Took my Camary to Sam's for issue with an extreme shaking while driving. About a year ago I had city tires replace motor mounts that, I was told needed replacing. From the time I started the car to driving off with it I knew something was not right. It had a vibration especially when backing up and while idling, but it still had a vibration at any speed. I took my car back to have city tires fix the issue and after having my car for 3 days , they said they couldn't find any issue. Well know my daughter is using the car and I wanted the problem corrected. Took it to Sam's after researching automotive repair shops and he found the issue immediately. He throughly explained the problem, took a video of the problem, showed me the mount that had to be replaced due to installation not done properly and causing the vibration. What a difference it made to the performance of my car. I've found my go to automotive repair shop. Sam is knowledgeable, his receptionist is kind and also knowledgeable, they are prompt, communicative, and reasonable. I highly recommend Sam's auto repair read more

I learned about Sam's when I was at Enterprise rental car, he's the one that does thier oil changes and such. They spoke highly of him so I got his information. I also asked for recommendations from my friends on Facebook and my coworker also recommended Sam's. I called Sam's Auto and explained the issue I was having with my car. I could tell Sam was very knowledgeable about my car and the problem I was having with my gear shift. I had my car towed and Sam repaired it and also explained and demonstrated what the problem was. He fixed my car quick at a very responsible cost! Being a female I'm always concerned about being Bamboozled by a mechanic, but I have found a great mechanic finally! Highly recommended Sam's Auto Repair! read more

Sam and his dad did an excellent prepurchase inspection for a used car we were looking at buying. We are from our of town and called him to set up the appointment as a new customer and without seeing the car from the dealer prior. Their exam was extremely thorough and reasonably priced, and he was such a great help explaining to us the issues with the vehicle and explaining what to expect when buying a used car. I would recommend to anyone looking for work or inspections in Modesto. We will definitely come back if we need another PPI done in Modesto! Their shop is very clean and organized and they are very knowledgeable and personable. read more

The wife recommended I come here the next time I had a need. Two weeks later my Lincoln had a steering issue and got first crack at it! Pulled up and noticed this place has a great location with easy access, the MAX bus passes right by headed for the Transportation Center, the Old Mill Cafe is a stone's throw if you need to wait after a morning drop off and the shop is clean enough to sit on the floor and not worry about your jeans! Didn't have to wait long and the car was done the same day. I don't want to see everyone swarm this place but you should definitely check this place out the next time you're having issues! read more
