After getting my two front tires replaced, I needed to get a wheel alignment. I did not want to go back to the original business that sold me my rims due to prior bad experiences and they also stole my Army knife. *That is a story for another time.* My dad has known the owner for some time and was not aware that he had opened his own auto business. He took my car for a total alignment. The price was very reasonable compared to other tire shops that go anywhere from $120-$180 my before measurements and current measurements look completely different and I am happy I was able to get it done quickly- no appointment was needed, and the wait was not long at all- for the quality top-tier!!! 10/10 definitely recommend!! read more

I was recommended this place by my brother. He set me up with Jorge. Reasonable prices and car was done quick. I think I found my go to mechanic! Thank you Jorge! read more

My car needed a safety inspection to renew the registration. Fahrenheit was listed on the CARB(California Auto Repair Bureau) website as certified shop for this service. I called them for a quote and it was very reasonable compared to several quotes that I got. I made an appointment for next day, and when I got there, I didn't have to wait long before they started on the car. About an hour later, my car was ready for pick up. Felix was really nice and we chatted about the history of the car. He indicated that the car passed but informed me where the car needed some attention, which I appreciated. The experience I had was really great, and I can highly recommend the shop. read more

I came to these jokers because they are down the street from me. He looked at my car and looked like he didn't want to bother dealing with it. He sent me away. clearly he didn't want to work on my car, which is weird because he was sending money out of the door. Not professional at all. I went to another store that I've worked with and they took my car and worked on it. I don't know what's wrong, but I'm glad that these people didn't work on my car. Their energy was off. read more

One of the best shops in the area, they do all your brake and tail light inspections, which is one of the only places that still do that repair for salvage vehicles that can still be driven and have a good running car. Excellent place for smog you're in and out very quickly, very knowledgeable and professional staff read more

Went in for a wheel alignment, and he had me in and out of there very quickly. Very good service, and a nice staff, will go again for my car needs. For an alignment, they also have really good prices too. read more

I already had a great mechanic when I found this shop, But they didn't do front end alignments. My go to tire shop recommended Felix, who was working for another shop nearby at the time. The shop he was working for didn't appeal to me and I already had an excellent mechanic, But Felix became my alignment guy and in the process became a good friend. He doesn't work just to get paid, he works for Being the guy who accomplishes the job. Is jump forward a few years. Felix found a partner and they opened a shop together. They called it Fahrenheit performance auto and the name says it all. My mechanic retired and sold his shop, But my family was fine. Now Felix is our go to guy for everything. He's not just smart about cars, He's smart about people and he makes sure you understand What went wrong and how to fix it. He doesn't up charge, he doesn't play games, And you always feel like you have a friend who you can take your car to. read more

Felix and his team are extremely knowledgeable, friendly and most importantly honest. They will always make you feel welcome and have realistic honest prices. You're in good hands with this place. read more

2009 Honda Civic Si needed new alternator. Jorge gave a reasonable estimate. In a few hours car was ready.

I have used Fahrenheit on several vehicles, my personal vehicles, and our work trucks here at Planchon Roofing. Felix the owner is great. I can't say enough good stuff about this place. They know what they are doing for sure. read more

If you have a BMW don't go here seems like they don't like working on them. They always brush me off.

These guys are people who care about their customers and do very very good works. On the day before yesterday (Monday May 5), I accidentally ran my right front tire over a sharp (5 star sharp) rock, and while the tire could keep running with it for a little, the tire was going to hell. We managed to get there and they checked the tire ("can't be fixed") and found a tire that could be used on my car, so it got put on, saving me a heckuva lot of time waiting to get/find a tire and have it brought in. They know their stuff and are friendly and helpful. Any time I need to get tires fixed, I know EXACTLY where to go. read more

LATE UPDATE - I meant to change/update my review last year. So here goes: I thought this business was good until my brakes continued to scrape and squeal after two weeks of driving. I took my car to a different mechanic and found that my "new rotors" and "new brakes" that were supposed to be installed by Fahrenheit were not new at all! Everything was old!!! I ended up paying the new mechanic to have my rotors and brakes changed/installed properly that should have been done correctly in the 1st place. I WILL NEVER GO TO FAHRENHEIT AGAIN!!! If I could give them -10 rating, I would. read more

Needed to get a break and light inspection in order to renew my registration. At first I went to Auto Row Smog on Broadway in Oakland because of the high reviews. After a couple minutes, I could tell either the 5 stars were sponsored or something. Brian had complete disregard for my time. Went twice and nothing was done to my car. Even asked me to keep my car overnight Afterwards, I called this location but nobody was answering. Decided to drive by and inquire and we'll enough he squeezed me in the next day estimating 2 hours. Went the next day and was out in an hour or so! Super honest, straight forward and even gave me the suggestion to make copies of my documents since the DMV lost their previous customers paperwork Overall: I'd recommend going to this local shop! Thank you again for the service and thorough inspection. Not a lot of places do break and light inspections anymore. read more

Came for spark plugs for preventative maintenance and and left with a check engine light. I have had my car for 3 years and never had a check engine light. As I was walking up to my car the mechanic said "yea its all done, I even cleaned your maf sensors." Mind you I never asked for that and went to start up my car and noticed there was a check engine light. He runs the code and it happens to be codes for the maf sensors. He then says he will take off the stuff he took off to get to spark plugs. While doing that he dropped bolts that hold together my engine cover. He was applying so much force trying to get the screws out that the plastic was flexing and afterwords noticed that the plastic around the screws were now cracked. He also made it to where the screw wouldnt come out due to the damage he made. I will never go back here. Beware read more

Felix and Jorge are the best! Thank you for servicing my car. Definitely coming back and i highly recommend Fahrenheit! Much love

Fahrenheit - Car getting aligned - Auto Repair Near Me - San Pablo, California

Came in here after scheduling a brake and light inspection on my wife's car. The gentleman who took care of me (I forget his name, but he seemed to be either a manager or owner) was extremely kind, down to earth, and helpful. Due to some nonsense regarding a salvage vehicle inspection w the DMV, I had to reschedule a few times. Regardless, the shop was kind, understanding, and patient with me. Many thanks. read more

This is one of the best shops in Richmond. The owner Felix is an awesome guy. His customer service is out of this world. He's the first mechanic I consider my friend because of how he treated me when I first came to the shop. If you want hospitality if you want to be treated fairly and if you don't want to be beat out of your money this is the place to be. read more

I lowered my c5 corvette and needed to get an alignment done. After searching on yelp I found Fahrenheit, a local business and after seeing all of the positive reviews I gave them a chance. Couldn't be any happier! Felix is really friendly and he was able to fit me in on a short notice. Very professional and they do a good job. Definitely bringing my other cars here and recommending this place to my friends and family. read more

"Are you kidding? He can do every move I've ever done! Do you know what a good mechanic is worth? You can't compare that to sex." - Jerry Seinfeld da Scene: After getting new shoes for my Infiniti QX70 at the infamous Richmond Tire shop (see my review and don't even think about hitting a chain shop for tires) Jeff referred me up the street to Fahrenheit (and Felix) for the alignment work. I popped in 8:30am Saturday hoping to be 1st in line, but Felix was already hard at work on a Challenger (sounded GOOD, makes me wanna upgrade the rumble factor for my ride). I ask him if he can fit me in for an alignment and that Jeff sent me, he smiles and nods and says "let's do it.". da Service: The shop has four stations, 3 w/ high quality lifts, is clean and organized. I hung out w/ him and talked it up while he was working - I really dig being able to see under the truck on a lift, it's a different perspective than on a jack in my own garage. While this spot is relatively new, Felix has been a technician around the neighborhood for 15+ years and his knowledge and confidence showed. He's got updated diagnostic equipment and had me in/out in 25 minutes. I'll be back w/ the Explorer which needs some work after 200k+ miles. da X Factor: Felix is a cool cat and made me feel valued as a customer, you get the great trustworthiness vibe and the value is spot on. Chain shops are easily 30% + more. I've been looking forward to building a relationship with a neighborhood shop, this may be IT. Explorer is up next, I'll update the review then, Thanks Felix! read more

Dropped by after getting new tires. Got my car in quickly without appointment or calling ahead. Fair price on alignment, did a good job. The alignment machine looks brand new. Friendly people here made some conversation and felt very easy going and no pressure to do anything I didn't ask for. Location is very easy to find and can turn into the parking lot from either side of the street easily. Would come again. read more

Jorge is the absolute BEST mechanic I've ever come across! It started back in February when my car died as I was on the freeway driving to work. Thankfully, I hadn't gotten too far from home when it happened so I was still in the area. It was a Sunday at 7am when this happened so I knew it was gonna be impossible to find a mechanic that was open. I tried looking for one anyway. I googled for hours and around 11am Jorge answered his phone. He told me if I got the parts he could do the job. I dropped my car off at 1:30/2pm and he was done by 4pm. Fast forward to June...out of nowhere my car wouldn't go passed 40 MPH without jerking really hard (misfiring). I took it to Jorge. He told me to leave it and he'll call me when he figures out what was wrong. I began walking down the street thinking he wouldn't call me until the following morning, at least, especially since it was around 4pm when I dropped my car off. 15 mins into my walk my phone rang. Needless to say it was Jorge Not only did he find the problem but he fixed it! At that point, I couldn't have been more excited and impressed with his work. Lastly, 2 weeks ago my headlight went out so I needed the bulb replaced. Who did I call?? That's right! Jorge! He fixed it in less than 5 mins and told me not to worry about it when I asked how much. I couldn't not give him something. I offered to buy him beer, he said he doesn't drink beer. He said he'll take coconut water. Coconut water it was! He's fast, sufficient and friendly. I always just walked in, no appointment. He knows his stuff and he's not the mechanic that tries to get over on u. Being that I'm a female, I was a little worried about that happening but it didn't. I even asked about my brakes and he could've easily said yes, get them fixed. Instead he said I definitely need rotors but my brakes are 40% good so just wait to replace everything at once. He's simply THE BEST! read more

I can't say enough good things about Fahrenheit. They walked me through every step of the way telling me exactly what was wrong. They diagnosed the issue and fixed it the same day. Getting work done on a vehicle is such a scary thing because it's so easy to be ripped off, but Fahrenheit made me confident I was getting the best deal. They were helpful, extremely nice and I am so thankful I took my vehicle here. Thanks guys! read more

Bad business, check engine light is still on after they were done for the same sensor. When I came back and asked why the person who didn't even work on my car told me I gave them the wrong part and wasn't able to give any money back and now I can't return the part read more

Fahrenheit - Auto Repair Near Me - San Pablo, California

Felix is the man and my new go-to-guy for car repairs. I went in for a four wheel alignment. He has a wealth of knowledge of all things cars, and is happy to share it. His alignment equipment was top notch and camera-based which I was told is better than laser. He noted that I would save 3% by paying in cash, and even told me how to rotate my tires properly. 6 stars is more like it! read more

This place is amazing!!!! Best services ever with talented and honest mechanics. Highly recommend this place!!!!

I appreciate a honest and good mechanic! I've came here on fluke needing help as to why my engine light was on. Nervous and confused, I was scared it was something major. I Met Jorge and he's been an absolute saver for my car. He located the problem fast and was very specific on the issue & fixed it. Fast forward, had to see him again bc my brakes were not working right, scared as heck not knowing what the issue was. Again he pin pointed the issue, fixed it like new bringing my car back again. He's good, efficient, fast and honest. I highly recommend this place for your card needs. Jorge and the other mechanics are all on point! Thanks again Fahrenheit!! read more

Recommended by the technician at Richmond Tires. I asked for Felix. This place is professional, friendly, knowledgeable and caring. It's hard to believe I've spent my day tending to auto repair chores - a subject I avoid at all costs. I highly recommend this business. read more

Felix is one of those rare mechanics who is honest and generous. I've been going to him for all of my wheel alignments on my 2014 Honda Civic since 2017 and always walk away SUPER satisfied. His price if beyond fair and the best I found around the Bay Area. Even though I've moved away from Richmond, I still make the trek to Oakland to get my wheels aligned here. read more
