See all

I brought my 2015 Charger to Robert here at Accurate Alignment and Break Co. at the recommendation of my boss. My brakes were squealing/grinding pretty badly due to my own negligence. So I dropped it off a late friday afternoon. Robert let me know he would get it handled right away and get back to me. I heard from him the next morning and my car was ready for pick up. The car has never braked so well. It's better than when I first got the car from Dodge. He found the best course of action rather than just throw new parts at it and charge me an arm and a leg. It saved me a ton of money, and he was fast and courteous on top of it. I recommend all my friends, family, and anyone who mentions having brake/alignment problems at work or in the world now. He has a new dedicated customer after this visit! read more

I've been to Robert twice since my last review. He's very kind and straightforward. Does great work and doesn't try to "pull one over on you." Hard and honest work. He's the only guy I use for my brakes and rotors. read more

I made my last car payment the day before thanksgiving and on my way home from work my breaks started grinding I was recommended to Robert on Friday morning so I called him and he said if I bring it in the next half hour he would do them. I am a single woman and this was my first issue with my car since I bought it so I was a little stressed. He explained everything to me when I picked my car up and showed me my old break pads and how bad they were. He made me feel very comfortable and my breaks are awesome now!! Thank you!! read more

Honest and knowledgeable, with great experience behind him. No problem here! Great job. Truck runs straight. Also brought my attention to another possible issue with my braking system which I'm taking to the dealer because it's most likely covered under warranty. Thanks read more

I never use Yelp but I thought I should in this case . I took my car in to get alignment done because one front tire was bald . I got new tires and I didn't want this to happen again so I thought it needed to be aligned.The owner did an evaluation on my alignment and told me that it was perfectly aligned and it didn't need anything. He didn't charge me anything . Wow , what an honest mechanic . I highly recommend Accurate alignment if you're looking for an honest mechanic . He is in Lakeside but that's only 30 minutes from downtown and worth the drive . read more

Extremely horrible customer service. Was running a few minutes late and kept him updated on my status and was extremely rude when I showed up. Also, ripped the money from my hands, since he was in such a rush to leave. On a positive note, my vehicle sounds/runs better. But I will be taking my business elsewhere. Not professional at all. read more

Hands down the best brake service I have received. Robert is extremely professional and the price for my brakes to be done could not be beat anywhere else. He showed me everything that was being done and was done very quickly. Helluva nice guy and I will be a returning customer for sure! read more

Absolute best when it comes to alignment. Robert is an all-around great guy and explained to me what was wrong and what he was going to do to fix it. He owns and operates his own business and has been doing mechanical work his whole life. He didn't try to up-sell anything and got right down to the point. He made sure I was happy with my car post-service and even checked the tire pressure and filled the low ones with air to make sure the alignment is proper. I will definitely be coming back and will be referring people here. read more

Quoted me $40 over the phone to straighten out my steering wheel, ended up only charging me $20 Does alignments old school, no computers involved. Will patronize again. read more

My family and I have been going to Robert for our brake repairs for some time now, and have never EVER had any issue. Extremely quick, helpful, and reliable. He takes the time to actually physically show you the issue, explain whats happening, and fixes it promptly. Would highly recommend to anyone! (Please note: location has changed to Vine St, and is open half day on Saturday) read more

He's good, he's fast, he's fair, and you can trust Robert. As a single senior, I have been going to him for years. He is what mechanics used to be :-) The place is a little hard to find the first time, but it's worth the search. read more

I'm glad I brought my car. He did a great job and was honest at all times. Definitely coming back. read more

After 13 years of going to Robert for brake, tire and alignment needs, I am leaving my final review.. I'm moving away from CA. Over the years it has been so awesome to know I had a place to take our vehicles and know it was honest and fairly priced. Today I went in for my last service.. Brake checkup... Best of luck and continued success Robert... I only hope I can find someone as good as you up in Washington. Sean read more

Robert spent the time to show me what repairs were needed and gave sound advice, so that I felt comfortable and knew I was making the right decision. My car is fully restored to before my accident and at a fair price. Robert is a man of his word. read more

The man was very helpful, he got me 4 new tires for a very good price. . . . . . read more

Went to Robert at Accurate to get a second opinion because True Alignment told me I needed Bushings ($850) on my newer car. Thats very usual for a newer car especially since the car is hardely driven. All that was wrong was a bad tire. Thank Goodness. read more

I've taken my truck a few other places and seen to find myself right back at Roberts shop. He is truly the only person I have found that Can get my trucks driving right. I have aftermarket spring spacers in my 1999 dodge 3500 and it threw the alignment way off. Robert took excellent care of it and made sure I knew exactly what was going on every step of the way. I Will be a lifetime customer. read more

I would def recommend this place to everyone who's looking for alignment work. Robert was very honest and even tho my mustang was difficult to work on he made it work and fixed my issues. He is straight forward and will tell you exactly what will need to be done so you're not in the dark. Great experience and I will def be coming back for work on my other cars in the future! read more

This is, hands-down, the absolute best automotive brake shop that I have ever been to! Over the years, having major corporate-owned brake shops work on my vehicles, that have failed to resolve simple brake issues, I finally found a no-BS shop that I am happy with. Robert, the proprietor/operator, will tell you exactly what needs to be done and will not try to up-sale or make you buy parts or services that you don't need. He is a down to earth guy, and has great customer service! I highly recommend Accurate Alignment & Brake Company to everyone who wants their brakes done right and at a fair cost! read more

I don't understand what these other reviews are talking about. If it was not for the fact that they specifically reference the name of the owner, I would assume that they were praising the wrong place. I was very disappointed by the experience. The owner also did not honor the Yelp discount (previously) posted above. I showed him the discount on my phone and he said "I don't know what that is." UPDATE: He has now taken the discount off Yelp. Fascinating. read more

Robert is the man! Extremely detailed in what he does for you and your vehicle! I highly recommend Accurate Alignment & Brake. Super rates!! Customer for life... read more

I have gone to this shop for years for my alignment and etc - since they were next door to Blockbuster - now I am going to their new location. Their prices have always been reasonable, vehicles aligned well, and they have never tried to sell me anything I didn't need - which I really appreciate often being on a tight budget - read more

As a young woman it's very hard to find a place that respects your time and money! Robert and his team have a reasonable price for my car and we're super helpful! read more

Had the best experience at this honest, wonderful establishment ever! Lets face it, who isn't a little leery about taking their car in to a new place. Robert was professional, reliable, and explained everything to me. Plus, when it turned out that there was nothing wrong with my car, he didn't even charge me for the diagnostic. I tried to get him to accept money because I felt bad but he wouldn't take it. Because of this outstanding service, I am a customer for life. Go here, you won't be sorry. Thanks, Robert! read more

Robert is great! He is very honest and doesnt overcharge.

I found this place when I picked up my brother when he left his truck off for front end repairs. I was so impressed with his knowledge and honesty so I then had him look at issues on my Excursion and F150 truck and I was happy with his diagnoses. I was hell bent on replacing my front end parts and he showed me that they were working properly and did not need replacing. I have since had him do the brakes on both trucks and will use him when my trucks eventually need front end work. read more

I've found my alignment and brake guy. Alignment is one of those things that I can't do myself and Robert showed me that he wasn't trying to get rich because i drove in. He's one of those guys that likes figuring things out and he's good at it. read more

Robert has been doing my alignments for years, he is always honest and does a great job. I would recommend him to anyone, Todd Lester read more

My family has been using Accurate Alignment & Brake for decades. I wouldn't trust anyone else to do my brakes, alignment, tires and front-end work. Robert is more than fair with his pricing and NEVER tries to sell you something that isn't needed. At times, he will alert you to something and tell you "when" he should take another look for a possible repair. My brothers and I have recommended Robert to many of our friends and acquaintances over the years and everyone has been very pleased with the work and value piricing. Regarding Robert not honoring a price... that has never occurred and often he doesn't charge anything when he really should! Robert always sticks to his pricing, however, if you ask for an alignment and you need new shocks, struts and/or other items fixed first, then he won't do the alignment because it won't take. He's honest that way!!! read more
