My go to for everything car related from now on and highly recommend Hi Tech to others. Hutch serviced my car and was extremely honest and straightforward. He showed me images of everything that needed to be fixed and did an incredible job. Thank you guys so much!!

They took really good car of my car and my wallet. They got my Fiat 500 rear running light operational (replaced a stripped out screw, and got a wayward running light out of the place where I accidentally had put it in the front (loose in the housing). They explained in detail, and showed me what would need to be done to get the front one operational. And they got my car diagnosed surprisingly fast. ( It's also just really nice that They ARE COMPLETELY COMFORTABLE WITH FIAT 500'S (Which is great, and rarer then you would think). and ofcourse there were a number of other vehicles of various makes and models there as well.

So friendly & respectful. As the kid of a mechanic I was taught early what reliable service means and these folks have my trust.

I can not say enough good things about Hi Tech. They are knowledgable, fair, understanding + compassionate. They give mechanics a good name. Always willing to take a look, always willing to try, they explain issues + are just so helpful. As long as I live here I will not go to another mechanic. Can't recommend them enough.

These guys are awesome! I needed a battery and some other work done and they got me in right away same day. They kept me informed and updated throughout the whole process and were very transparent about pricing, which ended up being a super reasonable cost in the end. Along with that, staff was incredibly friendly and genuine! They truly saved me on such short notice. I also got a complimentary car wash and they have a lovely covered waiting area with misting 🤩 can’t recommend this team enough!

Good prices, helpful people. Checked 3 places for tire quotes and theres was by far the cheapest and they gave me an itemized breakdown. HiTech gets the job done 👍

The Best place to fix your car bumper to bumper

Always a great experience. Yes it’s pricey but you know they stand by their work and they’re trustworthy.

Simply the best!

The five star reviews are correct! I was visiting from the Bay Area for the holidays and my engine died. They were able to find a replacement quickly and got it installed fast. They were honest and straight forward about the process and the cost. They called me and kept me up to date on the process. Art and Hutch were super friendly and helpful! Absolutely recommend these guys!!

Been coming here for all the family vehicles for decades

Extremely professional! I couldn't find a place to fix my A/C and heater and they did it in no time. Great service, fast, and Koko, Hutch and all the staff were very friendly, helpful and kind.

Nov 06, 2023

Good guys whenever I come in. They’re trying to keep my car alive as much as I am.

Good service, good prices

I brought my vehicle in for an oil change and to get my brakes replaced. A few hours later, I received a call saying I needed $4,000 in repairs. Worried about being fleeced, I asked which repairs were a safety concern, as I was about to take a cross-country road trip. All of them. I went ahead with the repairs, as I didn't want major car issues on a road trip. And considering this place's high rating, I thought they'd be trustworthy. Since then, my brake pads have been burning rubber as they were incorrectly installed. I guess my instinct of being scammed out of $4,000 was correct. Don't come here. Don't give this shop your hard-earned money. As you can see in the photo, the rotor is completely rusted. It's like this on all 4. Don't let this shop scam you out of thousands like they did to me.

I cannot say enough good things about the team at Hi Tech Auto. They were fast, did excellent work, and even sent my fiance's car off to get detailed. They went above and beyond, and were so friendly and courteous through the entire process.

I have been going to hi-tech for the past five years. I'll start off with the positives, the staff has always been super friendly and informative, and they do a very professional job. The place is really fast and also very organized, they keep you in the loop with what they're working on throughout the day, which is great! That being said I also have some ambivalence about working with them as well. They really don't wanna let you get out of the door without spending at least $2,000... I can't help but feel like they're pushing the up-sell super hard, finding tons of things that "absolutely need to be done" and are very convincing too. For instance, I recently went in to get a headlamp replaced, and a tire monitoring sensor reset. They called me, after checking out the car, which has been driving great, to try to get me to do almost 2k worth of other things, including telling me my tires (that i had just fully replaced with them one year ago) are all bad and need to be replaced. I'm sure some of the things are legitimate of course, but i also had this happen to me with them about a year ago, and ended up spending $2,700 with them to do a ton of stuff that they told me the car needed. Anyways, I ended up spending $1500, and they didn't even remember to reset the sensor. My partner has also had similar experiences, for instance getting $4,000 of work done on his car, and getting it back with the alignment off to a comical degree, he had to bring it back. I feel like if you're not super knowledgable about cars, you can be strongly guided to spend a lot more here than is really necessary, so just keep that in mind.

I take a couple of enthusiast cars to Hi Tech and the service there is always great. Koko and his team are experts in all things European enthusiast especially. Trustworthy, quality work.

Nov 06, 2023

Koko and his crew have been looking after my four-wheeled friends for over 30 years. You can always rely on the service and the backup, a rarity in this burg. In a town that requires a car you can rest assured that you and the car will be well taken care of.

My car had a mystery issue - it kept randomly stalling. Hutch and everyone worked super hard to find out the issue with my car. They found something and she has been running great ever since. I am super appreciative of how thorough they were and how they kept informed through the process. I love these guys and they have helped me so much over the years with my car.

Nov 06, 2023

My family has been coming here 30 years. Great place!

Overtightened drain plug and oil filter to the point of absurdity on a car I bought

Scammers! Do not trust this business with your car! I took my 2019 truck there for a simple brake job because they had decent reviews and are located close to my office. After dropping my truck with them, Art the manager called me with a nearly $3000 quote that included motion sensor rat traps being installed all over my truck. I told him I just needed my brakes done which brought us down to $2k which at that point I didn’t feel comfortable with his pushiness. I told him I would pass and I would come pick up my truck to which he replied that he could do the brakes for $1200 but couldn’t guarantee the safety of the job at that price. This felt even more shady so I told him I was not interested. He said he would email me the quote so that I could look over. I received the email, the quote had a signature section for me to sign and authorize the work. I did not do so and I replied to the email saying i do not authorize any work to my vehicle, I am on my way to pick up. When I arrived 15 mins later, Art and the team had my truck lifted and had already started the work on my truck. When I asked him what he was doing, he said he was confused and thought I wanted the work to be done. I told him absolutely not and i wanted my truck put back together immediately. I then had to watch closely to make sure nothing was done to my truck in the process, which how can I be certain. Awful way of doing business. If I hadn’t arrived as quick as I did, I’m sure they were trying to get the work done so that they could force me to pay their astronomical quote. Do not bother even having these people look at your vehicle. They are scammers through and through. *Edit* I took my truck to a different mechanic and they fixed everything for $591 compared to Hi Tech’s $3k quote.

The best! Super professional and friendly and great prices. I took my car to a few other shops to compare and hi tech was the fairest

Nov 06, 2023

The staff and service is great. Hutch Got my car back same day. Appreciate how fast they work.

Nov 06, 2023

we bought a car and needed a second opinion immediately - they made the time to do so, gave us a really detailed breakdown of the problems and didn’t even charge us. Will be forever customers here!!!

Nov 05, 2022

Been coming here for years. They've always been great communicators, everyone hustles all the time, they're transparent with information, and the work is solid.

Nov 05, 2022

Only high quality shop left around my area now. I'd drive any distance for honest work, I'm lucky I don't have to go far. Thank you

Nov 05, 2022

Clean shop, employees appear engaged and happy. I felt listened to by the management there. The fact that my car was washed when I picked it up was the cherry on top. I will be returning for future maintenance and repair work.

Nov 05, 2022

Fast, professional service. Didn't try to upsell me on anything. They also have a cute little covered patio area where you can wait if the repair is a quick one. I felt a little embarrassed that my car was relatively old and gross compared to what else was on the lot, but they treated it really well!

Nov 05, 2022

Great friend of mine I have been knowing owner for over 20 yrs. He very professional. There's nothing they can't fix.

Nov 05, 2022

We've used the same mechanic for several years. The owner sold and the quality of work went down hill. Someone recommended Hi Tech and it was a great move! We have 2 Toyota 4Runners both 2000. Problems the last mechanic couldn't or wouldn't take care of (after having the vehicle for a week) we repaired and resolved in a day. I couldn't be more satisfied! The owners and mechanics are so helpful and easy to work with. I HIGHLY recommend Hi Tech Automotive!
