    I've come to this auto shop for several years now & Bob the owner always take care of all my car services. His pricing are all fair and no questions asked. I come here to get my oil change for my Honda CR-V 2014 & Toyota Scion TC 2014 and he charges only $20 if you bring your own oil & filter. If you didn't bring your own supplies then don't worry about it they have it for you and it'll be about $40-60 depending on your car make, model & mileage.

    Its Hard to find an Honest Smog Shop and this is one of them . I got the Dreaded Smog Check required on my Work Whip White Rabbit . So I designated a day to go get it . Then I saw a Coupon for a Competitor for a Smog Check for $29,95 plus the Certificate . So I rolled there where they said that price wasn't for my Vehicle and they wanted $48 more to Smog my Vehicle . I looked at the Guy and Laughed in his face and told him nice try . See Ya wouldn't want to be you and left that crook in a cloud of Dust and rolled out . I went to my old stand by Smog Shop and talked to Bob . Bob was straight forward a quoted me a price of $58.20 this was the out the door price for the Smog Check, Evap -Check and Smog Certificate Bob explained the Smog Certification Procedure required for my Year Vehicle . I told Bob what happened at the other Smog shop and he actually knew about the other shop having integrity issues. San Leandro is a Small Town word gets around. Bob had me in and out in 25 Minutes . Service with a smile . I highly Recommend Bob for your Smog Needs.

    10/04. Current situation right now.

    They checked my car's condition and showed me how to use the cable chain on the tire before my winter trip through the snow weather.

    I had one of the best customer service experiences I've had in a long time at Doral Auto Repair…read more Before even coming in, John was incredibly helpful over the phone. After I told him my make and model, he suggested I pick up a replacement headlight bulb just in case and told me to come in anytime--no appointment needed. When I arrived, he immediately came out, had me open the hood, and took a look on the spot. Within less than 3 minutes, he had the new bulb installed and working perfectly. What really stood out was what happened next--I asked how much I owed him, and he told me there was no charge. That level of honesty and kindness is rare these days. John didn't try to upsell me, didn't waste my time, and didn't treat a small job like it wasn't worth his attention. He handled it with professionalism, efficiency, and genuine care. Because of that, Doral Auto Repair has earned my trust. The next time I need any work done on my car, this is exactly where I'm going. Highly recommend.

    I saw the online reviews of this place and when I got a coupon in the mail I thought I got…read moreseriously lucky! Got a 10 am appointment and dropped off my car to get an oil change. I was told it would take 2 hours and so I left. I came back after 2 hours and a half and I saw my car parked. Walked inside and I was told "they are still working on it" , weird, I saw it parked not being worked at all. I said I will wait for it and just then I get told the guys are going on break cause they have been working for 5 hours or something. I waited 2 of those hours for my car so I guess I get to wait a few more. I know their time is important but as my only day off I didn't want to spend half my day there so I took my car and left. No apology, no sorry you could not wait, zero. If you do not want to give discounts , easy, don't send coupons. If you had said 3 hours, I would have plan accordingly. I guess I sould look somewhere else. It just felt like they didn't care.

No. Technician Samuel, replaced the filter and in the process broke my coolant hose. They then told me that Kevin(owner) would need to come and replace the hose. They had me wait and hour and a half for Kevin to arrive. As I was waiting, tech(Omar) told me this is common and happens all the time. This has never happened on my car so that did not make the situation better. I had to ask Omar multiple times when will the owner plan on getting here with no updates. Upon Kevin arriving, I ask him, "if this is so common, why don't you all have hoses on hand?." He immediately gives me attitude and tells me that "you people always harass." I say "you people?" with a look of confusion and he immediately asks as if I am bothering him because I ask him why does a customer have to wait an hour and a half for an issue they cause. In the end. He placed the hose but my coolant light is now on. Not only am I filing a claim with the Better Business Bureau but i suggest that you DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. WORSE SERVICE EVER.
