[[HIGHLIGHT]]Fastest fix. My usual spot I go to wasn't accepting phone calls. I read they went under new management. So I needed to find a new spot to get my vehicle repaired.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I needed a car part replaced and car was taken here. Car was taken probably in probably no earlier than 2pm and car was finished just before 5pm. They had actually ordered the part even before the car got brought in. Hopefully I don't have anymore car trouble, but perhaps this is my new go-to spot. read more

Mike's Union Auto Repair - Auto Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

Very reliable local auto repair. They never try to sell you stuff you don't need and provide quality repairs at a fair price.

Really wanted to like them but after getting a second opinion....I'm disappointed that they lied to me about what was really needed which would've costed me hundreds for no good reason. I got my brakes checked out and they said I needed to get my brake pads and rotors replaced. My car is fairly new so hearing that rotors needed replacement even though I don't drive in snowy conditions, have a heavy foot or anything- was the first red flag. When I pressed and asked how it might've gotten so bad when my car is still new, they gave this weird answer about not letting car cool down before washing it which warps the rotor....if it was that sensitive to water, then I have really cheap parts and I doubt subarus skimp on that. They're a good brand. I also asked how bad the rotors were but they couldn't explain. They were like "its hard to tell but its probably wavy in some parts"....sooo you're telling me its not visibly obvious how "bad" the rotors are? They also charged $35 for this checkup. Ridiculous. Only thing preventing me from giving 1 star was fact that they were actually nice but I hate the upselling/dishonesty. read more

Replied to my project request on Yelp in a timely manner. Good customer service. A little expensive but did a good job with inspecting my car. read more

This place is fantastic! Competent Honest & Friendly Everything you could ask for in a mechanic. I'll definitely be back in the future read more

Mike's Union Auto Repair - Auto Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

There was a terrible burnt rubber smell that was occurring within the cabin of my car every time I accelerated after being idle and was getting worse and more frequent over time. I finally had time (and some money) to deal with it and brought my car to the shop that I was frequenting for the few recent car troubles I've had, since my own inspection left me clueless. They identified the issue was an engine leak, but the type of leak was something they couldn't fix. *shrugs* I call around and get quotes from other shops, I even call the guy I used to go to when I lived in Daly City. The quotes were either too damn high, or they were backed up due to the coming holiday (Turkey D) I call these guys, and they say I can bring my car in the next day. The person on the phone was very polite and friendly. I will admit, the diagnostic was pretty high, but they said it would go towards the cost of repair or something and I guess it worked out because the total cost with parts and labor ended up being lower than the quotes I got from other shops. Car was ready to pick up the next day and earlier than the time I was given. The person who spoke with me (I believe the daughter of the owners?) clearly explained the engine was leaking oil onto the muffler pipe and told me I would have to drive a bit more to completely rid of the smell as the residual oils still needed to burn off. The smell completely went away after about a week of driving. These guys clearly explained the issue, were able to repair my apparently unique engine leak after several shops turned me down, and the price was totally affordable. And for those reasons, they get five stars. read more

Having used "Mike's " for the past 3 years, (my mechanic of 30 years retired!) I have found them: Honest Reliable Knowledgeable Helpful Prompt All that cause me to give them My 5 stars! Use them. Jesse read more

My regular mechanic retired, so I was looking and found this shop local to me. Had brakes done, electrical checked, and minor repairs. Am very happy with them. The manager is a young woman who is so accommodating and friendly, it makes the experience much better. While you always have to watch these businesses, this one seems very honest and helpful. Hope to make them my new regular. read more

They got my car back to me with 3-4 hours (had a tire bolt that was broken that prevented me from changing out my flat tire), good work, and they were nice in allowing me to tow my car to their driveway overnight if I needed (I realized I needed the repair around 5:30pm on a weekday, and I didn't want to tow my car to some other faraway location just to bring it to their shop in the morning). read more

Got a flat tire (nail in tire) ; called in the morning, dropped by & 15mins later out the door Courteous and professional as well as good value read more

My car's alternator died, leaving it in a metered parking spot in SF, so I had to get it towed to a shop quickly. I called in, they picked up immediately and said they could fix my issue, gave me an accurate quote on the phone, and said I could tow my car to their shop as soon as I needed. I towed my car to their place. They further communicated by phone when my brakes and rotors were in need of replacement (I asked them to take a look because I had a feeling something was off). They also pointed out a valve leak had ruined some belts that needed replacing. I had been aware of this valve leak, so it makes sense that there would be downstream issues. Overall they were accurate in their quotes and timetables, communicative, and they were fast. They saved my old rotors, pads, and belts to take the time to show me their poor state and why they needed replacement when I came in to pick up the car. Again, my favorite part was how they were quickly available by phone when my car needed to be towed to a shop ASAP. Felt really nice to have a kind human pick up the phone within a few rings. Highly recommend Mike's Union Auto Repair. Thanks for getting me out of a bind. read more

Very effective and affordable service . Not easy to find in SF auto mechanic these days. Thank you Mike read more

This shop is outstanding! I'd go so far as to say, the best auto shop I have worked with ever. Very reasonably (and fair) prices, high integrity, responsive, transparent and very quick turn around. All these characteristics are unusual for an auto shop. I cannot recommend enough. I recently had a fender bender and had only worked them once before. I walked in on a weekday. They were busy, but quickly attended to me and provided an estimate within 20 mins. I decided to leave my vehicle with them. They then frequently checked in via text and phone when estimates changed (very minor changes). They waited for my approval before moving forward. They even found things I didn't know about and were very safety conscious. They suggested things that I could wait to repair later too. It felt like I was talking to a family member. read more

Kind people. Family business. Quick to fit me in for an oil change. Fair price. I would recommend calling to make sure they can accommodate you. It's a small business. read more

Love Mike's Union Auto Repair! Ping, the daughter was extremely helpful and friendly. She addressed my issues promptly. I love supporting a family owned business. Ping's service really was amazing. read more

Extremely honest, friendly, and efficient auto repair. I will definitely be coming back here. I think I paid less than what I was quoted too. I'm sure that doesn't always happen but it was a nice surprise for me. I stopped by and showed them what needed to be fixed and it was ready in less than 2 hours. Again, I'm sure that is situational but I was really pleased and able to get back to the smog station before they closed for a recheck. read more

I was on my early morning commute to work when my vehicle started to have issues. Fortunately I was 2 blocks away from the hospital I worked at, when the temperature gauge started to shoot up, and steam was rising from beneath the front end of my car. Luckily I was able to pull into the hospitals garage in the nick of time. It was March 2020, the beginning of Lockdown! Majority of Auto Repair Shops had already closed down and would remain so for the next few months! The handful of auto repair shops within the vicinity that remained open, were shutting down for the weekend, and were closing their shops at a much earlier hour. I did a search and was fortunate to find Mikes Union Auto Repair. The young lady that I had spoken to over the phone was very kind, understanding, accommodating, and patient. I explained my situation and they were willing to keep their shop open over the weekend until I could get my car towed in. I really appreciated her going out of her way for me. The vehicle was inspected and it turned out one of the hoses had burst, and all the engine coolant had drained. They replaced the hose and thermostat. They even found another issue which was the air intake hose was cracked. They were professional to ask if I had wanted it replaced before doing any additional work. To which I agreed. Within less than a week the repairs were done. The repair charge was fair and decent. I couldn't be more happier with the work they done. I am very happy with their services, and grateful to Mikes Union Auto Repair for getting me out of a pretty tuff predicament. Good hones people. You can't go wrong with this shop. read more

My go to place for all the car troubles. Very efficient and fast. Always reliable and trustworthy.

I believe that a person's character is very important. Although I can't speak to the quality of their repairs, I can say that the young woman who works at Mike's is a fine person who tried to help my wife when her car's steering wheel was locked when she was parked across from this shop. Even in this pandemic, she sat in the car and tried mightily to free the wheel. She couldn't do it, but I want to thank her for trying so hard to help my wife and then promising more help when someone came back from a lunch break. (My wife did manage to wrench the steering wheel free!) read more

THANK YOU MIKE'S!!! This shop has been a life saver for me lately. Amazing service. They are super quick, fair prices, thorough and professional. Great communication and such a pleasure to do business with them! read more

Great service and friendly! They are honest and do a thorough job. Definitely plan to use them again!

This place is awesome! Fast, friendly & competent service. Honest prices, and good work. They have never let me down.

Very honest and helpful. Gave me alot of info to help with my decision and even recommended I get quotes from others to compare. I will use them again. read more

Conclusion: Extremely fast, honest, quality service and priced very reasonably. Would be first mechanic team I call for major services. Story time: My 2004 Lexus es330 started rumbling Friday night along with check engine light blinking. Not. Something you put off looking into with your car. Dropped by Mike's the next day (Saturday) soon as they opened at 9am. They were able to quickly diagnosis issue and committed to having it fixed Monday morning. Left car there and picked up donuts nearby. I got a call same day Saturday afternoon saying car was fixed and could be picked up Sunday morning (even though they weren't open). That's going extra mile for your customers. Met up Sunday morning at 8:30 and cost was exactly to original estimate. Absolutely nothing but pleasant surprises. read more

I highly recommend Mike's Union Auto Repair. They were very professional and took the time to explain things clearly and made sure I understood the repairs. They also took the time to see if I had any questions as well. They went above and beyond to provide excellent service in a timely matter. Not only did they do a great job but they had great customer service. I looked around at other auto repair shops and Mikes Union auto repair shop gave the best deal by far. Their price was very reasonable which made me very happy. read more

Mike's union auto repair did a pre-purchase inspection for me. They were responsive and saw me almost immediately. They promised a turn around within one hour and succeeded. Ping runs the office, Answers the phones, receives vehicles and debriefs customers. She did an excellent job. The inspection itself was terrific. Amazing detail supported by written checklist and photographs. The shop is very small but remarkably efficient. Highly recommended. read more

I've had car troubles with my 2003 Mazda Protege5 twice this past year. Both times I've taken it to Mike's Union and they have delivered great results both times! First was an issue with spark plugs, and then there was an air leak and tires needed to be replaced. Mike's is usually available for drop-offs when other car shops are busy. They are very responsive and very reasonably priced! They took the time to answer any questions I had, and went above and beyond to keep me in the loop while my car was in the shop. Thank you Mike's Union! read more

Reached out to these guys on Yelp and didn't receive a response although they seen the request. One star for customer service.

As a young woman I am often intimidated by mechanics and the like, but the folks at Mike's were kind and helpful. They did the work quickly and for a very reasonable price. Thank you! read more

My go to repair place. Honest, efficient, transparent. They helped me, hassle free, sort insurance and repairs after a fender bender. Again efficient and helpful when I had an coolant leak. read more

I am a regular customer here, this business is owned and runs by a great family, they are friendly and working hard, the price range is also very reasonable, they offer oil change, tires change, repair flat tire, and other kinds of service, highly recommend! read more

Went to Mike's with a flat tire and also had them look at a loose part of the bumper to see if they could do an inexpensive cosmetic fix. They were very upfront about cost, and their timeline, and did the work quickly. Will go back! read more

I wholeheartedly recommend Mike's Auto Repair for anything you need related to your car -- they were prompt, kind, thorough and very reasonably priced. They were also so helpful! They went out of their way to identify some issues with my car that they personally couldn't fix, but gave me all the information I needed to find another repair shop that could do the work. They honestly saved me from driving my car while it was unsafe to do so, and they asked for no money in exchange - they genuinely just wanted me to be safe. I would recommend without reservation! read more

We brought our MINI here after it started having some serious engine trouble. From the start, the staff and service was top notch! They gave us a quote for the work and a thorough description of several things that needed to be fixed to get the car running right again. The work took a couple of weeks, but they were communicative the entire time, providing descriptions of the work done and images of their work. They were able to get everything fixed and came in exactly right on their estimates. A great experience and we'll definitely be bringing our car back here in the future! read more
