    They wasted no time working on my Nissan.
    Michael P.

    My car had built up air in the brake lines over time some how and all of a sudden the front calipers started applying pressure without me pressing the brakes. I didn't have time to fix the issue to I sent my car into this shop after being recommended by someone off instagram. The service was amazing!!! I got updates and most of all he wasn't scared to ask questions about my car and how my brake system was set up. ( I have a hydro e- brake as well as a upgraded clutch master cylinder) My brake pedal also needed to be adjusted which is what causing pressure being applied to my brakes. Robert got the job done in 1 day. I drove my car back home with a smile on my face. My car was also stored in a safe secure place as well as picked up in a clean environment. Thanks TLC!

    They used different bolts and didn't even tighten them down all over the place.  This caused the valves to burn up.  More harm than good.

    Garbage work, $2600 to replace heads. Took almost 2 months, after following up from the original quote of $1300 finally got the truck back. Noticed broken connectors and loose mismatched bolts & nuts everywhere, I told them the motor needs G05 coolant and they still put the wrong coolant in. Engine light came on after a week, they broke a bunch of vacuum lines and the engine started stuttering so I decided it wasn't worth taking it back to get ripped off for more money. After having the truck non opt for a year I decided to rebuild the motor myself during my vacation. Finding all kinds of horrifying things. If you need simple inexpensive things done like a smog or oil change you're probably going to be ok, I personally wouldn't go back due to ethics. If you need minor $50+ or especially major work stay away!!!!

    They aren't use to rust in Cali.

    Robert is truly one of the last old-school mechanics who is honest and has integrity and takes great pride in his work.

    Andy's Tires & Wheels - Stance Car Friendly

    Andy's Tires & Wheels

    (146 reviews)

    Went to Andy's a few years ago with a low tire. He helped me out and didn't ask for anything…read more Fast forward, my car needed a full set of tires and I had a couple of damaged wheels. Went to Andy's because he was the highest rated tire shop near me. He was busy with 3 cars when I came, but he still took a moment to greet me and when his hands were free, he came over to find out what I needed. He offered me the tires he had in stock that fit my car. He wasn't able to source used OEM wheels for my car, but he told me if I needed the exact tires for me car, I could get my wheels and tires and bring them there, and he would install them. He even shared where I can get them for a good deal. So a few days later, I returned with new wheels and new tires. Of course Andy was busy with two cars, but he got to me fairly quickly. Long story short, Andy masterfully installed my new wheels and tires and even prepared my old wheels and the barely salvageable 2 tires for me to take home (I might try to sell some and maybe keep some as backups). All with care, friendly service and excellent workmanship. I highly recommend Andy's Tires and Wheels. Truly a great guy.

    Andy is the best! Even with no appointment, he will do whatever he can to get you back on the road…read moreASAP. I needed help with mounting new wheels and tires on my SUV. I didn't buy the wheels nor did I buy the tires from Andy, but he still prioritized the work and explained everything clearly. I knew exactly what was needed, what was going to be done, and how much it would cost. I can't recommend this place enough. Friendly, fast, and very reasonable prices.

    Let's first speak of the frendlyness of each and every employee. Patrick's has very knowable…read moremachanice and the front desk underwrighters also can give you a great idea what the problem could be. Also, the quality of work is fantastic, well used cars things can go wrong, wee Patrick's stands behind all their work. Cost for work is very competitive in this marked, Patrick 's they call you back to see how everything. is holding up. Come on , only company I have come across that follows up how your mechanical problems are doing Not just once but two times. I would want to give 10 Stars

    I requested a quote through Yelp and my request was sent to multiple auto shops. I chose this…read morecompany based on location and called ahead to confirm they could do more than just read basic codes. I had already done my own diagnostics and knew the car was running rich. I had ruled out the upstream O2 sensor, catalytic converter (both new), MAP sensor, and fuel injectors. I explained all of this to Matt before bringing the car in. He assured me they could perform deeper diagnostics with their equipment. After dropping off the car, Matt called and told me they had "confirmed" exactly what I had already told them, and that the next step would be pulling spark plugs--for an additional fee. At that point, I decided to go elsewhere. What I don't understand is why I was still charged the full $85 diagnostic fee, plus a $4 hazardous materials fee and $3 shop supply fee. Plugging a car into a diagnostic scanner does not generate any hazardous waste--no fluids are drained, no chemicals are used, and no parts are replaced. There's nothing about a basic scan that would justify a hazardous materials charge. That kind of fee typically applies when disposing of things like oil, coolant, or other regulated waste, none of which occurred here. In the end, I paid $92, wasted time and gas, and learned nothing new. The most concerning part was Matt admitting he didn't even know spark plugs would need to be checked as part of further diagnosis.

    Great people Great prices. Highly recommended. Will be there soon for the other car. Stayed open…read morelate to replace our shredded tire on a late short notice.

    I have not used the business, but I'm telling you how crazy this is where I got a quick reply when…read moreI placed a request for a job from a person on the yelp. He was attentive to ask a lot of questions and then said he would get a quote for me the next morning. The next morning came I never got quote, and so I called the company itself. And can you believe when I called the company the person who answered the phone literally said they "have no idea what yelp is!!!" and I said "your business is on yelp and you don't know what yelp is!?" and he said "nope. better you come down here." it was so unbelievable that I drove my butt down there just to get the quote and the person in the front was so not friendly at all and had someone quote my car for a ridiculous price and i would leave my car there for four days on a simple scratch? I will never use this business based on just the business tactics from the beginning without the proper follow through as promised and all the way towards the end. I still don't know how he could say so adamantly and rudely on the phone "I don't know what yelp is" well, I don't know how you even got rated so many stars. I don't even want to put a one. But I'll do it because at least someone didn't reply me very fast when I put out the job request.
