Came here when I could not find anyone to help me with my Mercedes. I have an older model that I love but being 22 years old now things need to be changed. I do most of all the work myself, but I ran into two problems, getting my Harmonic Balancer off, and my valve covers kept leaking even after I changed them not once but twice. Finally I found Wood and Son. They may not be your conventional shop, but they know their stuff. They took my baby on a Friday and I picked it up on Tuesday. It was a day late, but not because of them, but a bad part. I waited two weeks to write and post this to give my car a good time to ensure things were good, and thus far no issues. No leaks from the Valve covers and it even seems to be running better. very happy with the service. Again this is not your conventional shop, so don't be turned off, they are the real deal and can help you in a pinch. There prices are reasonable, and they will keep you updated as things progress. If I need help again, or just don't feel like working on my car I will be using them again....thank you...

On 3/9/24, my boyfriend and I broke down in Tehachapi on the way to my cousins wedding. Although we didn't make the wedding, we did meet these incredible people. We had our Kia towed to their business and were greeted with optimism and kindness. They had our Kia done in a little over 24 hours, whereas other garages couldn't see us for over 72+ hours. These guys are fast, honest and amazing. I'm so happy we found them! Angels do exist!

I was refereed to this business, I was told they could take me now unlike other garages had a two week waiting list.The Pros: They were able to take me the next day, problem engine light was on. Diagnostics I needed a new oil pump cost with the diagnostic $2,100 and change. Said it would take them 5 days. It was my work van so I was out of work for 5 days. The people who work there are really cool, Nathanial explained exactly what he will be doing.The Cons: And why it is a 3 star review. After I picked it up and drove it home, under the hood was leaking like Niagara Falls. I called Nathaniel back and he said it could be a million things and bring it back in the morning. Which was inconvenience for me. I had to arrange my schedule for this. When I took it back the next day they looked at it and it was overflowing. They put to much oil in it. I was inconvenient because of their error. They should have a little more respect for peoples time. This is what they want a Honest review. Thank you.

Very friendly and knowledgeable mechanic. With a very honest and trustworthy business, and outstanding customer service. When other mechanic shops said it'll take 2 weeks to be in their shop it took him 1/3 of a day to diagnose and fix my problem. I will be bringing my RV if any other issues come to pass back to this mechanic "Nate and his team" are the best in all of Kern county. With his leadership and expertise he will have you on the road in no time!!!

I would definitely recommend Nate and crew for any job, big or small. I was able to get my car fixed FAST! I and on a very short notice. I had the brakes, rotors, front struts, rear shocks, oil changed and a power steering pump replacement in a few hours. Dropped it off at 8 and was ready by 3. I've also had some repairs including an electrical problem he was able to trace down, in one of my fleet vehicles. Again, very short notice and quickly fixed. The all around service and price can't be beat.Services: Steering & suspension repair, General repairs & maintenance, Steering & suspension replacement, Auto brake repair, Vehicle Inspection, Brakes, Auto maintenance, Auto brake replacement, Oil change

Don't break down in Bakersfield. Just don't. But if you insist on breaking down in Bakersfield, scroll past all the mobile mechanics and go straight to Wood & Son. Get a tow to his shop and he'll take care of your vehicle for a fair price.I couldn't stay in Bakersfield over the weekend, so I asked for a rush job to be finished that day and he came through, put me back on the road, and STILL at a price significantly better than any of the mobile mechanics quoted me. Dude's the real deal.I will avoid Bakersfield as best I can in the future, but if I were a local and I needed a regular mechanic, there's no question in my mind he'd be it.

Good people home grown here in the Dale. He is right in the middle price wise, but does outstanding work. They do work with oem and aftermarket parts to help you afford the repair. Guy is very down to earth and loves the town and community.

Replaced my alternator, timely, genuine and responds quickly and answers immediately. I'm glad I found this guy, I'm sure I would've been charged very hefty at a mechanic shop. Thank you !
