I only started using 916 Auto Repair recently, but Samson and his team have already helped me with…read moreseveral vehicles and I've had a really good experience every time. If you need an honest, knowledgeable, and fairly priced auto repair shop near Gold River or Rancho Cordova, I'd definitely recommend them. They've worked on my 2017 Ford Transit Connect, 2014 Mercedes GL63, and 2014 BMW X5. They replaced a driver-side CV axle, did oil changes, replaced brake pads and rotors, diagnosed and fixed an A/C and heater blower issue, repaired a trunk/liftgate problem, and also replaced a valve cover and gasket and battery. What stood out to me most was how knowledgeable, honest, and fair Samson and his team were throughout the process. The staff are friendly, the front desk is welcoming, and the customer service has been great. It's hard to find a shop that does quality work at reasonable prices, but 916 Auto Repair has done that for me. Definitely recommended.

I contacted 916 Auto after doing a 2 and half week research (which included Yelp and Google…read moreReviews) to have my 2004 Mazda 3 AC Condenser (Factory OEM) replaced. My AC Drier was cracked and inoperable since last year. In this region of the Sacramento Valley and Placer County, 916 Auto quote beat 5 shops I contacted in the region and 1 shop even told me it's not worth it and I should get a new car. Bet if my car was a 69 Camaro, they'd do it. Why? Cause its a Classic Camaro. No matter the condition. Some shops don't want to work on Imports. But oh well. Their loss, not mine. I contacted 916 Auto and spoke to Samson to schedule an appointment and he said to come by that very same day. And so I drove from Roseville to Gold River that morning. Samson is honest & to the point. When he pulled my car in, he noticed a coolant leak. Now I didn't notice any leaks in my driveway, as it would seem the Coolant is evaporating or dissipating, but he notice it was getting on my Alternator, by the stains. It turns out, my OEM water pump (factory part since 2003 for this model year in 2004) finally gave out at 262K miles. Who'd ever think a Mazda/Ford part would last this long. This was an unexpected thought as I only had budgeted for the quote. So I called my CFO (Wife) and let her know of the issue. She said get it fixed and she'll adjust other expenses as she knows I need AC for the upcoming summer temps. So I authorized Samson to proceed with the entire job. Now I can't couldn't do any price comparison, but he did give me a discount which still fit in my overall budget. I spent my whole day in their lobby. They have updated their lobby to make it feel more comfortable and less Auto Shop feel. I notice the many people who drop by to have their car service are all happy and are returning customers. From a Dealership oil drain plug that was torqued too tight, to oil changes, brakes, and even a customer who was a bit upset where the Dealership sent the wrong part twice. The Dealership. I spoke to many of them and they all had the same answer when I ask. "What made you come here?" They replied, "Their price can't be beat!". In summary, my AC is now working as it should. Now I only used my AC for 2 whole days It gets cold and it has been awhile since I have felt cold in my aging car of 22 years. With my new water pump installed as well, my car is running smoother overall. Smoother shifts, heater gets warm fast. Almost, now almost like it was in 2004. So, Did I find a new shop for my Project Commuter Car? Yes I sure did. They have gotten a new customer. Up next is my Transmission Gasket & plug. One thing at a time! Have fun out there & do your research!

I brought my 2010 Lexus GS 350 to Bidwell Automotive on Thursday for an alternator and serpentine…read morebelt replacement. I supplied a brand-new NAPA remanufactured alternator that came with a bench-test sheet showing it was verified at 14.4 volts. I picked the car up the same day, drove it about 25 minutes home, and parked it. Friday morning the car was completely dead -- no power, no dash lights, nothing. AAA tested the battery on-site and confirmed it was fine. I had the car towed to a nearby mechanic, who found the main fuse had blown and the plastic cover over that fuse box was broken. I then called Bidwell Automotive. Tom at the front desk told me they would cover the tow cost. Once the car was back at their shop for inspection, Bidwell determined the NAPA alternator was putting out 19 volts, blamed that for blowing the fusible link, and quoted $1,200 to replace the alternator again and repair the fuse box. They also attempted to charge $200 for the tow they had previously said they would cover, later offering it only as a conditional credit if I authorized their repair. I declined and retrieved the vehicle. A basic post-installation voltage check at the battery with the engine running is standard after an alternator replacement and takes under a minute. Whether the 19-volt output resulted from an internal regulator failure or an installation fault, skipping that check before handing back the keys (where they later documented a 19-volt output) released an unsafe vehicle onto the road. If that electrical system had failed while I was on the freeway at 65 mph, it would have been dangerous. I ended up having the repairs completed elsewhere at my own expense and am filing a complaint with the California Bureau of Automotive Repair regarding the workmanship and handling of the vehicle. Potential customers should be aware of how Bidwell handled both the repair and the aftermath.
