To do a transmission for a Chevy Silverado 2000 might take you longer than you think. I dropped my car off on August 25th of this year and they still haven't gotten back to me. Javier was the guy in charge of this, he said it was just a "flush" that it needed yet not responded ( plus over priced ) I called and asked for the truck and the name who was working on it ( remember my husband dropped off the truck at the location we both agreed on taking it at ) they said they didn't have it and that the guy wasn't there. I'm going there tomorrow wish me luck guys ! :) read more

My daughter had a catastrophic car failure late in the day and Absolute Auto was the closest shop. I called Sean and let him know that my daughter was on the way. Sean couldn't help the car, complete engine failure, but he stayed late and made sure my daughter got into her Uber and on her way. If I ever need a mechanic in Santa Ana, no doubt I'm heading their way. read more

Absolute Auto has been my go-to for the past several years! Words cannot express how much I value their services... but I'll try! Sean has always been incredibly friendly, reliable, and honest, which is difficult to find within this industry. I've never been upsold or offered a service that wasn't needed - in fact, Sean refused to sell me services I believed I needed but didn't. I've referred all my family and friends here because of their excellent work and customer service! Auto repair can be scary when you are inexperienced. There are plenty of horror stories out there of being manipulated and abused. You'll never face that when you reach out to Absolute Auto. read more

horrible customer service very rude as well dont call or go here called about something guy was very rude and hung up right away as I was speaking keep in mind I was being polite to him !! read more

Fast service.. they dont want to keep cars there so they work fast but in a professional level..

I have a small plumbing company and I bring our fleet here for all our repairs. Sean is so honest and does great work. Years of looking for a great mechanic that got the job done. I have been using Absolute Auto for the past 10 years. I refer all my friends and business associates. I have a 2013 Ford Edge with 185,000 miles on it and it still runs great. Thank's Sean for all you do for us. Kim read more

I pulled up for some car issues but the place was packed. I couldn't find parking so I pulled up near the entrance. I couldn't find anyone in the office and was going to leave. Someone who I'm assuming was the owner pulled up and asked what I needed. I replied, "Service". He rudely asked if I called. I said, "No". He then said, "Well, you see how many cars we got out there?" I did not like how he responded because it was rude and condescending and will not be back. read more

As a fleet manager for the past 4 years I have had multiple vehicles either serviced or repaired with Sean. Everything from HD2500 transmissions replaced to oil changes on our Prius. Absolute Auto has always been open and honest about pricing and working with me on the cost. Sean has always met the time frame or sooner on extended jobs using quality parts and providing exceptional customer service. I'm extremely happy with the professional service and care taken by Sean at Absolute Auto. Thanks for the great work Sean. California Waters, Yorba Linda. read more

I have been going here for years. Sean is the owner and he's very trustworthy, reliable and he is a wonderful diagnostician. He never performs work that does not need to be done and he'll be very upfront. Even if I just take my car in to be serviced I can just Drop it off knowing that he will look at everything to make sure that things are good. Not once have I encountered where he has done work that has not needed to be done. Honesty and integrity in all things. read more

Absolute worst customer service experience ever I drove around and walked around their garage for 10 minutes with no help when I asked someone can they help me I got 2 people telling they can't one person said they are on the phone must be allergic to money read more

just spoke with my nephew yesterday which brought back memories of dealing with Absolute Auto. Sean is a really nice guy. But left my classic 95 SL500 Mercedes at Absolute Auto with a full tank of gas and noted the mileage with a pic when I dropped it off. When I picked up the car, the tank was nearly empty with 160 additional miles on the odometer. Sean denied any wrongdoing and promised to fill the tank which never happened. He was recommended by my nephew so I took no action against the shop which I should have. Joyriding with a client's car is inexcusable under any circumstances. Be careful which shop you trust with your vehicle. read more

I was set up here through an App that connects you with AutoShops. I don't trust mechanics usually because I feel like they are always out to make an extra buck by making you think you need more work than you actually need. That was not the experience I had here. Sean was very professional and his energy was not like any other mechanic's. It felt like he wanted to service my car and getting paid was a benefit. He even wanted to give me a discount but couldn't because the app had to take its cut. Definitely will be coming back here again. Thank you Sean!! read more

This place is incredible! I dropped my car off yesterday around closing time and Sean was nice enough to take my car in still. He said it would be ready the next day, and sure enough he kept his word. He changed my transmission oil and even gave me advice on how to maintain my car to keep it running smoothly. Not only that, but he let me know which parts I should look into replacing soon so that I had a heads up on what I would need done. Overall Sean was amazing- definitely a trustworthy mechanic that I will be coming back to! read more

I have been taking all of our family's cars to Sean (Absolute Auto) for years, actually even before he owned Absolute Auto. He NEVER overcharges and often finds ways to keep the price down and recommends ways to reduce future repairs. He is very ethical and he stands behind any work they do. He charges a fraction of what dealers charge and since he is certified, he performs the same quality with the same confidence. read more

I took my car in after someone scraped it in a parking lot. Reasonable pricing, amazing service, he continued to send me updates throughout. My care was done in a day and a half!!! Looks like nothing ever happened to it. Thank you so much! read more

Was recommended here by my friend George C. Turned out to be the best decision for my car. Sean and his team have helped keep my 27 y/o truck on the road. Has 300k+ miles on it and they keep it running like its new! I have limited time with my work schedule to get my truck over, but luckily Sean always has the time to stop and see what's up with my truck, even on very short notice. Fair and honest prices which is awesome. And won't charge me for anything unnecessary! It's once in a lifetime to find a mechanic like this so I'm sticking with him! Thank you Sean and your Team read more

Absolute Auto, Absolutely the best! Sean is professional and knowledgeable. Being hardworking and honest is a bonus! I am in the area at times, but I only trust my mechanic who was about 50 miles away, AAA tow and time was a problem. Sean was highly recommended to me and was close by so I took a chance. I'm glad I did. Now I have two mechanics that I trust. read more

Sean is awesome, he explains the problems in detail and works hard to get you a fair price.

Given the area I would have never expected there to be such a great shop. I brought my 2002 civic and my 2011 mazdaspeed 3 here for service. The civic really needed some work and the Mazda just some basic maintenance and boy can I say you get dealer service at the cost of a private shop. Sean answered all my questions and even gave me some good advice on how to keep everything running smooth. I will be bringing all my cars to him and recommending him to all my family members. Parking is a little tight but he always finds a way. I will be back! read more

Best mechanic ever. Honest, fair, and reasonable. What more could you ask for? Sean is going to be my mechanic for life. read more

Sean is amazing. Never have I felt like I could trust a mechanic so much. Always very kind and down to earth and gets work done FAST. I will never go to a different shop. I never do yelp reviews but for the outstanding work I see from absolute I couldn't help but to do so. read more

Went in for an oil change and a diagnosis since my engine light also came on. Michael was super awesome and helped me understand my options in parts since it was my catalytic converter and those babies aren't cheap. He then did a quick oil change and gave me some tips on how to keep my engine running smoothly and clean. Super cool guy, see you next time Michael! read more

Oh man! Can I give more than 5 stars? I came in expecting typical, high-baller mechanic prices and came out so grateful to have this shop down the street from my house!! I went in in desperate need and Sean went above and beyond to help me find the part I needed at a local junk yard, get it delivered to his shop, and install it for a decent, honest price the very same day! As a college student, I deeply appreciate such a friendly, honest (affordable) mechanic. Will definitely be coming back here!!! Thank you Sean :) read more

We have been taking our cars to Sean for years, very personal and kind. Let a friend borrow a tool when she got stuck miles away, will come and pick you car from you business if you cant make it. Honest and fair pricing. read more

Sean has been maintaining my car for many years now. Really nice guy! I always tell my co workers and friends to go there because he knows what he is doing and I think he has a very reasonable price compared to other shops plus he takes care of you! read more

I have been coming here for about 4 years and am never disappointed. Sean always takes care of my cars as if they were his own. He is very personable and doesn't cut corners but doesn't tell you that your car needs something when it doesn't. We have 3 vehicles that Absolute Auto services and our cars are in great condition because of Absolute Auto. Thanks Sean! read more

I love absolute Auto and Sean! Great quality work and service done to both my infiniti and dodge. I always go to Sean for oil changes and brakes. He does a lot more work than that too! Transmission, engine exchange, ac, and more. If you want an honest and friendly mechanic whom you can trust with your car, absolute Auto is the place to go! read more

I first was introduced to Sean about a year ago and it got started on the wrong foot. One of my really great friends give him another chance and I did. He is a honest and a great mechanic. I glad I gave him another chance. I send all my friends to his shop. read more

Thanks for fixing my 5 series once again ! Best service in OC , highly recommend sean and the crew!

I know what a great person Sean is because of my affiliation with a local church group. I can tell you first hand the kind of generous heart this guy has. For more than 15 years Sean helps out the local community in countless ways and came highly reccomended to me from a personal friend who literally could not stop talking about him. Sean gives back and he cares. Call ahead, make an appointment and consider yourself lucky to find a descent honest mechanic. This guy gets busy and it is no coincidence. read more

Sean and the mechanics at Absolute Auto are absolutely amazing! He is very knowledgeable and has great prices! I don't take my cars anywhere else. I recommend my family and friends all the time. He may be busy so call and make an appointment or plan to drop your car off. The service and pricing are definitely worth it!!! read more
