I have been going here since I moved to the area @ 15 years ago. They have taken care of all of my cars with great care and professionalism. Ryan and Andrew have always been very nice, honest, to the point and will always tell me if I need something or if I don't need something. Always fair pricing and cheaper than the dealer of course! I love these guys like family! read more

Superb value and expert troubleshooting! The team will definitely figure out the most elusive symptoms and recommend the right fix the first time. We recently moved to the area 2 years ago and were drawn here based on their local award winning "best of Pasadena" service reputation. That award is well deserved and we always bring our cars here for service of all kinds. I am a systems engineer by training and these guys "speak my language"! We have two VWs that are 10 years old and thanks to the Chesapeake Car Care team we expect another 10 years from these cars minimum! I have detected a pattern on the handful of one-star ratings here that are artificially driving down their Yelp score--someone with a beef (I am guessing a competitor who is unhappy they keep winning the Best of Pasadena award) asked a few of their friends to post a bunch of hyperbolic 1-star reviews--I notice that for each of these likely fake reviews the person has only ever submitted ONE review to Yelp ever--one guy even claims they forgot to put his oil filter on and it ruined his car--total nonsense. Bottom Line: These guys are awesome! read more

Got an inspection and supposedly I need this part to fix the "jerking problem" I had. Andrew told me he would order it and to come back to get it fixed. I had some hesitation but because he said he's ordering it (wanted to be a woman of my word) I came back. My family had been going here for a while spending thousands of dollars. Anyway, a couple days later I had the exact same problem, after I paid the inspection also. Therefore he labeled it and said it's fixed. Ryan worked on but Andrew drove it when I returned. Andrew says "Yeah it is "jerking ". I said " thanks Andrew" that's why I brought it here because of this and was told by Ryan"It's fixed". I explained the problem wasn't fixed and I would like them to fix it or give me my money back. Andrew says no, if have to talk to owner. WAITED OVER 4 CLOSE TO 5 HOURS FOR HIM ( TOLD HE WAS PLAYING BASEBALL). He comes in walks right past me and gets behind desk. I explained everything and said Andrew drove it and felt same thing. Andrew now "hesitant" owner there and says yeah maybe it's spark plugs? The inspection, drove and label what it was for sure and now I need spark plugs. " No sir please return my money " I said. Told about how my family spent thousands and owner says very condescending" I don't care nothing about that". Hours of sitting, harsh interaction, no apologies and refused to fix car. Must take this further, Signed the African American Woman read more

We took our truck there and they used NON Honda parts, so we had to have the same work done a few months later by another company

As a customer in the last few years I have taken my wife's car back to service and tires... its a Mercedes and they did an awesome job... the work was first rate, the price was more than reasonable. Thank you guys... Ryan, Andrew and the owner Duane were terrific. Customer for life! Ron read more

I've been going to Chesapeake Car Care for over 11 years. They are honest, trustworthy, and do an awesome job! Their prices are the the best I've seen and they truly care about doing quality work. They even fixed my car that I was told by another shop to junk it. I've been to my share of bad shops locally and can honestly say that Duane and Ryan are the absolute best!!! Always providing great customer service. I've referred many family members and friends to Chesapeake Car Care over the years and everyone has always has the same excellent experience. No issues are too big or small for them. They handle it all and have services all of our family vehicles both foreign and domestic. I'll never go anywhere else! read more

This is the worst place you can get your car fixed Ryan and Andrew plays a lot of games if you are a females they tell you to get parts for your car put them on charge you then tell you that you didn't need that part for your car Andrew is very disrespectful Ryan always lying about your car going to be fixed I've been trying to get my car fixed there for the last seven months they messed up my rack opinion and don't want to fix it the owner is never there this is the worst place ever I spent over $2000 trying to get my car fixed and it's still not fixed read more

Chesapeake Car Care replaced a part on my car without making sure that it would not cause further damage. What's more, they signed off on my car passing all safety inspections. Within three weeks, my car became unusable due to what Chesapeake Car Care did. They deny any responsibility for this, and refuse to fix it or even refund me the $2000 I paid them to essentially break my car. read more

First, I will state that I'm a employee currently working here. This will be a informative statement. I've been working in shops for about 10 years now 1 and a half at Chesapeake Car Care 10 in total. I never heard of a employer telling a employee at just because someone has a bigger toolbox they are more valuable . So it's not about what knowledge you learnt overtime is about what you see. Second I just don't know where to start. I am your employee not your child don't tell me after 10 years I don't think your hearts in it. I love working on cars when I start it's not going to stop. Your not my DAD big dog. I work hard every day to service the good people of Pasadena. This is a running review, will post more as it unfolds. Jun 15, 2020 Acting like the kids running around protesting. I'm acting like the people from over the weekend. He's talking about the black lives matter event on 6/6/20 in Pasadena. He thought they were going to riot and loot. I don't see how that had any point of Professionalism of my job as a Technician. The second thing is that you cant point out ones mistake at just someone. But then when the question about everybodys mistakes is asked the answer is "everyone makes mistakes". Yes I have brought up my concerns more then once. First time I was told we don't have time to train people, he just needed people that can come in and do the job. And if I couldn't cut it I was to be terminated. He didn't know what I was capable of, understandably. I accepted the challenge worked hard because I try. Second time we talked I was told that I don't have any value to him and hard work does not count for anything because we all sweat. Even thou some sweat hell of alot more then others. If my CONCERNS were dealt Professionally I wouldn't have to write a review to make a point. It's crazy that people can't talk but they can read right? that's crazy! read more

Dave just called me with the best news regarding my muffler. My suv got done a lot quicker than I expected. Total price was very fair. Dave was thorough explaining everything. Thanks, Dave appreciate it! Wally Flores read more

A few years ago this WAS a very good place to have your car repaired. That was then, this is now. 3 strikes and they're OUT. 1) The clutch they replaced failed within a couple of months. RE-done BUT -- see third item. 2) Axle on wife's car failed after a few months. Knurled end was almost unconnected. I had another mechanic fix it locally because, with an axle ready to fall off, I couldn't even risk a tow. Chesapeake refused to cover cost ("should have brought it here" -- With a broken axle?). 3) For my car (Firehawk) the transmission has to be taken out in order to replace the clutch. After 2 or 3 more months the transmission almost fell out completely; extremely loose. It make a racket sounding as if it would break apart. I was fortunate to find a mechanic who fixed it without high cost and without further trouble. Initially I intended to take Chesapeake Car Care to Small Claims Court. Too busy; it took a few more months to write this since the last (loose transmission) problem. I feel obligated, though, to alert customers. I have no idea what happened to Chesapeake Car Care. It's lost a lot. read more

i went there for a oil change and they messes my car up andrew forgot to put my filter back in and oil started leaking. when i went back they refused to fix the problem that they caused i would not recommend this shop to anyone. read more

After Mr. Tire down the road started overcharging for services and not delivering the quality that I was used to (for the 5 or so years I went there) I decided to shop around. Two family members of mine recommended these guys and although I was skeptical at first it turns out that CCC is top notch as far as I'm concerned. Ryan (the manager?) is absolutely fantastic and will give it to you straight. They also seem to charge incredibly reasonable rates for the labor and the mechanics seem far better than those you'll find at the regional or national brand chain-store type shops. Been coming here for about 1 1/2 years now. read more

Simply the BEST mechanics we have ever dealt with! Honest & fair priced. They've even helped friends of ours who were traveling across the US (and were low on funds) for free! read more

They are fast. Take very good care of my car. Friendly. Not too expensive. Great service!

As a new resident to the area, I need to find a new mechanic, starting with my state inspection so I can register my car. Based on Yelp and Google reviews, I selected this company. It took about 4 business days for them to get me a waiting appointment (they could do it sooner if I would drop off), but they started on my car right on time. I had a couple of items that needed to be addressed to pass inspection and they came up with an ad-hoc solution for one, and installed a new bulb for the other. On top of that, they charged me no additional labor charges for implementing the ad-hoc solution for me nor for installing my bulb. They walked me around the car showing me how things were doing and were very transparent and straight-forward. Already made an appointment for our other family car and will be using these folks going forward. My only caveat is that if you are looking for a waiting lounge with vending machines, comfy lounge chairs, a free Keurig machine, flat screen TVs, etc......you should go ahead and go to the car dealership (and pay triple the prices). They have a perfectly acceptable small waiting room with 4-5 folding chairs, a table of magazines, and a single bathroom - like many of my other past local hard working mechanics. read more

My husband and I have been going here since we've moved to Pasadena 5 years ago. I was desperately looking for a nice "mom and pop" shop to service our vehicles. Our first experience was awesome and we continue to go. Ryan is the best! He provides great customer service and very helpful advice/tips. I wish all car shops were like Chesapeake Car Care!! read more

Super friendly fast service. Both my mom and myself take our cars hear. They are honest and reasonable and I wont take my car anywhere else. Highly recommend! read more
