Excellent work done by Sergio. Thanks for recommending the necessary repairs . Highly recommended

"Great service! Sergio is an excellent mechanic--highly skilled, honest, and reliable."

Thank god for Sergio's, had got a flat tire due to a pot hole and the tire shop couldn't get the stripped lug nut off and they referred Sergio's to me and they were able to get the lug nut off and my car fixed. For me it was the dedication fixing something that took over a hour whereas many other shops would give you the run around.... Most certainly coming here for any of my automotive needs in the bay and I recommend anyone who's looking for an honest mechanic to come here and get your work done. BMW was the one who messed up my car and Sergio got me back running read more

Sergio's Auto Repair - Auto Repair Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I have gotten three Intoxilock recalibrations with Sergio. Sergio is kind and very fair when it comes to service and pricing. I don't use my intoxilock any more and the thing I will remember the most besides how annoying it was is how much easier Sergio made the whole process for me. Thank you Sergio! read more

My grandfather first discovered Sergio when he was working at another shop. When he opened his own business, our family followed. We are now three generations of faithful customers. I bought a new car a few years ago, so this was my first time back at Sergio's in a while. Even in the midst of a pandemic, my new brakes were an easy, straightforward process. He's fantastic; great communication, great service, and takes good care of the customer. Previously I brought him in beaters - and he helped me keep them going until I could afford a better car. He understood the financial limitations and advised me accordingly. He has even helped connect our family to someone interested in buying a car that we had and were interested in replacing. He knows his customers. I suspect in another decade that my son and daughter will become the 4th generation to trust Sergio with our cars. read more

Trustworthy! It's hard to find a mechanic you can trust and depend on, Sergio is the man, honest, accommodating and friendly. It's a plus that it's a family run local business that we prefer to support. Oh, he's funny too. read more

Would not recommend. Took my vehicle here as I needed a replacement transmission. I was quoted and then ultimately assured that the issue has been resolved. Just days later, I am encountering the same issues I originally had. Wish I would have taken my $3k+ somewhere else where I know my problem would be fixed. Instead, my car remains undriveable and I am in the hole $3k+. Do yourselves a favor and find a place that won't rip you off. read more

My review in 2012 was 5 stars. It is now 1 and would be negative zero if it was on the scale.. For little minor repairs they are ok but for big problematic car problems: !!!!!STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Turns out that Sergio & son are rIp offs and they knew my car had major problems but ripped my off for hundreds of dollars in work that they didn't perform. They take weeks on end of fix things and give moron excuses as to why it take so long to do a job. Papa Sergio leave grease marks all inside of vehicles with no intention of cleaning the marks up. Sloppy just like the office. Ladies, watch it with papa Sergio when he starts trying to call you 'honey'.... he also tries to mask things with ill humor. I WILL NEVER GO HERE AGAIN UNLESS THEY ARE THE ONLY CAR REPAIR PLACE LEFT ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH AND IF THAT IS THE CASE I WON'T NEED THESE SHYSTERS. read more

my second time here, and LOVED it. They replaced all 4 rotors and pads for my 92 integra, in less than an hour. read more

Best service! My tire was stuck and couldn't be taken off by any spot, but they made it happen

Sergio has now done work on our 05 MDX, both 2008 Police Interceptors, 2014 Mercedes, and 1967 El Camino. He is extremely knowledgeable and we are thrilled with his work. Pricing is always fair, and work is always excellent. We cannot recommend him highly enough. We have recommended him to several friends and they have all thanked us for pointing them to this hidden gem... he is tucked behind Lozano's Car Wash on El Camino in Sunnyvale... you've like driven by him thousands of times and didn't know he was there! read more

My family and I have been coming to Sergio for auto repairs at a different auto shop before he even opened this one. This is a true mom and pops auto shop in the heart of Silicon Valley. He is honest, great priced, and prompt to fix your car, and I feel that honesty is a hard trait to come by when it comes to auto shops. He has helped us with oil changes, a leak on my old 325i BMW, and overall service on several of my family's Hondas and Toyotas. My family and I will continue to use and recommend him for auto services in the Silicon Valley area. read more

I've used Sergio's for the past 12+ years. Even though he is out of way for my neighborhood ... he is well worth the drive (or in my case this week ... well worth the tow). I just came back to him after a problem with my radiator (I hadn't seen him in ten yrs), he immediately remembered me and my car, dropped what he was doing and opened the hood ... and diagnosed the problem right on the spot. Amazing service! It is a family-owned business; he is one of the most honest guys I have ever met. Don't let the messy chaotic shop fool you lol ... this guy and his sons are the real deal. My fiancé was with me when I went back to pick up my car today. She asked him about doing an oil change on her Prius. He got inside her car, punched in some type of code .... and told her she did not an oil change just yet. He could've gone ahead and done it - we wouldn't have known any better. I can't recommend him enough; sometimes it seems like mechanics like Sergio are a disappearing breed. Five Stars. read more

Sergio's Auto repair keeps providing excellent and fast service even during challenging COVID times! They worked even with my tight schedule and worked on my car as I waited at their location. Reliable and fast, as always. Highly recommend read more

Sergio has been taking care of my two older vehicles and even some of my family member's cars for a few years now. So this review is long overdue. Thank you, Sergio and Hector you both have earned it. read more

I had that dreaded "Service Engine Soon" light go on in my 1999 Plymouth Voyager. Sergio used his computer and was immediately able to decipher the codes to read that engine 1 and 4 were misfiring. He spent a lot of time and checked everything for me. He pointed out to me fresh looking residue of water leakages in the water pump near the engine as well. He guessed correctly that I may have spark plug problems. My spark plugs were old - so I needed to change them anyways. He guessed correctly the injector was broken as well. The "Service Engine" light went away. However, he kept my car for another day to monitor it, as he could still see the engine vibrating a little. He plugged in his computers again and researched the cause. There was a small leak in the gasket - so he had to replace that - and we now could both see the engine not vibrating anymore. I asked him to keep the replaced parts for me to inspect - just to make sure he did change my gaskets, plugs and injector. Those were at least over $500 worth of work, but he gave me a discount (his customer loyalty program). I first went to Sergio over 2 years ago when my electrical system shorted. He was able to determine the problem immediately. At that time, I did not know him, so I decided to get a second opinion from another "Master mechanic". Sergio was much better than the other "Master Mechanic", who spent an hour looking for the problem and then overcharged me for parts. My past experiences has been that Sergio is both friendly and trustworthy. Check out my other reviews - they are all honest as I "tell it like it is". read more

It's ok and safe place to bring your car to fix. It is really difficult to say how much is a decent price to fix the car. At least, for me, it's ok price. Not cheap. Some of my friends said this place is expensive, but I don't know. But the most important thing is "They won't rip me off" They are always honest. That's why I always come back here. Pros No unnecessary fixing recommendation No bad surprise Honest Cons Not knowledgable average price estimate is not accurate (not too far tho) busy the person who delivers the parts (different business) is always late read more

Highly recommended! My husband's car wouldn't start, even after we tried to jump it, so we had it towed to Sergio's because their reviews were good. They were super friendly and quickly realized that the problem was that the battery was corroding. They replaced it immediately and we were on our way half an hour later for a reasonable price. We will definitely be back in the future. read more

My wife and I have been taking our cars to Sergio's for a few years now. So when my car got a case of the Mondays and the battery died, I knew who I would take my car to. Jumped my car, limped along to Sergio's shop, parked, and car died. Walked in and gave Sergio the heads up, he got my car from dead to happy again with a new battery in under an hour. Sergio got my week started off right. Thanks! Seriously, if you're looking for a mechanic you can trust and talk with, I recommend Sergio's Auto Repair. They are behind the Lorenzo's car wash. Sergio, thanks again for taking care of both me and my car. Both my car and I left your shop feeling better this Monday. read more

It's rare to find a good mechanic. It's even more rare to find an honest mechanic. Hector Sr and Hector Jr will have you believing in rainbow unicorns after your first visit. My son's car, abused at one too many Midas shops, had smoke coming out of the engine compartment. Three shops and the Jeep dealership said, "Yeah, it's something but we need to charge you an hour labor to tell you what it is, and we won't be able to look at it until after the holidays." Jeep said their first appointment was in a month. Hector Jr. diagnosed the problem -accurately- based on our description. For free. Five hours later, the car was repaired, plus a few hoses and sundry small problems fixed, and fifteen minutes of instruction to my son on how to maintain the car to avoid this problem again in this aging car. "Don't do too much all at once. Get in again in a few months for a complete tuneup, we'll go from there." Real, old fashioned mechanics. I am so grateful that we found these gentlemen...They are true gems! read more

I needed to get several scratches in my bumpers fixed (no, none of them my own fault ...) and other shops quoted me rather inordinate prices for what should be a simple paint job. I talked to Sergio and he gave me a rather reasonable quote. Note that it wasn't too precise. I left my rear bumper with him. and didn't hear from him for about a week. So I enquired and was told that they'd already finished painting it. Getting the scratches of the front bumper pained over took another few days. Picked up the car today. The paint job looks fine. Good for the price (yes, the color match is to stock color rather than what a five year old weathered car looks like but the difference is negligible). Yes, it's a bit of a hassle to get the times out of them, but again, the price is lower than at one of the big shops. In summary, you get what you pay for. And if you're willing to humor Sergio and his son for some delays and difficulty to reach them, it's a very good deal. This is the place to go for small cosmetic fixes if your car isn't new and shiny any longer. read more

Very professional and expedient. I took my 2002 Jetta in to Sergio's for breaks and disks one day during the holidays, Sergio was right on the spot, assessing this issue right away. He was straight forward with the diagnosis, length of time to fix the problem and at a fair price. During the repairs, Sergio's staff found a serious issue and straight away recommended another service that specializes in that kind or repair. Sergio called ahead and reserved a time, during the holidays, so I could continue on with my vacation road trip the same day. Thank you Sergio. read more

Con artist owner try to sell us a broken car. The catalytic converters are clogged. Stay away from this bait and switch slimeball

I took my car into Sergio's auto repair store and he did a great job was fast, efficient and fairly priced and professionally done.

Sergio and Hector very knowledgeable and honest. Installed backup camera and proximity sensors on bumpers that worked great for past 4 years!! Don't take your car to Firestone, Precision Tune franchises who will push unnecessary repairs on you. He even replaced my windscreen and keys (FOIB) for the best prices I could find. read more

Great costumer service, honest, friendly and always available at the time that you need hem. My family and I we have been his costumers for many years, and also his wife is very nice. They build a strong family business. read more

I keep taking my cars to this guy for the last three years and also recommended to my friends. He is honest , reliable and fare.

Great job on an engine replacement for my honda civic. Very trustworthy and expert work. This will be my go to place for any auto needs! Thanks Sergio and Hector! read more

I am not happy with their service and would not recommend anyone to go here. He put the wrong catalytic converter in my honda accord and also did not weld it properly (with all holes in the joint) when he installed the right one too. When I went back to check it again (due to lot of noise), he said everything is ok. So I took my car to muffler shop and they helped me to find out all these issues and get it fixed properly. read more

Sergio has been my family's mechanic for almost 10 years. I left the state in 2006 and having my mom and sisters back in Sunnyvale, with a mechanic like Sergio.. it makes me feel good. He is honest, trustworthy, and a nice guy. Believe me, if I could have him as my mechanic in Tulsa, OK (where i live now) I would. I cannot recommend him enough. Wish there were more stars to give. Truely, I've been hung out to dry by mechanics, so I know what to look for. Sergio is great and I don't know anyone in the area that's better. read more

Just to let anyone know that might be "afraid" to try a mechanic they have never used... I have known Sergio and his family for 20 years. They are all honest and hard working individuals... with nothing but the customer in mind. I have taken all my cars there, including my stepson and daughter's cars... friends too ! While they are a small shop, there isn't much they cannot do.. and they will tell you when they can't.. you CAN'T beat the prices ! It harkens back to the good ol' days when you had a "town mechanic" that you could trust ! Keep up the good work guys ! See you soon... The Passat needs some work.. tk read more

I won't go to this place any more. My car's engine light was on and I took my car to this shop because it's very close to my home and I also got their coupon. They pulled a code for me and said it could be fixed by just reset the computer. They did so and charged me 40 bucks. But only about 1 week later, the engine light turned on again and it didn't accelerate when I stepped on the gas pedal! I managed slowly drive it to their shop because it's really close to my home. This time they said I need a new part. They replaced a small box (with some wire in it) and charged me $180. I would be really happy if they really fixed the problem this time. But, but, just a couple of days later, when I was about to go home at work just before Christmas, the very same problem manifested itself again!!! I was really frustrated and called them if they could tow my car to their shop and get a real fix. They said they didn't have a towing truck and asked me to call the towing company myself. I was left no other option and so called AAA. After I sent my car to their shop, they said they would only come back after the Christmas holiday. So I was left without a car during the whole holiday! I went to their shop right after the holiday. This time they said they needed to send my car to a Nissan dealer. I agreed. A few days later, they called me that actually it's another part that needed a replacement. The Nissan dealer asked for $250. I really didn't trust them any more so I took the Nissan dealer's offer. After it's fixed by the Nissan dealer, I asked Sergio's to install back the part they mis-diagnosed and give me refund. They refused to do so by saying they had disposed the replaced part. So it took me more than $600 and more than 2 weeks without a car and went back and forth to fix a small problem, which even the Nissan dealer only charged $250. I really doubt if these guys are competent doing their job. I will never go to this place any more. read more

had a coolant leak in my bmw 525i. the coolant was leaving huge wet spots on my garage floor every night. it was leaking so heavy, i had to add a gallon of water to the cooling system every 2 days or so. Brought it to Sergio. He found a hose to be a problem, replaced it and charged $250 for the repair. However the car was still having the same problem, it was leaving wet spots on my garage floor every morning and i called Sergio in a week. He asked to bring the car back and after a short inspection said there was nothing wrong with coolant and it was just some AC water. I told him that i was poring water in my coolant extension tank almost every morning. He said, well, then it must be an internal leak and it would be a very expensive repair. I went to another mechanic. He immediately noticed the problem hose that has never been replaced. It costed me another $250 to replace the hose. I haven't had the coolant problem since then. I don't know what's wrong with this place. They either didn't have proper equipment to put some pressure in the cooling system to locate the leak source, or they were just incompetent. In either case it costed me money and I would never recommend this place to my friends. Look anywhere else for an inexpensive honest repair. read more

All of my family's cars have been serviced by Sergio's Auto for over 14 years. They are kind, honest, fair & do good work. I prefer to support this family owned businesses over all the big corporation options out there. Highly recommend! Give them a try! read more

I've been a regular customer of Sergio's for many years. Agree with everything stated in the first review. Two of Sergio's employees are his sons, and they are both competent. One of them even does automobile painting. Sergio works very hard, has fair pricing, good sense of humor, loves his work, and has always accommodated my schedule. Once my car had a problem which two auto dealers said required a part replacement. It took Sergio three minutes to make it work properly. The part did not need replacing. No negative criticisms of this place. read more
