Five star! United has the best services and they are very professional. Jay is a friendly person with great manners and this guy knows what he s doing! I have been to too many shops since I had a contract with one of the rental services and I didn t have any great experiences that I can leave a review. Thank you Jay.

Drove down to United Auto Repair to see if they can fix my small side view mirror problem after days of looking for repair places. The guy was working late was very welcoming, came out to see the problem and without thinking he told me he can help it s only a small fix. Didn t charge me but the fact that he was willing to hear out a new customer and was so welcoming. I didn t get his name as it was closing time and he maybe was in a hurry but I salute this guy. Good customer service may God Bless him for helping. I recommend this place customer friendly.

Such great service! I needed to get my headlight replaced and it required that the whole part be taken out. They did an excellent job and saved me so much time!

Not recommended! The most expensive place, I will never be there again. I had a very bad experience two times when I cam for Uber inspection first time the tall guy works there his name is Fawad asked me $30 cash I paid usually $20 for inspection it s the price but I paid $30 because it s close by. One day I referred my friend he is living there too but they asked $40 cash that s unbelievable. So therefore I wanted to share my experience with everyone in order to help others understand if you want to fix something there it will cost you twofold.The main purpose of my post is to highlight your highest prices. Fortunately, you acknowledged in your response that you don't price match. Uber is one of the examples I mentioned. Another issue is with the brick pad change; you quoted me $350, but it cost me $180 for the same brand of brick pad. The price difference was shocking. I don't understand how you can claim honesty and prioritize customer satisfaction. It doesn't make sense at all."

United Auto Repair saved me! I was passing through town on my way from San Diego to Berkeley and got a low tire pressure signal on my dashboard. I pulled in just as they were closing, but Jay, who was working at the time, was willing to help me. He found a nail in the tire and fixed it on the spot. So grateful! This place is the best!Service: Tires

The best car service place to go in Livermore! They are very fast. I was in and out for my battery replacement in 25 minutes. Every car service place I ve been to in Livermore always tries to sell you something you don t need but I didn t have that problem here. My car was up and running smoothly again.Services: Auto battery maintenance, BatteryServices: Auto battery maintenance, Battery

My boyfriend and I were on our way back to Oregon after visiting family in Monterey Bay. My check engine light came on after only two hours into our 10 hour drive back home. The Subaru service in the area quoted us an outrageous amount to have my spark plugs replaced. We called at least 10 different auto repair places in Livermore but no one was able to help or ignored our calls. Jay was the first one to answer the phone, listened to us explain the issue, and told us no problem: bring your car in and we will take care of it. Jay was able to replace all my spark plugs for a very reasonable price and was super nice. He truly saved the day and our trip back home. Highly recommend. Thank you Jay!Service: Auto maintenance

Charged me $1250 for a radiator repair, stated the part couldn't be bought in California was the reason for the high cost. I felt this was untrue and have done my research, I have been to multiple places in town to get quotes from them on the service we had done. Part is available at multiple places locally, average quote from other places here in town is $785 (for part and labor) Unfortunately I did not get to choose the shop that did this repair or I would have done my research sooner (it was a unique situation). I just went back to United and tried to talk reasonably to him, asked him to give me the specs on the part he placed in my car, he won't, says he doesn't have to, though he did tell me where he ordered the part from (its listed for $503.55 his charge for the part alone was $825), when i showed him that on my phone he said he has the right to mark up any parts he wants to just like burger joints all have different prices on their burgers, he is not willing to give any money back even when I showed him my quote from another place in town. I told him I would be placing a review on yelp and social media to save others from being robbed like this, he tried to scare me by telling me he had cameras in his shop recording what I was saying. Do your research before you pay, Unfortunately I didn't. He also has a 20% coupon available on his website which I asked him to honor when I was paying and he said he could not because the paperwork had already been printed up for the vehicle.

I drove from Sac and was out in livermore visiting a friend. I got a flat tire and walked to this shop that was near by. The guy walked with me to my car, took out the tire, and fixed it in his shop, and then walked back, putting it in for me since I didnt have spare :( he only charged fixing my tire. I am very thankful for their service and very friendly people.
