Angel fixed the dreaded disintegrated foam problem in the heat/AC system on our 2001 Eurovan. These guys are the experts. Very professional, friendly and reasonably priced. Five stars.

Nov 22, 2023

Highly recommend! Every experience I’ve had has been very honest, priced right, and helpful with whatever I needed.

I have used Trinidad motors the last few times my Beatle has needed repair and I highly recommend them. They are fair, thorough and do a great job. They fixed the crack in my radiator and repaired some hose leak. The fist time they fixed the leak it actually broke again but they credited me for the labor and put it towards that visit. They prioritized my vehicle and I’m very grateful to have a working car back and a mechanic I trust!

I’ve been bringing my Honda Element and my wife’s VW Golf to Trinidad for a couple years now and I can’t recommend them enough. The quality of service is great, the pricing is very competitive, and the customer service and communication is the best I’ve experienced from an auto repair shop.

Nov 22, 2023

My family n friends all go to Trinidad Motors. Angel n his crew are awesome to work with for all my MBZ care. I highly recommend these guys gif all your auto service needs. 👍👍👍👍👍

Refreshing expierence. Honest assessment of your car trouble. Top grade repairs completed for a fair price. Knowledgeable and courteous staff. They have taken care of my 20 year old VW Toureg and I will continue to use Trinidad Motors. Simply the best!

Nov 22, 2023

Reliable, honest, and they do excellent work

Nov 22, 2023

These guys are top tier! Whether it’s performing maintenance, troubleshooting issues or fixing Dealership negligence. You can count on these guys. Plus, you can’t beat hanging out in OB, while you wait.

Nov 22, 2023

They were able to help me with my VW Jetta and diagnose an airbag light after I worked on my own vehicle. If I need any of my other German cars serviced, I’ll be taking them here in the future. Angel was very knowledgeable, friendly, and nice to talk with. Thanks for the excellent service!

Upon purchasing my vintage jaguar, I asked a friend who owns the same car who he trusts with his exotic/euro cars. Immediately he said "you must go to trinidad motors". I am so glad I did. Upon picking up the car after a brake/rotor replacement, Angel took his time to explain what he would still do in the future for long term health of the car. They are truly honest, and experts on import and he even read my codes and gave me peace of mind that it would currently pass smog as is. I'll be back for the oil change and tune ups as recommended. Give this shop a rev!

Nov 22, 2023

Watch out! Unprofessional, disrespectful and Not trustworthy in my educated and experienced opinion. Feel free to contact me and I will be happy to share my experience with this diablo. Accountability is what I’m after…sir

We have a 1995 Eurovan. Finding an experienced mechanic is a challenge. Angel who has opened Trinidad Motors is a gem. He is the sort of mechanic you want -- fixes what needs to be taken care of and doesn't do the dealer's pitch to try to add on more than is necessary. We hope other Euronvan, Vanagans and Buses head to Trinidad Motors.

Angel and his team are awesome. They operate with integrity and take pride in the job they do and serving the community. They will go the extra mile to assist their clients. Specifically, we were facing a manufacture emission warranty issue directly with Infinity. They helped explain the issue to my wife and I and made sure we were adequately prepared to deal directly with Infinity Dealership directly so that we could have positive results and be well informed. My wife typically gets the car serviced with Trinidad and deals directly with Angel and his friendly staff. We could not be happier.

Nov 22, 2022

Angel and the whole Trinidad Motors crew is THE place to go! I can personally say that I have entrusted Trinidad Motors with over 5 of my personal vehicles over the years and I know of 20+ vehicles of my family and friends that are ongoing clients of theirs. If you want a knowledgeable, TRUSTWORTHY and fair mechanic, Trinidad Motors will check all the boxes.

Nov 22, 2022

Angel is the best mechanic in San Diego! Honest, reliable, affordable and professional. He is so busy on his schedule and you can understand why !! Top service.

Nov 22, 2022

Angel is trustworthy, honest, and extremely knowledgeable. He's repaired everything for me from a 50 year old Westy to a Mini to a 2500hd. Brakes, transmission, carburetor, fuel injection, electical, brakes, everything is done with efficiency.

Nov 22, 2022

Angel was very knowledgeable and he was timely in his repair. This place gave me comfort that they know what they are doing.

Nov 22, 2022

Great customer service! And I have a friend that's a mechanic in anther area who told me the Trinidad was not over charging me. Isn't that a treat in this day!!! & just as important , my car is running beautifully 🚗!! Thank your Trinidad motors for moving into the hood!!!

Nov 22, 2022

Highly Recommended - our company has used Trinidad Motors to service 2 high mileage Sprinter Vans for a few years. He has also serviced my wife's car. Angel is honest, completes work promptly, does quality work, stands behind his work, charges a fair price, and is a much better option than any dealership. He worked at a German car dealership for more than 10 years before opening his own business, is highly qualified, and a true mechanic.

Nov 22, 2022

I discovered Trinidad Motors about three years ago. They have been working on my BMW and my wife’s Toyota, and every time has been nothing but an amazing experience with great customer service, Best repairs at a very reasonable prices. My wife and I can always count and trust Trinidad motors for both of our cars mechanical needs. You should give it a try, you will not be disappointed, Fo Sho 😎

Nov 22, 2022

I had such a good experience with this business! I was stranded next to Trinidad Motors with some car troubles and I ran into the shop and asked if I could borrow a few tools, Angel stopped what he was doing and helped me out, he was so kind and helpful! He tried a few things and he was able to get my car up and running! I was so thankful, thank you!

My family and I were visiting for my daughter's dance competition and the rental car had the low pressure tire light come on. Since they were right near our AirBNB, I pulled in and asked if they could load me up with air. They checked all the tires to ensure they were at the required psi and didn't change. They were nice guys willing to help someone out in a pinch! Thanks again guys!

Nov 22, 2022

My mom took her car in recently because one of her back lights was out. Everyone was courteous. We've been going to see Angel for months and he and his team are always very professional, honest and do great work. We are both very satisfied with all the work that they've done on both our cars. And congratulations on the new location! We wish you great success!

Nov 22, 2022

This business is the best. The man who owns and does the work is a of such good character. He does quality work. He always goes the extra mile and is very fair with the amount he charges. We've always been thoroughly happy with his work.

Vacationing in San Diego. Our rental car died on us overnight. Enterprise rental car informed us that it would take 3-6 hours to get an exchange, witch would have ruined one of our last vacation days! I walked over half a block to meet the amazing staff/mechanics at Trinidad motors. Sure enough they had a jump back and got us back on the road to exchange our car and save our day! Absolutely first class guys at Trinidad Motors San Diego, CA

Nov 22, 2022

We had trouble communicating and getting basic info needed to go forward with repair here.

Nov 22, 2022

Ángel and his team were very kind and thoughtful when I went to there shop for the first time to fix my car. Very honest and attentive people. Definitely do not rip you off on deals. They are very professional and always make sure you are satisfied with the results. As well as they are very sweet for making sure there wasn’t any other issues with my car. They are the best!!! Thank you Angel and Team. From: Maria & Isaiah

My check engine light came on and I prepared myself for a huge bill. Luckily Angel took care of my Audi cost effectively and within four hours of me dropping it off. I will be coming back (hopefully not too soon).
