Great service... Fast and easy really friendly. Would definitely recommend!!! Changed my old 2 front tires...

Joe was the man. I had my Lexus rx 350 radiator flush done, and 2 days ago i went there again to do the transmission oil change..fair price and it was quite fast. He even offered me if he can dropped me at my office. I think Jorge was the one that did the job, hope I got his name correct. I will recommend this place..its small but reliable and you got peace of a mind. read more

I was very hesitant on going to a mechanic in Van Nuys but I was very very happily surprised by this service that Joe provided. I had my two emergency brake lights not working and I was really concerned given the time constraints. Joe had been willing to see me within 30 minutes of closing and had changed both brake lights within five minutes! Not only did he fix the problem but he did it with such professionalism and kindness that I can only start to touch the surface on why I chose to give him five stars. I HIGHLY recommend anyone in this area that needs mechanical help to go to Joe because he is not only a great mechanic but he's a great guy! read more

Let me start by saying how much I HATE mechanics...it's probably my least favorite part of life with a car (besides the 405 at rush hour...) Now, after saying that, WHY CAN'T I GIVE 10 STARS to Precision Auto?!?! Joe, the owner, and his work deserves all 10 of them. Seriously. Having an older car, finding someone who is reliable, honest and affordable is most important. Knowing that I can always count on Precision Auto for all of these things and more, keeps me feeling taken care of. And I think that's what we are all looking for when it comes to mechanics. I recommend Joe to every person I know who needs a mechanic...and even to those who don't, because I KNOW that there is no better. Try Precision Auto. I promise you won't be disappointed. read more

I wholeheartedly recommend Precision Auto! Joe & Jorge are the best auto team I have ever experienced with my car! Not knowing much about cars, I always felt uncertain and uncomfortable when having my car serviced. Are they going to take advantage of me? Then I met Joe, and all of that changed! He welcomed me with a smile and answered all of my questions. Originally, I was just looking for a place to get my smog check, but I have now been a regular customer for over two years. I would not trust anyone else with my car. When I go to Joe, I know I am getting the real deal, and I know that he is truly taking care of all of my service needs. When I need maintenance, Joe always shows me exactly what he is talking about, and he explains everything to me. Joe is friendly, honest & thorough. If he isn't there, Jorge is there to greet you with a bright smile & exceptional service. If you are lucky, you get both! I always feel at ease when I take my car for service, and I leave with peace of mind. Thank you, Joe & Jorge! read more

Quick, easy, and fairly priced smog check. Thanks Joe!

I have been coming here for years. I was sold by joe when I had a specific issue with my steering wheel shaking. I had been calling around and around places and most people just told me to bring it in and they would see what the problem was. Joe on the other hand, asked me about 5-7 questions about my issue trying to narrow it down over the phone so he could give me a price range. He did not try to bamboozle me like other auto shops. And ever since then, I will never go to another place. He's like my car guru. He actually cares about you and your vehicle! It showed when I brought it for a long overdue oil change and he expressed his disappointment of my care of vehicle. Lol. I was actually headed out of town just now. I drove over an hour out of town before realizing I had an issue and I drove my ass all the way back so I can take it to my man joe. Don't go anywhere else. HE IS THE BESSSST! read more

I used to live two miles from this place in Van Nuys. Now I come all the way from West Covina to have Joe and Jorge work on my car. They are THE BEST. read more

Just picked up my '17 Silverado and they were able to fix it my truck for half the price of the dealership and it's running great! A/C, front windshield, and brakes done in less than 24 hours read more

I used to go back and forth between getting my car repaired at the Honda Dealer and Precision Auto Clinic but since my last visit to Precision Auto. I am now a dedicated customer. A couple of things sold me on having my service only done at Precision Auto instead going to the dealership. First: Honda service center is bad a keeping records. If I go to a Honda service center one time in Van Nuys where I live and then go to a service center another time in Santa Clarita where I work. The service center in Santa Clarita will not be able to bring up the history of repairs I had done in Van Nuys. How in the world can I remember what I had done to my car since my last oil change. I would have to look up all of my past reports then present them to the service center. The Honda Service Center should have everybody's reports on the cloud that way no matter what service center you go to your vehicle history will be there. Get with the times people! Next, In all of my history of car repair I have never had the mechanic contact me after the repair to see how my car is running. THAT! is going above and beyond and that is how you keep your customers coming back. Last: (and there's probably more but I just can't think of any right now) I love how he takes pictures of the problems with your car and sends them to you. Just to let you know that he is not screwing you over. read more

Quick and cheaper than other smog centers that I checked in the Valley. Definitely coming back.

Joe never ceases to amaze me! Just smogged my car, very fast service and Joe was very informative! Thank you!!

Joe was great from start to finish. I live in Sacramento and contacted him about getting a truck that had been sitting for close to 3 years that I needed to get running and smogged. He patiently chatted with me by phone several times while we planned for a date to get the truck towed there and was always responsive when I had questions or updates. He methodically went through all the necessary checks and kept me updated on everything by text message, pictures and phone calls. He even took time out of his day to take the truck out for some freeway driving to get it ready for a smog test. Little by little he worked through the truck and eventually I got the text I had been waiting for - IT PASSED. Thank you Joe and the team at Precision Auto Clinic. A definite 5 star shop that I'd recommend to anyone! read more

I have been taking my car(s) to Joe since 2014. It is so nice to have a trusted mechanic. I have a Honda Element and since they don't make these anymore, I'm glad I found someone who is an expert on these cars. He and his crew always get my car back to me quickly, and he is great with updates. They are thorough, hardworking, very knowledgeable, and excellent at helping me find solutions for any problems I've had, whether mechanical or logistical due to not having my vehicle. The prices are also very fair. I am so grateful to this shop and all they've done for me! read more

I'm so happy I found a good mechanic Joe an old friend Thank you the co worker Jorge fixing my headlight only the right side. I'm so happy to find a good auto place near my house. I felt so comfortable to this auto place. They do a good job read more

I got the sense that Joe works honestly, and he will tell you how much things will cost without trying to upsell you. He took pictures of my car parts and explained the rationale for fixing (or not fixing) them. He was also flexible and willing to communicate through texts which worked best for me. I would definitely go back. read more

I hate having to deal with the nonsense that comes up with cars. That being said, Joe makes it easy. He assess the car diligently, helps to come up with a game plan for services if you don't want it all done at once, he's knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. His prices are fair, he does good work, and he keeps his word. That's great in my book, and all I need to be a repeat customer (which I already am...review is just overdue.) read more

The best part of Yelp is when you find these locations at the last moment I needed a smog check and Yelp came through not only with the coupon for this location that they were offering but the best service technician that was present will, go again it when it's time to do another smog check for the awesome service. read more

My car battery died in my parking garage and I needed it to be towed to a mechanic. I called Joe to see if they were still open for the day as it was late afternoon and he told me he would wait until I got there even if it was after their closing time. What a nice guy! As soon as I pulled up with my towing guy he immediately came out to greet us. You know how you just get a good feeling about a person? Joe gives you that. He's a genuinely nice person. He text me this morning to let me know the price (which was very reasonable) and told me other things that need to be fixed but wasn't pushy in the slightest. I went to pick up my car today and he even washed it for me. I will definitely be back for my car needs! Thanks so much Joe! read more

Highly recommended this business for your mechanical needs. My husband took our sons car to get everything that was wrong with it fixed. The check engine light was on and we needed to get a smog. Joe was very friendly and helpful. There was a long list of things that needed to get fixed and joe explained everything to my husband and gave us a very good price , he didn't try to swindle or con. My sons car was fixed in a couple of days just in time for his new job. I am so glad we went through precision auto it's been a week now my sons car runs as good as new and it passed smog so he was able to get his tags. read more

Joe at Precision auto Clinic is OUTSTANDING! I trust him completely to give the best service and advice. I used to let problems pile up on my car because when I would take it other place they would try to take advantage of me and I was afraid to get ripped off----not with Joe, he is the best! If I have a problem or just need maintenance or auto advice he IS THE MAN! I always feel like I get back on the road quickly, for the best prices, and with the BEST WORK! He is professional, friendly, and always gets it right. I can't say enough amazing things about Precision Auto Clinic and Joe! Absolutely THE BEST! read more

I did take my car inn for transmission and coolant change.It was a reasonable price and he also noticed that my car needed another part changed, he even sent photos of what he was talking about so I thought that was awesome to show me, not just tell me I had a part that needed to be changed.And he gave me a good deal to change it! Other mechanics in the past have told me about a problem but never have showed me.And you wonder if it's an honest mechanic not making it up So definitely recommend these guys for you're vehicles needs. read more

My cars turbo was messed up and they did an amazing job fixing it. My car runs like its brand new now. They had very friendly staff as well. The only reason I am giving four stars is because it took a week longer to fix then they had said it would and I was stuck without a car but other than that great work. read more

Fast, Reliable and Very Honest!!! The price was right and the work was done very fast and beyond my expectations... Thank you Joe, read more

I would highly recommend coming here! I needed my brakes replaced and was lucky enough to find Precision Auto Clinic. Joe was very responsive and did a great job with the inspection. Very fast and good quality service! Thanks Joe! read more

I was in need a diagnostic for my Prius 2004. So I looked up and found this place. Honestly, I'm glad I chose to go here. Although, I didn't hear pleasing news about my car, the way Joe approached it, put me at ease. Very professional and upfront about the service. He's very knowledgeable about all different types of cars. I would most definitely recommend trusting your car here. read more

Joe was super helpful. Needed my car done within one day, it was finished as promised. Got me the right parts for specific model. Will return & highly recommend read more

There are 4 really good signs to what makes a good mechanic: 1. You call them up, and instead of saying "come in, let's take a look at the car," leading to them scaring you into a possibly unnecessary repair that is VERY costly, the good mechanic will listen to what the problem is, if it's a check engine light they'll get the codes from you, and access the severity of the situation, really instead of scaring you, giving you the options and possible outcomes. 2. Knowing that price is ALWAYS an issue, no matter who you are (no one wants to go to the mechanic) they'll make an effort to keep cost down, while trying to keep cost down. 3. They'll actually show you the problem, instead of that who "you can't go inside the garage for liability reasons," BS. They will show you what's happening, explain why that's happening, and then access the severity of the situation. 4. They will follow up with you, and they will also do what they can to help you with whatever situation you're in. Joe has this in spades. To give you the story, my car had an on-and-off check engine light, and I had a code reader. I called him, told him the codes, and told him I planned to sell the vehicle 2-4 weeks from that point. He said "judging by those codes, the problem shouldn't be severe to the point that it'll effect the drive-ability and if the engine light is off and the car drives, trading it in shouldn't be a problem." Well, going forward I felt uncomfortable driving the car and it turned out it would be another 6-8 weeks before I was able to trade the car in, so I took it in. Granted, the emissions diagnostic was $90, he explained why it costs that much and that it takes awhile to test that system, thus it's purely a labor cost. He found the problem with my O2 sensor, but looked further given the symptoms my car was having. Basically, my last mechanic lied to me in saying the Purge Valve wasn't severe enough to pay attention to or repair. He showed me how it was basically deforming my gas tank and causing it to implode and constrain the amount of vapor going into my engine. Besides disconnecting the valve until the part could be replaced, he did what he could to get a very particular part the next day and repair the car as quickly as he could keeping in mind my schedule. Summing it up, what would've been a $2000 repair at the dealer, or a $1200 repair at a franchise auto shop, ended up costing me around $800. I wasn't happy that it cost that much, but looking at what it could've been had I been stupid enough not to call Joe's shop, it could've been WAY worse. He even gave me great tips on cars that have a great maintenance record for future cars, knowing that the goal for ANY driver is to keep the car out of the shop as much as possible. Bottom line, if you want a cheap mechanic, that doesn't really exist. Parts cost money, the service of the mechanic costs money. It's the nature of the beast. Joe at Precision Auto Clinic is exactly what any driver would want: honest, has integrity, understanding and works with his customers rather than against. On an economic standpoint, he is also someone who understands the need and balance for doing the job right and keeping the cost down as much as possible. I can't recommend him enough. read more

Thank you Joe for taking such good care of my car! Joe took the time to inspect my car's tires, breaks, oils and fluids and was honest with his findings. His staff did a great job and his prices were very fair! I would definitely recommend him as an honest mechanic!! read more

I had my breaks go bad last minute and Joe squeezed me in that same day. He was even nice enough to drop me off at a nearby target so I could work while I waited. While I waited he texted me a photo of the issue and his suggestion along with a quote. The quality of the work was superb and the price was fair. He even texted me the next day to check in. Great work and great guy. I will be going here from now on. read more

Joe is a fantastic mechanic. He always takes great care of both of our cars - a Prius and Honda Odessy. He works with us when our budget is tight to do only what has to be done now. I will always take our cars to Precision Auto Clinic. read more

Took my car here after having a terrible experience at CarFriend (I will never go back there again). Unlike Carfriend, the people at PAC were honest, courteous, professional and they did great work on my car at a fair price. I went in for a routine tire rotation / inspection and was informed that I needed new break pads, as mine had been dangerously worn down to almost nothing. This could have caused me a lot of expensive damage had it gone unnoticed for much longer, and the last place I went failed to notify me about this. I will definitely be taking my car here in the future. read more

Joe is kind and detailed. He got my 2005 Honda Element up to speed, cleaned the engine without me even asking, and reached out after to make sure things were running well. He's a good fella. read more

Trust in Joe! Good guys and better yet quality workmanship. I first visited Joe to get new brakes and noticed immediately the quality customer service. My brakes were done well and he explained all I needed to know. Ever since then I go to Precision Auto Clinic for all my car service needs. Call Joe! read more

Joe does fabulous work!!! If anyone wants their car treated with TLC (tender loving care) take it here!! I took my car here after my bf recommended Joe for my 30k service. Not only is the work impeccable, and they over deliver- they follow up to make sure everything was up to par and running smoothly. Take your car to Joe!!! Love the work and great customer service!!! read more

I work nearby so dropped my car off here for an oil and filter change. They got it done the same day for a good price. They also managed to change the engine clutch actuator fluid on my Kia Niro plug-in hybrid which is a somewhat bizarre maintenance item that is only need in plug in hybrid cars that have a clutch to switch between electric and hybrid mode. They seem great! Would recommend! read more

I don't take my car anywhere else, Joe is the best. He does the best work and only sells you what you need and nothing else. If you need a good honest mechanic, this is the place! read more

My husband swears by Joe. After having one bad experience with an employee he asked me to give it one more try with Joe himself when my car needed an oil change. Knowing that he has excellent reviews I gave it one more go and he was able to get me in, change my car oil, and make recommendations for what my car needs. My car runs smoother and I will be coming back for my regular maintenance. Sometimes we may deal with one bad apple but it doesn't mean the business isn't excellent at what they do. Thank you again Joe! read more

The dealership we usually take our vehicle to get serviced advised us that the front brakes needed to be replaced as well as the brake rotors machined. I had no problem with that, as I knew the brakes had not been changed in a while. The problem I had was the expense of the repair was way too much. No wonder they call them stealerships. We looked around on the internet and came across Precision's Yelp site. The reviews were positive, so we decided to call them up. We spoke to Joe, who was professional and polite. He gave us a quote MUCH LESS expensive than the dealership, and a he said we could bring the vehicle in right away. I brought the vehicle in the next morning, and was greeted by Joe who took a look at the brakes and said he could have it done in a couple hours. I agreed, came back in a couple hours and the repair had been completed. I was really impressed with the professionalism of this place. I was quoted a fair price, the work was done when they said it would be done, and the brakes work great. What really impressed me the most was the follow-up call from Joe asking how the car was running. Who does that anymore? I will definitely be bringing my vehicles to this place when needed. read more

Joe is outstanding! Moving always generates stress at finding new providers, especially for auto service, which can be dodgy at times. Joe is up-front, honest, and always willing to treat you honestly and give you the information you need to make an informed decision. Their work is fast and sound and I will be recommending Precision Auto Clinic to any family or friends who need auto work done. Thanks Joe! read more
