Eddie has been my trusted mechanic for over 15 years. Recently, I brought in my Camaro--yes, an American-made vehicle--and he took care of the issue very well. He also took the time to explain the process and which part needed replacing! His pricing is fair, and he completed the repairs quickly. That's all any customer hopes for, plus he's a truly talented mechanic! read more

I was referred to this shop by close friends who have trusted them with their cars for years. It took me a while to bring my own vehicles in, but I'm so glad I did--they did not disappoint. The service was excellent, the staff was friendly and helpful, and they went out of their way to accommodate us when we needed it most. Pricing was also very reasonable for the quality of work provided. We've definitely found our new go-to mechanic. read more

See all

I've been bringing my wife's Hondas--previously, her Accord and then, her CR-V--to Eddie's for the past few years when service/repairs are needed that I am unable or unwilling to do. I've had no issues and the service provided has been very good. Apart from my wife's cars, I've also taken my Mazda Miata to them for custom alignment work a couple of times and they've done a great job; they were able to set specific alignment specs I requested after I installed new suspension components in preparation for HPDE events at Buttonwillow Raceway. Based on my experiences, I highly recommend Eddie's to those with Japanese cars. I can't speak to their knowledge or service on American or European brands, however. Eddie is a trustworthy guy and I will gladly continue doing business with him. read more

Eddie's Automotive - "Daphne" ready for HPDE events at Buttonwillow - Auto Repair Near Me - Bakersfield, California

This is a great place to take your car, honest, just plain old good folks that will take care of your car which is hard to find nowadays.I would have to say no matter what brand car I have I would bring it here to have worked out. I have even driven from 200 miles away to have work done previously in years past read more

The most honest car repair place I've ever been to. I brought my car to a specialist in Italian vehicles, as there is no place in town that works on Maseratis. The place in Pasadena told me I needed new brakes and it would be very costly. Eddie checked out the car thoroughly and said I wouldn't need any for another 5-10,000 miles . He saved me so much $$ and unnecessary maintenance. Eddie is a professional mechanic and race car driver who knows cars better than anyone! He's built his own and has an enormous display of trophy's he has won from all the races he's competed in. He's been doing this over 30 years and I would not trust anyone else to work on all of my cars! Highest recommendation!! read more

Very good, nice , honest folks. Fair pricing. I highly recommend them. We compared many other shops their pricing was half what others were charging read more

This is a great auto shop. Eddie and his crew can fix anything! Customer service is great, and the prices are very reasonable. This the only place that I take my car. read more

The most honest mechanic I have ever had an experience with. I found Eddie on yelp and all of the reviews are correct. He is outstanding! I took my car to Honda and they quoted me $800, so I took my car to Eddie's because they quoted me a price much better than Barber Honda. Turns out, I didn't even need the part replaced! Eddie gave me all of the details explaining what was really wrong. He was clear and precise in his diagnosis. Barber Honda can kick bricks. Eddie was honest enough to not sell me a service I didn't need. I am very grateful for an honest mechanic. He has a new customer for life. read more

I love Eddie! I've known this guy for years. He's very knowledgeable and very trustworthy. You can't go wrong.

Been coming to Eddie's for over 10 years and I'll never go elsewhere. I always get honesty, great service, and really fair prices. They know auto repair and they care about their customers. This shop has no being at all. It has nothing shiny. There is no TV's in the lobby. That's a good thing. Eddie's does auto repair. They are a car shop. There are gearheads hank Kim up front and they work on cars. Not only that, they do great work. So I can live without the being. I'll sit in the dusty office area super happy to know that I'm about to get a great repair at a perfect price. read more

Eddie's Automotive - Storefront on Chester Avenue just north of the circle. - Auto Repair Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Verbally quotes you a price and then you pay double when it's finished. Sort of like, I am selling my car for 4k and then when buyer arrives, it's 8k. In addition,Eddie charged me $500.00 to R&R a valve cover casket (oil leak). Brought the car home that night and oil leak still there; same size, same spot. Eddie's comment....."keep your eye on it". Warranty is not in his vocabulary. read more

They are not responsible - had them try to fix the rough idle in our Honda CRV - 2 attempts and a few hundred later not fixed - then they tried to fix the oil leak , it stoped for a month then back dripping again - $48 for a gasket - it still leaks - not sure they are capable after 3 Times taking the car down - You can call me for additional Info Brock 599-1126 read more

Eddies bought Tim Pearson's alignment shop, located in an adjacent shop, and now performs top quality alignments. RYAN, a highly experienced expert trained by Pearson, has stayed on to continue the shop's tradition--first rate alignments priced lower than chain shops. I got in and out in 15 minutes today, and my tires will not wear out so quickly. read more

In my opinion Eddie's provides the best support and mechanical service in Bakersfield. We take all our cars to them. staff is great, friendly, honest, and professional. Their customer service is top notch as is the work they provide. Another huge plus Eddies is not ridiculously over priced & has never tried to push any unnecessary repairs on us. read more

I thought the business owner had retired but it turned out he had been forced to change the business name. Very glad I found out he was still in business. Local dealer quoted almost $4,000 for recommended repairs. Eddie honestly diagnosed the problems and fixed all known issues the same day for $620. Very impressive! read more

So fast and efficient! They gave me options of what to get done, gave their opinion but withheld any pushy behavior. They worked hard and got down to business. I didn't see anyone standing around or wasting time. They walked me to my vehicle and physically showed and explained to me what they would do before hand, huge plus for someone that knows NOTHING about cars. I really trusted them and they gave me the best price in town. Work was top notch also! No problems since read more

Eddie's automotive is my go-to shop for automotive repair. Eddie and his team are always able to correctly diagnose what is wrong with my vehicle, fix it appropriately the first time, and do so for a fair price. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because the shop is not consistently about contacting me when my vehicle is done even when they say they will do so. However, that is a small price to pay for someone who does an honest job fixing my vehicle. read more

I would not recommend Eddies Automotive, we were charged $400 for repairs that were under warranty. We notified them about the charge and they refuse to refund us the $ 400 refund we were entitled to. We called them several times, they hung up on us and gave us the run around regarding a refund. We finally gave up on receiving a refund. I believe they are not the original owners so not all reviews are indicative of current ownership honesty and practices. Its just so hard to find honest mechanic shops these days, pretty sad for consumers. read more
