    3 months later and still a perfect door alignment repair! Ford Bronco came in with a poorly…read morealigned driver door that let in wind noise in driving along the freeway. It's fully fixed! It's a local / family business and you'll be served kindly. Small note they may not accept car drop off due to vehicle space. We drove from Walnut Creek and had to go back home and drop it off the following day so keep that in mind if you're coming across the Bay Area. I would come back again.

    I had my driver side door replaced a few years back by this shop after getting t-boned. So when I…read morefound a replacement door (and hood, which only requires 4 screws to replace since the hinges stay intact) which matched my car's color, I excitedly called them back to see if they could do a swap for me again. I ended up having to call 3 times until I was able to speak with the owner Vahe (sp? ; I'm not sure if he's related to Raj, the previous owner apparently) who refused to give me an estimate over the phone and said he had to 'plug it into my estimate software.' After some additional quibbling, he finally told me that it would probably cost around $600-700 dollars. This amount of money for a simple door and hood swap is ridiculous! It's something I could do on my own time but I just don't live in a place that allows for mechanic work (apartment complex) or access to all the tools. I recall Raj was way nicer and professional about it rather than trying to sound like a used car salesman and sleaze their way into bringing my car to the shop (I would have to ask a friend to bring the spare parts to be swapped since they don't fit in my car, at which point would be difficult to decline the job). Really, really disappointed and I don't think I can recommend this place again. *Update* Very interesting that the owner chose to respond so quickly upon my updated review. Their claim was factually false, as reasons to bring in my car were never discussed over the phone and he repeatedly just stated that he would be plugging in and quoting me whatever his estimate software produced. In fact, they have a button where you can request an estimate right on their Yelp page which makes it even more unbelievable. Would re-iterate to avoid this place like the plague since the new owners obviously did not carryover the honest work from the previous ones.

    Love these Guys and their " Old Fashioned INTEGRITY " !!!…read more My Accord Battery is only 14 - 18 months old. However it died unexpectedly @ a ' ' Refueling Stop ' in Berkeley @ the GAS STATION on Shattuck @ Ashby. Luckily they have a Mechanic Shop in there, and the fellow in there obliged me with a " Jump Start ". Mysterious why it had died suddenly then was ' back up ' Performing Beautifully !!!! Despite which I needed a Battery & Alternator Check to Satisfy Myself Fully that All is Well. Called Mr. Hamza @ Yen's Auto to explain the situation. He suggested I bring it in ASAP for a " Charging System Check " - which I did the same day about 4 weeks ago. Him and his Assistant Mr. AFSAND , who I'd dealt with previously , had me pop the hood to connect their Meter Etc giving my Charging System ' A CLEAN BILL Of Health. Nice to have " Honest Mechanics in the Vicinity " !!!!!!

    1 star only...because 0 isn't an option…read more I booked an 11:00 a.m. appointment for an oil change in advance. I wasn't a walk-in. When I dropped off my car, I was told it would be ready around 12:30-1:00 p.m. and that I'd receive a call when it was done. I decided to stick around the area. At 1:00 p.m., after waiting two hours, I walked back to check on the status and found that they hadn't even started working on my car. When I told them I was leaving, the employee suddenly asked if I could wait another 10-15 minutes because he could "start it now". So frustrating. My scheduled appointment meant absolutely nothing until I complained and I was not interested in a rushed oil change... If your business can't honor appointment times, don't offer appointments. Respect your customers' time. I would not recommend taking your business here. I certainly won't be back.

Asim is a total pro, super friendly, knowledgeable. Will definitely be coming to Just Brakes for any future work needed on brakes!

He completed the job in about 2 hours as promised when dropping off the vehicle. Once my vehicle was on the lift, Asim took the time to show me exactly what needed to be replaced instead of just telling me. He explained everything clearly and gave me options, including using either aftermarket or OEM parts, without any pressure. Throughout the process, Asim kept me informed, including letting me know about a brief delay while waiting for parts to arrive. I appreciated the communication, and there were no surprises. His pricing was very reasonable, and the quality of the work was excellent. The shop has two lifts, so be sure to arrive on time for your scheduled appointment. That helps him get your vehicle inspected and into the shop without delays. If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. I'll definitely be recommending him to all of my family and friends, and I'll be returning for any future brake work.

Even though tires are in the name, they've always been incredibly helpful beyond that. From Greg (the owner) to Will, who replaced my light and aired up my tires 30 minutes before closing, the service was warm, hospitable, and genuinely kind. It honestly felt like family. Oil change already booked...I'll definitely be back!

    I had a very disappointing experience at Tire Choice…read more First, the appointment system feels misleading. I scheduled a time in advance and showed up as expected, but was still left waiting while walk-in customers who arrived before me were taken ahead of me. It really makes you question the point of setting an appointment if it doesn't actually secure your place in line. What made the experience worse was how I was treated after ordering my tires through Amazon. It felt very clear that customers paying the higher in-store installation price were given priority, while those of us who booked through Amazon were treated like we mattered less. That kind of treatment is frustrating and unprofessional. On top of that, the manager's behavior came across as disrespectful and discriminatory, which made the entire experience even more uncomfortable. No customer should feel that way when they're simply trying to get a service they scheduled in advance. Overall, between the lack of clarity around appointments, the apparent prioritization of certain customers, and the way I was treated, I would not recommend this location.
