Staff very friendly, honest, and accommodating with very reasonable prices too…read more I went in to swap out my exhaust on my MR2 and they did a flawless job and even waited for my parts to come in since it was on backorder. I am definitely taking all my cars here from now on for all my auto repair and maintenance needs. Thank you David, Lai, & team!!!

So rare to find an honorable repair shop!! Needed new brake pads and they were much less than what…read morethe dealer quoted. It's been a few months now and everything works great! They even explained what the noise was and saved me a few hundred saying I didn't need front pads yet. Now, my car broke down this past weekend. AAA guy was a ding dong who misdiagnosed the problem when jumping my car, and local mechanic tried to take advantage of his stupidity, which would have cost me over $1000. Called Phan's and Lai explained everything step by step, totally patient, professional, polite, and trustworthy. By some minor miracle my car started so I drove it directly to their shop after the phone call. David checked out my car and returned it to me saying it only needed a battery. I AM NEVER TAKING MY CAR ANYWHERE ELSE, and you shouldn't either!!!! No bells and whistles, small shop, but competent, quick, friendly, trustworthy! Choose this place over the dealer to save yourself a lot of money!

I live in San Diego because I prefer to walk more than I drive. But one of the reasons I hate…read moredriving beyond environmental impact is the predatory energy around car maintenance. Especially as a woman I just know they're more likely to take advantage. I got my last oil change here six months ago. I set a challenge for myself to try to only use one tank of gas in six months. So obviously, I have not driven very often. But Google, ChatGPT, and the few men in my life told me that I needed to go get an oil change since it had been 6 months. So I went back to oil changers. To my absolute delight they showed me oil that looked freshly changed. No need to change what's already good. They gave me all the tips I need to know for when I need to actually come back and what I can be doing to maintain my car in the meantime. It would have been so easy for them to just take my money and lie to me. It would have been just a normal errand I'd forget about in a few days. But now I will refer everybody to this location because I am so thrilled with that experience on top of already having a positive experience when I DID need an oil change last time. You don't really expect too much from these limited service shops. But the energy here is good. The people here seem to work well together and after today I will continue to come here as long as I live in San Diego.

Now that I'm back, I came in to get everything taken care of. The service here is amazing, the staff is super kind, and they do a great job explaining what they're working on as they go. Simi was absolutely awesome very respectful and patient while walking me through the process. Kylee was energetic and friendly, and since she also owns a 4Runner, we ended up talking about our vehicles, which made the time fly by! Marco was great as well he clearly explained each service and why it mattered, all while helping out the rest of the team. Well done to the folks beneath the car working, as they did their part too! Huge thank you to this location. I'll definitely be back! Side note: This location is on the naval base. If you have access, just be aware that traffic at the gate can take some time.

I go back in to assist my car and it won't start now!!! My battery was corroded and they said it was bad... i don't have much income right now but they convinced me to do it. Now I'm hoping they'll help me. I'll give 1 star until it's fixed. I'm hopeful. +++ Sylvia and Mario ( and George) we're awesome today. I got a new battery. I really needed it!

Came by Valvoline on Genesee for a quick oil change, and even though they were really busy, the…read moreteam moved fast and efficiently. I actually timed them out of curiosity they advertise a 15-minute oil change, and mine took about 20 minutes, which is still super quick in my book! What I really appreciated was how respectful and straightforward the staff were. They mentioned a few optional services, but when I said no, they didn't push or try to upsell me that kind of respect goes a long way. Thanks to the crew here for the speedy service and professionalism. I'll definitely be back for my next oil change!

By the mustache of Zeus, this oil change company is a national treasure…read more I rolled in expecting the usual "sit quietly and contemplate your life choices" experience, but instead--BAM--professionalism, speed, and kindness hit me like a perfectly delivered news intro. The staff was friendlier than a San Diego afternoon, explained everything with the confidence of a man holding a leather-bound book, and had me back on the road faster than you can say "Stay classy." No upselling nonsense. No shady business. Just honest work, smooth service, and an engine that now purrs like a jazz flute solo. My car feels younger. I feel wiser. Society feels slightly more hopeful. Five stars. I would trust these people with my oil, my vehicle, and possibly the evening news. Stay classy, oil change legends.

I got a first time discount which was awesome, and in 15 minutes they did my oil change, checked all my fluids, checked my lights, added air to my tires, and even showed me the oil dipstick to show what level it was out and how clear the oil was. I was out the door in literally 15 minutes. Jorge was friendly and upfront, super easy to work with. After discount even with a high-mileage additive to the oil change, it was $60. I already told my boyfriend and friends about this place.

Brought my Jeep Wrangler back to Life!…read more I feel safe driving my 2007 Jeep again, it even drives noticeably better! After leaving me stranded, Meineke found out it was just a broken transmission cable and repair was ~$600. Not accusing my old mechanic for the broken cable, the Jeep is from 2007 after all, but he told me it wasn't worth fixing and offered me $2K for it. Thank goodness my boss, a VP, recommended I towed it to Meineke in PB! Not only they did the repair but took the time to ask me what my goal was for the Jeep, keep or sell, and gave me confidence keeping it. It has a few leaks but it's in good shape for my commute and some camping trips out in Anza. Although they were closing on a Friday, they even took the time to teach me, LIKE A FAMILY MEMBER, how to keep an eye on the coolant and oil to make notes on the leaks to go over on our next oil change. Thank you Meineke Team!

The owner was kind and helpful. He told me exactly what I needed and was straight and to the point. He was also very knowledgeable and I can tell he has some real experience. I also wasn't charged for fluids and the diagnostic tests, which was a kind gesture and helped a lot. Hopefully I won't need to see a mechanic anytime soon! But if I do I'm coming back here.

Brian and his team were so friendly, prompt with service and at a very reasonably priced. I let them know I was in a bit of a bind as far as time.

Being a female, sometimes it can be a bit intimidating to go into any type of auto shop by yourself, but Brian was incredibly friendly and explained everything in detail. I'll definitely be back for future service.

Are you going to warranty issues that arise to the switching to an oil that would void a mfg…read morewarranty? I bet not! Higher viscosity leads to higher pressures which lead to seals leaking and failing. I'm really surprised you haven't researched this. How about the leaking oil filter a day after install? Seems like a sure way to get more money outta a customer once their engine gets starved of oil. How about the sloppy work with oil left all over my car? Lack of care and integrity. How about the scratches from resting my tires on the paint of my car? Lazy and inconsiderate. Pulled from the article that copied and pasted "Engine Design Changes: Newer Toyota engines are designed with tighter tolerances and specific lubrication needs that necessitate these thinner oils, such as OW-16 or OW-8." Exactly my 2019 Lexus ux250 is a newer Toyota engine if you weren't aware , so why are changing it?
