    I had a small issue with my car and wasn't sure where to take it. One of my clients recommended Denny's Automotive in Orangevale, and I'm honestly so glad they did. Robert, the technician, spotted the problem in about three minutes, turned out to be something minor.. and they fixed it on the spot without charging me a thing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mike, the owner, is one of those rare, genuinely kind people. He didn't charge me for the inspection either. No games, no pressure, just real, honest help.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's rare to come across a shop that treats people like this. I left feeling taken care of, and if there's ever anything I can do to return the favor, I'd be happy to.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend checking them out if you want honest work and good people.

    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!

    I had some work done on my 2017 Toyota Corolla a while back and I paid a premium price comparable…read moreto the dealership at this shop. The work was good, but the parts pricing was extreme. The labor is $215 an hour and on top of that, they marked up basic parts by 100% to nearly 400% over standard retail prices. Here is exactly what I was charged compared to what these parts sell for at AutoZone or Toyota directly: · Spark Plugs (Denso, 4 plugs): Charged $77.97 each. Retail is about $16. That is a 387% markup. · Drive Belt: Charged $156.49. Retail is about $35. That is a 347% markup. · Purge Valve (aftermarket): Charged $224.90. Comparable retail is about $100. That is a 125% markup. · Fuel Cap: Charged $57.46. Toyota OEM retail is about $28. That is a 105% markup. · Throttle Cleaner: Charged $45.70. Retail is about $12. That is a 281% markup. Obviously, it was my bad that I trusted this place to have fair pricing and didn't do this research prior to paying/agreeing to service. I won't make that mistake again. I did bring it up with the service manager and he offered me a $200 credit for future service. That's not something I'm interested in. If you're looking for affordable prices, this is not the place.

    Decent Work, But Communication and Pricing Left a Bad Taste…read more I'll give them this much: the brake repair on my 2001 Ford Ranger was solid. They did good work getting me stopping again, and their assessment of the other deferred repairs the truck needs was thorough and informative. But two major issues bring this down. The Communication Problem Chris from the service desk kept saying he'd call or email me with updates -- and then... nothing. Left me hanging more than once. I shouldn't have to chase down answers about my own vehicle. That's basic customer service. The Pricing This is where I have real concerns. I had my regular mechanic look at the same itemized report. AAA Citrus Heights Auto Repair Center charged 66% more than my trusted guy for the same work. Here's the thing -- my truck wasn't drivable. The brakes failing made it unsafe. When a customer is in that position, they don't have much leverage to shop around. That puts us in a vulnerable spot, and the pricing feels predatory as a result. The One Bright Spot They did honor my Veterans discount -- 10% off a roughly $1,500 bill. I appreciate that, and the staff who applied it were professional. Bottom Line The actual repair work was good. The assessment was thorough. But the communication failures and what feels like opportunistic pricing mean I won't be going back -- and I can't in good conscience recommend them without caveats.

    I had to return to have my 2013 Cadillac realigned and I spoke with Rob…read morethe manager. He was very understanding and got me in the next day. The work was completed and Rob was terrific and so was the front office staff. Super CS five stars and thank you AAA !
