    Well..........I took my car to Sean's auto car because my heater wouldn't get warm. He offered me a loaner vehicle, which I declined. Huge mistake on my part, I should have taken it because it took 3 weeks to get my car back. Once the repairs were complete ($4600), I was told they broke my dipstick tube. Ian told me they fixed the damage and consider it as a free oil change. Not exactly free when I had to pay for the oil and filter, which was replaced a week prior. I also got a call that my rear passenger window dropped (was not an issue when I took it to the shop) and would no longer go up or down. Ian told me they would fix it for another $500. To make matters worse, my DPF light illuminated on my dash. When I got home, I noticed greasy fingerprints on interior of the car, and they also tore a hole on the drivers seat and did a poor job repairing it. Needless to say, I took my car to the dealer to fix the window, and dfp issue that arose while my car was at Sean's. The dealer repaired my car properly. I would never take my car or recommend this mechanic. The cost of repairs is comparable to VW dealerships. The diagnosis, punctuality, and repair was far superior at the dealership, thus my car will be going there from this point forward. Update.....I now have a coolant leak as a result of the job performed by Sean's. I took my car to the dealership to get it properly repaired. I'm aware the repair is covered by some sort of "warranty" provided by Sean's, but I still felt that taking it the dealership,and having it properly repaired will give me peace of mind.

    My car stopped working early March 2020. It had engine head gasket and more issues internally. I almost lost hope it'd work again but Sean generously offered to fix it in June. Thank you @seansautocare team for going above and beyond blessing me and for being an answer to my prayers. Helped with paint job and chrome H. Incredible timely and communicative service. Amazing team serving with honesty, integrity, and joy.

    So let me start off by saying if you value your money and time then don't take your car nowhere near this damn place. I took my car here for the first couple of times and thought they were helping me. Turns out they weren't. I had to get an engine coolant sensor replaced and a leak detection pump fixed and he charged me 2000$ to fix. Most of it was just on labor alone. For my starter replacement he charged me 1000$, then for a break vacuum pump replacement he quoted me 2600 through text and said the labor would be 2100. That's when I knew this shop was just plain shady and thieves. They try to act like they're there to help you and look out for you but they're not. On top of that they used my car to call around and get quotes for the repairs because they're "competitive". Never heard of a shop doing that before. Once I told him I'd take my car elsewhere he insisted on keeping me as a customer and he'd lower that repair cost to 1400 total. He went from 2600 to 1400 once he found out I wasn't trying to pay that much money. I even called the Volkswagen dealer yall and got a quote from them!! I told Sean what the quote was and he called me a liar and said there is no way and that Volkswagen was lying to me when I was just on the phone with them. If you take your car here don't just agree to whatever price they say, call around and get different quotes. Because these ppl WILL lie and scam you. I've never written a review before but this place deserves this one for-sure. If you're a Christ believer don't fall for it, they claim they believe in god, but try to charge 2100 in labor for a job that doesn't even cost that much.They don't have any certificated technicians there and Sean just mentioned he is barely returning back to the shop after 4 years, so I'm not even sure if he knows what he's fully doing. With all this being said please avoid this shop at all cost and save your money!!!

I went in for transmission fluid change earlier in February in my Toyota Camry 2018. I bought OEM Toyota transmission fluid and asked Joe to help do drain and fill.The drain and fill was completed. After that there was a rough driving issues started. I went back to show my car to joe and he drove the car he told me he don't see any issues. I wanted him to check transmission fluid port on if there is low transmission fluid he didn't agree and told me I might be overthinking. I went to different mechanic in April and he checked. I paid $100 to reopen the port for transmission fluid and what we saw was no fluid came out from the primary port. He added 0.5 quarters left. The issues I have had for rough idle and need to have higher RPM on slope went away completely.According to him you have to keep the car running when you drain the fluid and you need to have it at the right temperature he said the drain and fill wasn't done correctly that's why there was still room for fluid. The viscosity of the fluid makes a difference in how much you can fill and drain. He double checked for leakage and there were no leaks either. When I went to joe and asked about don't you have to keep car warm to see if temperature is right? He said you only do it when there is a leak. I don't think Joe knew enough about mechanics of New car. I wasn't overthinking when I went to ask Joe for help and asked to recheck the transmission fluid. I paid $260 for labor only( $160 to Joe and $100 to another mechanic) for same job. It's really absurd. Overall this could have damaged my transmission. I think for future the customer advise should be taken seriously. I know my car well so I know when it's not acting good. I have been driving it from 10 years.

I was able to temporarily make it disappear to pass the smog test a couple years ago, but it came back on. Last year I had to pass the smog test again, but couldn't make it disappear this time around. I first took it to another mechanic who didn't have troubleshooting machines and told me we had to do the process of elimination thing, starting with changing the air filter, then fuel filter, then a few other things that took over three weeks and over three hundred dollars worth of parts and repairs. Still, the check engine light came on. That's when I turned to Yelp and found Ara(the owner) at Castle Automotive. I spoke with him on the phone and he told me to bring it in and he could troubleshoot with the proper machines and pretty much pinpoint the problem. I brought it in and within an hour and half he told me that he was certain in was one specific sensor. The total cost was less than what I paid the other mechanic that took three weeks with no results. He told me to drive it over the weekend then stop in afterwards and he'll check it one last time to give the go ahead to take the smog test. I picked up my car, drove it around for 60 miles, then swung by his place, they checked it and gave the okay to take the smog test. I drove across the street, took the smog test and passed! It has been almost a year later and no check engine light! Recently, I had another issue with my car and drove it there and he pointed to the exact problem and said I could do it myself at home to save money. I told him that I wanted them (the pros) to do it and to add an oil change while we're at it! I am sooooo happy to have a local honest and trustworthy mechanic in my neighborhood. I'm super grateful that I found Ara at Castle Automotive. I have recommended them to friends and family and highly recommend for all you Yelpers to check them out as well. You'll be happy you did!
