So I go to Toyota for normal Toyotacare and service but this time around the rep from Toyota tells…read moreme my 2020 prius needs some "work." They say my rear brake pads and rotors need to be replaced + my rear shocks are leaking and are dead. They want $780 for the rear brakes and rotors then another $1250 for rear shocks and alignment. $2,030 worth of repairs for a 6 year old car with about 48000 miles on it. Obviously don't pay this if your car can still run fine and I immediately start searching for auto shops for help. I find out about Atech Auto by sending in a Yelp request and Alex gets back to me same day. He quotes me HALF the price Toyota wanted and can get me in the shop next weekend when I was free. Pretty good deal when compared to some other quotes I got. Bring my car in on Saturday around 9am and it probably doesn't get done until around 3pm. There isn't really a waiting area except for some lawn chairs. It's best to take an uber or ride Muni somewhere else to kill some time until your car is ready. Probably my only feedback is I wish they would've called me when my car was ready rather than me guessing and calling them, but hey they looked busy. Got the car back, paid the agreed price, and was on my way. I don't notice a huge change with how the car feels but I at least appreciate not being up charged twice the amount for similar services. Would recommend reaching out to them if you ever need to work on your car!

I went to Atech because I heard it was a good place and my car didn't start so I had it towed to…read morethis shop. I went and dropped it off and he GUESSED (didn't do a full diagnostic test) it was a fuel pump issue and said he's 95% it was that. Told us a certain price and after the car was done, a few days later, he called and upped the price $200 more for no reason. After 2 weeks of having my car my car didn't start AGAIN. AAA insurance came and did a diagnostic and said it was the battery needed a new one so I got one and my car sounds better and issues was solved. Alex (owner) over charges people and doesn't do a thorough job. REPLYING TO THE COMMENT(Alex): I find it very unprofessional that you as a owner / business man would put your customers name, car, family business, and bring up how much you've helped have helped them on here. First off I'm a WOMAN my name is on my yelp, I don't have to hide or lie. This is MY yelp so I get to put my opinion and experience on here. Did I feel like I got overcharged, yes from $500 as quoted the first time to $700 before picking it up. There's many mechanics that ordered things on Amazon for their customers. Other businesses owners would comment after negative reviews with " we apologize for that experience" not argue back. It's very weird how you mentioned how much you help and do for others. My experience is my experience and my opinion is my opinion.

That's far too uncommon these days, but Hill Top is one of those rare auto service centers that does this and more. I bring my Acura NSX here from Saratoga... about 45 minutes away, because I really only want Don at Hill Top to work on it. He's known as an NSX expert, but more importantly, he's just an honest, talented mechanic for any vehicle (especially Hondas and Acuras). Don and wife Diana are a great team that deserves your business and will earn your trust and admiration.

I believe partly due to the upkeep and service we get from this shop. Between the two of us we've probably had.. oil changes, brake replacements, spark plug change, starter repair, suspension work, general tune-up etc. Don always recommends things that he thinks the car absolutely needs not just to tally up a large total on a bill (also his prices are fair). He's an honest mechanic with a ton of experience on Hondas and Acuras (I think ex dealership mechanic?). You can tell purely by the quantity of NSX's which probably have a cult following, in the lot. It's a family business, Don and Diane want you in and out with a functional vehicle. Maybe that rubs people the wrong way but I would always recommend them.

I took my Trailhawk here for noisy brakes. After two years of trying to fix the problem, the noise…read morewas never remedied, and I was told that it was how the brakes were just supposed to sound. I also had an air suspension compressor pump replaced and they used an aftermarket pump that needed a bracket and didn't fit properly and made a very loud rattling noise and did it not inform me that they were not using OE part. After three tries replacing the brakes, Walee was dismissive of me and refused to check the parking brake tension cable and parking brake shoes when I suggested that that could be the issue. I took it to another shop (SF Automotive Solutions) and they told me that the brakes being used were the wrong kind of breaks and the parking brake shoes needed to be sanded and the tension cable lubed. The noise was gone after the new shop first attempted fix and has not come back.
