These guys are a lifesaver. Super professional and quick. I took my Honda to the dealership but they said I didnt need an oil change/service. Boy, were they wrong! Dragonfly let me know everything going on with my car. It is running good as new. Thanks again guys!!! HIGHLY recommend 😊

I recently visited PB Certified for an oil change, and I am extremely pleased with the service I received. Brittany and Jim were both incredibly professional and friendly. They not only performed the oil change efficiently but also identified and fixed an additional issue in the car salon for a very fair price. I highly recommend PB Certified to anyone in need of car maintenance.

PB Certified Auto is simply the best spot to go for car trouble if you live in San Diego. Elizabeth could not have been more kind when I came in to get help with my timing belt this week. The issue was fixed faster, and cheaper, than what I was quoted by nearby competitors. This place is awesome!

Honest and very nice people and I am a former mechanic good luck finding that in a repair shop.

I love PB Certified! I started bringing my vehicles here a couple of years ago. They are so friendly and very knowledgeable when it comes to diagnosing and repairing. This shop is at the top of my recommendation list. The pricing is very fair and the work is top quality. I will be bringing all my vehicles here until they close their doors.

Like a lot of people my catalytic converter was stolen. This shop gave me a more than a fair price to get it fixed. The staff was kind, courteous, and bent over backwards to help me out. They were excellent at communicating and worked extremely hard to help get my insurance claim filed. I will 10000% be back! Thank You!!!!

Honest mom and pop auto shop.

I’ve been going to PB Certified for over 20 years and they are simply the greatest! Steve & Liz are the friendliest, most knowledgeable, kind, & efficient people to work with and their crew does an amazing job. Efficient, honest, and friendly! I will keep coming back here for life. Thanks team!

Wow, what fantastic service and the friendliest people! We called over here 20 minutes ago and they told us to come right over. They ran the code on our van and were able to fix it instantly. This did not feel like a regular auto shop where all they want is your money. They were incredibly friendly and so helpful. I will certainly be coming back with any problem that we have! Thanks!!

Steven and Liz are awesome! Over the past 3 years I've been taking my cars to them. They've fixed a starter, and alternator, done a brake job, and even helped with some electrical work on a fuse box. On the latest repair, the alternator, it seemed to work for a couple of days, but then the battery died. They took back in, updated a wiring harness that was noted in a TSB, and ultimately traced it to a bad alternator and replaced it under warranty. I've found them to be more than honest and pricing fair, which unfortunately is not common in mechanics these days.

This is the only place in Pacific Beach to have your car serviced.

Great shop! Really friendly and very willing to help out. We needed the lug nuts on our tires loosened and they were happy to help. Will start going to them from now on.

Phenomenal. A local Franchise offer their services for $1100...…...PB Certified Auto completed for $303...….Attached are the invoices. .It is a Mom and Pop Shop thus you speak directly w/ the owners. Upon the completing the repairs, they displayed the part replaced, thus obviously broken. I will use their services for Oil Changes and etc. I meant to ask if he works on Motorcycles.

What are trust and quality worth to you? Was referred to PB Certified when I had a 4wd sensor issue with an old Explorer. I've long since gotten rid of that car, and moved to a much less convenient location (I used to live around the corner), but PB Certified is still my go-to for the basics (oil changes) and the more advanced. It's not Jiffy Lube, so you're better off making an appointment, but regardless, give them a call and it'll be time (and money), well spent.

Always treated my 82 vanagon with kindness and care, as if it were their own vehicle. Steve Q was also very kind to me when I needed a neighborly favor. Great people and longtime PB locals running this trustworthy shop. Recommended. 👍🏻

PB certified auto is fantastic. It's so hard to find a mechanic you can trust, but look no further than here. I've searched and searched, and never felt more comfortable with a mechanic. The owners are fantastic. They're friendly and knowledgeable. It's the only time I've ever left a mechanic not feeling dumb and ripped off. They work on most makes and models. Their prices are fair, and did I mention they're friendly? They're super friendly. If you're looking for a mechanic your search is over!

Steve and Elizabeth has taken great care of our daughter's car which we as parents greatly appreciate. They watch out for her as well!! So lucky that she found them via the great Yelp reviews. Five star service for sure!

Nov 19, 2018

These guys couldn't have been more professional and polite. I'll be back for sure. Thanks guys!

Awesome and knowledgeable staff, eager to help.

The only place I take my car. Best SERVICE!

Stay away unless you want your vehicle to be a full-employment opportunity for this shop. I took my diesel in with an oil leak. They called back and said the glow plug relay had mysteriously died. It had worked fine when I drove it there. After they replaced the relay, they called and said the batteries were dead and needed to be replaced. I questioned that and took the batteries out, recharged them and they still work fine. Then they were going to repair the oil leak. After I paid for that I drove away and found the oil leak an order of magnitude worse. They informed they had identified another source, but they could repair that for another fee. I had the same experience with Boulevard on Turquoise. You take your vehicle in for a specific repair, and other problems magically appear. Unless you like to waste money, find another shop.

Very nice people and great customer service you going to love this place!!!
