I have been through too many mechanics in my 40 years of vehicle ownership and I can say with absolute confidence that Mendo is the best. Earnest is always transparent and fair and I trust what he says needs to be done to get my vehicles back to safe and reliable service!

I am very, very happy with the services provided by Mendo Motorz to fix my vehicle. They were very accommodating and stored my vehicle for over 3 weeks until I recovered due to illness. Work done was very affordable and I am grateful - it was a great experience without any stress. Thank you Mendo Motorz!!!! Highly recommend!
