      You know I keep coming back here because my senior mom is always concerned about her Cadillac. But as I wait here Jimmy and his staff are so dang blasted cool other owners pull up as soon as they have a thought something is wrong with their vehicle and Jimmy addresses it and places his customers at ease! If your anywhere near San Leandro you should make Precision your mechanic shop!!!!

      I had one of the best customer service experiences I've had in a long time at Doral Auto Repair…read more Before even coming in, John was incredibly helpful over the phone. After I told him my make and model, he suggested I pick up a replacement headlight bulb just in case and told me to come in anytime--no appointment needed. When I arrived, he immediately came out, had me open the hood, and took a look on the spot. Within less than 3 minutes, he had the new bulb installed and working perfectly. What really stood out was what happened next--I asked how much I owed him, and he told me there was no charge. That level of honesty and kindness is rare these days. John didn't try to upsell me, didn't waste my time, and didn't treat a small job like it wasn't worth his attention. He handled it with professionalism, efficiency, and genuine care. Because of that, Doral Auto Repair has earned my trust. The next time I need any work done on my car, this is exactly where I'm going. Highly recommend.

If you do go there beware of the gentleman at front desk with glasses and a goofy hat. I give three stars because it seemed pretty fast (24 hours) and because i know i cant be certain about work condition, although i did notice some of the tools there were low quality harbour frieght brand. I was stranded, traveling in my van. I feel that John treated me with prejudice because I was traveling in a van. I wasn't invited to have coffee or snacks, I struggled to find the restroom, and I walked out of there to a hotel 2 miles away twice without being offered a ride. No one tried to shake my hand. Employment is rarely empowerment. Predators dont make themselves known.

Early knew exactly which tires needed to be cross rotated and reassured me he had it covered. He even drew a diagram on the spot to explain it. Big props to the man. I really appreciate the experience and knowledge, sir!

      This review is for the Big O Tires at 2201 Washington Ave in San Leandr., near Old San Leandro --…read morenot the other Big O location farther south on Washington Ave. My husband brought our vehicle in for service, and while the staff was relatively nice, they were not very helpful. I can see how some of the other reviews mentioning staff attitudes may be accurate based on several visits to this shop, though that was not the main issue during this most recent visit. The larger issue was the service itself. With an appointment, it still took about **three hours** for an oil change, tire rotation, balancing, and related basic service. We also paid to have the coolant system checked/pressure-tested because there was a leak, but they did not find it. My husband later found the leak himself within about five minutes, which was frustrating and made us question how thorough the inspection was. There are also concerns about the oil change. I cannot say for certain, so I will not state it as fact, but the oil filter looked questionable afterward, with fresh oil drips and an overall appearance that made us wonder whether it had actually been replaced. At this point, this has become a safety concern for us, and that is a deal breaker, and thus overpriced/not a good value. The staff may be adequate, but we do not feel confident in the quality or thoroughness of the work. We will not be returning. 2 stars and on Google for at least they weren't rude to him.

Shortly after dropping it off, I got my detailed analysis, followed by a link that let me watch the work being done livetime. Thought I was going to end up paying a lot more than I did. 2006 F-150. Never been in the shop. I figured I was going to pay big time... I was due. Darin and George we're straight shooters, so I'm a satisfied customer. My lift that they provided was $8, that's how close I live. And all these years I've been going all these other places? Dang. DannyBoy

      Where do I begin? I genuinely wanted to like this place because I had read several positive…read morereviews, and my initial experience with the staff and customer service was pleasant. I brought my car in because it wasn't driving the way it normally does. They kept the vehicle for a day and contacted me the following day to recommend replacing the transmission. The estimate was approximately $9,800, which was far beyond what I expected--and, quite frankly, extremely concerning. My vehicle is not yet six years old, and I have consistently kept up with routine maintenance, including regular oil changes. Naturally, I was very disappointed to be told that I needed a replacement transmission, especially at that cost. I decided to get a second opinion from another repair shop, and I'm very glad I did. They diagnosed the issue as spark plugs and ignition coils--not a transmission problem. After replacing those components, my car is now running beautifully. I appreciate the customer service I received, but unfortunately, I cannot justify returning to a shop that would recommend a repair of nearly $10,000 when the actual issue turned out to be something significantly less expensive. I understand that diagnostics can sometimes be complicated and that different shops may reach different conclusions. However, an estimate of $9,800 is a substantial amount of money, and I strongly recommend getting a second opinion before committing to a repair of that magnitude. Thank you for your time and for the service you provided. I sincerely wish you the best, but based on this experience, I will likely may not return.

      Not too great, not too awful…read more Just as everyone's said, it's super quick! The most I had to wait was in line since it was pretty busy with 3 or 4 cars ahead of me. But once you get to your turn, they finish it up real fast. Their customer service isn't too great. I think we maybe said a total of 10 words to each other the whole time. I mean, I know the whole point is to get the job done and they did but customer service is important too! The place also seems a bit dirty and lightweight sketchy but it is what it is. You don't have to get out of your car so that's not really a bother anyways. To be honest, I mostly go here for the convenience. 10 minutes for an oil change and it's in the area - it just makes everything so easy. I wouldn't say it's the best place to go but if you just want to get your oil changed quickly, this is the place to go.

      Worse experience ever. I have been going here for at least 6 years. Once with my Buick and now with…read moremy BMW. I went to get a $110 oil change, simple right? No. Technician Samuel, replaced the filter and in the process broke my coolant hose. They then told me that Kevin(owner) would need to come and replace the hose. They had me wait and hour and a half for Kevin to arrive. As I was waiting, tech(Omar) told me this is common and happens all the time. This has never happened on my car so that did not make the situation better. I had to ask Omar multiple times when will the owner plan on getting here with no updates. Upon Kevin arriving, I ask him, "if this is so common, why don't you all have hoses on hand?." He immediately gives me attitude and tells me that "you people always harass." I say "you people?" with a look of confusion and he immediately asks as if I am bothering him because I ask him why does a customer have to wait an hour and a half for an issue they cause. In the end. He placed the hose but my coolant light is now on. Not only am I filing a claim with the Better Business Bureau but i suggest that you DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. WORSE SERVICE EVER.
