Kimberly at the front is an absolute life saver ! If they don't hAve the specific item you need she will find it for you quick and affordable. I am so thankful I came here. read more

I would totally recommend this place for any car service. Some guys busted in my car 1 month ago and messed up the starting switch. Other mechanics told me they needed other parts and I needed to get them myself. I brought it here and they fixed it under 4 hours! They also fixed my window ! read more

I have a 2005 Chevrolet 4x4 Crew Cab LT that is Baby and Pride N Joy. I plan to keep her for over 20 years and keep it OEM. Well one day one of the most common things that go wrong on this model is with the stereo CD player. What happens is that it fails too eject the CDs or CDs get stuck. I shopped around and could have upgraded to Bluetooth and have Sirius and the whole nine yards but then it would not be OEM and cost me a pretty penny. I was fortunate and met an honest vendor who referred me to Force Electronics who did repairs. I was very thankful for this because I really wanted to keep my truck in OEM condition. I called and left a message but never got a call back so I went there to Santa Ana and met Adolfo Acosta who is the Owner and President of Force Electronics. The place was in a shopping Strip Mall with an anchor Mexican Food Market. This place was a real discovery and had just about everything you could want to upgrade your auto stereo and more. Being a small business man myself I was quite impressed by the the entrepreneurial enthusiasm Adolfo displayed to me. He gave me great quotes that blew other vendors out of the water! I could have purchased a new upgraded system for my truck because of those superb bargain quotes. But chose to have my old system repaired which was why I initially came there for. Adolfo then just had me drive to the back where the techs removed my stereo and tagged it for service. I paid up front and Adolfo said he would call me when it would be done by the following day. The back parking was bustling and at times difficult to park but once in the service area the techs jumped right on it and I was in and out of there in just a couple of minutes. I came back the next day and as promised the vehicle was ready. The techs reinstalled my old stereo just as fast as they removed it. My OEM stereo is now working like a Swiss watch! Adolfo told me the stereo repair had actually been completed the day before and he had tried to call me but he did not leave a message. None the less I am very satisfied with the service, speed, and prices at Force Electronics and I surely would go here again. Oh and by the way, Force Electronics guarantees their repairs for 6 months. Thanks Adolfo.... Merry Christmas to you and Dolores you made My Christmas a little more Merry... especially when I play a couple Christmas CDs in my truck this 2016 Month of December! =) read more

Force electronics is the number 2 spot to go to for any car stereo needs including tints! They are trusting with great prices and awesome customer service! If you are looking for a sound system for your car make force electronics your first stop. I guarantee you won't be disappointed! read more

I wouldn't trust them with any kind of service on your car. Maybe window tint but that's about it. I was referred here by the dealership I bought my car from so I trusted their work but eventually everything started going bad. They say they do oil changes so I'm like ok I'll get one then. But they don't even have oil there! They sent one of the guys there to go buy some at the store and overall I waited almost two hours just for an oil change. Next time I came in was for a car battery. Their prices were about $30 less than other places which I thought would be convenient for me at the time and I even recommended someone else to get theirs as well. Both our batteries died in less than a year!! His died first after only 4 months so he went back to the store and was told by an employee they couldn't do anything about it because supposedly it was stated that the battery was reused when we purchased it. This was never disclosed to us! I wouldn't have bought it in the first place. read more

I came to force electronics today and got a great deal on a stereo and speakers for my 99 Dodge Durango. They even installed them! It was great it only took 15 minutes and I walked out with new stereo system and speakers installed. Everyone was friendly and professional, great service. The owner was the best very professional. I'm coming back! Gracias !!!! read more

I called them to get a quote, he said he have the part and when I drove there , they didn't have it ! I took my Lexus GS to them , They charged me 70$ just because they opens my dashboard and put it back in . Didn't have the part!!! They are not nice to costumer and all they care is money ..... They don't care about having a good reputation .... Not professional at all read more

Excellent place to get car window tinting done! The owner Adolfo is a superb businessman and gentleman. Good quality job at extremely competitive price. I highly recommend Force to all my friends and family. read more

The C D in my 2003 Lexus stopped working. The dealer said I need to replace with a new one at approximate cost $1,200.00 Other option was to buy a used one from Ebay at $79.00 and find one to install it. I asked my mechanic who recommended Force Electronics and Adolfo the owner. Adolfo said he can repair it for $100.00 and wait time of two hours. Even though I live in South Orange County I gave Adolfo a try. To my delightful surprise it was fixed with one year guarantee. It took longer than the two hours but the extra time was worth it. The workers and Adolfo are hard working honest people and thy know what they are doing at a reasonable price. I highly recommend this company. read more

I don't know why there are so many negative reviews, unless it's a cultural/machismo thing that the other reviewers felt. Admittedly the owner was terse on the phone but in person was a nice guy. I actually called my mechanic to make sure there wouldn't be any problems. My tech was diligent and hard working. I think I was fortunate to have found this busy shop! read more

I came here today because passengers door lock and window switch didn't work. Owner Adolfo said it would be $60 for each. I accepted and Alejandro was the tech who worked on my car. He did a good job on passengers door. Just one tiny little thing. Now the switch on drivers door for passengers window don't work. It's an old car so no big deal. Just glad they fixed my door lock. read more

I took my car over there to get my window regulator fixed they initially said they gonna replace it with a new one but instead they took out the old one and fixed it somehow and reinstalled it in the car, when I was watching all this the mechanic who was doing this got nervous and asked the other guy to tell me to go and sit in the shop. I told this to the owner and he said he has ordered a new regulator and it's on its way, in the meantime he said he wants to fix the old regulator. At the end of the day he fixed the old one and put it back in the car and told me to come back after one week if there is any problem. Bunch of liars read more

This place really suck !! I took my truck to put an alarm and then I had to take it back because it was having trouble in the end the owner told me the stereo they put me was really cheap to upgrade it for a better an expensive and then he try to argue with me that stereo wasn't there's .. it's stupid because I had the receive an it said there name an everything so I just took it some where else.. the owner is a lier . The ppl that work there dnt have experience they just burly learning . That's what I found out from one of there workers that used to work with them . Dnt take your car here read more

This is one of the worst if not the worst auto stereo places you can go in Orange County. Not only is everything overprice but they do not even install your stuff right. After I went to get some monitors, speakers and a stereo I had to redo most of it myself!! What a waste of money and time!! read more

I dont really know these guys, I met Adolfo the store owner, very straightforward buisness man. These guys know electronics forsure. They are more than reasonable and fast. I would recommend them. read more

DON'T THINK I AM REPETITIVE!!.. THIS IS NOT JUST A REVIEW THAT WAS PLACED BY THE STORE OWNER. THIS IS MY REAL EXPERIENCE FROM FORCE ELECTRONICS AND THIS IS NO B.S.!! I can't find or think of any word that i should say about this store, other than good, great , awesome, the best, etc.etc.. This place is hands down 100% friendly, very helpful and understands the customers needs. Adolfo the owner, is very honest, reliable, lenient and never haggle you on selling his items. His son Albert is like his father, very smart, self reliant, and his work ethic is beyond his age. At the age of 20 finishes school and use his knowledge and degree to apply for their family business. His employees are well trained and knows what their selling and doing. Forget about Best Buy, Frys eletronics, or any other car audio or any other electronics. This place ROCKS!! Just have the patience and trust, they are the best.. I GUARANTEE！！！ read more

I went to get a stereo looked to get fixed and when they examined it they said they would fix it and it would be ready in a couple of days. A few weeks went by and I called to ask if I could pick up the stereo and they said yea it's ready( never reaching out to me/ I had to call them). After a few months had passed I went and picked up the stereo I couldn't do it sooner as I was busy and the shop isn't close to my house. The day before I went to pick up the stereo I called again to make sure it was all good and they said yea it was ready for me. When I got to the store it wasn't ready and they said it had a broken part they is not made anymore as it's an older head unit. I then asked why did you tell me it was ready on the phone and now here you are telling me it can not be fixed, he replied in a very aggressive tone saying "what do you want me to do about it they don't have any parts" these guys had my stereo for months and never called me when it was "ready" and when I called to check twice they said I was ready and then I go and basically waist my time going to pick up a head unit that was never fixed read more

Broke my center console piece while installing a single din... not careful with your stuff

HORRIBLE SERVICE!!!!!!!!!!!!! I kid you not, this business is the most frustrating place to be at. They have horrible customer service and they cannot do anything right for the LIFE OF THEM. I've had to go back multiple times because this is the only place my dealership can get invoices from, and they can't fix a simple issue. They mess up wiring, break compartments in my car, and I've found many new scratches every time I go! I seriously give them -5 stars. read more

I never leave reviews but this place is garbage. If you're on a budget I understand why u would come here, but if u have money to pay for quality , Don't come here you're better off paying extra for better quality and better service, service is terrible read more

Honest and amazing person !!! thanks man for giving me best idea not to change my headlights !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do not bring your car here unless you want to get a headache. The own charges before he starts working on your car. He says that's the way he does business. Before he started I asked for a refund. My daughter had found a different place that charge $230 cheaper. He said he would match the price. I waited for 5 hour. He was giving me a refund of $30. He thought he had charged me $380 when he changed $480. He didn't even know amount he charge me, I had my receipt. That's how I know he was taking advantage of me. On my way home I tried to turn on my heater and it did not work. Cold air would come out my knob would not turn to cold, the air wouldn't come out of the vents. So I spent another 2 hours waiting for it to be fixed. read more

If you need to solve any electrical work, or alarm replacement, or considering getting a new audio system, this is the right place. Great prices, awesome product and so many variety to choose from. Thank you Force Electronics, you always exceed my expectations! read more

Dropped off my car to get it fixed everyday would be told that it will be done by tomorrow. Then told them that I will come and pick it up if it's ready or not. It wasn't fixed and come to find out they drove my car for 400 miles over the past 10 days. Please save yourself and don't come here cause your car will be driven without your permission. read more

Found this place completely by accident when searching for a specific cable. They didnt end up having the cable but where so friendly and helpful that I returned the next day and had LEDs installed into my dash cluster. The guy that runs the shop is great! read more

My husband and I went in to get our car window control panel fixed. They did a great job and in a timely manner. Everyone there is super nice and the owner of the shop is very welcoming and friendly as well! Thank you for the great service ! read more

Negative star! This place is trash! Took my car for window tint. Took them 4 hours! I get home (20 min drive) tint already peeling off! I waited few days and ALL the windows had bubbles and were peeling off!! I took car back and the owner wanted to BS me tell me all these stories and that it was a bad roll and this never happened before blah blah and wanted me to come back and I told him No!! Long story short he had someone work on my car in Spanish they exchanged words which clearly meant replace 3 out of 7 windows ugh I think not!! The worker wanted to argue with me I told him I didn't pay to have bubbles in my tint. As I went to speak to the owner they moved my car from under the umbrella! I wanted to. Kick his ass!! So I made them replace ALL windows. He rushed the shit and I still have bubbles on this second set of tint! Save your time and money and go elsewhere! Not worth the hassle at all! This place is crooked and not worth your time!! I want my money back!!! read more

So I went in there for a simple stereo for my 93 Geo prizm just to get some sound in my car. First i call to make sure he has a kit to fit my car and if they still have the 79$ deal for a stereo with free installation. Over the phone Adolfo says "yeah we have it here no problem come in now and ill hook you up." (total was supposed to be 100 including 20 for the kit before his "Hook up"). When I show up and i'm about to pay they tell me the total is 120, so i talk to Adolfo and he "lowered" the price to 100 so i pay and they tell me its going to be 30 minutes. When I came back the job was done except one thing was missing... there was no kit in my car just the stereo in a huge whole. So I ask the guy who installed it and he says Adolfo never gave him a kit because they don't have any for my car, even though i had called before hand to make sure they have some for my car and the owner himself told me they did. When I went to talk to Adolfo about getting my money back he tells me that he did a "custom" job(piece of cardboard covering the whole) besides the fact that the custom job he's talking about was done by me and not the man who installed it. After talking to Adolfo for minutes and showing him that i'm not some idiot he can rip off he gave me 10 dollars back and followed by saying " ok now go on yelp and give me a good review" with a pat on the shoulder and his business cards. I was mad and frustrated and just wanted to get the hell out of there. By the way this was the fourth time I had come to this place for there cheap stereo deal and the last, he lost my business. This place has cheap deals but I would rather pay more at a professional place knowing i'm not supporting a business that rips people off. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS, NOT PROFESSIONAL AND MOST IMPORTANTLY NOT HONEST. read more

Great service , well communication , (flexible) with payment or willing to work with what you got . Fast service

This place sucks. Took my car to get LED lights and when they installed them they were flickering, took my car back to get it fixed and I ended up leaving with my old lights because apparently it needed a filter or something and they had to order it and that they'd call me when they have it.. I kept calling asking if they had it yet and nothing .. A month later I come back trying to return it and all of a sudden they have the piece .. Long story short.. I don't recommend this place at all... Not worth your time or money might as well get it done yourself .. Don't even give it a star but in order to post I must.. read more

Worst place to get anything. I went to get some fog lights installed and they messed up my paint really bad. I got hids that same day and they ended up not working a month later. The owner didn't want to replace them since he said im really delicate with my car but who isn't? I put alot of money into my car for some a holes to mess it up. Dont come here!! read more

Anything i ever need on my jeep jk unlimited i get it installed here. They do a great job and you get to watch their work. They do professional installations and solder all wires (no caps). The best part - adolfo's prices cant be beat! I see there is another Jeeper in here that gave him 1 star and had a terrible experience. I brought in my silver jeep jku for speakers, amp, sub, etc - everything except the head unit (wanted to keep it looking stock). Adolfo's guys did an amazing job on my rig. They also installed all the lighting for my jk (9 lights) with 5 lighted rocker switches in my car - all with their own fuses and relays. I couldnt have been more pleased with my set up and the clean work. Sucks that you didnt get that same service.... Thanks adolfo for all the work thus far. read more

Horrible. Came in because the radio face fell off (even tho they "fixed" it a week and a half ago. I'm writing this while I'm still here after 2 and a half hours of waiting for them to fix again. They have repaired about 5 other cars and the guy working on mine disappeared 2 hours ago and just came out to work on a different car while there are wires hanging out of mine. Not to mention the manager said it won't take as long if I bought a new one. What a scam. And there is a 12 year old working in the cars with them. Horrible business! read more

Overpriced products!! $200 for a amp that cost $87 at bestbuy.you can bargain so you feel like you get a good deal but you dont.do your research before buying from here. Guys who work here dont care about anything. Just to get to the stereo he pried open the front console without removing the screws and now i have broken clips and rattles. And half the screws are missing from trim panels.Adolfo will do anything to get your money. This is my last time here. You have been warned!! read more

Very unbeatable pricing, the crew and Adolfo know what their doing. I went to another place, Stereo Warehouse in Anaheim to be exact, and I was quoted 298$! For an install on a sub, amp and head unit, they must have thought I didn't know my stuff anyhow... I payed half of that here with warranty and no add ons as the others suggested. I didn't give them 5 stars because the place is very VERY CROWDED, almost feels like your inside a sweat shop, but hey when you want a deal you accommodate to minor details that will not affect the outcome. I will mos def recommend to family and friends all yelpers seeking a good deal on installs! read more

this is my second time here, the boss is great and the price is even better ! you first time i got tint. they got it done and i had no trouble. second time i came to install my car alarm and i got an amazing deal ! and they finished it right in time read more

This is by far, one of the best places I have had the pleasure of going to!! Adolfo, and his staff are absolutely wonderful!! They were able to diagnose, and fix my problem with integrity and professionalism, and for that I am eternally grateful!! I will send all my family, friends, and others who need help electronically their way!! Great job, guys!! read more

It's not in the nicest part of the neighborhood, nor are they very friendly, but they definitely get the work done!! I got sent here from a dealer, once because of the alarm on my car, and next because my car horn wasn't working. They installed a new alarm on my car and did additional work (the trunk was not electronic and required additional work to make it electronic) to make my car better. When I returned to get my horn fixed, they were able to fix it within an hour. It's not "customer friendly," but I have absolutely no complaints. My alarm and horn both work perfectly!! Thank you Adolfo and Force Electronics team! read more

Adolfo and his team are EXCELLENT!!! I am over the top pleased with the custom installation they did on my Sprinter van's sound system! It sounds AMAZING!!! If you are looking for a professional sound system at prices that are reasonable, look no further and make the short trip to Force Electronics, you will be very happy you did! read more

This place is very helpful and honest. No pressure at all and very quick installation. Adolfo the owner is very personable and he takes care of his customers. I could not be more satisfied. read more
