These guys know their stuff. Been to a couple of local shops where I felt they really didn't have a idea what was wrong with my SUV. These guys did a comprehensive diagnostic & found the specific problem. Quality & fast work. Highly recommend. read more

Think I've already reviewed this place as FANTASTIC. We have been taking our cars here for a long time and always so happy with results. You will not find a more honest mechanic than Sham. He tells it like it is and NEVER makes you feel ripped off. You may have to wait for your car to be seen but that's because the word is out on how great this place is. read more

We have been bringing all of our cars to Chino Auto Tech for over 10 years. Don't know why we haven't written a review sooner! This place is the best, reliable and trustworthy. I swear my last car lasted 13 years because it was so well taken care of by Jim and his technicians. Whether domestic or import I would highly recommend you give this shop a try, you will be impressed with the work, recommendations of what to look at next time and what needs to be done now to avoid any problems. Jim and Jan keep the place really clean and are a pleasure to work with. If something goes wrong they are standup citizens who will make it right. read more

Went in for a Smog Check and received friendly and Warm Service!! It was fast and efficient my car past the Smog check with flying colors! A+++++ would come again. read more

I just stopped by because my car needs an oil change. The owner, Jim, gave me an appointment for tomorrow AND, came out to check my oil levels to make sure I'm good to go today. Seeing the oil was low, he went in and got a quart of oil and put it in for me! I felt so well taken care of! read more

Had my husband take my car in for a smog check. Called first to find out if they had a waiting room because I was going to take it in during my lunch break from work. Jim answered the phone and was extremely courteous telling me pricing and info. My husband then took the car and was floored by their customer service. He was extremely happy when telling me about his experience. In a nutshell, we found our new place to get our cars serviced. We live in Diamond Bar, but we'll make that extra few mile trip. We'll be back for sure. read more

I loved this place when Jim and Jan were running this place, now that this Joe guy is there I always pay more out in labor than parts. He has zero customer service skills! But he is more than happy to take your money for diagnostic test that did not even fix my car. Sorry Chino Autotech was a long term customer no more! read more

Great customer service! 30 min like they said with no problems. They said if you have a valid AAA card $5 off of smog. They are AAA certified! No lies :). I'm a happy customer. Smog cost me $53 read more

Called earlier. Smog Check went without a hitch. Nice guy. I'll most likely come back to get my Toyota oil change read more

First time here to smog my Honda. Customer service is excellent. The owner Jim offered coffee & served me a bottle of cold water. Very Clean shop! Highly recommend for smog check. They even repair here as well! read more

Chino Autotech - Appointment set at 7:30am. Passed & Completed by 8:00am. - Auto Repair Near Me - Chino, California

I'm that stereotypical woman who just doesn't understand how cars work at all. So I want to go to a place where someone can safely handle my car, give me a fair price, and not give me any bullshit in between. The only place I've found is Chino Auto Tech. My whole family goes here, because the mechanics don't try to upsell down your throat, they won't exaggerate the problems with your vehicle, and they give decent advice regarding care of makes and models of a certain car. And if they're working on my car, they get the job done thoroughly in a reasonable amount of time. I'll be patronizing this place for a while, because as of now, they're the only guys I trust. read more

Just came back from a smog check. Time was about 30 minutes to get it done on a busy day, 10 minutes above estimate. However the lady was very courteous and made a very positive impression. I may come back for other services. read more

Great service and knowledgeable staff! We have our smog check done here every time we need it! Totally going back!

We recently purchased a used Prius, took it to AAA to get it registered. They said it must be smog certified, and gave us business card of Chino autotech. We got there late in the afternoon, they were really busy; but somehow worked us in. This was our first time there. And in no time, Jim and Jan had us calm and relaxed, as we'd had a very hectic day. Their price was competitive and the experience amazing. I will be bringing my Tacoma from San Diego to Chino autotech. And of course the Prius has a new home for it's service "Why go anywhere else." read more

I was a last second "omg I need to get my car smog checked so I can get it registered" kind of customer, and I gave this place 4 stars because the initial greeting wasn't very welcoming. I get that if I call ahead my wait time would be shorter (never even complained about the wait), but not everyone's schedule is ideal enough to call ahead. So the greeting that I got was "if you had called ahead I would know right now if we can service your car, but now you have to wait and ask Joe what he can do for you". Ok ... A little off putting but I've had worse customer service. My day was more like "My dentist appointment ended early?! I have some time let's do this!" So being squeezed in for service was great. Ok let's talk about Joe ... He was absolutely wonderful! He over guesstimated the wait time, but delivered wonderful service in less than 20 minutes. Because of him I will more than likely be back. He had a friendly reminder at check out that appointments get quicker service (but understood that life happens). Ok ok ... I'll call next time read more

I found Autotech a few years ago through AAA, and I am so very happy i did! Jim and Jan are always so kind and helpful and fun! Their mechanics are the best! I feel so very confident that I am going to get the best service possible when I take my car in! My only regret is that I didn't find them sooner! read more

This is my second visit here. First visit, I needed a smog check for my Mini. It took 30 mins. Second visit was today. I needed a smog check for my Pilot. It took 2 hours because it needed repair. They showed me the intake boot was ripped. It needed to be replaced. It passed after the repair. If you have AAA, you get $5 discount on smog check. read more

Took my car there for a free 40 point inspection offered to AAA members. I talked to Jim who was reluctant to do it, so I told him it was overheating due to a possible blown head gasket, at which point he said it would be a $50 diagnostic fee. I agreed & left the car. 2 days later, I listened to several voice mails from a # I didn't recognize & it wasn't the shops # which I was expecting. When I called the shop, I wasn't given a specific reason for the overheating & told that if I didn't pick the car up that day, I would be charged $35/ day for storage. Such a waste of time & money. Thanks for nothing Jim... read more

I took my car to Chino Auto Tech last week for the 100,000 mile service. Instead of doing the service they charged me $25 dollars and told me that some of the services may be covered by the dealership. They gave me a report approximately 50 page. When I showed the report to the dealer they were impressed at the report and said "These people know what they are doing". Part of the 100k service is changing belts and spark plugs. The dealership covered about $1,200.00 worth of work for free. Chino Auto Tech could of provided the requested service and I would of never know. They are very ethical and honest. I feel so grateful to find an honest mechanic. They are located on Corner of Chino Ave and Yorba Ave. 4702 Chino Ave Chino there number is 909-627-0919 read more

Best service from a car repair place I have ever had. They explained everything to the T. He gave me two different choices of parts and told me to go with the less expensive one because it was superior. His honestly was great and i felt so much better about having my car worked on. Trust is hard to come by in that industry, I trust these guys! AAA members, use this place- U get a discount. read more

Visually didn't pass me on my smog yet they proceeded with running the functional test even though they knew it would fail. On top of that they said they wouldn't give a free retest. Feel ripped off and will never be back nor recommend anyone else about this place. Honest businesses receive my business! read more

The old man and woman in that office are rude and are way too busy for new customers. I called AAA back and told them they are not welcoming to new customers and way too busy. They are after money primarily from what I can tell from the conversation I had with them. I drove off and will never go back. They have arrogance in their attitude. read more

The DMV recommended this place to get a smog check. So I went, and they were very quick. I was in and out within 30 minutes. They were very polite and the waiting room was clean. When I need repairs I will take my car here. read more

No one likes going in for a smog check, but these guys were quick and didn't break my wallet, especially since I'm a AAA member.

Stop by because my truck need a oil change. They took me in right I in. The owners r very nice people.

These guys are very professional, experts in knowledge and overall good guys. I just got a used car 2 days ago and a hose came loose. I would have fixed it myself but I don't like going under a jacked up car. I had it towed to them and they attached it with no charge except for coolant. Really, who provides that level if service these days? So, since I saved money on my hose service I had them do a full oil change at a very reasonable price. BMW would have charged me almost double. They used full synthetic and the proper coolant for my car. It wasn't a "let's see what we have on-hand" just to get it done. I will definitely be using them again whenever I have a need. Great price but more importantly is they're honest. That alone makes it worth more to me than the good price. Plus, they all seem like very good, decent, and honest folk. I was in and out in around an hour. One word, awesome. read more

Jim and Jan were so rude unreal. Made me feel awful, that I did not know about my cars myself. What is their job then? Very pricey and that was the estimate. I would not recommend this place to anyone! Jim talked to me worse than any other business owner has ever talked to me in all 55 years of life! Got my car repaired at another local place, was treated so nicely. I have told a number of women esp do not take their cars to place where they could be treated so rudely. They thanked me, and said they heard the same thing, but were unsure. I know a lot of people in this town, and have told many of them, esp if they need car repair. Kindness begets kindness Jim and Jan, also gets you business or can destroy your business. read more

Chino Autotech is the most honest and friendly auto shop. Their office, customer lounge, and auto shop are so clean and organized. Jim is friendly and very knowledgeable on import and domestic cars and answers questions with the utmost patience. Jan is also friendly and makes me feel 'at home'. They do great work on cars! I will be a returning custmomer. I highly recommend Chino Autotech! read more

This is my second time to use Chno Autotech for a smog test. I was able to call and get a same day appointment and they did my service nicely and professionally. I usually have the dealer service my cars but when I need something like this Chino Autotech is a great alternative. read more

I took a car here a few years ago for a "new car check" - cost me $311. They passed the car. A few weeks later the engine failed and I had to replace the engine to the tune of $4,500 - they found metal filings in the engine. Why did Chino Autotech not find them? Save yourself a major headache and go somewhere else. I would sue but I moved out of the area :( read more

STAY AWAY. This shop hides and inflates charges. I took my car to this shop for an estimate for repairs. When I received the estimate, I found out they had doubled the price of the parts they were going to use. I literally bought the parts for half of what they were going to charge me and had my car fixed elsewhere. They will charge you double the price. They chargd me for the free estimate! STAY AWAY! read more

Five starts is hard to rate for a Auto mechanic but these folks deserve it. Honest and forthright with the repairs needed, we have been sold on them ever since my son recommended them three years ago. Family owned and operated for over twenty years, I think...don't hesitate to go there! read more

Very honest helpful staff very friendly I would recommend Chino Autotech to my friends

VERY pleasant experience. Polite, fit me in, took less time than estimated, got a AAA discount, comfortable waiting area. Going back soon!

I was referred to Chino Autotech by AAA. The service here is outstanding. There are many smog stations that seem sketchy and you feel uncomfortable going there but here I felt that my car was in good hands and the entire experience was top notch read more

I submitted mu vehicle for a fuel filter exchange because it was leaking gas. I requested for the old part because they advised me that the fuel filter I had did not fit properly. I believed them. When I asked for the old part their reaction is I never told them so I felt I was being swindled. I checked the service and took it to a mechanic and found out it was the same filter I had on it and the only thing they did was reinsert a fuel line back. Now, i am out 250 dollars. They have no honesty in what they call integrity. They are like any mechanic finding ways on how to screw over any patron. Be aware and do the research of your mechanic problem if you plan on taking it to them read more

I've been to Chino Auto Tech about 4 times. I was impressed from the very first visit. The first time I went my car was leaking power steering fluid. I went to the shop about 20 minutes before they closed and asked if they could just put some fluid in it so I could get home. They were kind enough to do so and also advise me that the hose needed to be replaced. They took the time put in the fluid and bleed the system and sent me on my way, no charge. I returned the next week to have the hose replaced. They told me the pump might need to be replaced and sure enough, not long after this repair the pump went out. I went back to them for the pump replacement. It wasn't long before something else was leaking from my car. Again, I bolted over about 20 minutes before they closed and they were again nice enough to take the time to check it out. While the tech was looking at the car Jan was thoughtful enough to ask me what my plan B was the vehicle was not drivable. I told her I would have to rent a car. She got on the phone right away and called Enterprise and let them know I might need a car. Once the need for repair was confirmed she called them back and let them know I was on my way over. She had one of the employees drive me to Enterprise to pick up the car. Every time I have gone there they have had someone drive me down the street to work and I was just so impressed that anyone cared enough to know how I was getting home or wherever else I was going. A lot of places will barely let you use their phone to call someone to come and pick you up. Now, let me say I don't know enough about cars to know what prices are good and fair and whether or not I am being gouged at Auto tech but to be honest with you they are so thoughtful and professional that I almost would not care if I was paying too much. But really and seriously based on how they conduct their business and how they treat the customer I would doubt very seriously if they were being unfair or unscrupulous with their pricing. I also appreciate that when they look at your car they are thorough and let you know what is going on and what else may need attention. I used to take the car to another shop in the same business center as Auto Tech and they would basically fix whatever was the exact problem when you came in. So, if a hose was leaking they would replace the hose but not bother to tell you that the hose right next to it was cracked and crumbling; that sort of thing. After two visits I stopped going there and started going to AAA recommended Chino Auto Tech. Unless I have some unforeseen poor experience (or am blessed with a car that is NOT a lemon) I will probably keep going back. read more

Stay Away! This shop hides and inflates charges. They not only charge you for the labor to repair your car, they increase the price of the parts by 200%. They buy parts wholesale, and then sell them to you for more than double what you can buy them for at a retail auto parts store. Absolutely awful service. read more
