Love all the guys that work there. Thanx for being so helpful always.
great customer service in every aspect, trustworthy mechanics, fair pricing, i would send my elderly parents to them , i highly recommend them.
Meineke did a great job with servicing my vehicle. The oil and checkup was dandy. The cost was reasonable. And the staff was wonderful.
I called them after being told it was impossible to do everything I wanted in one place, but they diagnosed my car and gave me the results quickly. I'm planning to go back with another car. I totally recommend them.

Love the service here! Reasonable honest and reliable. Thanks everyone at team Meineke!
Went in for a routine service- staff was friendly and helpful! They did a thorough inspection & tire rotation with the oil change. They brought some concerns to my attention (even had pictures on the invoice!), but not in a pushy or salesy type way. Super reasonably priced too!

Great place i use them for all my vehicles.
Addendum 9/2/23: This was all corrected. Inexpensive, thorough. Would trust them for other significant repairs. Price is great. Offered full inspection along with oil change. Two problems 1) I had 1.5 qts of additives & told them to reduce the fill by that much. The receipt charged "5-qts oil." I don't care…
Went in with concern of sound coming from engine. One issue to the next but am glad that all issues were resolved before needing to replace entire engine. Chris & team were great at communicating issues as they arose, as well as wonderful at fixing issues at hand.
Great Honest Professional place to go for all vehicle repairs 🙂 I'm
We took advantage of the AAA free vehicle maintenance inspection. This was our first contact with Chuck Weber’s Meineke Car Center, Santa Maria. They were very pleasant and professional. There was no waiting time. Everything tested find and no repairs were needed.
Typically I have received excellent service. Recently, I had a vehicle inspection on a used auto completed however, when I returned home, the radiator had a leak and when replacing the radiator I noticed the belts were cracked and brittle, needing replacing. Both were not found by the mechanic.
This shop is the best. They do not force anything on you that is not needed. They worked me into their busy day and had me in and out in a couple of hours. I have used them twice so far and I have been happy both times. I will continue to use them.
Fast and efficient...I like the place and definitely would go back.
Friendly and professional staff, quick service, reasonable price.
Meineke was very professional. They gave me answers to my problem right away. I feel this company is honest and has integrity.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Fast service.

I'm super happy with their service. They fit me into their schedule so I could remain eligible for a free check up through AAA and the whole thing took less than an hour! I really appreciated that they explained the repairs my car needed and went over some prices wth me. I will definitely be back soon.
Efficient, friendly, hard-working and very helpful in diagnosing all auto items that need repair. They even replaced the battery on my key fob so now the remote works.
