    I was able to bring my car in this morning to get my tires checked, and Jeff helped me take care of…read moreall my maintenance while I was there. He even had to grab some struts from San Jose, and I still got my car back by the end of the day, which was honestly pretty impressive. Super attentive, fast, and easy to work with. My car feels brand new now. Really appreciate the great service!

    Came in after my tire popped and the guy working at the desk kept trying to tell me my brake line…read morewas also damaged and it needed replacement along with the caliper, when it turned out none of that was true. I show him the picture I took of the brake line which looks intact and has no leaks, and he keeps insisting the thread is broken. Then in the middle of this his maintenance guy comes in and says he simply put the "bolt" back in and everything's good to go. Awkward. Then he's trying to get me to pay $190 to flush my brakes and says there's no way to know if theres a leak until my brakes get flushed. What??? Of course I don't do it and take my car to another more reputable shop to get the brakes checked just to make sure, and they tell me everything looks good. I can't say with certainty he was deliberately trying to scam me, but he's obviously giving tons of WRONG INFORMATION that could've cost me hundreds if not thousands of dollars while banking on me not knowing much about cars. On top of all that - after looking at the invoice I see they charge a 4% CREDIT CARD PAYMENT fee but didn't mention a single word about it. Not only is 4% MORE than what they have to pay for their own processing but not properly disclosing it or giving me an option to pay with cash or debit seems to border on ILLEGAL according to state laws. SHADY.

    I went into get an oil change and tire rotation. However, found something completely unexpected!…read moreThe treads on my front tires were almost gone on the inside and the back tires had huge cracks. Jim was super nice and showed me the cracks and bumps in my tires. Super glad I had my car checked or I'd be in serious trouble! Thank you Jim and team for fixing my car! Def feel a difference now that my shock adjusters and tires are fixed! Will come again'

    This is an honest review to help others who require auto repair. This was my experience at TL…read moreAuto... I walked in and asked for a quote for my WRX, a clutch and hydraulic replacement, and was given an estimate of over $6,000! After doing some research and checking with local Subaru specialists such as PM Autoworks, I found that TL's pricing was nearly double the market rate for both parts and labor. Unfortunately, TL Auto quoted $4,242.99 just for the clutch replacement, WITHOUT a flywheel resurface or a flywheel. PM Autoworks quoted $2,058.09 for the same job WITH an OEM flywheel. In my case, TL Auto is applying HUGE markups on basic OEM hardware. For example, TL auto charges $942.87 JUST for a "Genuine" clutch flywheel, AND $948.94 for a clutch kit, which comes out to $1,891.81 for BOTH. Fortunately, PM Autoworks charges $921.68 for BOTH the OEM clutch and OEM flywheel, and other parts that make up a clutch kit are also included in the price. TL quoted over $1,700 for the replacement of the master/slave cylinders. I was able to source the high-quality Japanese OEM parts (Seiken/Nabtesco) from PartsGeek for $280.10, and PM Autoworks charges 2 hours of labor (inquired after the quote) instead of the 4+ hours implied by TL's quote. By going to PM Autoworks instead of TL Auto, I am saving an HONEST $4,000 for the same work!! In my case, the price difference isn't just a few hundred dollars--it's thousands! If you work hard for your money, I strongly recommend that anyone, especially Subaru owners, AVOID the "general repair" markups at TL Auto. (See attached photos for proof of the price gap.) *** UPDATE*** Just got the work done (and then some) on my WRX by PM Auto. For all the work performed, the total was UNDER $3k! (Invoice in picture). It only took them 6 hours--straight up skills. TL Auto claims their pricing "reflects the quality of parts we use and the confidence we have in the work performed." That's fine, but high quality shouldn't be an excuse to charge an absurd markup for "exceptional service." They also claim their pricing includes complimentary rideshare and free loaner vehicles, yet a friend of mine who had work done there was never offered those services. Let's get one thing straight, PartsGeek is one of the BEST places to get OEM parts at a respectable price. Just because they are a "discount website" doesn't mean they aren't an equivalent comparison. They sell the exact same parts without the massive markup. Some businesses, like TL Auto, clearly don't like it when customers do their research and shop smart. Even more telling: TL Auto failed to admit they overcharged on their estimate for the SAME OEM parts that PM Auto sourced directly from the dealership. I'm sharing this to be transparent about my experience. I don't want others to be robbed by shops like this. I will never take my cars back there, and I'll be advising everyone I know to stay away as well. (Final invoice in the pictures)

    I can't say enough good things about this place. Shagan helped me out late at night when every…read moreother shop was already closed. My car was being towed, and he stayed past closing just to make sure I was taken care of. That alone told me everything I needed to know about how he runs his business. Since that night, I've continued to bring my car back here because the service is always on point. Shagan is honest, highly skilled, and actually cares about doing the job right instead of just rushing you out the door. His shop is very clean and organized, which says a lot about his standards. There's also a coffee shop right next door, so it's convenient if you're waiting, and the location is perfect for anyone in the Fremont or Union City area. What really sets him apart is that he stands behind his work. If something isn't right or needs adjusting and it was his mistake, he fixes it at no extra cost. That kind of integrity is rare these days. Great prices, great work, great service. I highly recommend Ace Tires & Wheel. 10/10.

    I came here to replace my front tires after they blew out. When Ace Tire and Wheel replaced them,…read morethey didn't mention anything about the alignment. However, I could visibly see that the tires were slanted. Later, I went to another shop and was told the front alignment was off, making the car unsafe to drive. I'm frustrated that Ace Tire didn't point this out or address it. It felt like they were only focused on replacing the tires and making money rather than making sure the vehicle was safe. I left thinking everything was fine when it clearly wasn't. Because of this, I don't feel confident in their service and won't be returning or recommending this shop to anyone.

    I had Jay come do a Prepurchase Inspection for a 2007 Toyota Tundra at Premier Motors in Hayward…read more The cost was $240 and he showed up at the time he agreed upon. He was very thorough, did a computer check, thorough check under the truck and on the engine, and test drive, and was able to see that a light had been replaced, rust had been painted over, a previous accident/damage had occurred that was not on the CarFax, the rear differentials were leaking and needed replacement, and there were some small leaks in the engine as well that would require future repair as well (along with other smaller things). There was at least $2500 worth of work that would have to be done to be safe to tow immediately and about $4000 total of work within a year. He thought the truck was overpriced at $17,900 with the fixes needed. I tried to negotiate the price for these fixes and the dealer would not budge a single cent. They were obviously not used to a mechanic checking out their trucks. He saved me $4000 worth of fixes on an overpriced truck so walked away. Very honest guy and highly recommend.

    Jay looked at my Honda MiniVan and just by looking at the engine and the description of symptoms…read moreverbal and real display, he was able to tell me the problem(s) I've in the car. BTW this was free inspection/estimate at my house driveway. I didn't have to go anywhere. I've a fair idea of what are the problems - Jay explained it in detail. I would highly recommend Jay for car related problems. I am deciding what to do now that I know full extent of the problem(s) and the fact that its an 17 year old minivan with close to 200k miles. But (I am hopeful), if decide to get it fixed, it will be Jay who would get my business.
