There was an exhaust smell coming through the cabin vents when the car is idle. Brian helped us jack up the car and actually showed us the exact spot where the front exhaust bellow cracked. He told us that he might be able to weld it but there isn't a guarantee it will be fixed 100%. He also told us he's seen the exact same problem a few years ago with the same car. He told us there is a recall on the front exhaust for this type of car. He suggested to call the dealership to see if the recall is still active. It would be $3000 to replace the whole thing for it to be 100% fixed. I am so glad he told us about the recall. It was actually an extended warranty for that exact factory defect. My car is being fixed now and Brian saved us $3000. There was also the cutest dog at Auto Saver. Brian told us he found him in a trash can two weeks before. He saved a dog's life and gave him a happy one. Brian is honest , friendly , knowledgeable and a kind soul. I will definitely come back here whenever my car has any trouble.

They prey upon those without automotive knowledge. Especially women and the elderly…read more Beware that the good reviews are mostly due to the previous owners. This new ownership is absolutely terrible and has sent our mental health down the drain dealing with their negligence. What was supposed to be a straight forward timing belt replacement, has turned into them lying to us and holding onto our car for over a month now. Not only will they not respond to calls, but they have lied saying "they needed a tool" and we have not heard from them since. They charged thousands for someone that should have been completed in a week and are not taking any accountability. We are now seeking legal advice because this has gotten out of hand and has caused us to rent vehicles, coming even more out of pocket. And the old owner has admitted that the crew made the car issues even worse than they were. If you care about your car, do not take it here. It's a bit further away but Burrogh & Sons in El Sobrante is much better and honest with their customers.

Absolutely fucking unacceptable experience. I would not trust this shop with my car again…read more I brought my car here specifically because of a leak, along with other work. They waited until I was basically standing there ready to pay 1770$ to tell me they DIDN'T FIX THE LEAK. Not when they diagnosed the car. Not while they had it apart. Not early enough for me to make an informed decision about whether I wanted to continue spending money there. Right before payment. They also originally quoted me 100 for an O2 sensor - this somehow became 150! They quoted me 1770$ to, and I quote because I made it clear what I wanted, "fix everything wrong with the car). I was fine with that. On the high side, but assumed they were using top quality parts. But the part that really pissed me off was the coolant. I was charged $170 for coolant service, yet after getting my car back, I checked the coolant myself and found the level was actually LOWER than I had previously observed it. So I paid $170 for a coolant-related service, got the car back with less coolant than I remembered it having, and still had a leak issue. That makes me seriously question whether there is a coolant leak that was misdiagnosed or never properly diagnosed in the first place, and what exactly my $170 paid for. Then I plugged in my own scanner after getting the car back and found an additional diagnostic code that was NOT present before I brought the vehicle in. I can't prove they caused that code, so I'm not going to claim they did--but finding a new code immediately after getting my car back certainly didn't inspire confidence. I spent a substantial amount of money here expecting competent work and basic fucking communication. Instead, I got my car back with the problem I specifically brought it in for STILL unresolved, coolant lower than I had previously seen it despite being charged $170 for coolant service, and an additional code showing up afterward. And yes, I contacted them directly before posting this. I gave them the opportunity to address this. If you can't fix something, SAY THAT BEFORE THE CUSTOMER IS STANDING AT THE COUNTER ABOUT TO PAY. Then to try and quote me 2500 dollars just for labor for a small leak. If you're charging $170 for coolant service, I shouldn't get my fucking car back and find the coolant lower than it was before. Worst part is, after reaching out to other mechanics, they gouged me on price relentlessly. I'm actually a mechanic myself, but was looking to get expert work done on a new purchase I really care about.I genuinely regret bringing my car here. Based on my experience, take your money and your vehicle somewhere else. Edit - The only resolution they offered was a free "diagnostic" which at the end of this situation was ridiculous. Why would I want to take my car back to you after this? And what do you mean "diagnostic?" I took my car in so you would check it. Absolutely insane.
