He was the first one there @ 8:03, & he left there at 9:10. Over an hour for an oil change..REALLY? Called to speak to the owner, he just called me with every excuse in the book instead of addressing my frustration. That is BAD business! We won't be using them in the future! Thanks for being a jerk, Joe!

BEWARE!!! IT'S NOT MIKE HOWE'S ANY MORE!…read more I USED to take my car to Mike because he was the most honest mechanic I've ever known. Unfortunately, Mike Howe sold the place to a guy named Obeleo, who I learned is not as honest and upstanding as Mike Howe was. Here's what happened: I brought my car in because the engine light was on, the windshield washers stopped working and the battery was dead. I was charged $119.86 each to diagnose the three problems I brought it in for. I didn't have them fix the windshield washers. They replaced the battery and said that the new Battery took care of the Engine Light because the code was from low voltage. Total cost was $642.82. On the way home, the Engine Light is still on. I brought it back to "Mike Howe's Automotive" the next morning and complained. The new Owner, Obeleo tells me that he's going to have to tear into the thing to diagnose what the problem is. I then asked if the $119.86 I had already paid to diagnose the Engine Light would be applied to this job, he said no. He said that the Engine Code he's getting now is different than the engine code he got yesterday, so he wants me to pay the $119.86 again to diagnose the problem I already paid him to fix yesterday. The problem for Obeleo is, I have a FIXD auto diagnostic tool that shows a readout of the Engine Light error code history. The P1004 error code has been appearing since April. It shows that code also appeared when he ran the first diagnostic test. He's now claiming that code didn't appear until I took the car home. I have proof of the contrary. I will never bring my car to Mike Howe's Automotive again. It's sad these guys are dragging Mike Howe's name and reputation through the dirt.

If you have ever wanted to meet an honest mechanic, I know they are rare, you need to meet Corey…read moreand his amazing wife Julie. I can't believe that I've lived in Paso/Atascadero since 2012 and it took our family this long to find them. Both Julie and Corey (not sure on spelling) are sincere, reasonably priced and just easy going people. A local tire shop was changing my oil recently and said that I needed to replace my valve cover gasket because it was leaking AND they also said we needed to replace the drive belt. I thanked them for their notification and asked them to please just change the oil. I then contacted Julie at SMELTZER and she was able to schedule me in to see her hubby for a second opinion. My husband and I took our car to have Corey look at it. He looked at the engine and found nothing wrong with it. I was shocked by two things, shocked by his honesty when most other mechanics would tell you what best benefits their pocket books- but I was more shocked that a local tire shop in Paso Robles that we have trusted for many many years would try to take advantage of their customers like that. They have lost a customer and SMELTZER has earned a customer for life. Thank you for being a good human and not seeing people as dollar signs Mr & Mrs Smeltzer. I am also a local small business owner and I believe in earning my $$ honestly and with integrity. It's good to know that integrity still exists in this small town, thank you!

Said it was something to do with my transmission sensor and he replaced it. He had to keep it two extra days. Which on the first day of keeping it he never even informed me that he would need to keep it another night. Long story short the next day the I drove it and the sensor was already back! Not only that but the car is acting up even worse and the engine is revving really high in park. Down shifting really hard when coming to a stop. Honestly think he did something to make it worse so I can keep coming back to spend money. I'm so disappointed my baby is due in 20 days just wanted my car to be safe before she got here. Now I have more issues on my hand and more money to spend. What a headache and a waste of money. Also the wife Connie has had attitude several times on the phone for no reason. She also got pen marks all over my dash by the key ignition, and never told me about it. Do NOT use them. Take your money and car somewhere else.
