E & J Automotive is everything you want in a hometown auto shop - honest, skilled, and genuinely…read moreinvested in the community. Run by two hardworking young brothers, Erik and Octavio, this local gem is conveniently located in the shopping center on the corner of McDowell & Old Redwood Hwy, Petaluma (right by Starbucks, Burger King, 7-11, Wilco, and across the street from Applebee's). They took care of my car on the spot, explained everything clearly, and offered fair, no-pressure pricing. Their six-bay shop is clean, efficient, and even shares space with their friend, Alex's detailing business, North Coast Tintz & Detailing, so you can get a full car refresh in one visit. One unique feature they have is the Speakeasy Barber & Shave Parlor in the same building, also owned by one of the brothers -- clean, cool, and themed to match the shop's auto vibe. So, you can treat yourself to a fresh cut while your car's getting tuned up. Oh, and also the bathroom is nice and clean, too. When I asked about their work, one of the brothers said: "We just want to take care of our community." And they truly do. Support local. These guys are the real deal. Petaluma proud! It was one of the best experiences I have ever had with auto mechanic services. I'll be back for future services. Their phone number is: (707) 753-0259 Follow on IG: @e.j._automotive

Erik at E&J referred me to a program that helps low income people get their AC fixed. I was so grateful! I applied and was approved within 48 hours. I returned to E&J and because I live not too far away, Erik gave a ride home. On the day of service, the same professionalism was provided. My A/C now works great! Erik was prompt, efficient, honest and trustworthy. The cost was fair and reasonable, and I got great value for my money. I will definitely return to these guys again! They are a little bit hard to find, so take the Redwood hwy exit and make the last right turn into a long driveway at the end of the Wilco shopping center.

He informed me that with a synthetic oil change you got a free tire rotation and full diagnostics. I'm like really?! Ok! We made an appointment for 1:00pm next day. It's over 90° in the shade here today. I drove 9 miles, 5 on the freeway. I get here, go in expecting I'll have to entertain myself and keep my dog cool for a few hours close by and the guy behind the counter goes May I help you? I'm all Hi I have a 1 o'clock appointment for an oil change. He looks at me as if the wall behind me suddenly grew a big fat set of lips and said it. First response was we don't make appointments. Then he says Are you sure you have the right shop? I showed him the numbers I called and he says We only have one number and I'm the only one that answers. Hmmm yea so I dial the first # and it rings the phone in front of him. He says we'll that's us.....who did you talk to? Dude, you if your the only one answering. He says he never spoke to anyone about an appointment and besides they are booked 4 days out. Wait...what? But you sa.....ok whatever. So I call the 2nd # and Lo!! Behold the phone on the other counter rings. He looked at it with an "Well shucks by golly will you look at that!" expression. A little more denial&questioning and it felt like when the hands raised palm up on either side of that Alfred E. Newman look, it was a foregone conclusion. I'm wrong and nothing Pilat can do but wash his hands of it. I'm sitting in the parking lot hotter than the hood of my car. Random jokers answer the phones here periodically I guess and write checks the shops ass can't cash. This could be a fluke once in forever thing but something tells me there's something incompetent at Northbay Automotive 929 Peraluma blvd S. The parking lot is FULL of junk RVs and crap cars too.

I called 3 times throughout the day to no avail! From the moment I called Northbay (on PB South-not the shop with poor reviews) and spoke with Ryan, I got better customer service than I had expected. He kindly answered my questions, got me on their calendar on the day and time of my choice-not first come first served while never knowing how long the wait would be, like my last auto repair shop. Northbay took care of everything from oil change, filter, complete annual service, including hoses, brakes, brake pads, suspension, inspections and battery test, tire rotation, rodent repellent device purchase and installation, purchased and replaced the rubber cowl guard that rats destroyed, smog test and certificate. My last auto shop sent me to a crowded, smoke filled run down place with no seating for a smog check. Ryan also gave me a 15% good customer discount on the labor even though I hadn't been there before. I believe the cost was equal to the extensive professional service they provided. When I brought my car in, one of the guys even gave me a ride home on his way to pick up something (5-10 minutes) because my husband was out of town. When Ryan called the next day to say my car was ready, my husband had just returned and dropped me off just minutes before closing, though Ryan had offered to send an Uber to my home in case I needed a ride. When I received a request to rate them, I gave them 5 x 5 stars which was well deserved. I've already recommended them and will continue to do so.

I was having trouble with my tire that they patched twice and so I called to see if they would take a second look without charging me. I was only asking if they would so I could decide whether I wanted to used them again or start fresh with someone else. To be clear I was not insisting on it, I was just asking and the person on the phone started, literally, yelling at me about how they needed to get paid. I tried to explain that they had already patched the tire twice, the last time a week ago, and I was happy to pay for a new puncture but if they did not think I should have to pay if it was not repaired properly and after a lot of back and forth he said fine, and then hung up on me.
