I worked with…read moreJames from start to finish and he was extremely courteous and helpful as we worked through the rebuild as well as other repairs including the clutch and power steering lines. He quoted the repairs accurately and stayed on track with the promised timeline. I've returned a couple times to double check some noises but they turned out to be unrelated to the engine rebuild (it was loose exhaust lines) and James did not charge me anything for the two inspections. I am glad that I was referred to James at Auto Guys and I would highly recommend them.

I originally took my prius to a nearby automotive group, where I was told I needed brake fluid, coolant fluid, and transmission fluid services that would have cost me nearly $1,000 in other words an arm and a leg. Said my brake fluid is dirty and my coolant fluid needs flushing. Before moving forward, I decided to get a second opinion from other automotive groups one of which was SoCal Auto. Chris at SoCal Auto inspected my vehicle, tested my brake fluid and inspected my coolant fluid and found that they were close to brand new and didn't need changing. Instead of trying to sell me unnecessary work, he was upfront, honest, and saved me a whole band in minutes. He knows his stuff, and was super cool about it It's hard to find an experienced mechanic you can trust, especially in such short notice. SoCal Auto has definitely earned my business. If you're looking for an honest shop that won't take advantage of you on repairs you don't need, I highly recommend Chris and his team.

After a lot of Yelp research, I found Escondido Auto Tech. I brought my vehicles for a smog and got great service each time. Found them easy to work with too. Next, I brought in my car for maintenance and a list of repairs and items to check on. Let me not bore with the mundane details, just know: -they took good care of the car, addressing every item on my list. -Frank, the service manager, took the time to discuss the list of repairs with me and explained what they would do-to make sure we were on the same page with everything. He listens! In fact, when he received the list (which I'd emailed ahead of time) he immediately spotted a safety issue and reached out to me to get it addressed promptly. -they finished the work AHEAD of the promised completion time -took the trouble to score parts at a lower price than quoted (and passed on the savings!) -provided a detailed completed work order with information I about my vehicle that I found valuable. Like I said, call me a fan!

My wife discovered them five years ago and goes only to this place with all her automotive needs. She likes the quality job that they always provide, trust them more than her husband, and appreciates not being treated as a blond female. So when my truck began overheating after only a two miles drive, and a dealer suggested to check it for a problem within next two-three weeks, I decided to go them too. They detected that the radiator was cracked, sent me a picture in couple hours, and fixed it next days. They also suggested to repair worn off front brakes which I happily agreed. Best place in town, in other words.

But since I've been coming here I don't even bother because I know they will give me a fair price and get my car back to me ASAP. Extremely trustworthy and realiable. When I've called and asked a million questions, some I've repeated, they don't seem bothered at all and throughly explain what needs work and what doesn't. No pushy sales. I've referred anyone looking for a mechanic and everyone always says they are the best in the area that they've been to.
