Transmasters Auto Care

After getting a $10k quote from the dealer in Carlsbad for my transmission repair and a host of other repairs that were unnecessary, I took my 4Runner to Sam who diagnosed the issue promptly and gave me more than one option to repair or replace my aging transmission. He was honest, upfront, and on time with his quote and services, actually ahead of schedule on the repair. Sam charged me exactly what we agreed upon and was a pleasure to deal with. I would recommend anyone to him for any service he offers. Thanks again Sam for the amazing experience I had working with you and your team getting my 4Runner back into good working order. Service: Transmission ~Daniel

Select German Car Service

Great experience, I had them perform a pre-sale inspection on a used Porsche and they squeezed me into their schedule right away. They did a great inspection that helped for negotiating the price of the car. After I purchased the Porsche, they took care of some maintenance services and a leak repair for reasonable prices. The car is running great and I would definitely use them again. Service: General repairs & maintenance ~Daniel

Mercedes-Benz of San Diego

I recently took my car to their service department as there was noise coming from my car’s front axle. I dropped my car off on Monday, I was told it won’t be looked at till late Wednesday which was fine. I then called on Friday to check, the advisor mentioned the car hasn’t entered their shop yet, i then told him that’s fine I’ll just stop by tomorrow to pick it up. I arrived and had to wait for over 20 minutes to pull my car, then I saw how dirty and dusty it is. I have NEVER seen a dealership gives back a car in that condition, it looked like it was abandoned for years. My car was clean as I always have it in a garage. I called their service department and left a message for the service manager and he didn’t call me back. Very disappointed with their level of service especially coming from such a reputable brand such as Mercedes Benz. ~Karim

Kearny Mesa Toyota

Saying that I’m extremely satisfied with the process of purchasing my vehicle at Kearny Mesa Toyota is an understatement. The process was easy and straightforward. Their customer service and phone calls I received throughout this process were adequate and friendly, not rushed or time consuming. In addition to their outstanding service, their trade-in process was the most accurate and fair process I had ever experienced. They provided a good and fair price for my trade-in (better than most other dealerships I previously visited). I probably wouldn’t return to any other dealership to buy a car based on my great experience with them. ~Jose

TLC Auto Repair Inc.

I’ve been meaning to leave this place a review for a year now. I took my Prius here for 100k service + to fix my front window sprayers, which had stopped spraying for over a year. I’d tried my best to unclog them myself to no avail. So imagine my surprise when instead of just replacing both and moving on, they managed to unclog one without the need to replace it. I was so stoked — obviously it saved me money but also better for the environment not to replace something if it can be repaired. It was such a no nonsense and hassle free experience, honestly my first as a young female going for car service (example - the dealer has, twice now, suggest I replace my “dirty” cabin/engine air filter literally days after I replaced them myself). I just really trust the TLC team and look forward to bringing my Prius here for the rest of its life. Thank you so much! ~Brittany

Prestige Autowash & Automotive

I did 89.99 hand wax detailing. But my car wasn't clean. Because look at the picture. Why are the dirty stains still there? Have you ever not seen it while using wax? Or is it because it's annoying to clean again? The staff negotiated a $10 discount like something special. So I had a hand wax. and Wipe Dash & Console are also included, but not clean at all. How much do I have to pay to get a clean car? 80 dollars not enough?I'm also doubtful that the hand wax was actually done. ~m

University City Service Center

I was hesitant at first, I thought it might be too pricey, but this station would be most convenient for me to get the work done at. I talked with Scott and he quoted me a price on a new starter motor. I called around to four other shops. All gave roughly the same price. Had my car towed in here late on Thursday afternoon. The tow driver said he has towed to this shop before and that they do good work. I was a bit worried it wouldn't even get seen before late Friday as I saw they were very busy, but they also had a lot of techs working. I dropped off the keys and went home. They called me before 10 am the next morning to inform me my car was finished and ready. It blew my mind with how fast the turn around was. Car is running great and I haven't had an issue with it since. I am very happy with my experience and I will be going back for any future needs. I recommend this shop. ~Coyote858
