Been going to Ray Frey Auto Center for years. Highly recommend there business.
Had an engine oil change and transmission oil drain/fill. Even though it took almost all of a business day, I understand things happen.. a first for me to experience this but they’ve always been prompt with their service.
Always efficient service they keep you up to date and the price is right
Ray came highly recommended by a lomgtime local who also had his Subaru Outback worked on here. My 2011 3.6R Suby tranny has been clunkin & slipping for a long while (195k), I took it to Ray, 1st thing he did was personally road test it...wouldn't you know it, it didnt act up at all for him. He came back and said he…
Ray was my go to mechanic when I lived in San Diego. He was so good that I am writing this review 2 years later because I randomly remembered just how solid of a mechanic he was. He’s honest, and will tell you how it is. He replaces fake customer service with true and honest work. That was exactly the type of…
I am always very happy with the service at Ray Frey’s auto service. My car is an older car and it always feels like it’s brand new when I leave there. I’m very happy. I would recommend his shop to everyone.
This shop is one of the best!

One reason I waited so long is because it’s hard to find a mechanic that…
I’ve had 2 services done this year at Ray Frey Auto Center - a transmission fluid service in August and an oil change this October. I chose their shop out of all shops in San Diego based on their great reviews and because I got the best quote from them when I was first calling around for my transmission service. My…
A trustworthy repair shop.
Always does a great job, friendly people at the desk. Highly reccomend
What can I say, why would you go anywhere but to Ray Frey. Ray and Bob are the consummate leaders in auto mechanics knowledge, repairs and customer service. My kudos! That's the reason I've been taking my autos to Ray and Bob for almost 30 years.
I am a long time customer of Ray. He gives me great service at fair prices. I no longer get over charged by a dealership. Thanks Ray! Ina Cantor
Great work as usual! These guys are the best!
As always they provide quality work. They are reliable and trustworthy. Will continue to work with Ray Frey for all of my familys vehicles.
Taken my cars there for over 15 years.
