Place is always busy, so plan ahead. Excellent service and reasonable costs. They work to get you the best price for parts and get work done quickly. Highly recommended.
Excellent people and excellent service! I was here from out of town and had no idea where to turn to get my car fixed. They were personable, they were friendly, they were quick and thorough and they will be my new go to repair facility for anything I need. I recommend them highly!
B and C always does a great job. Ive been a customer since 1984 and have never had a problem . The mechanics are knowledgeable and professional,
This is an amazing repair shop. Great customer service. Up front and no hidden fees. Quick turn around. Im so happy with the transmission swap they did for me. Please check them out you wont be sorry.
Honest and patient customer service and quick service in the shop. These guys have been doing this a long time and it shows. Thanks for helping me get the a/c running COLD in my Jeep so I can get it back on the road!👍🔧🏁
I’ve been getting my vehicles repaired at B&C for years, very reliable, great pricing, helpfully and great knowledgeble service experts. I highly recommend there services.Thank you B&C
Honest and trustworthy mechanics that stand behind their work. Fair prices and quality service. Thanks Ray and Corey.
I had run over a large piece of a tire and it had ripped off the under carriage from my van. It was salvageable and B & C auto reattached it quickly and made adjustments where the clips weren’t able to be used. I am so grateful for their honest and thorough work. The following week I began hearing a rattle in the front right wheel well. Ray took it on several test drives until he was able to locate the source of the problem. He didn’t stop until it was taken care of. Good mechanics are hard to come by, but great mechanics are even harder to find. B&C auto is definitely the only place I would trust for my car maintenance and repair.
Referred by a friend; and met all the expectations of a family owed and operated business. Now I plan to refer my friends.Thank you !!
The actual service of my car was fine. However, they are not following COVID protocols and no one in the office, and mechanics when they come into the office, are wearing masks. My husband said something, and the response was we are around each other all the time and you are wearing a mask so you are fine. Well customers are not around them all the time and the only way masks work is if both people are wearing them. With new and more contagious virus variations in SD county, businesses need to be even more vigilant.
Ray has knowledge of cars and trucks i didnt even know existed. They can handle anything you throw at them including diesel. Totally amazing
Im always pleased with work done on my car and with the friendly conversation in the office. Got a real treat this time in meeting Amy Brown and her daughter (Thanks to Ray). Ive moved out of the area but will continue to take my car for check-ups and work here.
Honest work at honest prices! These guys truly know what they are doing, and use only quality parts which means your truck will RUN! Do not waste time and money going anywhere else. Only mechanics I have work on my 2500 ram Cummins. After multiple terrible dealership experiences, this is the only business I trust.
Cory is very knowledgeable and is consulted with on every service. Trucks are their specialty. Service was a bit slow on this visit but they were short-handed. Havent determined if theyre a whole lot cheaper than the dealer but they will work with you.
Excellent service from very knowledgeable and honest mechanics.
Honest, knowledgeable staff always takes good care of you. Excellent family run business. I am always taken care of when I have to go there.
Great service, excellent price, and great people!
Our family loves B&C. Excellent work.
The best mechanic I have ever used!
Cory and Ray are absolutely first class and they run an amazing business there. They care about their customers, their staff is fully trained, and they exceeded all my expectations. They did major repairs plus my performance upgrades to my Ford Raptor Truck. Highly recommend!
Absolutely amazing shop. The guys are true diesel pros...genuinely care about their work and making sure the customer is happy. Bought a lift pump from them for a self install and Cory told me to swing back by so they could check the fuel pressure and how the truck was running. If you’re in the North County, go here. Great prices, and even better service.
My wife and I have been taking our vehicles to B&C for the last 16 or 17 years and are personal friends with the owners. This is the most honest auto repair service I have ever gone to. B&C has built its reputation with honesty and integrity like none other. Anytime I have a problem with any vehicle of mine, B&C is the only place I’m going. Oh yeah, just picked up my truck from there the other day after having it serviced; And yes, once again, I’m happy!-Chris York, Vista
F250 6.0 Powerstroke. Cory is great, knowledgeable and straight forward. These guys know diesel trucks, especially the 6.0 powerstroke. They dont mind answering questions and have a long list of satisfied customers. Highly recommend.
Had a great, first experience at B&C Auto Repair. Cory helped check me in for an oil change and tire rotation. I really like how you can create an online account to request appointments and save maintenance history, and they also have a direct text line to easily communicate and get an update on your vehicle. I also had a musty stench coming from my AC vents, and they provided a treatment to get rid of the nasty smell. I plan on making B&C Auto Repair my go-to for all my auto repair and maintenance needs.
We take both our diesels to B&C. They have taken good care of the 03 F-350 for years. Real experts, good prices and always straightforward. Just took our 18 Grand Cherokee 3.0 diesel to them for routine service. Again, they are experts with the intricacies of this relatively new engine. Lots of good pointers and things to watch out for.Highly recommended.
Cory and his team did a great job repairing my radiator and diagnosing my Dodge Diesel engine issues. Ill be using Cory for quite sometime. Its rare you run into a mechanic like this.
I have been looking for a real honest auto repair company for years and have been disappointed from mom and pop shops to big name Carlsbad dealerships. One would think that if they sell the brand auto, they should be able to do maintenance and repairs . I have been in Oceanside this time for the last 26 years.Today, after a neighbors recommendation;I had the best service and workmanship that I have experienced after all the years so far.Thank you all very much, the wonderful folks at B and C Auto.They say what they mean, and mean what they say. Promised what they say and kept their word.I was aboard for about 5 hours, my choice to stick around. Real customer service and workmanship. They listen and explain your opinions. All hands professional and focused on serving your automotive needs.My wife and I are very pleased and Thank God for a garage that operates as B&C does.We are not teenagers; we have had a few cars and service dealers over the past 45 years in So Cal.We are going to only B and C Auto for our automotive business. Please call as planned reservations are great for planning. We did.Thank youWinston and Irene
My parents have had their cars serviced for here years. Every year my family would travel to Mexico and we always entrust B&C to ensure our cars were ready for the long road trip! I will always support a family business. If you want superlative customer service and people you can trust...look no further!
Ray was great. They took very good care of me for a reasonable price. Will have all my repairs and service done there
So I originally took my car to the local Chrysler dealership to have some recalls addressed. They cam back after having the car for several days saying they think it is a blown head gasket. Mind you my car is a 2012 with less than 90k miles. The car had no symptoms of a blown head gasket at all so I instead picked up the car and took it to B&C. Best decision I ever made. The staff there are amazing and get down on a personal level with you. They understand what the customer needs. No BS at all. The owner even took me into the garage and we talked for at least 30 minutes about cars in general while we inspected my car together. He was awesome. I would recommend them to anyone. The price I paid was very reasonable for all the services I had done and was still less than half of what the dealership wanted and it wasnt even a blown head gasket. Seriously if you need a good honest mechanic, take your car to B&C.
As a business owner, cost and efficiency of service is critical when it comes to my equipment. My truck and my car are my life blood. Ray and Cory have proven to me for years that they provide me both things on a consistent basis. I could not recommend them more.
B & C takes care of my 1st gen Sequoia like were family. They are always direct and clear with communication, and I trust them to keep my 2004 beast safe and running. Same day repairs are often the case, and their prices and workmanship are top quality. Plus, they are locally owned and employ Vista people.
These guys are top notch and honest as they come. Ive used them multiple times and have been meaning to write them a review. Highly recommended!
The people at B&C are the best. they are truly concerned about you and your safety. they will try there best to accommodate your time request. i went in on Monday at about 3:15 and asked if they could do a oil change they told me that they could not and asked if i could bring my car back the next morning but i could not i asked if i could bring it back at about 3 and they told me that was a bad time because it was close to closing time but they told me to bring it there and they would get if done. if you do not have a place that you take you car to this is the place and if you do already have a place you may want to try B&C.
This place is great always know they are doing a good job- on my truck!!!As always great service
B&C Auto Repair continues a long history of reliable, prompt and reasonably priced maintenance in North County. My family has been customers at Ray and Corys shop over 2 decades. They are efficient, look for the most competitive parts pricing, and they earn your trust. Todays service for my Honda Accord was perfect. And as always, B&C truly engages their customers with an optimistic perspective on life! It couldnt be better.
My 2007 GMC 2500HD had error code P0087, fuel rail low pressure. After speaking with Cory he suggested installing an AirDog fuel pump. This was the solution to the issue I had and the problem solved. It was done quickly and on time. Many thanks!
These guys are top notch and honest as they come. Ive used them multiple times and have been meaning to write them a review. Highly recommended!
I drive an old 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan with 213k miles. This car is still running strong because of honest and great mechanics at B&C auto. They make you feel like family, so you can trust them like family.
B & C Auto Repair will not let you down. The best auto repair business ever. They repair everything. They have the knowledge and tools to compete every auto repair. Ray, Cory and their mechanics and whole team have been the most knowledgeable and easy to work with auto repair shop Ive delt with locally in 60+ years. Thank you for your service B&C Auto Repair. Jeff D Lees.
On a cross-country trip our car developed a clunking noise in the rear end.I took it to B&C the next morning. They quickly diagnosed the problem, ordered the parts and had us back on the road once the parts arrived. All at a fair price.A family-owned company where everyone was incredibly friendly. Id recommend them to anyone who needs repairs.
Thanks for the new alternator and tune up on the #7point3 White Buffalo. Great job
Wouldnt trust them to change the air in my tire
Love B&C for twenty years. I drive 1 1/2 hours each way to them for service. HONEST, TRUSTWORTHY, FAMILY ORIENTED, NICE PEOPLE.
I am so glad I came here to get a 2nd opinion on my car. They were fast, friendly, and educated me a lot on my car more than I ever was told from other mechanics. They saved me a headache of buying another vehicle and just fixed my car problem instantly. Will definitely recommend and definitely be coming back. Thank you guys so much!!! Youre awesome!!!
Our first diesel truck (old 2001 Chevy) and our first diesel service. Making the appointment was easy. Cory was fantastic - kept me up to date as his service progressed and made sensible recommendations that he explained well. He realized we were newbies and patiently explained our engines systems and how best to take care of them. Super nice guy; super nice people. The real deal. Well definitely be back.
You guys always do such a fine job. Thats why we keep coming back. Best wishes.
I am really pleased with my experience here. They were very friendly, did the work quickly, and i trust their prices to be fair as well.
B & C always lets me know whats going on with my car and always explains it clearly in a way that you can understand and does not try to sell you anything that doesnt have to be done. They will also tell you of any future work you might need to have done.
I want to write a recommendation on B&C Auto in Vista on 918 Postal Way. I was quoted a clutch job on my car by 2 other garages and when I came to B and C they came in at $500 less on the same work. Its not just the price but I have serviced all 3 of my family cars with them and I know they are honest and will return the car in record time. Thank You for great service.
Very professional, knowledgeable and honest. One of very few repair facilities I would recommend and the only one I would recommend in North San Diego County.
I always get great service here. B&C Auto Repair is honest and reliable. I have complete trust they are being up front with me when I come in with car problems. They always let me know what my options are since I am on a tight budget. They make you feel more like family then customers.😊
B & C is a three generation family owned business...they pride themselves in superior service coupled with the knowledge of latest technology used in the vehicles they repair...Trustworthy, fair and they back their work 100%I have been a customer since 1980...Thank you for always making sure my vehicles are in tip top shape!Sincerely,Mark
I will never take my 2006 Ford E-350 Diesel van anywhere else. Best service, solutions and peace of mind. I brought them my dream van in awful condition, I mean, a clothes hanger was holding my fan clutch together!! They made it all work. Now Im heading out around the country towing a 74 Airstream Argosy trailer! Thanks B&C!! #ourtinywander
B&C auto is the best. Ray fixed my daughter-in-law’s brakes after she had them unsuccessfully repaired at another shop. And he did it for less.Thanks again
Great family owned business. Been with them for over 5 years and always have had honest and quality service. I take my cars to them before I go on any road trips and have always made it back home without mechanical problems. I trust B & C Auto. Thank you B & C!
B&C is the best! Thanks Ray, Cynthia, and Corey for all the great service. In and out quick with great work and prices!
B&C was great. My car wouldnt start and it turned out to be just a bad battery. But they figured it out and had be back on my road trip to Tucson in a matter of an hour. Most other customers who came through seemed calm and satisfied with their work.
Very friendly, kmoeledgable, and helpful guys.
I have been here a few times for some maintenance on my Class A diesel RV. Cory and Ray did a super job with everything. I highly recommend anyone with a diesel truck or RV to consider using B&C. They are very fair and knowledgeable. I even tried to give a $50 tip to Cory but he refused it. Yes, I am very happy with their service!
Rally appreciate the work they did on my suv. Amazing turnaround, I dropped my car off the day before my scheduled appointment and they were able to diagnose and fix my oil sensor and leak problem the same day. Professional and took the time to really explain everything to me and gave me tips on what maintenance to do to keep my car running great.
Being new to the area we were dreading finding a new mechanic for our diesels. After one bad experience for a simple A/C recharge my husband found B & C Auto Repair in Vista. I am so thankful he called them. They are fair and VERY honest. Cory went through everything in detail, advised us of all our options and completed all the repairs in more than a timely manner! They even detailed my Excursion.....really they did. I thought integrity and customer service were a thing of the past. They have renewed my faith in that. I even witnessed the owner help a young girl that had her car towed in, he test drove it, came back and told her to go buy new tires. He could have easily recommended a bunch of work but did not. Hows that for honesty. This company is family run and TRULY cares. My Excursion hasnt ran this good in a couple years! Thank you Thank you Thank you for a fabulous job! We will be back with our truck!
B&C automotive is clearly a true family owned business that takes pride in their work. They fit me in before the holiday and took great care of my truck. Happy to bring any vehicle to this shop.🙏🤙👏👍
My check engine light was on. They found the code and suggested using a diesel additive to solve the problem. They only charged me for the additive. I know they could have charged me for the labor, but they did not.They have been my diesel mechanics for sometime, because they are thorough in their diagnosis of the problem.
They are such a down to earth family in there! I went in knowing what I needed and they estimated less than 2 other shops for the same services. Not to mention the was honest when I asked if I needed work done to something some other guy said was top priority saying it was minor and could wait. They also offer over the phone estimates! I am new to Oceanside and read multiple reviews from different sources- highly recommended by many!
Great service!
Great friendly, family run shop who always uses OE parts when they work on your car.
B&C has helped me in the pinch many times and everything has always gone smoothly. I would highly recommend them to anyone who cares about a job done right and timely!Just a good old fashioned family run business that cares about their clients and takes pride in their work.Thanks JRP
This place was great! I am from Arizona and was on vacation when my alternator started breaking. They told me they couldnt fix it until tomorrow but after finding out I was on vacation, they helped me out and fixed it that day. They also gave me a 5% thank you discount. They were awesome with my car and had great customer service. I would recommend them to everyone!
Doing business with B&C Auto is always a wonderful experience. They are professional, friendly and always get the job done in a timely manner. I will never go anywhere else. Thank you B&C for always going above and beyond to help me out!
Great repair shop. Was able to take care of my vehicle with a quick turn around. The guys that work there really care!
Gotta love B&C Auto Repair. Just saved another $1000 from Lexus dealer estimate. Concerned, courteous and personable. Thanks guys.
Always a pleasure to go into the shop and hang out while waiting on my truck maintenance. Very professional and family oriented. I would recommend B&C to anybody that needs car or truck repairs.
I live in Vista but work in Orange County. On my way to work my check engine light came on after almost being hit on the freeway. I pulled off and called a few mechanics nearby, but none of them could see me quick enough to get me back on the road and off to work again. They all wanted me to drop off my car and wait (who knows how long) until they had time to check it out. Finally I found these guys at B and C Auto and they immediately did a diagnostics on my car, figuring out the problem and checked out the rest of my car to make sure it was safe to drive. My oil was low, and they topped me off. After a bad morning, it was great to have found them. They were so kind, caring, and of course extremely helpful! They got me out of there in just a few minutes and saved my morning!! I highly recommend them to anyone in the Vista area. Thanks guys!
I am excited to find a reliable, dependable, and trustworthy mechanic. Keep it up guys!
Excellent service and workmanship in a timely manner. Very friendly and positive environment. Highly recommend B&C Auto Repair for your truck or automotive needs.
Very honest and authentic service. I would recommend anyone in need of diesel repair to B&C Auto Repair.
Just had my vehicle serviced at B & C and it was just the friendliest service Ive ever received. Did I mention Knowledgeable! Im always going to get my vehicles serviced at B & C . Thanks Ray and Cory your the best!Had to get shocks, CVC joint replaced this July. The initial estimate was what I expected the cost would have been. After repairs were completed the total cost was far less than the original estimate. Ray and Cory are very good at what they do and honest with their customers!
This was the best place to break down next to ever......My car wouldnt start after I got gas across the street. I screwed around trying to get it started for a couple hours. I walked across the street to B&C and talked to them but it just so happened that the electricity had gone out on the block...I was stressed out because I live in Ocean Beach no where near Vista. I went back to my car screwed with it some more, then went back and asked if I could have it towed to the shop and they could work on it the next day. By that time the electric was back on. I gave them the keys. Called a friend to pick me up. Walked down to the Starbucks a couple blocks away about 20mins later I got a txt saying...YOUR TRUCK WILL BE READY IN 20min. Told my friend not to come. Walked back....it was ready. It was a minor issue with the battery cable. It was fixed! Cant beat honesty and a fair price.
The only place we take our vehicles. Good family owned business, always fair prices, good service, fast turnaround. You know exactly what you are getting at B&C. Highly recommend.
Pure awesomeness!! Took my 02 Ford E350 7.3 diesel van in to have the alignment done. B&C Auto looked over the entire front end and found that the ball joints needed replaced. They emediately notified me and explained what was found and gave me an estimate including a briefing of what the work entailed and the OEM parts they recommend to be used for the job. While they already had the suspension disassembled they called me and provided a recommendation of other preventative maintenance issues that could be taken care of rather inexpensively and save me future down time and money if I chose to take care of at that time. I took them up on the recommendations and they even took care of a few things as an added bonus without charge. I received top notch service. I drive the van today on my daily 50 mile commute (one way) and it was night and day how it handled. Better than new!! I absolutely would recommend their service to anyone who values quality work done right the first time!
B&C Auto always provides honest, quality and reliable vehicle maintenance! Wonderful, family owned business. They always take good care of their customers! Thank you B&C!
Great customer service. Very knowledgeable. I won’t take my diesel anywhere else.
Family run. They are state of the art with years of experience and continued education. I have been going there for 15 years. Ray is straight shooter. Get it done right the first time!
Cory and his father are an amazing mechanics
Nicest experience I’ve had with a mechanic. As a woman, I dread the process of trying to communicate with a mechanic without feeling like I’m being taken advantage of. I was treated kindly and my wallet was treated kindly also.
This family run auto repair business is amazing. They take care of everything and I never feel like I am being taken advantage of. My family has their repairs and maintenance done at B & C as well.
If you want a repair shop that you can trust and interact with personnel who truly care, then the place for you is B&C Auto Repair. The crew is continuously updated on what is new in the repair industry. Pricing is excellent and fair.
Friendly, my work brings all those trucks here
Good, honest people! Charged me less than 1/2 of what Toyota Carlsbad wanted. The guys really know their stuff.
Excellent family service! My experience has always been satisfactory. I highly recommend them 😊
B&C as usual helped us out when we needed them. The team worked us in in spite of a huge backlog of other work. Great to have a reliable, honest, team to help us out with our cars.
Not impressed. May 2018 I called AAA for a dead battery (left my light on). The trainee who showed up jumpstarted my battery backwards, resulting in no power steering or gas getting to the engine, AND THEN THE TOW man yanked & BROKE the spring to my emergency break right in front of me (still broken). My car was then taken to B&C auto, 5 hrs after initial AAA call. I called ahead as they were closing within the hour & my vehicle was on a tow truck headed to B&C, w my German Shepherd who was w me. I explained my situation & the Dad of this father son duo, who reassured me by continually saying not to worry about because “the way I write it up, AAA will reimburse you for any costs“. Well, that never happened because when I went to pick it up, being reimbursed was never mentioned and I had to pay $194 out-of-pocket. I now have power steering because they of the “cleaning“ & Valvoline fuel injector put into my gas tank (pretty sure I could’ve bought same at Walmart for $5), but my emergency brake is still useless and does not work.How would I know if I was being ripped off or not? I’m a young female who was frantically trying to google their proposed service but ultimately had to sign on the dotted line that I’d pay when I picked up my vehicle.Are these guys likable? Sure. Do they inflate prices for unfamiliar customers who wouldn’t know any better before they had a chance to do a google search ? Absolutely.Go elsewhere unless you like throwing your $$ away.Turns out other places charged (on average) HALF of what I paid at B&C, and who knows if it even fixed the problem when all I originally needed was a jump start?Positive note: Allowed my dog inside w air conditioner & gave her water.
Friendly and straight forward staff. Fixed my AC issue for around $100 while another shop in San Marcos quoted me $1300! Highly recommended!
Ray was very helpful and the prices are good. I keep coming back because the service is great.
This is the best shop in North County. Cory has a wealth of knowledge and is very trustworthy. I would recommend B&C over anyone.
Honest mechanics you can count on! The staff is extremely experienced and provide excellent customer service throughout the entire process!
Glad I brought my diesel truck to B&C Auto. Their service was outstanding!
After power seat problem was misdiagnosed by dealer, who quoted $1900 for their fix, I got a salvage part and brought it to Ray. He figured out it was not their $1900 problem and fixed it for under $300. I took the dealer’s $150 diagnostic bill back and am now waiting for the promised check. No apologies and not taking care of the salvage part I paid $195 for.If that doesn’t convince you to go to B & C, well I guess I can’t help you.
