Very smooth process. They took care of my car alignment right away when I arrived. No BS and everything meeting my expectation. Their price is very reasonable compared to the other quotes that I received. I definitely will go back again read more

Fantastic service, friendly owner, great value -- my go-to auto shop! I had a new quarter window installed on the front driver's side of my car at Auto Care Experts and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience. From the moment I walked in, Serge (the owner) greeted me with top-notch customer service -- friendly, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure everything went smoothly. My car was in and out of the shop quickly, and the workmanship on the window was excellent. What stood out most was how affordable their pricing was compared to other shops in the area, without sacrificing quality. Auto Care Experts truly offers a full range of automotive services, from mechanical repairs and maintenance to smog checks, brake service, diagnostics, suspension work, and even body shop and collision repair -- all handled by trained professionals. Serge treats everyone with respect and care -- it feels like you're dealing with a trusted local business rather than just another shop. I'm definitely a long-term customer now and highly recommend them to anyone who needs reliable, honest, and affordable auto service. Will be bringing all my future auto needs here -- 5 stars all around! read more

Brought my car to them today for a smog check and vehicle safety inspection and was very pleased with the service that was provided!! Thankfully my vehicle passed both the smog s as well as the safety check. But I'm pretty sure they would have had a plan and the ability to do the repaired if it was necessary! Thank you so much for the excellent service! Well definitely go back to them if I can fix it myself! read more

Auto Care Experts - This is the car they worked on - Body Shops Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

This repair shop didn't disappoint me. Their attitude is very good. The repair skills are very good. It will also save your time. For example, if you can't get the parts you need right away, they will make sure when to get it and make an appointment with you. They won't keep you waiting at all. Do you like to try read more

These guys are honest reliable and put in the extra work to diagnose the problem. They ruled out things like the fuel pump, the transmission, and other potential things that were causing my rough idle at stop lights. They ended up pinpointing that it was the EGR valve. Great work guys! I totally recommend autocare experts. Thank you to Alex and his team there for doing such excellent work. read more

I have been a customer of this business since 2021 for body work. They are very reliable and do beautiful work. Call and ask for Alex.

I just got a used vehicle and had it thoroughly inspected by Auto Care Experts. From the brakes to the engine fluids. I'm impressed with their attention to detail to ensure my investment stays an investment and not a mistake. This business is worth checking out if you have any vehicle concerns before or after vehicle purchase. read more

These guys are great. I had to turn my car in after a lease and they were so helpful. They got me in and out within 90 minutes with repairs to my bumper and sensors fixed with minimal cost I feel they were honest about the whole situation. Alex was kind, informed me about everything, and understood what I was trying to get help with. I highly recommend. read more

My car looks amazing after the work they did and they even detailed it! Such an unexpected surprise Thank you Serge, Wayne and team!! read more

See all

Got a smog check here for a great price! Alex provided me with quick service & was very nice :) I appreciate the service, thank you!

No one better! Great price, great service, and great work! 100% recommend!!!! Alex always gives us the best experience.

WOW! In and out! I could not believe how quickly we had this smog test taken care of. Very nice staff, nice reception area as well. We arrived a little bit before out appointment, but were still taken in, 15 min later, the car was done! Look for a black and white checkerboard painting on the white building. That was the hardest part of the day....finding the darn place! read more

I went in for the axel and ended up with so many repairs in the end. After $2400. YES! That's right...I come to find out two years later I have to have my axel replaced AGAIN! This should not have to be done again ever! Anyways, save your time and hard earned money and AVOID them like the 2020 pandemic! Completely ridiculous! I was charged more then the dealership would have charged. They charge same amount of labor cost as dealership and use after market parts AND act like your getting a discount when in fact that was FALSE. LONG STORY SHORT, AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!!!! read more

I made an appointment for my smog check for 30 minutes after I phoned them. They saw me immediately, were friendly, and the price was excellent. I was in and out in 15 minutes for under $40. Best smog-check experience I've ever had. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Serge is a great owner and the team is wonderful. Have been bringing my cars here for years and the service has been on point and impeccable. What a great local auto repair shop. GO HERE. read more

I came back to Auto Care Experts this week to get an oil change and my brakes checked to make sure everything on my car was good to go for an upcoming road trip. I can always trust them to keep me safe on the road, especially when I'm going out of state. Fred and his team do the most detailed and flawless job and if that's not enough they have the best customer service. Not only is the shop always clean, I am always greeted with a smile and treated respectfully. Since I am not a car aficionado Fred makes sure I understand exactly whats going on and what needs to be done in a way that is easy to understand. 100% recommend! read more

I had my smog checked here today and I couldn't be happier for choosing this place. I think it took them about 10 mins to complete it and also very affordable. read more

The staff was professional and the work was economical! Easy in and easy out! I would go back in a heartbeat!Period!

Was recommended here by a friend and now this is my go to shop. Serge and Wayne are great. Here are some things I like about the shop -super clean. Not like a lot of other shops where the dirt and grease gets tracked into the office. -technology driven. Super easy to make a reservation online. See what is available and set the time and date for your appointment. -fast. I don't think I have ever had to wait more than a day to get my car back. That being said I haven't had anything major like an engine replacement -responsive. They actually call you back to let you know progress and when to pick up your call. With other mechanics I had to call them to see how it was going. Here the guys call you back. read more

I got my car's smog check this week at Auto Care Experts and it was the nicest, easiest smog check I have ever had. I made an appointment ahead of time and had a friendly greeting when I got there. My car was taken back immediately and within 15 minutes I was done and out the door. I would highly recommend Auto Care Experts and will return . Fair price, great service, clean and comfortable place to wait. I could not have asked for more! read more

Got smog, brake and lamp certificates done here. The prices were better than other shops in the area and I got an appointment for the same day. The service was professional and there was no wait. I recommend this place. Thanks to Chen and "Lee" for the help. read more

I don't normally post but this gets out more that word of mouth.This place took me in earlier and was finished with inspection of my brakes and lights for my salvaged vehicle for the dmv.There was a bulb that was loose instead of straight away charging me for a new one they fixed it.Not many would.The guys definitely earned my trust.Thanks guys. read more

As a dedicated customer, I'm once again impressed by their exceptional work. The latest example was the front brake replacement. Their skillful service not only meets my high standards but also consistently aligns with my budget. Grateful for a trustworthy team (Serge, Alexey, Lee) that keeps me coming back--I'm a loyal customer for a reason! read more

Great service and fair price! Very responsive and great customer service. We will be back. Thank you so much!

New owner has offered to fix the truck. Going to bring it back. A got a bad feeling when I first went to Auto cate experts ( Fred's shop ) and should have went with my gut about taking his word on a vehicle I bought from him. He insured me that everything was good and that he was driving the vehicle regularly, so I purchased it on his word. Well that was a big mistake. By the time I got the vehicle home the engine was making noise and turns out it has internal issues. I call Fred to try to talk to him about iand he told me too bad he sold it as is. Like I said I should have went with my gut. I saw what kind of place he ran by trying to up sell people things their cars didn't need or talking them out of aftermarket parts. read more

I got into a car accident, so my front door couldn't be fully opened and bumper had a hole and dents. Actually, that was my first car accident (and I hope the last one), because of that I was so nervous about fixing process. I found these guys on Facebook group and was totally impressed. They got me super quickly, explained all details and went through all processes with me. Today I picked up my car and it looks like a brand new! They even washed it. Sergey, the owner, is doing a great job! His team is amazing - super professional and helpful. They also kept me updated about a progress. Thank you so much, Sergey and team!! read more

I needed a brake light inspection! I googled it and found this company. Since I don't live in the surround area; I was not familiar with this company. From my first phone call to the home made cookies they shared; I'm so happy I found them. My favorite things: the receptionist; knowledgeable; friendly; can handle it all! The chairs in the waiting area are amazing. I want one. Magazine choices are over the top great. Don't miss the bathroom; it's so clean you won't believe it. The owner; very helpful and patient with all my questions. If you need help with your car; it will be well cared for here and so will you. read more

Auto Care Experts - This is it ! - Body Shops Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

My husband And I have been taking our cars to auto care experts for two years now.... Hands-down the greatest experience and I don't care I've ever had. Not only do you walk into a smile on the face but you can tell the owner still has joy in what he does after 20+ years and service. The front office is clean, inviting and comfortable. Even without an appointment I'm in and out of there in no time for small things Like getting a smog check. Having been a communications specialist and customer service, service job roles over the years I've become very picky with the service industry... And I can say again that I am blown away by the quality of service here at auto care experts. If you're looking for a place with ethical ownership and practice, reasonable prices, care for their customers and all with a smile.... This is it! read more

Why would I be upset that my car failed because I needed to drive it more to clear the codes? The owners response is simply a plea to cover up his bad and crooked business tactics. Who's going to get upset over $25-$30? Really? It's the bad attitude, the bad bedside manner, the arrogance, and the mannerisms of the owner that begin to give him bad reviews. Then it's escalated to even worse by his shady tactics. I just had someone today tell me that he had a friend take his car for repair there and was told it wouldn't be more than $3k. The owner finished allegedly finished the job and then presented the customer with a $10,000 bill. I have no way to substantiate any of that but if things are good you don't typically have these stories coming at your door. I stand firmly on my original recommendation, stay away from them. Perhaps he can learn something about congeniality and business etiquette from the guy he has staffed at the front desk. He's a great example of how the owner should behave. read more

This company is so professional, organized and friendly, from the front desk to the owner. Wayne, whom I spoke with over the phone is so accommodating and friendly. Serge the manager and I think the owner is the best. They are already closed when I came yet he accommodated me and do all the paperwork personally. My car after having been checked by 3 smog center finally passed. They did the drive cycle themselves and voila my certificate was issued on the following day and the time it was promised. Highly recommended! read more

Came here to get my smog check and it was easy and painless. I was in and out within 20 minutes. Plus the prices were awesome! When I called they informed me that they had a $30 dollar off special for smogs. so for my corolla, it was only $38 bucks! Most places that I called were $50 and up, even with their "coupons". The front staff was very friendly and knowledgable!! Plus the facility was clean and comfortable! Will come back because they also offer standard routine services. Thanks guys!!! read more

Auto Care Experts - .... - Body Shops Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

If I could give 10 stars I would. I had a truly positive experience at Auto Care Experts! This was my first time getting a smog check on my Lexus and I was concerned it was going to be a tedious process and that I was going to be overcharged. No way! I requested a quote from Auto Care and within 5 minutes received an extremely affordable quote and the cheapest in my city. I made an appointment for 1:00 on Saturday and they had my car ready by 1:15!! In and out in only 15 minutes! They sent my certificate to DMV and honored the price I was quoted online. I highly recommend this auto body shop. Thank you for the excellent customer service and speedy work. I'll be back for my oil change soon! read more

After doing my fair share of looking around and asking for quotes on my car I stumbled across this place and it was honestly the thing that made my week. I got into a small accident and I really wanted to avoid going through my insurance because the damage was bad enough for a $500 deductible. However there still was noticeable damage at least for me because I'm a perfectionist and stuff like that bothers me. I called to see how to go about getting a quote and I spoke with Wayne. He was so helpful and very thorough. He told me to come in because it's the best way to asses the damage fully. And I did. He laid out everything they would do to fix it and how much EACH thing would cost. There was no underlying costs and everything was very straight forward. Not too mention Wayne set me up with a free loaner car because I was going to be out of a car for three days. This was a please try surprise because I thought it was going to be one of those situations where I have to just try and get rides and what not. They estimated it would take three days but they finished a day early!! And I got to take my car home looking brand new again. I really appreciate the work you guys did and I will definitely be coming back for all my car needs. Thanks Wayne and to the guys in the garage! read more

They picked up and delivered my car which was way overdue for maintenance. Did the 120k maintenance in a timely fashion, fixed other problems in 1+ days for a reasonable price. Great communication, great service. read more

I came here for a smog check and called if lunchtime was available. They said okay and I did a quick smog check. Less than 30 minutes and it was done. Quick and fast. I came here because I had a coupon with them and even if I didn't show them the coupon, they just applied their coupon price. Price was great compared to other places. read more
