Used their services last month on our Ford Escape. Awesome place!…read moreWe had recently noticed the always dreadful and sometimes fear inducing "Check Engine" light. A million things run through your head when you see that, my automatic response as a worry wort is "Oh my God, the car is going to explode" haha We took our car to another place in A.G. that we are used to going to, even though we just recently moved to Santa Maria. We were told that the light meant we needed a new thermostat because the engine wasn't heating up all of the way. They called us the next day with an estimate and it nearly made my brain explode, I could not compute O_o . So I decided to call around in town and when I called Auto Professionals I talked to a very nice girl who ended up quoting me a price that was 50% less than the original. So I decided to make an appointment. Got there early and they were already booming with business. They were nice enough to give us a ride back to our house because it would be a few hours. It ended up taking double the time, which was the only negative. We didn't have anything to do that day except to watch a lot of Dateline Real-life Mysteries, so it all worked out. When it was ready they picked us back up from our house and drove us on over. When we got there we found out they were able to save us a bit more money because a certain part wasn't needed. That activated my super happy and dorky "I saved money" grin. ^__^ I was very happy with the experience, Thank you!

A big nail found its way into our brand new tire while we were on a long journey. Although Francisco did not have my tire in stock, he drove nearby to get it and provided exceptional and professional service throughout. Andrew was able to put on the new tire and did a great job. It's hard to find trustworthy, hard working and good people--Francisco deserves an A+. I highly recommend Big Brand Tire in Santa Maria.

This station for decades has always had a pretty good reputation for service and smogs. Knowing it…read morehad been sold in recent time I still did not hesitate to take my car here for the bi annual smog. Welp, my car didn't even make it that far as a check engine light came on and I was told there was no point in doing the smog as it would not pass until the death red light was extinguished. The guys here were very helpful and knowledgeable. Lorenzo explained by physically showing me under the hood what needed to done, how long it would take and how much of my life savings would be drained to complete this. While the dollar amount is high, for not having my car ever seriously serviced, I understood why. The decision to leave my car was easy , as Lorenzo's effort and time to educate me and explain in detail what needed to be done was comforting, I was confident my car was in great hands. While they had my car, Lorenzo called and said he noticed I would need an oil change soon and asked if I wanted him to do it as he had the car opened up already. I was hesitant at first, but just had him do it as I did not want to make another appointment in a couple of weeks for oil. Finally, a couple of days later and I was picking up my car. Lorenzo went over what he did. Took the time to show me what he changed out. Compared my parts to the new ones he put in , and it was like night and day, or clogged to unclogged. Let me know how my MPg's should show a difference and let me know of a couple of other things I should get done for safety reasons or looked at without any pressure of them doing it. I checked out with the cashier, paying exactly what I was quoted and the owner was so nice in giving g me a discount on my after the fact oil change. As I was leaving the owner, Gus came out and thanked me personally for trusting them with my car and for my business. That was awesome and memorable as now days, it's rare anyone says thank you or shows gratitude, and maybe even more rarer that it would be the owner of an establishment. Finding a service station that is trustworthy, knowledgeable, transparent , has integrity and fair in pricing is just as rare. But here it is. If your car is in need of any type of service or needs to be looked at, come see the guys at Old Orcutt Kwik Stop first. If they cannot fix it , they will advise you on who can , and at the very least, you will leave a little more knowledgeable about your car then when you first drove in. And as an added bonus, you might have a great chance of meeting the new owner Gus, guaranteed, he will make you smile.

That wasn't in fact I was embarrassed because I should've known better, but they took a look and all is well being new to the area. I was looking for a shop that I could start to use on a regular basis and would be there for repairs of ever really needed them and I believe I found the shop. Chris was a person that helped me and I appreciated his input.
