“I just recently arrived here in SD and I needed some service for my car. I only saw what top rated car mechanic in this area and let me tell you the ratings and reviews don’t lie. This 5 out 5 stars indeed. Phong was so pleasant to talk to and shared knowledge.”

“I have always felt that the only BMW you should own is one under warranty. Parts & repair at a dealership are astronomical. Driven SD is close to home, they have outstanding reviews here & on Yelp, so we decided to give them a try.
The reviews didn't lie: They are really that good. We have returned several times for repairs with great results. Their prices are very reasonable, with their estimates prior to doing the work, spot on. If there is something that they can't do, they will refer you to the right shop. That was our experience with a front end suspension issue. The BMW repair network is a valuable commodity!
We trust Driven SD to tell us what we need, with no BS, get a fair price, and the work is done expertly. We are extremely happy that we found Driven.”

“This place is #1 in So Cal! The absolute best customer service by Johnathan who makes the service wait pleasurable and the best mechanics around. Don't go anywhere else.”

“Billy did an absolutely wonderful job! I had no idea what to do with the big crack through my windshield and Billy came to my work and solved that issue completely. I didn’t even have to take time off to go to a shop, he came to my job site and finished the job so quickly. He was very kind, answered all of my questions, and was always prompt with his responses. I highly recommend him to anyone!”

“I’ve always felt spectacle about places or people working on my car as I’ve had bad experience in the past. Took some time to find this place after reading all the reviews.

Read the reviews and saw lots of positive feedback so o deceived to make an appointment.

Spoke to Amanda about setting up an appointment to diagnose it completely for my 1998 Toyota Camry.

Amanda called me later that day but before calling me she sent the quote via email so as we were talking I had a visual of what needed to be done.

On the quote it had a nice breakdown and even notes on the side that the mechanic recommended to do.

So we went with the repair to do the Control Arm, Stabilizer Bar Control Link, Inner and Outter Tie Rod back in April 2023.

Haven’t had an issue with it since and still have a year warranty left!

“Everyone at Frank’s does excellent work and they really stand by their customers. I have a 2022 Honda HR-V and 2003 Ford Focus SE and they have done amazing work on both cars. They’ve done timing belts, front suspension, brakes, control arms, and more on my Focus and all for really fair prices. I also had a situation where I got “new” tires from a tire shop they work with, but turns out they were from 2021. Joe (one of the managers at Frank’s) caught the tire shop trying to sneak out an old pair of tires on my car and took my car back to the tire shop and got me 2025 tires at no extra charge. They communicate well, get work done at a good pace, and are very knowledgeable. Very grateful to have found this place!”

“I was looking for a place to complete a quick oil change... And just an oil change - no upselling other services or any funky business. I found Stress- Free Auto Care. With the name itself, I had to try it out. They conduct a full detailed multi-point digital inspection of your car which will tells you what they suggest you get repaired. They give you their price point and you can choose if you want it done or not. The oil change was fairly priced and service was completed in under an hour - truly a stress free experience. Brad in the front office was nice. He set me up with my invoice, played smooth jazz in the lobby, and ensured that I was comfortable while I waited.”

“If you're looking for a highly skilled and knowledgeable Mercedes Benz repair team, then you're in the right place. I brought my Benz here and had everything that I needed done in an timely manner and a fair price. I delt with Julio primarily, he is a honest man with the upmost integrity. I won't bring my vehicle anywhere else from now because I trust Julio and his team. I recommend this shop to any Mercedes Benz owner in need of any type or repair.”

“Went here for a smog check to complete my car registration. The guy took my car right away and was done in 12-15 minutes. Let me know that it passed, the info would be sent electronically to the DMV, and gave me a certificate/receipt for my records. Quick and easy! $70 for a SUV”

“I refer to Alex, the owner of Value Auto Repair, Mr. 5 Star because of all his numerous 5 star reviews. I am a repeat customer & for good reason. Alex runs a very honest business that excels on quality & honesty at a fair price. You never have to worry about getting ripped off or have worked performed that is not necessary. What I love about VAR is that they are always nice enough to give me a ride home so that I can leave my car there all day if need be for repairs. I live close to the shop & have only one vehicle so it makes it convenient for me. You will not find a better shop in National City & the immediate surrounding area in my humble opinion. Highly, highly recommend!”

Sydney S. came with her positive attitude and great customer service. She let me know what the issue is and advised me on the solution.

Thank you Sydney S., Rodje, and Carlos for your good customer service! :)”

“The recent experience with Jesse and the team at Caliber Collision after being rear ended was impressive and appreciated. The speed and efficiency in handling everything was remarkable.

Beyond the swift service, Jesse treated us like family. The staff was attentive and kept us updated throughout the process. They took the time to answer all questions and made a potentially stressful situation easy.

The vehicle was returned in pristine condition. This combination of skill, professionalism, and kindness is rare, and recommending Jesse and the team at Caliber Collision on University in San Diego to anyone needing auto body work. They deliver a top-notch experience, making you feel welcomed and valued, and like family.”

“I absolutely love the care and attention to detail this shop provides! Brittany was amazing—her phenomenal customer service skills truly stood out. Even though I was stressed and worried about my car troubles, she managed to cheer me up with her humor and kindness, making the experience much more comforting.

The continuous updates were fantastic! Being able to receive updates via text was a huge help, as it allowed me to go about my day without worrying about missing a call. Their website is also super user-friendly, giving me a clear breakdown of charges and showing detailed photos of the damages/issues with my car. It gave me full transparency and peace of mind.

On top of all this, they managed to get my car fixed the same day! Their efficiency and professionalism exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this shop—10/10, they did not disappoint!”

“Fast and honest car service shop. Today, Bob found out the problem in a timely manner and suggested me to pursuing warranty from the dealership who installed the new but defective parts. Will be back for trustworthiness services!”

“Jay was very helpful over the phone with me and when the alignment and oil change were finished he took the time to explain the paperwork he provided about other items he noticed that needed attention. I went ahead and did the air filter too since the picture definitely indicated it was time. Price was good and my husband was grateful for Juan and his free shuttle service back and forth since we only have one car and we're not that close to the business. Thank you Jay for taking such good care of us! We'll be back.”

“I brought my car here for an estimate. Unfortunately, I decided to not go with the fix and decided I would just get rid of my car.

However, they were so professional and they were reasonable. The estimate they gave me I felt like was a reasonable amount I just wanted to get myself into a new car. I would highly recommend this place to anyone based on their customer service alone. If I ever need my car worked on, I will 1000% go to Smittys.”

“A great traditional transmission shop. Family owned with a long history. My service came in as estimated and in the time allotted. Their reputation is well deserved.”

“My new favorite shop !!
My co worker referred me to this location and I am soo beyond grateful he did !

Ronsen and his team Know what they are doing and are very reasonable with their prices

My car was making a loud unusual noise and he suggested I come in to get it checked out
My car ended up smoking and not working before I could make it to my appointment!
I was able to get it towed to the shop and Ronsen was able to give me a loaner car so I could still go to work while they worked on my car !

They were able to diagnosing and repair my car the same day !
They fixed my a/c compressor and replaced my belt
My a/c and heat work not which didn’t before !
The car runs smooth and quietly so I’m no longer embarrassed due to driving around with a loud strange sounding car

And I feel safer when I drive knowing all that is going on with my car

I love that the diagnosis fee is applied to your bill (aka free) if you get your repairs done here.

I love that they are knowledgeable, professional and affordable which is hard to find !

Side note
I also love that the staff is pretty nice on the eyes - really cute mehanics work here haha ?

But overall I totally recommend I will definitely be back !
10/10 ?”
