I had a great experience with Parkside Motorwerx. After Toyota told me my ball joints and brakes needed replacing, I took the report to Hung at Parkside Paint (who previously replaced my bumper and installed a hitch for me, great work every time). Hung recommended Ron at Parkside Motorwerx next door. Ron fixed my ball joints quickly and professionally, and he was extremely honest. He told me my brakes did not need to be replaced yet and I could get another 10,000 miles out of them, no upselling. He also kept me updated and charged me way less than Toyota's quote. Honest, skilled, and fair pricing. Highly recommend! read more

Can't even help me to fix my 2013 Mini cooper s and I asked what kind of work can they do for my bmw and these guys just sucks not answering questions that I have I'm glad they don't do jobs for these cars and they lie about auto repairs they only do JDM and not so much for BMWs at all I'm not happy that they don't do engine works at all even they posted that and they don't want to take the job and I'm willing to pay for the price and I have to go long distance to work and this is just right by my house too.. this is a horrible place to waste time to make appointments ands phone calls sucks never called back.. read more

Straightforward estimates and workmanship was top notch. Pricing is lower than dealer, and generally a more honest transaction.

Why is Parkside Motorwerx my top go-to mechanic?! Excellent service. Honest prices. Quick turnaround. Great communication. Im a simple guy and I have simple needs. PS Motorwerx meets all my needs. Highly recommended! Pro tip: Parking is difficult in the area, but if you need to get serviced, just pull right into the driveway of the garage. read more

Took my wife's Lexus RX350 F Sport here for rotors and brakes to be replaced. I had an amazing experience. Ronald and his team were super friendly and accommodating, even with their busy schedule they took me in. The pricing given by Ronald was very competitive, but what really stood out was the quality of their work and attention to detail. Honestly, it beats what you'd get at the dealer. Especially when the dealer price gouged us to no end. Turnaround was within their time frame and communication was great. Highly recommended for any maintenance or repair needs! read more

These guys really are the best! I've taken my cars here for over 5 years and never had a problem. Super honest, never will upsell you any work that isn't needed, great service quality and always will call you and discuss their analysis before they start any work. Really affordable prices compared to the dealership and much better customer service. read more

Came in on a Monday at 9am with a damaged side mirror (mirror had popped off from the housing). Sam was pulling in another customers car but accommodated me right away and was able to get my mirror fixed up in 5 minutes. Would definitely recommend and will keep in mind for future service needs. read more

We were staying in the Outer Sunset and had some car issues. So fortunate that Parkside Motorwerx was right around the corner. Attentive service, great pricing, all with a smile. No one likes having to deal with car issues while traveling, but PM took the worry out of it. They'd definitely be my regular shop if I lived in the Sunset. read more

Alternator , Brakes, superb service from Ron & Sam. Fair prices. We take our cars nowhere else !

I came in with a door issue. Sam helped me out right on the spot. He went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of, and gave me some really good advice. This is the only place I would take my car. Personal attention, no games, super fair, One million stars, Thanks Sam. read more

This is a great neighborhood spot! Sam is helpful and accommodating for drop-in repairs. Thumb's up!

This place is fantastic, I went to them after Nissan tried to get me to pay for repairs and maintenance that should've been done under my seven year extended warranty through Nissan. They did an excellent job and did the repairs for what I needed to have done and I will continue to have my service & maintenance done here at Parkside Motorwerx! The value you get here is excellent! read more

This shop is local to me and based on the positive reviews I decided to give them a try. I saw another review mentioning they recently got an alignment rack, so I took one of my cars in to get aligned. Scheduling an appointment over the phone was easy, drop-off and pickup was easy. They explained to me over the phone and in person what they found, what was adjusted, and charged me exactly the quoted price. They did what I asked them to do and delivered within the timeframe promised. Good service. read more

I am very unhappy with this mechanic. I took my fiat to this shop and I explained to "Sam" that my car is smoking. Charged me $400 to change a gasket and clean some oil that was leaked inside. My car was not diagnosed correctly and still was smoking very badly!! The second attempt I explained it still smoking he said all the cars smoke and show me other cars inside that wasn't even smoking!! He explained the oil is more than usual and you added the oil ( since I didn't do anything to the car shows they even didn't check the oil level and quality) !! I am very unhappy and my car is still smoking badly now I have to go to another place and pay more to fix my car!! I definitely do not recommend this place because they are uneducated and just a rip off unfortunately!! read more

I scheduled an appointment here after damaging my engine shield. Sam was really helpful and direct. He showed me the damage and made a quick fix. Much appreciated! I'll definitely recommend this place to all my friends in the area. read more

I heard a quiet grinding when I stepped on my brakes. I called and spoke to Ron the owner. He was friendly and helpful. He recommended bringing the car in for a brake inspection. I was able to drop off my car the next morning. After a few hours Ron called to tell me what they found. Unfortunately, I needed new brakes, rotors and also a brake fluid flush. I think the price was reasonable. The car was ready mid afternoon. I was happy with the care and service. read more

Finding a trustworthy mechanic is like finding a hidden gem, and Parkside Motorwerx is exactly that. I've been bringing my car here for the past few years and couldn't be happier with their service. Sam and Ron are honest, knowledgeable, and never try to upsell unnecessary repairs--something I've unfortunately experienced at other shops. They take the time to explain what's going on with my car and always provide fair pricing. Whether it's routine maintenance or a more complex repair, I know I'm in good hands. I highly recommend Parkside Motorwerx to anyone looking for reliable, top-notch automotive care! read more

Sam was great helping me with a stuck hood release latch. super friendly and helpful, thanks and will definitely be back if I need any auto related issues. read more

Ron and Sam at Parkside Motorwerx have become my go to mechanics to maintain my vehicles. They are flexible, responsive, and professional. Most importantly they do really good work and treat your vehicles as their own. Recently they added an alignment rack to their shop and are now able to perform four wheel alignments. They also have a tire machine so they are your one stop shop in the neighborhood for mounting tires + alignment. read more

My break lights weren't turning off even when my car was off, so I called up Ron and Sam. They let me know I could bring it in same day. Sam then took a look and was able to fix the problem in less than 10 min. They're awesome! read more

Not much I can say about Parkside Motorwerx other than the service was 5 star. This a neighborhood gem in the Sunset. Great service, well priced, and a job well done! I made an appointment for 11 am came in around 10:35 and was greeted by Ronald, who was very friendly and professional and made my visit that much better. He made sure that my vehicle had priority. Long story short I was out of that place by 11:05. I want to thank Ronald and his staff for the great service. I look forward to doing future business with Parkside Motorwerx. read more

Parkside Motorwerx - great work! - Auto Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

Highly recommend this shop. My brakes started grinding and they were able to get me in the next morning after I called. Very personable and kind service. Transparent about recommendations and the cost up front. I'm very happy to have them in the neighborhood but would happily drive from elsewhere for their level of service. read more

This review is long overdue. The previous owner (who I trusted and was extremely reliable) waited to sell his business to the right person, and that he did. Ron has been an incredible mechanic for my car's (sigh) high needs. From diagnosing a parasitic draw to being a soundboard on how to proceed cost effectively, I really can't thank Ron enough for his over-the-top positive customer service and how much time he has spent on my car (both paid and unpaid) to get it into tip-top shape. Whenever I have one-off problems (like today my window fell down and won't go back up), I know I can call Ron and he will level with me on the best way to proceed. He doesn't sugar coat and is direct, which I really appreciate. Ron is a clear communicator, timely, reliable, and responsive. When you're there he really takes time to make sure your needs are met - and he's extremely busy, which is probably a testament to others feeling the same way. Parkside Motorwerx has also transformed into a really beautiful, clean, streamlined garage. He puts a lot of care into the space and his clients. I don't know why you'd go anywhere else. I hope he sticks around in this area for a long time to come - we're lucky to have him filling Gerry+Victor's shoes. Thanks Ron for all your help on the small and big jobs! read more

The service, quality of work and price charged for work done on my vehicle was awesome. I will definitely be recommending them to all my friends and family. Thank you again read more

Ron and his staff are the best! Brought my CRV in to get the headlight assemblies and a door checker installed. They did a fantastic job and even checked my tires if they needed air and topped off my fluids. I will be bringing in my Lexus in for its next scheduled maintenance. Truly a hidden gem in the Parkside neighborhood. read more

Ron the owner is extremely knowledgeable about cars, and the service here is impeccable. With Ron as your mechanic, your car will always be in excellent shape and he will never sell you on what you don't need. Even after I bought my new Subaru Forester a few years ago, I never went to the dealership for routine maintenance because I only trust Ron and his other shop in Twin Peaks headed by Ken with my cars. I recently had to replace my A/C condenser because it was leaking refrigerant. Ron spotted the problem right away and completed the replacement on the same day even after receiving the part late in the day from Subaru. By coincidence a few days later, I received a letter from Subaru informing me that the A/C condenser in my model year may be faulty with leakage issues, and should be replaced at a Subaru dealership free of charge, or if I previously paid for such repairs, I'd be reimbursed if the amount is similar to what a Subaru dealership in my area would charge. Since the problem was already spotted by Ron and the repairs already made, I feel very fortunate that it was Ron who handled this repair instead of a dealership. Also, I have no doubt that Ron's charges are less than a dealership's so I'm expecting full reimbursement! Thanks Ron and Ken for continuing to do great work, and always keeping your prices so reasonable for all your customers! read more

Went to this business last year for an oil change. Took 5 hours for an oil change and an air filter. This year I made an appointment 3 days in advance for an oil change and tire rotation. I arrived at 10:00am my appointment time. I was told it'd be a few hours. I questioned the length of time and was suggested that I take a walk, get a cup of coffee, "Go read a book". When I paid for the service, "Ron" the business owner informed me that his business was not an "Oil Changers". I stated"that's why I'm here, to support small independent business" read more

My car was making a rumbling noise from the front driver side when driving at low speed. I brought it to Parkside and explained the problem. they went with me on a test drive to hear the sound and told me it could be a number of issues. They said to go by process of elimination by fixing one thing at a time starting with replacing the sway bar links since that was the cheapest thing to replace in my car's suspension system. After they replaced the sway bar link, the sound went away! Great job and Thank you. read more

Ron is an amazing mechanic! I have 3 cars and I've been hunting for a replacement mechanic after the pandemic shutter a few of the spots I used to frequent. Honest, responsive and fast and sitting in his waiting area, I see the relations he has built with his long term clients. Almost scared to give Ron more business because I'm about to drop off my SUV for a major service next week! You are in good hands with Ron and his team! read more

Quick and excellent service. I had maintenance service and tire rotation. They don't upsell and prices are fair. Definitely going back there for future services. read more

Short review, These guys are just amazing. The do a great job and charge a fair price! What more can you ask for!

Parkside did a great job helping me install my catalytic converter security plates under my Prius. I was worried if I could find a shop that could help me install it because the product from Cap City Muffler didn't come with installation instructions. They figured it out for me and I'm happy that my cat is now protected from potential thieves. Thanks Parkside! read more

This is the local shop that I've been using for a few months now and have not had any issues. This is an honest shop with reasonable prices so I would highly recommend them. read more

Brought in our SUV today since it had the infamous "check engine" light. Ron diagnosed the issues, recommended the most cost efficient way forward and I had my car back the same day. It's good to know there's still an honest shop around when you need one. We'll be bringing in our cars here from now on and I recommend everyone in the Sunset as well! Seriously.... No one likes going to the dealer paying thousands upon thousands. This team here is as good as it gets. Let's help the local businesses!!! read more

Just got back from regular maintenance--oil, filters, tire rotation. Great service--from calling to make an appointment to clear dialogue and honesty. Ie asked Ron, owner, to rotate tires based on owner manual--he recommended against and gave the reasons why (safety mainly). So happy to know about this place. read more

My Mini Cooper was misfiring while I was on the freeway. I had no idea what was going on but Ron was able to fit me in the very same day I called. He explained in details on what he was going to do to test the car out and laid out the price very clearly. When I went to pick it up, he also gave me some tips on car maintenance for minis. He is definitely very knowledgeable and I will be taking my car to him from now on! read more

I came here for the first time today, and was so impressed. Everything was communicated clearly, the prices were reasonable, and I feel I can trust this place for all my future automobile needs. read more

Love this place! Ron and his team makes sure our cars are always running in the best condition. They call you to let you know what needs to be fixed and patiently explains the process. Fair prices and honest excellent service. Highly recommended! read more

I had been driving around for a while while with a funny sound coming from my car. I had been ignoring it for a while because I didn't have time to take it in but finally decided it was time to before my car died on me. I called the auto body shop that had fixed my car previously to see if they knew of any mechanic shops that I could bring my car into and they recommended Parkside Motorwerx. The owner there is super nice, friendly and professional. The bonus is that they did a great job on my car and the price was very reasonable since I had to pay out-of-pocket. Ronald fixed my car quickly knowing that I needed my car to get around and didn't have a second I highly recommend this place! read more
