Joseph is what some might call a unicorn. He is honest as the day is long and stands behind his work. We all have the story about going to a mechanic and feeling ripped off and then something going wrong afterwards and we swear to never return, all I can say is if you never return then you miss out on a quality mechanic that stands behind his work and will make it right. A true Unicorn in the auto repair business. The prices are fair and the work is top notch. I do a lot of my own repairs however as I get a little older I'm finding its better having Camarillo Auto Repair to keep my cars rolling along. This way I can enjoy them by driving them rather than working on them, I don't hesitate recommending them to family and friends and will continue to bring my cars for years to come. read more

Thank you so so much and we will never ever forget. read more

What a bunch of crooks. My AC was out and they didn't catch the huge hole in the condenser (see photo). Instead, they lied about the hole and just filled up the freon and charged me $123.99 without diagnosing what the actual problem was. The AC didn't last more than an hour. Never come here for any work - they are incredibly dishonest. I went to another mechanic and they showed me the bent condenser and the obvious hole that they should have caught but instead chose to take the easy money and told me to come back if it doesn't work. I would never take my car here again. read more

Great value but most importantly they are honest and quick. I've never had to go back after they fixed something that wasn't done right. 100% recommend them!! read more

Joseph is fair and won't up sell you. He does good solid work. Been going to him for years.

Had a very pleasant experience, which isn't the norm with auto repairs. Very fair prices! I feel they are very trustworthy! I asked for a brake check and was told I could wait 3,000 miles. An unscrupulous mechanic could have told me I needed them done. I highly recommend! read more

Great service quality honest fair prices Smog car repair even replaced window. Great location

Ive been here once before and the owner Joseph fixed my window sensors for a great price. I came here today after trying a few other smog check shops in the area (all not servicing on sat.) to find that Joseph pulled through again. 18 MINUTES IS ALL I WAITED. and my car was done... his service is very friendly and punctual. I highly recommend this shop for quality and care. Good honest pricing too. read more

Jose is an honest and fair mechanic. This can be hard to find nowadays. Thank you for taking the time and helping me with my car.

Joseph is very friendly. However, one of his mechanics put a car part that was not compatible with my car, resulting in a failed smog check, when I tried to sell my car. Unnecessary drama. read more

This place is great. I took my car in because the radiator was leaking. I was assisted by John and he provided excellent service. He clearly explained everything that potentially could be the issue and what was it going to take to repair it. John and Joseph took their time and patience to explain everything and I really felt like I was in good hands. I never felt rushed throughout the whole process. All my issues were resolved and everything was handled well. Customer service is excellent and you can tell they take pride in what they do and it is clearly shown by their honesty. Highly recommend this place. read more

My wife brought our car here to get a second opinion on repairs the dealership said were needed. They offered a much lower price so we had some of the high priority items done. All went as expected. The problem arose during the second set of repairs. My wife brought the vehicle back in to get a handful of other items repaired based on their recommendation. My wife was surprised to learn upon picking up the vehicle that they took the liberty to fix other problems they found, without checking with us first. Though they said some were done complimentary, there was an increase to the estimate they had provided. It would have been nice to know about the additional charges ahead of time. read more

if you have a problem that no one else can solve come here. Joseph will not tell you it is a) $150 b) 275 or c) $425. he will only fix what is broken. read more

My 2009 mini cooper has oil leak issue for a while, it got fixed here with very reasonable price, and I would recommend all my friend here. I have been to many auto shops, and this is the best one in the area. Highly Recommended!!! read more

This place is a JOKE. They tried to charge me $85 just to run a diagnostic. AKA- plugging in a little remote and seething what code pops up. I laughed all the way to Adolfo Auto where they did the diagnostic for FREE like decent people. Don't waste your time here, go somewhere else. read more

Joseph took his time and explained everything wrong with my car to me. The work was done perfectly at an amazing price. I'll be bringing all my cars here. read more

Took my Lexus there for repair. Joe, the owner did a great job and at a fair price. Only thing keeping it from 5 stars is....they need to clean up the place. read more

This place always seems very busy but efficiently run. I have used them twice in the last two years. Yesterday, I called them in the morning, brought the car in in the afternoon, and it was ready by evening. I also believe them to be honest. Both repairs they did for me were based on diagnostic codes read from the car's computer. Both repairs I believe should have been relatively quick and straightforward. Indeed in both cases their diagnostic/minimum labor charge of $85 was all I paid for labor. This week, they replaced the air fuel mixture sensor. They charged $210 for the part. I have reason to believe they might have found the part cheaper (OEM part was $130 on Amazon) but I am no auto mechanic and I could be mistaken so I will not pick nits; especially since they got it done so fast for me. In any case the total cost of the repair was mid range of what I should have expected to pay in my area per http://repairpal.com. read more

great place, they explain everything and are very transparent through the process. will tell you if something can wait Joseph will help you understand the problem and what goes into the repair if youre curious, and all the mechanics are always friendly. prices are fair read more

Took my car there many times . They are honest, quick, good service and the prices are great. I trust their work I always recommend them to My friends and family. I always have good experience when I go there. read more

Update: I had a feeling that they put used engine oil in my tranny. Well, I just changed my tranny fluid and the place I went said they have never seen that color black before so that just validates my feeling: This place was recommended and I seriously don't know why. Took my car in for a tune up. It drove ok prior to taking the car in and after I picked it up the car runs like shit. I will NEVER go back and if you are reading this avoid going. They screwed up my car!!! read more

DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR HERE! THEY WILL RIP YOU OFF! I brought my car in because the a/c wasn't getting a good flow out of the center vents and it was making a knocking sound. I told the owner that I was informed it may be the compressor but I'm not sure. He told me to drop it off and he would take a look. I was quoted $525 for a new compressor, labor included. I dropped the car off for repairs and was told the next day that now the was an actuator that needed to be fixed but it wasn't a necessity. I asked him just to fix the compressor since I figured that was the main issue, after all, I'm not an expert. The next day I pick up my car and nothing was resolved! The air flow is no better and the knocking noise still occurs. Apparently all that needed to be fixed was the actuator and not the conpressor. The next morning I returned pick up my old compressor and talk to the owner. He was not in but his nephew who works there was. His nephew told me the compressor was fine and he wasn't sure what I discussed with his uncle. He also told me he would help me resolve the issue and even refund me. Well, the owner called me back to tell me that the compressor has an issue (which was never disclosed) and that he wouldn't refund me. Shame on me for listening to the recommendation to come here. read more

What More can one ask for... great service a good mechanic and the job done in one day I highly recommend this business...

Very honest mechanic. Joseph will tell you if something doesn't need to be done. So, if he says you should, then you know to do it. I highly recommend him for auto repair and maintenance. Will continue to bring my cars to him. read more
