I went in for shocks and $3400 later, I left with the undercarriage frame in pieces, 2 bald tires, and an odometer that had gone backwards. We go to mechanics who value safety, not that try to break our car just because they are very close to a chop shop.

Great repair shop, have been going here for years. Knowledgeable, friendly, and communicative. James and gang are the best.


Oct 18, 2024

Needed a oil change. Called and talked to James. Scheduled me a 9:30 appointment. Great service.


Oct 18, 2024

Robert’s Auto was a great shop! Excellent customer service. I worked with James and he was very helpful and kind. I definitely recommend going here for your auto service needs


Oct 18, 2024

Wonderful service , excellent job on all my cars throughout the years. Been taking my cars to them since the early 1980’s. They are honest and don’t try to push me to do things all at once.


Sep 18, 2024

Every time I visit Robert's Auto Service I am confident the service will be performed as promised, recently by Joel and Chuy. Also the service reps James and Christian are very knowledgeable and helpful. They also provide a pick up service by Brayden (sp?) who is a safe driver with a nice personality. Thanks to all!


Sep 18, 2024

Honest and upfront. They suggested that I go somewhere else to save time and money

Recommended here by a friend. Twice they tried to charge more than what they said. They doubled the diagnostic fee from what they said. They also said that there would not be a diagnostic fee if I had the repair done with them, which I did, but they charged it anyways. My friend says that they always drop the diagnostic fee for him when they do the repair; regardless, we asked and were told that they do so but they didn't They did not call with an update when they said they would. I called and was told that the part did not come in that day and that it would be done the next day. About 2 hours later it was done. Obviously the car was being worked on at the time I was told the part had not come in and the person I was speaking with did not know that or did not bother to check --> confusion. While it was nice that it was done, that was not helpful since I had made plans for the rest of the day because of the earlier statement that the part had not come in with their day's delivery, so I could not get it until the next day anyways I don't plan to come back here. And I don't plan to ask this friend for car repair guidance again

Robert’s is by far the best mechanic. They are honest, quick, super friendly AND affordable! I’ve gotten 2 of my cars fixed there and absolutely loved the service! Won’t go to anyone else! A++++


Aug 18, 2024

Another great experience with the crew over at Robert’s Auto Service! Highly recommend!!


Aug 18, 2024

Robert kept me informed of the status of the repairs. I found them to be very open and interested in making sure I qas completely satisfied.


Aug 18, 2024

Robert's has serviced my cars for years and I have always appreciated their trustworthy, warm, professional service!


Jul 18, 2024

GREAT SERVICE, AS ALWAYS! This is my third time here, and it has been five stars for every visit. This visit I was doing my summer maintenance oil change, tire rotation, and 40 point inspection. I was told my shocks were leaking just a little bit, but if I did not have the money at this time, it was not an urgent matter. Any other place would have told me I need them right away, just to get more money. This is what I love about this place, they have told me parts and services I didn’t need, that I thought I did, in the past. It just shows how wonderful they are as a family ran business.


Jul 18, 2024

Robert's has been taking care of my cars for about thirty years. It always seems as if I'm going in to see family. The consideration and friendly treatment and superior service is something you just don''t expect to receive in this era of big business. I don't know what I'd do without them.


Jul 18, 2024

Roberts has been keeping all four of our family cars in excellent condition for over 15 years. Their mechanics are experts, they have fair pricing and are trustworthy. I especially appreciate their ability to provide accurate diagnostics. Everyone who works there is super friendly and easy to talk to. They are great at explaining concerns in layman’s terms when discussing repair options. I highly recommend Roberts Automotive.


Jul 18, 2024

Roberts team got me quick and did a great job. They came recommended by a friend of mine and now it’s time for me to recommend them to you. Great shop, found out they’ve been serving the community since the 1960’s


Jul 18, 2024

These guys have always been amazing. No pressure and do a great job.


Jun 18, 2024

Always very honest about my car. Very fair. Very friendly and helpful. Providing ride service a big plus.


Jun 18, 2024

Amazing service. They definitely do a great job. We’ve been going there for about 3 years now and they never disappoint. You get more than a bargain. Price is reasonable. But most of all we have never left there disappointed and that’s worth every penny. We live about an hour and a half away in Julian and if we can we will bring our cars all the way to Robert’s. So that’s saying a lot.


Jun 18, 2024

Have had my vehicle serviced by the guys at Robert's Auto shop for several years now, and they never disappoint. Because of them, my nearly 20 y.o. SUV conts to get the same mileage/per gallon as when I bought it new! James is always patient to explain and answer any questions I have. You guys are the best!


Jun 18, 2024

On my trip this weekend my car started making a loud screeching noise. I called the shop first thing in the morning and was able to get my car in for same day! Thankfully my car is fine but knowing how much time they put into making sure my car was safe was the best thing!


Jun 18, 2024

Robert’s Auto Service was so quick and helpful fixing my car. They ran a few tests to see what was wrong and had it fixed within 48 hours. James was so helpful in communicating and keeping me updated with the whole process!


Jun 18, 2024

These guys are great ! Honest, friendly & quick to get your car back !


May 18, 2024

Best HONEST mechanic in San Diego! I trust Robert’s to always give me options and tell me the truth!


May 18, 2024

Competent work done in reasonable time


May 18, 2024

Everyone was very patient and professional. I trusted their judgement. They kept me informed and finished the work ahead of time.


May 18, 2024

Excellent customer service! Didn’t try to sell me extra services. Explained everything that needed to be done. Definitely my new car service place. Thanks James!


May 18, 2024

Good customer service. Extremely expensive. Rating would be higher if cost of service was lower.


May 18, 2024

Great customer service, very trustworthy! It’s hard to trust car repair companies but I totally trust Robert’s Auto service. They explain any necessary repairs , are friendly and honest


May 18, 2024

Had an oil leak on Toyota Tundra after changing oil myself. Apparently, the dealer in Texas who changed the oil before me had cross-threaded the plastic oil filter cover. It was extremely difficult to remove, and seems to have cracked in the process of removal/replacement. Took the vehicle to Robert's as I did not want to redo the job myself and get oil on my driveway. They replaced the cover (and filter) and cleaned up the mess. Aside from the usual sticker shock for labor and marked-up already overpriced dealer part, there was something I asked for but did not receive. I wanted full documentation of the issue with the cover, so that I could bring it up with the dealer. Had this happened, I might have been able to recoup some of the cost of putting it back the way it should be. Edit: I was later able to get reimbursed by the dealer for most of the cost,, with the exception of 2 quarts of oil I had provided to Robert's Auto.


May 18, 2024

I will be taking my Jeep here from now on. The staff is knowledgeable and communicative. They take amazing care of their customers and do great work! Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for trustworthy mechanics! Thank you everyone at Robert's for taking such great care of my Jeep!


May 18, 2024

Robert's is my go-to auto mechanic shop. James and the team always do a stellar job and I appreciate that they are transparent about the services they are providing and the associated costs. They are also very efficient and respectful of their customers' time.


May 18, 2024

They can't hear my rear squeeky brakes. Over night, still could not hear it. Hmmm?
