Love these guys. As hard as it's to believe, it never feels like they're in it for the money. Always give discounts, after the fact. There's a reason they're always busy. read more

These people are great. I was having issues with my back light and I just stopped to ask if they could help me replace the bulb with one I had bought from the auto store a couple stores down. They came out to the street unscrewed the bulb that was in. Screwed my new one in and it worked! I asked them how much, he said no charge. Super super nice, especially since multiple people had walked by and watched me struggle with it. No one offered any assistance. This place is great! read more

I notice I had a flat after work ready to go home after a long day and they were the only ones still open when I got off. When I got there they were just about to close and the crew were all headed out and the owner was nice enough to help me plug my tire. After rushing there worrying about going home across the bay on a slow leaking tire, they saved me and my wife. Thanks Rex Auto Services! read more

Rex auto service is an honest shop, which is hard to find sometimes, and they are very responsive. I went to take my car for a transmission problem. I thought I needed two parts that would end up costing $800+ . Instead they found the actual problem which was a leak and they fixed it up. Saved me $600. This shop is now my go to for repairs or anything car related. read more

Honesty is the best policy! Been here twice, once to get my wheel hub assembly done and once to get a tune-up. I recently bought a new car and thought it'll be a good idea to get a tune up since I had to take it to LA (what else do you do when you buy a new car right??). Well I took it here and it turned out that I didn't need a tune up! Scott was very helpful and, most importantly, HONEST. He told me the car is in good shape and to return all the crap I bought for the tune up. He could of easily lied to me and say that I needed the tune up, plus whatever else, but he was honest and let me know it was okay. There's nothing more I (and I think any human) appreciates more than honesty. Oh and on top of that, he fixed my window! What service! Because of this, I will be coming here from here on in and recommending everyone I know to the place. In all, thank you for your honesty because as we all know, it's hard to find in our everyday lives (at least when it comes to auto shops). read more

Just wanted to join in the echoing of how awesome my experience was at Rex's Garage. I brought my disabled car in late Tuesday night and Scott and Jackie were both agreeable to staying open late so I can tow in my crippled ride. They did their best to fix my car (turned out to be an immobilizer problem that only the damned dealer can take care of via new, super expensive programmed keys). They were good about answering my constant frantic phone calls and deserve the solid reputation they have in the community. I don't ever want to have to bring my car back in for mechanical issues, but when I inevitably must, I'll bring back down here to Rex's on Taraval. This is only my second yelp review, so that means something when a business motivates me to write something about them. Side note: I skimmed the other reviews; yeah there are "intense looking Asian guys smoking outside," but hell I'm an intense looking Asian guy who smokes too and I do counseling and therapy for a living. These guys are good and fair- a high standard anywhere. =D read more

I spotted Rex's a couple shops down from Kragen's where I was picking up a new bulb for my rear brake light. Though most people said it was easy enough to replace myself I didn't think I had the skills so I figured I'd see if the auto shop would do it for me. There were a bunch of intimidating Asian guys standing outside giving intense looks as they smoked their cigarettes. I was intimidated at first but I stepped inside the waiting area and asked for help and the guy on the other side of the counter said was helpful and said, sure, bring your car on over. I drove up and it took him literally 3 minutes to change out the bulb. I offered to pay but he smiled and said not to worry about it. It kind of made my day that they were nice enough to help me out. And then I figured, the auto garage is close enough to where I live so I'll be back for an oil change. Cheers Rex's staffers, good job. read more

FINALLY found a good honest mechanic. Jackie and his team are straight forward, they get the job done and don't charge you an arm and a leg. I've gone in last minute with random stuff, and he'll always just come out take a look with no nonsense. Thank you Rex Auto! read more

Rex's great reviews are greatly deserved. Got my Jeep in on a Thursday about one. Jackie called me on Friday afternoon that it was ready to be picked up with a new water pump and change of oil, tires filled, looking like a charm. Thank you, Rex Team! Jackie is the nicest guy. Whenever the Jeep needs something, Rex is where we'll go. read more

Left all 5/5 stars in all review platforms, because they are 5/5 stars services, with a good attitude, service, and honesty. Asked 4 different auto service shops, Rex is the only place who active listened and sat with me to test drive the car with me, found the problem, and gave me the quote. And the price is the best and reasonable comparing to other shops. Rex is the best! read more

Had a problem with my radiator. They didn't try and tell me I needed a new radiator Or anything else ridiculously expensive. They were fair priced and the car was ready when they said it would be. I would use them again. read more

These guys are awesome. My car died dude to an old coolant hose just 16 blocks away from this place. I called in advance and even got a little help pushing my car from the intersection. They had me up and running in 45 minutes for $40 total. It was really great seeing another MR2 parked out front. Fast service, great rate. This is my new mechanic. PS. they have a street fighter arcade game! read more

I've been going to Rex for auto services since 2012. The service is great and the pricing is fair - unlike other places that quoted me an arm and a leg. My go to guy there is Jackie. Highly recommended. read more

Amazing auto shop always honest and good people! Sally is really great always informative and considerate. I'll always refer others and take my car there as long as I live here read more

This place is great ! Jacky is especially helpful. I just got a car after 9 years of not having one. I was nervous about the whole thing, especially having bought an older vehicle. But Jacky took the time to show me what was wrong, shinning his flashlight into the engine and explaining how I could tell certain parts were failing and why it needed to be done. I walked out spending half the estimated amount he quoted me. They know how to get the work done well and efficiently. I'm so happy I stumbled upon such a talented, trustworthy, and affordable mechanic. read more

I feel for these guys. People came in every 10 minutes with rolling wreaks looking to squeeze a few more years out and these guys are very patient and polite when dealing with them. The work I had done was pretty simple(break shoe replacement), so I only had to wait like 20 mins. The price was reasonable. read more

The receptionist has poor attitude, poor communication skills and zero patience. Doesn't even have a basic manner. No greeting when the customer walked in. Poor customer service! *This review only regard to the poor service attitude that preformed from the receptionist. There is no opinion about their mechanic! read more

This is without a doubt the BEST auto repair shop I've ever visited. We live two blocks away and they have been looking after our 10 year old Jetta for the last 6 years. I've taken it in with random issues many times and had them fix the issue free of charge. I've shown up at 10:00 a.m. on a Saturday needing my breaks replaced and they got the car back to us by 3:00 on the same day. Perfect service. They are simply amazing with fantastic prices. Seriously, the best I've ever seen. They are fast, accommodating, high quality, and cheap. What else could you want from your mechanic? read more

My buddy got an oil change there and they didn't screw the but back on properly and that almost destroyed his entire motor. I once went there to get an oil change and when I checked out my dip-stick they barely filled it up. I KNOW IT'S CHEAPER THAN OTHER PLACES, but trust me, pay the extra 30 and go somewhere else. read more

really nice owner！I have been to this place couple time. Every time the owner gave me fair price, and excellent service. Best Auto service store in this area! read more

I have a Nissan and I'm told that I drive that thing more like a tank...so too often, it needs some TLC. When the thing needs TLC, I head straight to Jacky's place. He's the man! Jacky and his crew are completely trustworthy and great mechanics. read more

I was not able to get work done here. The sign on the shop says it opens at 9:30. I waited until 10. Finally the owner came and was pretty hostile about being late. I had originally come at 8:30 because his answering machine does not leave store hours and I assumed he would be open since most auto shops open early. So then I had to come back at 9:30 and still had to wait. I lost a morning of work because of this. The guy was rude. read more

I called in to inquire about their oil change because I just moved in that area. The man I spoke with said we can walk in anytime for an oil change it's quick but said not to come at all because they are busy. Zero professionalism. read more

Never go here. By far the worst customer experience and the rudest people I've ever had to deal with. To make matters worse, they were b*tching about me in Cantonese thinking I didn't understand. Little did they know I'm half Asian. read more

Dude ! Saved my bacon ! After a day of trials and tribulations it's nice to find the people that get it done !! Thank Y'all there at Rex for the good advice ! read more

5+ stars. No nonsense shop. We called and dropped in the same day. They fixed a nail in tire for less than 15min. The price is super reasonable. Highly recommended. read more

Brought for transmission repair on an ML320 and Jackie did a good job. Brought back for an unrelated service, he diagnosed free of charge. Knowledgable. He is friendly and will spend the time without charging exhorbitant prices. A keeper! read more

Rex Auto Services - Election Year! - Auto Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

Had burnt out headlight. Pulled in. They took me on the spot. Checked ALL my lights. Quoted me $35. In 10 minutes I was out of there with new working headlight. Previously went there cuz my hood wouldn't close properly, the latch had an issue. Again, pulled in on the spot and a quick fix. Thanks! read more

After reading a few other reviews, I have to say first off, they are pretty strict about work hours but that's understandable because they don't get paid overtime. I came here because I needed the battery terminal replaced because it was loose and coming off the battery (which itself was recently replaced). The guys at O'Reilly said I needed to completely replace the terminal so I bought the replacement part and brought it next door to have them swap it out. The mechanic was very helpful at explaining what was wrong and fixed the loose terminal without using the replacement part. They quoted cheaper than Habelt's/Sunset 76 Auto and got the job done without complications. Would definitely do business here again. read more

Thanks Rex for fixing up the starter in my car. They gave me a reasonable time and cost estimate kept me updated throughout the day until it was time for me to pick it up. No surprises. They take most forms of payment as well which was easy. They were also nice enough to stay a little bit after their closing time to let me and their other customers come pick up their vehicles. On top of that if I could give them 6 stars I could, because on my way pulling out they spotted that one of my rear lights wasn't working. Told me to pull back around so I did, and they quickly replaced the bulb for me. A nice, honest, hardworking owner and team of mechanics. I seem to be plagued with car problems constantly so I'm sure I will be coming back soon! read more

Five years later, they are still great! Highly recommended. They do a fantastic job every time, or, if they think it's something that is out of their range (which doesn't happen often), they let you know right away. read more

I was having some troubling noises coming from my brakes and front right wheel and pulled into Rex to get a diagnosis and estimate. Within an hour, I had both as well as an offer to have the problem fixed within the day. Jackie was extremely prompt and conscientious about following up, the pricing was extremely competitive, and there was absolutely no fuss involved at all. read more

Super fair on prices and very honest. I went in to get my brake pads changed. Would have done it myself, but the lack of flat ground and tools at my place would not make that possible. Most places told me I need to have my rotors resurfaced which would have tacked on a few hundred dollars. I was told I did not have to do that yet and that they were fine. The price was even 5 dollars less than what he quoted on the phone. Looks like a win win. I only wished they were open a little earlier as I am currently sitting in my cart waiting till they open their doors. read more

This garage is honest and great service. We brought in 2 cars to be serviced. Unlike other garages they look for little things that doesn't need fixed whereas Rex only tells you what needs to be fixed. read more

Finding a helpful and reliable neighborhood car repair service is priceless! Rex auto services had helped me out on several occasions. Sometimes, I just had to stop by to see if they are available to help and they never refuse. The service is excellent, the prices are very reasonable and the team is extremely helpful and nice to work with. I highly recommend! read more

Honest mechanics are hard to find. Jackie is trustworthy and prices are very fair. He is my go to guy for car repairs now.

Is there some way to give six stars? My first time there and I'm sold until I learn differently. I talked to Jackie on the phone, brought my car in and he pinpointed the problem right away. His estimate was right on point, the job was done within 24 hours and I'm pleased. I asked him to check the brakes too, he could have just done them and I'd have been none the wiser, however he said they were okay for now. Very honest, thank you. They will get my future business. read more

Rex Auto Services - Auto Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

Rex is the best garage period. They're extremely kind, fast, reasonable, and really know what they're doing. I always end up paying less than I think I will, and always get my car back faster than expected. I have an older VW beetle that often needs repairs and after having a horrible experience at Royal Automotive, I took it to Rex and it was fixed in to time with zero stress. They will also try to fix minor issues they notice without any request and never charge for it. I've had a window repaired, a lock and door handle replaced, new brake pads, and oil leaks fixed. I trust Rex above any other garage and definitely recommend! read more
