A joke . Sells vehicles no license to sell. Junkyard part no estimates or receipts of work allegedly done .Reported to BAR , Martin claims that I never took my vehicle in to be serviced . Wheel fell off of my car , actually broke off. Martin on Nov 26 2023, reacted to this by purchasing the items that messed up my vehicle . Proof enough that they did something but denied it to the bar.woukdnt refund my money on lemon BMW that a prior buyer took back to owner Tony and now the BMW sits in my parking spot . I do not allow people to get over on me so now it's a report to DM,V and then small claims if this is not settled with Mauricio and now Martin.

Don t get an alignment here. I got ripped off because the guy supposedly did the work but I know he didn t because my car was the same. Didn t even give me a print out of the alignment because he knows he didn t do it. He lied and said the computer was down. I lost 40.00 but they lost a customer!!!

Horrible service take forever to fix the car and don't leave the right. Motor collapse on the car when it was supposed to be transmission work. Damaged more parts and refused.

Took my car in to get an alignment. The guy who charged me didn't wash his hands or use gloves and left dirty finger prints on my credit card and receipt. When I left I immediately noticed dirty handprints on my door, steering wheel, and shifter.On top of that my alignment was off. When I went back the same guy took my car for a test drive (still having extremely dirty hands) he insisted everything was straight. He started jacking up my car and didn't say what he was going to do to fix it. A problem he didn't even think was there. I'm currently waiting to find out if everything will be fixed but I won't be coming back here.

Had an alignment done and on the way home was hearing some clanking noises from front end. When I got home there was loose nuts on the tie rod end adjuster. Very unprofessional people and will not being going back. Nor will I recommend any other people. Had it fixed at another shop.Service: Smog certificationService: Smog certification

They have an old mechanic Humberto nicknamed "El Muerto" ... that does not touch your car! It is very bad and reckless

Poor communication with customer's...... customer service doesn't really exist at this shop..... I had to find my own parts... literally hunt them down after being left and the dark with almost no information about what was going on with my vehicle..... fortunately I stopped by frequently enough to finally catch the mechanic when he happened to be in the shop.....Poor Communication, Questionable Work, Questionable Parts Used.......

Had my truck smogged 2 days ago. Tony, the owner, spent time to work with me to help me correct some emissions component replacements. Test went fine. I would recommend them.

This review is based in shop honestyCalled and asked cost to smog my carAnd they asked what year and model,I stated 2005 Jetta and they said It s $90 dls I asked why so expensiveTheir reply was It takes a special machine to do the smog and there s not many machines out there...Doesn t this smog tech know all OBDll Vehicles used the same equipment To perform a smog, this is unless your car is 2000 and older.Based on his answer I decided to not do business with this shop.

This place is the worst place to take your car to get fixedThey use used parts use ( junkyard parts) They hire Undocumented Personnel to pay them under the table a fraction of what they should be getting paid. They give you a much worst diagnostic to make you pay more for your car repairs. By far the worst place to take your car in for repairs.Service: General repairs & maintenance

I've been here 3 times before and every time I have had no problem. My car has been the same since 2007 and now in 2018 he takes my money and says that he cannot test it because of an aftermarket intake. The intake had been there the last 3 times yet today its not ok. Ps the intake is carb compliant. I've filed a bar complaint and I have the last receipts of the smog test all passing. This place is full of ignorant people.

The technicians were very professional and helpful, it's the third time I've been smogged there and I only failed once so I'm doing good with these guys

No star. Went there for a $80 smog estimate and anthony not only gave me the run around, he created more computer faults all the while preaching about GOD. 110. He said bad for me good for him...no lie.

Great place for alignment and brakes, but not engine problems, took a week to get my car for a simple fix and they use junk yard parts and charged them as new, also make sure you get everything in writing or you ll be overcharged.Service: General repairs & maintenanceService: General repairs & maintenance

Took my truck in for a smog and the guy ran the test and charged men$51.75 before he told me he couldn't finish the test due to an after market catalytic converter that he could not read the numbers due to too much rust and I would need a new one! Took my truck home and hit the rust with a wire wheel, so you could see the numbers and he finally puts it on a lift and reads them then tells me far as he can tell me it's not ObD II compliant!! I won't be going back again there! Needles to say I repaired my vehicle some where else!

Dont go to this place , mi car passed emissions test and just because the owners son assumed my catalytic converter wasn't the original one he failed my smog and didn't even check to see if it was the original one , he said i needed to get a new catalytic converter so i could pass smog , obviously he charged me and said i could come back for a re-test if i fixed my catalytic converter when it has always passed smog with the same one , i went to another smog shop and passed immediately,
