My car had some transmission problems on my way down the grapevine so I stopped by MB auto center to get it checked out. They were spot on with their diagnosis of my issue and gave me very reasonable prices on the options available to fix this situation, unfortunately I don't live in that area and it world take a few days up to a week or so to fix it properly. So they helped me out by finding a tow truck company willing to tow me the 150 miles home. If you have an auto problem and your near by I recommend MB Auto. read more

Very pleasant crew working here They are very meticulous on all work done. Honest and affordable Highly recommend! Victor C. read more

Over priced. There pricing goes by dealer labor prices. And parts. They will charge going by the dealer pricing. They gave me enormous price on replacing struts 2011 Nissan. I drove to the Valley and got a better price. Paid just labor. I got the parts on line. Cheeper then MB. They are only good for oil changes. My opinion. They need to give better prices and labor to get customers. read more

On our way up from SD the plastic splash shield has a bolt come loose and it was dragging. Luckily MB Auto center was right next to where we were getting gas (shell). We waiting the 1.5hr for them to open. They took care of it right away. No hassle and didn't charge us. That doesn't happen too often lately. Fantastic crew. Everyone was helpful and kind. read more

Took My 2015 Ford Escape with a small issue concerning my interior dome lights. They would not turn OFF and I couldn't figure it out troubleshooting myself. I talked to Mike at MB in Castaic. Had me bring it in and approximately 45 minutes later he called me back that he had fixed the problem. When I went to pick up my car, I was even more pleased at the cost and I even tipped Mike a little just because he was extremely courteous, professional and really respectful. Thanks Mike! Your a great guy and you provide great service to customers. Anyone who goes to MB Auto Service in Castaic, seriously Mike is the guy to talk to read more

Was having some major car issues on the way up the grapevine. Stopped at MB so see what the issue was and they were so quick! They took us immediately and ran a bunch of diagnostics. Unfortunately the damage to the engine was going to be more costly than the car itself. Byron was so helpful throughout this super stressful ordeal. He even drove my sister and I around to find a rental car place, which all happened to be closed for the holiday weekend :( My sister ended up needing a new car but our experience at MB was amazing. Byron waived the diagnostic fees, handled the junking of the car, and took the time and care to thoroughly explain the issues and process to us. I even wish I lived closer to make this my regular mechanic. Thank you Byron & the MB team(: read more

On our way back to Fresno on Thanksgiving, just passed Magic Mountain, we ran over a garbage bag with something really heavy. Thank God, we did not hit it with our tire. Otherwise we would have rolled and it would have caused great injury not only to us but other people and vehicles. Thank God we were right near the exit to MB auto Center in Castaic, Ca. After talking to a driver and a tow truck, he referred us to to MB auto center. we went there Friday morning, they had so many cars to work on, thought we would be there for a few more days. It appeared that we needed a new radiator , we weren't sure if we'd be able to get a radiator...etc. they were able to get the radiator. They got us back on the road before dark on Friday. read more

Didn't know what was wrong with my tire took it to MB. They did a quick check. Said I was just missing a clip or a screw. They put it in for me. Free of charge and I was on with my day. Very good service would recommend. read more

I've taken cars/trucks here 4 times for oil changes but I won't be going back. Sent someone to get an oil change and tire rotation only for a small car. Wish I went instead. The up charges are absolutely ridiculous that it came out to $227.67! I had to laugh when I saw the receipt. Mostly upset that they installed a new cabin filter when I personally just installed one 4 months ago for 13 bucks and they charged $50. Mind you, they typical are good for 20k miles. Told the person it was "really dirty." After 4 months? Really? Anyway, see the receipt, make your decision. Lost our business. read more

MB Auto Center - Way overpriced, up-selling. Check prices around! - Auto Repair Near Me - Castaic, California

Byron, really appreciate you and your crew getting me back on the road. Smooth ride, doesn't pull to either side.

Excellent service all around. JJG read more

We were on a trip up North for a tournament, and we broke down midway, AAA towed us to this location, and they were LIFE savers! They took care of our vehicle and got us back on track.

The skid plate on my car came loose, and started dragging against the asphalt while I was on the grapevine. We got towed to MB auto just before closing time and they quickly assessed it and bolted it back in place. We were able to get back on the road to get home to the Bay Area. Super friendly and helpful. Thank you! read more

Had to take the car back the next day after it broke down for the same reason. Had to leave the car stranded for the night and slowly drive it back (using emergency lanes) the next morning. read more

It is so wonderful to have an honest, reliable auto mechanic shop in Castaic. Byron Jr. and the entire team always go above and beyond to diagnose and quickly repair our cars. Having an honest mechanic is so important to me. I highly recommend this business. read more

I have been taking my truck to them for oil changes for years. Always been fast and gave me the exact oil I wanted. The other day my sunroof broke in the tilted up position. I asked them if they could take a look at it and potentially fix it, they immediately dropped what they were doing and were able to get the sunroof down after tinkering with it for several minutes. They were not able to fix it completely as it is a much more complicated job, but they were able to give me a temporary solution. When I offered to compensate them for their time they declined! These guys are amazing! Always take your vehicles to them! read more

I had a flat tire on Monday July 10th at about 5pm in Burbank. I live in Castaic and have gone to MB Auto Center for a couple years for my regular maintenance. I called them up while I was waiting for AAA to put my spare on. They got all my information, called me back to discuss tire prices ordered my tire. By 10:30am the next morning I had a new tire and was back at work. Thank you so much for your great service. read more

My car broke down in the Grapevjne and was towed here. Very helpful and friendly.

Truly helpful and kind given the circumstances. read more

5 stars for super fast knowledgeable service that had us back on the road in less than 10 min. We had something come loose on the freeway that started making a scraping noise. We elected last minute to try MB Auto to investigate, based on good reviews. Well, Sonny and team delivered for us by getting under the car, confirming the problem and replacing some lost bolts on a skid plate that had come loose. Great experience. read more

Amazing, brought a car from Cali that had been in an accident where someone hit me directly in the rear passenger wheel. They bent everything in the wheel support. I had Honda replace rods and supports. I had other mechanics work on the car and replace suspension systems and the wheels kept wearing out on the inside having to replace tires every 3 months. They diagnosed the problem, fixed this issue and never had a problem with the car ever again and it wasn't even expensive. So thankful! read more

I drive from quartz hills just to come see Byron senior and Jr, only ones I trust working on my car!

If you need excellent service...see Valvoline in the MB Auto Center in Castaic. The prices are reasonable and the service is even better. I highly recommend this place. The people are professional and welcoming. I appreciate and value their work. Thanks everyone. read more

My check engine light came on, took my truck to MB, Eddie diagnosed it, and save me a lot of money!!! Fixed the issue ... highly recommended MB Auto as they will fix your car and not rip you off with service that isn't needed !!! read more

Reliable and gave my Mazda CX-9 a great service. Had an oil change, brought my own oil and filter, charged me $50 for labor.

I gave this place a chance by sending my car to the shop for a faulty part because my other mechanic I usually go to was busy and this shop is around the corner from my house. As typical they try to overcharge you for a part that's a fraction of the price which is very insulting and disrespectful in my view, but I understand that it's business. They will take advantage of people who are gullible and inexperienced in doing their own research in comparing part prices. I would not recommend coming here. read more

I have been taking my mom's, daughter's and my own car to MB Auto for the last 2 years for oil changes. I now live in Simi Valley and drove to Castaic because I like the friendly and personable service I have always received. Two weeks ago I left a bit disappointed that the customer service wasn't the same. In the past, I have received outstanding customer service such as the time Byron told me that rats were chewing the wires in my mom's car. He wrapped the wires for me with instructions to try to park elsewhere and he warned me of the damage and high repair costs they can create. Always doing that little extra for his customers. This time while checking my transmission fluid, I heard one of the guys mention to another that my transmission must have become hot based on the smell of the transmission fluid. He didn't mention it to me and when I asked him about it I was told that it was no big deal and the mileage on my car isn't that high that I need to worry about it. I paid for the service, was given my receipt and left very disappointed that I didn't get the outstanding customer service that I have received in the past. I will still drive the 45 minutes to get my oil changed, I just hope the customer service will be better next time. read more

Sitting on the side of the 5 fwy, car overheating, waiting for AAA, I start to google local mechanics. MB Auto came up with solid reviews, and I'm here to add another. Good work, clear explanations, no upselling, reasonable price, and very personable mechanics. I left smiling; I do believe they stayed after hours to finish my car, so I wouldn't have to pay for another night in a hotel. Touched my heart. Castaic is a pretty town, with friendly people, and now I'm on my way again. read more

The experience I had here was disgusting to say the least. Called ahead to make sure they had time for me, they said they are only working on 1 car so come on in and we can start right away. We get there every car port was taken but one. We ask to speak to the manager and was told he's busy very rudely. We see the manager and ask him to speak with him. He jumps down our throats and yells "what what can I help you with" we said " I just called ahead to make sure you guys were going to be able to see me today and you said you could start right now. I come here and there's no space for me to even park." He says well if you want to be seen today your going to have to wait a few hours. WHAT! How ridiculous! Very unprofessional! If I could give negative stars I definitely would! read more

We got towed to this shop after our car broke down nearby and we couldn't have been more pleased with the service we received! The staff at MB Auto Center are extremely friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. They worked on our car quickly and even allowed us to keep our car at the shop while we flew home and coordinated a long distance tow for our car. Definitely recommend this shop if you're in the area! read more

A few years back (this review is long overdue) I stopped in at this spot as my car's splash guard had partly broken off while on the freeway. Byron and his team were kind enough to help me out with a temporary fix to get me back on my way. I thoroughly appreciated their outstanding customer service and kindness. Highly recommend! read more

BEST EXPERIENCE AT A MECHANIC! I'm not from the area. I was traveling from Los Angeles to Oakland in my 99' Corolla. My car broke down on me as I was traveling through the grapevine, snapped serpentine belt. I called around and immediately MB Auto said they would be able to help. They recommend a tow truck. Adam, the boss, at AA Tech Solutions came and picked me up himself. He told me I'd would be in good hands at MB Auto Center. When I arrived Byron quickly diagnosed the problem and gave me a list of solutions. He was fair and honest. Told me what to expect and after getting the job done sent me on my way safely. His entire crew was helpful and friendly. If I was ever to get trapped in the mountains again, and I pray not, I hope MB Auto Center is close enough that they can help me. read more
