I've been a loyal customer for over 5 years since moving to Fallbrook. Always honest, always upfront and always willing to get me in for emergencies when I can't wait for an appointment. I have called the shop for advice even when traveling out of state to be sure I wasn't getting taken advantage of. Greg, the owner is top notch when it comes to ethics, service and reliability. He uses quality products and is always willing to work with my time and my budget. Necessity for a single gal!

Cesar is a very resourceful and helpful mechanic. It took a bit of back and forth to get an appointment made since his schedule seemed booked out - but in exchange for not being able to make it over immediately he suggested some solutions over the phone that I could try on my own to try and fix my cars issue. I wasn't successful with the suggestions and he eventually came over within a few days to my house and helped resolve the issue himself.Fair prices and a really nice guy, was about 25% lower than other mobile mechanic quotes for the same work.

We have taken our European AND Japanese make cars to Greg for a few years now. Always reasonable and fair on the minor things we had done. Have my 09 Tacoma in now, getting a new clutch, flywheel, valve cover gasket, and general tune up. Greg has been great about keeping me informed as to what he found, etc., and provides options. Price is more than reasonable for the amount of work that needed to be done. Highly recommend Greg and Village European Auto. A good, honest mechanic is golden!

I had an issue with my Jeep steering wobbling at low speeds so I pulled my front right axle shaft out and couldn’t for the life of me get the you joint out so I took it to Ceser and even when he was fully booked he helped me out and took the old you joint out and put the new one in for me really quick! He’s a really good guy and very smart, knows all the tricks of the trade!Service: Steering & suspension repair

I was in search of a mechanic and found Cesar via a local Facebook group, he was very responsive and was able to look at my car right away which I was impressed with. I explained to him what was going on with my car and reiterated a few times that my car kept waking up with a discharged battery despite having a new battery and I had gotten the alternator tested a few times and was told the alternator was fine. Cesar insisted that it was the alternator that kept draining the battery, I was hesitant because I had already been told twice by two different people that the alternator was fine and it could be something electrical. Whatever, I went ahead and agreed to let him change out my alternator and perform the work - my car was fine for 2 weeks and then BAM it dies again. I contacted Cesar to let him know there was still something wrong with the car he agreed to take a second look, I followed up with him the day we agreed for and he kept pushing out the date and stating he was “busy” which I understand but was bothered by the lack of follow up and aftercare service he kept giving me the runaround every time I would call him to ask when he was going to look at my car because obviously the issue was not fixed my car was doing the exact same thing. I was very upset and let him know I did not think it was the alternator to begin with and he said I needed to stop going against him because he showed me proof (granted I don’t know anything about cars) i kept asking for an ETA of when he could look at my car and he was not able to give me one saying it could take “days” anyway I took my car to a shop and right away they let me know it was an electrical leak. Disappointed that I paid for a new alternator when I didn’t need oneService: Battery

Literally angels come in all forms. And Caesar definitely was ours on our way out of SanDiego. We had a serpentine belt break on our box truck. Caesar agreed to work on our truck that night, although we had to wait for belt until next morning. Caesar went above and beyond,from keeping our huge truck in his driveway. Literally drove us to a hotel at midnight. Caesar your are a blessing and we are so very grateful for everything you did for us. You are an amazing person. We can’t thank you enough.

Ceaser at Village Auto is hands down one of the best around, has always been professional, knowledgeable, and honest maintaining my vehicle. I am shocked by the only derogatory comment out of all the ones posted, I’ve been a long time customer and never have seen any evidence of him being under the influence in any matter. Also, after making conversations that eventually led to the discussion of tools he did mention that a previous worker of his indeed did steal from him. He showed me surveillance video of the individual, who is no longer welcome, stealing from him as well as snooping around his place of business.Ceaser is a hardworking individual who I completely trust with my vehicle as well as my fiancés, he’s always been more than fair on pricing and has done amazing work.

The night before we were to leave for a camping trip, the power steering pump went out on our tow vehicle. I looked up mobile mechanics and ended up connecting with Caesar around 8pm. He agreed to juggle his morning schedule to fit us in. He arrived on time and was able to confirm the diagnosis of a failed power steering pump and went to work on the repair. He was done by noon, which was the time we needed to depart for our trip. Two months later, the vehicle is still running like new. Caesar was a life saver (or should I say, vacation saver!) and we could not be more please with this workmanship, pricing, and customer service!Service: Steering & suspension repair

Better off going to Mercedes if you want your repair done when it's scheduled and not paying for their learning curves. I've taken my car in for a simple repair and it ended up taking 10 days because only one mechanic can work on my car and he was out ill. No phone call or anything to tell me they had personnel issues and it would take longer than expected. Then when I was scheduled in for another repair, I got we will get to it when we can even though it's scheduled for that day? That doesn't work when you have a customers car. At least Mercedes gets the work done the same day.

Caesar is one of the most honest and hard working mechanics I’ve ever come across! It’s hard to find a mechanic who will take care of your car like it’s their own and Caesar is one of the few. He will be honest with you if there is anything that he’s not familiar with and doesn’t bullsh*t you. Highly recommend!Service: Transmission
