One of the reasons I continue to go back to Spencer's Automotive is because they have always been…read morehonest with me and integrity is important. They could have easily sold me on replacing my timing chain, gears and all the parts that it takes to rebuild that area but instead I was advised that it would be best to have the transmission checked out first before spending $2500 to $3000 with them. The car is only worth about $5000 so it wouldn't be worth spending all that money on it to then have the transmission break down on me and I would have to spend another 4-5K. Thank you for honesty!

Also he doesn't do the DMV stuff anymore because no one was taking advantage of it and it's too expensive at the moment/price of goods going up. So my man Sean can't justify offering it anymore. Sean's a certified badass. Went here this morning to get a smog for my car and it was about a 15 minute drive or so. I was the first and only there. Rolled into a vacant parking spot when Sean came over and asked if I here for a smog. I said "Yeah" and he asked me to park in the awning and he'd get me hooked up. I also came prepared with some Micky D's breakfast cuz ya boy was hungry. So anyway, fast forward 10 minutes and while I'm munching on my McMuffins, Sean and I are talking casually about stuff. Kitchen Nightmares is on and Gordon Ramsay is going in on some crappy chef. Sean's like "I'm pretty sure your McDonald's breakfast sandwiches taste A-1 compared to that restaurant's crap right now." In between our conversation he politely asked me to sign off and review what he was charging me for, didn't try to upsell me, sell me anything useless, or any additional fluff. He also didn't rush me out of there either. So I able to take my time and enjoy the deliciousness I had brought with me. All in all I spent about 15-20 minutes tops. The process was fast and easy. 15/10 would chat and chill with Sean again. Oh yeah and my car was fine. And I paid about $45 for the whole thing (smog check). "It seems like quality has taken a dive man, all these shops are trying to screw you out of your money. You come in for brakes, they try and sell you a tune up with it. On the shop's mission statements it should say in fine print under their BS commitment to customer service, 'We're also here to gouge and bone you out of every penny you own.' - Sean, Certified Boss, Norcal Auto Support this man, he's awesome.

So from my times here, I can say that the staff members have all been very attentive & easy to talk to, (ask questions) & knowledgeable. They all seem to work seamlessly together & be on the same page, which definitely seems to speed up any possible wait times. I am always pleased with how smooth and quick the process is and I'm back on my way again. Also, knowing that I won't be pressured into all the dreaded unknown upselling (I have always seemed to run into with a few other companies) puts my anxiety in check! I feel more comfortable & confident knowing they will be transparent & straight up in their findings & I won't be price gouged or told some bs, that will leave me feeling uneasy & unsure on my drive home. I would definitely recommend trying them out... whenever the "looking for a good mechanic" topic comes up, I drop my D&E chime in... okay, this is why I don't leave reviews (because being an over thinker is exhausting) it's a lot to read, but I usually won't take the time to do reviews... so if I do, it's been a standout good experience or the complete opposite. I am impressed with D&E & I hope it helps someone else out, if you find yourself one day, frantically flying through all the different auto repair companies on here, you just found one... call or drive over to check. Oh & I also really like & appreciate the technology they use... they send you text message updates and pictures with explanations of what all needs to be fixed as well as the rundown of the entire time spent looking over your vehicle and findings or not- it's PRETTY GREAT!
