These guys are great! They came strongly recommended by several friends so when my truck started acting up I took it to them. I had no idea what was wrong. They could have said anything they wanted, but instead it turned out I had a 'senior moment' and accidentally turned the 4WD knob to '4 low' and that is what caused it to run strangely. Instead of a possibly big bill I was thrilled to hear them say 'no charge'! I was impressed with their friendliness and honesty. They have won my future business! read more

AC quit working right at the start of a heat wave. TC Auto Care diagnosed the problem, found it was a blown fuse. Fixed it fast and didn't charge an arm and a leg. read more

A friend recommended TC Autocare/Jhonatan based on their excellent car repair experience with them. Jhonatan did not disappoint! He was honest, fair and timely in the repair of our '99 Corvette. He also guaranteed his repairs for 1 year which is something I've never been told by an auto mechanic. Very impressive. I'll be back with my other cars. Thanks Jhonatan, your reliable and friendly service are greatly appreciated! read more

We cannot say enough great things about Jhonattan! He is incredibly honest and always goes above and beyond for us. We were once quoted $2,100 for a repair at a well-known shop in Elk Grove, but Jhonattan did the same work for only $900--and the quality was top-notch. Last summer, he also fixed my car's AC on the same day during a scorching hot day, while every other shop said it would take two weeks. Jhonattan is truly a man of integrity, and it's so rare to find someone like him in this industry. If you're looking for a reliable, honest, and skilled mechanic, we highly recommend him! read more

So happy with the work that I had done with TC Auto Care! Jhonatan was so amazing to work with and helped answer the many questions I had. He instantly knew my car's issue and recommended the fix and quoted a great price! I will definitely be back for any maintenance or work I would need done. read more

I truly appreciate this business and its commitment to honesty. I have taken several vehicles there, and they have consistently provided fair quotes. I received the service I requested without any attempts to upsell me. Please continue your honest business practices, as dealing with vehicle troubles can be a significant source of stress and worry. The pricing was fair and they went out of their way to find me the best, but cheapest fix for my cars. read more

Had my A/C serviced today because it was not working. I was in the shop and it was repaired by 1:00 PM! Fast is an understatement! Great value for the money also! read more

Sorry guys, my long overdue review! These guys are awesome and on point for sure. Finding a solid car spot this day and age is quite difficult, if you ask me. I'm so glad I found these guys. Took my appointment last minute and made things happen. Thank you so much!! read more

I reached-out to TC Auto Care because my clutch fluid level was low, again, so something had to be leaking. My car is a 2007, so I figured it had to be an old hose fitting leaking. TC Auto responded that it would be $69.99 (for the inspection only, not to replace all of the hoses - my misunderstanding, nbd.) I had no appointment, but went anyway (just in case). Mr. I-forget-his-name looked at my clutch master cylinder reservoir, then had my car up on the lift in under 5 minutes (at this point I had been there almost 7 minutes). He inspected everything, indicated to me where things were, and explained where it would likely be leaking if it was. Neither of us was able to see any indication of leakage. I'll need to keep an eye on the level, but that is not difficult. TC Auto took time out of their obviously busy day to investigate (and explain) what turned-out to be a non-job. The mechanic was friendly, personable, highly knowledgeable, and made the experience easy and kinda fun. The next time my car needs work that I can't do, TC Auto is where I will go. read more

Jonathan is THE BOMB!! He did everything he could to accommodate my car issues and did it very well! He went over and beyond and I'm very appreciative. He's honest and very knowledgeable. I'm definitely coming back! 3/35/19 Update!! I have continued bring my vehicles here for service. Today, Jonathan was kind enough to answer all my questions and even gave helpful recommendations/information to assist me with a situation his shop doesn't specifically handle. I can't reiterate how much I appreciate him, his helpful personality and the excellent work provided at a reasonable cost. read more

Best repair shop in town hands down, from ownership down to the shop mechanics, I have been taking vehicles here for the last 6 years and have never had a return service on any of my vehicles the issue is always resolved within the first repair! read more

This is our favorite auto mechanic, he is always friendly. He always does only what is necessary on your vehicle and doesn't try to oversell just to get more money out of you. He gives you different options and tells you what is most important to have and what can wait. He always fits you into his schedule when you need service immediately. By far the best mechanic that we have used. There is a nice waiting room, a coffee shop, several restaurants and few fast food places nearby if you want to drop your car and go get lunch. read more

Super impressed with the service I received today. I've been struggling with an issue and check engine light for the past 4 years which has made it impossible to get smogged. On a whim I stopped by today and was told they could at least diagnose my issue today. They not only diagnosed but repaired this problem keeping the shop open on additional hour. They showed me the damaged parts and took pictures of the repair. Super impressed with the excellent service and staying late to complete the repair. Just found my new repair shop! read more

we're sent here to get a potential hose leak fixed. they were happy to take a look and very transparent about what the issue might be. unfortunately we didn't have the time to be able to leave our van for a day but if we did, i know it would've been in good hands! read more

I would like to commend the owner, Jhonatan (that's how his name is spelled) Sosa, for his persistence in diagnosing a stubborn clutch problem that I was having with my 2000 Camaro SS. I had previously been disappointed by other mechanics who had misdiagnosed the clutch problem (the clutch would intermittently fail to disengage) as a hydraulic issue. Jhonatan discovered that the low-mileage high-performance clutch assembly that was installed 3 years ago was defective. I had a new spare clutch gathering dust in my garage and Jhonatan quickly installed it and the car now runs and shifts great! I know that Jhonatan put many more labor hours into my car than he billed me for but the cost increase over the original estimate was more than justified. I am knowledgeable about auto mechanics and while I was very frustrated with previous futile attempts (some by myself) at fixing the problems, Jhonatan hung in here and got the job done! read more

They are very responsive and affordable. I will definitely use their services again. Thanks Jonathan.

2011 registration came in the mail yesterday for my 2005 Nissan Titan and it large letters across the top of the page it said "SMOG CHECK" required. Shucks!!! but I guess this is the 1st one after 6 years of ownership. I googled a few places outside of Galt and all had higher prices than I expected and the fact that my brother always has my truck, makes scheduling difficult. I called TC auto care and yes they do smog checks! Just opened in May they were offering a $10 discount. Chris and Demetrio who were working today's shift were very welcoming and as promised, got the truck smogged and certified within 15 minutes!! I also asked them to give me an estimate for replacing a couple of hoses (NIssan dealership quoted me almost $800) and they gave me an estimate for half of that!!! I think I'll be a customer for life...now if they could only do body work on my truck :) read more

Called TC Auto Care this morning & asked if they do smog checks & they do if you come in before 2pm. I arrived around 11:30am & the owner, Jhonathan, said it would be around 45 minutes or so before they would be able to get to my car. No problem...I would wait. He took my DMV invoice & said he would enter it into the system. I sat on the couch in the waiting room & made myself comfortable. Over an hour later, Jhonathan comes back into the waiting room & says that he is not able to smog my vehicle because he entered the information & it requires a "Star" station to perform the smog. He said that there is nobody in the town of Galt that is a "Star" station & the closest would be Elk Grove. He was kind enough to hop on the computer & look up the address of the nearest Smog 'n Go; however, he wrote the address on my DMV remittance stub in ink! As previous reviews have stated, I am sure Jhonathan is an honest mechanic that does good work. You don't get a 5-Star Yelp rating having unethical & shoddy business practices; however, I certainly did not appreciate wasting over an hour of my time sitting around expecting my vehicle to have a smog check & then be told that it can't be done & I have to go elsewhere. That is not cool or acceptable. read more

I'm a technician, but A/C isn't my thing so I figured I'd give the local guys a shot when a chain store couldn't figure it out. I brought my vehicle in close to closing time, not expecting them to look at it then but rather to see if they could help me out later. They took it in, gave it a brief once-over and were unable to find anything obvious. Asked me to bring it back when there was more time which I did a few days later. They found the problem and got me fixed up at a very reasonable price. I'll definitely be back for things I need another set of eyes and hands on. thanks guys! read more

I had my transmission serviced at TC and they were very responsive to a last minute appointment. They were very busy, so they stayed after hours to finish my truck at no extra charge. Great price and friendly staff. Thank you read more

I am totally blown away. They are friendly, professional and they went over and above what was asked (without extra charge). I will definitely be recommending them to my family and friends for reliable and reasonably priced maintenance and repairs on their vehicles. Any car problems I have in the future I will definitely trust them to take care of it for me. read more

This is my 3ed time here. I have always been very happy with the work that Johnathan and his crew provide. He is very attentive to his customers needs and concerns and makes sure that they are informed about your vehicle. I will be back and have no problem referring people to them. Thank you Jonathan for your help and professionalism. read more

First visit to TC. Excellent customer service, helpful, knowledgeable. Fair pricing. Best part ~ they were able to diagnose and fix my car in one day, hard to be without a car ~ greatly appreciated!! Nice having a local auto shop and not having to travel out of town. Definitely recommend!! read more

This is my first visit to TC and I will definitely return again. I am more than pleased with the customer service I received and the timely manner my vehicle was repaired. read more

On Thursday 7/9, I stopped by TC Auto Care to check how much they charged to tune up my car, it's a v6 and they estimated around $300. I then told them I'd bring it in on Friday and when I came back another person estimated it'd be around $400-$500 so I decided to still use their services. Everyone can look at the invoices I attached that outlined all the services they provided for me that day. When I went back to pick up my car they charged me $502.69 but then they suddenly told me they had to charge me $20 more because I used a debit card, what a joke. So I got my car and drove for 2 days and it didn't feel right. So I told my son to check out my car, when he opened up the hood there were so many parts they didn't even bother to reconnect. They also didn't even change my air filter, the oil level was even below the normal amount. It seems to me they don't know how to do their job correctly. My son has to fix everything they DIDN'T DO. This will definitely be my first and last time ever coming here. I genuinely wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. I already told some of my friends to not go to this place. It's sad they took advantage of new customers and their hard earned money, TC Auto Care are crooks! read more

TC Auto Care & More - Auto Repair Near Me - Galt, California

See all

Best auto repair shop I've been to. The owner, Jhonatan, is very professional and super friendly. He's given me the best service and help I've ever experienced at an auto repair. He helped me search for deals when it's come to ordering parts for my car, he's been nothing short of professional, definitely goes above and beyond. My waits have not been long at all, which is a good thing when you're crunched for time. I have referred them to many friends and will continue to do so. His employee is super friendly as well and very informative. They definitely deserve the 5 stars. Best place I've taken my car to. read more

My radiator broke while I was on my way to Stockton from Sacramento and was lucky enough to stop near TC autocare! I came near closing, but Jonathan still gladly helped me out. Turns out my new radiator wasn't available till the next day, so I had to come back the next day. I was told that my car would be ready at 12, but to my surprise my car was finished at 10! Now, it's running better than before! The prices were very reasonable, the service was wonderful & most of all the customer service was great! I would definitely recommend this place! read more

Great service! fast and honest what else can you ask for! You get a good vibe from the guy. My dad is a mechanic so I have always gone to him for anything auto. But I just moved to Northern Cal so had to look for someone nearby. I don't think he will fool you. He tells you everything up front. I will be going back again for all my auto needs =) read more

Finally found my local trusted mechanic! Jhonathan has worked on all of my cars down to a simple oil change. Yes, I used go next door for oil changes... but I quickly switched after having a better experience with TC Auto.He gives you his genuine and honest opinion and options on how to repair and maintain your automobile. He also gives you a heads up on what to keep an eye on and that possibly may need serviced or part replaced to prevent any issues and down time on your vehicle. I no longer have to travel to Sacramento to take my cars for repairs since we have TC in town. read more

HONEST ENGINES! I'm 2 states away and these guys took care of my kids' CRV!!! Saved Us Lots!!! TC & Rocky treated me and my kids like we were part of their family!! Thank You!! read more

Instead of name calling, let's state facts. The 2nd mechanic indicated that the connector and hose were damaged. The car only had a little over 50 k miles. These items should have been replaced at the beginning or was the original problem and didn't need a new compressor that you sold us. When we brought this up to you. You said you would take care of the A/c and at least pay for the Freon and evaluation. Fact we sent a copy of the work order to you. That's when you wouldn't answer phone calls. You were not available. And emails. Were not returned. Even your reply on yelp said you were sending a $ card. I guess it's lost in the mail with the other responses. Because after almost 3 weeks no response. Professional business don't act like you. And I truly hope no other people will get burned from doing business with you. read more

Taken a few of my cars here. He is honest and reasonable. I would definitely recommend this place. It's hard to find good honest people today... read more

Very nice and professional. My fuel pump went out on I5 and they called around to get the best deal, worked with my dealer on reimbursing my costs and the waiting area and bathrooms are very clean. Also, they are located in an area with lots of restaurants and a coffee place nearby. If a person is going to get stranded this is an okay place to end up. read more

We have taken both of our cars here and are very happy with the work and workers. Had an engine replaced and other major car repairs done here. They are very honest and fair with their prices. The work gets done fast! read more

I drive Thousands of miles each month working 6 days a week, On 10/23/2013 en-route to see a customer/appointment, my vehicle suddenly started to act up! ... The best thing that could happen, ..........HAPPEN!! I broke down just walking distance from TC Auto Care & More off the 99 highway. Sure enough I needed HELP, and AAA Emergency Road Services wouldn't help me because I wasn't a member just only a auto insurance policy customer. TC Auto Care and Staff.... PUSHED my vehicle from where it was broken down all the way to their shop... Immediately they told me it was The Timing Belt and also The Radiator was SHOT!! 6 hours later while i waited in their comfortable and well kept customer lounge with WI-FI so I could stay Productive.... I was extremely happy to pay for the costs of my repairs.... because that meant I could still go see my customer who agreed to wait for me.... So don't wait until you brake down to go see TC Auto Care & More! I'm sure they can check and see what TRUE REPAIRS you'll need before you braking down off the freeway. Thank You Very Much!!!! ...... TC Auto Care & More!!! read more

I had scheduled an appointment to have my vehicle smogged at TC Automotive. The owner informed me they were running a few minutes behind, yet still they were timely and professional, and reasonably priced. TV and magazines in the lobby if your vehicle is getting worked on, as well! read more

Had my 2002 VW Jetta smogged. Brought my car in about 4:45pm, I was out the door at 5:15pm!!!! I've had multiple vehicles smogged throughout the years up in the Sacramento area, and TC Auto Care is the best by far! The prices are comparable to other smog shops, but their customer service is second to none! I'll be back just because of their outstanding customer service!!!! read more
