I went to this JL for a safety check. As a traveling therapist I'm constantly on the rode so I get…read moremy oil, tires and brakes checked often. A safety check typically takes about an hour or so if the shop isn't busy. This particular morning there were already several cars present so I was prepared to wait. Maybe 15-20 minutes into my wait a staff member told me my car was ready. The initial guy, who I assumed was in charge looked me dead in my face with a smile and said my car was good to go and the safety check was free. Knowing I usually pay between $100-150 for the service I thought there is no way he isn't charging me. I was referred to another service shop by one of the doctor's at my office after sharing my concerns about this particular JL. I was told my front brakes were extremely low, one of my back tires was dangerously balled and my oil was so dirty they were surprised no engine lights were on. I'm sharing this because the white guy smiling in my face and telling me my car was good to guy, knowing they didn't even look at my car could have caused a dangerous situation for someone who drives extensively for work. If you don't want to service POC then maybe not be in th business of serving the public.

He's honest about what actually needs to be done and what can wait, which is rare to find these days.

HIGHLY recommend

I was disappointed that the repair was not completed as expected, especially considering the amount charged and the length of time the vehicle was in the shop. Based on my experience, the communication, turnaround time, and final result did not meet my expectations.

Every experience has been top notch from communication on the phone to service (parts on hand), and the waiting area (and restroom) is very clean! I've always felt they gave me honest feedback and didn't try to upsell me. For example my tire pressure light was on and they told me the sensor is broken and needs replacement but the tires are correct pressure so I don't need to do anything unless I want to spend the money. Definitely recommend this place!

Best oil change!…read more Tired of dealership prices? Randy is the owner. He's actually at the shop every time I've been there. The prices are comparable but they allow you to bring your own oil and oil filter which lowers the price. Oil change synthetic = 109.95 Oil change regular = 64.95 When I bring oil = $44.78 (I think if I brought both it's $35) They make it cheaper for the locals. Great service and great deal!

My husband wanted to go to a chain tire shop but I wanted to go to a local Mom & Pop business so we ended up at Matteson's. Thank goodness they were open on this holiday Monday.

We will go there for all of our automotive needs in the future. We have found our auto shop!! Matteson's rules!

Mistakes happen. Luckily, this Jiffy Lube has great people…read more It was communicated to me what happened to the car and what they would do to fix it. They stayed true to their word. They resolved the issue at their own expense and with a sense of urgency. I got my car after a few hours, with a detailed explanation of what they fixed and the parts they replaced. In light of the very bad situation, they showed incredible professionalism and great customer service. My only regret is that I don't remember the name of the gentleman who was taking care of me and talking to the Jiffy Lube regional manager. So, based on the receipt, I would like to thank Ernesto, Felix, Lawrence, Giovanni, and Anil.

If the cabin filter is even a tiny bit dirty I like it replaced. I came back and they did nothing, wouldn't even look at it. I explained it's a medical issue and if they can at least show me how to open the compartment so I can see and they just tried to reassure me again that it's part of the service, if they said it's OK then it's fine. They don't really care that I'm telling them It's a medical condition and I need it changed if it's even a little dirty. I suggest you ask to see the filters if you come here so you can be sure cause now I have to go and change it myself

I sought Natales out on a recommendation from a friend who described them as honest and up front about estimates and repairs. I needed an extensive brake repair and they were reasonable, thorough and efficient. I was very happy with the results. Most recently I came in for a loud clunking noise which all I could think was it will likely add up to lots of $$$$ signs. Thankfully it was a quick and easy fix (tightening running board and lug nut replacement), and after a detailed discussion with the mechanic and owner about tires and suspension including a thorough description about PSI, tires and vehicle performance I went away very pleased and with a smoother ride having had the tire pressure lowered for free! They also made several recommendations for other local services i.e. tires and windshield repair. I cannot recommend Natales high enough and plan to keep bringing our vehicle to them for the duration of our stay here in beautiful and friendly Monterey!

Popped in and told the guy I needed oil which I knew I needed 2 quarts, and if he could just basically tell me the air pressure so I could do it myself etc. I usually have an air pressure gadget in my door but that also had been borrowed by my son apparently. Without saying anything and ignoring what I already said about I had checked the oil, he walked out and I opened the hood and he pulled the dipstick out as I said yeah I already have done that and then went inside and got the 2 quarts that I had already put on the counter. He poured them quickly in and then put air in three of the tires and all of this took about three minutes total. He then proceeded to charge me $25 for that! Absolutely appalling and terrible business practice and honestly just rude on top of everything. To ignore a 69-year-old woman that way and then rip her off was disgusting at best. I will never go back there and I honestly suspect he has had friends/family and locals put these reviews in because he absolutely does not deserve them. I have never been charged for air pressure over the years and I've also never had somebody ignore that I am perfectly capable of pouring the oil in myself and pushing ahead and then slamming me with a $25 bill. I'm very tired of people behave this way! Gross. There have to be more honest well-meaning gas station people in the area.
