Gary is the best! Said it years ago and I'll say it again, he is the only mechanic that I speak to and trust with my cars. I have been going to him since I lived on 3rd street years ago. My most recent visit was because I had my catalytic converter stolen. Gary was quick to diagnose what happened over the phone. He's helped me with the time it took me to pay for that insane expense...and for that I'm forever thankful. I always return and will always recommend friends :) truly appreciate.

Gary was so helpful and fixed my car up according to the recommendations I got from the Subaru dealership when I took it in for a recall. He saved me so much time and money! He was also very informative and trustworthy. I will definitely take my car in to Aloha again!

Our car broke down we were desperate, someone recommended this place, what a blessing!! They were able to take our car ,did their best to fix it but couldn't finish it on time ,they wanted to fix it well. Next day it was ready and we were on our way home.I wish it was closer to LA we would definitely take our cars to them!! Very trustworthy, would definitely recommend!!

Brought my truck into them for an o2 sensor and door issue. They looked at and and let me know the sensors were good, but since the battery went dead I had to drive it a certain way to reset. I pulled out my checkbook to pay, and he said no charge. They didn't need to fix anything, even though they had it for 2 days. This company is honest. I will be back. Rare that you see honesty in this industry.

On the road traveling from Tucson, my Honda was overheating, so I was in a bind. Even though auto shops are all super busy, Gary got me in the very next morning after I called. Fixed my car right, for a good price, and had me back on the road by 2:00. Great communication, great service, would definitely trust this shop again. Thanks Gary!

I can’t say is the best auto shop in Encinitas, only because I haven’t tried them all. But I can say that this place is, hands down, the best shop I have ever been when it comes to customer service. The guy who opened the shop (Gary…I believe), gave me a quote on the phone about 4 days before my appointment. The price was fair (compared to Midas, that wanted to charge more than double). Since you enter the premises, you get the feeling that you won’t be fooled or scammed. The whole experience felt great. You can really feel you’re dealing with mechanics and not sales people, who will tell you anything just to keep your money. In a world full of lies, I truly respect and honor the honesty of this auto shop. I took my car for a throttle body replacement. It took them 4 or less hours to repair. My car now feels better and the check engine light is finally gone.I would definitely take my car here again. I feel comfortable coming here. You have gained a valuable customer that will spread the good word and recommend this place to all the neighbors.Thanks again for the great service! It won’t go unnoticed.Services: Auto exhaust system repair

Gary is the best. He is an honest genuine guy, he is punctual and more times than not your car is done early (when you are early or on time). The location is convenient, surrounded by coffee shops or a walk to the beach/ocean. I get my car oil changed by him and will be getting rear breaks replaced soon.
