My vehicle was vandalized and the insurance company said it wasn't worth saving. Long story short the vehicle became a salvage and I needed to have a lights & system check to get the vehicle approved at the DMV. Most auto repair/ smog stations do not provide this service. Trust Auto Repair is certified to do this service. I came in with no appointment and they took me right in. The car passed and TRUST AUTO provided me the PASS paperwork and the DMV processed the paperwork. The price was $200, standard for this service. I am always a little uneasy going to an unfamiliar car place, but everyone was polite and I do give them my stamp of approval. read more

I have never written a review before, but omg this shop is amazing. I needed my side passenger mirror fixed as it was cracked and Mike answered all my questions efficiently and he gave me the best price. Everyone was quoting me about $1,000 which is way over priced and Mike did it for less than a fraction of that price and it's brand mirror as if never ever happened. Not only that, but it did not take long to get fixed thank god for shops like yours I will forever go to you if I need something fixed. read more

Me and my family have taken 5 cars to Trust and they always provided excellent service and repairs over the years. They won't overcharge you and have been the only trustworthy mechanics I have ever used. I recently messed up and brought my car to another mechanic out of weekend convenience, and I paid big for that mistake. I brought my car back to Trust and they fixed my car right away with a smile.

Trust Auto Repair - Auto repair - Smog Check Stations Near Me - El Cajon, California

I had a great experience with this shop getting a full clutch replacement on my Evo X. Mike was quick with an estimate, friendly, up front and I feel like I can trust him. They got the car in late on a Saturday, and got the clutch replaced before 5:00 on Tuesday. Not bad for a job this extensive and needing to order parts. My final price ended up being less than quoted and I was never pressured to replace unrelated parts. Trust auto was not the lowest quote but by the end of the job were right there with the best priced shops and I doubt I would have received the same service and piece of mind elsewhere. The car is driving smoothly and I'm confident I can take it back without any fuss if I have any issues. Mike had recommended another tow company but I ended up using ASAP towing who quoted me one price and charged a higher when they arrived saying that I hadn't informed them my car was AWD when I had. I wish I would have used the tow company Mike recommended. I really do highly recommend Trust Auto. read more

went for brake and light check, failed me in five minutes, reluctantly gave me $50 of 125 back, wouldn't promise to put towards reinspection. Didn't even finish inspection of brakes once realized one wheel had a leaky seal. Got it fixed myself then went to Jess Harris instead, only $90 and guaranteed pass or no cost. read more

THE ABSOLUT BEST. are you kidding me, why is anyone going any place else. Honesty, integrity, fair prices. How can anyone else measure up to these guys! They help you and don't try to sell you things you don't need. They have been around longer than anyone else for a reason, they do better than good work. Do yourself a favor and just build a relationship with this place. They are like family. I have been taking all my cars here for longer than you have been born. My kids now take their cars, and their kids will too. I don't' know anyone else that can turn a sad situation into a happy one like this place. All my friends have stopped going anywhere else, you should too. I am not joking, they are that fair and good. You can't say that about most repair places. read more

Excellent service and the absolutely best mechanic I have seen or ever used. Michael (owner) is a top notch mechanic and his shop is really far above and beyond all other shops I have ever used for my car (older Nissan Murano)..

The air conditioning in my car went out a few days ago, and I called and spoke with Mike the owner who surprisingly made himself available to look at my car the following day, on a Saturday..I was surprised as there regular days of business are M-F.. My husband and I arrived at the shop, and Mike promptly diagnosed the problem, a leaking hose. What I really was impressed with was his openness and transparency by showing my husband where the leak was by doing a leak test in his presence. Mike ordered the hose needed and the car was ready to go within a couple of hours. The price was very reasonable. Mike is a helluva nice guy as well as honest and trustworthy...I highly recommend! read more

The gentleman who greeted me was extremely polite. Fred worked with me on deciding what actually needed to be painted on my little 1999 truck. We decided together that painting the cab would give me the look I hoped for without breaking my budget. When I picked up the truck exactly 8 days later, it looked beautiful. The cab matched the existing paint perfectly. I was glad I went with the new headlights he suggested, which were worked into the very reasonable price. I highly recommend these guys for a quality paint job at a reasonable price. read more

I am giving zero stars people BEWARE took my 2001 Lexus GS 300 in because it cut out on us while driving my husband was referred here they never touched our car before they said we needed a new alternator, there was an oil leak and they recommended a new timing belt we got everything fixed they recommended 4 months later my car started making a weird noise out of the blue oil light came on and car stalled out. Had it towed back to trust auto in El Cajon they said a piece was broke in the engine had another mechanic look at it two days later they said it was because there was a major oil leak these fuckers made the oil leak worst and never fixed the issue be careful when having major work done on your high end car here they will fuck you No I sold it took an L and got a new car I will never come back there again to little to late and like I said anyone who has a high end luxury car beware I have nothing to lie about should have just towed to Linda vista to my mechanic in the first place my mistake that I've learned from don't please save the bull shit for someone else read more

Mike the owner and his team did great work on my Ford Focus. I had taken my car to a Ford dealership for my regular oil change.
