My car was making a crazy noise every time I turned on and little by little I started smelling more and more fumes that I couldn't even use my AC. I took it in to see if they could check it out. I was lucky to have spoken to Anthony. He was very kind but direct and showed me what the possible problem could be based on the age of the car, sound and fumes. But he made it clear he would need to use the lift to confirm. He was apologetic he couldn't take care of it right away due to their current workload so I took it in the next week, and in the same day it was ready for pick up. He was right, it was the part he thought but instead of a crack it was fully broken in half! Luckily, he is a welder and I didn't need to buy a new piece. It was my first time going to a mechanic in Corona so I appreciated the service received as I was anxious to find a reliable mechanic. The cost was fair and I am so appreciative it was done so quick. My car is running great again! read more

I called this shop and after just briefly describing my car issue, the person on the phone was able to diagnose the issue and stated it would be $1,000. I told him that I had the check engine scanned and it was something else, then he changed his "diagnoses" and stated what needed to be done and again stated it would be $1,000. It seems more like this guy just wanted $1,000. I highly suggest going to another shop. read more

I took my car n a few weeks ago for a lot of work to be done. I had a list from brakes , front suspension, wheel bearings, cabin filter and more. All the work was done in an extremely timely fashion. All of my old parts were in my trunk as requested. I am so happy with the work that was done. I had studied auto mechanics in high school and college however I don't have the time and all of the tools needed for the repairs so finding someone to trust with my car repairs is extremely important. Thank you Kevin for a job well done, I could not be happier. Tamira read more

Now THAT'S CONVIENCE for you!! :) So, NOW not ONLY did I purchase my car last year in March, 2021, I have now 'TOTALLY' paid OFF my 2017, Nissan Altima Sedan THIS YEAR, and I am 'OFFICIALLY' the OWNER of my car now with NO MORE Car payments!! *WHEW*!!

To my surprise.... This little shop on 6th street is the real thing! Excellent price, excellent work. I called on a Tuesday and got a quote. Arrived the next morning and my truck was done at noon.

This afternoon my car wouldn't start and it being late in the day, I was worried I'd be without my car for the rest of the weekend. On a hope I had my car towed to Corona Auto Repair Services fully prepared to have to wait until Monday to have my car fixed. Kevin was super welcoming, came to me and said to give him and his team 2 hours. DEAL! However, within 50 minutes my car was ready AND Kevin gave me a fair price for the repair. I'm so grateful to Kevin and his team who hustled in 100 degree heat to fix my car. If I have any issues with my car or even just a oil change, I'm going back here first.

Locally owned, Independent shop don't have flashy advertising. C.A.R.S. definitely earns the outstanding rating given their customers. Good, honest mechanics are worth their weight in gold. Find them, hold on to them. Treat them nice. They save you hundreds if not more. I brought in a car with unknown history and could need several repairs. Providing opportunities for C.A.R.S. to upsell and perform more maintenance. After investigated all my concerns and providing clear explainations; They repaired only what the car needed. Expect to see some of my friends and coworkers soon. Thanks Kevin! =þ read more

Kevin is honest about what is truly wrong with your car. He never over charges you for services, and his pricing is very fair. I had my AC recharged by him and it was blowing ice cold for 2 days and then stopped. I called Kevin to let him know and he said bring it down same day so he can fix the problem. After going round and round with my car I knew I needed fresh eyes on it. Kevin is and always will be those fresh eyes. If it is an oil change, brakes or even full service I trust Kevin and his employees with ALL my cars! Thank you CARS for being so great to everyone who comes into your shop! We appreciate you guys! read more

I came here in an emergency one day when my car suddenly overheated and I am so happy I did because I was able to have my car fixed right away and the staff was so friendly and helpful.

I came back to have my bumper repaired after not having it fixed for seven years because I was trying to find the best price for service and the quality of the work was amazing! I didn't care to have my bumper painted so that was my personal choice. I'm so glad I found and chose Corona Auto Repair services! read more

Kevin is always kind and straightforward when it comes to answering your car questions. I needed an engine oil change and my check engine light was on. They didn't have time to do my oil change but his team member ran the test real quick to see what the check engine light was about. I will definitely be coming back! read more

Friday morning I discovered that my alternator needed to be replaced ASAP. Kevin at Corona Auto Repair took my car in very quickly that morning & ensured me it was in great hands. He even checked all of my fluids to ensure ya girl was in great shape! (Let's just say I was low on everything lol) I still was able to make it into work that day. Outstanding service! Thank you guys. read more

Just amazing ; I'm probably still alive thanks to Kevin and his crew. A couple of months ago my 200k miles car putted out on the freeway from a dead battery and alternator. When I got the car, I could not believe that not only my primary issues (battery and alternator) were resolved, but that what was a baseline noisy old engine is now quiet as a whisper, and the car that I knew was at the end of it's life, drove amazingly efficient and smooth again. This was the 4th mechanic I went to, finally someone that is reasonably priced and actually cared about the details of the car! I was amazed.. Now what's more amazing however was that three weeks ago week I ran straight into a deer at 85 miles/hr on the fast track lane on the 5 freeway, which skidded me 8 TIMES ACROSS the lanes and finally crashed into the far left rail. My car was totaled. I had to admit to calling quits of the old trusty car that has been with me for the past 11 years through all my life struggles. Last ditch effort, called trusty Kevin up again hahaha, "help?". Mind this car was not only squished and dragging, but reeked incredibly bad of dead deer caucus (blood and fur meat and all). He said, no it'll stink for miles! After a bit of convincing, I had AAA drop off the car. When I picked it up, it was like Cinderellas chariot again. Smooth and no longer reeking of dead deer. What the hell, I'm not sure whether to be amazed I survived the accident or that the car is now still running smooth! So now here I am finally writing the long deserved review. This is a very honest and trustworthy mechanic that has a passion for what he's doing and would go above and beyond to make your car running as best as it can. So glad I don't have to think twice again to find a good mechanic. read more

They are simply the best. They fixed the starter on my Toyota Sequioa in a day. Their price is fair and honest. I'm glad I found them. Thank you so much guys!! L. Montilla read more

Thorough, honesty and fair. All things that I experienced on my first visit to this old school auto shop that's connected to a gas station. But I couldn't be more impressed with Kevin and his crew. It took them 1 day to diagnose and repair an issue that took the dealership 4 days to just diagnose. Kevin also kept me updated on the findings and repairs as they were happening. Best part, the prices were fair. Thanks Kevin! You've earned my business and any business I can send your way! read more

We have NEVER been so impressed and happy with a repair shop until we met Kevin at Corona Auto. It's been years of consistent, top notch, reliable, honest service, and repairs. We will be moving out of California and I'm honestly sad that we will need to find another shop. I wish we could take Kevin, his wife, and his entire team with us to Minnesota. Kevin is thorough, trustworthy, affordable, and he genuinely cares about his customers. Thank you for the years of A+ service! We will miss you! read more

Was with some friends and their car broke down on the side of the road. Called some local shops to see if they could help replace the alternator for us. Corona Auto Repair services came through and offered to help us out and get our alternator replaced asap. We got the car towed to their shop and they already had tools out waiting for us. They even went to the parts store for us to pick up the alternator we ordered. Bottom line, these guys are absolute legends. Got us out of their shop in less than 45 minutes. read more

One of the most honest mechanics I have ever met! I called because I needed a full inspection on a used car before I purchase form a private owner. Kevin took his time and answered all my questions with honesty and professionalism. He asked all the right questions and walked me through the complete inspection process. He spent about 25 minutes on the phone with me because I had so many questions. I had a really good first impression when I spoke to Kevin over the phone. Upon arrival to his shop, I was greeted and Kevin got right to the point. He took his time and inspected all components of the car and gave me a summary of the items that needed to be fixed. He literally walked around the car with a check list and completed every single item on the list. He offered me different options and didn't pressure any up-sale or hassle with the price. Wow, I was thoroughly impressed with his due diligence. I purchased the car and am now very happy with the purchase. I live about 60 miles away but I still come back to Kevin's shop because of his excellent level of customer service and his positive attitude. Since the purchase date, I have had two major job with Kevin and have been completely satisfied. Yes, I literally travel 60 miles each way to see Kevin!! You need to come to see Kevin for all your cars need. He will be straight up and honest with you and his price is very competitive. Corona's best mechanic shop is at Corona Auto Repair Services with Kevin. I am a lifelong customer to this shop! read more

I have been coming here for quite a while now and have been referring friends to Kevin and his crew. This is the best auto shop in the area by far. Kevin will not bs you but will honestly let you know what your car needs without trying to empty your wallet. Even though he is always busy he will never make you feel that you are a bother and magically gets your car back to you in a timely manner. read more

I took my car here after visiting 4 different car shops. They took really good care of me. I will be taking all my cars to this shop from on. Very friendly staff and explain exactly what's wrong/needed. 1 stop shop for all your needs! Highly recommend. read more

By far one of the most honest reliable shops I've been to. They answer the phone or call you back if they miss your call. Upfront they give you a price and doesn't change it when you show up. Worked on the car accurate to their estimation. Not only are his prices the most reasonable. For an oil change and 20% tip cost less than most places regular price without tip. Kevin was totally up front with what needed and didn't need to be repaired. Gave me an honest truth despite how easy he could've convinced me to get additional repairs. I'm literally blown away at the experience I had. In all my years. Repair shops that are messy are the best ones. I've been to nice and neat shops that rip you off to where you can't even tip if you wanted to. I don't write reviews a lot. But to places where I think they were horrific or really deserve the review. read more

Wow, Corona Auto Repair Services is GREAT! I'm a loyal Chevy owner for the past 20 years and have generally gone back to the dealer for all repair issues (usually still covered under extended warranty). However, after the last few issues that were no longer covered by warranty, I felt the sting of paying those dealer repair prices. When my Suburban's AC stopped blowing cold air, I decided to try to find a local shop instead and roll the dice. Fortunately I researched auto repair on Yelp and found Corona Auto Repair with high ratings. I went there today, without an appointment and in the early afternoon fully expecting they would need to keep the car for days etc. To my surprise, Kevin was quick to greet me and see how he could help. He did some initial diagnosis and had a pretty good feeling the freon just needed to be recharged. I had him also look at a defroster issue for the back window (something the Chevy dealer wanted to charge me $100s to fix/replace). Kevin called me an hour later, all fixed, ready to go! I was blown away how efficient and reasonably priced he was! Upfront pricing. No shenanigans. Friendly service. Quick repairs. It's great to know I have a reliable mechanic here in town I can now go to! Customer for life ... thanks Kevin! read more

Amazing customer service! Kevin is the go to guy here. I needed a new engine and it felt like every shop i called didn't want to help me until I was recommended to Kevin.

Always very satisfied. read more

I moved to Corona two years ago from L.A. County and this was the first place I chose to interview when searching for a new mechanic.

Would definitely recommend for anybody in the area. Great service read more
