    Two things you have to have when buying a 911 Porsche. Low mileage and a trustworthy Mechanic like Vince. I only trust my girl with Vince because he knows how to treat her. His SERVICE is impeccable and his new Shop shows pride of ownership. Nobody touches her but me and Vince. AND she wants it that way. I'm on my 6th 911 so I know a little about the Brand. Porsche "there is no substitute!"

    Got a quote for some repairs for my Mini Cooper and paid the invoice. A couple of days later I got a call saying that their mechanic had broken something when he was fixing something else in my Mini. They said they would cover the cost and we ended the call. Btw, that call lasted all of 1 minute, per my call log. Two days later got another call from them saying that I owed them another $100.00 plus for the service and parts they previously said they would cover. Scammers. Almost 2 weeks pass from the last time that someone contacted, so I called the shop but there was no answer. I decided to text them and that's when they say that my car was ready. Nobody had call me though. My car was just there in their shop, ready. Obviously they had collected their money, so it was all the same to them. But I, the customer, was without a car for more than a month. Finally the owner, Vince, texts that he can deliver the car to me, tomorrow. I said ok. Then he texts back and says that he had offer to deliver today (the texts obviously show that he offer to deliver it tomorrow). He then says that he can pick me up tomorrow and bring me to the shop, to what I answer that that was not the offer. Then he offers to send me an uber (at this point I was like, what is going on here?!). At that point I don't even know what he is answering or texting. It was the most bizarre exchange that I've had with a place I was doing business with. All is can say is AVOID this shop at all costs. Horrible customer service. Overpriced repairs. My car was ready and nobody contacted me about it, and then the most bizarre text exchange happens with the owner of the shop. I include screenshots of the texts as proof.

    Let me just lead by saying, Mike at All American Auto Care saved me $150…read morewith just a couple e-Mails!!! Now, I have your attention, here's the rest of the story. I have a 2010 Mini Cooper (R56) Hatchback. For a while, the Check Engine icon has been lit up on the dash. Initialy, the dealership said it needed a new O2 Sensor & quoted about $700 to replace. The car was a bit slugish but, if I kept the revs up, it was fine. Over time, I noticed the engine had a harder time cranking over to start. Finaly, one day, my Cooper wouldn't start. I got a jump & decided to disable the Running Lights, radio, AC, & lights to come on when I unlock the car. Running the car in this mode turned the Check Engine icon off. I figured I should replace the battery on the car & called the dealer to replace the battery. They quoted $360 ($220 for the OEM replacement battery & 1.5 hours of labor) including reprogramming the ECM in the car. This is where a Man like Mike (the mechanic) comes in. Mike knew, the dealer was not being completely honest. By installing a different battery, I was able to avoid the so called reprogramming fee, (which is an urban legend) which saved me money!!! This is the benefit of having a mechanic like Mike who knows fact from fiction in the automotive world. NOTE: Don't always trust what the dealer says!!! Instead, trust Mike at All American Auto Care in Murrieta! Let me know how much money he saves you?

    Great service, they diagnosed the problem and got me out the same day and the staff was awesome…read more Most definitely will be back if I have any future problems.

    When I called this location my call went to a Call Center in Kentucky. I wanted to talk to the…read morestore to find out if the could get my car done today or not. The Call Center misled me into thinking they were at the store and they are NOT! Your Call Center should be more transparent about this. This is a MAJOR ISSUE. Your Call Center assured me that they "will get me in and out" with brakes, an oil change, and four new tires at 4 pm, and to "come right in", and "I have a 4 pm appt for you". LIES!! I walked into the store and they were slammed.. Simón said that there was no 4 pm appt for me, but he would take good care of me anyways. I raised my voice at him, "I just talked to you!" "You said 'in & out'". He calmly said he did not talk to me, but will take good care of me. I calmed myself. I was so angry. He said he would NEVER make a 4 pm appt for someone who needed brakes, 4 tires, and an oil change, when they close at 5 pm. It all made perfect sense. Simón offered to get my tires and oil change started, but offered to inspect my car to see if I even needed brakes. I agreed. It turned out my back brakes were at 6 mm and my fronts were 4 mm, so I still had time to change them. They squeezed me in even though they had cars they were trying to get out of the shop. EXCELLENT management by these guys to fix the predicament their "Call Center" had suckered me into. Evan's Tire & Service in Lemon Grove is a super place with super employees! They gave me a great price, and I was out of there at 5 pm. You need to fix your Call Center though- these stores are welcoming angry customers like me, because they are being lied to. Good job Simón & crew! I owe you one. The Call Center review would be 0 stars.
