Wonderful service experience. Took my 2011 BMW 535i to have an oil service which included an overall inspection. A couple of minor items were identified but the kicker was me being made aware that my brake pads had more life left than the onboard service indicator indicated so it was reset saving me potentially hundreds of dollars in unnecessary work in the near future. Very honest, professional and sensibly priced service center. Highly recommended. read more

AMAZING!! Me and my fiance were traveling and our BMW alternator went out and battery drained till the car finally was not drivable.. got towed to BMW dealership and for parts and labor and Diagnostic test they wanted $1,379 ..... needless to say for a alternator..THATS CRAZY!! Well thank you yelp for helping us find precision... they were so nice and got us the part and installed it that day for $508. Also we had a reoccurring break light that kept burning out that we asked if he could look at while it was there. They had experience with a design defect that many 323i models have and rerouted the wire on the spot. I highly recommend this place. And if precision is reading this....Thank you! read more

Took the BMW In after a stall. These people are straight shooters, and can be trusted. Very professional and honest. Fair pricing and timely repairs. read more

I drive an Audi and brought it to Precision to change my fuel filter. The service in this shop is good starting from customer service to quality of the work. I would recommend them. read more

This has to be the best experience I have had at a car repair business in a long time. Danny the owner went out of his way to do our repair and was helpful in diagnosing other problems my car is having. I highly recommend this business and you will feel immediate confidence with them. Would highly recommend this shop for repairs. We have found a new shop for our repairs! read more

I broke down on a Saturday night driving on Highway 5 between San Francisco and Los Angeles. The closest city where we could get a rental car to get the family home safe was Bakersfield, so we called AAA and got towed there. Since my Volkswagen Eurovan wasn't going anywhere until repaired, I needed to find a good shop in Bakersfield that could do the work. Fortunately, I found Precision Automotive on Yelp and we dropped the van off in their parking lot that night with a note that I would be back Monday when they opened to get the service started. I left a message and Bill and Liz, the owners, called me twice on Monday morning on my drive back to Bakersfield to make sure they had all the information they needed to get the repair started ASAP. In addition to the repair, I asked Bill to check for anything else that needed attention. That morning, while I waited, they did a thorough check on all engine components and gave me a comprehensive list of recommendations with a clear breakdown of parts and labor costs. There were no items that I didn't expect or suspected might not be necessary. I've had a few other local mechanics in Los Angeles tell me I needed things which I knew I didn't. Not Bill. He and his team are first class, honest, open, and happy to spend a moment discussing the repairs and even taking the time to explain how to perform some simpler repairs myself. All work was done with a high level of quality, in a timely manner, and any minor additional costs were promptly communicated to make sure I approved before they performed the work. When complete, not only was my van running great, but it was looking great as well since they had cleaned both outside and inside the car. Bill helped me return my rental car to the Bakersfield airport (about 30 miles round trip back to his shop) and I was on my way home. I can't recommend Precision Automotive enough. If I am ever back in Bakersfield and need anything for my van, I am stopping there. I wish they were located in Los Angeles- I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

I love coming to Precision Automotive for them to take care of my car. It's not easy to work on an Audi A8L, and it definitely isn't easy going to the dealer with Audi's astronomical prices! Some work I can do myself, but I'd rather take it to a professional for more difficult things. This is the only place in town that I would trust with my vehicle with and I am glad that I have been able to give these wonderful people my business over the past few months. Bill and Liz are very warm and welcoming and their shop is very clean. Bill and his guys are true Audi experts in my eyes, and have helped to keep my transporter A8 at 187000 miles running like new. Their prices are definitely unbeatable anywhere and I will continue to come to them in the near and far future! I recommend them to any VW/Audi/Foreign car owner or just any regular car in general. Very honest and caring people! Take care! read more

I had a great experience with precision automotive, I was a little late for my behind the wheel and my brake light wasn't working, the man working there helped me find a bulb in his shop that fit my car. He saved the day. read more

I highly recommend Precision Automotive. They got us in and out when they said they would. They fixed our problem, gave us great advise and saved us a lot of money! I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

Great automotive shop with friendly staff and service you can trust. I've been taking my vehicles here since they opened back in 2014 for everything except warranty work which the dealer had to do. I'm on my second Mercedes AMG and totally trust them to maintain this precision beast! I recommend anyone to do the same unless you want to pay for overpriced oil changes and other general service from the dealerships. You can trust that if it's a job that can't do correctly they will tell you up front that it needs to be taken somewhere that can properly address your problem. They won't BS or overcharge you which is hard to find these days. I don't like to cut corners when repaires are needed and I trust these guys to order factory or better than factory parts. I highly recommend this shop for any of your automotive needs, they will take care of you! read more

Bill was upfront and clear about what was wrong with my Mini and how much it would cost. He even prioritized the repairs in relation to my car's needs. I got a quote, the repairs and they even washed my car and got it back to me within two days. I'll definitely back for all future maintenance. read more

I took my car elsewhere to get a cooling system problem fixed. Elsewhere mis-diagnosed the problem. Their repair did not fix anything. Attempt 2 also a mis-diagnosis. Also did not fix anything. Their third diagnosis was outrageous. I went to Precision. They found the problem, performed a repair, not needing to replace any expensive parts. They also re-adjusted the car's computer (something elsewhere also missed) The car has never run better. My highest recommendation. read more

I just picked up my car from Precision - it is so wonderful to find a first class automotive shop in Bakersfield. William and Liz, the owners, were extremely professional, kind and honest. I would highly recommend them to everyone needing Automotive repairs! Thank you for your prompt courteous service. read more

Great service. I usually try to do all my repairs myself so if I take my car to the shop I have an idea what is wrong. Bill and his crew handled my issue on my Bmw quickly, efficiently, and at a fair price. When a last minute problem popped up he offered the option of a used part with warranty to get my vehicle done in a day. I will definitely use this shop again for all 3 of my vehicles. read more

Why would I spend two hours driving to Bakersfield for a car repair? Read to the end... Our Mercedes-Benz experienced a well-known problem with the balance shaft sprocket, a problem which requires engine removal for repair. I have 3 local independent shops (with excellent reputations) and a Mercedes dealer in my area. All of them quoted the job, at rates I thought were excessive. A little research showed that this same repair was being done elsewhere for substantially less money. My statewide search ended at Precision Automotive, a shop with excellent reviews and a warranty twice that offered by my local shops. And the price was around HALF what my local shops were quoting! Liz and Bill were patient, careful to explain, and respectful of my knowledge and experience. Most luxury shop owners depend on the ignorance and affluence of their customers, and charge accordingly. That's not the case here. On all occasions they spent the time it took to make sure I was well informed. The car was delivered running perfectly, and the entire experience at Precision left us very satisfied. Why would I drive to Bakersfield for a car repair? Because it's worth it... read more

Honest, fair prices, help me a lot with my mini Cooper love liz and bill. They definitely take care of my car, I always take it to them because they are wonderful. read more

This is the only auto repair shop I trust to take my cars. They're straight shooters and don't try to fix stuff that isn't broken. The owner is there working alongside his other qualified mechanics, not sitting behind a desk, making sure the work they do on your car is the best. read more

I was stranded in Bakersfield on my way home to Anaheim and Precision Automotive saved the day. My car was constantly stalling on the highway so I felt that it wasn't safe for me to attempt to drive home especially on the grapevine. Precision Auto took a look at my car and determined that the problem was the speed sensor. They were able to fix the problem and get my car back on the road the same day I took it in. These guys here are extremely knowledgeable and the pricing is fair. If I lived in Bakersfield this would definitely be go to auto shop. read more

I can't say enough good things about this establishment. Often times the perception of the automotive industry/mechanics is that of mistrust. This business had restored my faith. Not only did they properly diagnose my problem for a fair fee but also went to bat for me regarding my certified pre-owned warranty and got the results I was hoping for. I HIGHLY recommend Bill and Rob and this honest business. They will be our automotive repair shop from now on. Christy Burke read more

Excellent work and very professional. Our 2002 Camry had 216,000 miles on it and they put another engine in it. It only took a week to complete the work and my car runs like it is brand new. We are so thankful to have found a truly honest and dependable mechanic. read more

This was my first experience with Bill and Rob and Liz of Precision Auto and I am happy to say that my 2008 Jaguar XJ has found its go-to place when it's not feeling well. Liz set up my appointment and they were expecting me when I arrived. Bill and Rob diagnosed the problem with the air springs, shopped around to get me the best quality and price on the parts, and spent quite a bit of time on the phone haggling with my warranty company to make sure that I only had to pay my deductible. I am very grateful to have found a mechanic shop that I can trust and rely on. read more

i took my husband's bmw 745i in to have a headlight repaired. this company took 3 weeks to repair it, kept ordering pieces that turned out to be the wrong piece. i had to go online and order the piece myself and take it to them to install, which inconvenienced me by not having our 2nd vehicle for so long. i finally pick my car up, and turns out they broke the latch to pop the hood, and didn't even inform me! it took for me to call them and confront them for them to tell me, oh yeah its broken, you just have to use a plier to pull the cord to open it! when i took it to them the latch worked perfectly fine! i then took it back to them to repair what they broke and they tell me they're going to charge me almost $500 to repair it!! bottom line we will never use this auto repair shop again they fixed one problem and cost me another thats initially more than the problem i started with!!! be careful with this company before taking your vehicle to them!! signed and angry wife!! read more

I have used several mechanics in the past, and I can say that they are, hands down, the best I've ever encountered. Bill will take the time to explain what needs to be done and will do exactly what he promises. When he gives you a quote, THAT is what you will pay. How refreshing. A mechanic who doesn't try to sell you stuff you don't need and is happy to have you as a customer. What? Precision Auto should be in all the top lists of places to do business with. Even if I moved out of the state of California, I would ship my car to Precision Auto for service. They are that good. I highly recommend Precision Auto to anyone who wants auto service done right the first time. read more

My hubby took our CHEVY Trailblazer here after calling around for quotes. While this shop specializes in European cars, they were willing to work on ours. We worried that they would be the most expensive given their specialty. The exhaust manifold was cracked big time and needed to be replaced. Surprisingly they offered the best quote in the area. They were in constant communication with us on the status of our vehicle. They parked our vehicle inside for the night so no one would break into it, since it had to stay overnight. They even replaced our low beam headlight bulbs bc I had bought them but was having a hard time removing the front grill to change them. When we picked up our vehicle, we noticed that even washed it for me!!! That was so unexpected and kind of them! And the cherry on the top was that the total charge was less than the quote, phew! I highly recommend these guys, I'll be back for sure. read more

Great place! Bill and the other mechanic were very friendly and knowledgable. I did a used car inspection here yesterday, and they were able to assess various different concerns and gave me their recommendations on buying the car. If I was local, I definitely would consider using them in the future. read more

I recently moved to Bakersfield and needed to get my car worked on because it wouldn't pass smog. I had taken it to at least 4 different shops each shop told me that something different was wrong with my car. Precision Automotive refused to give up and helped me fix the problem, pass smog and be on my way. Liz, Bill and Rob were friendly and professional. It's comforting to know that there are honest people who truly want to help. read more

I thought I had finally found a place to bring my car instead of driving all the way to Temecula. I have been highly disappointed by car services, customer service in Bakersfield, CA. All I can do is shake my head. Although my experience was long, drawn out with a last minute needed oil change that lead to more work that was needed I had a pleasant experience. It was welcoming and inviting and family ran which made it better. I had to leave my car for more service and they got me an uber home, I was totally excited. They called me back and told me that the originally issue was not the case and they found the problem and I said to handle it. My hours are crazy so I needed time so that my car could get picked up. Well I didn't get a call for payment and today their service advisor called me and told me I needed to get my car today. I waited for a call for payment yesterday and I got nothing. So telling me I have no choice to get my car today, I am left to say wtf? Bill came on the phone and tried to reason with me. I'm not only at work but I'm trying to think of great now where the hell do I bring my car now ? I'm handing stuff at work and trying to tell them to just leave my car with the keys hidden and they tell me theft is high, so my blood is boiling inside. Bill says they will drop the car off into my drive way. I was so shocked. Still mad I didn't want to accept it but I have no choice knowing so little people here in Bakersfield. So I have to think about my car services but I would say they do go above and beyond. read more

Very welcoming. Fast and efficient. Answered any questions and helped with a couple other issues my car was having. Will be recommending to friends and family. Thank you! read more
