“Thank you, Fernando at Motor City Lexus of Bakersfield, for making the transition so easy and smooth. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. I would also like to thank Natalie for making the paperwork process effortless. You were both friendly and professional, and I would highly recommend you!”
“I went in to get my muffler cut off and got tips put on my 97 suburban and it sounds amazing the people were very nice and friendly I definitely recommend this place they get the job done”
“They began repairs almost immediately after paperwork was signed. They kept continuous communication about my cars status (i.e break down, repairs, paint shop) through a link, and text messages. When they called me and left voicemails they left detailed messages about my information and what they were calling about making the return call easy to navigate. They gave me a prompt date for my car return and actually finished before the time line. They also accommodated me by coming to my house when they needed my spare keys for reprogramming and dropped my vehicle off at home for me! They also did a pretty thorough cleaning which I'm happy about because there was glass everywhere. The repairs look wonderful and my car looks just as it use to. Overall, it's one of the better experiences I've had with a repair shop.”
“I just moved here from Ventura County earlier this year and was looking for a reputable mechanic with good prices to service my Honda Civic. The customer service I have received so far has been unmatched, these are good honest dudes that know what they are doing. Chill and respectful mechanics. A true gem, were lucky to have them on the East side.”
“I used this place 2 times over the last 10 years and they did a great job for a great price! They were quick too! They are friendly and pleasant to deal with! Good job boys ?”
“Very Knowledgeable and super understanding. I had an ignition switch replacement. It ended up being around 80.00 dollars less than quote. They are super nice and very patient....at least in my case. Very happy!✨❣️”
“Thank you, Joanna, for your excellent and prompt customer service. I received updates throughout the time my car was under her care. They delivered my vehicle at my convenience, which was a huge help. My car was returned cleaner than when I dropped it off. Highly recommend.”
“Terrific buying experience. I highly recommend Porsche of Bakersfield. I purchased a 70 year old classic that they worked to ensure was perfect before and after I took it home.”
“????? 10/5 STARS – A Tire Shop So Good, It Restored My Faith in Humanity
Let me be perfectly clear: I did not walk into a tire shop. I walked into a sanctuary of kindness, rubber, and miracles. This place doesn’t just fix tires — they fix souls.
From the moment I rolled (literally) into the lot with a tire flatter than my last relationship, I was greeted like royalty. Not just a “hi,” not just a “how can we help?” — no, no. I got a warm smile, a bottle of cold water, and a level of compassion that felt like I had just been adopted into a family I didn’t know I needed.
The staff didn’t just look at my car. They listened to it. One of them even crouched beside it like a horse whisperer, gently patting the fender and saying, “We’ll take good care of you, buddy.” I’m not saying the car smiled — but if it could’ve, it would’ve cried tears of joy.
They replaced my tire like it was heart surgery. They explained every detail to me like I was their favorite cousin who had just come home from college. They didn’t upsell, guilt-trip, or rush me. In fact, I’m convinced they would’ve paid me to make sure I left happy.
And when I tried to tip them? They REFUSED. One of them literally said, “We’re just glad you’re safe.” I almost cried. I did cry. And I’m not even ashamed.
This place is not just a tire shop — it’s a hidden temple of integrity and compassion. A cathedral of customer service. If Yelp had a “tearfully grateful” rating, I’d give them all of it. I now believe that if everyone ran their businesses like this shop, world peace would be achievable by Tuesday.
If you’re reading this and wondering if this is the place to go — stop wondering. This isn’t just the tire shop you want. It’s the tire shop you deserve.
And now, the man — the myth — the legend himself:
CODY TALBOT.
Store manager. Tire whisperer. Customer service sorcerer. Cody didn’t just help us — he uplifted us. You could see it in his eyes: this man runs his shop like it’s sacred ground. He greeted us with calm, kindness, and confidence, like someone who truly cares about people, not just cars.
He explained everything clearly, treated us with dignity, and made us feel like family — the kind of family you actually like.”
“My experience at Motor City Lexus of Bakersfield was excellent. The staff were all very friendly, courteous, and professional. I felt like a valued customer. I would recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a vehicle.”
“I was in a rush I was coming from Washington State to drive all the way to Houston Texas and ended up breaking down in Bakersfield California I googled the cheapest mechanic near me and it was Amaya, when I got there I had already talked to Salvador over the phone and explained to him my situation he was very understanding and very considerate he ended up checking my water pump and telling me that was not my problem My problem was my radiator and he had the most affordable price out of all the other places that I called and the best customer service, he helped with my radiator and put air in my tires and breaker fluid
If you're in an emergency situation and you need help with your car and are on a low budget I would give Salvador”
“I would highly recommend caliber collision, the staff. George and everyone that played a part in my satisfaction. I truly appreciate each and every 15 stars across-the-board.”
“So thankful I ended up here. I had the misfortune of purchasing a Decked drawer system for my 2021 F-150 at their competition. There are only 2 authorized installers in Bakersfield. Warning...stay away from the other guys!! They are the D+ clown squad. They damaged the drawer system while installing it. I immediately contacted the Deck company and Addie was outstanding and directed me to California Trucks to have an inspection done. I hooked up with Matthew and Halie and they totally hooked me up. They disassembled the drawer system, found the damaged hardware and worked with Decked and to get new hardware sent asap. Much thanks to Addie and Leo for their professionalism at Decked. Matthew and Halie at California Trucks were a God send playing the middle man and standing by all their work when they really didn't need to since the clowns at their competitor did the install. I am one happy customer and will not let anyone else touch my truck. If you want honest, hard workers that won't settle for less than your total satisfaction this is the place to go. Every person named in this review are the best and deserve a raise for going above and beyond. Thank you all.

“Hands down,the most honest, resourceful, & knowledgeable car audio business, I've ever experienced. I've personally had been doing business with there staff for years. They're not just car stereo installers, they're mobile audio INGINERS! I've never had a problem with any of the work they had done for me. I've always walked away feeling completely satisfied, from the first time,& all time with any of the work they had performed for me. I would recommend them to anybody, & anyone that's in the market, for anything related to car audio components. And if you do,I will bet that you will feel, the same way I do, about there service's that them boys down there provide. #onecompletelysatisfiedcustomer. Eric Cox”
“Amazing work, best price in town. They beat dealership price everytime. Fast repairs from experienced mechanics. The owner was a genuine person who explained me my car in detail. So helpful. Thank you B&B!!! Don’t underestimate, this place is reliable? I found them on instagram: @benzandbeemerauto2023”
“Pensingers has an extensive inventory of trailer parts, and they are good people who take great care of their customers. I am on a cross-country trip with no tools and in a tough spot with a missing skylight cover on my cargo trailer. Larry, the manager, knew what I needed and kindly offered to have it installed for me. Josh took meticulous care when installing the vent cover and helped me with some other hitch issues. He is clearly an expert technician and a very kind person. Thank you Larry and Josh!”
“The owner went as far as delivering me 2 batteries to my stranded cars to my house in Fresno California that's what I called battery service appreciate it so much and I only buy batteries from S And N for all of my cars”
“I came to the battery shop because my Honda dealer told me I needed to replace my battery. Turns out the battery was only 11/2 years old and did NOT need replacing. I am so grateful for the honesty of this wonderful shop and its employees .This will be where I go when I need a battery and highly recommend them!”
“Repair took a little longer than expected but Motor City compensated by filling the car with gas and having it completely detailed. These are good people who not only provide good service and excellent workmanship, but actually care about customer satisfaction. Very pleased.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Stars
I recently took my truck to JJ’s Auto Body for a paint correction and a few additional touch-ups, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, Jose was professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about his work.
The paint correction came out beautifully and brought the shine and depth back to my car’s finish, and it looks better than it has in years. He also took care of some minor dents and scratches, and you’d never know they were there. This is a truck that is 11 years old, has black paint, has endured the Central Valley heat, and still looks as good as the day I drove it off the lot.
If you’re looking for a trustworthy, skilled body shop that delivers excellent results, I highly recommend JJ’s Auto Body. I’ll definitely be back if I ever need more work done!”
“IKarz is my go-to place for any automotive electrical problems. They rebuilt the LEDs in my gauge cluster, and it looks awesome. They also diagnosed and resolved the underlying issue that required all my modules to be reprogrammed. Thanks to their work, my car is back up and running perfectly.
Omar and his crew put in the time and effort to tackle one of the most complex problems I’ve ever had with professionalism, transparency and fairness. I Highly recommend them!”
“I love going to Jim Burke Quick Lane. They take my car in at the appointment time and out in an hour. The staff at the front desk are very pleasant and professional.”
“Excellent and easy! Nate did not pressure and focused on what vehicle best fits me. Turns out the Nautilus was perfect, I love the built in scent diffuser feature!”
“As a woman is very hard to find a good mechanic that won't rip you off, and with great confidence I can tell you I have found one I can truly trust. Thank you Noe and team for fixing my car, at a reasonable price and making me feel comfortable. Will definitely go back when needed.”
“I didn't ask his name but the Jat that helped me was cool as hellwent in came out and got what I needed quick great service and kind and helpful workers. Made my day that much better.”
“I haven't been there yet but I've spoken with a guy who sounded busy, knowledgeable, like he was working real hard and was very positive about helping me find what I want. So I'm planning to show up there today. I'll update my review later.”
“I recently had a car accident I looked up the Bakersfield auto body shop they were highly recommended I took it in and they helped me out with all my questions they kept me updated with the whole process and inform me of any new information they called me and text me send me messages to get a hold of me I highly recommend them”

“Been working with the owners for over past 12 years. Only shop i trust to paint my truck and trailers. Had couple of trucks and trailers flipped over past couple of years and Prince and AJ fixed them and made them look brand new again.”
“I just got my vehicle back after a full paint job and I’m extremely happy with the results. The finish came out clean, smooth, and the color match looks great. My Traverse looks brand new again.
The team was professional, kept me updated during the process, and delivered exactly what they promised. Attention to detail was solid and the vehicle was returned clean and looking amazing.
If you’re looking for quality paint work, I definitely recommend them. Great job.”
“I got sent to Autozone today to buy oil for my car. I was helped by Raul and he was very helpful on showing me what kind of oil is good for my car. He was patient while helping me figure out the year and make of my car as well. I gotta say they really do have great workers!”
