    Price with alleged coupon applied!

    I've now been to both the Elk Grove location and the Citrus Heights one, both places use questionable pricing tactics and don't document a decent and or accurate breakdown of prices and work done. Website also does not include any pricing, just coupons that may or may not get applied to your bill!

    Brake master "free alignment" Check.

    Disappointed. I originally came here for regular oil change and the Clerck offered me "free alignment check". I had an alignment done in November/2023 and so far I only drove 1800 miles with my new tires, but I decided to accept the offer and check the alignment. So after they finished checking the alignment they present me with the chart (see photo) showing that I need alignment done. Each photo will show BEFORE ALIGNMENT and CURRENT ALIGNMENT. What that means is: A Before measurement is pre-adjustment reading, that show the vehicle's wheel alignment before any corrections have been made. A Current Measurement is the post-adjustment reading, will show the vehicle's wheel alignment AFTER any corrections have been made. IF you see the picture: my before measurement from Brake master is the same as my Current measurement from American Tire where I had an alignment done back in November 23 If NO ADJUSTMENT was made at Break Master, then my BEFORE and CURRENT chart graphic from Brake master should show the same result. I called Brake Master (Citrus Heights) to complaint with the manager and he said I was reading the chart wrong. So I decided to call American Tires, Les schwab and Brake Master (Roseville) and they all confirmed that If I had NO adjustment nothing should have changed on Before and Current , chart. But they Lie to me changing my current results trying to get me to pay for alignment that i did not need. Now, instead of having a customer for more years, they lost one just for a free alignment !

    Stay away for large or odd jobs.. However I'm sure they're good for maintenance. I have a 2012 Ford Focus that needs a clutch(which I already knew), dropped it off to them and was called a few days later saying the transmission module needs to be flash updated through Ford before they can touch it and it may or may not fix my problem. Took it to Ford and they said the module doesn't need to be flashed and that it just needs a clutch LOL...well thanks Brake Master for costing me $150 Ford inspection and towing it there and to a new shop as I'm not paying dealership repair prices. Now for the second car I took, a 2004 Dodge Neon. They said they're 99% sure it's the valves, but they don't have the tools for a "leak down test". Took it to another shop and they said it's the catalytic converter. If it does turn out to be the valves I'll come and add a star or two. The third vehicle a 2015 Kia Sedona they did get it right. Steve was very friendly and overall I received good customer service. Like I said I think they would be a good place to do basic maintenance like oil changes, brakes, suspension just not large jobs.

    I only started using 916 Auto Repair recently, but Samson and his team have already helped me with…read moreseveral vehicles and I've had a really good experience every time. If you need an honest, knowledgeable, and fairly priced auto repair shop near Gold River or Rancho Cordova, I'd definitely recommend them. They've worked on my 2017 Ford Transit Connect, 2014 Mercedes GL63, and 2014 BMW X5. They replaced a driver-side CV axle, did oil changes, replaced brake pads and rotors, diagnosed and fixed an A/C and heater blower issue, repaired a trunk/liftgate problem, and also replaced a valve cover and gasket and battery. What stood out to me most was how knowledgeable, honest, and fair Samson and his team were throughout the process. The staff are friendly, the front desk is welcoming, and the customer service has been great. It's hard to find a shop that does quality work at reasonable prices, but 916 Auto Repair has done that for me. Definitely recommended.

    I contacted 916 Auto after doing a 2 and half week research (which included Yelp and Google…read moreReviews) to have my 2004 Mazda 3 AC Condenser (Factory OEM) replaced. My AC Drier was cracked and inoperable since last year. In this region of the Sacramento Valley and Placer County, 916 Auto quote beat 5 shops I contacted in the region and 1 shop even told me it's not worth it and I should get a new car. Bet if my car was a 69 Camaro, they'd do it. Why? Cause its a Classic Camaro. No matter the condition. Some shops don't want to work on Imports. But oh well. Their loss, not mine. I contacted 916 Auto and spoke to Samson to schedule an appointment and he said to come by that very same day. And so I drove from Roseville to Gold River that morning. Samson is honest & to the point. When he pulled my car in, he noticed a coolant leak. Now I didn't notice any leaks in my driveway, as it would seem the Coolant is evaporating or dissipating, but he notice it was getting on my Alternator, by the stains. It turns out, my OEM water pump (factory part since 2003 for this model year in 2004) finally gave out at 262K miles. Who'd ever think a Mazda/Ford part would last this long. This was an unexpected thought as I only had budgeted for the quote. So I called my CFO (Wife) and let her know of the issue. She said get it fixed and she'll adjust other expenses as she knows I need AC for the upcoming summer temps. So I authorized Samson to proceed with the entire job. Now I can't couldn't do any price comparison, but he did give me a discount which still fit in my overall budget. I spent my whole day in their lobby. They have updated their lobby to make it feel more comfortable and less Auto Shop feel. I notice the many people who drop by to have their car service are all happy and are returning customers. From a Dealership oil drain plug that was torqued too tight, to oil changes, brakes, and even a customer who was a bit upset where the Dealership sent the wrong part twice. The Dealership. I spoke to many of them and they all had the same answer when I ask. "What made you come here?" They replied, "Their price can't be beat!". In summary, my AC is now working as it should. Now I only used my AC for 2 whole days It gets cold and it has been awhile since I have felt cold in my aging car of 22 years. With my new water pump installed as well, my car is running smoother overall. Smoother shifts, heater gets warm fast. Almost, now almost like it was in 2004. So, Did I find a new shop for my Project Commuter Car? Yes I sure did. They have gotten a new customer. Up next is my Transmission Gasket & plug. One thing at a time! Have fun out there & do your research!

    Let me start off by saying that after moving to Folsom, CA, needing to find a place to get my oil…read morechanged was a little challenging. You read reviews, and you never really know whether you're making a good or bad decision by going to a place that has some negative reviews. I'm here to tell you that I had a VERY good experience today at this Jiffy Lube. As I sat waiting for my car to drive into the bay, different employees came over at various times to let me know what the wait time was looking like. The shop manager also came over and told me that the wait time was about 14 to 15 minutes per car. Since there were three cars in front of us, I figured it would be around 40 to 45 minutes, just as the shop manager had estimated. Brynna (I think that's how it's spelled) came over when it was our turn and guided us into the bay. Once we got in, we communicated about what needed to be replaced and what they were offering as recommended items that should be monitored for our vehicle. Let me tell you, from beginning to end, my experience at this place was absolutely wonderful. After letting Brynna know about my Battery that needs to be replaced by Interstate Batteries since its under warranty she offered to have me come to the shop and have it looked at and so this way they could get a reading for me that I could take to Interstate. I Thanked her for her offering but advised that the wife works really early and that it would be difficult for us to come that early in the morning. I had my oil changed, my oil filter changed, my Antifreeze was topped up and my Windshield Washer fluid was topped up as well. I was able to find a $33 coupon online and so the value for the oil change was very worth it. So thankful that I have a great place I can rely on the next time I need my Oil Changed. Thanks Jiffy Lube for being there for someone who was WAY past due on his Oil Change.

However, I brought my car in Wednesday to have them check the A/C (only due to Speedee not having an A/C mechanic). It was not always blowing cold when I switched the re-circulate button. They fixed it and added freon, but forgot to inform me that the coolant resevoir holder may be leaking/seeping, as it has coolant stuck to the outside (owner of Speedee pointed this out to me weeks ago). I could've gotten that fixed! Even though they quoted me over $650! So, I get my car (they had locked it up indoors even though it wasn't 5:30 yet) and it is filthy w/grease stains on my front sets and driver door! They obviously didn't use seat covers, paper for the floor boards or even shoe covers or gloves. Dang! Even Speedee uses seat covers and floor mat covers. I'll be looking for a new mechanic spot now. A family owned business that takes better care of their clients cars. I've NEVER received my vehicle back lke that before. Unacceptable!!!
