We only trust our Car Care with Vilius and his crew. He never tries to oversell anything and we trust whatever he suggests. I would highly recommend this business. read more

I was about to head on a trip in my "new" 1999 Tahoe, so I thought I'd get everything looked over. Everyone here was extremely welcoming, friendly, and did excellent work. I also asked for a list of anything they think I may need to fix/replace in the future. Zac did an excellent job. Will definitely return in the future. read more

Fantastic experience here today, worked with a few different guys there and all were very kind and knowledgeable. They even brought me into the shop to physically show me some things underneath my car. So professional, nice and reasonably priced. 10/10 would recommend to anyone. read more

I've been going to Vilius for years, and he's always been incredible -- honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about his customers. I recently brought in my 2003 Toyota Tacoma thinking I had a serious problem, but Vilius checked it out and found it was just a few simple fixes. They tightened the belts, repaired a headlight, and cleared some debris out of my AC motor -- that's it. They could have easily upsold me, but instead they were upfront and fair, just like always. It's so rare to find a shop with that kind of honesty and integrity. Convenient Car Care is the only place I'll ever take my cars. read more

Thanks to Groupon I found this shop. I just needed an oil change. They took care of that at a very reasonable price. The shop is clean and the waiting area even had a Keurig coffee unit for customer use. They even took the time to check the tire air pressure as part of their service. Customer service is 5 star. It's good to have a professional trustworthy shop to go to for whatever is required for my Chevy Equinox LT! read more

BEWARE!!! THEY WILL TRY TO UPSALE YOU. They were incredibly rude and condescending as well. I suggest going down to Jiffylube, it was much cheaper as well. read more

Came here for a second time to get my oil changed and diff fluid. Cost was reasonable. He did find some stuff and spark plug quote was a bit high, but overall happy with the second oil change. read more

I needed a safety inspection done on my car and Convenience Car Care came highly recommended. Vilius did it himself in about 20 minutes which I appreciated. He was very professional and friendly. The shop office is very well kept and clean. I'll be getting my next oil change and service here. read more

I went in for an oil change, which went fine. Afterwards, the mechanic informed me that he did an inspection and found that my breaks were bad and needed to be replaced. I told him I'd wait, but would take an estimate. I decided to change my own breaks to save money. So, I ordered all new parts and pulled off the tires. You can guess what I found, the break pads were barely halfway worn and the rotors were fine. Great, I wasted all that time getting the parts for nothing, and then I had to go return them. How did the mechanic blunder up such a basic inspection? I have my suspicions, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. The guy needs to be retrained on how to properly do his job. read more

If you're reading this, you 100% should come here. This is my go-to mechanic shop now. I've been here a few times now and they're extremely easy to work with. The owner has explained everything he has done with my car to me in terms that I (someone who knows jack about cars) can understand. He has done this every time I've been here as well. Great guy, extremely knowledgeable. When I have gotten work done, it's usually done ahead of schedule and the prices are reasonable considering the work I have gotten done. The lounge is also super comfortable in case you have to wait here. Great shop. I highly recommend it! read more

Was looking for a local mechanic to do some routine maintenance on one of my vehicles. Took my car in for front brakes and rotors, along with an AC recharge, transmission fluid change and brake fluid flush. Final bill came out to over $900, which for what was received didn't seem terrible. Plus as a veteran it is nice when a business offers a military discount. They did a good job, so when another vehicle of mine had an issue I returned with my truck that had a check engine light on. I was able to pull the code myself and told that we would start with changing out the spark plugs since they were about due anyways. Called me with a quote, which i agreed to. After picking up my truck and arriving home, i noticed that the parts charge for my spark plugs was over $250. Since i was unfamiliar with the spark plugs needed, i looked them up to validate pricing and was disappointed to find out that i could have purchased them myself for $110. That's over$140 price difference just on the parts. When i called to ask why there was such a price discrepancy, i was told the shop couldnt compete with online prices, and they needed to make money on the parts as well. I understand they are a business that needs to make money, but expecting me to believe that just anybody could buy these cheaper than a shop, either meant that their supplier was grossly overcharging them or they were doing so to me. I also didn't appreciate being charged almost $70 for a "check engine light", when i had already provided the error code details. I will say that in terms of the work itself, i've been very pleased with this shop. And anyone considering them can rely on their work. Just not a fan as a consumer for being charged so much for identical items that are readily available at significantly cheaper prices. Unfortunately i won't be back, but anyone that doesnt mind paying a hefty premium on parts should try this place out knowing that the work will be done correctly and thoroughly. read more

Was refired by my church Pastor. He was 100% correct. Vilius and his techs were courteous, respectful and honest in dealing with me concerning a seized water pump in my 2003 Ford Focus. Straight forward assessment of problem and solution. Work completed on day promised and at estimate quoted. Second visit due to a couple coolant leaks noticed recently. Again, inspected vehicle needs and quoted repairs properly without any attempted upsells. Work performed 2 days ago on time and this time under budget! No craziness, coupons, or bravado - - - just old-fashioned honest service! Highly recommend this business, having come from running auto repair shops myself for well over 20 years before retiring in 2010. Good people. Decent pricing. Talented technicians. Excellent customer service. read more

This place is LEGIT. I have a newish VW Beetle and finding people that carry 5W40 oil is tricky.. so I asked the owner if i could get an oil change if I brought me own oil. He obliged. Thank GOD he did because he is old school and gave me best oil change (there is a difference) AND went the extra mile to reset my electrical thingamajig, curing an electrical issue I had been having that I had given up on having fixed!!! He ALSO replaced my taillight bulb! My car isn't the most user-friendly for mechanics. DUDE. This man knew his stuff and my car was annoying and he went the extra mile for me!!! THANK YOU!!! I'm going back when/if I need anything!!! read more

I stopped in for an oil change with my groupon after setting an appointment with them just the day before. The staff were friendly and accommodating. I would def come back here again. Stop in and support local! read more

Just recently moved to Carlsbad from Orange County and I was looking for an auto shop to take my Mercedes. I am so happy I found Convenient Care Care for my service A which is basically just an oil change. I called ahead to make an appointment and they were able to fit me in right away. Every other shop literally quoted me over double the price. Convenient Care Care was quick, cost effective and convenient. I also appreciate that they didn't try to upset me on services I didn't need. Since I am not super literate in car maintenance I appreciate the honesty and the customer service of this shop. I will not take my car anywhere else I highly recommend this shop for all your car care needs. Thank you Convenient Car Care! read more

I just took my 2014 Hyundai in for an oil change - just before hitting 100K! I did this after reading several recent reviews! Boy! They lived up to all the 5 star reviews! Called ahead for an appointment and was easily accommodated. Arrived to have exceptional and quick service! NO UPSELLS! I felt he was incredibly transparent about upcoming services and I will definitely go back! So nice to find honest and caring customer service! And to top it off.....I was In and OUT in no time! Thanks! read more

This morning my car started trembling terribly on my way towards work. I thought I was down bad but thankfully and courageously I made my way to Convenient Car Care where I was quickly greeted and instructed right away and I made way towards my new and improved day! Right as I'd finish work they said the car was ready and conveniently good to go with a fair price as for it was my spark plugs. Thanks for the help and would definitely recommend read more

Vilius was great! The whole team did a great job not only with my oil change but tightening bolts that they didn't need to. This is above and beyond service for a great price 100% recommend read more

This is my go-to place for car maintenance because they're reliable, prices are fair, and it's easy to book a same-day appointment.

Absolute rubbish and liar. They use groupon with a cheap oil change to capture new clients, which he loses money offering the groupon, to then lie and deceive you into believing you have way more issues with the car. He absolutely lied about about a "huge oil leak" all through my engine. I took it to another mechanic to get another opinion and he is totally wrong- either he doesn't know what he's doing or he's scamming me, trying to tell me I need to leave my car there for a few days with $135/hr rates. absolute con- DO NOT TRUST THEM! or buy their Groupon- you'll come out with a whole slew of issues. Good thing there are other trustworthy mechanics out there. read more

I came in with a Groupon coupon for an oil change, these guys immediately accepted the Groupon and they changed my oil so quickly and concisely. The service was extremely cheap and they were extremely professional and nice. It felt good to be comfortable in a car place as a woman. Would definitely recommend. read more

I took my Hyundai Elantra to Convenient Car Care for a routine oil change. You'll need to call ahead to make an appointment and they were able to make an appointment for me the same day. The tech was very nice. He greeted me when I walked in and started on my car right away. I was in and out of there in less than 40 minutes. He took the initiative to put air in my tires too. And he also honored my Groupon voucher. I should also mention the cleanliness of the shop. I've been to a cleaner auto shop! read more

I went to convenient car care for an oil change, and during the process they did such a good job that they were able to diagnose other problems with my car. They were able to give me immediate estimates that were fair priced and affordable.Bilius is a wonderful guy, who is very trustworthy, honest, and at the top of his field. I trust the guys at convenient car, care to take charge of the safety of my vehicle, fair prices, excellent work, and honesty is what you will find here at convenient car care. Thanks guys for taking care of the safety of my vehicle and for being so awesome. read more

I would not go to any other mechanic. These guys are so genuine- I never feel like I am being taken advantage of. They are always willing to get me in and never are rushing me to make a decision and get out. Can't put a price on a mechanic you trust! read more

I am so glad I found this place! Doing car maintenance always scares me because I do not know much about car care and have been previously over charged. The shop owner explained to me the different oil options and the pricing for them before they did the oil change. Having someone take the time to explain to me what was going on with my vehicle, was so nice and it made me feel really comfortable. I am so thankful to have a local shop to take my car to. read more

I bought a Groupon for synthetic blend for a $29 oil change. Then I was charged almost $19 for 1 extra quart of oil bc the service came with 5 quarts. Charging $19 for a quart of oil is ridiculous. read more

The owner, Villius (sorry V, if I spelled it wrong) is one of the coolest and straight forward people I have met. I am in outside sales and stumbled upon CCC during work hours. Mechanics, smog shops, brake shops etc are a large portion of my client base. I can't tell you the horror that I have seen, the state of some of these waiting areas look like a place designed to make you fear touching any surface would mean an ambulance should be called to take you to the ER. One shop looked like a hoarder had inherited a bunch of junk from another hoarder. It was like Hoarder times Hoarder. CCC looks like a high end dentist office. The bay is sparkling and the biggest thing is that I feel even if one of my vehicles had serious issues, even if the amount needed to repair would be painful--at least in my heart I feel Convenient Car Care would only charge what is needed to fix the car. I strongly recommend anyone in San Diego County to start with an oil change. Just experience the vibe and meet V. If there is a major issue, get your car towed here. I would save the address in case something happens to your car or you need regular service in the near future. Oh, if you have to wait go down a few shops North, there is an awesome Cockatoo parrot that is often bored and would love to meet a new friend. read more

I am more than happy to add another 5 Star review for this business. Everyone were professional and relaxed from the moment I brought my 2011 Jeep JKU here for a basic oil change(Thanks Groupon) & Radiator Flush. No pushing on upsales or B.S. that can happen at car care places. Their facility is clean and they treat you with a kind smile and respect. I would highly recommend that you give yourself and vehicle a try here. You have nothing to lose except extra money spent elsewhere. read more

"Convenient" is a misnomer. Avoid. I bought a Groupon from this company specifically because they said on the ad: same day appointments available. I've now tried twice, over the course of the few weeks since I bought it, to make an appointment. Vilious, the manager, has twice now indicated same day appointments are unavailable - so are next-day appointments - you'll have to have several days' notice. When I called back to try again, he talked over me more times than I can count and offered no empathy, no suggestions, no help. I told him one of the reasons I bought the Groupon was because of the assurance in advertising that same day appointments were available, and he continued to talk over me with circular, no-help flippancy. There are too many options out there to put up with this kind of customer service. I'm also not a big fan of false advertisement. read more

Exceptional service from these guys! Was referred by a co-worker and originally came in for a few hundred dollar job (still cheaper than everywhere else) and the mechanic ended up diagnosing and finding that the root problem was not what I came in for after all. Instead I only paid $100 for a brand new battery. This is the kind of honesty that we would all expect from any shop and mechanic and these guys did just that. Highly recommend this place for any type of car service for anyone who's looking for an honest, hardworking shop that cares about the customers and nothing less. Thank you again Convenient Car Care! read more

A big shout out to Jayden and Philius! First time here with a Groupon, had an appointment. Jayden was nice to clean my oil pan. Great job! Didn't take long either. Will come back! read more

We needed an oil change and their service was fast and reasonable price. Waiting room area was nice and clean. Will probably take all my future oil changes to this place. read more

Came here for an oil change. They recommended I put synthetic oil in rather than blended (which the dealership had always done before). Was not pushy at all, and we decided synthetic was worth the extra money due to Convenient Car Care explaining how it affects cooling the turbo system in my car. Dealership never bothered to mention anything like that. Appreciate the honesty, quick service, and great customer service. Glad to give our business here. Thanks guys!! read more

I am so glad I found CCC years ago. Vilius and his team are amazing. We bring all our cars here for service. They let you know what's going on every step of the way. The prices are fair, his service is above and beyond the competition. read more

Good service to my car as usual. But I was so disappointed and uncomfortable that none of the workers were wearing masks. The person that rang me up got very close to me and I had to back away. They didn't put on a mask till the very end of my transaction (only when a co-worker asked them to). They'd driven my car without a mask which really ticked me off. I wanted to tell them I would've left a tip if they'd worn a mask. Not sure if I'll be coming back, at least during COVID especially because of my relatives with underlying conditions. read more

This place is . Definitely recommend coming here.. came in for an oil change which I got on Groupon, the front desk lady was nice and helpful, the team found a leak and brought me under to take a look and talk about possibilities going forward etc.. the waiting areas are comfortable and clean. Thanks guys I'll be back read more

Such great service! The owner (think it's Bilius) is honest and incredibly fair with his pricing. Drove over a median before coming in and did a thorough look thru with no upselling and even fixed some of the cosmetics for free by popping some stuff out. Earned a customer for the long haul. read more
