    My Ford CMAX Hybrid had a dead battery and we needed it checked and replaced quickly. Rick and his family team got me in early Monday morning and identified the issue (new battery) and had it installed within about an hour. I had great service early Monday and the price was great. I found everyone I spoke with outgoing, helpful, and very happy to help. I would highly recommend Oceanside Auto Repair on Mission for your auto maintenance and repair service needs. They do smog, oil changes, and all manner of auto repairs. It is a family run, local business, Rick is the manager and always there to help. And they have a comfortable waiting area!

    Rick & his crew did a great job! If you need a smog, I definitely recommend you bringing your vehicle here! Very reasonably priced too! Ron Z.

Due to the holiday they were not open, like we originally thought but when we were told Monday we just thought maybe they were going to be open regardless. We were able to reach someone and were told the car would be ready the following morning, we showed up and the car was still being worked on. We came back a few hours later and the car was still actively being worked on but was finished within the hour. Prices were reasonable and as far as we can tell the work was done properly.

His prices were very reasonable (after shopping around) and I was impressed with his efforts in confirming any problems before doing the work. So recently the dealership told us our rear brake pads were down to 2mm. I didn't have time that day for the dealer to do the work, and then decided to have A Better Auto Repair do the job. They removed the wheels and confirmed with photos we still had 5mm of pad left. They had every incentive to just go ahead and replace the pads, but they were honest enough to let me know I still had life left on the pads and could wait to replace them until worn further. They even topped off the coolant. Enough said. I'll be returning.

It's one of the longest tunnels as I've been to 3-4 locations and some tunnels are half the size. Odd cuz the shorter ones must have less equipment operating yet my car always seems to be just as clean no matter what location I hit. But Oceanside at the 76 and Foussat is my local spot. Attendants are ALWAYS upbeat and positive and willing to help out. I could share some stories but will save you. Just know that they are fantastic with customer service. I even read a few 2 and 1 star reviews and those people still gave kudos to the workers. The other things they got down on them for (faulty equipment, car damage??). I don't know any of that and haven't heard anyone talk about that and I get my ride spruced at least once every 2 weeks and more like once a week! You know how it is. I've got kids too, bro! I usually need the inside more than outside but why not get both when you have the monthly unlimited pass? Wash, rinse and repeat and your whip will never look nasty. The ladies, or dudes, and maybe both, will be stretching their necks as you shoot by. One. "Concern" I have to bring up is the constant issue of non-operable vacuums It seems almost every time I go for a wash, the vacuum is not working -little to zero suction. However I will say that the team is in it as those hoses are typically repaired within a week or so. I think it's a problem that is somewhat out of their control. The problem being too much usage. I would argue this location is the busiest.

I wound up replacing the steering coupler in the EPS motor to correct the issue. However, I ended up with no power steering and an EPS and Traction light. Researching showed that I'd need to recalibrate the steering angle sensor to correct the issue. I turned it in to Jared and they found a connector wasn't fully seated. They connected the connector and recalibrated the sensor. They also performed a 36 point inspection and found other areas that needed attention. Me loving to work on my cars within my skill set told Jared that I'd be fixing those issues. Jared is such a breath of fresh air. I've been to other places where they put the pressure on you non stop to have them do the repairs but Jared didn't. He was extremely professional and stated that he just needed to inform me of the issues and said if I ever need them again, they are there for me. Please, if you're on the fence about a trust worthy place... don't feel that way with Mission Auto Care. I highly recommend this place to everyone and am very glad to know that I have such a professional and trustworthy repair shop in my local community. 2019 Review: Took my vehicle in which was an out of state purchase from PA. Explained to Jared that there was some concerns I had in regards to the seller lying and spraying over rust. I explained a couple of other items of concern as well. I also told Jared up front that I'm a DIY guy with a helicopter mechanic background and that I would do repairs within my skill level and work with Mission Auto Care for items I can not handle. Jared was extremely professional and a pleasure to deal with. He had his team perform a through 36 point inspection and provided pictures of problem areas. No pressure at all in regards to having them perform the work as you get with some establishments. I'll definitely recommend this place and will be working with them for items I can't handle. Jared, thanks again brother... you're awesome!

They listed code P1326 but they didn't clearly explain that it's associated with a known Kia engine issue/recall. Instead, I was told I had to approve a $1,300 repair for radiator hoses and a coolant flush before they could look further at the engine. Not only did three other auto shops quotes come back at half the price for the same work, but they left out critical information about my engine most likely not working after those repairs. I had to google all the codes myself for that information. The price difference was concerning and they left me feeling uncomfortable about the recommendation. Most auto shops would see that there was an engine recall code, and refer me to Kia. Not try to scam a pregnant woman into paying $1300 for a car that still wouldn't run after their repairs..
