A family run business. Great customer service and competitive pricing! Complete automotive service available!

Very Honest and Reputable Business. Definitely would recommend them for the tough repairs and service price .

I was referred to this business by a friend at work that I trust. I've been looking for a good alignment shop for our three vehicles. A good wheel alignment tech seems to be a very scarce individual these days. They were busy but I was able to get an appointment the following week. The car was new to me but I'd just put new tires on and wanted to make sure things were straight. Drove much more "settled" when I got it back and without asking, they had centered (it was off) my steering wheel. Excellent job! I will be back in the future for any work we need done. It's so hard to find a good shop these days - drop your car off here with confidence. read more

Love this place and they did a great job on my repair work. A small issue easily fixed and the quality and value of service was on point.

Customer service: negative stars for lack of covid safety protocol in place, rudeness, incompetence of the front office staff and lack of professionalism. In addition, the initial quote $ amount for the service and time it would take to complete the service were all higher and longer than what I was quoted. I made an appointment for my mom's vehicle a week in advance for an oil change and I spoke with a woman who answered the phone and she verified with me what model the vehicle was prior to giving me the quote for that service. My mom and I drove across town to try out this shop based on the quote provided and yelp reviews. My mom showed up first and the woman in the front office kept telling my mom that there was no appointment made for her vehicle. My mom had a horrible experience that I would've like to share the details here but because I wasn't there until a few minutes later, I am only basing this review on my own experience. The woman in the front office was not wearing a mask per the covid safety protocol that masks are required when indoors. Anyhow, she told me that one of her staff must've not put the name on the schedule and insuated that we should be happy that they are still going to make time to work on the car. The problem occurred because one of her staff did not put the appointment on the schedule so because it was their fault we should be happy they are still going to make time to work on the vehicle and charge me more for it than what was quoted and wait a longer time for the service to be completed? We didn't receive any apologies for the mishap and the woman gave me attitude. Needless to say we didnt not feel we can trust this shop to do the work and took our business elsewhere. This isn't my first time dealing with the front office staff I had called 3 separate times last year to try to get a quote on some service on my vehicle and never received a call back. So I have given this shop many chances.. one too many. read more

Best automotive repair shop in Bakersfield! I don't know why it's never occurred to me before to write a review of Elite Automotive, but after using them numerous times over the years, always walking away w/ a positive experience, I feel like I should share w/ others how amazing they are. First off, they are the most friendly, accomedating, family-owned full service garage I've ever used. Over the years, we have received nothing but honest & affordable service from them. Recently, we took my son's (very old) car in to be checked over, since he was moving out-of-town. We wanted to have a "bumper to bumper" check-up done to try to eliminate any unforseen maintenance issues while he's away @ college. Rodney, the mechanic, did an extensive check of the entire vehicle & broke down his reommendations by cost, reason & priority. The repairs were done quickly & we felt the cost were very reasonable. This week, I found myself in need of a replacement part for my car, so I called the dealer to order it. The dealer quoted me $2,000 (for the part only, labor not included). Unfortunately, the part I needed was only sold as part of a larger unit. After my near heart-attack from hearing the quoted price, I called Elite to see if they had a more affordable solution. Long story short, Rodney was able to rebuild the broken part, so we didn't have to replace the entire unit. Our cost for the repair (including labor) was only $65 and my car is as good as new : ) ** And just a positive, side note: Candy & Erin (who usually answer the phones), are just as friendly and helpful as Rodney! If you are in need of an honest, affordable, & top quality automotive repairs I would 100% recommend Elite Automotive!!!! read more

I was in touch w/the office staff for nearly a week before taking my BMW e46 to them for what I thought to be a failing alternator. After a diagnostic, it proved that it was the alternator, and it took 3 days to complete. I was also charged an additional $90 more than the original estimate that I was given because it was "hard to work on," and "they had to charge the battery" all of which was told to them before I had my car dropped off...on a tow truck. I don't have faith in their ability to work on a European car or appreciate the extra time and extra cost it took this will be my first and last time at this shop. read more

This is the best automotive place in town. Old school customer service and quick too!

I have had my truck there several times for various things...their service is the absolute best I have had. Very thorough with diagnostics of every potential problem. Thanks again to Rodney and the staff at elite automotive, for 170 thousand plus miles my truck still feels like its brand new. read more

Probably one of the best and honest automotive shop in town. The mechanics do awesome work and always resolve the problem the first time.
