Been a loyal customer for ~6 years. Best car shop in the area. Fair, honest, diligent. Never left wondering about my car. No appointments -- first come, first serve process. They treat every customer with respect, no matter what kind of car you got. This place is a gem.

This is a fantastic place. Miguel and his brother Luis offer excellent, dependable, fast services and charge fair prices. Our 2010 Honda Fit needed a lot—oil change, coolant flush, brake flush, new rear brakes, all filters, wipers, an inner tire rod, and alignment. They gave me a free alignment—a gift, Miguel said.…

It can be hard to find honest mechanics who won’t take advantage of you, so I’m glad I found this place. The only downside is that if you get there past 8am, you might not be able to get your car in because they are literally always full up.

First time here and I have to give them 5 stars for great service. Went in thinking I needed to replace all four brakes and they said I really only needed two done at that time. I got a quote from another mechanic for the same service and it was 50 percent higher than Auto tech. I also had other general maintenance…

I had Auto Tech Services repair my brakes for my 2008 Ford! They were honest with me, and did only what they needed to do with the car, no more! Given it’s such an old car, I really appreciate them taking the time to utilize their expertise and provide the repairs needed without running my cost up on unnecessary…

What a breath of fresh air this mechanic shop is! I came in to have my little Miata serviced for brakes after I stored her for a year during the pandemic. I made no appointment but was immediately tended to by the owner, Luis. No wait despite them clearly being busy. Luis immediately checked all four of my brakes…
