    Took my car for an estimate to a couple of mechanics in the area. His price was half the other 2! and did a great job. Highly recommended

    Only accepts debit cards and charges a fee to do so - even for gas. Avoid this place if you can.

    Incredibly responsive, honest, transparent, and trustworthy people and service!…read more Whether it's for an oil change or a major service, the team here gets the job done with speed, efficiency, and high quality. They also call promptly to provide updates and are up front about their recommendations. I just had my 90k service completed and they provided a clear breakdown of what's highly recommended to fix and why vs. others that need monitoring. Love that they sent the report via text so I could take some time to review and discuss with my husband. I also think the price is fair (checked with AI and it always fits the range for the service). Special thanks to Scott for staying late so I could pick my car up before the weekend! Appreciate you!! Highly recommend. P.S. location is so convenient, too. Got a car wash right next door (excellent btw), a tire shop on the other side (for those darn nails), and Costco gas down the street!

    I highly recommend AutoTech in San Ramon for anyone looking for car repair. Lauren answered my call…read morewhen I reached out and kindly offered to take a look at my car first to estimate the diagnostic cost. They scanned my 2010 Prius car at no charge and identified the issues. There would only be a fee if further diagnosis or repairs were needed. The initial scan was very helpful and allowed me to contact the battery company for my Prius battery pack, which is still under warranty. AutoTech is a great place to get an estimate, and Lauren is very responsive. I had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend this shop as an alternative to dealership service.

    Although I appreciate that they didn't charge a diagnostic fee, I'm really disappointed with my…read moreexperience. I brought my car in due to an intermittent gear slipping issue, which I had already traced to a solenoid problem--a very common issue with my Pontiac G6. The symptoms only occurred twice, very briefly. My check engine light came on both times but turned off on its own. I was still able to drive the car on the freeway at full speed with no issues. The problem only showed up during city stop-and-go traffic. I specifically asked if they could just replace the solenoid, and was told no. Instead, I was told I "only had gears 1 and 2" and that I'd need a $4,800 transmission rebuild--which is objectively false, as I literally drove the car 70+ mph on the freeway both before and after leaving the shop. My engine light was off before coming to the shop, turned on once at the shop, then turned back off shortly after leaving. There is no way my car had only gears 1 & 2 I know what that feels like as it happened twice briefly. So to say this to me is insane. Mind you wouldn't have been able to go more than 25 with out the car struggling they must have assumed I don't know a thing about cars. Possibly because I'm a woman and I went alone. They also claimed the solenoid was too difficult to access without replacing the computer and warned me about my car's mileage, as if that meant it wasn't worth fixing. But then, on my way out, they admitted it's a "really great car" and "this is the only issue." It felt manipulative. I decided to trust my gut, went to a different shop, and had the solenoid replaced--and now my car runs perfectly fine. No rebuild needed. If I hadn't known what I was talking about, they would've gladly let me spend thousands on a completely unnecessary repair. Trust yourself. Do your research. Don't let fear-based upselling push you into something you don't need. Also from reading the reviews it sounds like the routinely tell their customers they need a rebuild and successfully do the rebuild. (more than likely something very easily replaceable) However a good transmission shop doesn't just rebuild, they properly and honestly diagnose and repair. He also tried selling me cars on the way out. Notice how he hasn't replied to this yelp review and also told me he feels bad for me in the text? Very unprofessional I don't need your pitty I needed honesty which I didn't get from this shop. He also told me don't buy a used car you can't guarantee you won't have problems it's best if you fix this one with us. Also told me not to go to another shop because id want a local shop lol

    I had an outstanding service and experience at Danville Auto Center. Oscar is the reason I came…read morehere, I actually followed him from another location because I trust his work and his integrity. They diagnosed my 21 year old Toyota Camry with over 300,000 miles and provided a complete, detailed list of everything that needed attention. What I appreciated most was that Oscar took the time to narrow it down to what was truly necessary to make the car safe, as if it were his own vehicle. No pressure, no upselling, just honest guidance. The estimate was clear and detailed, and the pricing was very competitive. The customer service was exceptional from start to finish. More than anything, DAC earned my trust, which is rare in this industry.... Why I follow Oscar!!! If you're looking for transparency, fair pricing, and people who genuinely care, this is the place to go. THANK YOU Oscar and team!!!

    AVOID DANVILLE AUTO CENTER AT ALL COSTS…read more I don't usually leave reviews, but what happened here was so outrageous that people deserve to know. My girlfriend brought her car here after it died while parking. She told them up front it was likely the battery (which they had just replaced), the alternator, or a loose wire. Pretty straightforward, right? Wrong. From there, it was a nightmare: * They refused to return her calls. She was the actual owner of the car, yet they completely ignored her and would only speak to me. * They dragged the repair out over three full days while dodging updates. * When they finally claimed it was just a loose wire, they quoted us over $500, apparently because they charge $250/hr just to "diagnose." * When we picked the car up, the passenger side window no longer worked, even though it was fine before. And the worst part? When we confronted Shawn (the owner) about all of this, he laughed in our faces, interrupted us, and treated us like we were the problem. When my girlfriend left, they actually called her a "f**ing b****." I confronted Shawn, and he admitted it--but said he was talking about her and not me. As if that somehow makes it okay. This wasn't just bad service. This was open disrespect. The way they dismissed and insulted my girlfriend made it clear they were trying to take advantage of her because she's a woman. If you value your money, your car, or even just basic human decency, stay far, far away from Danville Auto Center.
