Well, not only did they take the vehicle for a drive. It was driven to their home in Ventura and parked overnight on their property. It was brought back to the business the following day. Did they think that my friend was not going to find out. That's a liability issue on the Owner of the business. My friend let them know of the disappointment of what they did. They still did not get it. Their rational was that they were testing the vehicle. This will be my last time they will have my friends business. Customers beware of the owners. They are dishonest and lack integrity.

I explained the issue to Dave and dropped the car off. He never gave me a written estimate of the cost of repairs to fix the issue, but proceeded to take most of the engine apart and car parts (filters, wipers, license plate light etc.) and sent me photos of the parts on the shop floor. Without authorization or an estimate he proceeded with replacement of parts that he decided to replace amounting to $1000. According to B.A.R., repair shops are required to give you a written estimate to sign before beginning any repairs . Now, two days later, the Maintenance Required light is on after $1000 payment for work that was not authorized.

If you're looking for an honest, highly skilled mechanic, S & M Automotive is outstanding and checks so many boxes! I come down from Ventura to see "Shady", and his name couldn't be more ironic, because there's nothing shady about him or his work. He's been maintaining my 2005 Lexus SC430 and has saved me a boatload of money on repairs and maintenance over the years. He's respectful, friendly, and clearly takes pride in getting things right. My most recent service made the car run like it did when it was new. The engine is humming smoothly again, something I've honestly NEVER experienced after a repair or routine maintenance anywhere else and I've owned this car since 2007. And while the name S & M Automotive might make some people do a double take (hahaha), the only thing painful here is realizing how unnecessary other repair bills can be once you find a mechanic this good and dependable. If you want honest, skilled automotive service, S & M Automotive is absolutely trustworthy and dependable.

Shady and his team are wonderful to work with. The first time I took my car to S&M I ran into two…read morewomen in the waiting area that had glowing reviews for the shop. Shady was very professional and straight forward with me about what was absolutely necessary to fix and what could wait. Just this week I took my car to Firestone to get the tires rotated. I was told by Firestone my rear brakes and rotors needed to be replaced at the tune of $700. I was skeptical and called S&M for a quote. They gave me a rough estimate of $450 and told me to bring in the car the next day, because it was likely I didn't need the repair. Sure enough, when I took it to S&M, they said I could wait to replace the rear brakes. I trust S&M and Shady. I will definitely continue to take my car to them.

Camarillo Car Care Center is an excellent auto repair shop located on the corner of Lewis Road and…read moreDaily Drive near the Camarillo Amtrak/Metrolink Station. I have been going there for my car care needs for over 20 years. They offer great service and their staff is very friendly and they're great at explaining very technical issues. They also offer a free shuttle service if you need a ride, although it isn't always available, particularly late in the day. And also please note they are not open on weekends. One thing to keep in mind is the old saying "you get what you pay for" is very true here. On one hand, they are a bit on the expensive side. So, if you just need an oil change you can find another place that can do it for a lower price. However, if you have a serious issue with your car I can't think of a better place to take it. I've found their work is really good so it works out in the long run since you won't have to take your car back multiple times. Plus, you can get an oil change too if you need one. So, I highly recommend Camarillo Car Care Center for your auto repair needs.

They go that extra mile so to speak, taking me to and from my house if the car needs to be in the shop for several hours since I live close by.
