Love this place. Very efficient and nice.
I had a great experience at TP Auto Repair. Car repairs are never cheap, but they were upfront about everything and explained what my Honda needed without making me feel pressured. The staff was professional, honest, and really friendly throughout the entire process. They completed the work quickly, answered all my…
Extremely friendly, helpful, and quick turn around. Would recommend
Very friendly and quick service! Fairly priced
Very affordable oil change and pretty nice people, but totally did not address the issue of my windshield wiper fluid tank leaking. Sure, they filled it, but now all that beautiful blue liquid sits on the concrete of my apartment complex garage. Guess I have to suck it up and find another shop. Oh well. -- UPDATE:…
Couldn’t recommend this shop enough! This was my first time visiting and their service is top notch. As a young women, it can feel nerve wracking going to an auto repair shop but Phong calmed any nerves I felt with his honesty and transparency. This will definitely be my new shop for any car needs!
I absolutely recommend this shop , their customer service is in incredible they had originally told me it would be a four hour job. It was done within two hours of me dropping off my car. They were very communicative from the beginning entering the time that the car was at their shop. They kept me informed they…
Great experience, went in for a service and smog. They were very quick, friendly and thorough and caught a few things I needed to fix. Would recommend :)
Very good
Pham has Excellent customer service, is very knowledgeable, friendly, fast and very fair pricing.
I can’t stop talking about TP Auto—and for good reason. I tell everyone I know to go there, and I genuinely won’t take my car anywhere else. I don’t know much about cars, but they always pinpoint exactly what’s wrong and explain everything clearly. TP Auto is reliable, honest, affordable, and always has a quick…
I honestly love this place, I have taken my car here several times and always been thrilled with the repairs and service. They are thorough, thoughtful, and knowledgeable, but still willing and able to explain car stuff to a layperson. They are also competitively priced for the location and nice to chat to when…
Absolutely professional work of mechanics! I am very pleased that they fixed the problem in my car, which even the Lexus dealership could not detect. Now my car is in reliable hands of professionals! Thank you very much!
Perfection!
Very quick service, dropped off car at 8 am and it was ready by noon
T P Auto Repair was economical, professional, knowledgeable and customer-friendly.
The best and most trustworthy auto repair shop I’ve ever come across. Took my 98 Tacoma in for overheating issues and a check engine light that other shops couldn’t figure out how to fix. It was finished the same day and at a great price. I’m blown away by this shop and will be taking all of my vehicles to it in the future.
Faster service than anticipated and reasonably priced! Great customer service
Phong was extremely helpful and efficient with confirming and repairing the issue with my car. He kept me updated throughout the process which i appreciated greatly!
Really great experience! Very fast and communicative. I would for sure suggest T P auto repair to anyone who needs their car looked at. Will be returning
Phong knows what he’s doing and does it well. Quality service, great turnaround from drop off to pick up.
I came in for my first time for a smog check. I drove right up, was assisted immediately, and was even educated about the oil life in my car. The service was amazing and I felt so comfortable despite being completely out of my element. I’ll 100% be back and I have only great things to say.
Really quick turn around for what I needed. Loved that they called me to give me updates on my car throughout the day! I wouldn't go anywhere else.
Excellent service, didn't try to sell me but pointed out what needed attention. More work than I expected but they completed it in a timely manner and stayed in touch with me all along the way. I felt it was a reasonable price for the work they did. I am very happy with the results and I will highly recommend them to my friends.
Phang did my spark plug replacement and gave me a great deal by not doing a bunch of unnecessary work the dealership recommended
Excellent service Phong only did what was necessary and serviced my car very efficiently.
Super great service and honest! Owner is very attentive to detail with great customer service. Went in to fix thermostat and oil change and very happy with the work!
