Been here multiple times, they didn't even test drive my car when done. Ended barely making it home, and towed it to another shop to fix after spending nearly 2k at Infinite Motion. I went to HG Performance around the corner and they were awesome! They do many exotics there and have a great Honda guy there too. I'd go there instead. read more

If you own a S2000 and care about your vehicle take it here. If you own a S2000 and don't care about your vehicle let Gavin buy it so it can be in better hands. The entire crew here lives and breathes VTEC. I highly recommend this shop for all of your needs, and even if you need someone to talk to, they will be there. Please keep in mind that a face to face interaction here will go miles beyond a phone call. Stop in the shop and experience the difference with a shop that cares. read more

Rob, Barby, Gavin, and Johah are the real deal. The attention to detail on our little car was incredible. Super happy with the end result and I will be returning for future tweaks and services! Thank you all! read more

I've been going there for decades and various makes/models. They've always been completely forthcoming and honest about repairs and things that were not needed to be done. Most highly recommended! read more

Rob and the crew at Infinite Motion have worked on several of my, my family's, and my friends' cars. I can't recommend them enough. I've always gotten thorough analyses and fair pricing on repairs and service. I've had a Toyota, Nissan, Honda, and even my Ford SUV serviced there. At the earliest warning of trouble, I get my car to Infinite Motion, knowing they'll honestly determine if there is a problem, and if there is, take care of it for a fair price. read more

We love Inifinite Motion. Rob, Barby, Gavin, and Jonah are great to work with. They've been taking care of our cars for over 20 years now (and now they take care of our kids' cars). We've had accidents, repairs, and new-to-us used car purchases and they have taken care of it all for us. read more

I've been going to Infinite Motion for several vehicles I've owned since the early 1990s. Not for everything, but bigger stuff, because I know it will be done right for a fair price. Less than a dealer, more than the cheap guys. You get what you pay for. Recently my 2000 Tundra would start shaking badly and stall when slowing, coming to a stop or shifting into drive or reverse. The problem was intermittent. My first stop was a closer shop, a very trusted one. I went there because I didn't want to try and drive it far with the problems. They gave it a quick check, and thought it was a transmission problem. They don't do transmissions so I went to Aamco (because they were very close). Aamco gave it a once over (a free quick check) and thought it was the transmission, but said to know what was wrong they'd need to drop the transmission to check it. That alone would've been over $1200, even if they found nothing wrong. That's not a knock against Aamco, they do transmissions, it's pretty much all they know. I called Rob and he talked to his son Gavin, who has the same truck. Gavin thought it was an "idle" problem. Checking my truck they were sure it was the throttle body, and recommended replacing it. They swapped it out and it fixed the problem. Had some other work done also, ball joints and transmission flush. Rob even texted me to let me know the price for the transmission flush ended up being less because he initially thought it needed more transmission fluid than it actually did. Total honesty. I never would've known if he didn't tell me. If you want top quality work, at fair prices, and an honest shop, you can't do better than Infinite Motion. read more

I had a mechanic ​who cut corners and charged less but after numerous attempts at "fixing" the problem, I decided after almost 3 years of going to this shop in Escondido I could no longer trust their word or their work. After looking at many different auto shops, I contacted Rob at Infinite Motion who immediately impressed me as a straight shooter who asked the right questions about my car's potential problems. We made an appointment and after several hours he called me to explain what they determined ​needed to be fixed. After 2 days my car was ready and it no longer made a grinding sound or wobbled when I drove it. For the first time in what seemed like years I knew I had found an auto shop I could trust. If you are looking for a new auto shop or just moved to the area, I highly recommend Rob and his team at Infinite Motion. read more

A great family run shop. Gavin and his team are meticulous. My daily driver received race-level maintenance and prep-work and Gavin went above and beyond making sure everything was perfect. If you're in SoCal, this is the shop to have your S2000's and all other cars serviced at. read more

I purchased a used 2001 Honda S2000 with very low mileage. This car has been garaged most of its life. One of the first things I wanted to do after researching how to take care of a S2000 and known issues with this particular model and year was to get a S2000 expert mechanic to take a look at it. After researching on Yelp, there were many positive reviews for Infinite Motion. They seem to take care of a lot of S2000s and the head mechanic drives one himself and has over 200k miles on it. I stop by to discuss what I needed to get done and the conversation couldn't have gone better. They are very protective of their customers cars and when they get S2000 they always lock it up in their shop. I was in no rush to have the car looked at and tuned, I left my S with them for about a month which included Thanksgiving weekend. I ended up getting my oil changed, transmission fluid changed, torqued spark plugs, valve adjustments, and overall inspection and tune up. They did disclose they didn't feel the transmission fluid needed changing but I wanted to be on the safe side. I also purchased a Billman TCT to replace the OEM TCT which are known to fail. Everything was done to perfection and service level was top notch. I receive frequent updates. It always felt my car was their car and they took exceptional care of their cars. I couldn't have asked for a skilled and trustworthy mechanic and shop owner for this car. Although they are very far from me and its very inconvenient for me to have to drop off the car for this visit and future visits and then arrange a ride home and repeat again to pick the vehicle up, its all worth it. My S2000 is a very special car for me and I only trust Infinite Motion when it comes to this car. read more

Infinite Motion - Auto Repair Near Me - San Marcos, California

I've reviewed Infinite Motion in the past, but feel that it's important to do so again. These guys are amazing!!! The work is always top notch. Rob, Barb, Gavin & Jonah go above and beyond in customer service, quality work, attention to detail. I could go on and on. Also, they are all very kind and super honest. I will not go to any other repair shop as long as I live in California. If you are looking for a great repair shop, this is it. I really can't say enough good things about Infinite Motion. So thankful that my neighbor told me about them. I've been a happy customer for approximately 20 years. read more

If you have a s2k, this is the place. They will treat your car like it's theirs. Easy and fast communication.

I really should've done this review years ago. This is the place to go to for any issues with your car. I can't say enough good things about Rob and Gavin and Barbara at Infinite Motion. They do very thorough work, and will only do work that is necessary, and they will do all they can to save you money and get you back on the road. I've been going to Infinite Motion for over 15 years. They have taken care of so many people in my family. I've even had my mom go to them to fix her car and if they can make her happy then they are miracle workers! If you have any issues with your car, whether it be engine or transmission or just need an oil change or transmission fluid changed, these are the people to go to. I recently had some work done on an older Toyota that I now have, and I am so happy that I took it to them. Years ago, I had a crappy Nissan, and they were able to keep that thing going until Nissan took the car back. Rob and his family will go above and beyond! They are absolutely wonderful! read more

I had forgotten to post a review last month when I had my car serviced. However, with the holidays & life, it never happened until now. It was time to get a 60k mile service done on my car. I called the dealership & was quoted a crazy high amount, so I decided to research other places. After weeks of shopping (& procrastination), I found Infinite Motion. I saw all the positive reviews that I had to call and see for myself. I spoke with the owner, Robert, who was extremely helpful & quoted me a pretty competitive rate. Seriously, I was happy talking to him, and decided to make an appointment later that week. Make a long story short, dropped the car off, left a note asking if they can have it completed by 4pm that afternoon. I received a call later in the day to tell me it'll be ready at 3pm. Awesome! It worked out perfect because I had to get down to La Jolla for a holiday party. When I arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to arrive to a clean, classic retro (feel) front lobby. I was greeted by the sweetest woman, named Barbara. She asked me to wait as she went to the back to get Robert. As I was waiting, I noticed a signed Tony Hawk picture personally thanking Infinite Motion. That was cool! I finally met Robert, he explained what they did and told me he was charging me $100+ less than what he quoted. Awesome!! Not what I expected but it was perfect especially during the holidays. Seriously, I can go on, on & on about this family owned business. They were great! Well 1 month later today, I'm back again because I've been hearing a clucking sound coming from my car. My gut instinct told me to get it looked at immediately. When I called, I spoke to Barbara, and explained my situation. She felt I needed to bring it NOW. I wasn't expecting to bring it that day, but I did, and I'm glad I did. If I would have waited and driven my call longer, my axel would've come off. I don't know what may have happened if I had driven the car to LA the following day. I'm so glad I came and even grateful that they saw me last minute. I know this review should have ended 10 sentences ago, but seriously, I'm so happy I met Barbara, Robert, and the Infinite Motion family. I'm a customer for life and would recommend them to anyone. Happy New Year! read more

Infinite Motion - Clean lobby, cool fish tank , & signed Tony Hawk pic above the tank. Nice! - Auto Repair Near Me - San Marcos, California

If you love your car, need to have someone torque every bolt as factory spec, want to sleep well at nights, this is the place to go. Thank you Robert, Gavin, and Barbara for your service on my little Honda. read more

Infinite Motion - Auto Repair Near Me - San Marcos, California

Rob and Barbara are AMAZING! We have been working with them/Infinite Motion for 10 years and are SO grateful we found them. They are honest, fair and friendly. Rob is very responsive and sometimes troubleshoots over the phone. I will stop by when in the area and ask his opinion on car issues and he takes the time to listen and advise all while being very patient. He even helped print out a warranty so that I could bring it to Hoehn Honda and the dealer could repair the piston rings and saved me so much money. We even bought a used car from Rob for my Mom! If I could give them 10 stars I would! Look no further for your auto repair needs. read more

Been reading some of the unfair & unsubstantiated "bad reviews" directed towards Barbara, Rob, Gavin and Infinite Motion in general. Permit me to add a cogent review of our experience... My wife and I have been very satisfied clients of Infinite Motion for at least the past 25 years. My Tacoma and our previous 3 Toyotas have been perfectly maintained by Rob and Gavin without a hitch in all those years! I'm speaking of the replacement of head gaskets, brakes and the one deer mouse(!) that took up residence in our 2003 Camry. Not to put too fine a point on things, but suffice it to say that we will continue to recommend Infinite Motion to new friends and mature friends who need a change from the challenges that one faces with seeking a new mechanic for their vehicle. Look no further than Infinite Motion! read more

Bottom line: Rob the owner saved me $4,000 in unecessary (stealership quoted) repairs, and the complete inconvenience of having my car tied up in the shop for 10 days. I found him (and his staff) to be honest, forthright, and timely in their work. Even when there was a small issue with a revisit due to a missed repair, he discounted my next service accordingly. It is rare to find a shop owner that takes accountability and makes things right. Not to mention his knowledge of my car was impressive. I would ( and already have) referred Infinte Motion to family and friends. Have confidence in taking your vehicle here for repairs. read more

This is the most honest automotive repair shop. Family owned and so knowledgeable! I would recommend them anyone. Affordable prices and great work. read more

We've been taking our cars to these guys for 23 years! They are honest and never do what you can't afford. They're up front with what ' needs' to be done and what can wait till next time! Highly recommended! read more

Do you ever fantasize about what it would be like to have a mechanic who was honest, as knowledgeable as the dudes on Car Talk, and really good at customer service? Like, where you could take your car in thinking you had something horribly wrong with it and he would calm you down and sometimes inform you that it was going to cost less than half of what you thought or come up with ways for you to save money? Like, where you could pick up your car and pay and leave NOT feeling angry and sick to your stomach because you just got robbed? Well then go to Rob and let that dream come true. My husband and I now buy cars with a primary thought amongst others, "Do they work on these at Infinite Motion?" When we call or go in, they remember our names without looking at their files. And when I ask questions I am never talked down to. Seriously. I would send my Grandmother here. I HAVE sent my parents. Go and you won't be sorry. read more

I think i have finally found a mechanic for my car. After calling dozens of places, getting tons of different diagnoses with quotes of $300-700 my boyfriend suggested I call Infinite since he had a good experience 10 years when he brought his civic in and they had good Yelp reviews. Prior to coming here I was told by Honda of Escondido that my power steering pump was leaking. I called Rob while at the dealership and said he could reseal it for half of what they were charging. After doing tons of research after leaving the dealership, I took my car to Rob the next day. Even though I told him what the dealership told me, he still wanted to check out my car for himself. I'm so glad he did! He found that my pump was fine, but a seal that a hose connects to the pump was leaking. He saved me $500!!! and stayed after hours to complete my car that same day. Rob and his staff were so helpful form the first time calling to the day Ii pickup ed my car. He was very honest and his rates VERY VERY good. I will be referring anyone I know with a Honda etc here and also be taking my car her for any other services I need! read more

I brought in a car I was planning on buying. They were super friendly and worked fast! Gave me the whole break down of the car and how it has been ran. True experts and honest people. After my experience I have gone back and I think I found my new mechanic. I will never go anywhere else. It is really hard to find an honest mechanic that has amazing prices. They have never told me I need something that I don't which I get a lot of at other shops. Best mechanic I have ever met! You will be glad you brought your car here. read more

This was my first visit and I was very pleased with the results. I gave it 4 stars because it was my first time. I will definitely go back. Everything was clearly explained on what had to be done and I was shone the part that was being replaced and was even offered the part to take with me. I had family in town and they stayed late to finish the car so it was done a day early! That was impressive. Their pricing was very fair. I received multiple quotes from different places. Linda D. read more

I've had my car repaired a couple of times here. They really know their stuff and I have absolute confidence in them. This is saying a lot since it's my nature to question everything. This last time I had a number of things done and although it was a lot of money, it was less than the original estimate. The car runs better than ever, even though it's done almost 150k and I'm confident that with their continued attention it'll be good for another 100,000 miles. I can thoroughly recommend them. read more

Yeah, this shop rules. It took me a long time to find them, but I'm glad I did. They're super knowledgeable, honest, reasonable, and nice. As a woman who really doesn't care that much about cars except that they get her from Point A to Point B, it's hard to find a shop that I feel like I can trust. I feel that way about the folks at Infinite Motion. I'm glad their son's a mechanic who works for them cuz my only worry is that they retire and leave me to wander around looking for another garage. I've had a few bad encounters at local garages who try to bamboozle me cuz I'm a chick, so I'm especially grateful for Infinite Motion! read more

Rob and his family have had this place for I think 35 years or something. It is a very honest reliable professional and experienced operation. They know what they're talking about and they definitely take care of you. Be nice to them and become their friends because they will always make time to help you with whatever you need! I've had my battery replaced and a couple of oil changes and always it's been done in a timely courteous manner. I'm pretty sure they work on all makes and models. But I think they also do specialize in high performance cars. The right off the freeway in San Marcos and I definitely recommend them. read more

Great folks running this place, very trustworthy with your vehicle. Came all the way up from Chula Vista to bring in my S2000, and I am not reluctant at all to leave it there. Will definitely bring it here again when needed. read more

I have been bringing my cars here for about 14 years now! They are the best! I can't tell you how many times they have impressed me! They are reasonably priced as well. The owners are wonderful people! I refer my friends to them also. I have never heard anything negative about them either! read more

The only People to ever service and work on My 2005 Acura RSX and the only people that will!

Infinite Motion is the place to go if you're mechanically challenged. Rob and his wife Barbara as well as their son Gavin will treat you right. I took my s2000 there due to a dreaded check engine light and they managed to fix it without a hitch. Turns out, my fuel pump was missing a piece and they ordered me a new one. I liked their shop so much I took my car back there a few weeks later and got a new street clutch installed. I wont let another shop work on my car and am willing to do the 30min drive each way to take it to them. read more

Can't thank the guys enough at this place for consistently doing good work on our cars. My husband and I have taken our cars in numerous times and Rob has been very straightforward and honest about what they found each time. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for good mechanics. read more

Lost the keys to my s2000 so needed them replaced. Since Gavin (TurboViper on S2ki) was very reputable, I decided I will tow my car to him to get it made. Got the car towed from mission valley to San Marcos. A couple of days later I was told I needed imoblizer, new ecu and a lot of work to clean up the damaged wiring harness on my car due to the car being salvaged or else the new key was not programmable. I was also told I would be charged hourly until it is fixed. Half way through Gavin gave up on it and I decided to get it towed back and pay for another tow. I get the car back with all my interior apart, my alarm taken off and my steering column sitting on the floor because "he didn't want to charge me any extra hours of work". Called another guy, and he got the key made within half an hour. No issue with the car whatsoever. The wrong part was ordered because of which he couldnt do anything but he blamed it on the salvage title. He decided he will take care of me and give me a free oil change etc etc. So i went back to him, got the oil change done. Just so I am not there getting free stuff and wasting their time, I had my brother's IS300's AC refilled since it needed it. I was told there might be a leak because of which it had been empty in the first place and I should try it out and see if this will work. $120 or so to refill it and lasted 3-4 days. Took it to another shop down in Mission valley, they inspected and found out it was a $5 seal that was bad. replaced it and refilled it. 0 issues after that. Shouldn't you have had it fixed before you filled the car with freon. Is that not a safety/environment hazzard? Thank you, Gavin. I should have actually paid attention to the negative reviews that I had heard from your previous friends and customers but I decided to still use your service since I had nothing complicated. On a side note, the oil change didn't have any issues. So I will recommend you when people need a lube tech. read more

How is it possible all the negative reviews are hidden? How does that work for the consumer who depend on Yelp?

Rob *used* to have all of my trust, deservedly so. Then, a series of events turned costly and created difficulties. After assuring me of the physical status of my minivan that I was having problems with, I went back to Toyota for some unrelated warranty work and denied them thieir wish to fix those two leaks and I accused them trying to make up work to rip me off. I was assured by Infinite Motion that I did not have a coolant leak, nor a power steering leak... Well, the Toyota dealership put the Sienna up on a lift took pictures and proved to me that I had those two leaks that I was assured didn't exist. The leak marks were obvious. In addition, the minivan was taken in many times and we had discussed a major job that needed to be done but twice, the shop did not do the needed work it was in for. Senior moments? Messy paperwork? Yeah, probably. The last time, I took it in for over $800 of work and all they spent their time doing an overpriced oil change. That was over a year and a half ago and I haven't returned. In fact, I don't plan on returning based on that lost trust - Time is valuable too. Hopefully, they've fixed their problems; maybe they've lost a few customers and aren't so busy. read more

Great helpful and professional people. They also prep many race cars so also know how and why parts work like they do. Gavin was great with my suspension and couldn't believe it was the same parts after he was done... really a night and day difference. read more

I am pretty picky about where I take my cars for repairs when it comes to work that I can't do myself as I've had quite a few negative experiences with shops around San Diego. As such, I have been searching for a trustworthy mechanic for my Honda S2000 CR for sometime now, and I think may have just found the right place to go to. Customer service... need I say more? This place goes above and beyond the standard! Upon entering the shop, I was greeted by a very friendly lady (I wasn't able to get her name), and soon thereafter, was greeted by Gavin. Gavin knew of the reason I was coming in, and had everything set up prior to me getting there. Also, before he took my keys, he explained to me exactly what he was going to do, and the process in which he was going to execute the repairs. As Gavin began work on my car, he allowed me to come into the garage so that I could see first hand what was going on. He explained to me what he was doing and why he was doing it. I came in for a simple repair, but Gavin took the extra time to check everything else that may be related the part in question, and also took some preventative steps to ensure the issue wouldn't show itself again. A lot of places would not go the extra mile for you, but Gavin clearly took it upon himself to do so. The repair that I came in for was relatively simple. But the experience that I had with this shop for such a simple job makes me believe that my car will be in good hands if I ever need to come back. Needless to say, my car has not been able to repeat the issue since I've left the shop. This place gets my vote in all aspects: GREAT customer service, SUPER friendly staff, EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY of work, etc. I am happy to say that I have now found a trustworthy mechanic in San Diego for all my Honda needs. I will definitely be back here, and I will have my girlfriend's Honda serviced here from now on as well. Gavin, if you're reading this, thanks again man. I will definitely be back for any service needs in the future! read more

I used to go to the car dealer to get my car serviced but every time I leave the place it cost me arm and a leg. It's ridiculous! It never fails that they will suggest of something that needs to be repaired or parts needing to b replaced. So I had to look at other options. I googled car service and this is one of the places that came up. I was hesitated at first as I want to make sure this is a good place to go. Then I called my cousin and asked if he knows of a good place I can take my car in for service. To my surprise, he recommended this place. It was the reassurance I was looking for. I took my car there last year and have been very happy with the service. They will not try to find something wrong with your car and suggest unnecessary repairs or part replacement. These are honest people and I wish them more blessings to come. Their sign says they've been in business for 36 years and to me that's a god sign. The only thing I don't like is the long wait if you plan on waiting there even when you already have an appointment. But I still give them 5 stars as the service and honesty are more important to me than the wait. I just entertain myself by getting on the internet or play games on my phone. read more

I've been taking my cars to Infinite Motion for 13 years. My parents have been taking their cars there over 20. The fact that someone could leave a negative review about this establishment bewilders me. This place always goes above and beyond to take care of my cars. read more

I too must rave about Infinate Motion. I have lived in North County for 4 years and would never take my car to anyone else to get serviced or fixed. Rob and his family are the best mechanics I have ever had. Rob is honest, trustworthy, and takes care of you and your vehicle like you were his family. If I tell him I am going on a trip he makes sure everything is up to snuff so I won't have any problems. He goes over the problems with the actual pieces of the car so YOU understand what he fixed and why. Awesome customer service and I recommend anyone with a Honda or Toyota to go to Infiniate Motion. You just don't meet many businesses like this anymore. They ROCK! read more
