First time going to Cornerstone; was recommended by a friend after my catalytic converter was stolen and got it replaced the same day. I also went in the next week to get a shield for the catalytic converter and have had no issues since. Initial estimate seemed right on the mark; the final cost was a bit higher than desired but the mechanic provided good reasons for the higher cost. The staff was friendly and very willing to help, and they were excellent in their communication throughout the process. Would definitely return again! read more

This summer I finally took my car in my some much needed TLC. I brought my 2014 Tahoe in to get the rear differentials replaced and new brake pads. I cannot tell you enough about the wonderful service we received from Cornerstone Auto Solutions! Phil has an excellent team and they do a great job of keeping me informed throughout the process. The work done is great and I feel that the price is fair and affordable. What's more important is that I know that my car will be safe driving around and I don't have to worry about my brakes or rear differentials locking up on me. I'm planning to drive this Tahoe into the ground so every now and then it does need a little bit of work and the only place I go to is Cornerstone Auto Solutions! read more

These guys were great, easy and straight forward with me. Much love for this crew. I'd recommend anyone to these guys

We love cornerstone! Highly recommend it. Lopez does an excellent job of communicating about the needs of our vehicles and updating us throughout the process. Zach does a great job of following up after we have had our car in for work. Their owner, Phil, is incredibly nice and has his team go the extra mile every time. read more

They fixed the door lock on my 2001 Toyota tundra Had it for a couple hours and called me when it was done when we got there they went over the door lock and it's mechanics very thorough and professional read more

Been coming here a couple years now. I place a high value on integrity and honesty as I'm sure we all do when working with mechanics and others who could easily pull the wool over our eyes. With Phil and the team at cornerstone I don't have that concern. I know he's gonna be upfront and tell me the pros the cons and what he would do for his own vehicle to make sure it's safe and reliable --and keep in view what things might be more optional or "so you know". From inspections on a used car purchase to scheduled maintenance and brake jobs I have been fully satisfied. You may find cheaper but that doesn't mean you will find a better value. read more

I was having an issue with my Dodge, I didn't have an appointment but they did they would see what they could do.

There ship was clean and everyone was very professional to take to and they followed up with a text a few days later to make sure everything was working as I expected. Outstanding.

I have a 2008 Mercedes C350 and needed well overdue maintenance on the car. What we got done wall all the fluid changes as well as the suspension which was blown out. But they charge a hefty $150 to do a full thorough inspection. Upon the inspection they found an oil leak from old gaskets on the engine, motor mounts and transmission mounts that failed. That $150 was well worth it. She felt uncomfortable driving it daily thinking it will break down, but now having it all fixed sounding and feeling like a brand new car it was money well spent. It might be pricey, but you see the love that they put into their work. I especially loved their worker Jake because he was very nice and professional with getting back to me with the updates on how far along they were with the car and when it will be ready by. This place is a little pricey, but if you normally go to the dealership to do regular maintenance it's cheaper than that with more quality work. Also Danny thank you for creating a great team to work on my mom's car. read more

Couldn't be happier with my experience at Cornerstone! Phil and Lopez and the whole crew took care of me. I'd never go anywhere else!

I left my truck at a shop called Foothill Auto (a very good shop) to have a big job done. The shop was bogged down with a ton of work and to hold the timeline they were shooting for, they subbed it to a neighboring shop called Cornerstone Auto Solutions. After a conversation with Phil Nakhla the owner, I agreed to allow the shop to do the 4x4 conversion work to my truck, but I never received anything from them (paperwork) saying that they had my truck, what it was there for and what it was going to cost. I called twice to speak to Phil and was handed off to someone named Lopez who kept telling me Phil was busy and would call soon. 10 days later however, they (Lopez again) demanded $2500 before they would get started, still no paperwork. I sent the money to them (after questioning the demand for money) and asked for some paperwork, then was told thats not how they do things. Two days later when I finally spoke to Phil again and I pressed for something in writing, Phil told me he was quitting the job and giving me a refund because he didn't like my attitude. I got my money back thank god! I would steer clear of this place unless you want have arguments with the guy. Not an ethical way to do business in my opinion. I'm happy to say that Foothill Auto is going to make room for me and get it done. They felt badly that I was treated that way as I've been a loyal customer for years Foothill Auto is a better place to go. They're integrity is solid! read more

Top notch quality Phil is the most humble sweetest man and his staff is amazing. Hires people with great personality like Lopez. They really make you feel like family and go the extra mile to do things that may seem small but to a mom of 7 kids and often to tired to wash my car, I was in tears when I showed up to pick up my van and find it looking like a new car. I didn't even recognize it when asked why would they do that for me they simple said "we wanted to take one thing of your plate" and we can't have our customers in a dirty car haha really they are so amazing and I'm so happy this place was recommended. I can't imagine ever going to another mechanic ever again. Thank you so so so much from the bottom of my heart God bless the staff at cornerstone auto solutions read more

Just picked up my serviced vehicle from Cornerstone today. Cornerstone was recommended to me by a family member and I am glad that I took my vehicle to them. Lopez provided great service from start to finish, keeping me closely updated with the vehicle issue and throughout the steps he had to go through while dealing with my extended vehicle protection insurance company, which I know was not easy. Lopez was very informative and transparent throughout the whole process. I know professionalism when I see it and the service, communication provided to me was top notch. Will be going back to them for future vehicle needs. read more

Took my car to get the fan pulley fixed, Tried to Charge me 550$ for a part that cost no more then 200$ at auto zone. Claimed the lifetime warranty and other things was the Reason, When autozone Has a Lifetime warranty also for cheaper. I towed my Car there So I guess they figured I would settle for it and bite the Bait. But i didn't Took it To Good Auto Repair and the boss Hoss was trust Worthy and Said 1,100 was way to much for this job. I ended up paying total 450 for the pulley, belts and Labor. It felt off from the start of everything. Trust your instincts shop around Don't settle! read more

Integrity * Honesty * Honor * Trust = BLESSING! The team Phillip has is beyond amazing. I have been beyond blessed with the above and beyond service he and his team provide. I came into the shop with a check engine light on. The team was able to diagnose the issue and have stood with me on the journey to correct the issue. I am forever grateful for this. I will always CHOOSE Cornerstone Auto Solutions. These guys are the real deal! The team of experts he has are trustworthy and gracious. We all need a mechanic at one point. Phil and his team truly have you! You know it and feel it from the moment you speak with them. A breath of fresh air to find a trustworthy AMAZING shop that both cares about me and my car. read more

My wife has used this place several times in the past for service on her 2009 Toyota Camry, and I finally took my 2012 Toyota Tacoma in a few weeks ago for the first time to get an oil change. I spoke with Mark on the phone and he was very pleasant and helped me schedule an appointment. Upon arrival, I met and spoke with Phil (the owner) who was also very nice and personable. Phil is a devout Christian, and I have full confidence in his team's competence, dignity, and customer service. Because it was my first time bringing my truck into Cornerstone, Phil recommended their $70 inspection to give me a baseline assessment of the current state of my truck. Everything went smoothly, and I now have the peace of mind that there are no looming problems that I need to address at this time. The only thing to be aware of about this facility is that they don't have a customer waiting area, so you'll need to make sure you have a ride home while you wait for your vehicle. read more

I would highly recommend Cornerstone they treat your car as their own! Came in after reading reviews and after I hit something in the road and bent my rear axle they took the time to see if it was fixable unfortunately there was too much damage and I needed a new rear axle for my car they explained everything that was needed perfectly. The repairs done everything is perfect! read more

Update after owner Phil saw my review and reached out. He and his worker both checked the transmission fluid and both still believe it "looked" like it needed service but qualified that by saying you can't really tell with CVT transmissions, because there isn't an easy/quick way to get a thorough sample. When I asked if he thought the previous mechanic did a poor job 2 months ago and do I need to follow up with them, he said no, and that he knows that mechanic to be reputable (we would have gone back for our current issues, but they are closed this week). After chatting with the mechanic we ultimately went with for our repairs, he shared that 2015 Civic CVT transmissions use HCF-2 fluid which is a brownish/yellow/grey color unlike the typical bright red ATF. He said quick visual inspection isn't always enough because of the color of the clean fluid, and you really need to consider how many miles since it was last done. SO, I still don't feel great about how Cornerstone initially approached the transmission fluid. Knowing what I know now, I'd expect to hear, "hey, your transmission fluid looks like it may need replacing. It's hard to tell visually with this type of transmission/fluid. Do you recall when you last had it replaced?" All the same, I don't think they're sheisters at all. Even after I shared my price concerns with one of my friends who uses/recommends them, she stood by her recommendation (her husband works with equipment and does all the less complicated repairs on their cars, so they are not naive). I still stand by my review. Three stars for high prices. If you want to pay dealer prices for good service, they seem like a good option. If you don't, go somewhere else. There are lots of other reputable, more affordable options within a mile or so. Cheers to a free market! read more

My car had been having issues with starting & wouldn't do so unless you reset the battery every single time. I finally decided to take it in here at the recommendation of my coworker and it ended up being a fantastic experience. Very welcoming people and eager to help! Ross was the one who took a look at it and immediately had a course of action! Very very bright guy & provided so much knowledge to help me better understand the issue. It was fixed within a few hours and I cannot stress how happy I am with the experience. Extremely reasonable pricing & very clean shop. Ross is awesome & I will definitely be recommending this place to everyone I know!! Thank you again :) read more

I highly recommend Cornerstone! They are the place if honesty and professionalism is important to you. They know what they're doing, and will always work with your budget to take care of issues that are important to your safety first, then go from there. read more

Hands down, these guys are great. You get off the phone with them and wonder if you really just spoke to a mechanic. It's unreal. I mean, Levi has got to be one of the most articulate, polite and personable mechanics I've ever come across. Not like I'm in and out of shops all day long but I've been through enough vehicle repairs to know that these guys are a diamond in the rough. My first time calling in for something, I must've interrogated Levi for like 20 minutes on what could be wrong with my car and why, and how does he know? Is he sure? What does he think about this option and how does this thing work? I was a like a little kid tugging on the hem of his shirt to answer my every question. And you know what? He did. Thoroughly and clearly and in a language I understood. And this was over the phone as well! It started all over again when I went in the shop. Answered every question with patience. This is cool for a woman who knows not that much about engines and pulleys and all that crap, to be able to follow along and have someone walk me through the steps without rushing me or pushing an up-sell. And not just Levi. I've spoken to Phil as well and was equally impressed with his professionalism. Truly impressive customer service. They open early and close late, which makes it convenient to pick up and drop off. If you're after hours, and can't make it in time, they have a handy drop box where you can securely leave your key and park your car in the lot for them to start on in the morning. Each time I've taken my vehicle in, they check back with me promptly on a diagnosis. I've never had to hound or follow up with them for answers. Considering my previous experiences, I feel like their pricing is fair. Maybe a little on the higher end. It's like Nordstrom Rack. You get real nice quality for cheaper than going to a BMW dealership, but should still expect spend a few pennies. Maybe the best part of all was the Christmas card I received this past December. Some people don't care about these kinds of human touches but I totally dig it. Customer for life! Thanks for taking care of my 4Runner, guys! You're the best! read more

Levi was my first contact when I called Cornerstone. I had a problem with my AC system. I went cheap and tried one of the one can recharge kits. Long story short it didn't work. Levi and Steven are the "go to" guys. As other Yelper said these guys are "it". I'm coming back read more

My Mom and Stepdad took their vehicle in for an inspection and oil change. They were very impressed with the thoroughness of the inspection and the service they received. A couple weeks later they came back to proceed with the list of recommended maintenance They dropped off Mom's vehicle with the promise of getting it back in a couple of days and were pleasantly surprised when it was completed the same day. Per my Stepdad " It's impressive you guys actually put all of the nuts and bolts back on. There's no extra parts." :0) He is very particular and is super happy with the service. If you need a mechanic this is the place to go. Great guys, good pricing and they know their stuff. read more

Cornerstone Auto are one of the few honest mechanics in the business. They don't try to sell anything you don't need and they don't overcharge either. read more

This place is outstanding. I came in last week for squeaky brakes and a new battery. Phillip is the kindest and most honest individual you'll ever meet. (The other guys who work in the shop are great too, just can't remember their names) He will be completely honest with you and tell you what needs to be done immediately what doesn't and what can wait. Very reasonably priced. It's very hard to find auto shops that respect women but I felt very respected there and they treated me like family. I will definitely be taking my car here for all my service needs from now on. read more

Phillip and his crew are the kindest and most polite group of people that I've ever dealt with! I would trust them with any of my vehicles, they do a complete safety inspection on every vehicle. While I was in for service, they found that my tires were completely worn out. I had not noticed how much they were worn, however, they showed me and I was shocked. There was no pressure from them and i appreciate their professionalism. I will be back in a week to have them replaced. Great shop to go to! read more
