“The Team at SGCS worked on schedule to rectify a PADM fault on my Porsche Boxster. Inspection of the brakes suggested that it was nearly time for a repair and they found a minor oil leak from an improperly install oil filter. All repairs and interactions were handled professionally. SGCS are excellent communicators and that is so important. The car was inadvertently left in the torrential rains overnight, but David saw to it that the car was not only clean upon return but he brought the car to the detailing shop next door to make sure it was spotless. A good experience overall.”
“Called ahead about one of my headlights not working. Was able to take in my car that morning but opted to take in the following day. Minh was able to fix my headlight immediately. He is very experienced and easy to work with. I highly recommend going to him, he is a great and very reasonably priced mechanic. Will continue your support his business—”
“I have brought my pickup truck and my Mustang here and have always had excellent, honest, and timely service. This is the ONLY repair shop I would recommend. Quality parts and warranty is a huge plus! 10/10”
“DC mobile is truly amazing they fixed my coils my radiator among many other issues I was having it's truly amazing to see this because before my vehicle felt like garbage lots of shaking noises felt like I wasn't even driving a car anymore but a piece of junk but then Daniel was able to fix all of my issues”
“Five stars all around. Great customer service, honest, reliable, and try their best to get the job done in a timely manner. I Highly recommend this shop to anyone needing a reliable mechanic.”
“I recently went to Miramar Automotive and Transmission to have my transmission replaced, and couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. The team was professional, helpful, and honest from start to finish. They took the time to listen to my concerns, carefully diagnosed the issue, and explained everything clearly before beginning any work. Every question I had was answered thoroughly, and I felt confident throughout the entire process.
They did an excellent job on my transmission, and my car now runs perfectly. I highly recommend Miramar Automotive and Transmission for any of you auto repair needs. Their quality of work and integrity truly stands out.”
“I took my car here thinking I had a transmission issue but unfortunately, for insurance purposes, ended up being the catalytic converter. They were able to figure out this issue the same day and show us the actual test to prove it. Sam and his team are knowledgeable and honest, highly recommend.”

“Edwin is the best mechanic I have ever had x10. I recommend that all my friends go to Bowman’s. He goes above and beyond to take care of what I need. So grateful for him - he just makes life easier!”
“Andrew is wonderful. He not only fixed my cars problem that I went in for but fixed another area of concern as well and all for a very small fee. I have recommended Petteys for all my friends. Thank you Andrew.”
“My son is new to SDSU and needed electrical work and brake lights fixed ASAP. As his father and 500 miles away, I found Morena Automotive on Yelp. Matt took great care of my son's car and was very reasonable and professional. Its a great feeling to have a mechanic to trust and know my son will be in good hands while living in San Diego. Thanks again guys.”

“This automotive mechanic never ever ceases to outperform. They are an incredible group of people to deal with efficient effective and very value oriented. Also the level of their communication while going through the service or the repair is unusually good in today's world.
I highly recommend Mike and his team”
“First time taking my 1999 Honda Civic into this shop, April was very helpful on the phone when making the appointment with me and got me in right away! April as well as the Mechanic went out of their way to make sure the noise I complained about was the correct thing that I was referring to. The service was quick, and efficient, will be my go to shop from now on, thank you.”
“Incredibly nice mechanic, they worked for 90 minutes to troubleshoot why my car’s left headlight was broken and finally found out it was a lose connector. Fixed it for completely free and denied payment. Will go back in the future.”
“I first visited Dragonfly Automotive about three years ago for a simple oil change, and what immediately stood out was the thorough inspection they performed—something I had never experienced at any other mechanic. During that visit, they even discovered a nail in my tire. Since then, I’ve continued coming back because their service has always been exceptional.
Most recently, my car needed a new engine along with a few other repairs. Alejandro and Luis were incredible throughout the entire process. They explained everything clearly, were genuinely kind and patient, and even spoke with my dad multiple times to make sure we fully understood the situation since I’m not the most car-savvy. They truly went above and beyond to make me feel supported and informed.
After years of being a customer, I can confidently say I trust Dragonfly Automotive completely. They’re honest, transparent, and fair with their pricing. My car is now running smoothly again, and I’ll continue bringing it here. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy mechanic.”
“I have been taking my cars to John's since 2017. Every time I've been there, I felt confident that my vehicle was in good hands.
Recently I took my 05 CR-V in for an inspection and I was extremely impressed by the customer service provided by Dave and Rick and also the quality of the work performed by Ulisess.
If you want to take your car to a place where you will be treated like family, then don't bother looking any further.
These guys are constantly busy and they have absolutely no motivation to rip you off when they already have so much business as it is. And for that reason, sometimes it might take a bit longer than you prefer to get your vehicle back... but I promise you it's worth it, because they're making sure to do a great job with every car that enters their shop.
These guys will NEVER try to upsale you on anything. They will ONLY tell you something needs to get done if it truly needs to get done. And if it doesn't need to get done any time soon, they'll tell you that it's safe to wait. Their inspection reports are thorough and honest.
I know I will continue to come to this shop for as long as I live in southern California.”
“These are genuinely the best people around. If you are looking to service your Toyota or Lexus look no further.
Years ago, my car wouldn’t start, so I stopped by on a whim. They took a quick look, spent about ten minutes diagnosing and fixing the problem and charged me $0.
Most recently, we brought our car in for regular service. We forgot to mention that we planned to get the tires charged right afterward, yet they still knew—just by looking at the wear—that rotating the tires wouldn’t be the right call.
I trust them completely. I won’t take my car anywhere else. (My husband tried a different shop once and quickly regretted it, because that shop charged more and didn't fix our car's issues at all!)
They are truly a breath of fresh air in San Diego, where so many businesses seem more interested in taking your money than providing real service. This shop is the rare exception in town: honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring.
Highly recommend!”
“Luis and Pro-Align were recommended by two separate long-time friends. Had my rear brakes done, quick and efficient, and figured out that I needed new motor mount rather than expensive engine repair, car runs like new. Not only that the motor mount repair ended up being less than the original estimate. Highly recommended!”
“So glad I found this place for my daughter’s car. I’ve tried other places and this is my favorite. Great communication with JJ answering phone and Ron answering email. They explain everything and only do what’s needed.”
“The BEST Auto repair shop. Randy, the owner, is remarkable, honest & caring. This maintenance visit Evan was so helpful, professional, efficient and reliable. I have introduced 2 new clients recently as I am so happy with their service.”
“These guys do a great work at fair prices.I highly recommend them. They are not limited to Japaneses cars either. I have a Land Rover and they do an excellent job with the repairs and maintenance. They also warranty their work and honor the warranty. I trust them and that is important these days .”
“Brought my 2021 Ridgeline in for control arms and an alignment and they took care of me. Straight up, no BS, and didn’t try to upsell me on a bunch of extra stuff like the dealership was doing.
They explained everything clearly, gave me a fair price, and got the work done quick. Truck drives way better now, steering feels tight and it’s way smoother over bumps.
You can tell they actually know what they’re doing, especially with suspension. Definitely coming back here for anything else I need.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Motec Autocare. The team here is friendly, professional, and truly knows their stuff. It’s rare to find an auto shop that’s both honest and reasonably priced, but Motec delivers on both. I always feel confident bringing my car here knowing they’ll take great care of it without upselling or taking advantage.
A special shoutout to Adolpho—he’s the best! He consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything is done quickly and efficiently. He takes the time to explain what needs to be done and why, which I really appreciate. It’s clear he cares about his customers and takes pride in his work.
If you’re looking for a shop you can trust, Motec Autocare is the place to go.”
“Got an oil change and alignment for my old Volvo wagon. Went on a beautiful run through the local area while I waited. Great service and everyone here seemed very friendly. I'll be back! I love Auto Tech El Cajon but when they are busy, I'm glad to have found a backup! Thank you!”
“I have been going to Trinidad Motors for 3-4 years now and have always been satisfied with the work, customer service and overall experience. I am always given a break down of the car issues, future concerns and pricing. I will forever take my car/ future cars here as I trust and value the company!”
“I recently took my car to Steven and Rod, and I was very impressed with the service I received. Steven and Rod were very knowledgeable about cars and took the time to explain the issue I was having in a way that I could understand. They were also very proud of their work and committed to providing high-quality repairs. I was very happy with the price of the repairs, and I would definitely recommend Steven and Rod to anyone looking for a good car repair shop.”
“I'll give six stars if I can.
Great service and reasonable price. Also, they helped me to clear some of my scratches on the car without letting me know.”
“This place was very accomodating. I left my car over the weekend to be serviced, and they gave me a loaner car to drive at no extra cost. The owner is a good dude. I even got some parking tickets while the loaner was in my possession and again, there was no extra hidden fees or funny business upon picking up my car. They only asked for the cost of the tickets and were always super professional and courteous.”
“I brought my vehicle into Sotos Transmissions after dealing with serious transmission issues that other shops couldn’t figure out. From the moment I arrived, Omar and Martin went above and beyond. They were incredibly flexible with my schedule and kept me updated every step of the way.
What really stood out was their clear and honest communication. They took the time to explain everything in a way that made sense, gave me a straightforward breakdown of the costs, and made sure I felt confident in every decision. No surprises, no pressure—just solid, trustworthy service.
They got the job done quicker than expected, and my car has been running like new ever since. It’s rare to find a shop that combines skill, honesty, and genuine customer care, but Omar and Martin at Sotos nailed it. Highly recommend!”
“I purchased a 2010 Toyota 4 Runner 4 years ago and brought to SD Trux to do an inspection to make sure I didn’t buy a lemon. They provided a detailed inspection sheet with pictures and status of particular portions of the vehicle that were either in good condition, needed repair, or would need service within a specified amount of time/miles. I was beyond impressed with their professionalism and mechanical and technical proficiency. I’ve now been bringing my 4Runner here for every service and wouldn’t go anywhere else. I drive to LA a lot for work and I’m almost at 200,000 miles and my vehicle still runs fantastic thanks to the service provided by everyone at San Diego Trux. Thank you.”
“Fantastic customer service and quick turnaround! I called ahead for a smog check and they got me in the same morning. Done in under 15 minutes, and even topped off my low oil when my gauge didn't catch it. I'll be back for service soon. Thank you so much!”
