Excellent and fast service. very professional, fixed many issues and replaced tires all in one day. Will always go back to them for service on my cars. read more

I received an oil change discount coupon from Stress-Free Auto in the mail for new customers, so I decided to try them since they are nearby. The office staff was professional, communication was good, and the shop was clean. In addition to changing my oil, they did a detailed overall inspection, which included a battery stress test, engine, brakes, and undercarriage. The full report, which included photos, was emailed to me and I was impressed by how comprehensive it was. If you just need an oil change and can do the minor maintenance and inspections yourself, then it will be a bit pricy at this shop (~$170). However, if you want someone else to do all that, it would be cheaper than a dealership. read more

Hats off to AJ and the entire team at stress free auto Sunnyvale. My challenger broke down and wouldn't start. They root caused it to fuel pump failure. They acquired original mopar fuel pumps which is required by dodge and were able to finish the job in one day. Totally stress free !! read more

I brought my older BMW 5 Series to Stress-Free Auto Care after it developed a misfire. I explained that I had experienced the same symptoms before and that replacing the affected spark plugs and ignition coils had resolved the issue. The shop replaced one spark plug and two coils, which initially stopped the misfire. However, the same symptoms returned only two or three days later. I called and asked them to check whether the newly installed parts were still working properly. I wasn't asking them to solve every other issue with this older car for free--only to verify their recent work before recommending additional repairs. Instead, I was told that the parts may be covered by warranty, but the labor to inspect or replace them would not be. They also emphasized that I had declined their full diagnostic service, which I recall costing approximately $300-$400. I understand that proper diagnosis has a cost, but when the same problem returns within days of an $800 repair, I expect the shop to take some ownership and at least inspect its recent work without immediately adding more charges. For comparison, I previously had all six spark plugs and coils replaced elsewhere for around $1,000. Here, replacing one plug and two coils has already cost approximately $800, and I could easily spend another $1,000 without knowing whether the underlying problem will be resolved. Based on my experience, this shop may be suitable for routine services such as oil changes. However, I would not recommend it for complicated or uncertain mechanical problems. The costs can add up quickly, and I did not feel there was enough accountability, transparency, or customer support after the original repair failed to provide a lasting solution. For complex repairs, I would personally choose a smaller independent mechanic who is willing to investigate the problem, clearly explain the findings, and stand behind the work. read more

Very efficient service. There was good communication throughout. I felt taken care of.

Great service, no hassle, no upsell, great prices, very fast, very pleasant, very transparent.

Quick review as all I came in for was an oil change, but overall a greet auto shop! They seem fairly new but they provide great service and I believe an introductory offer for a full diagnosis of your vehicle when you take it in. The process was pretty quick and the shop was very responsive and even though I did not elect to get additional work done, (I can do a lot of the regular maintenance stuff myself, really just wanted the diagnostic) I appreciated the constant updates on the work getting done, making it a very "stress-free" experience. Overall worth a visit as a first time customer and I'll be back for regular oil changes. read more

Seems good. but it's getting really expensive. $247 for an oil change, tire rotation (I hope they did it), and engine air filter. They do have snacks, coffee and tea, and water available. So you need to eat and drink a lot to get your money's worth. I don't think they ever said "thank you." It was just "you're all set." I guess I should have apologized for giving them my business? lol read more

I have been been bringing in my 25 year old Toyota Corolla here for routine maintenance and repairs and they are by far more affordable than a dealership. The appointment feature, text messages and detailed online quoting system makes things easy. I am always offered a Lyft ride home but never need it. read more

Good experience with stress free! Everyone is super helpful and friendly. They send prompt updates on your car as they work and are quick to follow up. I never feel like they are pushing any unnecessary services on me. read more

The shop was very accommodating and tries to make getting your tire changed out and they are organized. I was wondering input getting to work and had to take Ubers back and forth. They have a courtesy car but it was out. My co-worker had it in the employee parking lot ! They are very responsive. They had to special order my tire which was only a day and the price was a little less than last time I had a tire replaced. It's a helpful place and people seem to like their jobs and have positive attitudes? I great option. I'm going again soon . read more

I took my car in due to a stalling issues and unknown electrical problems. Nick and his team did a fantastic job getting everything diagnosed and fixed, and they even called me a Lyft back home while they worked on the car (I believe the ride limit was up to $15 which ended up being fully covered in my case). In terms of price, I'd say it is about average for what you'd expect out of a good repair shop - they worked on my car a full day and the whole thing ended up being around $1K total. Really great customer service by Nick and his team - I'll be coming back here in the future if I have any other car issues. read more

I'll be honest--I chose this place because of the name Stress-Free Auto, but overall my experience turned out to be more stressful than I expected. On the positive side, I appreciated the transparency, the clean environment, and how easy it was to communicate through text and get updates. I also really liked the convenience of being able to get my car in quickly and have it ready the same day. I like that they showed the full cost breakdown. That said, I did feel like they could easily take advantage of someone who doesn't know much about cars. It also gave me the impression that they might lead customers into paying for services they don't necessarily need. Because they didn't have the full history of my car, it seemed like they could have easily recommended THOUSANDS of dollars of work that might not have actually been necessary. Even for a simple oil change, I ended up spending more than I had anticipated. Overall, while there were things I liked, the experience left me with mixed feelings. I'm not sure I would return. read more

Too expensive and you get that shady shiester vibe from the Menlo Park service advisor and mechanics that are there

I've been hearts strange noise when I brake, not all the time but enough that it began concerning me. I drove past Stress-free Auto care and looked them up. I love that you can kinda see what the fee will be (estimate) I made the appointment online everything was seamless. I went in the two gentleman were so friendly and they checked me in. Even offered me a Lyft. I was just there to get my car assessed. They found some issues that may be causing the noise. I wasn't ready to get the work done and they totally understood and didn't pressure me or anything! I was leaving yo go out of town however when I return back I will be going back and getting the work done with Stress-FreeAuto care! Customer service was amazing! Upfront pricing is such a refreshing experience especially if you're on a budget! Highly recommend them! read more

I have to say I have mixed experiences with my brake pad/rotor services... One of the new brake system installed have had problems like constant grinding noise, reversely installed brake pad (yes i did not make this up) and brake pad that making clicking sound whenever I press brake for the 1st time after changing gear (this turns out to be the pad installed is a bit smaller in size and not tightly fitting into the system). I went back to the shop 3 times over the course of ~9 months, each time discovering some issues and replacing the pad/disk (this is where i felt good about the shop, everyone welcomed me back and did the diagnose and replacement for free). I end up relacing the two front pad/disk with another brand (zimmerman? that's what i heard) and resolved all issues. Maybe I just got unlucky, but I have to leave my honest and true experience which exhausts me over the last year (imagine every time you back out of your garage and hearing this "click" sound from your brake system, with a baby in a car. You natually worries about your safety). read more

this place has helped our family and our cars for the last few years. we would recommend their care and their services. they answer very quickly and are able to price out fair quotes with no pressure. read more

Visited this place 4 times in the last year and a half. Our 2017 Honda Civic was bottoming out on the cracks in the freeway, after driving over deep potholes in Lake Tahoe back roads. 6/19/23 took it to Stress-Free, and they diagnosed the problem as leaking shock absorbers, showing me pictures of the problem. $600 for 2 new shocks for a car with only 21,820 miles? Could not blame the pot holes for all the problem, as we bought this car as a demo back in 2018 with 6500 miles, and you know how customers take it out on loaners by driving nonstop over speed bumps. Driving home from Thanksgiving, my 2017 Honda Fit was bottoming out on cracks in the freeway. Two new shocks needed? Took it to Stress-Free, and they diagnosed the problem as only pins falling out holding the underpan on the engine cover. It would periodically scrape the bottom when traveling at speed. $122.50 to fix the loose skid plate. Tossed in the $113.20 oil change, and $64.60 wiper blades. Free multi-point digital inspection during all visits. And they told me I didn't need a new battery despite the battery being 7 years old. They take pictures of all potential problem areas. Only problem I've had with this place is finding a place to park. Only 10 full size parking spots, and 7 of them filled by overnighters when they open at 8am. Three micro parking spots only for cars smaller than my subcompact Honda Fit. read more

Stress-Free Auto Care - Tires Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

See all

Fast service, east to work with staff, and I really like the detailed report emailed to me. Will definitely come back

I went there because of a slow leak of one tire caused by a nail, expecting a patch, and I ended up with four new tires. They also ran a general check up and identified other issues that need attention/Service, that I could have ordered at the same time. Efficient, transparent and very friendly service. read more

This is just a review for an over the phone consultation I had with Byron and I am very impressed with how they live up to their "stress-free" motto. I called to get a second opinion on a quote for a diagnosis I got from the Ford dealership and was met with lots of helpful insightful information plus some hard honesty about my car lol which I actually really appreciated! No sales gimmicks and in the end, the dealership is likely where I'll be going. But in the event I have another issue I can definitely see myself coming here to get a diagnosis instead! If you have a finicky Ford, Byron is very knowledgeable! read more

It was great to get my car in quickly, help with the inspection, and even the offer to drive me home or give me $15 for an Uber. There are a couple problems. First is that other Yelp auto shops messaged me and offered to do an alignment for $150 or lower (I have Tesla Model 3), while Stress-Free charged me $250. Second, they were going to make sure the suspension wasn't off first before doing the alignment to make sure it wasn't the problem. They didn't. They did the alignment and I still have the same problems. On the bright side, they were very friendly to help in every other sense. Grateful for that. read more

nothing short of outstanding! Professional and on time. services as quoted and very reasonably priced

I've been a customer here for years, but this latest experience was unacceptable. During a recent oil change, the technician overfilled my vehicle with oil, which led to a leak. I had to bring my car to the Mountain View location, where the staff confirmed that the Sunnyvale technician had added an extra quart of oil. Thankfully, they were able to fix the issue. This experience was frustrating and deeply disappointing. I understand that for some, this might just be a job; but when you're working on someone's vehicle, that responsibility must be taken seriously. I've worked hard for my car, and I expect a basic level of care and professionalism when I entrust it to your team. Because of the lack of attention to detail and the poor handling of my vehicle, I won't be coming back. read more

Stress-Free Auto Care - Oil leak due to overfill. - Tires Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I recommend this auto care shop. They are amazing! They go far and beyond. Nick was amazing!! Well I can't remember all the other guys names there.. but they are all great and make you feel comfortable. They are professional and take the time to explain and listen. I could give 10 stars if I could. I really and truly recommend this place. read more

Dropped off my 2020 cayenne there for oil change and air bag sensor diagnositics this week. Erick is professional, nice and walked me through the whole process carefully. The quote is transparent and fair. I would recommend the shop to my friends. read more

Service, quality, and value all superb! Best part is Stress-Free is a Veteran owned operation.

I wanted to share my experience so others can make an informed decision. After my check engine light came on, I called Stress Free Auto Care in Sunnyvale to get a quote. I was quoted around $160 for an oil change and approximately $350 for a check engine light diagnostic, not including whatever repairs might be needed afterward. The total felt pretty high, so I decided to shop around before committing. I'm really glad I did. After calling a few other local shops, I was able to get all the same services done for $230 total, including the oil change and diagnosing the check engine light. I can't speak to the quality of Stress Free Auto Care's work since I didn't move forward with them, but based on my experience getting a quote, I'd strongly recommend that others compare prices before deciding. In my case, shopping around saved me a significant amount of money. Just wanted to put this out there for anyone in the area--always get multiple quotes. read more

Friendly staff. Everything stayed on schedule and they even arranged for a complimentary ride one way.

I was always hesitant about trying new auto care service, since I had bad experience on the past, such as high cost but poor quality of service... I am glad I tried Stress-free Auto Care. Michael from the Stress-free Auto Care was very transparent and clear on what their process and cost breakdowns are. He explained what they are doing next and asked for my approval for the next step fix. I was also able to choose only taking the fix and replacements I wanted. At the end, the car was fixed and the cost was totally reasonable! It would have cost me more to get the car to fix! I would definitely recommend people trying out their auto care service! read more

Honest and top notch service at a reasonable price. I highly recommend this auto shop for all your car service needs.

very friendly staff and i got updated every step through text messages They were professional and gave me a quote upfront read more

I had my timing belt and water pump replaced by this shop. They charged me almost $2,000. What bothers me is they did not replace the coolant lost during the repair. Being mechanically inclined, I do my due diligence when it comes to maintenance, so, I checked my coolant reservoir. It was empty. I called, deaf ears answered the phone. I complained via text message and was told they bought and used coolant to replace what was lost. That is a lie. They added zero coolant and that's a recipe for disaster. Aluminum heads and blocks don't take kindly to too much heat. They tend to warp. read more

Requested a full diagnostic for some mechanical issues. Was done in a very professional & timely manner. They told me everything that needed immediate attention, will need attention soon, or no maintenance needed. Lots of value for a good price read more

received misleading estimate over the phone, which cost me money and time. if you use them make sure the estimate details are sent via yelp system read more

I went to get an alignment here. They charge much more than other places but it was a convenient place for me to go. Last time I'm going here as not only I had to come back 3 times for my car to run straight(they couldn't hold the steering wheel straight when doing the alignment somehow), they left a steering rack bolt loose which could have cause a serious accident. I'm glad I went somewhere else. read more

My wife used this location for 2018 BMW 330i current only over 70k mileage. This February the car had a a coolant level low light and this location made full diagnosis and replaced the water pump cost $1410. However, last week the car got another coolant low level light and the estimate is now over $1600. The water pump replaced in Feb also got replaced in August 2024 in Stevens Creek Dealership under factory warranty, my wife didn't ask why the water pump got replaced again just over a year new. read more

The service was completed promptly. The service department was ready with my appointment scheduling and completed at the requested hour.

This was my first time at Stress-Free Auto Care. Needed a shop that great reviews and reasonable prices for an oil change. All the boxes were checked. Service was thorough, and the inspection was very transparent. Would recommend for regular service or any auto care in general. read more
