“Outstanding service and work! Some debris on the freeway put a hole in the bumper and broke a headlight. I had not needed a body shop before and these guys ensured I felt comfortable. They communicated often and clearly, answered questions patiently, provided a clean environment, and made my car look like new! Even detailed the car (so of course it rained the next day). I can see why they're recommended by the dealer.
I also want to mention I had an estimate from another shop that said an additional part would have to be replaced. I was skeptical, and sure enough the part was fine. So add "trustworthy" to the accolades for Advance Auto Body!”
“Hagin’s is fantastic- I would never bring my car anywhere else! The people who service my car are knowledgeable, kind, patient, fast, honest, and trustworthy.”
“They squeezed me in on a tight schedule between jobs. Mechanic noticed I forgot my chipotle on the car seat and put it in the fridge for me. Still had it when I picked the car up a few days later! What a great dude! Exhaust issue was found and fixed, no fuss, reasonable/cheap price for what a pain in the ass engine bay of my car. Thanks!!!”
“These guys are legit. Family owned business, honest, affordable, and pretty quick.
I handed them a bunch of money on a silver platter, I said this other company quoted me $875 to replace the engine mounts to fix this rumble I get at certain speeds.
They took a look and charged a very reasonable diagnosis fee. They told me the engine mounts are fine, it’s a bad u-joint and they could fix it for a little over $200.
I was skeptical but said go for it. Sure enough, that WAS the issue. Not only did they NOT take advantage of me, the correctly diagnosed an issue another larger company missed. They saved me from getting scammed.
Found my new local shop.”
“We originally took our Subaru in for work that we were told would cost thousands of dollars by a different repair shop in 2021. Teri was able to figure out that the problem was misdiagnosed and the repairs unnecessary. We've been taking our cars to DeCarlo's ever since for repair and general upkeep. We always get prompt, quality service at a reasonable price. Highly recommend Teri and his crew.”
“Really good experience here. Alex charged over $1000 less than Berkeley garages for a Honda CRV A/C compressor replacement (which comes with a 2 yr warranty) + new brake pads. He also got us in the day after we called and finished within a few hours. I'll definitely be returning.”
“I had my car get fixed it was my younger brothers car and it was in bad shape but at ck his name is Jesse he made my car feel brand new I totally recommend this place ?”
“They saved me thousands of dollars. An honest mechanics are worth their weight in gold. Les Shwab had recommended 3 repairs for about $4000. My car is only worth that so I started car shopping, then I decided to take it here for a second option. They told that I didn't need the CV axel or control arms which Les Shwab said I should prioritize doing 1st, and that the struts could use replacing but I could wait if I didn't want to put the money in now. Performance auto works literally saved my car. My wife and I will be going to them for all our auto repairs going forward!”
“I've been to martinez auto tech several times in the past few years and I can't say enough how much I appreciate their honesty and hard work. They are always reasonable and trustworthy. I'd give them more than five stars if I could!”
“These guys are the best the owner is super informative and very trustworthy, they got my entire rear end rebuilt + added a new differential in a couple days I’m beyond impressed. Will be coming back for any work needed for the future andi highly recommend these guys, thanks outlander motorsports!”
“I've been here at least 3 times, different cars, only once with an appointment. The fee is less than other places I went to years ago and no coupon needed. Fast, friendly service. I highly recommend.”
“The service and knowledge they provide is excellent. They assisted me with finding some Wiper Blades for a 1988 Boat. The Marine stores had told me good luck and were no help at all.”

“I found Marc and Kevin online and I’m glad that I did. They’ve worked on my 2015 Range Rover Sport - oil change, installing control arms and most recently, replacing my start button. It’s been a pleasure getting to know them. Honest, professional, hardworking, and reliable. Good people! If your Range Rover needs servicing, I highly recommend Rover Doc, LLC. You won’t be disappointed!”
“This place is great! They were all very informative, professional as well as personable and easy to talk to. They were on time and reasonably priced. Thank you for coming out to test our truck last week for the clean truck program requirements.”

“We were from Washington State on a long road trip and our transmission started not shifting past 2nd gear and we took it in and they figured out the source of the problem which was the computer and thankfully not the transmission. They got us fixed up and repaired in a timely manner and got us on our way. Chris was super knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole process. We highly recommend BT Auto!”
“I had a great experience getting the tires rotated on my car. I was in a bit of a rush before making a ~500mi trip. Guillermo got it done within less than half an hour. I felt at $35, it was a steal since I had no appointment and didn’t have to wait. The interaction was courteous and friendly. I will definitely use their services in the future and feel confident recommending them.Service: Tire rotations”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re reading this, stop scrolling — you’ve found your shop.
I know how stressful it is when your car suddenly acts up. I’ve been there. My 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee had never given me any trouble until recently, when my coolant temp started randomly spiking. I know next to nothing about cars — no leaks under the vehicle, no visible drips on the skid plate (a term I only just learned). But when I opened the hood, my coolant was basically gone.
Not wanting to be that person stranded on the freeway with steam pouring out during rush hour, I stopped by a nearby mechanic for a quick top-off. His logic? “It’s probably the weather.” He even checked the radiator, but something still felt off. The next day, my oil temp still wasn’t regulating, so I made it home and called Wyatt.
From the very first call, I could tell this shop was different. Wyatt actually listened — patient, kind, and clearly knew his stuff. He understood I couldn’t miss much work, told me to bring the car in, and didn’t make me jump through hoops for an appointment.
I showed up before they even opened, and they took me right in. By the time my ride arrived, they had already diagnosed the problem — with photos, videos, and a clear explanation of what was going on under the hood. I was impressed.
They walked me through my options, gave me a transparent quote, and there was zero pressure or gimmicks — just honest people doing honest work. And they had the job done by the end of the day. They kept me updated the whole time, which made planning rides and work easy.
These guys are top-shelf, the kind of mechanics you want in your corner. I’ve already told at least seven people about them and will keep spreading the word — because shops like this deserve it.
My only (selfish) request? Maybe open one day on the weekend so I can have all my services done with you guys. But honestly, they’ve earned their time off — and thanks to them, I’m not car shopping this weekend.”

“Not only was he the most affordable shop I called, he was quick and efficient. Took my truck in for exhaust work. Great quality as well. Highly recommend for any exhaust work. Won’t go anywhere else. Thanks Nick.”
“Great team providing excellent service and work. The waiting area is very large and feels like a coffee shop. I wouldn't take my car anywhere else for tires and other maintenance.”
“This review is for the Auto Repair portion of the business. My starter went bad on Christmas Eve. It was difficult to find a place with the holiday season. I picked up a starter at a parts shop with the intention to tackle the install myself. But decided to check in here and see if they would do the install. Jamie(Mechanic) took me on the spot and did a good job and at reasonable price.”
“Jason was so helpful & fixed my car better than any other place could & for an affordable price and quick repair time. Excellent service, will be going back again in future!”
“Don't normally (or ever) leave reviews, but there's a first time for everything. I have a 2010 VW EOS which started experiencing a few problems. After consulting two other shops for some major repairs, car still wasn't running correctly. Sputtering and random stalling persisted, which was scary for me as a 70 y.o. woman who only knows how to fill up the gas tank. Having lost confidence in the first shop and their excuses, I tried a second opinion with another shop where I've taken my car before who specialize in German cars. His estimate came to $8000!! Thought that was ridiculous but what do I know. Out of desperation, looked through an old school Yellow Pages phone book and found Collaco Auto Repair. Short story -- they literally saved me thousands, recommended only what was needed, not the fairy tale wish list of $8000 and gave my car a very thorough diagnosis so I felt reassured there were no hidden problems lurking in the car or have unexpected surprises. The $8000 work wasn't even necessary! It's only been a week, but what a difference! Car has power again and no sputtering. Everything is running normally in tip top shape. I feel confident driving again. I'm so grateful to the entire team there -- not only for their professionalism, and obvious expertise in car repair by being able to diagnose the problem so quickly, but also for their honesty, kindness and empathy. Took the time to explain what is causing the problem and listened to my concerns. As busy as they were, they still took the time to treat me as if I were the only customer and cared about me. Angelo even told me I could return my failed part to the first mechanic for a refund. Didn't know I could do that! I did and got my $$ back. I'm so grateful to them and only wish I had found them years ago. They are just genuinely good people. Thank you so much to Brandie, Angelo, and Manny. And to Marcos (the patriarch) who raised such good son and grandson.”
