Mo is Highly experienced master mechanic, very honest and trustworthy, friendly with excellent customer service, and amazing guy. I usually take all my Mercedes and BMW cars to the shop. He welcomed me warmly when I arrived to the shop. Mo inspected my car immediately and told me what is wrong with it. My car was repaired at the same day, and was running very well. He is intelligent and know very well about the German cars. More importantly, he educated you on how to keep your car running smoothly. It is rare to see an honest person like Mo nowadays. His prices are very reasonable comparing to other auto shops high costs. I will definitely recommend him to my relatives and colleagues. Great job Mo! keep up the good work. read more

While getting my annual service the dealership told me my brakes were shot. It seemed early to me, since my car only has 23,000 miles. I decided I needed ceramic pads to hopefully last longer than the OEM pads. I authorized Mo to do all four wheels with ceramic pads, but he called me after about an hour and told me I had plenty of pad thickness left on the front wheels. Very honest! His price was also reasonable. I will be bringing it back to him when I need the front pads done in the future. read more

Highly recommend A1 Precision Auto Repair for your car mechanical needs! We called and were able to get an appointment only a few days later. We stopped in for an estimate and the quote was very transparent and easy to understand. I received text message reminders about my appointment and received a notice when my car was ready. The estimate was fair and the work was well done! I appreciate the kind customer service, availability, and the honest work! It can be intimidating going to a car shop as a woman, but there was no need to be anxious here - A1 was wonderful! I will definitely bring my car back to A1 when I need additional work done. read more

My car check engine light came on while I was on freeway with kids. I looked for a mechanic on yelp and he answered on a Saturday, helped me get safely to his shop and fit me in. He was a complete life saver! read more

After repairing my wife's glovebox on her SLK Mercedes, the Air Bag light lit up on the dash. (Because I disconnected and reconnected passenger airbag) I called a Mercedes repair place asking if they would reset the ABS light. They said they could at a cost of $200. I went online and bought a On-board Diagnostic tool for $50. to try to reset myself. The tool came, I pugged it in, and it did not work. (Apparently the tool was not sophisticated enough to do the reset) A few days later, while driving by, I happened in to A1 Precision Auto. I met with Mo and explained the problem to him. While there I noticed his shop to be clean, well organized, and having all the latest auto repair equipment. To my surprise, with a big smile on his face, he told me he would reset the light for free, and sure enough he did. He now has a new customer. PS: While on line looking for a site to leave a review I noticed Mo has a Five Star rating on CarFax too. read more

After checking 4-5 other stores and getting some quotes for my brakes, I found this place very random! Mohammad was extremely helpful and gave me a reasonable and decent price for the front brakes (Mercedes). I totally recommend this place and would come back for oil change and rear brakes. Also gave me discount and fixed one of my lights for free! Made my day! Friendly, fast service, no drama! Thank you, wish you and your company all the best Moe read more

My car window wouldn't roll up because I needed a window regulator. And of course it was when it was freezing cold and raining. A friend recommended to go see Jiame, the owner at A1 Precision Auto Repair in Seaside. Walked in desperate, with no appointment and spoke to Jiame. He was so kind and polite!! I trusted him immediately. In 15 min he ordered the part & gave me a very decent quote!! He was a gentleman and he took the time to lift and temporarily secure & close the window for me so I wouldn't freeze. Dropping it off the next day and he had it done in just one hour!!! Very pleased with the service here. I will be bringing my auto needs here from now on!! Highly Recommend!! read more

This is the third time I've gone to Mo's -and each time he has taken care of my issues professionally, inexpensively, and successfully. My wife's car's brakes -I thought had a problem, but he pointed out a minor issue that was quickly set right. My car did have some brake issues and he fixed them quickly, inexpensively and they work great. Finally the other day, I took my car in because it was stalling at idle. He suggested it could be one issue, but upon checking it turned out to be (sadly) bigger issue. Oh, he also found a small leak that he fixed during that same job. Price was fair and I was happy that my car runs great again -perhaps quieter (& smoother) than before! Bottom line: Mo and A1 Precision are honest, do the job correctly the first time and are very reasonable in prices. I can't say that the auto dealership I used to take my car to, is that way! We strongly recommend him --and he has our business for as long as we have cars to service! read more

Needed brakes/rotors All around. Midas next door quoted over $1000 Checked with A1 and they installed everything for $285 total, with upgraded brakes I ordered online for $150, less than half of what Midas quoted Did such a good job at a fair price I also had them do my girlfriends car. You always need a mechanic you can trust to do work at a fair price. I highly recommend these guys for your hometown mechanic. read more

Had a great experience. Leaving Auburn to head to Monterey for a long weekend. Breaks sounded horrible so I took it to Les Schwab and had a horrible experience for the second time. You can read that review for more detail. Made it to Monterey and found A1 on yelp. They worked me in to their schedule, were very friendly and informative. I don't know much about auto stuff so I like it when they explain the problem and what they have to do. Price was fair according to my buddy who would know. They did do the typical up sale and tried to get me to change some belt, but that's just what mechanics do. I was actually going to take them up on it the next day but ran out of time. I may make it a tradition to take my car there when I'm in town from now on. read more

These guys are the best at what they do! Amazing service and get the job done, if you have a foreign car that is there specialty. As soon as he lifted my hood he seen what the problem was. Love love love! read more

i wanted to make an appointment for repair..asked to leave message..man answered phone, barely speaks English, kept saying, "Yousif not in"..and hung up on me.. Guess they don't need your business read more

Quick, honest service. I do my oil changes here and i find them convenient and fast. I would recommend this business!

Mo is an amazing person! Very positive and honest. I have a 2006 Mercedes Benz and I had took it next door to Midas for an oil change and they charged me well over 140 dollars and did an inspection wanted to charge me over 2.5k for brakes, wheel bearings and oil pressure hose. I took it next door to Mo's and inspected my car, got my brakes done for a way more affordable price. Man does he know Mercedes like no other, very intelligent guy. Not only will he fix your car he will educate you on the best way to keep your car running smoothly. I would Highly recommend him to any of my friends or family members. Take it To Mo to get your car running right without all the beating around the bush from the other shops. read more

Arrived at 8:30am when they opened. They helped me right away with my oil change. In total the time it took was about 30 minuets. The price was totally reasonable, couldn't be done for less even if you bought the oil and filter yourself. Will definitely be back for all oil changes. read more

A very nice honest place that doesn't rob you for your money! Honestly when I go to mechanic shops the last thing I want on my tab is a overcharged bill. However the front desk employee helped me out with my car and got it running within the next day. It was a big help knowing my car is a bmw and the price was just under $600! Please I recommend anyone to try this place out. Don't judge a book by its cover!!!!! read more

I just got back from mo's , he said he was surprised I was able to drive my vehicle the .75 miles I did as the rhs control arm bolt had dropped out. Quick diagnosis and repair and had my vehicle back in 2 hours... I definitely recommend Mohammed's shop to all my friends with out of warranty vehicles... the highest compliment I can pay to to say Mohammed is an honest mechanic and shop.. something pretty rare it seems nowadays read more

Wow! Clean, well organized, intelligent and BOTH reasonably priced and honest! I came expecting another owner entirely and I would have gone elsewhere except the place looked so good and so professional and I had an emergency. My 2000 Ford Windstar was leaking coolant and it was getting worse. Although it was near closing time, the owners quickly diagnosed the problem (it was a rare failure of an unusual part), and expedited the needed part for complete repair before noon the following day. Total satisfaction that has completely validated the risk I took and replaced it with absolute confidence and trust in A1 Precision's professionalism and workmanship. This shall be MY first stop for any auto work I need to have done. read more

Was driving through Monterey (seaside) to San Francisco when my serpentine belt came apart. Turns out I needed to replace the harmonic balancer. Not an easy fix. Called around on a Saturday. Found out shortly after that most auto shops weren't open all but A1 luckily. Called at 8:30 and Tofer said he could take it right in and immediately started working on it. Nawar helped as well by continuously updating throughout the process. Took longer than anticipated but every minute was worth it. Like I said it was not an easy fix. They are honest about prices and want to get the job done right. At no point did I feel I was being mislead or taken advantage of. I would highly recommend A1. They turned a big headache into a huge relief. read more

Mohammed was very informative and answered all of our questions. He did not try and up charge us on anything, he just fixed the problem at hand. Will definitely be bringing my car back! ***Update: It's only been 12 days since I took my car here. I distinctly remember asking if I needed a wheel alignment & Mohammed told me I didn't. Woke up this morning & took my little sister to school. I got stopped by a fireman on the way home who pulled up next to me and told me my right front tire was flat. Turns out the left front tire was getting really flat too. Took them out and showed a tire shop, asking them what could've happened and he said I needed an alignment. -_____- Really frustrated. Had to buy two new tires. All could've been avoided if they took the time to properly check. :( read more

Thank you, Mo and A1 Precision for excellent customer service! My daughter has brought her car in twice to A1 Precision. Mo remembered who she was just by her name when she scheduled her 2nd appointment on the phone. I just took my car in and received the same 5 Star service. I highly recommend Mo and his team! read more

Wow, honestly I'm so surprised. Being a girl that doesn't know anything about cars makes it hard to trust a mechanic. However, I came in at 8:30 for an oil change and to change my breaks. my car was ready by 8:50 Not only that but he checked my breaks too and told me I still had a few months to go before I needed to change them. Love that he was honest, efficient and thorough. Definitely coming back. read more

Update!! I almost broke down on hwy but managed to drive over to the shop and left my car for Mohammed to check out for me the following morning because my oil light Was on and car was shutting off. Mohammed found all the things that were wrong and even though it was more than I wanted to repair I know I needed to and being its my older work car I knew the car needed some love! So I agreed to have the parts replaced and now that we took it home it is running like a champ. I appreciate the work that was done and the oroblems that were solved. So far so good!! read more

Seriously amazing.....cant even explain. The leval of customer satisfaction for me is off the charts! Thank You Mo! Thank You Thank You!

Can't miss with these guys! Being new to the area, finding an honest and knowledgeable repair shop can be a challenge. I saw many good reviews for A1 and decided to give them a try. Great choice! The brake lights on my old Chevy S-10 pick-up had decided they wanted to stay on - even with the engine off and the key removed! Mohammed and his team quickly traced this odd electrical problem, replaced the failed relay and got me back on the road again...and, for a very reasonable cost. Plus, as I was unable to collect the truck by the end of the day, they graciously allowed me to leave it overnight. Much appreciated. Thanks to Mohammed and A1 Precision Auto Repair for their friendly service. I'll definitely go there next time I need quality repairs. read more

Long story short, I had to bring the Jeep back here because they did not fix the entire problem. Because of this, they fully charged our battery, kept it overnight, and ran some tests to try to diagnose any further problems free of charge. They were unable to pinpoint our exact problem, but we marked the most likely source as some prior work that was done by another auto shop and is still under warranty. We will be contacting the other shop to fix the problem. Thank you A1 for all the support. read more
