Auto Repair in Laguna Hills, CA

“Long overdue review: Ken to the rescue when my 2005 Prius batteries decided to call it quits after almost 20 years. He put some new OEM batteries in (very quickly! think i only had to wait a day) and as he mentioned, my gas mileage immediately improved and the car’s been running great. If any other issues arise I won’t hesitate to seek his assistance again.”

“I’ve been taking my vehicles (Volvo, Honda, and Acura) to Ramon for over 15 years, and my experience has always been outstanding. I’ve referred dozens of friends, coworkers, and neighbors, and every one of them has been treated with the same friendliness, knowledge, and honesty that I’ve come to expect. My only hesitation in writing this review is that it might make it even harder to schedule my own cars in the future! I highly recommend Ramon (and understudy Clemente) without any reservation or caveat.”

“Pacific German is an outstanding shop. They refreshed the suspension on my 997.2 Turbo and it genuinely feels like a completely different car which is how it should have felt all along.

Shawn was also great to work with since he provided clear communication, photos, honest recommendations, and no upselling. He caught an age-related CV boot issue during inspection and handled it amazingly with OEM parts, fair prices and reduced labor since there was overlap with other work. Pacific German has earned my trust and will absolutely be my go-to shop going forward!”

“I highly recommend Hanlon for your automotive needs. Their customer service is second to none, they are quick and reliable. The pricing was far less than the dealership for a 10,000 mile service. They are my go-to for all my automotive needs.”

“I can't say enough good things about Cabot Auto Service! Every time I take my car in, they not only fix any issues but make me fall in love with my car all over again. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care for both the vehicle and customer are unmatched. Whether it's a routine check-up or a more complex repair, I always drive away feeling confident and satisfied. Cabot Auto Service has earned my trust, and I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to keep their car running like new!”

“Bryce saved me over $2000!! I had a dead FRM from a Mini Cooper, and my mechanic wanted to charge over $2000 in parts and labor. After some research, I found the FRM failing was common and came across Bimmerscan. Although the website was dated and made me a bit unsure, I could tell he knew his stuff, so I called and spoke with Bryce. He said he could fix the FRM, and a replacement wasn't even needed. I ended up driving 1.5 hours where I was met with kindness and a warm welcome from the staff sharing the address. Bryce carried that atmosphere throughout my short stay. It only took 20 min. for Bryce to fix the problem. He brought me back for a detailed explanation with energy and passion for his craft. On top of all this, he's just a great guy who loves what he does. I sadly had to leave and drive another 1.5 hours back, but the experience with Bryce and the staff sharing the address (shout out to Bob and his Coke decor!) made it worth the trek. The cherry on top was the part worked and comes with a lifetime guarantee!”

“Gary and his group over at 949 have been nothing but attentive in getting all of the information together for my automotive repair project. Once I established what I needed, he was able to get the most competitive price available at the moment. In addition, it was nothing but good communication. He was able to set realistic expectations for the length of time the service would take and at that point I'm scheduled for Friday.Thanks, Gary!Post Service Review (Updated 10/27/2023)I think a lot of us like to keep things simple in life.Gary and his group saved me from the "Dealer Trap" ("Oh, I got this car... The best thing I can do is take it to the dealer and they'll take care of me...")Take your car to 949 Auto Repair instead! Solid work at very reasonable prices.Solid ethically as well and clear communication all the way to their Master Technician (Mike).Great job guys!”

“So many auto shops are not the most honest business, especially with women. This place is different! Fair pricing, upfront info, and very friendly service. Shout out to Jeremy (I think that’s his name), who spent a lot of time with me explaining things and seemed happy to do so.
My smog guy also mentioned that the work they did installing a new catalytic converter was super clean. I think the people at this shop are honest people who take pride in their work, and that is hard to find!!”

“This place is great!
I was so nervous about having my out of state car smogged for the first time.
Oscar was very kind and explained everything to me.
Really quick service too! (And nice comfy leather couch to relax on while you wait.)
And yay, it passed!”

“Christian and the BWOC team always treat me right. Professional, communicative, fairly priced, and never pushy. I try and do the easy stuff on my 09 MCS, and leave the big stuff to the pros. If only these stupid Minis were just a little a more reliable.”

“Antonio has been our mechanic of 5 cars in the family and he and his staff are incredibly fair and generous. Antonio of able to diagnose and repair our vehicles better than any other mechanic in Orange County that I have been to. He’s very honest and if he can’t do the job, he defers it out but it’s very rare. Thank you for your service”

“Pulled my front bumper loose on the driver side with a parking guard. Mobile repair places quoted me up to $400 for repair. I decided to give Simons a shot. They fixed it flawlessly in 25 minutes for a whopping $25! He even topped off my coolant because I had a warning light on and didn't charge me a dime. Can't say enough good things about these folks. Great service and honest people.”

“The team at Corner 3 Garage are not only excellent mechanics, but exceptional human beings. They are honest, transparent and very fair with pricing. As a new car owner, I also appreciate how they never made me feel silly for asking questions and helped educate me on how to keep my car in good shape. Highly recommend them if you have a Nissan, Infiniti, Honda, Acura, Toyota, Lexus or Subaru - new or old.”

“If you want the best Porsche work done, from maintenance to complete engine over hauls, then you want to go to Vision Motorsports.I went to Vision and was greeted by Lori, the front office manager. She introduced me to Dwain Dement the owner. I enquired about a complete engine rebuild, and Dwain was so kind and proud of his shop and employees that he took me on a tour of his shop and completely explained all my options. What a shop. Complete crate motors are ready to be shipped worldwide. They are Porsche certified engine builders. They do all their rebuilds in-house. I was sold immediately.When I decided to move forward, Steve, the shop manager, was their to help me. He gave me all written upfront pricing and stuck to it. I can't say enough good words about Steve. He's upfront, honest, and really cares about his customers and his shop. He answered ALL of my questions during the engine build and even invited me to see important stages of the build, as they were proceeding. Nick, the lead mechanic, was awesome, too. He took time to answer all my questions, too. He totally cares about his customers, as well. The total experience was AWESOME, beyond my expectations. I'm a motor head, and ALL of the staff is too. I want to personally thank everyone at Vision Motorsports for making my car experience one that I'll never forget.By the way, I got their 3.8 liter big bore track package motor and put that in my 6 speed, cable throttle body 1999 996 Carrera , and it is "FAST" and has lots of "Torque". It puts a "BIG SMILE" on my face every time I drive it. Thanks again, everyone.”

“Went for a smog check for a company vehicle. Nice people took care of me instantly, probably because of the company I work for. However, speaking with the owner, I could tell why a company as big as the one I work for would do business with him, honesty.”

“THIS PEOPLE ARE GODLY TECHNICAL ENGINEERS IN GASOLINE AND DIESEL ENGINE AND MOTORS AND TRANSMISSIONS THEY OPEN THE INSIDE OF THE DEVICES AND PUT INSIDE EVERYTHING NEW NEVER USED ORIGINAL MANUFACTURER PARTS
VERY PROFESSIONAL IMPECABLE AND IMMACULATE THE LATEST STATE OF ART.
THEY ARE GODLY THE BEST OF THE VERY BEST”

“I am working on cars, so most time I know the problem when it’s come to repairs and I noticed they are honest with me since they tell the exact problem
I’ll definitely recommend this place 100%”

“These guys are the BEST. If you’re looking for service on your VW, this is the place to be. After thousands of wasted dollars with the dealership, I finally found a reasonably priced mechanic for my GTI. I had a coolant leak repaired for less than HALF of the quoted price from the dealership, got my oil changed, and got my front brake pads and rotors replaced, without breaking the bank. Very fair and reasonable pricing, and phenomenal customer service. Daniel is friendly and super helpful, and he makes sure you know exactly what’s going on and that your car is in good hands. Always a pleasure working with them as they are also very flexible with dropping off / picking up your car. I’m so glad that after 2 years of dealership shenanigans, I’ve finally found the right shop for my car. Highly recommend!!”

“These guys are second to none. I've had tires replaced on a few of my cars and I always bring my business to them. I used to go to Tucker tire but Amato has better prices and better service. I"m a veteran and the owner is patriotic and enjoys having conversations with clients who come in. He's got a great sense of humor as well. Thanks again for the great customer service.”

“Fast, efficient service and the car looks like a new! Service adviser Jaimie informed me that my car was completed sooner than originally planned. I really appreciate the timelines and the quality of work!”
