Despite already working on a full garage they were able to diagnose and give me an estimate quickly. They ordered a radiator that day and it was in there within the hour. As soon as I give the green light they immediately go to work. I got same day service at an amazing price and quality honest work. I will 1000% be coming back to River with my cars, and I absolutely recommend them to anyone in the area as someone's who's dealt with a lot of different shops these guys set themselves apart for real.

Brad is a master mechanic and really knows his stuff. I really like that this is a family-owned and operated business. They don't make up things that you don't actually need to have done. They don't pressure you to do anything. I really dislike being misled by automechanics and I never have to worry about that happening and Thieman's Fleet Auto Repair. I couldn't say enough nice things about this business. They really are top notch! I wouldn't go anywhere else in Bakersfield!

I was told exactly where to order this part, given the name of the company and did directly as instructed $1,700.00 later. Once parts came in they were not needed and now I am will the fixed income of having parts that were not needed, the business should foot the bill for the parts they instructed me to order. DO NOT do business with this Mechanic or shop.

I have nothing good to say about this automotive repair shop. I drove to it, Friday afternoon, a…read moreweek ago, to inquire about doing a 100,000 mile maintenance on my GMC 2016 pick up--showing Joe a list with items recommended. Joe, the owner, told me that they could, but if I could call on Monday morning to make an apt, which I did. We agreed on Thursday as the day to work on it. I took it over at 6:45 am and left him the keys. At 4:15 pm, I called to see what time I should pick it up. Joe had already left. The man I was speaking too did not initially know what I was talking about and then told me that no one had worked on my pickup. I called at 6:15 am the next morning, last Friday to request to get my keys as I already had plans to go out of town. Picking up the keys, Joe then told me that they did not do the type of maintenance listed on the sheet. What poor customer service.

I was told it would be several days of work and that it would take at least 3 days for the parts to come in. Naturally, I was surprised as to how my car could be ready for pick up just a day and a half later. That trip to Precision was 3,400 (mostly labor costs) but I was hopeful the issue had been fixed, despite being confused as to how it could possibly be ready so quickly. 5 days later, the same coolant light came back on. The man that answers and works the front desk is gifted when it comes to talking in circles. He basically said "well, it's a car. Who knows why the light is back on. Bring it back." So I did. This trip was $300 for them to "fix" whatever they missed 5 days before. I was supposed to feel grateful that they didn't charge me for diagnostics on this second visit. One month later, the same light is back on. Major leak still in my coolant system. Car is undrivable. I had my car towed to bmw this morning. I should have just done that in the first place. This business isn't what it used to be and they clearly no longer have a mechanic that is familiar with bmws. After going here for 15 years, myself, family and friends that drive European cars will never return. I've contacted the BBB and my attorney in regards to getting my 3700 back.
