    Kicker, Pioneer, Alpine and much more.
    Sal H.

    I initially brought my vehicle in for ceramic tinting and was quoted a very reasonable price. While I waited I noticed the installers pulled the wrong film and I brought the issue to the owner to address. He stated he would resolve it and he went and talked to the installers. They removed the visible box of film and continued the installation. They tint display is misleading as it's not 3M film, they are installing a local brand named Solar Free. Upon recent testing by another stereo/tint shop they told me I actually ended up NOT getting the ceramic installed and it was likely what I had seen them using in the beginning which was the Nano Carbon. So, I paid for Ceramic, but they likely switched it to the cheaper Nano Carbon on installation. While I was getting the tint done Anthony offered me a great deal on a Kicker hidewaway subwoofer. Thinking I had been treated fairly I went back a few weeks later and had them do the installation. He originally quoted me $400 installed, but on arrival he tells me that they needed to install an adapter since I had a factory radio. I informed him it was an aftermarket upgrade with a 12" screen and not a factory radio. This radio required no adapter as it has RCA outputs for amps. He wrote up the invoice and I paid the bill without looking, later to realized he still added to unnecessary adapter to the bill for an extra $50! As I was doing other work on the truck I decided to look at their wiring. I realized they tapped a power wire instead of installing the wiring to the battery and they didn't use an adapter, one that they billed me for, they tapped speaker wires that go to the rear amp. So in all, they failed to install the amp the proper way and failed to install parts that I paid for. A part that I told them was not needed, but I was charged for regardless. I won't return and I am considering filing a complaint with the DEPARTMENT OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS * BUREAU OF HOUSEHOLD GOODS AND SERVICES as they are the ones who licensed car stereo shops.

    Went there to get a head unit with Apple car play and a back up cam installed in my wife's Nissan Rogue. I paid almost $800 Long Story short: It's trash. I was better off leaving the stock unit in the car here why: 1) Once installed the quality of the audio became terrible! And I mean straight trash. So bad that I went back and had the guy at the front take a look. He looked and cranked the volume to like 30 and said "if you wanna take it all the way You need to have an amp and new speakers installed" after 30min of back and forth I finally understood that what he meant by "all the way" was louder volume. I explained to him about 6 different ways that my issue was the QUALITY of the audio (when at a reasonable volume like 15) not the loudness. 2) The head unit itself is trash. The quality of the audio when you're using the phone is terrible. It literally sounds better for both people on the call when you're just using speakerphone vs using the phone through the unit (I tested this). Also it constantly freezes. If you start a call before plugging your phone in the unit freezes. If you unplug your phone from the unit during a call it also freezes. At this point you can't turn the volume up or down or even turn off the unit. You have to turn the whole car off for it to reset itself. When I brought all of this to the guy at the front desk he said "well you asked for a unit with apple car play and a backup camera. " I asked to have the stock unit out back and he said he'd have to charge me around another $300. I've put new head units in 2 other vehicles I've owned and have never had issues like this. I'd avoid this place at all costs.

    Did a fantastic job wiring my Nissan hood with Rough Country ditch lights and installing a Digital HD mirror dash cam. All wires are neatly hidden, giving a professional appearance. Highly recommended.

    Horrible company

    Horrible . Got my sound system done it came apart. 05/07/2026 came to get it put back together he said "I can't do anything for you" without even checking I paid more than $500 DO NOT GO HERE !!

    This was allegedly "ceramic" tint film that they put on my back window.

    0 stars, if it's possible and nev coming back here. I agreed with this shop to tint my 7-window sedan with carbon film for $150. When I arrived, they suddenly charged me $170, claiming it was "tax." The receipt showed no breakdown, just a flat $170, which felt misleading from the start. They also ran out of film mid-job, leaving my back windows untinted and making me return the next day. What made it worse was seeing another customer walk in and get their car tinted right away, as if they were prioritized over me. To "compensate," they promised to upgrade the back tint to ceramic. Weeks later, when I went back to confirm, they insisted it was ceramic, but it was clearly just carbon. That felt like a flat-out lie. On top of that, when reinstalling my window visor, they didn't align it properly, the sides were uneven, untaped and looked sloppy. Between the surprise upcharge, poor scheduling, broken promises, and dishonest work, I cannot recommend this shop. Customers deserve honesty, transparency, and respect, unfortunately, I experienced none of that here.

    WARNING ‼ If you are seeing this run don't walk down to PCH audio NOW! I have a 2024 Volkswagen atlas cross sport that needed a better sound system because the stock system was super low, just terrible. I saw this spot on Instagram came down met with Anthony and his crew and I am nothing short of amazed at how they took really good care of me. Anthony was super knowledgeable he knew exactly what I wanted and needed! Guys my car sounds AMAZING. Their prices are great, they are definitely not like the other guys, they actually care. The entire staff was super warm, welcoming very friendly and reassuring. Please go check them out they are truly a one stop shop.

    Don't be fooled by dissss fooo. Rico not so suave quoted me 500 for Memphis 0 gauge amp kit than told me to check online cause I said it seems expensive Target sells for 297.99 PLAYED YOURSELF

    New headrest TVs

    Thanks again to Anthony and the guys . Great work. Everything came out really clean couldn't have asked for a better install. The work was done on the time frame he gave me and all for a good price. I rate this place 5 stars. If you're looking for a great custom audio shop this is the place. Thanks again Anthony I will be back for further installs.

    5% window tint on all 7 windows
    Natali Z.

    Best place to get your windows tinted!! Thought it was going to take longer than 2 hours and it was less than expected. Got 5% on all 7 windows for my Nissan Kicks. They had a great deal! I seen all the reviews and had to come try it out. Anthony and his crew did an amazing job! I love it so much it was worth every penny! I'm so glad they added a bright sticker on the window switch to remind me not to roll them down!! If it wasn't for that I would've rolled the window down 2 hours later lol

    See all

I didn't want to risk it. Anyway, I take the car in for my appointment and meet Nathan. Professional, efficient, etc. He advised me that patching/plugging a tire is free which I didn't realize. Pleasant surprise! He also let me know about my tire condition for all fours and let me know what replacing two rears would cost (performance tires = replace same side/size at a time). But here's the thing, he provided the info but there wasn't an uncomfortable hard sell. He was professional and comprehensive but at no time did I feel like I was being sweated or pressured. In fact, I remember sitting there thinking, "huh, well heck maybe I'll just buy them here when the time comes!" That's solely because Nathan came at me as a professional, with expertise, a calm composed demeanor, and information (not a pitch). As someone who has worked in the auto industry, including as a senior executive, it was so refreshing to be in a space seeing a young professional with a passion and expertise for his craft. Delivering it in a way that wasn't to aggressively close a deal but foster a relationship that would create a long term commitment to the brand. America's Tire, pay attention! All-in-all, I was impressed and my expectations were exceeded. Well done Nathan!

They responded quickly, were courteous, and didn't try to tack on a diagnostic fee just to take a look. When I dropped off the car, the technician walked me through their process, starting with the bulbs before moving into any potential electrical issues (which I really appreciated.) It ended up being the simplest fix: both bulbs were burned out. They had everything replaced within a few hours. Fair pricing, clear communication, and no upselling. I'll definitely be back for future repairs. Side note- they have the cutest shop kitten. ‍

They said they could and gave me a timeline for working on the vehicle that matched my needs. While I appreciate them getting me in on short notice, they consistently over-promised and under-delivered on when they would be able to work on my vehicle. They were able to diagnose a couple of leaks that they thought were the problem and sent me photos to show me what they were looking at. In the past when I've left my car at this shop for work they sent over a detailed estimate before starting the work, but this time I only received the verbal estimate over the phone. I drive an old car, which isn't worth much, and I did let the person know that I wasn't interested in investing more in repairs than the vehicle is worth. As it was, the two leaks were just over $1K to fix, and I OK'd the work to begin. After fixing the first two leaks, they then came back and told me there was a third leak, which would require a more major repair to the transmission and they would have to have their transmission person (who wasn't there that weekend) send me an estimate the next day. While I understand that it's plausible that the third leak wasn't something they could have originally diagnosed, it felt a bit weird that the photo they used to show me the leak was one of the original photos they had sent before starting any work. If the leak was visible in that photo, I'm unclear why they couldn't have diagnosed it earlier. The added cost of this additional repair definitely tips the scales of worth-it/not-worth-it to repair vs replace this car, so I wish I had had all the information before deciding to make the initial repairs. Unfortunately, despite stabilizing the ATF level, fixing the leaks did not resolve the transmission issue. On a smaller scale, they didn't check or top up the tire pressure, which most mechanics I've gone to have done as a courtesy when working on my vehicle. The day after I picked up my car the tire pressure light went on, and when I checked my tires all four of them had low pressure. It's a small thing, but especially when dealing with expensive mechanical items like cars, the small things matter a lot in creating a sense of security and trust with your mechanic. They did mention that they were under new management since the last time I had been in, which may account for the different experiences.
