I dropped the car off at the shop, placed me key in the drop box with a note. I received a friendly upbeat text at 745 AM, with a possible diagnosis and estimate.

As a single woman this process was stressful and their light nature, combined with humor was a breath of fresh air. The total cost was less than anticipated and as a AAA member I got additional 10 percent off. I now consider them family and will bring them all my auto needs.

She explained clearly why each service was important, which I really appreciated. As a woman, car service places don't always make you feel respected or fully informed, and sometimes it can feel like people are just trying to take your money. That was not the case here. Hector and Crystal were honest, patient, and genuinely caring. Hector even helped me reset all of my sensors, and they were able to locate a nail in my tire after I mentioned my tire sensor kept going off but I couldn't find the problem. Their customer service goes above and beyond, and I'm always thankful for their help. This is the location my family will continue to trust and return to.

Not sure I agree, but I want a good shop that I can trust. So far, I have a bill of just under $2000. I truly hope the work is consistent with the price. Customer service is very fair. I would just say get pricing up front and make sure you know the prices from a dealer if going to get work on foreign cars. One acknowledgement is their desire to make sure I understood the charges and to follow through with showing me what they repaired. I appreciated the questions and the customer service. The price was still a little high but it was done and a warranty was included.

Orozco's…read morewasn't my first choice; I have a 1984 Toyota Van, you see, and I live in Eagle Rock, so I hadn't even heard of them. I had a very complicated electrical problem, and Orozco didn't hesitate to take the time to solve the issue. I met with the mechanic working on the van; he was familiar with older Toyotas and was able to point out the issue with just a pre-work inspection. I must also say that although it took them longer than we had initially agreed to, they were more than willing to stick to the prior deal, and I was not charged. I am going to be bringing my 2002 Subaru Forester Sport Utility to them to get some kinks out that I'm experiencing. I now have a favorite mechanic, who's fast, honest, and friendly! No matter how far away you are, Orozcos is worth your time, and I can guarantee that after speaking with a few of the mechanics and being in constant communication with the managers, your car will be in the best of hands. Thank you, Orozcos! Cheers, Odinn

They responded quickly, were courteous, and didn't try to tack on a diagnostic fee just to take a look. When I dropped off the car, the technician walked me through their process, starting with the bulbs before moving into any potential electrical issues (which I really appreciated.) It ended up being the simplest fix: both bulbs were burned out. They had everything replaced within a few hours. Fair pricing, clear communication, and no upselling. I'll definitely be back for future repairs. Side note- they have the cutest shop kitten. ‍

I had been here once before and had a great experience, so when my car's AT light went on…read moreunexpectedly one night I called them first thing the next morning to see if they could get it in. They said they could and gave me a timeline for working on the vehicle that matched my needs. While I appreciate them getting me in on short notice, they consistently over-promised and under-delivered on when they would be able to work on my vehicle. They were able to diagnose a couple of leaks that they thought were the problem and sent me photos to show me what they were looking at. In the past when I've left my car at this shop for work they sent over a detailed estimate before starting the work, but this time I only received the verbal estimate over the phone. I drive an old car, which isn't worth much, and I did let the person know that I wasn't interested in investing more in repairs than the vehicle is worth. As it was, the two leaks were just over $1K to fix, and I OK'd the work to begin. After fixing the first two leaks, they then came back and told me there was a third leak, which would require a more major repair to the transmission and they would have to have their transmission person (who wasn't there that weekend) send me an estimate the next day. While I understand that it's plausible that the third leak wasn't something they could have originally diagnosed, it felt a bit weird that the photo they used to show me the leak was one of the original photos they had sent before starting any work. If the leak was visible in that photo, I'm unclear why they couldn't have diagnosed it earlier. The added cost of this additional repair definitely tips the scales of worth-it/not-worth-it to repair vs replace this car, so I wish I had had all the information before deciding to make the initial repairs. Unfortunately, despite stabilizing the ATF level, fixing the leaks did not resolve the transmission issue. On a smaller scale, they didn't check or top up the tire pressure, which most mechanics I've gone to have done as a courtesy when working on my vehicle. The day after I picked up my car the tire pressure light went on, and when I checked my tires all four of them had low pressure. It's a small thing, but especially when dealing with expensive mechanical items like cars, the small things matter a lot in creating a sense of security and trust with your mechanic. They did mention that they were under new management since the last time I had been in, which may account for the different experiences.

Brought my car back for a fix. A day later the leak was still there. They tell me that it's because of a dent in my oil pan so I took it to a mechanic for a diagnostic. The mechanic tells me that during the oil change these guys managed to strip the closure and sealed it with epoxy in order to prevent any leak. That means the next time I get my oil changed, the cost will be $550 as I get a new oil pan because these guys couldn't take the time to do the job carefully. Maybe in a pinch you could go on ahead to this spot but it really would be better to just go to a garage that will do a change properly.
