Had the rear struts checked and replaced for hundreds of dollars less than other alameda shops. The service was excellent and done in a timely manner. Robert was very friendly and honest. The shop recycles everything they can like no other east bay shop. I will make this place my new car repair establishment. Can only highly recommend it.

When I brought my car in for the first time I had no idea I would actually come to love and admire the wonderful staff at Alameda Auto lab. I have brought my cars in for years and I totally trust these guys. The prices are fair and work is excellent. I am moving out of state and wonder how I can ever replace the. Thanks to the owner and staff.

Moved to the bay two years ago and finally found a good place to get my car worked on. Very knowledgable and happy to work with you if a problem persists.

We were traveling through town with 15-month old twins and got a fat tire. They were able to find a very tiny leak in our valve stem and replace it for $40 within an hour and we were back on the road. Proprietor was nice. The shop has some 20s/30s Fords and other classics hanging around you can look at while you wait.

Long story short: They'll fix your AC, it might break in about a year, and then they'll refuse to answer your calls afterward unless you call with a different number.I truly wish I had never come here. My AC broke right before a cross country move to Ohio. I asked them to fix it without getting a second opinion. Something was clogged and it ran me over two grand, which is reasonable from what I can tell. They fixed it and I got across the country just fine.My issues with them are the following. My AC broke a little over a year after the repair and I had to get it fixed again. I remembered they had some type of insurance policy, and so I attempted to call Robert. He didn't pick up, so I left a message. A week goes by and I don't hear from him. So I called again. I think I called him seven or eight times over the course of a few months, all within their working hours. He never picks up or calls back. So guess what, I one time after I call him I call I decide to call him with a different phone within a minute, and he picks up immediately! I can only assume this guy was dodging my calls which is super shady.

Bob has taken care of both of our cars. I really trust the mechanics here in diagnosing and fixing the issue. It's great to have a local mechanic that you can trust and really wants to do the best for you.

We had the worst experience at Alameda Auto Lab.We called up Robert and he talked through an issue of the engine light coming on. He said, "no problem", and that he can fix it. We dropped off the car on a Tuesday. Usually car repair guys call by the end of the day, but no call from Robert. In fact, no call on Wednesday. By Thursday, I called and left a message. But no return call. Finally on Saturday he calls and says provides an estimate for $450. I ask for the part number of the part he's installing and lookup on the dealer website what they charge. Robert charges $150 for a $43 dollar part from the dealer! What a mark up.Well, we were carless and in a bind, so we approved the exorbantly expensive repair. He said the car would be ready on Monday, but that he'd call to confirm.Monday came and went, no call from Robert. Then Tuesday went by with no call. Finally on Wednesday - a call! The car was ready.Came to pick up the car, paid, and then........ as we are driving away the check engine light came on. Issue wasn't fixed.Drove straight to the dealer. He replaced the EXACT same part for $43. Works great now.Stay away from this place.

If it's broken or not running well, these guys can help your vehicle come alive again. Also, they have a propane refill station. Excellent service.
