My heat quit working in my truck. They repaired it and did a great job putting my dash back together. They are all friendly and I believe they look to do the best they can for their customers.

Very impressive I have a 99 Cadillac Eldorado my AC was not working properly, went to Cadillac dealership they turn me away. polar bear, didn’t, they even went extra. They repair my AC also replace my ignition coil no extra charge because it went bad in their care, I truly appreciate polar bear for their commitment to make sure I left satisfied which I was overwhelmed, because I now have cold AC . Polar Bear #1, the best in AC repair in Sacramento,ca

Awesome service! I called for an oil change appointment and they informed me of how long everything would take ahead so I could make arrangements. Staff was superrrr friendly, light hearted and knowledgeable. They know what they are talking about and aren’t pushy. I’m sure they know that with one good experience, they will have returning customers. I have other work I need done to my car and will absolutely be back to them.

I will always take my cars here. I moved here from the Bay Area and didn’t know the area. When I had problems with my AC I looked on line and found many five star reviews for Polar Bear. Turns out they are five star. Exceptional work. In order to do the work on my AC they had to remove my dashboard and center console to replace the evaporator coil. They did all this work and put everything back and I couldn’t tell. My AC works perfectly just like when my car was new and the interior still looks new. Great job, great people!!

Brought my car in for an overheating issue which was causing the A/C to not perform as well. The team at Polar Bear was able to explain to me the issues and help me understand the problem, then they got the job done at a fair price and within a reasonable time. Professional service at a decent price, you cant beat it! I highly recommend Polar Bear and will be bringing my car back for all other maintenance and service in the future.

Called and got an estimate to replace the a/c compressor on my Highlander Hybrid and was given an estimate. Pulled the car from the dealer as their price was too high. Called Polar back to schedule an appointment and was told that they dont work on hybrids. Would have been nice to know that when I called initially. I questioned why they wouldnt work on my car and they said that they wont work on hybrids. Avoid this shop if you have a hybrid or want someone that gives you all the conditions up front.

Polar Bear Auto Care you guys rock!I have 1991 Chevy C1500 truck that needed the entire A/C system replaced. They did a great job in a short amount of time. A few weeks later the system was not working properly. Took it back in and the mechanics had it resovle in no time at of course no cost. I been so satisfied with there service that I asked if they could take a look at a leaky transmission and faulty horn. 2 days later the truck was ready for pick up.Thank you guys at Polar Bear Auto Care for your commitment to quality auto service and great customer service!I recommend this place to anyone looking for a honest and reliable quality auto service!

Hands down the best and only shop for A/C vehicle service! I appreciate the tenured staff and their extensive knowledge of auto care. AAA+++ all the way around!

I went to get a price for 2 ac lines and information for my car. The guy in the back said he was too busy to look at it. He said he hasbeen trying to go to lunch for 2 hours and hadnt got to go yet. He could have had a little better customer service. The older gentlemen inside the office was very helpful with information.

Nice people who diagnosed my air conditioning problems and made recommendations. I made an appointment for repair and left my car in their capable hands. The air is now working wonderfully and just in time before the 100 degree weather hits! Very happy with their work.

I went out of my way to go to this shop for my repairs. What won me over was the patience and consideration they showed me that won me and has made me send their name to multiple friends already. Our car stopped sending heat through the vents. Through my limited knowledge of automobiles and Google I was able to narrow down the issue to 2 parts. I found them and realized this job required a professional touch. I called Polar Bear Auto Care first and described my issue. I requested a rough estimate with the information I gave them on the cost of repair. I am reasonable. I understand you cant tell me exactly what it will cost without a true in shop diagnosis. But the fact that of the 4 shops I called this is the only one that gave me anything past a diagnostic labor charge and gave me a best and worst case scenario cost won me over. They showed care with the vehicle, were honest with prices, worked with me on scheduling repairs. The communication and care I felt was so greatly appreciated. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

Ac replaced on my 2001 Ranger. Quick turn around, about day and half. Staff very friendly and helpful.

No problem with customer service, as I said in first review, only got 4 summers with all new ac system, costing over $3000. Not a very good return for my money. Not willing to put another 1300. to replace compressor.

Excellent Service!!! Great People Easy to deal with fixed my Escalade In Less Than a Day!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Top shelf service the people that work in this shop are as professional as it get.

Professional, prompt, detailed and honest. Worth the money.

Friendly service and far prices, so far.

Staff were experienced, professional and trustworthy from start to finish.Big thank you goes out to Art.

I trust Polar Bear. They always come through for me. They bought the business from my former mechanic, Overstreet. I have not been disappointed. They keep my Subaru in tip top shape. Thanks Polar Bear!

Best auto businesses Ive found in Sacramento. High quality service at a reasonable price, honest and straight forward staff and ownership. I can easily recommend this shop to anyone who needs auto repairs or service... they will absolutely take care of you.

They have my car ready when they say they would and it didnt take them that long I really like their word and they were very reasonable

Im just a little bit bugged because I couldnt even get them to look at my car. I was told that they didnt do A/C on hybrid cars. Which to me is at least a little strange because you wouldnt think that ac varies in relation to the vehicle type. Does A/C system differentiate just because its a hybrid. I just never heard that before 🤔 who knows, maybe its a real thing??

I have used Polar Bear Auto Care twice over the last two years. The first time was for the repair of my air conditioning system and the second was was for a fix on my heating system. For both repairs I found the work to be very high quality at a significantly lower cost than the dealership wanted to charge. The work was completed in a timely manner and the company had great customer service with follow-up concern for their customer’s satisfaction!I own a 2005 Toyota Tacoma truck and plan to continue to have it serviced by Polar Bear Auto Care exclusively. I have not found their level of top-quality, professional service at a reasonable price, anywhere else. That coupled with the level of care and concern they demonstrate for their customers, makes them an excellent auto service business that offers all types of auto care servicing!

Great customer service, reliable and competent with their work.

Im certain the work was done properly without any corners being cut.

Great customer service. Thank you so much for getting my A/C fixed

Fix the problem in less than 3 hours from the time I dropped it off. Explained my problem and they were on it. Always happy with there service and always willing to take care of my needs . Extremely happy customer and have used them for years when we had our business. Thank you

Efficient outfit. Thorough in their work and keep customer informed. Willing to refer expert work when called for.

I have used this shop over the last 20 years (though it’s been in different locations and different names). Their quality is excellent and the service is professional and friendly. They give me options, work with me re: time and budget, are punctual, and do an excellent job of keeping me up to date. I always feel like I am a VIP when I come by or call. I cannot sing their praises enough. It’s so helpful to have a repair shop of this caliber in my corner!

Radiator replacement, Hose and Thermostat Replacement. Appreciate their work and professionalism. Customer service is executed well here.

Polar Bear was Highly recommended through my husbands work so we made an appointment and hoped for the best. We have a 2017 Ford Escape which calls for the 1234yf Freon Since this is a rare type I would suggest to take the car straight to the dealership. I dont believe that polar Bear had enough experience to test this system and I dont believe it was done right.However everyone in the office did an amazing job going above and beyond making me comfortable waiting for the car to get serviced. I would only recommend them for a more common freon.

Very Very nice people. They are easy to get in touch with and will text and call. Fair prices and so much faster then the dealership for repairs. They also do much more then just AC!! The ONLY thing they don’t have is a shuttle service, but it’s no problem to get a ride from a friend.

Best AC shop in Sacramento. Highly recommended by my mechanic.

Very knowledgeable staff. Excellent explaination of services.

Everything went alright but the younger employees are not that friendly.

Kevin, Art and the crew are amazing. Always done when promised!

Wonderful people. I am an older, single woman and they made me feel safe. That they would take care of me. Prices are very fair. Highly recommend.

They really take care of pur truck !

Stopped by for my job and staff was very friendly, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable

Kevin and the service team are all very professional, Im very happy with the results, I believe I found my new mechanic shop. Thanks Guys. Be safe.

They didnt quit help me out just because there euro tech left 5 years ago. Reason why Im giving 5 stars is because they did direct me to where I needed to go. Very helpful..

I have had my A/C looked at two other times and it never worked right. Found Polar Bear who I remember using back in the late 80’s still around and called them up. They had it fixed and blowing cold like when the truck was brand new. They do all kinds of auto repair now and I will definitely go back to them. The whole crew was great. Art and Craig took care of me. Thanks again!!

I have been going to Polar Bear for Years and they are the best mechanic in Sacramento. Darla is super knowledgeable and very responsive. Plus, shes got the cutest puppies that go to work with her. 🐾

I have been bringing my truck to Polar Bear Auto Care since about mid 2011. They have always been a kind, funny and knowledgeable group. What started out as a convenience in getting an oil change while at work. Has turned into the only place I take my truck and refer others to do the same. I have never been disappointed by my experiences nor have I ever felt I was being “taken for a ride” or cheated. They communicate with me if they find something other than what I brought my truck in for. They explain the situation so that I can decide whether to move forward or come back at a later time. As a woman I appreciate having a place I feel comfortable bringing my truck. I look forward to continuing to give them my business. What a great team, thank you for all your years of service on my truck and here’s to many more!!

Great service, friendly,helpful staff. Timely maintenance.

Polar Bear Auto Care is a locally owned business and I like that. I have used their services for four years and have been well satisfied on every occasion. Their work is excellent and done when promised. The staff is always very pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. I wouldnt go anywhere else.

I walked into Polar Auto knowing this company has been around for a long time and went in w/a positive first time of dealing w/them.My first encounter was an email. I got a response quickly. Then a phone call on first business day. Spoke w/an outgoing lady named Darla!! She told me bring ur car in and well see what we can do.Following week I came in and she remembered me. She was personable, looked you right in the eyes, had answers for you, and pretty knowledgeable about the product.My repairs were dealings w/my air conditioner. The car is a 2013 Buick Enclave. I was worried it was too new of a car for them to know what to do....well that went right out the window after seeing all their top notch cars in the garage on racks getting some kind of repair. I thought, OK they know what their doing. My car ended up being a tedious 4day project. It was a big job and they were working on it in 103° weather! Kudos to their mechanical team!!Also to top it off they gave a 3yr. OR 36,000 mile warranty for their work!!😁I was extremely happy, a.c. works great, and the hubby and kids are happy to be cooled off in our new a.c. system!Thank you Darla and everyone at Polar Bear Auto that helped us through our troubling time!!Angela.

My AC had not been checked in over 10 years. They did a thorough inspection and found leaks aged hose and lines. Very nice folks there. Didnt know they are a full mechanical shop. A good place to bring your vehicle.

I found Polar Bear purely by accident but I’m very happy with them. They were very professional and worked with me

Great group of people, very professional, and honest.

Great place for auto service on my 1998 GMC truck. This is my go to auto repair shop.

The folks at Polar Bear are really great! They have worked on both of our cars and have done a great job. They are a little more expensive but do a great job. Very reliable and professional.Thank you!

Good place to go for your A/C troubles. Very knowledgeable people. They know their business and are good about explaining the issues before working on your car.

Excellent service. AC works great, oil change done on time like promised. Kevin and Art are excellent.Thank you.

These guys are great! Prompt, thorough and honest. Also good detectives. I had a weird noise coming from the front right section of my car. Under the right conditions, I would hear it every morning. They found it and fixed it! I am thrilled. I totally trust these folks to treat my car as their own.

Was told they rebuild ac pumps and was told they had one in stock. So I went down to vet the part which they had to order a week out. Car quest sent me on a goose chase.

The staff at Polar Bear Auto Care were so kind and knowledgeable. My Ford Taurus 2003 was having air compressor issues, and they quickly performed a recovery on it so we could perform the repairs ourselves. They also recharged my system quickly and even explained how the AC system worked too. 5/5 stars and would absolutely come back again!

I have been using Polar Bear for any A/C repairs for about 20 years.As I keep cars a long time (my current ride, in 2020, is a 2004) I want the repairs to be done right, and only once. I get that from Kevin and crew at Polar Bear. My latest need, an AC compressor, was done during this Covid-19 period. Kevin sanitized everything he or I touched, from the ball point pen on the counter, to the cars door handle and key ring. (Almost) needless to say, both car and I are running quite well, after our Polar Bear visit. My air conditioner now has a three year warranty. I wish I had one for myself.

One of the last parts of a motorhome restoration with engine rebuild, was the ac part of the equation.Whilst i did everything else my self,i felt there was more to this than i wanted to take on .After some research i chose Polar Bear Auto.From the beginning Kevin was upfront about what i needed and was happy to educate me how all the components work together and as a whole.Whilst this project went over my budget,through no-bodies fault,i felt what he was proposing to do, was what had to be done to have a trouble free cooling system.I happily paid the bill & so far everything is working as it should.Im happy,wife is happy,and i know if i have a problem i can take it back with confidence it will be taken care of .Would reccomend anyone to take their vehicle to Polar Bear Auto. for ac work.

Ive taken my Ford Ranger to Polar Bear for multiple fixes over the last few years and they always do a good job and at a reasonable price. So far, even the temporary fix of my a/c 2 years ago is holding strong. Saved me almost a grand! Ill continue to bring my vehicles to these guys and recommend them to everyone I know. :)Update 2021: I had an oil leak that we thought was the rear main seal... but after multiple attempts of replacing the seal, they discovered it was the main bearing cap. They got it fixed and didnt charge me for the extra labor. Once again, Im super happy with these guys for their integrity and honesty. Highly recommended!

Phil in parts is very knowledgeable and knew how to.make my custom a/c hoses. Very nice people.

I have had my RV in for service several times over the past several years. Truly professional and do not overcharge. they find the best solutions and then explain options or best choice. Customer for life with Polar Bear.

They Werent Able To Do Anything For Me But They Do Alot With A/C This Is The Place To Come

Was able to drop off my vehicle and use the courtesy car that was readily available. Fixed my car at an affordable price, doing the job right the first time. Would highly recommend as a one stop shop for all your cars needs.

Would go back to these guys in a heartbeat. They were thorough, honest, took the time to explain everything in detail and took the time to evaluate the entire car for safety and recall issues. You dont find this level of care, integrity and customer service anywhere anymore. Highly, highly, highly recommend!!!

Ive solicited service from PB multiple times over the years. Everytime has been a pleasant and pleasing experience. I love recommending them to others needing service. PB has always been attentive to my needs, professional, warm, and positively responsive to any post service concerns. They are truly the service center most consumers dream of having. Their cost is reasonable and they are honest. There maybe other good service centers, but I doubt there are any better service centers. Polar Bear is the place to go.

I love my 1992 Accord and as much as how old it is, Polar Bear took care of it with no hesitation. They were honest with the process and will take their time in the diagnosis versus just trouble shooting the issue (glues and duct tape). They are my go to when it comes to delicate matters for my Accord. Thank you, Polar bear.

Very honest and straight forward in my opinion. It was not worth it to fix the A/C in my car because it is old, but would recommend service to others.

I was going to get my ac charged here but ort or art who answered was extremely rude and asked why i would be asking that when asking what a recharge would cost after their initial inspection. Then questioned why i even needed a recharge after deleting my vans rear ac. Theb proceeded to hangup on me. I called back and another employee answered who helped with all the information. Dont feel comfortable going now though being ort knows my car and seems like the kind of guy to sabotage something.. guess i wont get to see what all the good reviews are about. 2 stars because the second guy was nice. If i was the owner id fire ort unless he adjusted his attitude.

Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Took the time to explain everything really well and very professional.

Ive been taking my car to Polar Bear for a couple of years now and I am very happy with the care they have shown to my vehicle and to me. The service is great, and they are very courteous and knowledgeable. I dropped my car off twice without calling ahead and they were very agreeable about fitting me in (although I usually make an appointment which works better for everyone). As a single woman I have been a little concerned about being taken advantage of, but I havent felt that to be an issue here. I have an older Toyota which will probably keep running forever, so Ill be continuing to visit Polar Bear and Im very happy to be doing so.

I took my 2015 Nissan here for AC repair after a recommendation for my husbands friend. I am so glad that I did! The previous mechanic I took it to charged me over $400 and still didnt fix it. Polar Bear had it fixed for me the very next day!! I am so happy with the sevice here, and my AC works AMAZING now! Thank you, Keith!!

I had a very positive experience with 2 of my vehicles.The rear a/c of a specialized van for my wheelchair bound son was repaired when another shop said they couldn’t do it. They were extremely accommodating with the sensitivity of the time constraints needed to get it done fast and also fixed a broken step at no charge to me.Also repaired the a/c on my camaro, valve cover seals, and the rack and pinion.Every employee I encountered in person or on the phone was friendly, personable and helpful. They actually answer their phone calls and call you back!I will use this company from now on for all of my Automotive needs.Darla, you’re a doll. Art you are awesome.Kevin, you went above and beyond. I cannot thank you enough.

Everyone was helpful and my air conditioning issues were resolved promptly. The folks who were working on my car found a problem with one of my tail lights and after getting my permission fixed it.

Only place to take your vehicle for a/c repairs. Not the least expensive but quality work with a outstanding warranty.

My air conditioning in my 2002 Subaru was quickly fixed. They also looked at my head gasket, which another mechanic told me had to be replaced. Kevin suggested (over making a profit) that I could just keep an eye on the oil level and it wasnt worth having the head gasket fixed. Honest, competent mechanics.

Art was very nice. However, I was disappointed that after paying approximately $1500.00 in 2016, I was only able to use the air conditioner 3 summers. I paid $1200 this year (2020) to fix it. Thats a lot of money!Heres hoping it lasts a long-long time.

My father and I have gone here for years. I have not regretted coming here for service, ever. You need service or repairs for your vehicle, think no further than Polar Bear Auto Care.

Very nice people, on point and communication was good from beginning to end. Fair pricing. Well recommend to anyone.

Great service! Very fair priced. Nice to repairs done right the first time. Very sharp crew I will be using polar bear from now on and suggest the same to anyone who asks

They are always fantastic to work with. Great place to get your car fixed.

The entire team is professional, knowledgeable and efficient. Exceptional customer service every step of the process.

Great customer service. They were very clear on the process and steps after I dropped Off my vehicle. They were also clear on all charges and costs. Would def recommend this place.

Recently, I had to part company with my local Dodge dealer for all future work on my 2010 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4. Their charges had become excessive and I had evidence of their prior unethical, if not fraudulent, work on my baby. So I decided to give The Bear a try. This place is quite a drive from my home in Davis, but I knew they had been there, quietly doing business focused on auto AC, for decades. But first, I parked and scoped the place out for a while from the street. What I found was a clean, well-maintained and painted shop--with mid-to-late-aged mechanics who didnt look like crack-heads and did look like theyd been doing this for quite a while. Then, I dropped the Ram off with them, with its broken AC, to see if theyd reach the same needs conclusions as had two other places. Not only did they do that, but their price was $2400 versus two dealers who wanted $3000--a 20% savings for me! Lastly, The Bear said it would be a 3-day job and Id have the vehicle back by COB on Friday. On a whim--and a hunch--I showed up early at noon on Friday and the mechanic was just finishing the road test. Needless to say, I was a happy camper! The Bear will very definitely be getting more of my business, if and when more stuff breaks on my Ram. I rest my case.

I am very happy with the work they did on my vehicle.

The people there are fabulous. I recommand this place and I wouldnt take my vehicle anywhere else. My car drives great. They told me what was wrong, how to fix it and had reasonable prices. You can call and make appointments for your regular maintenance, or if its an emergency they are the company for you.

A great experience, and I am not the type of guy that writes a review. Good people, doing the right thing and taking care of the customer properly. Had two facilities before that could not figure out my dual air. Polar Bear did.

I’ve been taking my vehicles to Polar Bear for many years. I have always found them to be honest and trustworthy. They communicate well and I’ve been able to depend on them to provide quality work. You’ll have to go a long way to find a better shop.

The overall experience from polar bear auto was amazing from the first phone call to picking up my vehicle. Not to mention they saved me $1000.00 from other quotes i received for the same work. i will be using them for all future maintenance and repairs.

My AC works now.

They were great. Super friendly and explained everything very clearly.

This crew is the best. Ive been with them for so long I cant remember how I found them. Theyre knowledgeable, thorough and easy to talk to. Highly recommend them.

I have been bringing my cars here for years. Good honest work and they always take the time to explain. Best in the area no doubt!

The service from polar bear auto was amazing from booking my appointment to picking up my car. Excellent service, honest reliable auto service. Thank you again.

Had transmission replaced (used), excellent work. Warranty on it too !!! Always the best, had smog done recently too, passed.Straight shooters, with Polar/Overstreet, I always know honest truth about vehicle and their work. Find a good honest shop and hold them for life.

Honest, great work and they get it done right the first time.

Repaired my ac not just service it like others did for years, found leaks and fixed them. was happy with the service.

This repair shop was referred to me by a previous owner of another auto repair shop. Quite a compliment I think. Anyway, I used their services for a costly repair (a lot less costly than the dealer), the car repair was repaired timely as promised, I was given the a standard warranty and have had no problem since the repair.

Polar Bear Auto Center, are very friendly and professional. They fixed my air conditioner, they had done an excellent job. Everything works very well. Would recommend them to everyone.ThanksEric

Excellent service! Thank you again Art and the crew at Polar Bear! I will recommend this place to everyone who needs A/C, electrical, or automotive!
