My husband and I have some horror stories about some mechanics we've dealt with in the past so our…read moretrust in mechanics was at zero. Knights auto was recommended by a good friend and we'll never take our vehicles anywhere else. We brought my husbands work truck in for a power of steering replacement. Within a few weeks of driving the truck it was making sounds like the pump was going back out. We brought the truck back to knights, they looked at it again and admitted the part was faulty. They replaced our pump with no cost. This showed outstanding integrity since In the past, we've dealt with mechanics who shrug off their mistakes and make it seem like it's your fault to get more money out of you. Not the case here. Love this shop. Won't find a more honest mechanic than Dave Knight in the mountain communities.

I just had a great experience at Phil's Automotive. My girlfriend and I moved to Big Bear Lake…read morealmost 3 years ago, and Phil's has been working on our three vehicles anytime we've needed repairs. Recently, a check engine light came on in one of our cars. I took it to AutoZone to have a diagnostic check run. They said I needed a new alternator and a few other parts serviced or replaced. I took it to Phil's. They thoroughly checked the car and ran their own diagnostics, and it turns out it wasn't the alternator. This isn't a ridicule ​or slam of the folks at AutoZone. It's just a vote of ​confidence and appreciation, knowing that there's an honest mechanic here in Big Bear Lake; they could've easily taken advantage of us. Needless to say, ​the crew ​at Phil's will be servicing our cars as long as we live in the BBL --

my initial experience was wonderful. Everything he did to my jeep went well. My problem began when…read morethey installed a new transmission. I had a hard time getting information regarding the new transmission. They said they ordered it from AutoZone. But when I went to AutoZone. They said they didn't have any record of it. The transmission encountered a couple of leaks the first two times they took care of it but as of now it's still leaking. I've left them several voicemails and an emails asking him if he could fix it. Yes I've even stopped at the shop. The strange part is the phone number that I've been in touch with the owner now says that it's the wrong number. But it's the same number on yelp. So I don't know if this guy is just playing games and doesn't want to step up to fix this problem. I just hope it's a miscommunication thing and he'll get back to me once he sees this. So Corey if you're out there, give me a call. I'd appreciate it thanks.
