independent mechanics which is why I refused to pay $599 for brake pads and installation. That is just highway robbery. I figured I’d do myself the favor and buy my $100 brake pads and keep it local and then pay $100 to have them installed. Simple right? Naturally, as I drive off from the mechanic shop, my brakes are already squeaking. Mind you, this isn’t uncommon with new brake pads but it’s also not normal. Sometimes they just have to “brake” in. Pun intended. But after a week I called the shop and told them the news. They said they’d take a look. I roll up and tell them again only to be told that there’s nothing they can do about it. What it seems like happened is that they snatched my new brake pads and didn’t even replace them. So I now need to find another shop, see what the problem is, dish out more money, and pretty much back to square one. I still wouldn’t recommend anyone going to the dealership for all this but I would definitely steer clear of this scam factory! Staff. Trash. Quality. Trash. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

A business that cares about customer satisfaction

Great people and shop. They don't try to rob you for your money by saying there is more going on than is with your vechicle. Always honest and accomodating.

This shop has one of the best customer services I've experienced. They truly care about their customers. As a lady, I'm always concerned if I'm being ripped off when getting any car work done, but not here -- I'm always satisfied with their experienced work.

The best mechanics you can trust. And they do excellent job , with affordable pricing & they did explain to me everyth . Plus show the old parts even offered me to take it i want. I am in peace with them. I also bought my car from them in 2020. Which I was so blessed by it. And my car was ruined by the flood in January.2024. Water entered the engine & how they saved it for me , as a single mom I can’t afford a new car Mesfun & Sam advices us to replace the engine & they did …. The car is working as new & they saved me. all the workers with them are also amazing. They are a hero indeed I highly recommend them , ask for Mesfun & Sam you will not be disappointed

1st time using them today. My old mechanix by them is retiring and met Mesfun one of the owners who let me know why his shop was closed. Got my oil changed for only 10 more than he charged good price. They also informed me my timing belt cover gasket is leaking and its common on my 4th gen 4 cylinder camry. Now i know why I have to add oil so much and also i noticed coolant lately i have to add which before i didnt. Once i fix this I shouldnt have to anymore! My previous mechanic never told me this. Highly recommend! Ask for Sam or Mesfun!

Excellent work in very good timing and very affordable I highly recommend them for breaks for any car

Great experience. Had a complete break system failure. Called these guys and told me to bring it in on a Friday. Everyone is top notch and good people. Had me in and out within 6 hours. Showed me everything they did even showed me the old parts they took out. Price was good too. Would definitely recommend.

I appreciate everyone that works in this mechanic shop. They are honest, friendly, fast and reliable. They helped me fix my check engine light in order to complete the smog check. I highly recommend them. Thank you for everything.

I bought a 2005 Buick has transmission leak and many other problems. Got them done in three days and car is running great. Friendly people not pushy and no extra unnecessary work was ever recommended. Also not afraid to tell me what it might cost before they started looking at it. ***** Update 6/22 they keep exceeding my expectations. I highly recommend.****
