Jose was very patient, understanding and empathetic to me, and didn't treat me as a nuisance when I asked a lot of questions. I appreciate how he took his time to explain to me, and how he provided such efficient, and quality customer care and car repair care. The repairs didn't take too long considering the extensive repairs needed. I definitely plan on returning for the rest of the repairs, when I can afford them, and I also already recommend this location to my friends. Thank you so much. 😁

This is my 3rd time returning to this location. The owner respected my lack of knowledge and communicated with both my dad and I, separately calling the both of us. I got several update calls during my visit and was given detailed quotes and information throughout the process! The owner and staff have always made me feel comfortable and at ease even when there are unexpected finds. I recommend this location to anyone I know who needs car work done. Great location, great services and a great owner/ staff!

I believe the prices now days are over price, especially to the people that are struggling with life and here in California. Especially for just an oil change. I get, that everyone needs to be paid but come on. An oil change. There’s other places that people referred me to after I went and told them how much it was to change my oil. I even went to valaline and those prices are expensive. That’s one reason I said heck no, and I went to Midas.
