I have a 1990 Toyota truck that I use every day for work. On this truck, the speedometer sends a signal to the computer, which tells the transmission when to shift. When the circuit in the speedometer failed, the transmission started shifting very erratically, and the truck became undriveable. I couldn't find anyone who was willing to work on a 35-year-old speedometer. Out of desperation, I gave the details to ChatGPT and asked for a recommendation. It pointed me to iKarz Speedometers & Automotive in Bakersfield, CA. I called and spoke with Chris, who told me they had all the necessary equipment to troubleshoot the unit down to the component level, repair it, and then test it to ensure everything met factory specifications. I also asked him about replacing the burned out Hi-Beam and Over-Drive and indicator lamps while they had it, and he suggested that he could replace all the original dash illumination lamps and indicator lamps with new, brighter, longer-lasting German-made bulbs. I overnighted the instrument cluster to him via UPS. He came in when they were closed on the Friday after Thanksgiving to receive it. They started work on it first thing Monday morning, and had it repaired, tested and shipped via UPS Next Day Air on Wednesday. My truck is all back together now and it is shifting flawlessly. It is such a pleasure to drive again! In an era where real customer service is hard to find, Chris and iKarz Speedometers & Automotive, delivered in every way. I am totally satisfied with their work and highly recommend them without hesitation.

They very quickly replaced the filter, filled the car with oil, tested to make sure there was no leak, and then sent us on our way. Plus the fix was inexpensive! It was cheaper than the bad oil change we got! We definitely recommend them.

This place is overpriced on a lot of items and they charge 3x as much for.I paid $11 for the item I came in here to get which is $7.99 at Autozone,but i was right next door at the carwash so I guess i paid for convenience. A $1.25 hot wheels car goes for $3.49 and $10 for a 5 pack I usually get for about $7.99. I had to tell my grandson no to getting an Indy hot wheels that was $11.00 for an $7 car. So they will definitely stay right there until they drop their prices. . Not a bad visit but it is expensive in here if you're in a rush get it here but if you can wait do some price comparison before you purchase anything here. Customer service here was horrible today because the 3 men working here looked at me as if i wanted to stand and wait as they gossiped behind the counter possibly ignoring my existence. JoJo came from the back of the store to help 2 female customers and myself out all while the other 3 looked like Caltrans workers watching JoJo do the shoveling as they leaned on their shovels gossiping about something. I was about to ask for a price match to see if they did it but I was already frustrated by time I made it to the register. Overall an ok visit but Ill definitely wait for JoJo to star checking people out before I head to the counter next time.

After asking a few people for recommendations, I decided on Sam Moore's. A few days after I dropped the car off, I was called with a diagnosis and a quote.

It's very refreshing to find an honest, experienced mechanic and I'll be sure to recommend Sam Moore to anybody looking for a mechanic.
