The customer service is excellent, the mechanics are knowledgeable, and most importantly, they're honest and trustworthy. They also provide great value -- fair pricing, quality work, and no unnecessary upselling. It's hard to find a mechanic shop you can truly rely on, and this is definitely one of them. Highly recommend! Thank you to Richard, Juan, Miguel, and Abraham!

Keith and his crew took care of the height adjustment and alignment, and I'm really happy with how everything turned out. The car looks and feels much better now.

Thank you to Keith and his crew for taking care of my car and doing the job right!

First time here today. Might be my new go-to my mechanic now…read more Got the oil changed, coolant drained and refilled, as well as the valve gasket cover replaced along with my air filter. My previous go-to mechanic tripped me with a quote of $575 for the valve gasket cover replacement (I assumed they meant the entire thing, not the rubber seal). So I went to this place due to reasonable prices. Their labor prices are also more competitive. The only downsize is that they don't do appointment. Otherwise; so far so good.

Leo just saved me $5000 and a major headache and i am so grateful. He took about 10 minutes to inspect the car and spotted several major issues and quickly advised me not to buy the car.

Their prices are so fair that I genuinely feel like they undercharge and wouldn't at all mind paying more. I first came here after the Toyota dealership told me my timing belt cover was leaking oil and wanted to charge me thousands of dollars. Lol. Came here for a second opinion and was reassured I'll be just fine, just top up oil every now and then. Been coming here ever since for every 5,000 mile maintenance! And to replace my spark plugs! I told my sister to bring her car here too for maintenance. This past weekend, her boyfriend's dad checked her oil level with the dipstick and said the oil was really low. She came back here to double check and turns out he was mistaken; she was totally fine. Truly wonderful people that you can trust without question. Very grateful for all they have done to help us.

I just picked up my car today so this is a long overdue review. I've been going to this shop since…read moreI was in college, and I'm 28 now, so they've been taking care of my cars thru my teenage self into adulthood. They worked on my Honda Civic for years until I eventually got my new car. They're trustworthy, reliable, and always provide quality work. Whenever I've had an issue, like when my AC stopped working, they made sure it was fixed properly. They've also always recommended repairs or maintenance when needed, usually before they became bigger problems. Over these past years, they've done my oil changes, replaced my windshield wipers, checked my engine, and helped with various other car issues. The shop is clean, there's seating in the waiting area, and the customer service is always great. I've always felt comfortable bringing my car here, and I wouldn't hesitate to come back whenever I need help. thank u guys for your support!!!

I had a wonderful experience at CAL Auto Service, thanks to Bryan…read more I needed the crossbars for my roof rack installed before my upcoming move. Since it was right before the Fourth of July holiday, I knew they were extremely busy and already had a full schedule. When I explained that I was moving next week and was on a tight timeline, Bryan went out of his way to fit me into his schedule, even though he was very busy. He installed my crossbars professionally and charged me a very fair price. I truly appreciated his kindness, flexibility, and excellent customer service. The waiting area was also clean and comfortable, with complimentary coffee and snacks, which made the experience even better. If I had known about CAL Auto Service sooner, I would have come here for my vehicle repairs as well. I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for honest, friendly, and reliable service. Thank you, Bryan!

A Japanese car, truck, van -- needs to be treated with TLC. Most Japanese cars, if you treat them…read moreright with regular maintenance, will give you a long and beautiful life. But the ones serviced at Cal Auto Service don't just live the longest -- they're the happiest. People wonder, "How does your Toyota/Lexus/Subaru/Honda/Acura last so long?" Simple: it was serviced and taken care of by Peter, Brian, and the rest of the team at Cal Auto. This spotless, comfortable shop in Santa Ana, Orange County redefines what a mechanic should be. The owners and employees treat every Japanese car like their own -- doesn't matter the age, the tech, whether it's fully loaded or stripped down. You feel like the world's top surgeons and the world's greatest detectives are working on your car, making sure it leaves better than new. The consistency is the cherry on top. You'd think, "I'm only getting this treatment because it's my first visit." Nope. It's white-glove service every single time. Spotless bathrooms. Water, hot coffee, snacks. A waiting area that's actually comfortable. This place makes the dealership service center -- or any third-party mechanic -- feel out of vogue. Like Latin: a dead language. And there's total transparency. A full, honest explanation of what's working and what's not. This isn't the dentist who tells you your mouth is full of cavities because he wants to drill his way into your wallet when nothing's actually wrong. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" is how Cal Auto rolls. They'll give you honest recommendations and an accurate forecast of what your vehicle has ahead of it. And if you just want an oil change and nothing more -- they listen, and that's exactly what you get, with the proper care your car still deserves. And if you're still not sold -- Cal Auto uses only the best OEM parts for your vehicle. They will never, ever bolt on some knockoff third-party Amazon part or rig your car up like Frankenstein's monster just to get it sparking and running. This review is based on 15 visits over four years. I always felt assured that my vehicle and my wife's were in the best hands -- from routine oil changes to actual car emergencies. They never wasted my time, and never wasted theirs. Every question gets a real, thorough answer. I drive 45 minutes from Los Angeles -- a city where mechanics are a dime a dozen -- just to go to Cal Auto. And honestly, anyone in Southern California -- San Diego, Orange County, LA, even up to Santa Barbara -- should be making that drive too. That's the price of admission if you want the holy grail of auto shops. A true diamond in the rough.

I stumbled across this place while washing my truck across the street on Saturday, after inquiring…read morewith them about doing a brake job on my work truck "Ram 1500" they told me they could do it on Sunday in the morning, so here I am. After inspecting my brakes, they came to the conclusion that I needed two rear rotors and rear brakes and that my front brakes had some life left on them. I asked them to just replace them all and was quoted.$740. DEAL Not only did I think the price was fair, but I admired the professionalism and organization within the shop. It's small independent neighborhood automotive repair shops like this that I prefer to do business with. They care about their reputation and genuinely want to provide a service to their community that can be trusted,,, this is based off my first impression of them. Whenever you are looking to put new tires on your vehicle or have other service done to your vehicle, I highly recommend stopping in in consulting with Ramos Automotive before going anywhere else, I suspect you will not be disappointed in the service they provide at the affordable price.
