They noticed I was past due on my oil change and said we could take you now and have you put in an hour. This would have never happened at my old mechanic. To be seen by them you have to go first thing in the morning leave your car and hope they call you same day to say it's ready for pickup. I would definitely recommend come here. Fast efficient and worth your time.

Abraham was very professional and clear about availability and experience with the issue. We mentioned we'd been to two dealerships who told us it's not under warranty, which Abraham said is nonsense and explained what we need to do next to deal with them. It was just a 10min phone call, but it told us everything about Abraham and where we'll be going for our next car issues. If we can't get the dealership to honor the warranty conditions, you can be sure we'll be visiting Abraham now and for the next repair.

A belated Thanks!…read more Early April I was up against time regarding my 1987 Nissan 300 ZX. I had been to four local smog locations recommended through the BRP program for California. All 4 did not want to deal with this generating stress and doubt. Through the BRP program I found F&P COMPLETE Automotive located in Pasadena. And from my initial phone call there was a great relief. Brian Quinn answered professionally, confidently and personally. Along with answering every time I called. What a difference already! I felt confident from the start. I explained my situation and he said he could get it done. Even up against time to get it done. This customer service made / makes all the difference. They went beyond the smog fix to repair other items a 1987 Nissan can produce. Fabulous! Grateful every time I get in the car! Fremont and Perdon along with repairing my smog situation honoring and applying the BRP program provided by the state. Complete professionals led by Brett Quinn. Outstanding experience! Many Thanks!

They even checked a couple issues that I brought up to put my mind at ease for no additional cost. The repairs were quick and exactly as quoted. I also think it is important to note that they source quality aftermarket parts, in this case they replaced the brake master cylinder with Aisin which is a good brand that makes a lot of OE Toyota parts. They also do alignments and tire installation which most shops stay away from. Very convenient. Thank you Vince and team for ensuring the vehicles safety!
