I brought my son's mercedez benz several times already for different problems. Henry is very helpful and charges fair and reasonable. This is the place for old cars. read more

Shifter cable repair was placed June 10,2026..Henry keeps promising to complete the repair every Friday each week.its July 25.2026 ..and repair has not been completed at this time..now I need to tow my car to another repair shop..Terrible experience!! read more

Henry is the most honest mechanic i have ever run into. Not only does he know his stuff when it comes to any vehicle, he is also fair with his pricing. He goes over and beyond what hes supposed to do. My friend brought his car in to get the transmission fixed and henry changed his oil and fixed his bumper without even being asked to do so. He really cares about his customers. I tell all my people to go to him. For sure i will never go to any other mechanic as long as henry is around. He is truly a rare find. read more

Great service. Honest and reliable. Very time efficient and resourceful. I would definitely recommend.

I was recommended five star from my family and took my car in for a strange noise and suspension work. They did a great job and were able to identify the issue and fix it quickly. They were also very communicative and made sure I understood all the problems and the remedies. They even showed me the parts and damage when I picked up my vehicle and recommended some future services to look into. I am SUPER pleased with their work. Very transparent and honest shop with great prices. I will definitely be back in the future. read more

Henry is a great and honest mechanic. He won't change the price on you and won't look for other things that need repair

I was on an over night business trip about an hour and a half from home. Realized last night that I needed power steering fluid before I drove home this morning. AAA wouldn't help me. I called Five Star Auto Repair and talked to Henry. He said that he would help. I was 5 minutes away. He was in the driveway waiting for me. Added the fluid and even put air in a tire. Highly recommend Henry and Five Star. read more

Henry although busy finds time somehow to take time out of his day to talk about my car issues and comes up with an accurate time frame to repair. He has fixed issues with two cars and is honest about his repairs. He answers his phone and follows up in a timely manner. I recommend him if you are looking for a reliable and knowledgeable mechanic in the Redlands area. read more

Joe appreciate your services on my vehicles you and your mechanics are top notch and professional work on my wife's truck was done in a timely manner Thanks to Gus also for expertise in repairing this vehicle Good to see Lee also there today Thanks again a loyal customer read more

Honest and reliable mechanic, saved me a lot of money, by letting me know part had a recall to take to dealer instead. Great integrity. Totally recommend. read more

Helpful, honest, and friendly! My review needs at least 85 characters, so I've added a few more thoughts to post review.

If you are in the Colton, Loma Linda, San Bernardino area, you won't find a better auto mechanic than Henry Widjaja, the owner of Five Star Auto Repair in Loma Linda. My wife and I have been using Henry's services for the last decade and he's always been honest, willing to fit us into his schedule even when he's slammed with other cars to work on, and very competent. Last night my driver-side front window refused to work, so I popped in to see Henry at 6 p.m. Despite the fact that he was scheduled to close in just 45 minutes, Henry got on the phone, found the part, sent one of his employees to pick it up and had me on my way with the window working fine by 7 p.m. You can't get that kind of service and expertise anywhere else. Henry's the man! Five Star Auto Repair rates a full FIVE STARS in my book! You rock, Henry!!! read more

Henry helped me out to decide on the purchase of a used vehicle. I came into the shop for expertise and he pointed out things that were wrong with the vehicle so that I could do the purchase. I recommend this shop, Henry was friendly and knowledgeable about the vehicle and also pointed out everything that was good and bad about the vehicle. He ran a full inspection of the car and diagnosed it. read more

got my car done in just a few hours. very kind owner/staff and worked with me on pricing/parts. thank you guys so much!

I've been going to Henry for over a decade now. He is undeniably honest, reliable, and trustworthy. Brought my car in for a "strange noise" and he took the time to check every possibility instead of suggesting random fixes that dont work. Found the source fixed it quickly at a fair price and was also able to get the oil change and smog I needed. read more

In all the years I've been coming here I've been getting quality service and reasonable prices. The owner has also gone the extra mile at times. Once I happened to be using a friend's car and accidentally got scraped on the right bumper side of the car at an intersection and just felt a nudge. It all happened so fast and both cars kept driving. I was hoping it wasn't hard enough to scrape it. But when I got to my destination and saw the damage, my heart sank. When I went to Autozone recently, they said only mechanics have buffers to clean out the scraped paint. I went straight to Five Star Auto Repair to ask Henry, the owner, if he had some. He promptly got his buffer and personally wiped off the scraped paint from the other car right then and there. It would've cost more if I left it there to be fully fixed due to labor cost, so he told me I could just buy paint for $7 or $8 somewhere else to fix the small scrapes the buffer couldn't fix. I offered to pay for what he did but he didn't take it. I'm so glad my friends told me about this place! read more

We came from our trip to Joshua Tree Park and noticed some rattling noise near one of the tires. It was the day after Thanksgiving and we called several car repair shops in the area. Henry was the first to answer the phone and we could come over to his shop. Honestly, the place is a bit of a mess, but Henry was very friendly and helpful and immediately started checking our car. In no time he found the cause. He had to order the part, but it arrived within half an hour. The work was completed in about an hour and costed less than $ 100. The issue was fixed perfectly and we had a smooth ride back to the Bay Area. Thank you Henry! read more

Henry the owner was a straight shooter for me. Very honest and upfront. I have brought my cars for battery exchange and brake work and AC Servicing. He is always honest and affordable. Highly recommend read more

This place is amazing. So quick, affordable and friendly. I wouldn't go anywhere else in the county for car work.

No stars if I could. Ripped my son in law off. Put in old parts 8 months later it was broke down was toad to another shop that shop showed the bad parts and advised him to take it back to who ever did the work. They made my son pay 1100$ for their mistakes. read more

Henry is a great mechanic , very honest and fair . My husband and I have had work done on both of our vehicles . They have been running great , haven't had any issues with any of his work over the years read more

Very poor service , I came to replace the left light rear, bumper and wing. He didn't replace any one of them correctly. price was 250$. read more

This auto repair shop has been our go to shop for years. Henry is honest and has managed many vehicles for us. His shop is conveniently located on Redlands Boulevard just west of Tippecanoe. He will answer all your questions and not try to sell more services that are unnecessary. These days it is really great when you can rely on an ethical mechanic. Henry prefers cash but he accepts credit cards from us as well. His labor rates are lower than other repair shops we have had in the past. read more

Five Star Auto Repair - Auto repair/collision -replacement of driver's mirror and rear view mirror and odometer-speedometer device. - Auto Repair Near Me - Loma Linda, California

I would give zero stars to Henry, the owner of the repair shop, if I could. Henry is unreliable and false. He told me my motor needed rebuilt. He said he could do the job--But he couldn't. He got the engine apart, in pieces, on his work bench. But then he never fixed it. He had the car for over a year, and simply did not work on it. He would tell me he was working on it--but that was blatantly untrue: I would go to the shop, only to find that he was not working on it. He repeatedly told me dates it would be done--but he did not even try to work on it after making those "promises" (his word) to me. I got the California Bureau of Auto repair involved, but even though they spoke with Henry twice, he still would not do the job. I finally had to have it towed away, the engine in pieces. If you need a motor rebuild, I urge you to NOT take it to Henry at Five Star Auto Repair. read more

First My Mercedes GL450 had problem with the vaccum intake manifold, Henry give me Quote $650. HE told me just 2 days working. After 2 weeks he Said the car had problem with timming chain. HE gave me the quote $2.500. He didn't know how to install back the timming engine. And after 2 month hE told me need to replace the whole engine. And give quote $3.800. After 3 month the car done and still have problem with the air suspension pump leaking. Don't go to this shop unless you ready been robbed. Henry is not profesional and fucking liar!!!!! read more

We had car trouble with our Honda Pilot while traveling through the area right around closing time on Dec 23. Stopped in at Honda dealership - no help. Called a few other close by auto mechanics and the ONLY one to answer was Five Star. They kindly squeezed us in, quickly diagnosed the problem, gave us honest advice as if it was their vehicle (turned out it was just a sensor issue) and patiently explained how to deal with it for our travels. No fees charged! Give these folks a try! read more

Henry fixed up my car multiple times and also my dad's car, i went somewhere else to get inspection for my car and charged me about $700+. so i came here and listed down everything what was inspected and they only charged me about $380. He also fixed my car door, which stopped detecting my locks. it was slow but i only waited for 2 hrs. and he even did some body work of my dad's car, that was messed up on both doors, 1 is in the passanger seat and 1 on the backseat right door. a family friend who was willing to do it for $2,000, but Henry was willing to fix it for $900.. he did it flawlessly with the matter of less than 2 weeks. he's been my go-to mechanic ever since. read more

My sister's been through him with Henry for years and she passed away . I just moved down to San Bernardino, my car broke down on the freeway so today, Henry was able to take my car right away and I'm grateful for that. Henry was able to find out what was wrong with my car and fix it, at a good price. I have went to 3 other places before Henry who overcharged me and then they will fix the problem. so I am grateful for Henry and Five Star Auto for fixing my car. read more

This guy is unprofessional was being very rude in my kids. I would not recommend going to this shop. This guy needs to do some skiing

Henry was definitely a five-star mechanic. I had to take my tundra for a recall airbag at the dealer and they told me that one of the issues I had was that my battery was almost dead and that I would need a new battery. I then went to five star auto repair to get a second opinion. Henry looked at my car and after charging my battery he realize the battery is fine and it was the alternator that was going out. Which in turn and save me a lot of money if I would've gone and gotten it fixed at the dealer!! Definitely recommend this Shop. Henry's honest Hard-working mechanic. read more

I had my 2000 Camry towed here to have the alternator replaced. This shop was recommended by the AAA tow guy. Dropped off my vehicle at around 830am. The guys gave me a quick quote with a couple of part options and his recommendation. I took an uber home but should have waited because they called me about an or so later saying it was done. Car runs great and their work appears clean. I am bringing my 86 Toyota here next week for some more work! read more

These guys are awesome! Henry totally saved me today. After swapping out my battery, my truck was was acting crazy and kept stalling whenever I would take my foot off the gas. I called Henry after business hours and he had me drive (very carefully) over to the shop for him to take a look. He proceeded to check the engine codes and found the source of the problem. After clearing the codes my truck was back to normal. Best of all, Henry didn't charge me a dime for his help. Quality people can be hard to come by in the auto repair industry and they are quality people at Five Star Auto Repair. Take your business there if you need a repair. Thanks again Henry! read more

I took my company vintage Bronco to these clowns to decipher blink codes since they claimed they could. My low mileage vintage Bronco ran fine and drove great but every time I drove it recently, the check engine light would come on. We couldn't figure it out so we dropped it off here to have them read the blink code/s. They said it was a general misfire code and that they needed to remove the intake manifold to diagnose further and would charge $99.00 to tell me why the check engine light was coming on. After their looked truck over they came up with a laundry list of items they said needed possibly addressing. General tune up, fuel filter and misc basic items. I respectfully declined, reminding the guy we only wanted the codes deciphered, as I own a heavy equipment rental company and we perform our own maintenance and most repairs in our in house auto shop. I went to pickup truck and red-flag #1, they amount they wished to charge was now $150.00 of which I protested was incorrect. After the guy made a call, he reluctantly reduced to $100.00. Red-flag#2 guy tells me his credit card machine is down so I offer to have a company check run down to him "I don't accept checks ever" was his terse reply. I asked him what he suggested then for payment? "go to an ATM and bring me cash!" I declined this offer as I do not pay cash for company expenses. He grudgingly took the credit card saying he would try to run it through..guess what..it magically worked. Red-flag #3, the guy rudely gives me my keys and says "good luck to you" I wish him good luck right back. I go to start my Bronco and it barely catches and stumbles badly. Has a huge miss like its running on 3 of 8 cylinders and a cloud of smoke is pouring out of the exhaust. I couldn't believe my eyes and was shaking I was so upset. Upon inspection, gasoline was pouring out the tailpipe as well. I went inside to complain and the guy was indignant saying that it was like that when I brought it in, even though the paperwork clearly says the opposite. These guys are crooks and shysters and by far the worst repair shop I have ever even heard of so stay away unless you want to get ripped off. I will be filing a complaint with Bureau of Automotive Repairs and suing them for any required repairs that are found by the local Ford Dealership. read more

Henry is such a nice and down to earth guy. He looked at my car right when I brought it in and had it fixed by the next day. He's great at finding the problem quickly and fixing it fast. And his prices are extremely reasonable! The Car Doctors quoted me $1300 for new motor mounts and to repair oil leaks; Henry did it for $330!! He explained everything that he was doing clearly and didn't try to rip me off. For fast, honest work go to Henry! He will be my go-to mechanic from now on! He even personally gave me a ride back to my place that was not too far from the shop (I was willing to walk back) and picked me up when my car was ready since I lacked transportation. He really looks out for his clients and is a genuinely nice person. read more

Unfortunately I have to even give one star because five star auto and Henry deserve zero stars. I took my car to him after a recommendation of a friend. I had to tow my car there 40 miles. After spending a day and a half at his shop I finally had to call him and ask him what was wrong with the car. He said it's a computer issue and will cost $1500. We told him financially we cannot afford that. He said you need to pay $100 to get the car since I looked at it. Reluctantly I paid him the $100 and had to towed to another mechanic someone referred me to. The next mechanic said it was a loose wire and charged me $150. He also said Henry never even looked at the car. He basically stole $100 from me. I will say I am the kind of person that does not waste my time writing reviews and I don't like writing bad reviews because I know it hurts a business. But in this case this business deserves the review because I don't want them doing this to someone else. They should have their doors closed. DO NOT GO THERE!!!!! read more

My daughters car broke down in the area, we live about 100 miles away, and we had it towed to Henry based on a Yelp review. I had to call him after 3 days and he said he would fix it, but it would take 1 week for the repairs. That was 1/13/18, on 2/25/18 we finally got the car back, and it promptly broke down on the way home. Henry's response....bring it back and I'll take a look at it again! Not. read more

My car was overheating and I was very far from home. I looked on yelp and found this place had good reviews. I took a chance to take my car there and they were extremely helpful and made roo. In their schedule and even though the local parts houses did not have the parts they were able to fix my car and were extremely fair with the price. Highly recommended to use these guys read more

My transmission gave out and I brought it to Five Star Auto. Henry runs the shop. He said gave me a fair price and said it would be done in a week which is also fair. Unfortunately, it took him over 3 weeks to complete the job and it came in over estimate as well. He was apologetic however, I believe that blowing both the schedule and budget is a big deal. The transmission does drive like normal again and he gave a solid warranty on the work. If he can iron out a few things he'd be an easy 4 or 5 star. read more

TERRIBLE! Henry (owner) lied about calling me for an estimate. After a week, never did. I went to pick up my car (BMW) and found it had been WRECKED . Damage on right front fender and bumper. Henry denied responsibility and refused to help. Driver's door inside was filthy. Henry denied they moved car, yet I found my car on the street and later he admitted they only moved it to the street. Henry was trying to delay me coming to get my car and made up car wasn't ready alleging he was doing electrical work to diagnose my transmission failure. Promised to get it back together in a few hours. Yet in 30 mins it was done. Big dent approx 1 ft long and deep scrapes, he calls a scratch. Full of lies and deception. No other shop mgrs in the strip mall trusts him. He constantly delays work and now damaged my vehicle and refuses to fix. I filed police report & Henry Widjaja will be sued in small claims by me. read more
