“Brought in my 2019 Honda Accord because there was a loud scraping noise behind my tire. They quickly diagnosed it as a bent dust shield that was rubbing against my rotor. They were able to bend it back and informed me there was no damage to the rotor. Everyone was super friendly and explained everything on detail. Great customer service and a fair price!”
“We had a complete service on my husband 2014 Tundra they provided great service, easy drop off left the keys in a box at 6:00 am, they called us in few hours about what they saw etc. we ok’d work got the truck back the same day. No issues so far
This is the 2nd time we have used them and will continue to come back. .”
“We LOVE On Schedule and trust them with all our cars. We've been coming here for years, bringing all our old and cranky cars and they always take care of us. There have been many times where they have provided checks or inspections at no charge and will tell us honestly if things are wrong or are NOT wrong, which is so important in a mechanic. We trust them, they are quick and friendly with service and we have 0 complaints.”
“Live in the North County area and have been searching for a trustworthy mechanic as my wife's car needed some work. Copeland was highly recommended so we took the car in yesterday, and Doug was super friendly and helpful. Had the issue diagnosed within the hour and car back by the afternoon. If you are looking for a shop you can trust, this is it!We will definitely be going back with any future needs.Services: Steering & suspension repair”
“My regular mechanic was a bit flakey and unreliable so I was in need of a good trusting mechanic near my house and found this place. Juan always answers the phone, always at the shop and is ready to work. I can tell he is knowledgeble, experienced and love his profession. He is so very charismatic person and also friendly amd respectful. He always explained the details and the process extra well to me in English since Im a female with less mechanic knowledge. He charges very fair and clear. Im grateful to have a good mechanic I can call anytime. Thank you and I will recommend to my friends family :)”

Transmission Repair
“If you are looking for not only an excellent ,affordable and honest mechanic look no more the guys at Best Way Engine have service my cars for over Nineteen years and are all off the above and more the owner Sergio and his boys are highly recommended .”
“My transmission gave out 70 miles away from home, late on a Saturday afternoon. Tony went above and beyond to repair my transmission, was very transparent about the issue and the pricing, and kept me updated throughout the whole process. Highly recommend”
“Great communication , kept me informed daily. Performed a detailed analysis of the issues and presented options to resolve the problems. Overall great experience”
“This AAMCO repair shop treated me very well. They were very helpful and communicative. I thought that my Transmission was going bad, but after a complete inspection they determined that my transmission was fine and then they helped point me in other directions to determine the problem with my car. After all of that, they refused to charge me for the diagnostics. I highly reccomend them for any transmission issues.”
“Great guys who are super knowledgeable and do amazing work, also they are extremely fair. They went above and beyond to help me out. Couldn’t thank them enough. Highly recommend.”

“I am so happy I found Kotter’s in Escondido I’ve been traveling in my vintage VW Bus. I found Kotter’s it was recommended on a local San Diego Volkswagen Facebook page. Grateful for that post. I took my bus to Kotter’s they not only fix the issues that I had but nonchalantly fixed an issue with my gear oil leaking that I was told by two different mechanics it would cost me around 2000 dollars. They fixed all my issues well below that price. If you have a love of these old buses and have one yourself do yourself a favor and take it to Kotter’s you won’t be disappointed.”
“Excellent repair shop they repaired my van my car. I recommend them highly. Tony does a great job he has A really nice office service/manager named Cynthia quality place for a great price”
“Daniel is very nice and responsive to any issues I might have with my 2011 Rav4. He books the appointments and makes sure that the operation runs smoothly. I am sure that the reason my Rav4 it is still running is because this repair shop is the best in San Diego. They listen to you and try to find the issue (if you have one). They book their appointments with time to spare so the mechanics are not late giving you back your car. Since I am in my 60's and don't have time to worry about my car, I find Daniel and the repair personnel to be very trustworthy and responsible. They even tell you about future concerns that may need to be addressed. I cannot recommend Alternative Automotive in Escondido more that I already have. Have your car(s) serviced here and you won't be sorry.”
“I have taken multiple Porsches in for repairs and sorting and this team has a top attention to detail. Be confident that these folks will take great care of you and your car.”

Transmission Repair
“I was working on my Mercedes 722.6 transmission and broke the plastic clip in the valve body that connects to the internal shift lever. This part is not offered by Mercedes. I bought a donor valve body from Z&A. He talked me through some technical details and was very informative and helpful. I would take my vehicle to this shop!”
“Fantastic!! My 2007 sienna needed a major tuneup with check engine light on. This is a major undertaking as many parts have to be moved to access some spark plugs. Also needed a new MAF Air flow sensor for better fuel mileage. This project normally takes several hours, but Jose and his staff had it done in three hours. He told me exactly how much it would cost and gave me a fair deal. Very experienced and knowledgeable about vehicles and would highly recommend this shop for all your vehicle repairs.”
“I had a great experience at Derek Auto Repair. The team was professional, honest, and very knowledgeable. They clearly explained what was wrong with my car and didn’t try to upsell anything unnecessary. The pricing was fair, and the repair was completed on time.
What I really appreciated was their transparency and communication throughout the process. It’s hard to find a shop you can truly trust, but Derek Auto Repair definitely earned mine.
Highly recommend if you’re looking for reliable and honest auto service!”
