I called in on a Sunday morning and he was able to take me in the same day. The front right part of my bumper had detached, and he was able to put together a speedy fix. He is very nice, honest, and upfront. If you re looking for a reliable person to take a look at your car and fix it, Niko is your man!

My experience at Nico Auto Repair shop has been the best experience that I have ever had with a mechanic. Nico is very honest and the prices are fair. I wholeheartedly recommend him . In the event my car ever needs help, I will be going back to him. Thank you Nico!

I got my first scratch on my first car. It's just a minor scratch under the front bumper from the gutter of a carwash but it's bugging me. I just have to get it fixed!!! I called around everyone was quoting $800 - $1200. I found Nikko's Car Repair and called him right away. He said if I can drop by his place, that would be great so he can look at the damage. I went there after work. He looked at it and said leave it alone. The scratches are not visible anyway and most cars will have scratches in the underside of the bumpers especially for a new driver like me. He is an honest businessman and he has earned a customer for life. I will still bug him to repair that scratch on my car! :)

I came to an event from out of town. My Car was making a whistling sound everytime I accelerated. Took it to Autozone they did the free diagnostic check. It turned out I needed a new turbo charger. So I thought. They weren t really much of a help. All they wanted was me to pay for the part $900 I thought I needed. And that s not including labor part to fix it. My friend were calling around for mechanic shops and they were telling me it would be a 2 day process to fix it. And the labor part was going to be pricey. luckily Niko s car repair popped up and we called them. Thank goodness they were available to look at it and fix the problem. were able to fix the issues with my car in two hours. While other places were going to charge me a down payment on a car, it was nothing big. One of the pipes was loose and he was able to tighten them up. He was reasonable and honest. Now I know my go to place is going to be if I m stranded again in San Jose.

Took my car to Niko s on a Sunday after my check engine light came on. He took a look at my car and got me a diagnosis same day. He tried to find the part same day but couldn t so he picked it up the next day and got me back my car in about 24 hours. Great service, was up front about pricing and got me my car quick.Service: General repairs & maintenanceService: General repairs & maintenance

He deserves 0 rating.Please save your CAR and MONEY.He pretends to be a nice guy, but trust me, he's not. You will realize it after paying him. He won't pick up your call or reply to your message. He charged me $900 for a simple fix that other places were asking for just $600. Even after that, he's not been able to fix my car. I had lost MONEY, CAR, and TIME.Avoid this guy at all costs. The quoted cost may seem very low, but trust me, you will have to pay a lot more because he will not be able to fix your car, and you will end up going to other places.This is unprofessional. He has no place to sit; he even doesn't have a proper place, which can be called a shop.

Nico was open just before Christmas when my check engine light came on, he was able to see me quickly and explain the problem plus fix.

This was my first time coming into Nicos shop I got to say that I was highly satisfied with his work. He was fast and knew what he was doing. The pricing is very efficient and he doesn t take much of your time. He was very polite and it looks like he loves his job because he didn t hesitate to help me. I recommend this shop to anyone who needs something done with their car because Nico can do it all. Will come back again Service: Electrical

Needed my alternator replaced and didn t have nearly enough to cover the cost. Nico spoke with me, told me to bring it on in, diagnosed the problem to confirm the root cause, and fixed it the same day. I was able to get back in my car the same day that I dropped it off, which is driving better than before, and he worked with me on not having the full amount to cover the cost once he added it all up. Nico is fast, efficient, reasonable with pricing, and simply just a good human for trusting me when he had never met me in his life to work out a payment plan. Being new to California, I have now found my new mechanic.

Thank you Niko! I came in for a passenger window replacement. My car was broken into and unfortunately the window was taken out. I called Niko last minute and he was able to get me in the next day. My car was ready to pick up the same day too! He is fast and very efficient. He makes leaving your car with him feel very safe. Thank you niko! You're the best!!Service: Auto glass replacement

I had gotten into a minor fender bender and was driving home when a noticed a loud noise coming from the bottom of my car. I pulled into here at closing time and asked for help because I did not feel safe to drive home. It turned out the bottom engine cover was dragging on the ground. Niko helped me (even though he was helping someone else), and without asking closed the cover with a large screw / drill and sent me on my way . I am so grateful for Niko s kindness and expertise thank you so much

The best mechanic I ve ever met. Brought in a used car to be checked out before I bought it, and Niko and his son performed a thorough inspection, gave me detailed information about different parts of the car, and told me exactly what needed to be replaced and how much it would cost. He even took it for a ride to check out the transmission, the suspension, and the sound of the engine. His advice was really helpful in making the decision- and I ll come back again.Service: Vehicle Inspection

Their service is amazing! I needed to get my car window fixed urgently as it was not rolling up or down and this place was open after 7 pm. They took me in without an appointment and fixed the window in 15 mins without charge. I recommend this place if you re looking for a good solution for you car problem.

Even though it was his day off, he came down to the shop and replaced my alternator. Even though I was having trouble getting my car there, he was patient, kept in touch, and fixed my car in less than 90 minutes. If I can t do the work myself, he has earned a customer.Service: Auto battery maintenanceService: Auto battery maintenance

mr STEVE MANGANO brought us his 2013 honda accord with torttle body issues. He uses his car to work at Uber and Lyft. We repair the car for a very cheap price since he always comes and asks us to please charge him cheaply because he never has money. We repair the car, we deliver the car with a test drive and 0 check engine code, the next day he returns with the car in a tow truck, with new computer codes, we check his car with the owner present and we discover that the transmission is damaged. We want to clarify that since STEVE took his car to us, it has never arrived for maintenance or any repair related to the transmission. We do not know the reason why he is accusing us for damaging his transmission.

I have to say he takes your money and fakes the repair like he did actually fixed the issues. And yes he under charges but this is how he takes the profit $ because niko could not address the actual problem with your car. Yet my car was a victim of his business (blown transmission)because he was maintaining it and now I HAD TO VOLUNTARILY REPO MY CAR BECAUSE HE COULDNT FIX THESE minor issues earlier. Now I have alot of money to pay back to a financial bank just because niko could not maintain my vehicle as a "professional mecanic" . My car is to be auctioned with a broken transmission. Look for Other REPAIR SHOPS AND A BETTER MECANIC OR MECANICS.

Amazing experience! My check engine light turned on the morning of Memorial Day before a road trip I had planned. All other repair shops were closed, but Nico was willing to meet me that day and quickly diagnosed & fixed the problem with my car. Highly recommend!

I took my car to Nico because my door lock wasn't working and he pulled off the door panel without disconnecting everything first and broke my light and window switch. He also didn't take off his gloves before going into my car so the interior has black hand prints all over it.Service: General repairs & maintenanceService: General repairs & maintenance

Thank god for niko. After another auto shop said my Ford Fusion was in need of major work done with the control arms/tires, I got the car double checked by niko- who thoroughly checked it immediately upon bringing it in. He found there was nothing wrong with it/the other mechanic was wrong, and saved us hundreds from getting unnecessary work done. Will be returning to this honest mechanic for any car work in the futureService: Vehicle Inspection

We had to fix our SIENNA after the tragic accident and other places told us the price will be twice as much as Nico s.He is a very sincere person and a great mechanic as well.We are happy for finding him.
