    I have been using Monument Motors before they were Monument Motors I met them at Ford and followed them all over town. Well, to their current huge building anyway. I never am concerned that I might be lied to or cheated. I actually trust them more than I have trusted 3 of my 4 brothers. Not even honest to a fault. They are just totally honest. They won't promise they can fix something that needs attention from a different auto repair business. My 1998 Dodge Dakota truck got messed up driving back and forth at King of the Hammers last year.I knew there was a power steering fluid leak, but that is all I knew. So I kept adding fluid. Hey, I'm a girl. If it needs fluid, I'll give it fluid. KOH is coming up next week. I need to make sure that my truck can get me there and home each day. I drop off my truck last week sometime, and told Brandon what *I* a mere female thought was the problem, but what do I know? Yes! I was correct on the hose to the power steering fluid container needing to be replaced, Yes! What I didn't know because I am NOT a mechanic is that the major issue was the rack and pinion. It was leaking fluid and needed replacing. Ouch. it costs $$ to replace. I had saved my KOH money so I could get my truck checked out. I just said, "okay. replace it. I have KOH money I have been saving for the truck." I picked my truck up today. It was so nice to have it back again. Oh, and Brandon got my wiper fluid situation repaired. Danged rodents had chewed them all up. Take your vehicles to Monument Motors, I know there are good mechanics in the Morongo Basin. I do 't know f they are 'gooder' than Monument Motors, though. Guys and Gals, you can trust Brandon and Monument Motors to be honest with you about what your vehicle(s) need to have done. No upselling, fo throwing in a few odd and ends repairs or replacements. I've been trusting them since before forever, and I'd like you to trust them also.

    I was coming from LA and experienced a loud grinding noise. Justin from monument motors took care of me. They were honest, got my car serviced and up and running so I can get back to LA.

    GO HERE!!!! These guys are the best! Have you ever had such a good experience at an auto repair shop that you actually want to go back and hang out there??? Well that's how great they are! I can't make this stuff up. Here's the deal I was in Joshua Tree NP (1000 miles away from my home) and inside the park all my engine lights started going off, my truck suddenly was making hella noises and I was getting scarred. I yelped a repair shop and chose this one and drove my overheating engine there only for it to die right when I turned into their shop. They said they didn't have time but they'd move it out of the way for me, but then they popped the hood and somehow just started fixing it! I was either going to need a new hose or a new engine. Even if they couldn't fix it this review would be here. They are just genuine nice people trying they're best to take care of others and their vehicles. I wish they were in Tahoe because they'd be my go to repair shop! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so kind and making my truck breaking down an enjoyable experience, bonus for fixing her right up!

    See all

    Okay- so we only come out to Joshua Tree to go camping. Our axle in my Subaru went out right…read moreoutside of Yucca and immediately I was HORRIFIED because I thought we were about to get totally ripped off since I known they probably get a ton of out of towners. Boy was I wrong. Don and the crew went above and beyond. He got us a tow truck which was super affordable, and gave us a great price for the work I needed done. Unfortunately, Friday afternoon Don called us and let us know that the part wouldn't be in until Saturday and they were closed on weekends.. well. One of his crew members (totally forgot his name.. so sorry. But to my defense I was wearing a t-shirt that said "kicking ass and forgetting names"!) offered to come in on his day off to fix our axle!!!! He gave us a ride to our hotel in Yucca and even offered to pick us up Saturday morning- talk about amazing customer service. Bottom line these guys are amazing and don't hesitate to bring your vehicle to them, even if it is from out of town. Also- YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! Of course it is going to cost more at a shop than buying a part at autozone and doing it yourself, duh. THANK YOU EVERYONE AT JT AUTO!

    Drop my car first thing 8 o'clock. They took down all my comments about the car and said they would…read morecall if anything was of concerned. I did not get a call. I called around 2:30. They said apart was being transported so I waited again and went there by 4:30 dropped off my rental car, which was right there. Everything was great. I'm not sure who worked on my car but it's running great. My mileage is up between 35 and 40 mpg I do have a hybrid. All the value of what they do is so much better than the dealership because they're actually looking at the car each individual car. At the dealership, you don't have a choice they don't speak to you. They don't listen to your concerns about your vehicle they treat every car the same at the dealer. I'm so glad I found Ultimate Motors. I've been twice for an oil change a tuneup and a battery change all the service was done well. I appreciate it so much.

    First, im going to address a comment that mentioned that there is a long wait. There is a quote…read morewhich I have used in the past and the shop has displayed. Good, cheap and fast... pick 2. Second, I took my 2013 jeep wrangler with 82,000 miles to this shop for the dreaded lifter tick. I dropped off on a Wednesday afternoon ahead of my appointment that coming Monday. By Friday late morning, they called to tell me what needed to be done and the cost. By late Tuesday morning it was finished. It was there almost a week but it was completed in 2 days.. not counting the weekend. It wasn't cheap but they fixed what I needed. Btw... the cost was on par for what I had expected Great! I had originally taken to another local shop a couple weeks prior which they claimed they don't have the tools To fix the tick. But they had no peoblem taking 1500 to fix another issue. Highly recommended Ultimate motors!

    First off... ALWAYS READ PREVIOUS REVIEWS !!…read more This business if it hasnt already .." Needs to be shut down" !! I had Hector the reluctant salesman perform a rebuilt with my 4l60e trans out of my suburban. Firstly what a joke. I paid him almost $1600 when all was said and done. After installing heavy duty parts in the rebuild..it did ok around town. But tje first time out towing my boat...was 50 mIles outside town when i noticed the trans had been spraying fluid all down the side of my boat. I immediately called him from the side of the road.. He told me that a fluid change might cure the issue i was having .. He changed the fluid...at my expense for materials..gosh that was nice after the $1600 i had already spent...and not expecting issues !! Nonetheless.. i had the fluid changed. To my surprise... My tranny has never been the same and the vehicle has sat unuseable for the past several yrs about (7). I think in my case its about trusting someone else to do yet another rebuild and another expense upwards of another 2 grand+. I had other vehicles to drive..at the time ..but what a shame. Hector and his family of delinquent so called transmission rebuilding operations Should NOT be in this business....@ ALL Crooked crooks.. If someonerecommends them...ask them why they do.. because if you read the honest reviews..ITS ALL THEIR AS TO WHY YOU SHOULD RUN THE OTHER WAY. !! I DO NOT RECCOMEND THIS Rebuild shop.. !!!

    Our experience was quite similar to the others posted. WAY over-time stated, full of excuses…read more Hector is the "salesman," and his elderly father is the labor. Once it was done, we had to bring the truck back to him SEVERAL times as was not shifting properly by no means. We basically had to THREATEN him to get it done, finally (then sold the truck before it broke down again!). As his name just "happens" to come up often with others with experience, word has it that he uses USED parts, if parts replaced at all! Our opinion is that he is a THIEF!! We really have to wonder how he sleeps at night.......RUN, don't WALK, to ANY other shop!! Hint-hint Hector: it was a blue Suburban. But I know there have been SO MANY other poor suckers!
