Straight forward pricing. Clear communication on expectations. I've gotten window tint, brakes, oil changes, diagnostics, and interior work done here. This is my go to spot for anything with my Audi A6. Not the cheapest, but they do great work and I appreciate the honesty from the workers regarding what's going on with my car. read more

Brought a Lexus in for repair work. Brakes not well doing plus other issues with suspension. Was quoted and received a detailed explanation of the repair process. Was able to review the issues and proceeded with the repairs. Car good as new and no issues now. This is the second car I've brought here with great results. read more

Treated my car like it was there baby. Checked in multiple times to see how it was going. And gave me honest advice that would save me a bunch of money. Chillest mechanics ever, and they do everything read more

This auto shop was the most helpful and friendly shop I've ever been to. They took great care of my car and made sure to keep me updated every step of the way. No gimmicks and no runarounds. I drive a Honda Civic, and a few weeks ago I was struck on the freeway by a broken wooden pallet that got lodged into my front grill (I know -- unbelievable!). The impact damaged my radiator and AC condenser. I was stressed trying to figure out how to afford the repairs, but the team here was incredibly understanding and worked with me. They explained different financing options, and ultimately the best route was going through my insurance due to the amount of damage. My insurance came out the next day, and the shop got started right away. They worked efficiently and had my car back on the road by the end of the week. David and his team were kind, honest, and truly helpful. I highly recommend this shop to anyone who needs work done on their car. If you stop by, ask for David -- he'll take care of you. Thank you all so much! read more

They have always helped me whenever I have car troubles and are transparent about what they need to change and how they are going to do it. I always appreciate their customer service! read more

After 4 months of driving my silent Toyota RAV4 with no music after my radio screen broke, the awesome crew at Quik Auto Center saved the day! Huge shoutout to David and the team -- super patient, helpful, and got my new Pioneer radio installed perfectly. No issues at all, just pure sound bliss. They installed everything perfectly and even stayed after close to explain the new system to me and make sure I understood everything. Now I can finally blast my Ozzy Osbourne and other tunes again. Thanks, Quik Auto -- you guys rock! read more

We had a very challenging-to-diagnose issue with our Toyota Prius. QWIK figured out the problems and guided us to the solution for one, and solved the other. The attention to our needs was terrific, and we were shocked that we were not charged more. I highly recommend them - a tow truck driver gave us their name and we are so happy that he did. The dealer would have gouged us, I suspect. read more

Had to get a few things fixed on my car and they were so great! Great prices. Would recommend this shop to anyone looking for a place to get their car looked at. read more

I've been taking my vehicles here for about ten years now for stereo and tint and within the past few years coming for auto repair and they are fair and upfront and actually have lowered my initial costs as they were able to go a less costly way to fix my vehicle and the shop manager Dave is the man looking out for all, check them out! read more

Very good service :) Very helpful as I did not know what was the issue with my car but they explained everything very thoroughly. Would recommend coming here. John and David were very nice. read more

They did a great job on my car stereo! I own a 2014 Mini Cooper S Convertible, which are tricky cars to work with. I also bought a cheap head unit off of Amazon that was barely compatible with the rest of my components (I already had an amp, sub, capacitor, etc). Yet these guys knocked it out of the park. Not only did they get everything to work, but it looks super clean and professional as well. They ran into a bunch of issues, I had to buy some extra components to make it all work, but at the end of the day I'm sitting in a car with a perfectly-working after-market car stereo. No complaints on that! And since this is a one-stop shop for all of your car needs, I got an oil change while I was there. Sweet! The staff was great, too. All really personable guys. John and Dave ran the show and walked me through the process, and Zaid and Danny did the install. Kudos to all! Needless to say, I highly recommend Quik Auto Center! read more

David was a lifesaver!!! Our daughter lives in San Diego and my husband and I are in the Bay Area. Her 2006 Audi quit on her and David and his crew got her up and running quickly and efficiently. Prices are very fair, he was honest and upfront about future repairs needed, they were in fact needed due to the age of the car. My husband understands cars well and was very happy as he could verify things. David sent pics and video so my husband could see for himself. Liz read more

I've had two great experiences with this shop, and I would highly recommend them. They were honest and transparent with their pricing, and the work was done same-day both times. Dave helped me and everybody else was great too. This is the first mechanic shop that I feel like I can trust. Thanks guys! read more

Got my car tinted, staff was great and so was the service! They gave me a great deal. Thank you so much QWIK Auto Center.

My car broke down in San Diego with loads of issues especially relating to the electric circuit. The team did a lot of work on my car for a very reasonable price, and it's definitely running smoother now! read more

Absolutely incredible experience with these guys. I needed all new brakes, rotors, and an oil change. They got me in and out crazy fast as I needed to get back to work. They gave me a fantastic quote, and also quoted me for some body work I need done at a super fair price. They were friendly, nice, and respectful. My new go to spot for my car! read more

Excellent experience today at the QWIK Auto Center. The staff were so friendly and efficient! They had a waiting area, which only needed to be utilized for 15 minutes because they were so fast to resolve my break light issue. The price was extremely fair, and they really go above and beyond. They even stopped traffic as I was leaving! Thank you for a great experience! read more

This was my second time using this company for temporary fixes with my car (my request). The first time I needed my rocker reattached and this time I needed my skid plate reattached. Each time I have used this company the communication, servicing, and pricing have been amazing. There's hardly ever a wait to get serviced and I've only had to wait an hour tops while my car was being fixed. As a 21yr old female, auto shops can be intimidating but I've worked with 4 different guys who were all very informative and friendly. Will be back again if I need more fixing in the future! read more

Ali and David here are the coolest guys ever! Very experienced and super transparent. Needed to repaint the rear bumper and it came out perfect, they matched the paint with the rest of the car perfectly with the best quality. No corners cut here they do everything they can to get the highest quality paint job for your car. They offer all kinds of auto body services, I will definitely be coming back if I ever need anything done. Thanks again Ali, David, and the qwick auto crew. read more

******READ REVIEWS FIRST***** I have been a customer of QUIK AUTO since 2022. Unfortunately, my most recent experience with the manager, Dave, left me disappointed. Throughout the process, there was a lack of transparency and communication regarding the repairs and associated costs. Some of the repairs were NOT completed as described on the invoice. When I reached out to the company to discuss reimbursement for these issues, I did not receive a response. As a result, I had to pay over $1,000 to have the repairs addressed by another shop. Finding that this company outsourced this repair leading to the issues we excperinced. In my opinion, this experience was unprofessional and frustrating. I encourage others to carefully review all available feedback and consider my experience before making a decision. I have kept documentation of my visits and communications. I hope this review helps others make an informed choice. read more

I had a very good experience with Qwik Auto-they removed all of the dark tint from the windows of my Kia Soul. They were fast, professional and very fair on their price. I checked prices on three tint removal shops and they were by far the best deal. I would highly recommend them. read more

I went without an appointment or calling ahead and still got a great service done on my car. Thank you David!

I'm always provided fast service, honest quotes, and have never had any issues with quality of work. Good communication and they do pretty much anything you'd possibly need. read more

David is our life saver. Qwik repaired our car with care and affordable price. On a Saturday afternoon, we were taking a trip to San Diego, and the engine light of our Odyssey went blinking on freeway. We were panicking cause it meant misfire of engine and we had to stop immediately. Not familiar with the area, we went to Qwik cause they were the only repair center open on the day. We didn't know them, but David won our trust with his detailed explanation, sincere attitudes, and professional skills. They fixed the problems that our previous auto center couldn't or wouldn't spend time figuring out. They charged us less hours of labor because they are good at it. It could be five hours of charging, but since they master it, they charged us less than three hours. We really appreciate their help and strongly recommend them. read more

Came for a scratched bumper and problems with our front tire, amazing service and the two gentleman there knew exactly what was needed and were efficient in fixing and repairing what needed to be done at a good price! Labor took about 3 hours but the results exceeded expectations, would recommend if needing auto body repair shop read more

I brought my new golf cart to Qwik Auto Center to install a new audio system. I was met by the general manager named David. A fast talking and friendly guy who assured me that they've done thousands of installations and would have no problem with my project. I told him what I wanted to have done and assured me it would be no problem. He also assured me that they would be starting it that very day, Saturday, and would have it done Monday. I later realized that he had probably forgotten that Monday was a holiday so I expected it done on Tuesday. I called on Tuesday to see if I could pick it up at the end of the day. He explained why when I was looking for Might be too complicated and not in my best interest, so I completely agreed to his alternate plan, basically simplifying their job dramatically. David assured me that it was almost done and he would get right back to me when it was finished. I called Wednesday and David said they were just doing the final touchups. I called Thursday. He gave me the same line of crap. I called Friday and he gave me another. "bullshit" line that it was done and they were just tightening up and cleaning up the job for me, and I could pick it up Saturday morning. To say I was aggravated with David is quite an understatement. On Saturday, one week after I left it there I took Uber to finally pick up my cart. He walked me over to the area where the cart had been worked on only to find that it was not only not done, but there were loose cables dangling out of the open dash, tools everywhere and a total disorganized mess. I absolutely exploded at David told him that he had been lying to me the entire week and I was fed up. I yelled at him and told him to finish the job, now! Standing 5 feet from me was some young man who quietly observed the entire interaction. Since I had Uber over there, I insisted they take me home. He agreed and asked the young man to do so. I apologized to the young driver for being so irate in front of him, since he had nothing to do with the dishonest and unprofessional actions of the general manager. He was quite interested in when I had to say and informed me that he was the owner's son and he was going to contact his father immediately. He and his dad then took this issue very seriously went into the shop and worked on it until about 11 o'clock at night so as to get it to me that day. I was appreciative of their commitment to rectify the situation. Unfortunately, the next day, the audio system would not work. I opened up the dash, found the loose connection and resolved it. Unfortunately, it was still a mess under there with the power amplifier loosely dangling among the wires. I then went and checked where the subwoofer was installed and found scratches on the paint of this new cart. I think it was the next day the bosses son called to check on me. I told him about the scratches. He offered to have me bring the cart in to their body shop and make it right. I asked him if David was still the general manager and he assured me he was. I explained to him that if a business is comfortable, maintaining a dishonest, fast talking bullshit artist as general manager, that I would no longer have anything to do with their business. By the way, I never got a work order or a receipt. All David had ever supplied me with a blank piece of paper where he scribbled, free hand, basic notes and dollar figures all over the paper. That was it. This actually was one of the worst business experiences I've had encountered in quite a while. I wouldn't suggest trusting them for as long as David is running the show and definitely don't recommend this business. Buyer beware. read more

had a great experience with them! very honest and communicative. explained to me exactly what the process was and what u needed

I was unsatisfied with my tint job so I took it back and they are going to fix it. They said they need a receipt which got lost during the last transaction but they will take care of me anyway. Nice people read more

My Toyota engine was misfiring for a while and I tried to get it fixed at two different locations before a friend recommended Qwik Auto Center. I brought my car here on a Saturday afternoon and they had it back working better than before within 2.5 hours. Not to mention they were less than half the price of other quotes I had for the same repairs. I was in contact with Dave who is extremely knowledgeable and you can tell he has a passion for what he does. Friendly staff and excellent service, I finally have a go-to mechanic I can trust and I will be back here with any future auto repair needs. read more

Unfortunately the following Monday as I was driving to work the front hubcap fell off... I contacted them to let them know and while they were helpful at first, then came back with 'we never took that hubcap off' firstly this is the one wheel I was convinced was making the noise because of the brakes and secondly it's a bit of a coincidence that after having my car for 3 years this would happen 2 days after I bring it in. I ended up having to buy a new hubcap costing $35 so any money I saved here was spent on buying a new hubcap. read more

They do the best tint an sound system I've had! Very pleased , definitely recommend this place! Plus they always explain an give you the best option for your needs. Thanks guys! Jarrod D. read more

Just tried leaving a review and it was long and it got erased for some reason. Instead of me re writing it all gonna get to the point. I paid a thousand dollars to get a peticular certain sound fix in my van in the rear end. They heard other sounds I guess and fixed those instead. Thought they were awesome people at first and was goi g to give them repeat business but but not goi g to now I wanted a certain sound fixed and they fixed other sounds plain and simple. I know this review will get a reply back from them trying to justify what they did. But I wanted a sound fixed and that particular sound is still there. DO NOT GO HERE read more
