I got my oil changed there and they let me know my cabin filter is okay, I trusted them but The next couple of weeks I start feeling like crap cause of my allergies. If the cabin filter is even a tiny bit dirty I like it replaced. [[HIGHLIGHT]]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.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]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.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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 read more

Talk about having your back: They've done it again. Went in for an afternoon oil change and a check on squeaky brake. Raul changed the oil. When I went to pick up the car, Raul gave me the news. The brakes were desperate for an overhaul and the brake fluid had moisture in it. We'd have to make an appointment right away. "how about tomorrow" When I told him that tomorrow I had to make a trip up the coast he said without hesitation,"Oh no it won't. this car is not making any trips until this is done!" "But I have to testify at a hearing tomorrow!" Again without hesitation he said, "Nope, this car is in a dangerous condition. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Then he looked at his day book, "I can rearrange my afternoon schedule and we can get it out by 5:30 or 6 today."[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I said, "Sure, let's do that." [[HIGHLIGHT]]At 5:25 I received the call. "It's all done" and they drove it to me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] These guys really care about what they do for their customers and they go out of their way for safety even at their own inconvenience.

Lemos 76 is our go-to service station in the Carmel area for Smog Inspections and tune-ups. We do call ahead for appointments as they can get very busy.

Let's see, I take the car in at 3:30 pick it up at 4:05. Charged for .9 hours labor(@ $150.00per hour) went back and tried to get an explanation for the over charge on labor hours. Went back to ask why I was charged .9 hours, all 3 people have the same answer." We shouldn't be penalized for being fast" was the pat answer from all three! Pretty well rehearsed! I wouldn't want anyone else to have to endure this dog and pony show. It was worth it just to get out of there. Beware!!! read more

Absolute saints. While staying in Carmel, the wife and I were on our way to Big Sur in our rental car when we hit a gnarly pot hole on a roadside pull off. It popped the little plastic shield under the car loose and it started to drag when we went over about 25 MPH. We called the rental location and, as always, they were little help. So we called Lemos 76 and they said they couldn't fit us in for an appointment, but if we wanted to run by they could look at it. We did, they said it was a cheap plastic part, and lo and behold in about 25 minutes remedied the issue and reattached -- all for the price of the lift fee. We drove 5+ hours the next day with zero issue. The team was wonderful and did everything to make sure we were back on the road quickly, even without a reservation. Thank you Lemos! Forever grateful. read more

Very fast service and no extra charge for installation fee. Customer service was friendly and very fast. read more

Made a same day appointment for a smog check required to renew my registration. All the staff was polite, and there is a little seating area to the side where I waited while the smog test was run.

Our car was making a strange noise as soon as we approached Carmel from San Jose. Yikes! Thought our weekend would be ruined, but Justin saved the day. read more

My car made a horrible sound on start up 2 months after a new alternator was installed by another mechanic. Kurt knew exactly what the problem was - a belt on the alternator needed adjustment. He fixed it in five minutes and was kind enough not to charge me. I was shocked. I'm so accustomed to being charged hundreds, or thousands to take care of my car repairs. It was refreshing to get a break for once. Kurt is a mechanical genius and Lemo's 76 is very fortunate to have him in their employ. I've been buying gas there for 2 1/2 years. I'll be doing that for life now. Thanks read more

We rolled in today with no appointment after discovering a coolant leak in our 25 year old Toyota truck. Justin diagnosed the issue in less than a minute and had the parts ordered and a new radiator installed before the end of the day. He was so kind and professional that we left there feeling like we had met an old friend. Lemos 76 is a treasure for the Carmel area and Justin is that rare combination of great mechanical mind and caring about the people who rely on the vehicle. Thank you Justin and Lemos 76 for really stepping up. read more

highly recommended , very reasonable rate and very helpful people. Service is amazing. 5 out of 5 stars While returning back from camping My car was wobbling. I went to this shop.

These people did not add any extra charge for emergency. On top of it they gave free service for oil change , glass clean and viper liquid , Very reasonable rate. Again, highly recommended. read more
