I've always been sketched out about taking my car to places that were not pep boys or sears auto (when it was around) and I was always unhappy because the ridiculous prices and the bad service. I gave this place a shot for the first time last year to fix my bearings, and I was I happy with them. For the same problem pepboys wanted to charge me double. Employees here are professional, patient and understanding, and more importantly they actually know what they are doing. Got a problem under my hood recently, and I didn't bother shopping around, brought it straight here to get it fixed. I've recommended this place to friends and family, and will keep on coming for any car issues I have in the future read more

I've had a deeply disappointing experience with Montclair Auto Repair. Over the course of one month, my check engine light came on three separate times. The first time, they replaced a spark plug, costing me about $200. Two weeks later, the light returned. This time a $687 repair for a completely different issue. Less than two weeks after that, the light came on again. On my third visit, even though their posted opening time is 9 a.m., the technician, Randy, didn't actually show up until after 9:08. He was rude, didn't greet me, and dismissed my concerns instead of offering any apology or empathy. He handed me a paper with another new code and quoted labor costs of $160, with no parts even required. Despite their supposed warranty, I've had to return repeatedly. Each time, a new code, a new cost, and dismissive treatment. Randy even remarked that my car is old and implied I should expect ongoing issues. Yet this doesn't excuse poor service. If I could give zero stars, I would. I can't recommend this shop to anyone looking for accountability or respect. read more

Requested service for my honda hrv, Randy did an amazing job from start to finish. My honda alerted me it was time for b123 and was running a bit rough. Randy quoted me a goid price and did an awesome job. I will be returning. This is my first time get my car serviced outside the dealer and will definitely reachout to randy moving forward with my car service needs. Thanks Randy for the superb service and being available Friday of Memorial weekend. read more

Great people definitely not trying to rip you off. Tell you exactly what you need and help you find the least expensive options. I take all my vehicles there service is fantastic. The people there are very knowledgeable and definitely know what they're doing. read more

Randy is awesome! This place is honest, they do great work and their prices are reasonable.

I had a great experience with this shop, the pricing was fair the the service was excellent

I inquired about a service and they directed and assisted me with making sure I checked warranty first. Randy has even gotten in contact with them for me to ensure everything goes smooth . This shows how they put their customers first over x amount of dollars. And that is what an honest business does. I will be taking all my vehicles with them for any future needs. This is definitely the place you want to go to as they value their customers! Highly professional, knowledgeable and excellent prices. read more

Randy was fast and efficient. All you can ever want from a mechanic. Thank you very much appreciated.

Brought my car here last time for my breaks and they did an amazing job, did not take too long to have them done , breaks have been amazing since . I'm back here for an other issue with my car and I know it's in great hands read more

One of the only mechanics that I trust in the years of driving. They are honest and very nice people! 10/10 would recommend them for their honesty, and trustworthiness read more

Started off with a conversation on Yelp quoting out brake pads and rotors if I supplied both quoted $165.00 for installation. Appointment was scheduled in advance. Arrived a hour early to be told they only quoted the pads that the person doing the yelp quotes does not communicate with the shop. Received an onsite quote for $265.00 I drove a hour so upset and feeling deceived I was reassured by Randy he would do the repair and that it was a good price he was nice and apologetic so against my better judgement I agreed. My appointment was at 11:00 am and I arrived at 10:00 he said it would take 2 hours. Around 1:30 pm I called and checked status he said he would just now get started on my car other cars had come in. What? I had an appointment why would you take other cars after I dropped mine for a "appointment". Called back at 4:00 pm to be told it wasn't done yet needed to be drove around. At 4:30 pm I arrived to pick up my car and was told the credit card machine didn't work and I needed to Zelle him directly. After this small project turned into a entire day affair I was over it and wanted to get on the road with it being the day before to 4th so I agreed and got all his contact information. When I left and got on the freeway my car started squeaking so loud when I hit the brakes I called and texted Randy right away no reply. I called and wrote this business on Yelp and still not reply. It's still squeezing horribly loud days later and no responses from the shop or him. Something extremely shady is going on with this business avoid at all costs. I have given them days to reach out to me and still nothing. This is not okay to scam people like this! Do not trust this place at all read more

Worst shop ever. Completely outdated equipment, no waiting room and cluttered. The owner is extremely rude and smells of alcohol. I would take my ride to any other shop surrounding this place before going back to that hole read more

I've been so impressed with the workmanship and honesty I've had from Montclair Auto. Randy and team have a good turnaround and fair prices. read more

Great service and honesty. Recommend to everyone come check it out if you are in the area and need to get your car checked or fixed come check it out read more

Very disappointing i that I took my car in for an oil change and to check the AC which I was told what is not working even know it turned on before I dropped it off. I think it needs some Freon or maybe recharging by and just to conclude the whole compressor needed to be replaced for $1600 because it won't turn on when it clearly does. Unfortunately as a woman, this happens often and I think for myself I know for sure he is upselling me the service because I know some things about cars and how much parts and labor cost so if you try to and charge a whole of $800 profit is insane so women to wear as the shop they will try to overcharge you read more

Thanks to Randy for helping with my wife's brakes with a great price. See you next time.

Randy was so helpful! He helped me out with two of my cars and was super honest about what they were able to do for me. They're reasonable when it comes to pricing and got my car back quick! Not going to any other place to have my car fixed. read more

I've brought my car here twice and they've always been able to take care of me. Service and staff are great!

Great service everytime, guys are super kind and informative work is always great and priced fairly

Montclair Auto Repair - My car - Auto Repair Near Me - Montclair, California

I took in my Nissan Sentra to get inspected! Randy is an honest person who really cares! His master mechanics inspected my car and took pictures of the parts that were bad and had to be replaced! After that he called me and explained to me the pricing and the most important parts to replace first. His pricing is fair and way less then what the dealer wanted to charge me. It's hard to find an honest good mechanic! I recommend this shop to everyone who needs car repair. I'm glad I found my mechanic shop for future auto repairs. Thank you Montclair auto repair shop!! read more

This place has always given me good service and very fair prices. I would recommend it to anyone.

These guys are amazing in their willingness to provide good service, they are truly out to support their clientele and provide you with what you need at An appropriate rate. Good team of guys in a small shop with great service. Highly recommend. read more

I have used Montclair Auto for well over two years. The most important things are honesty, trust, and reliability. If you come in for anything, they will let you know whether you need it or not. They use the original parts for your car/truck/suv, and their quality of work and knowledge is A1. ***** I give them 5 Stars read more

I requested quotes through Yelp and received a response from this "business". I called them and confirmed prices and set an appointment with this person who answered. I show up to the location at the appointment time. There was no one at the front desk and it appeared only one person was working. I wait for 5 minutes and finally I get this person's attention. He asks me "Can I help you?". I say, "Yeah, I know you're busy, but I've been waiting 5 minutes and I'm here for my appointment. " He asks " Who did you make the appointment with?" I told him I didn't remember the name. He replied, "Then you didn't make an appointment. " I tell him I have messages thru Yelp. He said, "I'm not Yelp." Funny, for a "business" (debatable from this interaction) that has a sign at the desk asking for "honest" reviews to be left on Yelp for 10% discount. It is convenient when you want bribed reviews but when it is used to confront your bad service, "I'm not Yelp". No $hit. What YOU are, is a "business" going via the sewer. He says everything is recorded. I hope that it is. See your failure to get business even when they make an appointment to give it to you. Went down the street and got better service, and I didn't have to even make an appointment. read more

Montclair Auto Repair - I talked to no one for 1 minute 36 seconds. Made an imaginary appointment with a ghost. - Auto Repair Near Me - Montclair, California

Brought my car here after my dealership quoted me an insane amount for a specific repair and also failed to give me a proper diagnostic. This shop took beyond good care of me & my car. The owner and employees make sure to give you the best prices but also take the time to explain everything to you! Would recommend for any services! They are extremely helpful and professional! read more

I received a oil change and it was quick and affordable. Received great service as well! Also a VERY CLEAN SHOP. Would definitely recommend!

Very quick appointment and service. Great price compared to several other auto service companies I checked with. Quality repair.

Initially found out about this place due to their coupon on the Stater bro's receipt for an oil change and glad that I did. Came in for my second oil change today and the guy at the front desk made sure that I was in and out on time for my shift at work. I'm used to dealing with sketchy auto places that always say I need something replaced once they see my car, but not here. Just some nice guys that provide honest and great service. Glad to have found my place for all my auto needs. read more

The customer service I received at this auto repair shop was phenomenal. Randy's communication and professionalism was great.

You will not regret it! read more

Alternator needed to be replaced and found a leaky valve dripping oil. Also notified me it was best to do timing belt. All done.

Ever since the first phone call, I knew that this was going to be the place to take my car to. RANDY was great in answering my questions. I took in my car on Monday morning, within hours I got a call back and was given all the details for the car. I'm so glad that I came here. I'VE been to different mechanics and nothing has been compared to this auto shop. If anyone needs their car fix take it here. Highly recommend read more
