I Could not have had a better experience, Todd was extremely helpful, kind, professional, and straightforward about the service being provided to me. The quality of service was worth every dollar. I will be coming back here for any future car troubles I have and referring anyone I know to his business. Thank you Todd! read more

since i have started going to the auto shop i have not been more pleased, being in the automotive industry myself i know how important customer service is, i have always received great service, todd, jenny, jeff and joe are great! i trust them with my car needs and highly recommend them to anyone! read more

Been in this place twice so far and both times have been excellent service. Excellent work. I was referred by a family member. I went there with the RAV4 I bought for the second vehicle and needed some brakes and some other maintenance done on it. They went through the hole Toyota car. Checklist that they know about and gave me a list of the problems that needed to be repaired. And it was so easy. I picked the things that were the most important and made appointments later on for the others. There is budgeting, of course. But they fixed everything very quick professionally with warranties on their work spent an excellent experience with these people I would advise anyone who needs to work done on their domestic vehicle to bring it to them. The value is excellent because they are a honest and trustworthy company. read more

I had front end issues, they replaced my control arms upper and ball joints, instead of putting in GMC parts, like they told me, they put in after market parts,and over charged me for them. they put in cast iron control arms, which should of been aluminum control arms, in doing so it destroyed the lower ball joints. Their prices for parts are overcharged. Buyer beware, get a second opinion before going here. When I confronted them, they hung up on me, customer service is the worse wont even correct the problem or reimburse me for the parts that are clearly the wrong ones.. read more

They are efficient pleasant & accommodating. Also, the maintenance is excellent! I have been going there for several years & the service remains consistently excellent & pricing is competitive. read more

They suck ever since the original owner sold the place. I took my van in a few years ago for a 60k tune up, they forgot to refill my transmission, they cracked my oil filter oil heater housing. They were supposed to change it out for an aluminum one, they didn't. I had to take back in because they didn't install it right it leak oil all over the place. I had have the engine power washed to get all of oil out of the engine valley. Now I had to take it to get the manifold replaced because they stripped out the threads when they replaced the oil heater. read more

Because I called to get a estimate on getting a fly wheel and torque converter and to get my fly plate replaced and she told me to go to a tire place absolutely ridiculous if you don't know what parts are in cars, you shouldn't be working in a auto shop by the way, the parts go in my transmission, lower engine area lmfaooooo!!! read more

Great shop professional, honest with a fair price. Todd and team take great care of my 2003 GMC Sierra for years. Recently the installed an engine in 2010 Scion XB the engine works great like new. They give a quote on service and stick to it great communication. I highly recommend this shop. read more

The Auto Shop took care of my recent service requested car issues with great efficiency, care and at a fair price once again! This is my second time with this shop and they have cemented themselves as my "go to shop"! Thanks again, everyone involved! Carl Tlumacki read more

check out engine reving when in gear and foot on break several attempts were made to cause the problem to occur without success. i appreciate the effort with a problem that is very allusive. did uncover a problem with the connection to the battery that might be causing the engine reving. Service was outstanding as always. Will definitely continue using the Auto Shop for all services. read more

After taking my car to several mechanics and even a dealership to fix my A/C problem, nobody could figure out the issue. Well these guys did and I couldn't be happier!! Quality work, friendly and knowledgeable people and not out to take your money, highly recommend. read more

We've had our truck in the shop several times over the past couple of years. Each time we were assured that the truck was in good condition except for the repair it needed at that time, and with the low mileage on the vehicle it would run for many more years. They even went on to say that buying a new truck was not a good idea as the new vehicles had more problems than trucks like ours. We're not naive and realized this was a sales pitch for their services, but with the price of a new truck we kept going back each time a new problem popped up. After 2 of the repairs we had issues that were minor problems with their work that we had to take the truck back in, which they did cover at no cost (even paid for the tow service once), which was good customer service since it did cause us inconvenience each time. Now, after spending approximately $5,000 total, we had another oil leak after taking the truck to a quicky oil change place. We went back to the oil change place and they checked the truck out for free and said we needed a new rear main seal. We then called The Auto Shop and they said it would be an expensive job but they didn't trust the other lube shop for a diagnosis and we should bring it into them to double check. We specifically asked how much that would cost and were told absolutely no charge to check it out. So we made an appointment, took it in and were called back with an estimate close to $2,000. We said we didn't want to put anymore money into it and would come and pick it up. When we went to get it they charged us a $100 inspection fee! If we knew that we would not taken it in. It's not so much the amount, but since we had already given them so much of our business and were told not to trust someone else's diagnosis and there wouldn't be a cost for them to look at it is just wrong. We should not have listened to them telling us from the beginning about how well built and reliable our vehicle was and that each repair we had done would keep it on the road for for years to come. We would have been better off saving the $5,000 and trading it in when it had lower mileage, especially now it has another major repair needed. Buyer beware of sales pitches and get it writing what the estimate will cost up front. Don't trust what people tell you!!! read more

Did and awesome job and went above and beyond! Even came in under the price they quoted! Took a couple of days to get in because they're busy and it's no wonder why they're amazing and reliable auto shop hard to find these days! Fix my air-conditioning right up! We will be back here for all our AUTO needs! read more

Joe and staff came to my rescue today when AAA failed me. My car battery was dying and after trying to get it replaced through AAA (they only do it limited hours and didn't even have my size battery!), I called the Auto Shop and was told to bring it in. Joe personally went to pick up the battery and had it installed within minutes! Thank you so much for going the extra mile! read more

My car barely started and they tested and replaced my Battery the same day without an appointment! My family has been doing business with them for over 30 years and they never disappoint. read more

Bruce was very helpful. He and his team did a thorough inspection. I originally wanted the brakes looked at because I think I could hear them squeaking, and he explained the estimated percentage I had left on the front and rear brakes and that it was really the drums that needed resurfacing. I asked him to personally drive my vehicle around and he found that the clutch would need to be soon replaced as I suspected. He kept me informed of all the potential costs of parts and work. Thank you. read more

The auto shop is a trust worthy and dependable place for your vehicle needs. They have always taken care of my car needs.

I've been taking my vehicles to the Auto Shop for several years now. I have not had a bad experience, they are pleasant to do buisness with. I have never been charged more the what was quoted. They are very fair and honest. read more

I dont know why my first review disappeared. Bruce and this wife has been fixing my cars, vans and trucks for approximately 15years. He's as good as they come!!!! He and his team are excellent. Even helped fix my sons go cart years ago. If you want the cheapest price for auto work dont come here!!!!! Prices are a great deal because things get fixed properly and stay fixed. If you have any problems with the work ,they will fix it again... quickly!!!! It is very hard to find a place like this ,they are quickly disappearing. You have happened upon the best shop in the valley that I have found after 35 years of owning cars, trucks and vans. Give them a try your car will be thankful!!!!!! read more

Recently had a lot of work done on my Honda Civic here and would highly recommend them for so many reasons! They were very approachable and communicated thoroughly during the entire encounter. They called me 3 times during the day to update me on what was going on with the car and if anything changed, even if the price wasn't changing just to keep me posted. When I picked the car up the price was more than reasonable for everything I had done and they gave me visual explanations of everything I had questions about. Would highly recommend and will be returning for any car needs! read more

Took my daughters car here for a few repairs. This is my type of shop. No nonsense, got me scheduled, made repairs and took care of the car. They even let me bring her car in a day early to make it easier for me to get it down there and locked it up on their property. The guys answer the phone right when you call and just get to the basics. Wish I found this shop a long time ago. I'll take all my cars here from now on. read more

As an out of towner traveling to Modesto to purchase a used vehicle, I needed to find an "auto shop" to do a vehicle inspection for me. I couldn't have made a better choice than The Auto Shop. Co-owner and crew did a thorough inspection at a very reasonable cost. Their shop and waiting room was immaculately clean and the overall experience was positive. If I was a Modesto resident I would have a shop that I would trust with all of my auto repair needs. Thank you Larry! I bought the vehicle! read more

Super knowledgeable, super trustworthy mechanic shop. Straight talk and good work in a timely fashion. Been going there for over 20 yrs...try it. Best anywhere! read more

Where do I begin? The Auto Shop is #1 in my book In Modesto!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Bruce and Larry and the mechanics at the Auto Shop as they are simply amazing. They've diagnosed my two cars and repaired it properly each time at a very affordable rate. They treat you like you're family and that really says something in the auto repair business today. The real test for me though was after a repair for my Toyota Avalon. A part that they replaced began to smoke a week after installation. I called up and told them what had happened, and they towed me from 1800 McHenry to their shop, went to Sacramento to get the new part I needed and had me back on the road in 4 hours the same day!! And when a problem arises, you can tell the good from the bad Mechanics just by the way they "handle it!" You know what Best part was? They didn't charge me for labor, parts or anything. They just took care of it. Who does that anymore?Well, they just honor their customers. Gosh if only all businesses could do this like they d? What a world it could be. Thank you so very much for keeping me driving Bruce and the Auto Shop Team. You guys rock:-) read more

The auto shop is a piece of mine if you care about your car great customer service and excellent mechanics I had a great experience with the auto shop read more

SHAME ON YOU!!!!!! I have been coming to the shop for years when I've had a problem with my vehicle Bruce was always honest fair and upfront but recently I had to bring my car to you and at that time I found out there was a new owner I describe what was going on with my car and within about three hours I got a phone call back saying that my head gasket was leaking and two spots because of a issue with my water pump to the tune of $2500 so I asked if what they were doing on the engine word take care of what I would have to do to have a tuneup and he assured me that that would be a totally separate job to the tune of over $400 I explained I had an extended warranty and they proceeded to tell me it was probably best to handle it myself pay the bill and get reimbursed because they don't like to have to deal with it because it usually takes too long so I talk to my son and shared with him what was going on he suggested to get a second opinion and I did there was nothing wrong with that head gasket the water pump was replaced and the thermostat was replaced as well they went through my insurance company and got everything approved the way it should be and with that I had them do other work on my car that I needed to be done since I knew they were honest and fair I could trust that they would only do the work that needed to be I am so disappointed in your business because I had use this establishment for years but I can guarantee you I won't be back and I will make sure that anyone that listens to me will hear what happened to me at your business once again all I can say is shame on you I don't know if it's because I'm a woman or because I'm older or both or if you're just rip off artist but I would've been out of my hard earned money for something that didn't need done very disappointing!!!!!!!!‼‼‼ read more

We have always brought our fleet vehicles to the Auto Shop and always get great service. They always let us know if they find something that is of concern to prevent future problems. We have high confidence in their service and repairs and have never had a bad experience. read more

Those guys are awesome. We used a few auto shops before we went to this place. Made me afraid of looking for a mechanic. They are honest. They dont look for fake problems to make your bill up. Their prices are fair And the service, nothing but perfect. I wish I'd met them way before. If i could I'd give them 10 stars. They are extremely polite, give you the attention you need, and they are fast. read more

Love this shop. First visit and will continue to use their service. Bruce kept me informed with multiple calls about things needing to be done. Repairs completed in the time, and at a cost, that was expected. Fair pricing and we are very happy we chose The Auto Shop. read more

They do an amazing job! Over 6k worth of work done on two vehicles and taking in a third. Highly recommended.

I recently needed a 100k mile service and they were more happy to accommodate a split service because of the availability of cash! They are a pleasure to work with. read more

Bruce is the best mechanic in town, probably in the world even. Fair priced, honest. I can do most of my own maintenance and repair, but when a job is too extensive for me, I only go to the Auto Shop! read more

Super friendly staff, reasonably-priced service, plus golden retrievers to greet you. Thumbs up.

Bought a new car almost two months ago, had to replace the starter, because it went out. During the process of replacing it, the battery had to be disconnected, what we didn't know was, disconnecting the battery causes the idle to get all messed up on the car we have. We couldn't figure out what was causing the car to die, so we brought it here. Everyone here was extremely helpful and nice, had everything fixed and back to normal in a few hours! Plus, Bruce looked over my Dads smog papers, because his truck won't pass smog, even after replacing almost everything, he let us know what is causing it to fail smog, just by going over the paperwork! Sadly the repairs will cost a lot of cash lol, but at least we know what's going on! Definitely will be coming back here, and I definitely recommend this place to anyone needing car repairs! read more

TheAuto shop are very honest mechanics. The friendliness people you would ever meet. They stand behind their work. Repairs are done in a timely matter. I would highly recommend The Auto Shop! read more

Without question The Auto Shop, is the foremost auto repair place in Modesto. Bruce and the Auto Shop mechanics are true professionals that make sure the job is done right. We've had two cars repaired and maintained with them over the years. You really know who your mechanic is, when a new part fails that they've installed and how they deal with the aftermath in taking care of you. This is the case with Auto Shop. They go beyond others. Very friendly, trustworthy and get the job done right. Two enthusiastic thumbs up! Thank you! 5-STARS! read more

I went to The Auto Shop to get a serpentine belt replaced that was squealing. The squeal is gone thanks to this place, and so is my embarrassing contribution to noise pollution . I also had a complete inspection/oil change where Bruce gave me a general diagnostic in addition to doing comprehensive routine maintenance such as tire rotation, fluid checks, pressure, battery. my car was inspected so that I can take care of it and keep driving it as long as possible. It's a family run business with an adorable, calm golden retriever that greets visitors and lays about. I recommend this as a place of integrity, honesty, quality work. The guys know what they're doing. Also fixed another problem i had with a coolant leak in another vehicle. To sum up, highly recommend. it's my joint, i'll always come here. read more
