They incorrectly installed a part on my suspension twice. Had to go back multiple times for them to correct it. They never got it right. I even found loose hardware all over. They said they left it loose to make it easier for the guys at the alignment shop. Very concerning. Alignment shop guys ended up feeling sorry for me and reinstalled all the parts correctly. Price was about the same I got quoted elsewhere, just quality and attention to detail was not ideal at all.

He said he didn't know I needed to find out if someone was in there. So I once again walked to the bathroom and it was locked. He said did you try to open it? We were confused. Of course we tried. He said next time we need to ask him to use the restroom. Again confusion because that's exactly what we had been doing.

Cars can enter from any direction since it's on a corner lot, so it's nice to be able to pull up from any side and not have to do strange maneuvers to get to a pump.

That, paired with the fact that the gas is not astronomical makes this a good place to stop when you're running low after doing a road trip to Santa Barbara. The gas station only has about 4 pumps, and one of them is consistently out of service but at least the other three are fairly fast. I really have trouble waiting for really slow pumps and often don't fill up all the way since it takes like 10 minutes to do 10 gallons or something.

Mid-July, we were on our way up to Solvang for a couple days of wine tasting when our 2012 Kia…read moreOptima started bucking severely and the engine and oil warning lights came on. We were lucky to be just outside of town and managed to limp the car into Jim's Service Center. I checked the oil and it was really low, so I went inside to buy a couple quarts. Luis stepped forward and assisted me with the oil, even putting it into the car's engine, so I didn't have to get dirty doing it myself. Unfortunately, the engine warning light stayed on, so we left the car onsite so John (mechanic) could check it out the next day. John called us the next afternoon and said that he looked at it, but they didn't have the correct analysis equipment to read our Kia's engine malfunction code. He suggested a couple other shops in town. Unfortunately, they were booked up for several weeks. We made arrangements to have the car towed down to the Kia dealership in Ventura (see review for Kirby Kia of Ventura, CA). Jim's allowed us to leave the car there until the next afternoon when the tow service was available. John was very upfront and honest. Didn't even charge us for the time it took him to do the initial analysis to find out what the issue was. You always hear about auto mechanic shops taking advantage of people. I just can't express how impressed I am with the professionalism, courtesy, and honesty of the Service Center's team. I only wish they were in my neighborhood, so if I need any future assistance with our vehicles, they'd be there to help.
