I love this place!! Honest!!!!! Family owned!!!!! Very reasonable prices and they DO NOT DO UNNECESSARY WORK!!!! How often do you get that from an auto mechanic???? We moved here recently and for us finding a new mechanic is always tricky when we move. We had Cats Automotive in Fremont and he is the best for Fremont but we went through 3-4 to find him.
Clemen's is great!!! They are our new Tracy Mechanic!!! They need to fix the voice mail though as I don't know if they even have one but once you get a hold of the lady she is AWESOME. I won't worry about this small thing since they make up for it with everything else. She calls you when you forget to call her and she communicates with you very well about your vehicle. I feel like she is my truck's mommy in a good way.
I can't say enough about this place. I went to Advance auto just to get my truck to pass smog (it was running perfectly) and they said I needed a new engine and a few other things. WHAT!?!?!?!? Then I went to Clemons and they were practically laughing over the phone once they looked at my truck. They said there was no way I needed a new engine for another 100-200k miles because I have a 1984 toyota pickup. I mean come on folks... most of you who are not even mechanices know that 1984 toyota pick up trucks with the famous 22R engine lasts 300-500k easy. Plus you can rebuild them. Plus I don't even know if you can buy a NEW 1984 22R engine you would just be getting a re-built one. So does that mean Advance Auto cannot even rebuild a 1984 22R engine? I guess that is what it means. I will trust Clemon's to rebuild my engine when the time comes. I love this vehicle, obviously since I have had it since 1987. I am the 3rd owner but have had it a long time! I would think a mechanic would realize that it is my baby or why the heck would I have kept the darn thing so long as a second vehicle? Advance has no consideration for how you feel about your vehicle and I think most people take pride in ownership of their vehicles. Clemons understands this!!!
PS, no my truck is not for sale everyone asks. BUT if you REALLY want it I am willing to sell it for 100k. :) That is what it means to me.
By the way, back on the subject, Clemons had a FAST turn around too. I just can't say enough about them. They fixed my truck so that it would pass smog (it was running perfectly by the way when Advance said they wanted to put a new engine in). Clemons simply adjusted the carburetor, fixed a wire to the alternator, took my truck to their smog place that partners with them and had my passed report automatically wired to DMV and some other small thing I can't remember. The price for the work was spot on. I was so happy. I will use their smog place in the future also since they have a good relationship together and know how to get your vehicle to pass smog.
THANK YOU SO MUCH CLEMONS AUTO!!!!!! read more
