    I honestly cannot say enough good things about these guys! They are so good, it pains me to share a review for them due to their already limited availability lol but they deserve the recognition because I KNOW you know how hard it is to find a trustworthy and honest mechanic! You ever get that feeling when you go to a mechanic that they were not telling you everything, trying to up sell you and/or trying to get you to pay for repairs you don't need? Well you'll NEVER feel like that here! Have you ever had a mechanic that took the time to make a YouTube video to literally show you their findings and explain in layman's terms what's up? Well, that's what they did for me and this blew my mind. Talk about next level customer service!

    8/30/24. My coworker highly recommended Mobotech when my Dodge Durango overheated on my way to work. So I checked out Mobotech Auto on Yelp, and it had a rating of 4.9!!! So I called, and Vic answered, and initially he didn't have any room, I was a little disappointed. I needed my SUV repaired because it was my only means of transportation. Then he said to call back at 6 pm, and hopefully, some cars will be picked up, and there should be some room. I called back and he had room for me! So I called roadside assistance. Long story short, the tow truck didn't show, so I called Vic, and he said no problem, tow it in tomorrow after 10 am. So I got it towed into the shop. Vic greeted me, and I explained what happened, and he basically told me he got it and will text me with updates. Not even 30 minutes later, I got a text with what needed to be done (with a video!) and a printed estimate. Then they discovered something else needed repairing and sent me pictures and videos and an updated estimate. I gave the approval, and it was done by the same day I dropped it off! I didn't pick it up till the next day because I couldn't get a ride to the shop. So after work, I picked up my Durango. Talked story with Vic for a bit and was on my way, a Happy and Satisfied customer. Vic just made things work out. I appreciated the frequent updates with pictures and videos and a screenshot of the estimate. Friendly and professional. He paid attention to details. He even had my SUV running with the air conditioner on, so it would be nice and cool when I got in. Drove home and the ride felt like it was a brand new car. He just earned a loyal customer and my referrals. MAHALO VIC AND CREW!!!

    If you're looking for an honest, trustworthy and reliable auto repair shop, look no further than MOBOTECH ALL AUTO SERVICE! I was fortunate to be referred to Vic, the owner, from a very good friend. He has been their family mechanic for years & I take her recommendations very seriously. I'm glad I did. I refer everyone and anyone with auto repair needs to this place. They are TOO GOOD TO GATEKEEP!!! My entire family brings their cars here for all auto repair needs! You can be sure Vic will be honest with you on what he can, and cannot do as older models or more specific issues may need to go back to the actual dealer! That's what I love about him... He's not gonna charge you for something that he knows he can't do, or shouldn't be touching! Top notch customer service... he even sends pictures and videos of the problem, as well as the solution! I never worry that he's gonna tell me like it is. As if I didn't give you enough reasons to bring your car here, one of my favorite reasons is because they open later in the morning (9:00 AM) and they close between 8:00 - 9:00 PM.

    Since your reply is filled with inaccuracies, let me tell what actually happened…read more I brought my car in for a steering issue on my Lexus. I agree that I did take it to a friend's shop first and he checked into the issue. He wasn't able to help because he was going out of town. When I initially contacted Neue Auto, I was told that you fixed all kinds of steering systems. My Lexus has an electronic control unit for the power steering, not a hydraulic one, like most cars. I asked specifically if this is something that you were able to do...when I initially called and when I dropped the car off. That was a SPECIFIC question. Both times I was assured that you were familiar. A whole day went by and no callback. I was told that it would take a few hours to investigate the issue and after repeatedly calling for an update, I was told that at 5pm my car was still being worked on. No callback by 6p so I DROVE down there in my other car only to find the shop locked up. It was the weekend and I did without my car and without any update. I was cool about it and Alvin finally contacted me after I left a message on Monday morning. I was NOT informed that you would not be able to perform the "calibration and [potential] programming." If this was the case and you didn't have the tools to complete the job, why in the world wouldn't I take it straight to Lexus? Let me be clear...you had the car for 3 weeks...THREE Weeks and nothing was being done. Alvin kept telling me he was trying to get in contact with someone at Lexus and get the inside on how to fix it. I got my car out of there because Alvin said you were waiting on someone trying to get a "workaround" for the programming? I have text messages and voicemails about this. Needless to say, the car was unfixed. When I picked up my car, it was FILTHY...there was dirt IN my car and the whole car was dirty. My car is my baby and it has never seen a day that it was that dirty. Alvin pulled the car out and I got in and drove 1/2 a mile before realizing the needle on the gas tank was BELOW "E." I also noticed this huge gash in my dash. That was NOT there before. I went straight to the gas station and had to fill my tank and I called Alvin about the gash. He flat out denied it and went on the defensive. I just threw my hands up and didn't argue. AT NO TIME DID I ASK for any sort of compensation. NONE! I asked for acknowledgement but he just denied it right off. I have the text of that too. I buy local to support, but given your reply, without even having a conversation with me throughout this whole 3 week ordeal, it's clear you have blind loyalty to your workers that allows you to create this false narrative often a customer who just plunked down $2600 for NOTHING. My car was the SAME as when I drove it in. AUWE!! Sidenote: Took my car in to Lexus the following Monday and it was done in 3 days. When I got my car from Neue, I asked for notes on what was done and what else needed to be done. I also asked if they could give me their Lexus contact so that that person could provide any information to the repairman at Lexus. When I picked up my car, the advisor said that the part changed by Neue was unlikely to have been necessary at all. This was a HUGE, EXPENSIVE lesson learned to do my due diligence in competency!

My other half and I talked business with the owner's daughter Shay Nakamura about the situation and asked certain questions and she couldn't give any feedback to the situation at hand. She tried to give me a discount, but I don't think it was enough, considering I know for a fact they are charging me 3-4x the actual cost for the parts and then will eventually get more money back because of the cores. I text the number they text me with explaining my situation and there were no response. 2 phone numbers they text me from I left a text message, no response. That right there shows me that that they have poor communication skills. Communication was done with text. To be honest, I prefer real conversation with a person/company. I believe that they either did a poor job 2 and a half years ago or the quality of parts they used suck!! I got ripped off the first time and they tried to do that again the second time around. NEVER again will I do business with them!!

James, Justin, and Erin seem to work well together and treat each other with respect and this business seems to run pretty smooth. I just get a good feeling of trust when I go see them. They are in the business to help people not rip you off. But parking and dropping off your car can be a slight challenge. Just be patient the team is great about helping you to drop your car. Do NOT park and leave your car in front of their neighbors. 5 stars would recommend to all my friends and family!!!
