Thank you for taking me home and picking me up. Went above and beyond the extra mile for me..Thanks again,Julie (Ernest Quier daughter)
Amazing customer service and really reasonable especially in a small town. They aren’t out to “rip you off” like other local shops. Service was quick even still, they offered me their loaner car so my daughters and I didn’t have to wait in the lobby for an hour. Best part is their shop pup!! I finally found an auto shop to keep up with my car that I feel confident in.
I needed a job done that wasnt just cut and paste, but instead took first hand knowledge and skill to accomplish. Paul & Sons accepted the job when no one else would and accomplished it to satisfaction with no customer oversight needed. Will use again.
Got us in quickly, even when every other shop on town couldnt see us for a week. Prices were fair, service with a smile. Docked them one star, because I took the car in for a specific problem, and they didnt work on the problem until they got my specific permission later in the day.
Awesome customer service great atmosphere Awesome work performed, my ac wasnt working, and needed to be repaired, they replaced the AC compressor, now its blowing cold air, happy with the work performed would recommend anyone to use Paul &Sons.
Couldnt be happier, they knew the problem and got it fixed in a timely manner. Dan did a great job repairing my diesel truck. We will be back! Thank you!
Our RV broken down from overheating in Death Valley last week. Fortunately, were able to made it to Paul & Son Automotive. Unfortunately, they were not able to look at it until 3 days later. We had to rent van to drive the family home to the bay area, about 6 hours. Diagnostic came back with a faulty fuel injection sensor. Part was ordered for Thursday, but was a wrong part, so they have to reordered the right one for Friday. Unfortunate, it was delayed until Monday. Because of this, we had to wait until Monday to pickup, which cost us an extra $150 for the extra days minivan rental. Finally Monday came, and I drove back to Ridgecrest at 3 am. RV was not fix until 3pm. After the paperwork, started driving home and about 3 miles out, RV broke down again. Had to tow it back to the shop, costs $125. Turn out someone forgot to clip the fuel line and therefore, fuel was leaking and cannot start after the broke down. I wished a technician could have come over to look at it to help me start the engine instead of having me tow the RV back. Anyhow, everything is good now. PRO: Know their stuff and resolved the problem. CON: Few mistakes that cost us extra money, like car rental days and towing that couldve have been avoided. Because of that, my rating is three stars, otherwise could have been easily 5 stars for customers service and mechanical skill.
They were up front with pricing and the work was done on time and correctly. I highly recommend them! Thanks Brian.
Paul and Sons could not have been more helpful. Working with Genesis and Brian made the entire experience of having a total engine replacement much less stressful than it could have been. Thanks to the whole team!
The Master Technician was awesome. There were multiple problems with my engine control electrical system. He fixed each problem. He explained the issue and what was done to fix it. Most shops would have replaced items hoping that would fix it. The real fix would have been missed. Thank you Paul & Sons.
We had an alternator failure at the Coso Rest Stop while towing our 30 foot trailer to Palm Springs. The first place I called was Paul and Sons. I am so glad I did. Genesis was as helpful as could be and told me when I come in, they would jump right on it. When I arrived about an hour later, it wasnt 10 minutes later they had my truck in the shop. Although we werent sure how long it would take and seeing how it was Friday, she offered to let us stay on the lot until Monday if necessary. Well, it wasnt necessary. They had my truck up and running in less than two hours, without an appointment. This meant the world to me and I am so happy I was able to meet some of the folks who helped us out. If I didnt live 900 miles away, Id use them for all my automobile service needs. A very refreshing experience indeed....
Went in for my first SMOG Check on my 2013 Challenger RT. Went easy. They also installed my hood struts at no charge. Good company. Nice people. Have been using them for SMOG checks and other issues since 2009. Thanks.
I had the front rotors and brake pads replaced as well as a system flush on my 2004 Durango. Thank you for your excellent service. This was my 1st visit to Paul and Sons.
Awesome job! Fast and efficient. Thank you for the great Work!
They were very quick. Thank you 😊
II was very satisfied with the work they did on my 87 Buick.
Giselle at the front desk was very friendly and helpful and the tall old man mechanic and his Apprentice were just as nice and helpful and thorough in discussing what they needed to do to my vehicle
Very professional and timely work. Genesis at the desk was very kind and helpful! Definitely coming here again for my maintenance needs.
We had a problem that was preventing our car from passing smog. They diagnosed it and fixed it quickly. Very friendly service also.
Awesome service! I definitely recommend their expert mechanics to anyone who needs automotive work. They are definitely professionals.
They know what they are doing and they are fair in their hours charged.
Service was fantastic, we were in a hurry to get home to Washington and needed new tires and an oil change. They did it quickly with professionalism and the job was done very well. Shout on the the worker who staid through his lunch to finish it so we could get out of there. Checked numerous other thing in the car and suggested other repairs that were needed when we got home, not to mention printed out the service history on the car which was great considering we had bought the car just the day prior. Would recommend to everyone!
They got my car in immediately and finished it the same day. Nice professional office and very clean work shop. Recommend highly.
Broke down and from the moment I called them and was towed to their company they completely helped me out with everything. I was traveling and was in the middle of no where when my truck broke down . I called them and asked if I could be towed to them and look at what happened to my truck . Once it was determined what was wrong they had to hold my truck for a month and they kept it in the garage due to tools and such in my truck . Very thankful
I was in town visiting my mom and ran into a problem with my car. Called around and only Paul & Sons were able to take a look at my car same day despite not having booked an appointment. They were friendly and knew exactly what the problem was and took care of it. Genesis, especially was very helpful. Highly recommend taking your car to this place if in the area. Very knowledgeable & courteous. If I’m ever in Ridgecrest & in need of car repairs again I’m definitely bringing my car here.
They (lady with dark hair, in particular, don’t remember her name) were very helpful when my check engine light kept going on and off every couple days. Turns out they corrected a recent repair (solenoid replacements) I had done and my check engine light has stayed off. Plus they got in contact with the previous repair shop to help me resolve my issue with them. I took their advice and I was able to recoup the money I spent on parts. Impressed they went above and beyond for a first-time customer!
I called and scheduled a smog check with only two days advance notice. The staff was friendly and Covid conscious which I greatly appreciated. The job was done in a timely manner and I was on my way very quickly. Thanks Paul!
I recently had a bit of engine work performed on my Jeep CJ7. The work they did showed attention to detail. In addition, they were proactive about doing other work at a fair price. Throughout the time that they were working I was able to communicate by text, which is very important to me, and never once needed to speak on the phone. I plan to use this shop again.
Excellent service very fast I will use them again and I recommended them to my family
Good service good people friendly professional
Literally the best experience Ive had with any mechanic. The receptionist was super friendly and helpful in all ways. From helping me get my car fixed up to helping me tame my 4 yr old. She was amazing! The mechanic was professional and honest. The over all experience was absolutely fantastic, pricing was very fair and work was done fast!!!
Thank you so very much! You rescued me in a quick pinch! I am grateful I took my car here. Nice folks! Ty!!
Went for a smog check, very polite customer service and I was in and out in no-time. Great business, I am very satisfied.
I have come to give Paul & Sons a great deal of respect for the work and service they have provided for me over the years, I would like to thank them so much for all that they have done and are doing for all customers like myself
Excellent service always. Genesis makes you feel like you are her only priority. We will definitely return.
Staff was very friendly and prices were good. Ive just moved to Ridgecrest and feel confident I will use them again.
Gentleman named Brian there who will rid you of auto woes will only deal with him.
EXCELLENT service & repair work!!!HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
I recently experienced a complete systemic failure of the audio system in my 2004 Ford. I was not happy with the existing system and decided to replace all the components including the head unit, amplifier and patch cables. I called Brian and consulted with him as he had performed quality and professional work on my truck previously. Brian was eager to take on this project. He listened carefully to my concerns and provided valuable insight. We decided on the components to purchase, Alpine Audio. The components all arrived within a few days and I brought the truck in late morning on a Monday. Brian met with me and we reviewed a few of my concerns regarding the installation and I left. I received a call from Brian around 11:OO am the next day. Brian advised the installation was completed and that thought I would be very pleased with the components and installation. I arrived a few hours later. The installation was outstanding. My biggest concern was the placement of the cables and wiring to and from the amplifier. Upon inspection that concern was completely alleviated. The installation was outstanding. The cables were routed, anchored and shielded for maximum concealment and protection. Brian took the time to take me through the basic operation and navigation of the head unit. The Alpine system is far superior to my legacy system in terms of overall quality, operation, capabilities and of course sound quality.In closing I highly recommend Paul and Sons Automotive. My experience as been outstanding. Brian is professional, focused, knowledgeable and payed close attention to my concerns. His work ethic and friendly personality are refreshing. I am definitely a return customer.
Brian and his team have consistently provided me with superior customer service, excellent mechanical support for my vehicles for several years.They are timely and accommodating.If they miss something the first time around, they don’t make excuses, they fix the problem right away.They keep all my cars in excellent condition.
Always friendly and honest. I won’t go anywhere else!
I am new to Ridgecrest and chose this place kinda out of the blue for repair on my old BMW that I just purchased on-line and knew very little about. They fixed my car efficiently, in a timely manner and at a reasonable cost. I wont take my car to any other auto repair in town. Very impressed!
I had taken my older truck to another shop here in Ridgecrest and was quite disappointed.I was impressed from the first call. I find myself on edge when it comes to paying to get my car worked on. They put my worries to rest with their total professionalism. They listened to what I was concerned about and in a timely manner called me to advise me of what their professional team of technicians had found with my concerns.When I got my truck back all my concerns have been fixed. The work was in my eyes done great and it was even a bit lower price when picked up. I made a mistake taking it to another shop prior, never again.Dont make the same mistake I did, pick up the phone or stop in and to borrow a line, youre in great hands!
Ten years ago, November 27th, 2007 we had total brake failure on our Teton 5th wheel while descending from Lake Isabella. We found Paul & Sons in Ridgecrest and had an amazing, wonderful experience there getting our rig repaired. They did a detailed examination, taking pictures and contacted Teton Homes in Casper, Wy to find the exact proper way to make this repair. This repair took more than one day as parts had to be shipped to Paul & Sons. They let us plug into their electricity and stay in our unit. They shortly performed and extensive repair to our brakes and suspension (that caused the problem) and we have had smooth sailing ever since then. Thanks Paul & Sons for reliable, professional repairs that permanently fixed our problem. You were our oasis in the desert that day! Cliff & Teresa Witte
Truly not one negative thing to say about our experience. Genesis, Brian and the technician made the operation prompt and painless. Including keeping my car on the road while awaiting parts...Finding an automotive shop you can trust is one of the trickiest parts of modern life. We have found ours!
I’m always surprised at how efficient Paul & Sons is. I’ve never had to follow up on any issues. Always great service!
I’m new to the area and recently purchased a used car. Upon registering the vehicle with DMV, I was told that I needed a smog check. I went to one location and was told that they were back logged for 2 weeks. I then found Paul & Sons and was taken care of immediately, without an appointment. I was in and out of the location in a reasonable amount of time.
Paul & Sons are undeniably the best, a true family for your local automotive needs. Genesis is the all-gracious Queen behind the desk of the kingdom, and she indeed makes forking out cash for needed repairs counter-intuitively pleasurable. Brian, working the back end of the operation, took my rat infested truck -- which was nearly wholly devoured by an entire rodent family who mistook my truck as their new home while I was on vacation -- and literally cleaned it up, installing new lines, hoses, wires, deep-diving into pressure cleaning the entire engine area, to the point where the truck now looks and runs ten years younger than when it hobbled haggardly in. Thank you so much Genesis and Brian. You two are the true hearts of Paul & Sons. A new loyal client you now have! C
Very happy with the service I received. One of my tires blew out and the other one wasn’t far behind, so I ordered a pair of replacement tires and went to Paul and Sons to get them replaced. The lady up front was very helpful and accommodating in getting everything squared away. Now I am back up and running and my car is driveable again after going a week running on a spare tire. Thanks Paul and Sons I will definitely come back with any additional repairs needed in the future!
I was treated fairly and respectfully by everyone there.. My cars problems were explained to me in plain talk and final.price came in under estimate. Work was done quickly and they did a damn good job. This is the place to go in Ridgecrest if your car is giving you trouble.
First time visiting paul and sons and was not dissatisfied,Will definitely take my vehicle back! Great customer service and communication! Found the problem and was able to have it fixed the same day!
Very quick and easy, always accommodating to work around my schedule and get my cars back to me as quickly as they can. Always do a courtesy inspection and let me know if there’s any additional issues with my cars. Will continue to use them in the future for all my car needs!
Very friendly. Quick response to my repairs and good follow up. Good business, good service.
Excellent work on our motorhome! It had a battery problem in the coach and they diagnosed and repaired it promptly! So thankful for their professionalism and going the extra mile to make sure it was fixed correctly!
I had a great experience at Paul & Sons. Their reception are is very comfortable and the staff is terrific. My car was ready on time and I’m very satisfied with their work. Paul & Sons is a permanent contact in my phone and I highly recommend using them especially given their convenient location.
I want to thank Paul and Sons for all they did for us.We broke down 40 miles north of Ridgecrest towing a large Fifthwheel. Other diesel repair shops turned us down but, Paul and Sons took us in and repaired my fuel issue in a timely matter. They knew we were stranded and even let us use one of their loaner cars while the work was being completed.Thanks againBuzzCarson City, Nv
Very professional, I totally appreciated them squeezing me in for a smog check around 4 PM in the afternoon. And each person had a smile. I would totally come here again... great customer service. Thank you again for all that you guys do To help the community.
Paul and Sons is by far the best shop Ive ever been too. Fast, reliable, knowledgeable and very friendly! Outstanding customer service. I highly recommend going and talking to Brian about all your automotive needs!
When we unexpectedly got stranded in the desert and were towed to Paul and Sons we were pleased with the positive service, willingness to fit us in, air conditioned waiting area, clean bathrooms, and cool water. The location also made it easy to find somewhere eat while we waited. The mechanics were professional and thorough. Out of the 6 places we called for emergency repair, we are so happy that Paul and Sons were the ones available!
Brian,Please correct the record to show 1970 (not 1972) MB 280SE.I had fuel system serviced this week. I am delighted with the personal service provided by Paul Sr. and the very nice results. Getting rid of the old gasoline and cleaning the fuel system has made the car start easily, run smoothly, and have more power.I intend to bring this classic MB back for more service.Good job, Paul!Larry Trowsdale
Paul, Brian, Genesis and River, are all people that I would/will do business with time and time again. Professional, caring, and much much more, theyve got my business, and friendship.I wouldnt use anyone else, if you have any choice at all. Call them 1st, and see what youve been missing.Sherry Attaway
I just got my breaks done so I guess great work, but I got charged more than the dealership for a diagnostics and the price for the diagnostic did not count towards my brakes. Needless to say I paid more here than the dealership. If you dont know something find out, its sad that we cant trust people to be upfront Im not a mechanic.
Great service and very personable. A little pricy however the took care of what I needed in a timely fashion.
A+ on quality, value, great customer service. Thank you Paul and sons for making it so easy for me.
CROOKS! Do not go here
They installed a great stereo and back up camera. Would have loved it even more if they would have called about fixing the horrid clicking noise they found when they were installing it. Other than that, wonderful job. She loves it.
They were very kind and professional. They took great care of me making sure my car received the greatest care and paid attention to detail.Their customer service couldnt have been any better and I will definitely be coming back. Thank you,Gents Only
Paul and Sons is the best place in town they provide good quality work, and want what’s best for you and your vehicle. Would highly recommend.
Got my oil change from them. It came with a complimentary diagnostic with price estimates. I will be going back to them for car repairs.
Great customer service, short wait times, and honest repairs. The only downside is that, like all mechanics, the price can get a bit steep.
I came in for an oil change and they did an inspection of my vehicle and told me about my issues with the vehicle. Very professional. When I got my tires in for my suv I took it there bc of the good service and amazing customer service.
EXCELLENT SERVICE!! Paul price-matched a Las Vegas diesel performance shop and completed the in-depth work flawlessly. Dan, the mechanic, was very helpful and always gave me updates when I stopped by. Genesis up front was always positive and extremely helpful. 24k miles/24 month warranty. Free loaner car while they worked on it. I have only great things to say about this shop!
Incredibly helpful, honest & caring folks! Spoke with Brian & Genesis who were kind, professional & very personable. Had us back on the road with a new tire in about an hour.
Went in for an oil change. Staff was very friendly and helpful, they have a Keurig so was able to enjoy good coffee while I waited. 😝 seriously though I will come back for my vehicle needs.
Paul and Sons put new tires on my truck about a month ago. It was last minute and they had them in stock and mounted the next day. Awesome tires and a super resonable price. Also had oil change last week. They made whole experience easy. Very comfortable with them working on my 1500!
Paul & Sons is by far the best automotive shop in Ridgecrest. They are very professional and get your vehicle fixed in a timely manner. I 100% recommend Paul & Sons for all your vehicle needs!
Great work! Had them rotate my tires and change my oil. They got me taken care of at a great price. I highly recommend Paul and Sons.
They came under the estimate they gave me. They were very professional and seemed to put me first. Nothing but praise for everyone there.
Great people, down to earth, with that friendly small town vibe. What was a big deal to me was minor fix for them. Thank you for the prompt assistance! If I need help again, I know who to call first.
Fast friendly and affordable. Great staff eager to help you get back on the road
My family has been using the Ferris’s for over 50 years for our cars and trucks and installation of XM radio and towing; these guys are fantastic!HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Good mechanic service...and customer service,Thanks,and I will be back for more!
Employees are very good.They help everythin. ThereService is awesome.
Went to get my car smogged. Nice and clean lobby. Jennifer (the front desk) was friendly. They apparently do a 12 point inspection as well which was really helpful. Only one con.... Took a little longer than expected. Was there for over an hour. Other than that great place.
My GMC Sonoma truck was hard to start some time and other Automobile repair shop was unable to locate bad part.Paul & Son did good job to locate bad part “Bad fuel pressure regulator “and explained in written what wrong and reasonable repair bills. And texted me what wrong with truck and need OK from me to replace bad part and after Paul & Son my truck start as normal.
Paul and Sons helped me with an off road recovery in the snow. I received great service and the guys helping me were personable and professional. Thanks.
Definitely quick and easy. Customer service was spot on. Definitely would come here again.
Great service! Staff was friendly and they had me back in my car in less than an hour for an oil change and inspection
Picked up my truck, fixed it and a few more problems. It is an old truck. It likely will pass smog even in LA. I didnt like the price but ... yea maintaining an old truck at some point is expensive. Paul and Sons told me the costs so I wasnt too shocked.
Have always took my vehicles to Paul and sons. They are amazing and will work to get you’re car done fast for you.
Very professional, affordable and fast. Always satisfied taking my vehicles to Pauls.
Im so satisfied with their work, they let me know of problems for the future, and not to forget Hartley who is great with people.
Truck was fixed quickly with great customer service. Will be going back for other repairs
Always great service
After taking a wrong turn February 18th, my Subaru engine overheated in Pearsonville, CA and it was towed to Paul & Son’s as they were referred by Toyota as very knowledgeable about foreign autos. I had an extended warranty and after talking with them and meeting all three of the generations, coupled with their experience with warranty companies, I left the car for repair. The shop’s condition was impressive as well.Brian (3rd generation) is very knowledgeable regarding warranty companies and if you have a warranty you want this shop dealing with them. We had bit of give and take with the company, and most warranty companies will try to reduce their exposure while Paul & Son’s philosophy is, “they will fix it right, or they won’t do it”, and they live by that rule.After repairs, Paul & Son’s documented that a small amount of hydrocarbons remained in the cooling system but the warranty company felt it was sufficient. This documention proved prophetic, because 77 miles later the head gaskets blew out necessitating an engine rebuild. I had it towed back to Paul & Son’s; as to start over again with another mechanic is very problematic as they will question the first shop’s work, and beginning all over with the warranty company could be very risky.They were so capable my warranty company paid more than the policy’s limits for the repair. I then drove it over 2,200 miles to East TN and it is like a new engine. Do not be penny wise and pound-foolish when it comes to auto repairs. Have it fixed right or not at all. My hat is off to these folks and their expertise.
Had an exhaust leak on my 2007 F350 with the 6.0 diesel. These guys fixed me up and got me back on the road in the middle of our vacation! Great people doing a great job!
I dont know what the situation is when it comes to my vehicle Paul and Sons Automotive takes care of my vehicle very well I recommend them to everyoned
Making an appointment was really easy and staff was very friendly.
