Jose and His Team Saved Me From Costly Repairs!…read more When my trusty 2002 Ford F150 Lariat started acting up, I was at a loss. It had been running smoothly until a few fuses blew. I thought I could handle it on my own, so we replaced them at home the next day. However, despite my best efforts, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was seriously wrong with the transmission. I could have sworn someone had tampered with it; it felt like the whole thing was about to give out. Confused and a bit panicked, I turned to my brother for advice. Without hesitation, he recommended Jose, proclaiming, "Jose is an honest man; he'll do right by you." Given my brother's track record for quality recommendations, I decided to take his word for it and got my truck towed from Hollister to Castroville. (Stay tuned for my next review on that experience!) I dropped off the truck at Jose's shop on a Monday morning at 9:15 AM, shortly after the shop opened at 8 AM. When I arrived, I was immediately struck by how busy he was. There were three cars already on lifts, a customer at his desk, and another on the phone. Despite the chaos, Jose was on top of everything; he walked out to greet us while still talking on the phone, listening closely to my account of the issues I had encountered. As I recounted the sequence of events--from the pre-fuse change symptoms to the post-fuse change rollercoaster ride that felt like my transmission was in freefall--Jose's attention never wavered. He took note of every detail. After a thorough diagnostic, Jose identified one additional faulty fuse that had escaped my notice. He promptly replaced it and cleared out the bad codes, which was part of the repair and inspection process. What impressed me most was not just his efficiency but his commitment to transparency. Jose took the time to explain ensuring that I understood what was going on with my truck. Thanks to Jose and his team, I dodged what could have been a costly repair. I left his shop feeling relieved and grateful. Jose truly lives up to my brother's recommendation; he is indeed an honest man who does right by his customers. I highly recommend his services to anyone facing car troubles--trust me, you won't regret it!

Steven and Richardo are the most honest repair shop front end managers you can meet. You might not like the answer, but it's the truth and the best they can possibly do. I have been a regular customer for three years now. Recently, I was low on oil and strapped for cash for a regularly scheduled oil change. But stupid me overfilled it. The check engine came on. After calling Steven, he said Paul, check if you overfilled it. Sure as shoot. I HAD. He said clear the check engine light by undoing the negative of the battery and go get an oil change. ZIP ZAP ZOOP. BACK TO NORMAL. Any place else would have milked you. These guys pride themselves on integrity and customer service. That is why I will never go any place else for my truck maintenance. You would be blessed to do business with Gomez Auto Care

The advice he gave was "Amazing work, good prices but they're busy so you might have to wait". Not a problem with us. I'm not complaining about quality work, let alone at a good cost. Turns out they could get us in the same day so crisis averted. My standards for a garage are sky high. My uncles, cousins and brother are mechanics. My brothers best friend I owns his own shop. I've been known to swap out a fuel pump or brakes. All that to say, I'm not some dingus that doesn't know what's going on. Mon's got us fixed up in a jiffy, they are so incredibly kind, and really went above and beyond. As long as I'm here away from my family, Mon's will be my go to. Thanks for everything! I wish I could rate you 100 stars.
