I had a great experience getting my vehicle's smog check done here. The service was fast and efficient, and the price was a great value. The waiting area was clean and well organized, also complementary COFFEE which I really appreciated. The front desk staff were very polite and sweet, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend them! read more

They have great pricing they do take a little bit longer than jiffy lube in town but just be patient and you will definitely get it done properly and for less money. read more

We took our car in for smog test. The car is a 2001 and they tried everything to get it to pass but they could not. They gave it 200% effort and we appreciate all that they did. The girl at the desk, Savannah, was so kind and went out of her way to help us.we would recommend this company for your needs read more

Manny is an excellent mechanic. He explains things clearly and thoroughly and is fair with pricing. This is the kind of service I value.

Very helpful and efficient. Patient with me as I am not a car person. I would highly recommend service there.

Hip! Hip! Hooray! Outstanding customer service from begining to end. I was nervous using a mechanic in town since moving here and not knowing about quality or reputation of businesses etc. I took a chance based om other Yelpers! Also, it was for my older model beloved Honda that I tend to baby. I needed an actuator replaced in the door and they got it done for a fair price and a good time frame. The initial call and finding the right part to updates along the way...fantastic. I would definitely recommend for your auto needs! read more

Took my sons car here to get it looked over due to some issues. The person at the front Susana was very welcoming and knowledgeable. Susana kept me updated on my car the whole time. The work performed was excellent and was done quickly. Would definitely recommend P & N Garage. Great customer service, and excellent work. read more

P&N went extremely way above & beyond to assist me and my family. Returning from vacation Central California back to Northern Arizona, our car broke down. Susannah & staff take customer service to the next level. Thank you so much for everything. My Charger is back home! read more

Two weeks ago I had my car in for a transmission flush, new spark plugs and oil change. Next day the vehicle was running terribly, it's missing, and the engine light keeps flashing. This whole experience has been a bad ordeal for us. We dropped it off Friday and an hour later the office staff called stating they misquoted us, didn't have the right parts and could not do the work that day. We arranged to bring the car back Tuesday leaving my wife without a car for the day. When she arrived the mechanic tried to turn her away because the office staff was out and the shop was essentially closed. The other mechanic was aware of the situation and the service was able to be done. The next day the vehicle was misfiring. We we had to go back two days in a row. My wife and I have lost many hours getting things resolved. I even paid $100.15 to replace a sensor that did not fix the problem and I can only assume wasn't bad in the first place. Finally Friday last week I demanded the original work from the previous Tuesday be reevaluated. The mechanic "discovered" cylinder 2 was misfiring instead of the random misfire he said the code reader was stating. I asked he remove it. Sure enough there was a huge crack in it. The mechanic stated it must be bad. It was replaced and I drove it ok until yesterday when it began to misfire again. Last Friday I had the car towed to Bakersfield where the shop that services the fleet of work vehicles at my work look at it. When I gave them the invoice for the work you did last Tuesday they immediately asked me why weren't the coils replaced. I stated I didn't know they needed it. They stated a vehicle with 200K miles needs new coils along with plugs. They also stated the plugs you put in were less than ideal. Next they removed the cylinder 2 plug. Again it had a huge crack. Two in a row? They stated the coil was bad causing the plug to fail and crack. They replaced the cylinder 2 coil and plug and the car no longer misfired. I would have gladly paid you for new coils and better plugs. They figured this out in minutes! I drive up and down to Bakersfield daily. I brought you a car with nothing wrong with it to do preventive maintenance and it's in worse shape and cost me more money and time than it should have. So on Today I had better plugs and new coils put in at a cost of almost $500! I think of full refund of the plug replacement portion of the first invoice and a complete refund of sensor replacement is in order. You have lost a customer read more

Update: The owner contacted me to rectify the situation. He waived the smog cost which was appreciated. The lady who helped me in the office was very rude however the smog was done quickly and efficiently. The three stars reflects the office staff. Not the owner or mechanic. Called this morning to ask if I needed an Appt for a smog. I was told no. I verified they were open until 5:00 when I called. Drove 30 minutes to get there. Arrived at 4:39 and was told, we don't take anyone after 4:30. Why wouldn't you tell me that when I called? Total waste of gas & time. read more

I had a smog done here and the wait time was very short, the office was very clean and everyone was nice and professional!

Came in for a smog, and I was finished in 20 minutes. Convenient, efficient and friendly !

If I could give -0 stars I would. They have incompetent mechanics. I've gotten my oil changed there and twice I have had to get a second oil change because they don't tighten the oil filters and I have a huge oil leak. Once on the 58, and once at home. Be aware if you get your oil changed there. read more

I just had the most unexpected outstanding experience at this garage when I went for my smog check today. Cynthia, the little receptionist, was amazing. She is masterful at juggling so many things at once. Pleasantly greeting clients, efficiently checking us in, ordering car parts, handling customer concerns, dealing with the DMV paperwork, and checking us out, all while maintaining a cheerful and welcoming attitude. This is my first time using this garage, but will absolutely remember them when the need arises. Very efficient staff! read more

Absolutely amazing. They we so nice and friendly. We are on a 17 day road trip and our Nissan Rogue stopped accelerating on the highway, we took it in and the after an hour we are back on the road. Definitely recommend for out of staters read more

I called in for a smog and the secretary answered she was great! Asked me to bring in the car before 1:30 for a smog and they had no wait. I took it in right away, was in and out in no time. Had my younger baby with me, the girl put a movie on for him while we waited but didn't get through even 20 minutes of it. Was a great easy process! read more

We recently took in an old truck with a check engine light. The code it was giving was very vague, and they could have easily recommended some VERY costly repairs. Instead, they did a good inspection, and found that it could be fixed pretty inexpensively. The check engine light went off (as they predicted) and it passed smog with flying colors. This is the 2nd time we've taken the truck to P&N, and both times we were treated with respect, given reasonable quotes for work, and never felt like we were being taken advantage of, or that they were trying to do unnecessary work. read more

Initially brought in for an AC recharge, Had my car for over 2 weeks, one after the other a new part was needed for my ac: orifice tube, switch, compressor, fan, blend door actuator. When the mechanic took off my steering and dash he broke multiple things in the process. Broke my airbag clock spring, ignition switch, tried to return my car broken to me. I pay 1600 for my ac service only to return my car within minutes realizing something is horribly wrong. Gaslights me trying to blame me saying I broke my clock spring doing a uturn - which isn't possible mind you. They say they'll fix it for free. Next day, ignition switch is bad, they call me, I go in office lady says mechanic requested to speak with me, only to scream at me my elderly mother and my 1 year old child. I say stop yelling at us he only gets more hostile and more volatile. He points his finger in my face and say get the f**** out of here simply for asking questions. I start recording but he didn't know it. Once he notices I start recording his demeanor changed and pulled out his own phone to record me "being a Karen" and appears calm in his own video. Office lady is a complete see you next Tuesday. When I first returned my car realizing they obviously f*d up when they took my dash apart, she comes out with a clipboard saying *I broke my clock spring* I sigh and she's like "what's with the sigh" with a horrible attitude I said this is the part you expect me to pay something right. "WeLL I wAs gOnNa oFfeR iT foR fReE" storms off. As you should since YALL BROKE IT. I've never had such a horrible experience. Zero accountability. When I picked up my car my dash fell apart and the mechanic that screamed at me, I was told would be fired, is smiling stuffing his face with his lunch. My alignment is horribly off and I have to hold my steering to the left to go straight. I got my refund of 1600 only to pay 950 for parts ONLY no labor no warranty on labor for my dash to fall apart as I'm leaving and the manager Jordan basically says oh well take your car and leave. They seem perfectly comfortable keeping Manny the mechanic employed to scream at customers, women and a baby at that. Not accommodating, very disrespectful, very little care for their customers. This is coming from a customer whose family has used p&N for YEARS. never bring our business here again. They also returned my car to me full of mouse droppings. I assume was from sitting in their garage for 2 weeks. They're perfectly fine returning your car in worse shape than when you brought it to them. I'll see them in court! read more

Im huge on Customer service and it was so refreshing to be able to have someone who owns a biz understand that and treat you so well. I will be talking all my vehicles here. Starting today for my first appointment. read more

Wow. I usually use a different shop in town, but I had to get smogged, so came here after reading reviews. I had a check engine light and it was running horribly, so I knew it need repair, too. The customer service was great, the price came in well below the estimate, and the communication was excellent. read more

This town is not big on Yelp...but I'll write this review anyway in hopes that someone will read it someday. I had a great experience with P & N Garage this past Monday when my car wouldn't start. I saw that it had great reviews and was in a good area so I was sold. I was delighted with the customer service and competence that all the staff I interacted with displayed. They did not try to up-sell me on anything and simply fixed the problem quickly with no hassle. The waiting room is clean and comfortable and I did not feel unwelcome (as I often do as a woman getting my car worked on.) If you happen to break down in Tehachapi definitely give them your business! read more

As a woman, I'm always worried about auto repair shops. But.... I went to P & N for a smog check, just picked them out of the paper because it said pass or don't pay. Figured I'd give them a try as I usually use Protech, but the last few times I've smogged with them, they've come up with little things I needed to purchase... I mean how many times do you need a new gas cap? I was told I needed one two smogs in a row... and once I needed some sort of hose thing, that I never quite understood and my dad later said was not necessary. I was pleasantly surprised by the friendliness at P & N... and the place was clean with a little waiting room with coffee and such for the customers. The owner even gave me a small discount after another customer (out-of-towner) came in and very loudly tried to bargain a better price by threatening to go to another shop if he didn't get the better deal.(which was already at a very reasonable price)... I know the reputation of the other shop and I wouldn't compare the two ever. I was happy to see the young owner handled this old coot with patience and kindness. I gained a lot of respect for that young man. I wouldn't have been so nice to a vulgar loud mouth who was obviously a super cheapo trying to play games to save a couple of bucks. (literally, he saved about $5.00) I would have sent him to the other shop and laughed as he paid double for his service. I'm all for getting a bargain, but this guy was rude and obnoxious about it. The young man who owns the place said he had worked the place with his father previously. What nice employees and what great customer service! I whole-heartedly recommend them and will be using them for all my smog checks in the future. read more

Highly recommended. Cheapest place to get an alignment in Tehachapi. $20 more next door. Good people, seem very honest and do good work. read more

Had a great experience at P and N garage today. Challenging suspension problem that was very difficult to diagnose. Staff took the tie over a couple days to narrow the troubleshooting. they were extremely concerned about not doing work that wasn't needed in order to save me money. You can tell its in the culture at P and N. this was my first experince and im definitely recommending the excellent service. Lisa at the front desk was really great, too. Tom F read more

Great service nice people fair price

All the 5-star reviews are true. We have been there on three separate occasions and the guys here are honest, knowledgeable, and have always provided above-average customer service. With auto repairs, one never knows for sure if they are trying to take advantage and take the long (expensive) way to fix your vehicle. We feel grateful to have found a business we can trust and fully recommend. We now have a go-to place for our vehicles. Thank you P & N Garage. read more

Only got a smog check .I was treated like a king. I will definitely be using this repair shop in the future read more

Amazing service. Fair prices. Albert is professional and understands the value of customer service. Came in for a brake job. Quoted me a fair price and when we were checking out, he found a add to save me more. Who does that? Will be back. read more

I went in to have my brakes looked at after they started making noise. I was honestly stressed about it and was worried it would be extremely costly. When all was said and done, the cost was quite reasonable and the work done was exemplary. Took the car in at 8am and was out of there at 10:30am with new brakes all around. The staff are very friendly and helpful and really helped put my mind at ease about the whole process. I will be bringing my car to them from now on. read more

Loved this place. Quick, clean, honored a discount when their machine was down two weeks later, sent everything needed to the DMV, affordable, and little restaurants etc in the area while you wait. I will be going there again. Thank you P&N Garage! read more

The engine on my 2003 Mercury Mountaineer blew, and I searched all around the area for the best deal(rebuilt or refurbished) and couldn't find anything for less than $4,000. I found that I could purchase a newly refurbished engine online for $1,800. I then began my search for a garage to do the job, P&N by far beat everyones prices, Rob quoted me a cost of $1,017. completely installed. I needed a new serpentine belt and the total cost to pull out the old engine and put in the new came out to be $1,034. For a total cost of $2,834. This beat the other estimates by $1,200. Once the engine arrived at their shop it only took them 7 working days to complete the job. The mountaineer has been running like a top for over a month now. No problems what so ever. I would recommend this garage to anyone for any size job. Thanks to the mechanics, and Rob at P&N garage. read more

Our car had a major rear axle problem after driving from Florida. P&N went above the call of duty in helping us on our way to Seattle. The repair was done on the same day we arrived after our car was towed from Barstow. It was amazing because it was also a Friday! They stayed opened for us and completed the job so we could beat the bad weather that was coming in a day. They took excellent care of two woman travelling alone. Thank you, Thank you! read more

The service here is great. Called 30 mins prior to arriving to make sure I can get in. The people who work here are very nice and friendly. No running around. Just straight to the point. Don't ever hesitate to take your car here. This family operated business gets the job done! read more

The best place in town for all services and repairs. I've had everything from oil changes and smog to a new engine installed. Highly recommend!! read more

Taken my car here a few times. Service has been good and reliable. Prices were reasonable (especially compared to other shops in town). Don't know the name of the lady that seems to run the place but she is very helpful, friendly, and was pretty straight up and honest with me. read more

Awesome! Smog check in a flash, with excellent customer service. Definitely will return.
