First, I do want to take a moment to thank my service advisor Andrew, he is everything you want a service to be. He was very professional, detail oriented and most importantly, he kept in constact contact with me in all of my visits to the shop. The other thing I really liked about this place was the way that they send you a detailed report with pictures of the issues they find with your vehicle and classify them as urgent/routine. This really helped me proritize the services that were really needed versus the ones that could wait for another visit. And lastly, I love the fact that at no point in our interaction did I feel pressured into any services or was I forced to use them for specific products. I told them I was getting my Tires at costco, mostly for the cost and they were very honest with me when they said they could not beat their prices. For these reasons is why I am now choosing ABC Auto Care as my primary source for Auto repair needs.

If you're looking for an honest, highly skilled mechanic, S & M Automotive is outstanding and checks so many boxes! I come down from Ventura to see "Shady", and his name couldn't be more ironic, because there's nothing shady about him or his work. He's been maintaining my 2005 Lexus SC430 and has saved me a boatload of money on repairs and maintenance over the years. He's respectful, friendly, and clearly takes pride in getting things right. My most recent service made the car run like it did when it was new. The engine is humming smoothly again, something I've honestly NEVER experienced after a repair or routine maintenance anywhere else and I've owned this car since 2007. And while the name S & M Automotive might make some people do a double take (hahaha), the only thing painful here is realizing how unnecessary other repair bills can be once you find a mechanic this good and dependable. If you want honest, skilled automotive service, S & M Automotive is absolutely trustworthy and dependable.

I am so glad that they are here to serve the local community. When I went in for the initial appraisal, I was met and helped by Eric and Ashley. Eric went over all of the damage and related needs as well as listened and paid attention to my needs and concerns. I was able to drop the car off a few days later after contacting the related insurance agency. The work was done MUCH FASTER than I anticipated , it took about a week to get my car completed and back. These guys don't scrimp on anything and the entire job is a top quality repair, from front to back! The car looks better than before I dropped it off, I am still nothing but amazed at the quality of their work.

I brought my nearly new 2025 Toyota GR86 to Asian AutoTech of Ventura for a routine oil change. I…read moredid not report any suspension issues, unusual tire wear, noises, vibrations, or handling concerns. The car was driving perfectly fine, and I simply wanted basic maintenance performed. To my surprise, I left being told that my front struts were showing signs of leaking and that suspension repairs might be needed. Hearing that a nearly new vehicle may have suspension problems is concerning, especially when there were zero symptoms leading up to the visit. Wanting a second opinion, I took the car to a Toyota dealership for an inspection. After a full evaluation, the dealership found no leaking struts, no suspension defects, and no abnormalities requiring repair. That discrepancy raises an obvious question: how does a car go from allegedly needing suspension repairs at one shop to having a clean bill of health from a Toyota dealership? The GR86 is not your average commuter car, and its suspension setup is more specialized than what many general repair shops work with daily. In my case, the car is also not driven hard or abused. It's used normally, with no track use, no canyon driving habits, and no aggressive treatment that would reasonably point toward premature suspension wear. It's also worth noting that summer performance tires naturally wear faster than standard all-season tires, and can sometimes show uneven wear patterns due to the factory negative camber built into the suspension geometry. That alone is not necessarily an indicator of a mechanical issue. While I can't say exactly what led to the diagnosis, the experience left me questioning whether there was enough familiarity with this platform to accurately distinguish normal characteristics from actual mechanical issues. I understand that mistakes can happen in any shop. However, when a routine oil change turns into warnings of major repairs, especially on a nearly new vehicle that another inspection cannot confirm, it's hard to feel confident in the accuracy of those findings. Based on my experience, I would strongly recommend getting a second opinion before authorizing expensive repairs. What should have been a simple oil change instead created unnecessary stress, wasted time, and a loss of trust in the inspection process.
