Choe's is quick and honest with his pricing and car inspection. I had just had an oil change at another location telling me I had to have all kinds of repairs and he only found one to be needed. I highly recommend him for your auto repair needs. I had my rear shocks replaced and it didn't take too long for it to be done. I'm very satisfied! read more

I have taken my last 2 vehicles to Steve to maintain and I would not use anyone else. I moved out of the area but recently returned and just purchased new vehicle. Steve will be my man!!!! Even though it will be a 2 hour drive to see him--he is worth it. You cannot go wrong with Choes. read more

Owner is not a bilingual but good with diagnoses and will tell you what he can do or cannot do. Honest and does good jobs. So far he had worked on my 4 cars and I have no complaint read more

Took my truck to wheel woks and received an estimate for $1300. Steve checked it out, determined I did not need all the recommended work done and I walked out the door spending $350! Awesome, honest and excellent customer service!!! read more

Wow, where to even start. Ive got an older Toyota and it needed some TLC that i knew it needed but I had put it off. After getting my tax money back, I went with a close friend to see them just less than a week ago. Sean, stopped what he was doing and immediately walked over and asked what i needed done to the car and told us to give him 2 1/2 hours to complete the work needed for my passenger side CV joint. Right on time, i return to find my car completely fixed up and now in driveable condition. The price i was quoted was fair and right on, i was even charged a little less. Im not sure as to why, but either way it was great service from start to finish, but the story doesnt end here... Two days later, im driving to work and find smoke coming from underneath my hood. Thankfully I had made it to work and was parked, trying not to panic I went to work and let my car cool down as i determined that the radiator was leaking fluid. I called Sean again on my break while at work and explained to him my findings and i asked for the worst possible rough estimate on a quote for replacing my radiator. Again, being suprised... it was a greatly fair deal! He told me to come on in after work, driving carefully of course. I pulled up, he immediately hopped on the phone and ordered my radiator and told me it'd be about an hour and a half or so. (this was at 4pm) I walked to school (nearby) after dropping my car off and patiently await for the phone call to denote the completion of my car. Shortly after 5:30 (it was like 3-4 mins) i recieved the call. When i arrived the car hood was still up but it was good news, he replaced the fuse in my car to get my clock back in working order as it wasnt ever really a priority when ive got a watch and what not. Overall, both times being treated in a polite, friendly manner, and $500 later, I will most definitely be returning to Choe's for all my work and passing along my great experiences to all my friends and those looking for a great mechanic in the Concord area. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and I trust Sean completely to be fair and honest with me (meaning if he cant do it, he will refer you to a place that will do you right). It's not too often you find that in a mechanic these days, so to Sean and the rest of the Choe's awesome crew, Thank you so very much. You will forever have a customer in me! P.S. - I should really buy you all a round of beers sometime! read more

Quick service, no hassle, reasonable prices! Got a motor oil change, transmission oil change, and tire rotation.

Good service. Quick, reasonable pricing and very thorough. Went in for routine check on my civic and they gave me feedback on everything, down to the windshield wipers! Will be back for sure. read more

We have brought two different cars in for repairs. Feel like they give you an honest quote and no issues with repair. Showed parts and explained what was needed. Got us right in. read more

I've mostly had good experiences here, so it feels a bit strange giving this place only a 2-star rating. But there is a reason for it. On the good side, they do good work for very reasonable prices. They are very quick to help you and will do the work for less than many other shops I've been to. I was glad to discover them and took my car to them at least 6 or 7 times over the last 3 years...until I had an incident with one of their mechanics named Sean. Here's what happened. I brought my car in with an electrical problem. Sean came out and did some testing. He thought he had figured it out and fixed it, so I left, only to have the problem reoccur shortly after leaving. So I brought my car back and Sean came out again. I made a comment about the car having this same issue again -- did not accuse him of anything or say anything bad about him in any way -- he totally flipped out on me and became argumentative and confrontational. He had completely misunderstood what I said (his understanding of the English language really isn't what it should be -- if it was he wouldn't have blown up like that). I then tried to calm him down and tell him he misunderstood me. He continued to be upset telling me "Well you are saying it like it's my fault" which was NOT at all what I said at any time. Additionally, it turns out Sean misdiagnosed the problem. After I brought my car back in there he now insisted the problem was with my car key, so I went to a locksmith, and the locksmith told me the problem was NOT with the key and gave me additional information which convinced me the problem was indeed not with my key. So reluctantly I brought the car back to Choes, now for the third time. I told Sean what the locksmith said, and Sean started to argue with me again, until a very much older gentleman at Choes came over to closely observe what was going on (maybe Sean's dad?). The older guy never said a word, but once he started watching Sean suddenly became much more business like and professional, got out his electric meters, did some more testing, and lo and behold he came to the conclusion that he had indeed been wrong initially and the problem turned out to be something they could fix after all. So he fixed it and became much nicer after that, but as far as I was concerned the damage had been done. I haven't been back to Choe's since and I won't be going back there again due to Sean's outbursts and, at least in my opinion, his mechanical shortcomings. Bottom line: Overall this is a very good shop mostly and I've never had a problem there previous to the Sean-incident. I wouldn't try to dissuade you from bringing your car there. Most people have had good experiences, and their prices are pretty reasonable. But NOBODY wants to have a mechanic jump in their face over something they misunderstood and misdiagnosed and was not the fault of the customer. That should never have happened like that. So if you do bring your car there and the mechanic you get is Sean, well, you've been warned... read more

Our first visit was phenomenal - they gave us the best deal in town to switch out our front brake pads and rotors. The labor wasn't too expensive ($135) and we had provided our own parts. We left feeling very happy to have found a good, honest mechanic in our area. When we had a small problem with our front passenger window, there was just a small stripped screw that messed up the window guide that keeps the window securely on its track. My dad is a mechanic and told me it was a simple job that would take him little time to do if he were here in the state. So I took it in to Choes and they got the parts (a grand total of $6.00 for the screw and backings), took them no more than an hour to do the job, and they charged us $170 for labor!! Because the tiny stripped screw was difficult to get out. At a MECHANIC SHOP. Where you have great TOOLS to do that. Our front brakes had stripped screws too but they didn't rip us off at that point! No, they made us think they were awesome so we would come back, THEN steal from us. The work was SO minimal and done so quickly, I could not believe how much they charged. They lost all our trust and we will not be back unless they try to rectify this situation. read more

Steve is honest and his service is reliable and efficient. We have been taking our Lexus, Toyota trucks, and Chevy Cobalt to Steve for a few years now and he's maintained all of our vehicles quite well. If something doesn't need to be serviced or a part doesn't need to be replaced, he'll tell you. He's truly a trustworthy mechanic. The pricing for his labor and services are more reasonable than taking our cars to the local dealerships. read more

Got an estimate on some work from AA transmission place. Choe's did the same work and saved me $2000. I'll always take my rides here.

I know, I know, 5 is the max on Yelp...but if it were possible...I'd give Choe's 10 Stars!!! The only shop my car knows is Choe's. The hubby introduced me to them 7 years ago when my old Tercel decided to spew out liquids from under the hood. Before then, the hubs had been a loyal costumer since they opened back in 2001. They kept it real with me and told me that it would be up to me whether or not I wanted to fix the leak in the Tercel, however, they did let me know they didn't think it would be worth it to fix. I ended up buying a Lancer. Everytime I need something done to my car, I immediately think of Choe's. They're friendly, professional and most of all, quick & reliable. Their prices are reasonable (they don't rob you of your hard earned money) and they do a great job on any job, whether big or small. Unfortunately, the clutch on my Prelude died yesterday and without hesitation, I knew I wanted it towed to Choe's because they would take care of me right away. Sure enough, they took my car right in (4:17 PM) and started diagnosing the problem immediately. We got a call 40 minutes later from BOTH Steve (4:53 PM) and Sean (4:57 PM) letting us know what needed to be done. After approving the work this morning...my car is currently being worked on. My poor Prelude has been through a lot the past couple of years but regardless of what needs to be done to it, I know my car is in good hands when I take it to Choe's. On a side note: I went from a Tercel, to a Lancer (yes, they worked on that car too!!), to my current Prelude. They have taken care of all three of my cars and have also worked on my husbands Camaro and my mother-in-law's Camaro. Choe's is definitely the family mechanic and will stay that way for a very long time (probably until they retire, if they ever do)!! ^__^ UPDATE: I approved the work on my car on Tuesday and it was ready to be picked up on Thursday morning (2 days later). read more

I would not recommend this auto repair shop. They removed the rock guard on my truck to drain oil and replace oil filter. The rock guard has a large hole in it for access to the drain plug. The oil filter is also reachable to the drivers side of the truck around the rock guard. There was no need to remove the rock guard at all. When they replaced the rock guard they used what ever screws they had in a tin tray, not the originals. The screws they used were also not tightened and some left out entirely. I watched all this happen and assumed that since I was standing in their doorway watching, they would do a professional job. Certainly not the case. If I could I would give them no stars at all I would. 1 star is being generous. read more

Steve is the man, I brought y Lexus in for brakes and he changed them out in less than 2 hours saving me time and hundreds of $$$ from other shops. He is my go to now and will be coming here from now on. I highly recommend CHOE'S! read more

Fast, friendly service. I had a coolant leak, and all these other problems that were repaired in no time. I am not very car savvy and I am always looking for competitive prices, and these guys did the job. read more

Steve helped me out with an oil change today. He got me in and out in less than an hour & was straight forward with me. I will definitely be back. read more

Been coming here for 8 years . I've never had a negative experience . He is honest and very reasonably priced . I went one time to get a simple oil change at another shop and well the broke my water pump , choe replaced it for $275 . And I will never trust anyone else with my car . read more

I just can't say enough about how awesome these guys are!! They are very fast with getting you in and giving you an estimate, they are very fast with the actual repair, they are honest and never tell you to do stuff that is not absolutely necessary, and they are friendly. What more could you ask for? They are truly a God send!! read more

Called half an hour before they closed and asked how much a broken windshield wiper diagnosis would cost. This is after I went to some D&H or something like that auto shop on Monument who wanted to charge me $135 for the diagnosis alone. Choe's said the diagnosis would cost $60. Dropped off my car, he called half an hour later and told me the motor was out. I drive a Lexus so the stock price was like $250 for a new one. He offered me a used one for $100 and said he could do everything, including the diagnosis, for $250. He had to order the motor and it got there on Friday morning [dropped it off Wednesday evening]. When I went to pick up my car, he showed me the motor like he was supposed to. Super fast, efficient and trustworthy. Although I did find out a Toyota Camry motor would have worked just fine. Silly Lexus name brand made by Toyota. read more

Great, no non sense mechanic in concord. Price is reasonable and car is ready when promised. I will be going to him first for all my car needs. Thanks. read more

He's one of the kindest most reputable people in the car business. His honesty and professionalism go far beyond any dealership you will ever go to. read more

These guys have seen a few of my cars now for various issues (some self inflicted and some not). They are always extremely helpful, trustworthy and reliable. I never feel like they are trying to upsell me or even sell me at all. They just give good, honest advice and let me decide the best way to proceed. They're always my go to. read more

Steve made our decision easy by giving us an upfront quote on the brake job I needed for my Mercedes. I've been looking for the right auto repair location since the Mercedes Benz dealership never seems to be transparent and the bill always ends up being a surprise. Choe's was the easiest repair shop I've ever dealt with. When I dropped my car off, Sean helped me out and understood my needs and was very accommodating with me bringing me own parts. They got the job within the time block they projected. Thank you Steve and Sean, very happy. I will refer others. read more

I took my car to see if my engine was Crack or any similar problem.The guys at choes told me it did and they were fast at addressing the problem.sadly I need to get it replace but they recommended me to junk it since it had 300k miles that it wasn't worth replace since I be spending more than what the car was worth.Not only that but they Did not charge me at all for checking my car,and my girlfriend goes there All the time and they're rates are very reasonable. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CHOES!!! read more

We found Choe's via YELP! Thank You, thank you thank you Yelp! fanz.! An HONEST, TRUSTWORTHY, FAIR & FAIR PRICED AUTO SERVICE CENTER! Huzza!!~ We are definite Fanz! Had an old '97 Ford Escort; the little red 'service engine' light was on often. It got so that if it ever wasn't on I thought something was Wrong. They fixed it each each time and would recommend other auto service providers that I may need. Such as smoging. Well the ol' workhorse became too expensive to fix,( figuring the KBB among other reviews of\for the same make/model/mileage). What about replacing the '97? * Choe even gave us frank "yeas" or "nays" about reliable used car(s) and truck(s) that we are in the market for. Com'on, who better would Know which ones to buy or avoid than a man who fixes them? An HONEST, TRUSTWORTHY, FAIR & FAIR PRICED AUTO SERVICE CENTER! Huzza!!~ This is the Place; Choe is the Man to go to! read more

fair and honest, he's not out to rip you off. i always took my car here when i lived in concord

These guys are GREAT. I took my car in today just to see if I could set up an appointment to have my brakes checked. Something sounded wrong in the back. They actually pulled my car right in, put it up on the rack, and showed me how my brake pads were clearly worn down to almost nothing. Then they offered to fix it right away. They charged me a very fair price, had the parts very quickly, and even changed my oil when I asked them if they could do it. I was in an out quickly and will definately be back. read more

Choe's first started out by Bart and that is where they got my attention. I could leave my car there and walk to catch my Bart train. He first helped me with quick diagnose of faulty power window switch free of charge. He saw I could fix it myself and sent me away. I was very thankful for that observation. I have been receiving his help on my Buick since then. They are terrific!!! Know what they are doing!! Fairly priced!! Good recommendations is always provided. He is getting busier these days as the word gets out as to how great they are!! Nice family operation! read more

I have been coming to Choe's for several years. They have fixed several little things for no charge. Saturn wanted to charge just to figure out the problem. Very honest, fast and fairly priced. Would go no where else. read more

I really like this place. I recently moved to the area and he was the first person I took my car too and has been the only one in the past two years. He is very honest and gets the job done. He always explains things to me as well and as a woman I respect him for that because there have been many times where auto shops try to get over because I'm a woman. The only reason I gave 4 and not 5 stars is because I showed up to get an oil change at around 4:45 and he wouldn't accommodate me. I just feel like after 2 years of loyalty I should be given a strict 5pm cut off time to show a little customer appreciation. Overall I recommend this shop. read more

Nobody touches my truck but Choe. Fast honest and great price. Don't waist your time going anywhere else.

Had my fuel pump go out on my Tahoe. Brought it in at 830 and out by 230. Fast work and honest thanks Steve and crew for the fast repair.

Can almost always get same day service. Maybe 1x of 11x had to wait longer than 10 minutes for an oil change? The rates are very reasonable for labor. Go here for your car service. Never been let down. read more

Everything you want in a repair shop. Pulled in and they started checking out the problem. Ordered wires and had it fixed in 2 hours and didn't over charge. I highly recommend. read more

Oil light came on when stop at traffic lights. Took my T&C to Choe's to have them diagnose. Steve and Shawn look and advised the oil sensor switch was leaking. They replace it and all fixed. $15 for the switch. I have been going to them for 20 years for all my cars' service and problems. They are always honest and quick. They give you their diagnosis and what it required to fix it. If the service is not read yet they will tell you and won't charge you. For example, I asked them to check my brakes. They did and told me I still have 35% of pads. So, I do not have to replace them yet. Thank you Shawn and Steve read more

I've been coming here since they were on Concord Blvd. They are also wallet friendly and never do any unnecessary work. It's always good to have a great mechanic, and these guys are it. Even when work has been more troublesome they never exceeded their quoted price. I highly recommend them. read more

The alternator in my Chrysler 300 SRT-8 gave out on me the other day and called Choe's for an estimate. They quoted me for less than half of what the dealership was going to charge me. They did a great job for a fair price. Will go back again without hesitation. read more

Price quoted was fair and reasonable! Way below high dealer mark up cost! Shop was clean and organized. Always busy because of limited staff! Only owner and his assistant personally attend to your vehicle. Be sure to call and make an appointment. Occasional reminder to follow on status of work! For major repair work need to allot more time. No shuttle service. Costco is nearby and taqueria walking distance at Detroit St to kill time. Waiting area not too cozy! Uses after market parts considerably lower than OEM! I hope it last as long as OEM! Takes Visa card payments. Bottom line, I was happy with the repair work which would have cost me over $1.5k. I only paid 1/3 of the dealer estimate! My vehicle is now running smoothly again! read more

The best mechanics ever!!!! I have been taken my cars there for 11 years and they are honest, right on the money about diagnostics, and most importantly they don't rip you off, I wish I had found them sooner!!! Steve and Sean are the best mechanics ever... read more
