I was referred to C & D and I am very relieved that my bill was reasonable. I thought there was something seriously wrong. They did check everything out and fixed the simple problems. A bill under $200 is great! Honest. Friendly. On time.
The tire store that I bought my tires from suggested I get an alignment. I always use C&D for everything, so there was no question where I would take my car. They performed alignment check and found only a minor adjustment was needed. Since the adjustment was so minor, they didnt even charge me. Great service from a fantastic family,
Ive been coming to C&D for a few years. Was recommended them by my Aunt. Ive never looked back. Dahra and Bobby know what they are doing, and repairs are always done quickly and correctly. Plan to use them for the forseeable future
C&d service man called out via aaa. Was amazing. Friendless assertive and got me moving with the simplest resolve and i was super happy and confident he knew what to do to fix. Even though I had just bought a new battery, it was a dud. Not holding enough spark to start car. Awesome c& d. !!!! He recommended driving straight to get a new battery and return the other back to the shop. !
Called C&D early Saturday morning after I found out my usual mechanic was unable to see my vehicle. Talked with Bobby and was able to drive my vehicle over. Had it diagnosed and was able to have my repairs done AND a smog check by mid afternoon!!! Great service, family owned and will definitely come back!!! Thank you C&D!!!
I have been going to C & D Auto Care for several years and recommend them to everyone. They believe in building relationships with honest, professional service. I know the job will be done right the first time and will be a reasonable price.
Fast and clean with smile. Thanks
I have hired Bobby to work on my 99 For Ranger. I am very happy with the service I have received.I recently took my truck in because it wouldnt start. He and his team took it apart in order to find and diagnose it was the fuel pump. I am so grateful to have a place to take my vehicle and KNOW for certain my truck will be repaired.Thank you to Bobby and his team of mechanics!!
These guys are always consistent, honest and very thorough. Ive been using their services for almost 20 years and have always been pleased with the work and the service. Dara and Bobby are a pleasure to do business with, especially when customer service can be a low priority for a lot of businesses out there.
They are prompt and fast. Absolutely trustworthy, will be visiting again
Timing chain replacement.Engine DiagnosticReally enjoy the relationship built with Bobby and Dara. Always feel like Im treated fairly. Good communication.
Good people very good service and would highly recommend C&D Auto Care they will take care of you🥰
We have been using these guys for over twenty years now. wouldnt let anyone else work on my vehicles. This last trip I thought the whole ignition system was going to have to be replaced but they found a way to get me out the door that cost me much less than I expected. Who does that anymore. These guys are the best.
I go nowhere else. Quality work always!!!!!
I was disappointed that appointment was need but a 3 wait was acceptable.
Love this place!!! So professional and awesome! They do above and beyond for you’re car and are the most honest people you will ever meet! There office guy Bobby is the most down to earth guy ever and will treat you with the most respect and professionalism. Props!!! 10 out of 10
They are great. They are very thorough.
Dara and his family has serviced more than 9 personal vehicles for me and our family. He has always done an impeccable/outstanding job for over 18 years, and he and his family continue to deliver. I can always count on him and I trust only a few people with my possessions. Our vehicles get us to and from, and I can get in my car assured that the service was done right. His pricing is fair and he guarantees all of his work. He has never compromised price or service. I recommend him highly, and tell a friend! AAA Card Holders Discount.
C&D has been taking care of our cars for over 20 years. From oil changes to engine replacement, everything Dara and his crew have done for us was always top notch. Great workmanship, very reasonable pricing, informative, friendly attitudes.
You guys were great honest if im in need of a mechanic again when in town from vegas i will come here again i even got a free coffee
The staff are extremely friendly and honest. I highly recommend.
Great service, always take my car there!
Wonderful friendly service and quality work as usual.
I enjoyed the service and price C & D offered. They kept in contact with me regarding the status of my vehicle. I am pleased with their service.
Love those guys....So glad I found them..Super competent, honest and reliable. Never trying to rip you off.Not even thinking about going somewhere else, I highly recommend that place if you need a mechanic.
Excellent service. They let you know what is important to maintain and what is not urgent, but would be nice to do. Good prices for good service. Informative and knowledgeable. :)
I’ve been going to C&D Auto Care for years and for 3 different cars. They have always taken such good care of my vehicles, given great customer service, and done amazing work! They run an incredible business, they’re very honest and clear about the work that needs to be done, and they always do an exceptional job. I’ve live almost an hour away from C&D but I will never stop continuing to go to them because of the way they run their business. It’s worth the drive every time to know that my car is getting the best service by experts who care about the results! I highly recommended C&D Auto Care for all of your vehicle’s needs!
Love love love them!!! I will use them for anything my car needs. Really nice workers, great company
C&D have worked on my car twice since Ive found this place and I couldnt be more happier with the work they have done on my 2011 Nissan Rouge. I found this place after a not so good encounter with another shop and so I was a little skeptical at first but Bobby the manager was very reassuring and kept me in the loop about everything that they were doing with my car during both times I brought it in. Im very appreciative for the C&D team and can confidently say I found my new car shop.
I have been taking my car to C&D for years. I use them regularly for oil changes, and when my car has more serious repair needs I trust them with that as well. They provide excellent service, always giving me the details of what repairs need to be made, and complete their work quickly and accurately. Bobby and Dara are friendly and knowledgeable.
Dara will always tell you how it really is. Wont pressure you to get work done that you dont need done. Quality repairs that you can trust. Its the only place I go.
Cant say enough good things. Bobby and the rest the boys treated me right. I blew out my tire and pulled into the shop, they were closed and AAA unable to get my spare out so I was stuck over night. In morning I explained to Bobby(manager) what happened and he sent his guy right away to look at it. What took 2 different AAA drivers 4 hours of doing nothing they were able to figure out how to drop my spare tire and they swapped it out and then didnt even charge me. Very nice guys very clean shop and they all were very professional. The mech was kind and warned me that spare was old so be careful which rang true when I got to tire shop 5 miles away and it was already falling apart(no fault of C&D). They even let me get a free coffee and filtered water. A class act shop/biz all around. I suggest this place to anyone!!!
I have been going to Dara now for the past 12 years. He and his staff are warm, friendly and honest which is hard to find in mechanics now days. Since the day I started going to him, he has gone above and beyond my expectations and always checks everything on my vehicles to make sure my family and I are safe. He has even done some repairs for free when I got two flat tires due to some nails in the road. Superb family owned business and customer service. His son Bobby is amazing too. Always good spirited and gracious. I would definitely trust your vehicles with Dara and his team for a fair price and quality work. If he cant fix something he will tell you straight up. No undelivered promises or low quality work here. Give them a try, you will be happy you did. I always recommend friends and family to them!
The customer service is number one always. Very important to me. Along with expert repairs.
Excellent service all the way around. I would highly recommend these guys! Thanks Bobby and everyone at C&D.
Great auto repair shop, very friendly and knowledgeable. I have been using C & D auto care for years and I wont go anywhere else with my vehicles.
Fabulous service. The staff is wonderful!! Thank you!! 🤩🤩😊😊🎁🎁
They seem like honest and capable mechanics. Went in for a 4 wheel alignment, they saw only two misaligned so they charged me for two. The price was cheaper than I expected, and my problem was fixed.
C&D Auto personnel are fast, efficient and did not charge a lot. I love their service, and you will too.I waited for my brakes to be repaired and it did not take long, i.e. maybe 45 min. And the price was reasonable compared to other estimates. They performed great work and l am quite satisfied with the operation of my brakes.
My husband and I have been bringing our many cars and trucks for maintenance, tune ups and repairs to C&D Auto for over 17 years. Coming from a family of auto mechanics, I have high standards for my cars and Dara and Bobby have taken excellent care of our vehicles and stand behind their work! They usually get us in the same day when possible, are competitive with their prices and above all give great service.
Been going to Dara at C&D Auto on and off for a number of years. Dara has given me good advice and good service throughout that time. Brought a vehicle in today for a Pre-purchase inspection. They were very complete and really helped me understand the problems with the vehicle.
I love that this is a family owned and operated establishment. They provide very detail oriented service and are absolutely wonderful people!
Dara and his family go out of their way to take care of people! C&D Auto Care is the only place that I trust completely and confidently to be honest with me. The last time I was there it was a minor problem and they refused to let me pay! And to be clear, it was not a problem that they could have possibly overlooked the last time I had been in for service, and its not the only time these guys have saved me money! Family run and honest!!!
These guys really helped me out. Im a contractor and its really difficult to find the time to get my truck into the mechanic. I had an issue with my brakes that needed to be fixed immediately. The Crew at C&D Auto went out of their way to get it done in a day. Bobby was extremely helpful and did a great job explaining what was wrong. Ill definitely be using C&D in the future.Thanks again,Ron
C&D auto care la mesa had me back on the road within a couple of hours and also saved me nearly $300.They are very knowledgable, transparent, helpful and honest.I highly recommend their services.
Been my place to take all my vehicles for almost 20 years.
Most honest and professional auto repair weve ever had. Ive referred friends for years and wont anywhere else with our cars!
Dara and Bobby are great. Prices are good. These guys do it right!
We have had all our car services done at C&D for some time now. We like them because they explain the services our cars need in terms we can understand and we trust what they tell us.
C & D is the ONLY place my family takes their cars. We have trusted Dara, Bobby, and their team of technicians with our past 4 cars; 6 if you count the cars my daughter and son drive. I most value their honesty and comprehensive knowledge of their work. If I dont need something done, they tell me that; if I need something done, they tell me that, too, and they are timely with their work and straightforward with their pricing. I cant imagine taking our vehicles anywhere else and I highly recommend them.
Smog check done. In and out in less than 15 min including data entry of work order, etc. with appointment.
This was my second time with C & D. Both times they have been incredibly kind, respectful, and helpful. Bobby even kindly pulled up pictures to explain to me what exactly they fixed and what exactly was broken. It helped me understand what they were doing more accurately and made me trust them with fixing my car. They even took me home and offered to pick me up when my car was finished. Great service!
Be careful. Based on the good reviews, I sent my daughter to them because her alternator light was on. They supposedly tested it and it was just the battery. Told her to go back to where she bought the battery. Instead as she went to AutoZone who properly tested everything and confirmed it was the alternator. Found another mechanic that also agreed it was alternator and properly repaired it. Light is off and car is running great. No thanks to C & D Auto Care. Maybe we caught them on a bad day, but all I can say is be careful.
Extremely accommodating, honest, reasonably priced . We have been going to them for many years and will continue to go to them
We have been taking our vehicles to C&D Auto for about fifteen years. I have always been happy with the work and service. In addition I trust these guys to take the best care of me. I have also recommended them to multiple friends over the years. Thanks guys.
It was good
Been taking all my cars there to C and D auto care for the last 15yrs and always get a fair honest diagnosis anytime. They pride themselves on a no BS assessment when it comes to your car. So none of that typical, you need more done and more money spent for useless not needed maintenance.
This is the best repair shop I have ever been to. Great work great prices.
Hands down the most honest and reliable mechanics in SD period.
This place is my new go to for automotive repair. Guys are friendly honest, and trustworthy. I typically work on my own vehicles when it becomes too difficult and I need a mechanic this is where I will go. Glad I found them.
Incredibly honest, efficient and helpful mechanics. They took the time to explain everything to me. Would definitely bring my car again.
Ive been taking my cars here for years and they are always great! They are so friendly and have amazing customer service. They are fair and honest and take good care of my car, regardless of how big or small the job is. I recommend them 100%!
Great job of saving me money on my Tesla X tire replacement.
Honest, Integrity and Fair prices! I found this Auto Repair shop by searching on my AAA membership website. I had gone elsewhere for an oil change and during their 20 point inspection the other auto repair shop claimed I had a leaking rear suspension and needed it replaced. I came to C&D Auto for a second opinion and they indicated there was no leak visible. I subsequently also had some preventive maintenance done on my 2009 Hybrid Mercury Mariner as it is now at 80K miles. Both Bobby and Dari are honest guys with integrity. They dont upsell unnecessary services and only make recommendations on what is critical to be done and what can wait. I am now a new loyal customer at C&D Auto! Thanks Ash
Ive been going to C&D for almost 2 decades and Ive never had a problem they couldnt solve. Dara and Bobby provide excellent customer service and their prices a fair. I highly recommend C&D for your auto service needs.
This place is overpriced and unable to give confident estimates. Not sure why it has such high reviews... I recently had an issue with my car where it was making a noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. I was in a rush to figure out what was going on and my normal mechanic was closed so i took it here. They quoted me $700 to replace the rear wheel bearing and told me that they werent even sure that would fix the issue. I decided at that price and with that uncertainty it wasnt worth it and started looking for a new car. After some discouraging searches for a new vehicle I decided to bite the bullet and have my car fixed instead. This time i took it to my normal mechanic, told him the exact same thing I told these guys (there is a noise coming from the rear of my vehicle), and they told me the same thing (it was a rear wheel bearing causing the noise) except they were only going to charge me $448 for parts and labor and they were certain it would solve the problem and if not they would fix whatever was causing the noise at no additional cost (thats how confident they were the issue was the wheel bearing)... Needless to say I wont be coming back here.
This is the only place I service my car. I will never take my car anywhere else. When I get ready to by my next car I will take it there before I buy it. I trust these guys! Honest hard workwork people. Bobby and Dar are the best!
Honest, reliable, friendly and reasonably priced auto care.
Took my Jeep here because my mechanic didnt have the new approved smog test equipment for a carbureted engine. What a royal pain! These guys worked with me so much to get it to pass the test. They clearly explained the likely causes and I was able to get my Jeep to pass and its running much better now.They are reliable, trustworthy and honest. If you need a new mechanic, Id refer hem in a heartbeat.
I have been using C&D Auto for years now and still find then honest, efficient, through, knowledgeable, and caring. Would gladly send anyone to them.
Dependable, fast, and honest work. I wil definitely be returning for all my maintenance needs.
We are from out of town and having issues with my daughters BMW. Went to C&D based on Google reviews. The gentleman running the front desk listened to my description and stated that they werent really equipped with the specialized tools that would be required if it became involved and that he would hate to get half way into it and then need to send me elsewhere. He recommended I go to Johns just up the street. He was very nice and I appreciated the up front assessment. Would return here with non BMW vehicles. Two thumbs up.
Fair price and dependable work!
I now have been coming to the auto center for 3 years.. and and greatly satisfied. Thanks guys for the wonderful service!
I always can count on C & D Auto Care to give me great service on my car! These guys are so nice and really care about their customers. Ive been going here for 4 years so far and have not had any bad experiences :)
I had a concern about the fluids in my car and they said they would inspect inspect the car and look everything over. Once they were done and everything passed inspection I asked how much it would be and they said we do inspections for FREE. Wow! That was a great way to start the day.Great experience and great customer service. Ill definitely be coming back here.
Thank you Brian! Had a new headlight bulb but had never installed one. Called C&D and Brian said to bring my car in and he wouldnt charge me since Id never been there before. Called it a Meet and Greet. Within minutes I had a working headlight. Very impressed.
Always taking great care of me and going above and beyond expectations. These guys have no idea how much easier theyve made my life! Trustworthy, Friendly, and Committed! Three simple aspects most companies lack today, so thank you C and D!
Brian you are such an AWESOME man!!!Thank you so very much for all your expertise input. Plus, the all great information about my car the dealer did not bother to tell me about earlier when I purchased it in cash from Baldwin Auto Sales in La Mesa.
C&D is always providing quality service and they always ensure you undserstand and are satisfied with the outcome. Bobby and Dara are always extremely friendly and go above and beyond to help you out or work with you to find a solution. I just wanted to give a huge thank you to these guys and their crew for always helping me out! I’ve been coming back to them ever since my first visit and I don’t plan on changing that. Thank you!
Love these guys, they take care of it, the prices are fair, the service excellent, and theyve got a great sense of humor down there! Highly recommended!
As always, the only place I trust my vehicles to be fixed and give them a five star rating. They were extremely patient to explain the cause of problems and what they did to fix them. I highly recommend them as the best auto repair shop in San Diego!
I have always taken my car to dealerships for service. All I can say is that the service that I received from C&D Auto Care was second to none. Honest, courteous and very friendly. Thank you Dara and Bobby for a great service and BTW, I love your coffee !!!
Great services, great prices. Dara is very knowledgeable and friendly, will take care of all your car needs. I highly recommend them.
Long time customer. Excellent service. Dara and Bobby are very nice and provide great service. I highly recommend them for any car service or repair needs.
Search for elusive problem.
Another company had told me my vehicle was basically beyond repair, and would not be able to pass a smog check unless it was almost completely rebuilt. As it turns out, that company had simply pressed a Traction Control button on my console, which was limiting acceleration.Dara and his awesome team were super helpful and very communicative. They also figured out the problem right away, and literally with the press of a button sent me on my way, free of charge. I will absolutely be coming back when my car has any issues.
Honest and dependable. Ive taken my cars to C&D for over 25 years and I wouldnt take my cars to another repair shop.
I will say customer service is great. I called and Bobby provided an estimate over the phone with an appointment time. There is coffee inside the office. The mechanic was quick and my car was ready in no time.
I would and have recommend this auto shop! They are so friendly and seem to really care about not just the cars they service, but the people too. They definitely make one feel important! I wont go anywhere else.
A great auto repair shop that will keep you up to date on the status of your cars problems and repairs! I have had problems with Smog failure issues on 2 of my family cars and C&D has diagnosed and repaired both. I recommend this shop to any and everyone for professional customer service and repairs!
The mechanics know what they are talking about, but are also able to understand what the customer is talking about (since I dont know the terminology for everything). Ive been there twice and each time, I felt like my car was taken care of in a timely manner for a fair price.Example of honesty:I assumed the worst (that my gas tank had deteriorated) and told them that. Other places might have charged me, but they told me that the negative lead from my battery wasnt connected to my chassis. A much simpler and easy fix (also something everyone should check when their car doesnt start lol)
Brian and crew were very helpful, polite and extremely honest about what my vehicle needed and didnt need. Im glad I found a trustworthy mechanic. Ill definitely come here again.
We have been customers of C&D for years! Great personal service and quality mechanics. Thanks Dara and Bobby for ALWAYS taking great care of our vehicles.John Cooter
I’ve been coming to C&D automotive center. Mechanic here are just great and customer service when thinking of mechanic place looking out further than C&D auto.
They are the best. Honest, friendly, and work hard to get things done the right way the first time. Awesome team.
I came over to C & D after having a really bad experience at Ford. They took great care of me.Customer for life....
Dara and Bobby at C&D Auto have been taking care of our cars for many years. They always inform before they perform, are honest and accurate, professional and courteous. I trust them!! Auto shops arent always the most trustworthy businesses.... C&D is!! Check them out next time you need service.
