I will honestly say I've never been here before. I'm sure they're probably good mechanics and all…read morebut when I called for a quote on something they quoted me $1,500. So I called the Honda dealership and got the same quote for $750. Called some other local places that quoted me for $756, $761, $764. So I have no idea what's going on over here. But getting the same exact service to my vehicle for 2x the price is actually insane. Typically the dealerships are actually a lot more expensive (in my personal experience) but every place I called was in the $750 range, approximately. No idea why their services was double the price of any place around. Kinda crazy.

James is amazing! My car broke down on a Friday and I was calling around to every mechanic shop in…read morethe area. I am from the Bay Area and we were about 2.5 miles from home when my car started making weird noises and then just died. I was able to start the car up again and get it to our house in Pioneer and get a call out to AAA for a tow. After waiting for our tow truck, I was able to get ahold of Steins Auto Care and I spoke with James who told me to bring my Tucson in so they could see what the issue was. I had the vehicle towed and due to this being a Friday, after 3pm, James advised they could look at my vehicle on Monday. I was fine with that, however, I had no car to get me home. James suggested the Enterprise Rental Agency in Sutter Creek and I was able to acquire a vehicle for a few days. Stein personally drove my Hubby and I to Enterprise and I was able to lock down a car so I could get home for my work shift. James contacted me as soon as they were able to do a diagnostic on my car and had to break the bad news to me. He let me know that the engine had failed and that I would need to have an entire engine replacement. James suggested I have the vehicle towed to Hyundai to see if this would be replaced under the Hyundai Warranty. Thanks to James and Stein, this was a smooth process and I was able to get the vehicle towed to Stockton Hyundai for a full engine replacement. Luck was certainly on my side when I dialed Stein's number for help and I appreciate all of the hard work and assistance provided by this fantastic Auto Shop. Great Job and flawless customer service and care!

Breaking down on the highway while heading home from the mountains to San Francisco is about as…read morestressful as it gets--especially with a nervous pitbull and no real idea where you are. After calling five different shops that either didn't answer or couldn't help, Stein's Auto Shop picked up. Even though they were short-staffed, already busy, and facing a holiday the next day, they said they could take a look. They also strongly suggested a nearby towing service rather than limping the truck in. That advice turned out to be spot-on--the transfer case was completely bound up. Priority Towing showed up, loaded all four of us (truck, humans, and dog), took the 4Runner to Stein's, waited while we dropped it off, and then drove us to a nearby dog-friendly hotel. That alone would've been above and beyond. The next day, the truck was fixed, test-driven, and running like normal. To top it off, the owner personally picked me up from the hotel. The whole team was kind, calm, and genuinely engaged--walking through what most likely caused the issue and answering questions without any rush or condescension. All for a very reasonable price. Owning a small business means this truck matters. A 2001 Limited 4WD 4Runner with plans to see another 200,000 miles deserves good hands, and Stein's proved they're exactly that. Huge, heartfelt thanks to everyone at Stein's Auto Care and to Priority Towing. An experience so good it almost makes the breakdown worth it. --Matt

That said, if it must happen, you cannot do much better than Don Wilke and Gold Country Auto Clinic (GCAC)... Honest, fair and capable... Most recently, I had a breakdown requiring a tow to GCAC... Don should have been on holiday, but one of his staff had been hospitalized and Don was on duty... While I waited for my car to be evaluated, he turned down a potentially profitable job by telling the customer that the work the customer thought he needed was still 10,000 to 12,000 miles out... Ours is an old car about to be turned in... Don and his crew had it up and running promptly at a fair price... When the new one arrives, our regular maintenance will go to GCAC without hesitation... Cannot recommend this facility highly enough...
