Peter and Chris are great mechanics, honest as the day is long and the service costs are very fair. Highly recommend Coastal Foreign Auto.

These guys are great. I've used them consistently for my vehicles over the past 4-5 years…read more Today, I took a Mercedes in and it was found I had some issues with the exhaust. Project that would have likely cost me several thousand dollars. Ian, their advisor, instead shared with me that I had an extended warranty with Mercedes and I could take it to them to have the work done for free. I've never dealt with a shop who's ever done something like that. Highly recommend

OVERCHARGING - I brought my 2005 Jeep Wrangler here as a new customer to replace the driver-side…read moreseatbelt buckle. I supplied the part myself because Jeep no longer makes it, and I asked for an estimate for labor only. I was quoted $480 and was explicitly told this was a high estimate and that the final cost would likely be lower unless the job turned out to be unusually difficult. This repair is very straightforward and, based on standard repair information and widely available tutorials, should take about one hour. This is not a complex or labor-intensive process. There are four bolts to remove the seat and one other bolt to remove the receptacle for the seatbelt. When I picked up my car, I was charged the full $480 with no explanation. The invoice did not include an itemized breakdown of labor hours, labor rate, or how the charge was calculated. After I questioned the charge and pointed out that this is typically a one-hour job, they reduced the price by $50, bringing it to $430, which is still extremely high for this type of work. They later offered $100 off as store credit if I brought my car back, but I'm not comfortable returning, since my concern is being overcharged in the first place. This shop had an opportunity to fix the issue by issuing a fair refund, and they chose not to. I was hoping this would be an honest, reliable shop for all of my future repairs, but they have lost my business. If you're a woman, I'd recommend coming here with a man so you're not overcharged based on assumptions. After reading other reviews, I noticed that another woman described a very similar experience of being overcharged, which makes this feel like a pattern rather than a one-off mistake. I left feeling like I was taken advantage of. Once I pushed back, the cost suddenly dropped, though still not to a reasonable amount. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this shop. Transparency and fair labor practices matter.
