    50psi max

    Put on some new tires after having to stop due to a flat. Paid for them along with the untold mount and balancing prices. I didn't pay for the $20/tire warranty the owner wanted me to get. My wife told me that the warning light regarding tires came on driving it home. We looked at the warning signal and it said that the tires were overinflated. Not accusing anyone of anything. Maybe their machine readings are off. Who knows? Maximum air pressure is 50psi for the tires and 42psi recommended by the manufacturer. This is what I saw regarding them. I was shocked! Lucky I didn't have a blowout! Check the pressure of your tires.

    John was awesome! Service was great. They treat you like family. I will definitely be coming back here. Its the best tire shop ive ever been to in awhile. They did a tire patch. And it was quickkk!

    I went to golden west tire center for a flat for my spare I was charged 60 for a used tire I left the tire shop and as I was driving home my car was stuck luckily my differential didnt break but my caliper and rotor broke I towed my car home and from a simple tire change I now have payed over 300 dollars in fixing my rotor and caliper thank god I took a picture of the car while it was up on the jack because I looked back and saw how they left that tire I contacted golden west and they say they are no responsible for this and don't take the blame I could've died I'm in shock they are not taking action

    My minivans tire sensor went off I knew I needed to head to a tire shop as I had to have it patched just a few weeks before from a nail. I drove to Americas Tire across the street at first, but it was going to take 20 mins for me to even talk to anyone because they were slammed. I looked across the street and called and John said come right over. He took me immediately, they actually take the tire off the rim to repair them, unlike others that just plug it. They do other services in addition to tires. Ac, brakes, alignment, oil changes, any issues come here. This isn't a faceless mega corp, this is a small family owned business, the kind where they get to know you, and your car and take good care of you. Can't say how much I appreciated this shop! Thank you John and team!!!

    John is the man! He can get you anything you want. Great and accurate service here. They do it all from factory maintenance to lowering your ride.

    This is a good shop. Good honest work. John and the guys here took care of me. Highly recommend.

    I have a 4Runner with an extra wide wheel base. Not many shops can accommodate it. John and his guys did great work on replacing both driver's side axles and getting the alignment perfect. Super reasonable prices and they're good guys, doing great work. I'll be back for sure!

    New rims, tires, alignment & tune up!!

    See all

They took the time to explain the repair, confirmed the diagnostic code, and even pointed out a few things I should do to help my Prius last longer. They noticed my hybrid battery cooling fan was missing after I told them I just had it "replaced" at another shop. That's the kind of information you don't usually get from a repair shop. They ended up not needing to drop the subframe, so they adjusted the labor instead of charging me for work they didn't have to do. It still took the amount of time they said it was going to take, but still discounted me a little bit which I thought was cool. I also had them do an oil change while it was there, and even that was less expensive than what I normally pay at places like Jiffy Lube or Valvoline. If you own a Prius or any hybrid, I'd definitely recommend checking them out. More than anything, I left feeling like they genuinely know these cars and took the time to educate me, not just fix it. I'll definitely be bringing my Prius back if I ever need anything else.

    Jesse is the reason my cat is alive…read more Last weekend, during the Garden Grove toxic chemical evacuation, my tuxedo cat decided that the undercarriage of my cousin's Tesla Model Y was a great hiding spot. It was not. He was wedged in there for 12 hours with no food, no water, and zero litter box access. He was absolutely losing it. I ran through every option. Fire department? Busy with the actual chemical explosion rattling all of OC, fair. Animal control? Ghosted me. My cousin, currently out of the country, tried Tesla Roadside Assistance through the app. Tesla's answer: their technicians are not trained to rescue animals. Noted, but deeply unhelpful in the moment. Two other mechanics passed too. Jesse was my third Yelp attempt and my last real option. He showed up within two hours, no fuss, and got straight to work. He tried everything - the frunk, underneath, removing the right wheel - methodically working different angles for an hour and a half because my cat had chosen the most inconvenient possible position to be chonky in. Jesse stayed patient the entire time and got him out safely. My cat is home. He is fine. He is completely unbothered, as cats are. Jesse showed up when nobody else could. That is not something I will forget. Oh, and his prices are insanely reasonable. If you need a mechanic who will actually show up and problem-solve, Jesse is your guy.

My experience was called to book on Monday morning, quoted the price based on easy to describe work and an appointment for Wednesday at 8AM. So I adjust my schedule and am ready. No show, no answer calls or texts until a call at 930 - where he apologizes for issues on Tuesday and will show up at 5PM. Fine. I'll adjust my evening plans too. An organized person would have adjusted plans and communicated Wednesday if they had issues/delays Tuesday. Then, at 2PM calls back and says looking more like 530PM. And then he says... oh? Did I give you a price already? Oh that's actually a lot of work and says it'll actually cost 60% more. That was enough to call it quits. While I can't speak to his mechanic abilities, he fell short on: 1) being able to accurately understand and estimate work before quoting, or worse, stick to his quote when he gets busy 2) ability to plan his schedule and communicate reasonably. I hope he learns from this and other experiences and reaches his potential through better consistency.

Unfortunately, it looks like I missed the hay day of this service. I attempted to book a spot online. When I never received a confirmation I called the shop on Tuesdaty. I was told they were short staffed, but the guy on the phone confirmed me for 10am on Sunday. I asked him to make sure there would be a lift available since I was coming a distance. He said there was plenty of room. Fast forward to Sunday. I show up at 10:00 and no one is there. The place looks like it went out of business by the looks of the grounds. Weeds growing out of the pavement, random trash and debris all over the place. However, I decided to give him a chance and wait to see if maybe he's a few minutes late. When he doesn't appear by 10:30 I call, no answer. I call again at 10:45, once again no answer. At 11:15 I give up and head home. At 12:15 he finally calls back because he just got to the garage and tells me I can come back. I let him know I'm already on my way home and to far to come back. This is a classic example of a great idea run by someone who is to lazy to actually run a business.

I chose them because they are well rated, specialize in BMW and are close by. I dropped off my car for an inspection and shared with Noel what occurred at the dealer.

Discussed all with Noel and based on our situation (keep or sell?) he helped us make our choice. Appreciate their transparency and advice. They are professional and straight forward.

Finding Ronin Autowerks was the exact opposite experience. Noel Carbajal has been my service advisor twice now, and his transparency is incredible. He takes the time to walk through every recommendation, clearly distinguishing between immediate repair versus those that are safe to hold off within a certain time frame. No pressure, no hidden agendas--just straightforward, professional advice! Just recently, I went to the dealership because I have the 3-year pre-paid plan. However, they refused to help with an "oil top-off" warning and tried to charge me a $319 diagnostic fee for a potential leak. I drove straight to Ronin Autowerks and even without an appointment, Noel took care of it immediately. Ronin Autowerks is a small shop. Don't expect a lounge with selection of free beverages and spread of snacks while you wait for your car, but here is the bottom line: I would rather have a straightforward, honest advisor like Noel who saves me hundreds of dollars over some fancy amenities. If you want a shop that prioritizes your car and your wallet - this is the place!

    I would NEVER recommend this shop…read more I brought my 2013 Honda Civic in because it was kicking back/hesitating while accelerating, even struggling to get onto the freeway. I paid a diagnostic fee because I wanted the problem diagnosed and repaired--not routine maintenance. The shop recommended a fuel system/injector cleaning and transmission fluid service, telling me that was the cause of my issue. I trusted their diagnosis and paid. The very next morning, my Check Emission System light came on. I returned, and they told me it was unrelated to the previous work, diagnosed a thermostat issue (P0128), and I paid for that repair too. After picking up my car the second time, the exact same acceleration problem was still happening, and while driving, the Check Emission System, Check VSA System, and Check Power Steering System warnings all came on. So after spending about $1,000 and making multiple trips back to the shop, the original problem I brought it in for still wasn't fixed. When I spoke with the manager, instead of trying to understand why I was frustrated, he became defensive, argumentative, and dismissive. He repeatedly said, "I don't understand why you're mad," asked, "Well, you said the issue was fixed, right?" (I NEVER said that), and when I explained I'd had to take multiple days off work and arrange transportation because I kept having to come back, he told me, "Having to take 3 days off is part of life. That happens when you have an older car that has issues." He also refused a refund, saying "We're not doing any work for free," and expected me to trust them with my car for a third time after they had already failed twice. Why would I pay them again when they couldn't fix the problem the first two times? I lost all confidence in the shop and took my car to an independent mechanic in Diamond Bar. He drove my car and noticed the drivability issue almost immediately. After spending several hours diagnosing and test-driving it, he found the actual problem: a faulty MAP sensor. He replaced it, and the hesitation is completely gone. He also told me the fuel system cleaning and transmission fluid service performed by Cook's were maintenance items and were not related to the problem I originally brought the car in for. I understand that diagnosing intermittent issues isn't always easy, but what I can't accept is paying around $1,000, making three trips back, being treated disrespectfully by the manager, and then having another mechanic correctly diagnose and fix the problem in a matter of hours. Save yourself the time, money, and frustration. I will never return or recommend this shop.
