The German Auto Center has once again provided great customer service! My car was experience a slow crank to start and with a short trip to Julian upcoming within 24 hours had replaced my battery, provided an oil/filter change and done a diagnosis on our 16 year old MB C300. The car ran like new. Thanks German Auto Center, you did it again. Tom

Bert and his team always go above and beyond with their service. When my "new" (new to me) car had a problem, Bert did extensive research. They also diagnosed possible issues before they could become trouble. All this at a fair price.

As always Bert and the crew at The German Auto Center exceeded my expectations on my Audi Q7. Dropped it off at 8:30am brakes were done at 11:30 as promised.

I really needed my brakes fixed and they were fixed in a timely manner. My car is driving much better. I love how they would communicate with me exactly what was wrong with the car and I love that they understood my urgency to doing this in a quickly manner. I only had to keep my car there for 1 night. I appreciate everything at this auto shop and I just add everyone I met from a to z was so friendly and professional.

I recently brought my Mercedes to German Auto Center in San Diego, and I cannot say enough about the exceptional service I received. From the moment I walked in, it was clear that this shop has a deep knowledge and passion for Mercedes vehicles. The team was incredibly professional, and their expertise was immediately apparent. They took the time to thoroughly explain the issues with my car, and their ability to quickly diagnose and address the problem was impressive. Not only did they have a wealth of knowledge specific to my Mercedes, but they also provided honest advice and options to make sure I was comfortable with every decision. What really sets them apart is the level of care and attention to detail they put into their work. I felt like my car was in the hands of true professionals who genuinely care about both the cars they work on and their customers. If you’re looking for a shop that really knows their way around German cars, particularly Mercedes, I highly recommend German Auto Center. They’ve earned my trust, and I’ll definitely be coming back for any future service needs!

I've been going there for a decade or more—fast, efficient service, good communication, and wonderful people.

Aug 22, 2024

I just took my car in to German Auto Center who I feel is one of the more reputable repair shops in the industry. What I recently noticed was how much more efficient the experience is making it so easy to drop off and know when your car will be ready. I've referred them to many and will continue to do so.

I've been a loyal customer of German Auto for the past three years, and they never fail to exceed my expectations. What sets this shop apart is their exceptional customer service, particularly from Heather, who treats you like family from the moment you call to schedule a service. She keeps you updated every step of the way, ensuring you're informed about the service being performed and providing estimates before any work is done. My M3 has been running like a champ thanks to the expertise and care of the team at German Auto. Thank you for consistently going above and beyond!

Heather’s initiative and good attitude were appreciated

Very pleased with their service. Honest, professional and very reasonable. Bert is the best, so knowledgeable and kind. Thank you Bert for all your help.

I can’t recommend these guys enough, they’re super professional and easy to work with and they do a great job. They quickly diagnosed and fixed a fuel leak in my Volkswagen Touareg and communicated clearly the whole way through. I’ll definitely be going back here if I have any future issues

Feb 22, 2024

Pricey, but I feel the job was done right. I usually work on my own cars when I can, and the service manager was very informative about things it needed that I could do. Highly recommend.

Feb 22, 2024

Very professional! They always treat me family, making sure my car is in great condition and taken care of. They don’t try to upsell you like other places do. I’m very happy with their service, pricing and caring attitude. I highly recommend German Auto Center !!

Great service and very responsive. I hopped into my car and she had a new kick! Haha.

Dec 22, 2023

Great people and very knowledgeable I would recommend 100 percent

Nov 22, 2023

1st time using this auto center. Was looking for some place new to service our 2000 Mercedes E55. The service representative, Bert, was extremely knowledgeable about our vehicle. Thought the ABS and brake assist malfunctions we were seeing were going to be an expensive front brake repair. It turned out just to be a bad battery. Brakes were fine. They could have easily taken advantage but didn't. Would highly recommend them.

Nov 22, 2023

I took my bmw 328 for a simple repair and found out I had other issues and they did a very good job in fixing the problems I will be taking my car In today for a issue I had and they do a great job highly recommended it.

Nov 22, 2023

MB 350 Nav and camera system was totally non-functional and Bert and the crew fixed it! Great service. Hard to get in - you have to wait because they are so popular- but totally worth it. A Point Loma treasure!

Nov 22, 2023

Super kind honest and fair! My always and forever auto center!!

BEST SHOP ON THE WEST COAST, Hands DOWN! I have come to this business TWICE now in dire need of service for my 2006 c280 4matic and they have identified, isolated and serviced my vehicle in a fast, efficient, timely Manner and brought my car back to life using authentic Mercedes Benz parts. This shop has given me more bang for my buck and 100% honesty and clarity of where the problem was, how they intend to remedy it and what my money was getting me. I've gotten my spark plugs, airbag light, emissions and smog test, O2 sensors, complete driveshaft replacement, and fuel pump replaced here. These guys are European car WIZARDS. I am in the Navy and have an unreasonable schedule and they still made time and space for myself and my vehicle. The customer service was 100% amazing, welcoming, family friendly environment with smiles and integrity. Id recommend this shop to anyone in the SoCal area and beyond. I will not be taking my car to anywhere else or future vehicles as long as they are around. Bert and Heather made me feel assured and safe with my car in this shops hands.

Been coming here for service on my A4 for years. They do a great job. I would highly recommend the team at German Auto Center. Communication is great. Service is timely and efficient. No crazy upselling. Prices are fair.

Nov 22, 2023

Bert and Team are the best! They take care of our VW Touareg and plug-in Mini Cooper Countryman. Had to replace the engine in the Cooper due to water damage. We did not think it would be as good as before, but it's as good as new!

Nov 22, 2023

Bert and his team do quality work at fair prices and communicate well

Nov 22, 2023

Called to see if they could fix a older w208 a project car instead of getting a regular reply yes or no, The owner or mechanic just told me how old the car was after I told him a few times the car was a project an not a daily so unprofessional this place. I will take my money elsewhere wanted to get a lot done before I deployed very bad experience with this place.

Nov 22, 2023

Consistently thorough, professional, excellent.

Nov 22, 2023

Great people, great service. Dog friendly, too!

Nov 22, 2023

Great service from Omid as always!!! Thanks!

Nov 22, 2023

I found Bert and his team to be honest, knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly. They were able to accommodate me on very short notice. I was given a detailed description of the work to be done, in advance. The breakdown of services on the invoice was very clear and payment was easily made online. The overall cost for regular service and repairs was reasonable. Now that my Porsche is out of warranty, I’m glad that I’ve found a local and reliable service center. I will definitely be back.

Nov 22, 2023

This place is amazing!! Took my car in for a blown turbo and unfortunately other issues. Excellent service from start to finish, fast turn around, fair pricing. Bert their master mechanic explained every thing to me (more then once because I had a billion questions, lol) and knows his stuff!! Highly recommend!

Nov 22, 2023

Trustworthy, reliable, honest. I’ve had a good amount of work performed here over the past two years. They have been super accommodating when I’ve had special needs, they always shoot it straight, and their prices are competitive for the quality. I highly recommend the whole team at German Auto Center.

Nov 22, 2022

Excellent service-fair pricing-timely turnaround-excellent communication

Nov 22, 2022

German Auto Repair is my only mechanic for my Mercedes Benz CLK 430. They know how to repair it, always get the job accomplished, and at a reasonable cost. I maintain this car so I do not need to repair it and they support my philosophy. Every maintenance receives a full check of all systems and components, so I know when parts are worn out and need replacement. The best for the Benz!

Nov 22, 2022

I took my BMW X5 in and Bert was able to diagnose the problem immediately. He kept me informed along the way & my car has never run better! They were SO accommodating! Way better than the dealership or we’ll known mechanisms who specialize in BMW’s. I highly recommend using German Auto Center in Point Loma! Really Really happy with their work and service!!!!

Nov 22, 2022

Massive shout out to Bert and German Auto Center. I've been taking my families cars to them for year and they always delivered honest and well priced work; but my last visit was so positive, I had to write a review about it. I recently took my car in with a weird shudder that I couldn't pinpoint. A technician went on a test drive with me and couldn't diagnose it either. Bert gave me a few ideas, but didn't charge me anything. After I left, he went on some industry message boards to see if anyone else was experiencing the same thing. He found out that it was a fairly common issue with the transfer case of my model/year car, and that the factory knew about it and extended the warranty on it. Bert didn't stop there, he called the dealer to make sure they could diagnose it and cover it under the extended warranty. It's a few weeks later and I have a new transfer case and it didn't cost me a cent, all because Bert went above and well beyond in helping me out. I'm a customer for life.

Very good place to repair your Mercedes-Benz or a BMW!!!!
