“Family ran shop that treats everyone like family. they took care of my wife's vehicle very efficiently. I would definitely be back for future repairs. Victor was extremely professional. thank you again.”
“These are the kind of people who deserve the utmost praise. It's been 7 years now they rebuilt my transmission on my Dodge van with the A-727 tranny and it still is like brand new. Mind you my van is a 1986. Ed the owner was there and at the time the head technician was Rick I don't know if he's still there I hope so but the honesty the professionalism the quality of work I haven't had people like that in so many years it's refreshing and restores my hope in humanity. Not only mine but my daughter's life depends on my work vehicle and that is pretty dang important to me. Thank you guys because every time I drive my van I say to myself wow, these guys are the best of the best in their field,
Dave R.”
“By far, one of the highest quality and honest mechanics around!
I was in a bit of a pickle since my car needed to be serviced on the Friday of 4th of July, and most shops were closed up until the weekend -- I urgently needed my car up-and-running by Monday for a road trip. Naturally, after several phone calls, BC Advance Auto Repair was the only one that picked up.
First and foremost, the service experience is awesome. There's a break room with water, AC, restroom, and Wi-Fi to wait while your car is being serviced. My technician was the owner, Anthony (or Huy), was very detailed-oriented, intelligent, and reassuring with my issue. His Vietnamese and English is also perfect, if that is a concern.
I received an oil change with a highly rounded/stripped oil pan bolt and tire rotation. The pricing was very reasonable, and I was pleased to see that the work was done right. Anthony also explained in detail the work performed, and gave a receipt. Moreover, they also provided me the original bolt and the remaining new oil.
Definitely one of the best auto repair shops in Orange County. Will definitely come again. Come here for honest, reasonable, quality auto repair services!”
“Alex and his team are super …technical services are up to the best standard…he is always going out of his way to help … including free services for the little jobs… no one can or will do that …
I really appreciate your continued services and support Alex …

“Excellent place to bring your car for anything you need done. I had the pleasure of meeting Joe & his team over the last couple years and every single interaction has been above & beyond. They are very knowledgeable, well priced, and treat you as if you are family. I had a variety of services done so far (both major and minor) and the car is still driving smooth as ever!”
“Great place to go. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Any problem my car had was fixed by Pedro. Go and check it out. He's straight forward with you. Honest person.”
“I contacted Santa Fe Auto Repair earlier today for an AC recharge quote. Hands down the best experience I've had visiting a mechanic shop. I arrived there 5 mins after calling the shop and was warmly invited by staff by my name to fill out paper work before the service. I was introduced to Jose who was welcoming and professional. He was able to service my car quickly and efficiently. It is difficult to find a local honest mechanic that cares for its customers. I witnessed the business acumen and overall culture of the company and its staff. Being in corporate customer service for over 10 years it is great to witness a business doing right by their customers and winning their business. If you are looking for a mechanic that cares about its customer come to Santa Fe Auto!!”
“Proper diagnostics led to a repairing a smog problem other shops couldn't figure out and fix. Ace has a service pit, so they were able to work on my RV without having to lift it.”
“When I had a transmission-related problem, these guys managed to squeeze me in around their much bigger jobs and projects. Were EXTREMELY knowledgeable and helpful. They were HONEST and very fair in their pricing as well. Flexible, helpful and also VERY friendly.
I HIGHLY RECOMMMEND these guys for ANY transmission-related work, from minor things to full tear-downs.
It's hard to find good, honest, helpful and fair repair shops. These guys were a gem find.”
“Ramiro and his team are great! They are experienced and overall are honest about their work. I have been coming for 3 years now and it is my go-to shop! The service is also excellent, if you’re looking for good work and honest mechanics this is your spot !”
“My car started acting up and I needed to get my transmission checked. Andre took my car out, explained all that was wrong in the most detail so I could understand and gave me helpful information. Was very patient, helpful and understanding. Thank you Andre”
“This is a good man working here. I was totally stuck across the road, locked outside my car by accident, with the keys inside. I was in a desperate situation.
I saw his garage across the road, was embarrassed, but walked inside asking the gentleman for help.
He kindly stopped what he was doing, came out across the road, and managed to open the car for me! A HUGE relief, and saving me a fortune and inconvenience.
I offered payment, but he said there was no need, and he did it out of his good grace. I was so grateful for that. I am not from LA, but if I were, I would take my car to this man, he is a good person.
Thank you for helping me last week. I really appreciated that.
All the best to you sir. I implore others to take your car here to support this business. I repeat...he is a really good person!”
“If you're looking for a transmission repair or work, this is your place to go. Everyone is knowledgeable, curteous and very friendly. I went in to get my transmission work done on my F150 and Rigo personally gave me an inspection and a striaght and honest estimate. The job was done very quick and with a master tech quality. My truck runs as good as new and even gave me tips on how to maintain it for years to come. The price set was honest and competitive and without and hidden or extra fees. The job was well done, great communication was established and warranty came with it. Look no further, this is your place. They have gained a customer for life!”
“I have been going to this shop for 15 years. These guys are honest and get the job done right and on time. They have rebuilt 3 transmissions and replaced 2 engines for me plus handle maintenance on all of my cars. Pricing is extremely fair. Highly recommended.”
“I needed to get my first oil change on my new Versa. I came to Ray for his professionalism and his customer service. I also got a needed oil change for my girlfriend's Corolla. We're both very happy.”
“I’ve been coming to Tashmo for years, he rebuilt two of my vehicles 92 Land Cruiser and 94 4Runner I could not ask for a better mechanic then Daniel! I live in Redlands and I still come to him! You won’t find a more honest mechanic anywhere! I reffer all of my clients to his shop’ no hesitation!”
“Found this shop to have the best price in town for labor to install a remanufactured transmission. This place is an honest family business and everything went well for my Hyundai, however there were hard down shiifts in 4th and 3rd gears, so I went down the street to an auto electrician to reset the TCM for relearn and adapt values and shifting was smooth again!! Would recommend.”
“Went into the shop today and had a great experience. The guys were friendly, efficient, and fairly priced! Will be going to them for all my mercedes needs in the future!”
“Tire had a nail on a Friday night, and all tire shops had closed early.
Moreno tires was my 4th tire shop attempt, and luckily he answered and said he would wait for my arrival.”
“I brought my 2014 Camry in with some issues, and Luis was a huge help. He quickly diagnosed the problem and got it resolved. I’m very happy with the service and would highly recommend stopping by if you need any repairs.”
“These guys are extremely helpful . Very knowledgeable and exceptional at what they do. Eric always has helped me out and gave the best options and guidance to keep my vehicle running smoothly. Please go here if you want your vehicle in top condition”
“I came to *Auto Best Smog Check* to get a smog test done, and unfortunately, my car didn’t pass. But Sayed was incredibly helpful — he didn’t just send me on my way. He took the time to explain the *BAR (Bureau of Automotive Repair) vehicle retirement program*, something I wasn’t even fully aware of. He walked me through the whole process and guided me step-by-step on how to apply and get compensated. Super knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely wants to help people. Highly recommend this shop and especially Sayed if you want honest service and expert guidance!”
