They called me almost everyday to update me on the process, any costs, or timing concerns. Gino handles the front and was extremely personable, helpful, and honest throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly and never made me feel pressured into unnecessary repairs. Jose did the actual work on my car and did a fantastic job -- my Fiat is running great! My ac was causing lots of issues and has been running cold for a week now! I am always hesitant to have just anyone work and the Fiat but he clearly knew the car and specific details. It's really refreshing to find a shop that feels trustworthy, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about their customers. I would absolutely recommend Gino and Jose, especially to anyone looking for someone comfortable working on European cars. I'll definitely be coming back!

I took my vehicle to Becker Tire now Stress Free Auto Care expecting routine, professional service…read more Instead, I experienced carelessness that led to serious damage and a complete refusal to take responsibility. I dropped my truck off on Saturday, March 14th at 9:00 AM. Around 2:30 PM, I received a call that the four tires I requested to have replaced was ready for pick up. After paying $1,061.57 for the tires and labor, I drove off the lot only for my truck to begin violently shaking, forcing me to pull over immediately. I contacted my husband, who came to assist, but the truck was undrivable. I returned to Stress Free Auto Care and explained the situation. At that point, my husband was already waiting for a tow truck. Instead of addressing the issue, we were told they were closing and would not inspect the vehicle until Monday. I could hear the mechanic complaining that he was tired and didn't want to wait around when the manager went to speak to him. I specifically asked if anyone actually drove my truck to test it and was told no they did not road test it. Obviously. Due to the poor customer service and urgency of the situation, we had the truck towed to Toyota of Orange. After inspection, we were informed that the lug nuts had been grossly over-tightened, three were broken and one was missing entirely. This was not a minor mistake; it caused significant damage to the wheel components and created a serious safety hazard. Proper torque is a basic standard that any competent shop should follow, yet it was clearly ignored. No one from Stress Free Auto Care contacted us at any point the following week. After Toyota kept the truck for a week and a half, we were left with a repair bill of $3,332.03. My husband sent a certified letter to Stress Free Auto Care, including documentation of the damages and requesting reimbursement. The manager eventually responded, offering to reimburse only the cost of the tires without acknowledging the additional damages or expenses incurred. As a result, we have filed a lawsuit to recover our losses. I strongly caution anyone to use Stress Free and to choose a business that values safety, accountability, and professional standards.

When I got here, Tom was my point of contact. I explained to him that I needed a pre-purchase inspection, and he was able to get on it right away. While Tom's team was working on that, I waited in their office. The office was air conditioned, with very comfy seating, and a clean restroom. There was also a water cooler, which I appreciated. The whole inspection took less than 45 minutes, and I was glad to hear that the car was good for purchase. I paid Tom with my card, and I was on my way to finish the purchase. This is a well-run mechanic shop, and Tom is friendly and professional. I recommend them.

My car wouldn't start because the battery was drained, so I had it towed to a shop that advertised…read moreelectrical repair. After explaining the issue, I was told they would diagnose the problem and call me with their findings. A few hours later, I called for an update and was told they had found a parasitic battery drain and needed to run additional tests. Later that day, they called back and said the problem was simply a faulty battery and that replacing it would solve the issue. I approved the repair, which ended up costing about $430 for the battery. After picking up the car, I immediately noticed that some of the electronics were not working correctly and it still felt like the battery was being drained. Because the original diagnosis didn't seem to match the symptoms, I took the vehicle to Al's Electric Repair in Anaheim, a shop that had successfully fixed an electrical issue on another vehicle of mine. Al's quickly identified a parasitic drain caused by a camera installed inside the cabin. Once they repaired the drain, the electrical issues disappeared and the car has been running properly ever since. What concerns me is that the first shop initially told me they had found a parasitic drain, but later concluded that the battery was the only problem. Whether the battery needed replacement or not, the actual drain remained and was causing the issues I brought the car in for. Based on my experience, Al's Electric Repair accurately diagnosed and repaired the problem, and they have now successfully resolved electrical issues on two of my vehicles.

The nearest exit dumped me in one of those south O.C. neighborhoods where there's nothing but apartment community mega-plexes for blocks and blocks -- i.e., no gas station for at least 5 miles and no mechanic for at least 10. I first called AAA, only to find out that my 25-year membership was cancelled in error less than 2 weeks ago (WTF), and there would be a $150 penalty for using it within 24 hours of reinstatement (double WTF). Reached out to five different mobile mechanics; two of them got back to me, and luckily, Johnny was one of them. He responded right away with a fair quote and met me within the hour. Assessed the damage to the plate ('twas cooked, RIP ), removed it in less than 5 minutes, and sent me on my way. He even texted me links to some good deals on a new plate. So grateful Johnny came up in my Google search!

Honesty is pretty high up there on the list of qualities a mechanic should have. It's so easy to get taken advantage of if you don't know much about cars. Thankfully I do know a bit about cars and so I can always detect when a mechanic is not doing work on the up and up. Definitely not the case with citywide. They are well above board just like the rest of their reviews point out. I've already sent my Mom there and she was very impressed with the service as well. A big thanks to Bruce and his team for always a job well done. If you're trying to find a new mechanic and you're on the fence, you can't go wrong with Citywide.
