Customers frequently cite quick turnaround times, friendly staff, and efficient smog check services as primary benefits of the shop. However, a subset of reviewers reports dissatisfaction with high repair costs, perceived price gouging, and instances where initial diagnostics failed to resolve mechanical issues. Some also note difficulties in securing appointments or concerns regarding communication clarity during complex repairs.

I went to TP Auto Repair for the first time for a smog check. I was able to get an appointment for the following day, the smog check was done very quickly, and I received excellent customer service! I will definitely come back.
Phong was so kind and professional :) my cars already ready started leaking oil so I took it in to TP they took care of it in record time I’m very happy with the service they provided!
