Wonderful service and great people!! My car quit on the highway while passing through town and Emilio fit it in right away, actually driving over to get it, quickly diagnosing the issue (belt and pulley in need of replacement), and repairing it so I could get on the road again as quickly as possible.He was extremely kind and helpful throughout (as was the office lady, though I didn't catch her name) and made a stressful situation so much better! Plus his prices were more than fair.I highly recommend E & J Auto Repair for trustworthy service at an honest price. (And don't forget to say hi to his beautiful dog, Nelly, while you're there:)

I have went here for years and I never leave disappointed. Emilio always tries his best to help me and get me the best deal in town. He s reasonable and trustworthy I recommend him to anyone looking for a mechanic or looking to switch mechanics. If you are looking for someone who you can trust, take care of your vehicle, and get you the best deal trust me try E&J you won t regret it!

E&J Auto Repair is great. We've taken all of our vehicles there many times and always get reasonably priced fast turnaround and honest service.

Went in for an oil change and the service was very quick. The owner was very accommodating and helpful. The business dog, Nelly was also the cutest and loved belly rubs.

After going to SIX (6) different places to try to figure out why one (1) kept saying not ready for smog so technically not failing. In contacting the smog referee and them saying there was nothing they could do that I should try taking it to a dealer and the dealer saying they don't work on cars for smog check.I took the car to E&J and he was able to figure out the problem and pass smog within a few hours.Highly recommend excellent customer service!!! I will definitely be returning for any future mechanical needs.Services: Transmission, Auto body & trim repair, Electrical repair, Air & cabin filter replacement, Auto battery replacement, Auto power window repair, Steering & suspension repair, Auto water leak repair, Auto side window replacement, General repairs & maintenance, Steering & suspension replacement, Auto A/C recharge, Auto engine diagnostic, Auto engine tuning, Body & Trim, Auto brake repair, Tire rotations, Engine repair, Vehicle Inspection, Side view mirror repair, Auto A/C replacement, Wheel alignment, Transmission repair, Brakes, Auto battery maintenance, Auto tire replacement, A/C installation & repair, Auto emissions testing, Auto windshield replacement, Air conditioning, Wiper blade installation, Auto maintenance, Auto brake replacement, Battery, Oil change

I don t recommend this place at all. Because the reviews I saw made me think it was a good place, than I decided to take my truck there to do a tune up. And also I told owner to do a rotation as well and to check my trucks condition to make sure I could drive it on a long trip safely. After they told me it was ready, I went to the office to pay with my credit card and I asked for a receipt; they said the receipt was the paper that I signed with the total I paid. And that was not the receipt and I told them again that was not the receipt. I needed the receipt that they charged my credit card. The worst was after I started driving my truck, I started hearing a loud noise and it started shaking and my engine light turned on, so I decided to go back to tell them what happened, they were supposed to fix it but now I don t feel safe in my truck or driving it, now I have to take it to another place to check it to see if they messed it more then before instead of fixing it. They didn t even do the rotation on my tires because they forgot after they almost charged me $500, now I don t know how much they will charge in another place to check to see if my truck is fine. It s not fair to charge a lot of money for terrible service

First time there was good. Was quick and easy. They took care of my car that just broke down so I could drive it again. They just didn't give me any paper at the end of the day where I saw what was made. So I had no idea what exactly I paid for. Emilio was friendly.Then the second time was kinda annoying. I left my car there for a whole day. When I got there at 7pm they couldn't really tell me what they did all day and what needs to be replaced. They weren't even bothering to explain it to me because I'm a young foreigner woman who "doesn't understand it anyway". I felt disrespected by them. At least they didn't charge me anything that day. If you need a quick fix or something on your car they're okay.

Honest people who were willing to help us out despite their busy schedule. Ultimately we decided to drive home to our mechanic since the issue was under warranty, E&J didn't charge us for the diagnostic and recommended a good place for lunch. If we ever get stuck in Merced again, we will give them a call!Service: Auto engine diagnosticService: Auto engine diagnostic

Highly recommend going here for your repairs. Our car s alternator pulley was broken (unbeknownst to us) and the car s electricity starting failing. We had the car towed immediately to the shop and they worked hard to get us back on the road, knowing we were in a rush. They ordered the car parts we needed and got them in the day of. Emilio (the owner) was nice and walked us through the issues with the car. Darla at the front desk was very kind, helpful, and efficient.Services: Electrical repair, General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic, Auto maintenance

Went in to get a broken and stuck dip stick after Walmart broke it. They were able to get me in and get it fixed in a couple of hours. Very reasonable rates.

I've been coming here since probably about 2015, I think. I keep coming back because they are very good at what they do. And Emilio is awesome. Every time I come here I'm always satisfied with my service. I know that they do a good job because I came back to take a family member's car to get worked on and they have been getting a lot busier over the years. When you bring your car in, you might have to wait, but it's totally worth it.

I called yesterday to ensure they would be open today and was told to bring my car in the morning. When arrived this morning I seen so many cars that I was afraid they wouldn t have time for me. The men working were very polite, listened to what I had to say about my car and sent me to Emilio. Emilio said it would be a few hours. I waited outside with nowhere to go and he told me to come in where it s warm. Their teamwork, friendliness, professionalism and kindness should be noted. I was offered water and grapes, so I bought them pizza. Thank you for all your help today, definitely recommend this company.Services: Steering & suspension repair, Wheel alignment

We were in town for an event and I needed a smog but hadn't had the time to get one close to home. I called a few places and thet quoted me about the same price. When we showed up to 2 other locations they were all busy and it would be a long wait. My hubby called this place we were quoted $35 dollars and they said bring your car over and no wait at all. So we did, we were in and out in no time and the staff was so friendly. Highly recommended. Oh and I forgot to add that they were much cheaper than the other 2 places I was gonna go first. Great price and great service.

I can t say enough about how awesome my experience was with E & J Automotive. Not only are they fair, honest, and affordable, but the owner Emilio has integrity, a rare quality to find these days. I have already referred two of my very good friends here for their car repairs and I will continue to do so!!!! Next time I need my vehicle repaired, it will be at E & J for sure!!!

Great Service and the prices were also affordable. I know that when I go there to fix my car its going to be fixed for good and they even told me about other things that needed to be fixed that was making it dangerous to drive my car that I did not know about and they didn't charge extra for letting me know. I appreciate honest mechanics that make it worth going to. Thanks so much my family is safer being in our car because of you guys I definitely will be going back there it's worth my time!

Took mom's car in for a smog inspection. It passed with flying colors. Yahoo! Super fast and friendly service. Plus if you like them on Facebook you'll save $1.00. Great service. Never a long wait. Definitely recommend them to everyone I know.

They were nice enough, but they put the wrong and cheap part on our car. We had to stop on an emergency car repair on our way to OR. Unfortunately we weren't able to make our trip because the car continued to have problems until we were able to bring it home and have our mechanic look at it.

This place has the best prices in Merced and they have a great service! I ve been here for smog checks, flat tire, battery change and just general motor checks and they always do a great job, really fast. Their work ethics is wonderful. My favorite auto repair by far.
