I recently had my tires and brakes done by Patrick Auto Service. I had been putting both off due to finances but realized I could no longer ignore either. As a result, my car is more stable and I no longer hear that awful metal-to-metal grinding sound. This is my go-to mechanic. Ladies, as a "senior" single woman, there is no need to worry about being taking advantage of. I have been taking my 2001 Ford Mustang that has over 180,000 miles to Patrick Auto Service since 2022. They are honest, reliable and before doing any work, they thoroughly explain what they are doing and why. I will say with a high degree of certainty that my car runs better and is more reliable due to Patrick Auto Service. A special shout out to Ken and Jose. read more

See all

Service, quality, and value is amazing. Worth coming here for car service and emergency issues.

Quality auto shop, it's easy to find a good auto shop but it's hard to find a loyal one. They are a small shop so expect to wait a bit but these guys have never let me down or make me feel like I'm getting scammed. read more

These guys don't play around! Upfront, honest and great rapport with clients. H Have an old 2004 Scion that needs new tires and they quoted me a few different options and once I decided which way (types and price) I was going with, scheduled my appointment for the very next day! Dropped the car off, went up the street to get a couple donuts and a coffee. 45 minutes later Paul called to let me know the car was ready to roll. Great vibe, great team, excellent service! I'll definitely be going back. Thanks for your service read more

This place did the typical bait and switch. Took it in for one thing and left with another issue that they likely caused. Then when I call them on it they say they are too busy to look at it. Horrible experience read more

Review #074 - 2019 After touring SF, we ran low on gas and ended up here. The gas price is already about $0.20/gal higher than other locations in this area, just because it's conveniently located right off the exit. We showed up around 6:15 PM & the sun was still brightly shining out. I needed to empty my bladder really badly so I went inside to ask if I could use their bathroom. Not that I wanted to since I knew it couldn't be all that clean, but I needed to so I literally begged her and she gave me an excuse of, "we close the bathroom at 6 PM!" I mean, I'm already paying more than I need to for gas, but I can't even use their lousy bathroom? Luckily, a kind lady happened to see the sign that the cashier had just put away & she asked, "didn't your sign say that the bathroom is opened until 8 PM?" The cashier then replies with, "what sign?" "The sign I just saw you putting away from your counter a few seconds ago." So, the girl tried to be slick & show us the sign and says, "see, it says bathroom closed at 6 PM!" We both read the sign and it said, "Bathroom closed from 8 PM until 6 AM." Then she says, "Well, the manager says since I'm a small girl I can close the bathroom at 6 PM!" Such a nice manager, but I need to pee damnit! LOL She finally gave in and let me into the bathroom, which was in dire need of cleaning; but I can't complain when I had no other choice at that moment. read more

I got my front brakes done today and saved some of my hard earned money at Patrick auto service in South San Francisco across See's candies. I checked the negative reviews here and most of them are referring to chevron gas station. Come on folks! It's totally ok to give negative reviews to help others decide but make sure to leave them under the right businesses. Jeff was really nice, he even fixed my punctured tire for free and gave my dirty suv a wash. Thanks Jeff! read more

I've been taking my car to Patrick's for over a year now for both routine maintenance (flat tires and oil changes) and more substantial repairs (engine repairs). They've done a great job on all the work I've asked them to do and have been fast, thorough, and clear on the pricing. Would highly recommend! read more

It's hard to find an auto repair / mechanic that you can hand your car over to with complete faith that they will give you a totally straight answer. I have been taking to my cars to Jeff, the owner and manager of the shop for years. They have become like old friends and family to me. If you need a good, honest answer, just go see these guys. Two thumbs up. read more

Good people of Yelp, boycott this gas station. Well, that is if you value your personal safety. It was the station of last resort when my gas tank light came on. Not my usual stomping grounds but I was desperate. As soon as I got of my car (wallet and key, no phone), a huge homeless guy got right in my face and started harassing me. Not asking for money--pure disgusting sexual harassment type harassment. I quickly hopped to the other side of my pump, where a cab driver was filling his tank. "Can you help me?" I asked, "This guy is bothering me." The guy shook his head NO. I ran at top speed to the cashier kiosk (the homeless guy's cart was parked outside). I said to the attendant, "Will you please get rid of that guy? He is bothering your customers." The attendant stepped out and yelled at the guy, who pretended not to hear. The attendant yelled again. The guy ambled toward the cart -and to where I was standing. I hid in the service center behind a wall so he wouldn't see me. Several moments later, I peeped around the wall to see the guy exposing himself to another patron. I say to the attendant--I think you should call the police. Reminder--my gas light was on and the homeless guy was between me and my car, hence I was stuck there. Homeless guy finally gets his cart and harasses every patron on his way away. By this time, I'm in full panic mode---he's heading back toward my car! I beg the attendant, "Please! Call the police!" He yells at me, "Don't tell me what to do!" I yell back, " You are going to lose customers, starting with me!" I stomp out and put 4 gallons in my empty tank. I catch my breath. I walk back to the kiosk and take the attendant's picture. He threatens to call the police on me. On my way back to my car, another cab driver getting gas cat calls at me. Hence this incendiary post. Place is a sink hole. Starve it out. As soon as I figure out how to tell Chevron that their attendant at this station doesn't care about customer safety, I will. Follow up note: I attempted to file this complaint with Chevron here but couldn't get the site to accept my submission. https://www.chevronwithtechron.com/contact-us/customerServiceForm.aspx read more

Patrick Auto Service - This Chevron employee doesn't care if you get harassed by homeless people at his gas station. He should be replaced. - Auto Repair Near Me - South San Francisco, California

I had trouble with my car while driving on the freeway. Lucky, I pulled off the exit right into Chevron station which has auto service. Talked to the garage's owner regards to vehicle issues. No Problem! the issue is resolved and I be able to get back on the road the same day. These guys are quick problem solver and very knowledge of what they do. Plus, cost to fix is very reasonable. I would recommend anyone in SF to give them a shot. You won't regret it. read more

Cashier has a short change scam going on here. Here's what happened. There were no prices on some of the snacks there. I asked the cashier how much the trail mix was. He told me it was $3.50 a bag. It was actually $2.50 a bag and he lied to me about it. I bought 2 bags of trail mix and a few other snacks. He didn't give me a receipt and handed me $7.07 back in change. I told him I needed the receipt to give to my boss, who sent me there to get the snacks. As soon as I asked for the receipt he stopped and said " I gave you 9 dollars right?" I said "no, 7". He says "oops" quickly hands me my $2.00 and the receipt. When I looked at the receipt, the Trail mix was listed at $2.50 and my change due was $9.07. The cashier lied to me about the price and stole $2.00 from me. He probably makes an extra $50 a day using this scam. What makes me so disappointed is that I am pretty poor. And, I would have gotten in trouble with my boss when I went back to work for not having the correct change-Perhaps my boss would have thought ME the thief. I can't bring myself to go back to Patricks Chevron on Bayshore. read more

My best friend has been using this shop for 2 years and recently recommended them to me. They are always super nice and honest, and they will never charge you for anything you don't need worked on. If anything, they will take their dear time explaining things to you and cautioning you about how to care for your car so you don't need to go see them. As long as I live in the bay area I will never take my car anywhere else. These guys are the best. read more

If you are looking for an excellent oil change that is fast, thorough, and sharp as a tack...wait that's a CAKE song. Seriously, these guys are like family to me now. They are honest, they do all the little things like put air in your tires, fill up the windshield wiper fluid and they DON'T try to sell you other stupid services like the quick lube places always seem to do. read more

I was troubled when the outside pay system didn't function because I didn't want to go inside to pay. I asked inside for help. He claimed the system should be working. It still didn't take my card. Another customer also had to go inside to pay. So I said it wasn't nice to have broken pumps and leaving my car felt uncomfortable because of the area. Ended with me buying five dollars rather than a fill up. Later, my credit card was denied. I think attendent eported fraud to get even and messed my whole weekend.. shame... read more

If I can rate this auto repair shop a zero, I would. Jeff, the owner is dishonest, unreliable and will rip off your money by mis-diagnosing your car. read more

Very poor customer service. First I pulled up, tried to go through the pump to pay but it gave me an error message so I had to pay inside. Technology fails us sometimes, no big deal. I walk in, tell him how much I'd like and the pump number. He passes through the prompt to let me input my gas rewards number so I ask him if I can put my number in. He has to cancel the first transaction and start again all the while with this attitude like he's doing me a favor. I walk back out to my car and the pump wont work. I look at my receipt and sure enough, he charged it to the wrong pump. I walk back in and as soon as he sees me he says, you said pump 3. This ready to go answer before I'm able to say a single word tells me he knows he screwed up and he's ready to try and cover his ass. I say no, I definately said pump one. He then yells at me that I'll have to move to the other pump. Now while this isn't a difficult thing to do, nor am I incapable of going with the flow, this demanding unapologetic tone really threw me off. A simple, "Oh I'm sorry about that. Would it be ok if you mived over to the other pump?" or offered to correct it to the right pump would have gone so much farther. Never giving this place another cent. read more
