    Can't recommend this shop enough. Candido is the most honest and fair priced mechanic I've ever come across, and the quality of work is top tier. He installed a 3.5" suspension lift and mounted/balanced new 35" tires on my truck for nearly half of what I was quoted by other shops. I'll never take any of my vehicles to another shop

    Great and honest guy! Was referred to him by another mechanic for new tires. He's honest and reliable. They are located at the BACK of the complex- theres another tire shop at front, dont get confused. Thanks again Candido.

    Getting Baby Blue serviced.

    The quality and customer service was far out. I was advised on what I needed to give Baby Blue long life expectancy and what not to be fooled with. There's no other place I would trust.

    Candido's Garage is the "real thing," run by the proprietor himself. By going here, you're really supporting small business in its true form. The shop is tucked away in a business complex with a few other auto shops in Orange. They offer a few important services for cars, including brake service, alignment, and oil changes. The pricing on the services is reasonable and fair. The lobby is clean, and all of the equipment in the shop looks current and new. This means they are paying attention to detail, which is really important when it comes to car repair and maintenance. I got an alignment on an older car and the entire process took less than half an hour. Everything was smooth and easy. Mr. Candido himself was friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend coming here if you are looking for a reliable place to work on brakes, oil changes, or wheel alignment. Five stars.

He gave great advice and fair pricing. I will definitely be coming again. He installed a 4 inch ready lift in the front 3 inch lift on the rear with 35 inch tires 20 inch wheels. Thank you for everything !!!

    Candido was very helpful when I went to get my wheels switched and alignment done. He was very attentive and answered the phone. The prices were fair and affordable (:!

    Candido have been servicing our service trucks for our business for over 15 years. His service and knowledge in the automotive industry exceeds him. I can't express the gratitude I have for him to finally have his own family business. To this I will say it's about time! I know Candido is knowledgeable, respectful and always does what best for the customer. I highly recommend him, support this new business. This is a good person with great attitude. Good people need good business!

I dropped my truck off on Saturday, March 14th at 9:00 AM. Around 2:30 PM, I received a call that the four tires I requested to have replaced was ready for pick up. After paying $1,061.57 for the tires and labor, I drove off the lot only for my truck to begin violently shaking, forcing me to pull over immediately. I contacted my husband, who came to assist, but the truck was undrivable. I returned to Stress Free Auto Care and explained the situation. At that point, my husband was already waiting for a tow truck. Instead of addressing the issue, we were told they were closing and would not inspect the vehicle until Monday. I could hear the mechanic complaining that he was tired and didn't want to wait around when the manager went to speak to him. I specifically asked if anyone actually drove my truck to test it and was told no they did not road test it. Obviously. Due to the poor customer service and urgency of the situation, we had the truck towed to Toyota of Orange. After inspection, we were informed that the lug nuts had been grossly over-tightened, three were broken and one was missing entirely. This was not a minor mistake; it caused significant damage to the wheel components and created a serious safety hazard. Proper torque is a basic standard that any competent shop should follow, yet it was clearly ignored. No one from Stress Free Auto Care contacted us at any point the following week. After Toyota kept the truck for a week and a half, we were left with a repair bill of $3,332.03. My husband sent a certified letter to Stress Free Auto Care, including documentation of the damages and requesting reimbursement. The manager eventually responded, offering to reimburse only the cost of the tires without acknowledging the additional damages or expenses incurred. As a result, we have filed a lawsuit to recover our losses. I strongly caution anyone to use Stress Free and to choose a business that values safety, accountability, and professional standards.

There was a short wait at first, but once it was my turn, the employee who helped me was very friendly and professional. He introduced himself and took the time to explain everything clearly. He let me know my spare tire needed to be replaced, pointed out a screw in one of my tires, and explained they could patch it for free. I really appreciated that he also reassured me that the rest of my tires were still in good shape. The wait time to get the tire fixed was reasonable, so I stepped out to grab dinner nearby and came back later. When I returned, another employee updated me right away and let me know my car would be ready in just a few minutes. Overall, the service was efficient, honest, and friendly from start to finish. I left feeling confident in the work they did and really satisfied with the experience. I'd definitely come back and recommend this location.

A few month back, they advised me they couldn't properly perform an alignment because the tires on our car were too worn. Other shops might've just done the job with an "oh well"attitude.

They could patch a tire for about $20 cash, and the service was quick and convenient. At that time, I felt it was a great option. This time, however, my experience was different. I am not sure whether it is because prices have gone up, but the tire looked repairable to me. Still, they told me it could not be patched and that I needed to buy a used tire instead. Since I was already there and the work needed to be done, I ended up paying $60 for a used tire. What disappointed me most was that I originally thought I would be able to keep my old tire and take it home, because I believed I could patch it myself and keep it as a spare. In the end, that was not how it worked. Their used tire replacement process meant they kept my original tire and gave me another used tire in exchange. So it did not really feel like I was simply buying a used tire for $60. It felt more like I was trading in my old tire, which did not even have a hole that obvious to me, and still paying $60 on top of that. The service was done quickly, but the overall experience left me feeling less satisfied than before. Next time, I would definitely compare prices and ask more questions at a few other shops before making a decision.on the car

I made an appointment online for 2:00pm on a Tuesday. When I got there, I learned that they were a bit backed up and it would take between 1.5 and 2 hours. I understand how things like that can happen, but I didn't want to wait that long so I asked when might be a better time, and they said at 8:00am I'd most likely be at the front of the line, so I arranged to be there the following morning. Sure enough, the alignment only took about 30 mins. Tony gave me a printout of the measurements before and after for my car so I could see exactly what had been done in terms of camber, caster, toe, etc. for each wheel. Overall, I was very pleased with the whole operation, thanks to Tony and Miguel for their helpful and friendly assistance. I'll be sure to check out Tire Outlet the next time I need new tires!

(No Brainer) for both. The drive home was absolutely amazing on and off the freeway. The steering was immediately impeccable. I could feel the grip of the road through the turns with total ease and control at any safe speed. Truly the best tires I've ever had. And being on sale saved me over $300.00 on just the (4) tires and over another $200.00 on the Alignment and Warranty. I shopped around for the very best deals. My best friend recommended me to try out the Tire Outlet US Fullerton. Mark was right! This was worth the drive coming from Long Beach. Tony Garcia... You are "The Man!" Also, the reception from your staff was fantastic! No waiting for service. They immediately started on the Alignment and then the tires were shown to me while I was watching a movie in their large very clean comfortable lounge. Awesome tires! Top rated! Thank you so much for everything you've done for me and my KIA Sorrento. This is the safest my car has ever been! Thanks to you! If you're looking for the most knowledgeable, honest and reliable people to service your tire needs, this is truly the place to bring your car. I highly recommend Tony Garcia and the Tire Outlet US Fullerton. I will never shop anywhere else for tires.
