Brought my car here because it was close to my house and I didnt want to drive farther to my usual place in Alameda. I was impressed enough that I will definitely stick with this place from now on!Ricky stood with me and diagnosed the car while I watched, and explained exactly what needed to be repaired. The estimate seemed very fair to replace the entire radiator. They ended up fixing the car same-day in a matter of hours! Much faster than I was expecting. Afterwards he again showed me exactly what had been done and did a final check. The cherry on top was them returning the car freshly washed.As a young woman I feel like most other mechanics I have gone to will offer only the bare minimum explanation, or condescendingly over-explain the necessary repairs. I really appreciated that Ricky was professional and informative without talking down to me at all.This place deserves all the good reviews!
Tried scamming me into getting new front brake rotors and pads. Had them put on new tires and they said I needed the brakes done because I only had 2mm left of pad left. I second guessed them because I just had my car in for the 125k service at another shop. Took it back to that shop where they removed the front wheel to show me that my brake pads and rotors were absolutely fine. Stay away from this place, they lie to charge for unnecessary work.
Andy is very honest and dependable .
They do good work, and are good to work with if you’re price conscious.
A trustworthy place to get your car repairs. I have been going here for 18 years. They have service several of my cars including my Hyundai, my Jeep and now my Mitsubishi Endeavor. They are great in helping me keep up with my car maintenance and helping me determine what work has to be done now and what work I should be thinking about doing in the future. The best part of all is after each service my car gets this amazing wash and vacuum so it comes back looking like a brand new car thank you Bay Auto Center.
Prompt professional experts with great practicality and great prices. Best youre going to get for your car, especially once youre out of warranty and taking it to the dealer is an expensive, inflexible proposition.Rod knock led to engine failure requiring rebuild with a new short block: dealerships service dept price was $7100, Bay Autos price w/ a non-new (but in good shape w/ warranty) short block was $3200. Runs great since then.Say hello to the fishtank fish for me if you go.
They tried charging me $700 and at least 3 days to replace an alternator. I found another shop who will do it in one day for $400. I dont know if they tried to scam me because I am a woman or what, but maybe get a second opinion on prices before you go with them.
Rick is the best tech in Bay Area! And he is honest. I saved a lot of money. One Toyota of Oakland told me I need a new oil cooler but it is not true! I am so mad at One Toyota. But I am lucky Rick always take care of my car.
FAST and NICE service. They has been my shops for years.
I like these guys. They always explain what is wrong with my car well and do a good job fixing it at a low cost. Im driving a car that is at 220k miles and theyve helped it to get there.
A find for auto repair. Good work, excellent service, at a fair price.
Good service. They washed my car while I got the oil changed.
Became a regular customer and no doubt
Good job and fair price
On a black shop, I went to wash the car twice. As a result, I came back 2 times and it was not long before the car went wrong. Then I took it back and checked it. He actually charged me 80 labor costs, and it was 10-20 minutes. I also said with good intentions, ‘I’m here to fix it, then 80, I’ll take it as a repair fee.’ . I thought, the original 80 is not only the inspection fee but also the repair fee? I said that your sister has not said that I have to repair 80. Is this forced me to fix it here? Then I will tell you a bunch of nonsense, just to make you want to marry this dead cat. . . . . . I said that if you are a few hundred, you will give me a lesson. If I am fucking, I am stupid.
