    I absolutely love and trust this business. My husband has a BMW M5 that is very expensive to maintain. Every time I've taken it to BMW for service they have these crazy prices. Then I met Bryan with Rancho Auto Service. He helped me with everything for my husbands car without charging crazy prices. They are very professional. Trustworthy and affordable. In fact, my husband wouldn't let anyone work on his car and now he will only go to Rancho Auto Service. On another note, the shop is very clean, comfortable, and just a fresh of breath air. There is a nice waiting area. I even met the gentlemen who did the oil change on my husbands car and he was very nice and respectful. He didn't look like your typical car mechanic with oil greased clothes :) Thanks to everyone at Rancho Auto Service. We appreciate you and all you do to keep our vehicles up and running. Especially with all the tips and education you constantly provide. Very helpful. Bunches of hugs. - Jenn :)

    This is the 2nd time I've turned to Jeremy and his crew at Rancho Auto to help me smog my 18 year old car. It was a bit of a drive from my new residence, but so worth my time. He even suggested I find their coupon online before writing me up. This place is one that I have confidence in. A suggestion would be to call for an appointment, as they can get busy. Thanks guys!

They switched owners but they still offer the same great customer service as before. All the employees are knowledgeable. Corinna helped over the phone and with registration. The manager Sam helped as well. I was also helped by another female staff member who helped me with my smog I didn't catch her name. She was polite and had to explain to me that I had to drive 50 miles more to be qualified for the smog test. There was an extra fee for this. You have to pay for the smog and registration separately. You have to pay extra to get your registration here but to me it's worth it. You get it right away and don't have to wait for it in the mail.

Also wanted the oil changed and had some brake noise in the rear of the car. Called the next day and was told it was ready. No check engine light, hurray! Bill was $390.00, HUH, asked what for? said that they had to replace a hose by the charcoal canister. Figured $75 for the oil change, maybe $150 for the brake repair (they only cleaned the back brakes). So with the $150 for the P0440 that made the hose about $65. Next day, check engine light again. Brought it back in. Tech looked under the car and in the engine compartment. Said that he tightened a couple of connectors and if the check engine light came back on it may need a new charcoal canister. Well it came back on the next day. I jacked up the car and took a look at the charcoal canister and hoses both under the hood and back. Nothing was replace or touched. I paid them to fix the P0440 code, not try. I didn't have the time or proper tools to fix it myself, if I did, I could of fixed it myself. I think that they just reset my code light and didn't even smoke test it, plus the left grease marks on my hood and floor carpet. They advertise as a smog and repair, but they don't.

They are licensed for smog check and they also provide auto repair. I come here with all of my automotive needs and have been coming here for years.

They will not charge you an arm and a leg and they will work within your budget the best they can.
