It's hard to find an honest mechanic these days, which is why I wanted to leave a review. From the…read moremoment I brought my vehicle in, I felt like I was being given honest advice rather than being pressured into unnecessary repairs. Instead of immediately trying to sell me a service, they actually recommended that I contact my dealership first to check for any recalls that might apply to my issue. That level of integrity and customer care is rare. They've been helpful, professional, and transparent throughout the process, and I truly appreciate their willingness to put the customer's best interests first. I'll absolutely be returning for any future work my vehicles need and would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

Update: My review…read morereflects my family's experience and is based on events we personally observed. After seeing your response, I revised my review to ensure it accurately and fairly describes our experience. I stand by the review and have no interest in engaging in a public dispute. I wish you and your business the best. OP Based on my family's experience, I would strongly encourage potential customers to read both the positive and negative reviews before making a decision. A relative of mine spent several thousand dollars on repairs here, but the vehicle's issues were not resolved, and she ultimately replaced the vehicle. We were extremely disappointed with the outcome. In our interactions, we felt the owner was dismissive, condescending, and disrespectful. During one conversation, he placed his hands on the arms of two female family members in a way they found inappropriate and unwelcome. We also felt that our concerns were not taken seriously and that comments were made that came across as dismissive because they were women. Based on our experience, we would not return or recommend this business.

Mario's Auto Diagnostics

Today was my lucky day and the first thing I did when Mario was done was rush to write this review…read more I have an older vehicle that was running horribly. I had been told that I needed a tune up but the quotes were a lot so I was putting it off. Well it took a turn for the worse and was getting close to undriveable. I made an appointment with a reputable auto repair shop in the area to get it taken care of. They looked it over and called me and said they were declining to work on it because it had over 10 codes on the OBP scan, they had to jump start it from the parking lot (news to me) and could barely drive it into the bay. They recommended taking it to the dealership (out of the question) or start looking for a replacement vehicle. I left dejected, thinking it was a goner. I called around looking for someone who would be willing to work on it and right away. One call was to Mario, who had a mobile service. I wasn't sure about the mobile thing as opposed to a brick and mortar garage but was willing to roll the dice because he had an opening the following morning. He was running behind due and I considered going to a local shop because I thought he might not be able to get to me and I needed it done that day and couldn't put it off. However, I just had a good feeling about him, and because of our phone conversation he really demonstrated a lot of knowledge about my vehicle. I decided to wait it out and have faith in him, and it really paid off. Not only is my truck purring like a kitten again but his cost came under what the shops were charging. In fact, I couldn't even get a firm quote from other people- they were leaving the door open that the price could go up depending on what they encountered and were also talking about $200ish diagnostic fees in addition to the repair cost before the work was done. I'm gonna be calling this guy, and I'm gonna keep his ass busy. I had a trusted mechanic for over 20 years who passed away, and so I was a free agent looking for another good guy. I think I'm officially off the market and I have three cars that need upkeep. 100% satisfaction today. He's definitely a master of his craft and was very fair and honest from soup to nuts. Now if you'll excuse me I have to get back on the gas.

That is, as other reviewers have mentioned, a very grave issue and speaks to their moral code (and their desperation to have a falsely inflated Yelp score). A successful shop that is loved by their customers would never need to stoop to this. There are many great, honest auto shops out there. This ain't one of them.

We took it to the dealership multiple times and spent thousands of dollars, yet they were never able to fix it. After doing some research on Advanced Auto, I suggested to my husband that we take the car there. Sure enough, they quickly found the issue and fixed it for us. More recently, I took my vehicle in to have the shocks replaced. I expected it to be very expensive, but I was pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the quote was. They are honest and trustworthy. They don't recommend repairs that aren't needed, which is something I've felt other mechanics have done in the past. With Advanced Auto, that has never been the case.

I was referred by a friend to this place. I called in the morning of January 17th, 2014, to see if Eddie have time to check out and work on my car, but at that time.. he had a lot of cars to work on. So I called back again later that same day in the afternoon, but he was still busy working on some cars and told me to call back in a few hours. A few hours later, I called back and told me to bring my car. When I got there, he took a look at it and did a quick evaluation. I had to wait about 10-15 minutes or so, but it was totally worth the wait. Excellent services and very friendly people. Eddie, he's a really nice guy and knows his stuff. He installed a new muffler for me and what can I say, I'm really happy with the outcome. I'm definitely coming back here again and will refer my friends to this place. Awesome job Eddie!

Took my F150 in, got a muffler delete. Loved it but wanted a deeper sound. The owner helped me find a solution. I got a resonator delete and a flow master put it. Sounds great and prices were way better than the competitors. Autocross performance and mufflers is right down the street but the prices are way more expensive, the customer service sucks, and the shop looks like it is out of a trailer. Highly recommend best muffler, they will be my auto shop for life. read more

Best bang for your buck. He always goes out of his way to ensure your happy and even has you come back if you feel something may be off. ( he's offered but we have never had any complaints). The best thing he's done for us is cutting the exhaust and putting several exhaust pipes and tips to allow us to hear the sound and then even gone back to several of them showing us 2 and 3 times on the same ones to really be sure before welding begins. I can't say enough positive things! We're very happy and will continue our business with JR! Get ready we have some more vehicles heading your way soon lol.
