Noticed my car was pulling to the right a little. Stopped in on my way to RP to have it checked…read more Service rep stated it was probably a slow leak due to nail, "we see it all the time". Stated they could check it and if able to repair they could do it while I wait. Unfortunately, at that time I had somewhere I needed to be so he put more air in the tire and overfilled it Just a tad to get me over the next couple days and told me to keep an eye on the pressure. I did what he said and came back in two days and sure enough, there was a nail in the tire and they were able to repair it with a plug. I was on my way in about 20 minutes and it cost about $27 which I thought was fair and worth it, until it's time for me to buy new tires. 3 weeks later (at the time of this review) tire pressure is still holding at the correct pressure. Everyone was super friendly, even though they were super busy. I love local, family businesses and will use them every time.

Oh absolutely I would recommend Kalemba's. Called and confirmed they could provide service, so…read moredrove over and they took my car within 5 minutes. Nail in my tire was patched up in less than 30. Nice comfy waiting room where I plugged my laptop in and worked. They also have a nice seating area outside too. Didn't really get to do much work, but didn't mind the speedy service at all. Thanks Todd and staff for being so solid. Great value and professionalism! I'll be a customer for life here.

He worked with me to figure out what was most pressing in terms of keeping my old car safe enough to drive, and allowing me to schedule out repairs when it was within my budget to do so. Affordable and honest. In a mechanic, this is gold.

I unfortunately did not share in the same amazing experience as everyone else. I brought in a new…read moreto me 1993 LS400 that was leaking oil from the valve covers, barely failed the 25mph portion of the smog test for hydrocarbons, and I asked about a timing belt job as well as possible spark plugs and wires. I left the car and agreed to the diagnostic fee. No issues there. Darlene called me back and confirmed that the valve covers were indeed leaking, and provided a quote of around $1,000. I asked if it needed a timing belt job or if the tech thought it could also be camshaft/crankshaft seals. She put me on hold and then said "Oh yeah, it needs a timing belt job too." Not sure why she wasn't prepared with that information, but it seemed odd. The quote for that was above $2,500. I then asked about the smog and Darlene told me I had lazy catalytic converters and that they needed to be replaced at almost $3k. All in all, the quote was going to be $6,500+. I don't know if this diagnostic was malicious or simply negligent, but either way it was unacceptable. I picked up the car the next day and took it to another shop. The other shop told me I didn't need new cats, then did the valve cover gaskets, timing belt job, spark plugs & wires for about $1,000 cheaper. They also replaced the PCV valve I provided ($20 part) for free and the car passed smog with flying colors. Sure the cats may have fixed it, but you shouldn't go with the nuclear option first, at the expense of the customer.

The price was very fair and they did not try to push me to get things done that I did not need…read more Very honest and very nice company to work with. I will be back and I highly recommend them to anyone who has a Subaru or Honda!

I have been taking our two cars to Bowen's for many years now. We have been happy with their work…read more They always advise us when finding a problem but never pressure us on getting the additional work completed. My old vehicle had an oil leak on a gasket. It leaked even after the repair. Travis took the car back 3 times at no charge to fix the stubborn issue. We will continue to come here for all our auto repair needs. I find the prices are much better on most repairs than the dealership. Hopefully you will do tire repairs in the future! Thanks again. John

It is clear how immature and unprofessional Travis is by his response to my honest Yelp review. In it he publicly calls me names that that I'm too polite to call him, while accusing me of trying to destroy his business.. Pretty low class in my opinion. He'll probably do it again. - Still angry in Marin.

I trusted them on their diagnosis. So, flash forward to 2025.... today, I was driving down #StoneyPoint Road, and this dude in a White Nissan Van pulls to the right, into the bike lane.... and then makes an amazing left U-Turn in front of me. OMFG! I have never - NEVER ever hit the breaks and horn So hard!! And when he looked out his window at me, he never as much as acknowledged me. Screeching, tire smoke and noise later, he kept going. I am SO grateful that the team at TriStar Automotive helped me with the breaks on our car. Because I seriously see our car getting totaled because of this d-head.
