Our tow truck driver spoke highly of the place and when we got there, they were closed. Our tow truck driver called the owner/ son's cell phone number which is posted on the building. Within minutes Chepe came and opened the shop for us. Because it was a Sunday, we didn't expect our car to fixed until Monday at the earliest. They assessed our car needed a new alternator and that it should be ready in 40 or so minutes! What? Sure enough our car was done and we are on our way home! They charged us what Auto Zone charged them for the part and for their labor. We are so grateful for a place that is trustworthy, who goes out of their way to help and doesn't gouge travelers who are desperate to get to their destination. Thank you so much, Villanueva Auto Repair!

He quickly changed the tire to our donut and very nice. We called ahead to Joe's and they were so nice checking for our tire size in stock. Luckily the employee was able to plug the tire. He didn't stop there, he dunked it to make sure it wasn't leaking. Helped us put the donut back in truck after he filled it with air, and aired up all four tire. All this for $25. We highly recommend Joe's on Hobsonway in Blythe, CA.

They were kind and willing to work on my car first thing in the morning. My spark plug was impacted some how. So he fixed the spark plug. 20 miles down the road I had the same sputtering issue. I somehow made it to O'reileys in Indio. I bought a new spark plug and tools to do myself. When I went to go take the boot off of the spark plug, I realize the screw had been completely stripped. Only reason I know that it was their mechanic, is I had just done the spark plugs myself 3 months ago. Now the boot will not tighten down. Because of the mechanic carelessly and quickly "fixing" the spark plug, he stripped a main part. I will now have to replace the entire top part of the engine to have that part fixed. As I am grateful for them getting me back on the road. I really wish they would have taken their time. Very unfortunate.

Dennis Taylor really is as good as it gets. An honest mechanic is hard to come by but Taylor…read moreAutomotive is undoubtedly honest. I've had a weird electrical problem with my car for over 6 months now. It simply wouldn't turn over. I took it to Pep Boys and they couldn't find anything wrong. I took it to the Honda dealership where I purchased the car, the mechanics there couldn't find anything wrong. It got to the point that I had to use a $170 jumpbox every time I had to start my car. Several hundred dollars later I finally thought to take it back to Dennis and get his opinion. Within 3 minutes Dennis Taylor found the the problem -- dirty terminal -- even though the terminals looked spotless. 5 minutes scrubbing it clean and getting everything screwed back together and I was off, good as new. He charged me nothing even though he easily could have. He said it just makes him happy to see someone "finally win one." He was just happy to see a persistent problem finally get resolved for someone. This is rare service from a mechanic. I couldn't recommend Dennis Taylor Automotive more.

Dropped off the trailer and he called 2 hours later with a quote. We were 2 hours from home, we paid a $100.00 deposit for parts and he said he would call the next day when it was ready. We told him we would pick it the next weekend. He never called when it should had been ready, had to call him 4 days later, still not done! The excuse was wrong brake parts. Told him to put it back together, since we had an appointment with our boat shop the following Monday. He said, " I'll have it done tonight", whatever. Paid a co-worker $100 to go pick it up since I had to work that weekend. They arrived at 12:00 and it still wasn't done. Finally, they paid him $300 and left. They got 25 minutes outside of town and the tire blew out because the didn't put the cotter pin in place! Destroyed my tire, new bearings, races and seals. my co-worker got it home, going 25mph on I-10. Now the spindle is destroyed and it needs a whole axle. When confronting the "owner", he agreed to send us back the $300.00, that was Oct 7th, it's now Nov 4th. Doesn't answer the phone, return calls or text messages. My suggestion is this. If you need anything, don't go to this place. Call a tow truck and get home. Have a real shop repair your trailer!

It's a gorgeous building that doesn't even look like an automotive repair shop and is nestled in the beautiful "country" part of Murrieta. Del runs the front office and is amazing.
