Had an 8:30 a.m. Saturday appointment for a check engine light and several other items. The check…read moreengine light turned out to be a cylinder misfire, and what I thought might become a very expensive engine repair ended up being much more reasonable than expected. The team at Phan's diagnosed the problem, explained everything clearly, and completed the repairs professionally. They also took care of several smaller items while the car was there, which was very convenient. It's not always easy to find an honest, reliable independent mechanic, but we had an excellent experience and would definitely recommend Phan's Auto Repair. As a bonus, Stars & Stripes gas station and car wash is right around the corner, so you can fill up, get a great car wash, and call it a day.

Are you going to warranty issues that arise to the switching to an oil that would void a mfg…read morewarranty? I bet not! Higher viscosity leads to higher pressures which lead to seals leaking and failing. I'm really surprised you haven't researched this. How about the leaking oil filter a day after install? Seems like a sure way to get more money outta a customer once their engine gets starved of oil. How about the sloppy work with oil left all over my car? Lack of care and integrity. How about the scratches from resting my tires on the paint of my car? Lazy and inconsiderate. Pulled from the article that copied and pasted "Engine Design Changes: Newer Toyota engines are designed with tighter tolerances and specific lubrication needs that necessitate these thinner oils, such as OW-16 or OW-8." Exactly my 2019 Lexus ux250 is a newer Toyota engine if you weren't aware , so why are changing it?

I have been a loyal customer of this shop for over three years, ever since I purchased an old…read morepickup truck for my teenage son. Aaron and his team consistently deliver excellent service, keeping this 19-year-old truck running reliably. Aaron has always been patient and thorough in diagnosing any concerns I've had, whether minor or major, and he consistently provides the best solutions to meet my needs. He stands behind his work and does not hesitate to make things right--at no additional charge--if an issue is not fully resolved. Aaron is an honest, skilled, and trustworthy mechanic who has earned my confidence and respect. I look forward to continuing to do business with his shop for many years to come.

I cannot say enough good things about this repair shop and, especially, Francisco…read more My vehicle was originally stuck at the dealership service center with an open invoice that had to be paid before they would release it. When Francisco reviewed the invoice, he immediately spotted erroneous charges and argued on my behalf to have them corrected - without me even asking. I showed his email to several friends, and even they were shocked by how thorough and professional he was in pushing back. That alone earned my trust. Francisco personally picked up my vehicle, coordinated everything seamlessly, and had an entirely new engine installed within a week - which is incredible considering the scope of the work. To make matters even better, he later removed a charge from my estimate because the actual cost to him was less. Who does that? That level of honesty is rare. From start to finish, this shop demonstrated integrity, efficiency, and genuine customer advocacy. I never felt taken advantage of, rushed, or kept in the dark. Francisco treated my car - and my money - as if they were his own. If you're looking for a shop that is skilled, ethical, fast, and truly stands up for their customers, this is it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone, and I will absolutely return for future work.

At the beginning of the year my Honda Civic was experiencing electrical issues and I needed a quick, reliable fix due to having to commute more than an hour daily for work. I saw the positive reviews for Western Auto and gave them a call as soon as they opened. I spoke with Andy and he was very knowledgeable and was kind enough to get me in the same day for a diagnostic check. The quote was fair and I was initially told that the car would be done by Monday since a part needed to be ordered. I was surprised to hear from Andy the following day that the car was done, before the weekend! Had an awesome experience here. Fair prices, good work, and great customer service. I will definitely be coming back again for any future maintenance etc.

I respected that they did not upcharge after my quote, I paid exactly what my quote was. Other autoshops seemed to want more and their quotes were just the minimum price. Second time I brought it in for diagnosis and inspection and they quickly found that all I needed was oil change. They were kind enough to give a significant discount for the inspection fee. They seem to be good in telling you what needs to be fixed and not overcharging or telling you stuff needs done when it's fine

The other problem I was having was that my car was making a screeching noise when I first turned it on. When I brought it in for Vinh to take a look at, he said oh, neither thing is a big deal. He showed me that yes, there was an issue with the blinker switch but I could still use it so it was not imperative that it be replaced. He told me that if I wanted to replace it he would but it would be cheaper for me to purchase the switch myself and he'll change it out. He also told me the belts needed to be changed. I really appreciated that he was honest and told me that it's not a big deal. Unlike when you get your oil changed at a Valvoline and they act like you're going to die if you don't change your cabin filter. I went in on a busy day without an appointment. He kept me updated about how long it would take and who was in front of me. The service was great and prices were very reasonable. Only thing I wish I knew in advance was that it's cash only but that's on me for not reading the reviews. I'll be coming back for any and all services I need in the future.
