    It all started when I needed a smog, a friend referred me to this place so I went and I needed a new catalytic converter my transmission flushed and a transmission speed sensor. I bought the transmission fluid separately had him do all that for $500. I have to wait for 6 hours to have them finish this. Then I go to get the car smogged and the people at the smog place told me that my catalytic converter was not a California approved because it did not have California registration number stamped on it. So I drive back over to 209 Motorsports I have to wait for an hour before someone talks to me. Finally I walk up to the counter and two of them are sitting there chit-chatting and I ask what's taking so long they said. O, let's go check your car out now. They looked at it and could not find the registration number so they told me they'd have to take the cat back off turn it around and then I'll be good to go. But I had to leave and come back the next day because they're exhaust guy was not there at 3:40 in the afternoon . So I had to drive back again from Manteca to Stockton hand them the car at 11 o'clock and took a uber back home. Waited till about 4:20 and I had to call them back to tell me my car was going to be ready at 5 I picked it up and it looks like a different catalytic converter. They broke my bolts on my exhaust manifold, but they put new ones on and they welded the cat directly onto the exhaust manifold flange definitely not the cleanest welds I've seen. Of course I did not get charged more for them to do the job right the second time! Which they should have done in the first place. Also I had a PCV hose that needed to be replaced which is only about 4 inches long I asked him to do that and they said they did not know where the hose Ran So they didn't want to do it. I took off my air intake and there was easy as pie plain as day. Total Car Care my butt! I told the owner Chris that I needed my money back for what it cost me to use uber round trip which was $44 he gave me fifty but was reluctant to do so. He was also Unapologetic and did not seem to care about his customers. I would not recommend the shop to anyone. My car does work but only after a lot of headaches and wasted time and money.

    These guys literally saved my life…read more I took my car in for a 2nd opinion yesterday and THANK GOD I did. They did a complete inspection of my suspension system. Then took me in to see my car and walked me through every part that needed to be replaced/repaired and explained the issue and severity. That has NEVER happened at any other shop. They gave me several estimates to help break down the repairs for me. I knew how serious it was when they had me sign a disclaimer stating basically that they informed me of the severe issues with my car and I was knowingly driving an unsafe car. That freaked me out a bit. Took my car back today first thing in the morning to fix the things they considered priority (brakes, driver side axle, and wheel bearings). They did the work. When it was done, they took me in again to show me something completely frightening. They explained that the second they took the tire off, the axle completely broke APART and the pieces were lying on the floor in front of me. The only the thing that kept the pieces together was the tire holding it in place. Once the tire came off, the axle fell into pieces. I wish I took a picture. It was terrifying. Had they not pressed into me how serious the issues with my car was, the axle and brakes could've come apart on my way to work. Could've been in an accident. Could've been in an accident with my family in the car. Caused an accident. They literally saved my life. I can't even imagine what could've happened to me had I kept driving my car in the state it was in. I am beyond grateful.

    A while back, I visited this shop for a quote on a valve body repair because my car was revving…read morepast 5,000 RPMs at low speeds and etc. I explained the situation to the front desk team, but in hindsight, I probably gave too much detail prior to giving the reason why I was actually here. They understandably assumed I wanted a full diagnosis because of the different issues described rather than just a quote for the valve body repair. And to be honest, that's what the process should be like. Because what if I am wrong about the prognosis, ya know? After dropping off my car, I later received a call letting me know they don't work on transmission-valve body replacements and was charged for the diagnostic, along with a recommendation to another shop. At the time, it felt like I paid for a referral, which didn't sit right with me. Recently, I came back to discuss this with the owner, Richard. We had a great conversation and agreed it was simply a misunderstanding during a very busy day. Keep in mind that Richard is also not the person who took my car in. I am sure if he was there when I first walked in, he would have recommended me elsewhere. But what stood out to me was Richard's professionalism and integrity. You have no idea how easily he could have said "no" to my visit today because at the end of the day I signed off on the paperwork prior to handing off the keys. But instead, he took the time to hear me out and make things right--not because of the money, but because he truly cares about the customer. That kind of passion and commitment is rare in the industry, and it's clear he's one of the only ones to have maintained it for however long he's been in the business, respectfully. That said, the shop itself is spacious and welcoming, not cramped like some places that make you feel rushed. Plus, the location is great--lots of nearby stores and even a gym if you want to kill time while waiting. If you're looking for a place that values honesty and customer care, this is it. Five stars to Richard, his establishment, and the team. And if you made it this far, it's only fair that you pay them a visit :)

That's fine, whatever mistakes happen. I take it back for them to fix their mistake and they call me the next day at 1:30pm to tell me it's ready. I was at work, but I left an hour early to be there before they close at 5pm. I pulled up at 4:40pm, gates are closed and there's a security. I ask him if they're closed and he opens the door to check with the workers (I can literally see them just sitting inside talking) -- they say they're closed. I ask "I can't just pick up my truck?" He asks me which truck and opens the door to the workers again and then back to me and says "nah, come back tomorrow". I wasn't mad about the wrong size fuel tank, but I didn't realize I had to call beforehand to ASK the employees to do their job until they actually close at 5pm. Look I get it. I work for a small business in town and we also close at 5, but we wouldn't turn away a customer that comes close to closing out of sheer laziness. They were there, I was there, it shouldn't have been an issue. Reply to owner: I appreciate the response but I answered and told the guy I'd be there before closing, which I was. I had also been at work and had to leave early to make it before 5pm. It was definitely not after 5pm when I arrived.

There's a reason why I've never stopped going here for all of my cars & the same goes for my parents. This place has become my family's go-to mechanic as my grandma also goes here now after we recommended she take the over 30-year old car with over 200,000 miles on it here as she refused to give up on getting it fixed. My grandma's previous mechanic failed/refused to repair it but United Auto took on the beast of a job & got it done. The owner Teddy even towed her car from her house to their shop & back for free whenever a new issue occurred while she's at home or work rather than her taking it over herself & getting a ride as she's the only driver in her household; also giving her discounts throughout the process. They also replaced an entire engine in my Mom's car. The team at United Auto Repair do a wonderful job on all of my family's different types & ages of cars. They are genuinely good people that make me feel like I'm not being ripped off as their prices seem reasonable to me; a person who is sort of a car-fanatic. I feel like my cars are in good hands in their care & my family & I will continue to recommend them to our family & friends the same way I'm recommending them to the reader of this lengthy feedback.

This was one of the few times that I had used Yelp's project feature to find a mechanic. Robles's auto repair was the quickest to reply and also ended up having one of the most competitive prices. Using the project feature of Yelp allowed me to stay in constant communication with Gabriel. I was kept abreast of the repairs on my vehicle and they even stuck around a little after hours to make sure I could get my car after the repairs were done. That Stockton traffic can be a doozy. The issue with my vehicle was a leak in the radiator that Mercedes said would cost $2400 to repair at the dealership, but with Robles's auto repair, I was able to do it for under $800. The parts in general are not what's expensive just my model and Mercedes has a lot of pieces that have to be removed to get access to the radiator. Now my car is running great and I should be good for a long time.

    Robles Auto Repair delivers exactly what most shops promise and few actually provide: reliability,…read moreprofessionalism, and fair pricing. From the very first message, their responsiveness stood out. Communication was prompt, clear, and respectful, which immediately set the tone for the experience. That professionalism carried through every step, from the initial contact to dropping off our Escalade for new brakes and rotors. The shop itself isn't flashy, and that turns out to be part of its charm. What it lacks in frills, it more than makes up for in competence and integrity. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and straightforward, with no upselling or pressure. Most importantly, the work was completed exactly when they said it would be, something that feels increasingly rare in auto repair. The quality of service paired with the best price we found made this an easy win. Robles Auto Repair proves that excellent service doesn't need a fancy showroom, just honesty, skill, and respect for the customer's time. Highly recommended.

    This review is long overdue…read more So my long-time trustworthy mechanic in the Bay Area informed me of his plan to retire in the immediate future. I trust him so much when it comes to my car that I travel all the way there even for my smog check. Anyway, he suggested I start looking for someone I'll feel comfortable with, preferably someone local, so I don't have to drive far. After going through Yelp's reviews (on local mechanics), I decided to visit Rick's Auto Repair. By the way, one other reason I chose the latter is because, even with his shop's already excellent reviews, the "unposted" ones are also as good... check them out. So I decided to visit his shop and kinda interviewed the owner. His name is Tony (he bought his shop from Rick, the original owner, and decided to leave the name of the business as is). Since then "uncle" Tony ;-() lol has done a number of work on my baby (a 2001 Camaro Z28), which we've owned for twenty-one (21) years now. I had a new radiator, water pump, hoses installed, fuel filter/oil change, greased my anti-sway bars, transmission service etc. I will be upgrading my brakes soon with the EBC brake system and you guessed it, uncle Tony is going to do it. Tony and his staff are truly easy-going people, easy to talk with, a good attitude is imperative. Another indicator of a good mechanic is when you ask them to check or replace something and they check it and inform you that you don't need it or you still have a lot of miles left for whatever it is. I told him I was planning on upgrading my suspension system to lower my car. His response, "Why? Your car has a nice stance and rides nicely, why waste your money?"... honesty is the best policy. Anyway, the aforementioned is just my opinion, you form your own. But if you're having something done on your vehicle, whether major or minor work, but unsure of what to do and need a second opinion, you might want to try and consult with Tony at Rick's Auto Repair. Finding a good and trusted mechanic is like trying to find a good doctor you'll entrust your health with... long term.

    Honest, Professional, Trustworthy. I highly recommend Rick's!…read more Not so great was that I had to call 3 times because their voicemail box was full. I finally got through on the third try.
