We can't do your smog today. Even after reminding him that they're supposed to be open for another 45 minutes he told me, yeah, I have one in front of you and won't take mine. He was rude, and inconsiderate of my time. And need for a smog. I will not be going back or using any of the Balswicks service centers ever again. I'll spend my money with someone more deserving.

Amazing service! My…read moreson was driving to So. Cal to spend a week with his brother before the brother got married. Just a carefree week of bachelor brothers hanging out. He was supposed to drive there on Saturday and get to So. Cal before dark. However, he left after dark. He passed Los Banos (Route 33 exit) close to midnight and his engine started running really rough and it was losing power. He limped to the next exit, at less than 25 mph, turn around, and come back to Los Banos. We picked him up around 1:30 and got back home at 3AM. At 8AM (Easter morning), we started calling mechanics in Los Banos. Of course, we used Yelp and sorted by ratings. We went down the list and left messages for everyone. We just prayed that someone would be willing to work on a holiday. Jesse was the only one who answered the phone. We explained our predicament. He agreed to help if we could get there by 10. He had a family picnic planned. My son's car was parked about 2 miles from Jesse's shop. We were able to get it running and over to the shop before 10AM. Jesse found the problem, was able to obtain the necessary parts, and had the car fixed in about 3 hours. He charged a very reasonable amount. My son made it to So. Cal before dark (a day late), and Jesse still got to spend the rest of the day with his family. If anyone I know ever needs a good mechanic in the Los Banos area, I would highly recommend Jesse and Advanced Service & Repair. Thank you, Jesse. God bless you.

Buying a used car is always a bit nerve-wracking, but I was pretty confident that our recent pick was a good one. Still having a pro (and he seemed to be a real pro) pick over every last detail, rummage through the details of the OBDII logs and tell me a pretty complete story of what had happened in it's history. Better still, we got a test drive together and I saw him put the car through its paces (brakes, acceleration, steering) in a way I wouldn't have know how to. Really helped me buy, and it's been a great car (so far!)

Bottom Line: Money...Well...Spent. I would use him again in a heartbeat.

I'm so shocked by the level of disrespect and unprofessionalism I experienced while trying to get…read moremy master cylinder fixed. It's already difficult as a woman to find a mechanic that feels trustworthy and this business feels like the epitome of scammer mechanic. I messaged on Tuesday and booked my appointment for Friday. Confirmed with him said I'll see him Friday. He canceled on me day of 3 hours before the appointment. I took the afternoon off work so I could do this. I asked to reschedule for Saturday or Sunday because his website said he was available both days from 10-3 he said not available. He didn't want to do it for a reason unknown to me. I asked for the $60 deposit back but apparently I was the one that canceled on him so I don't get the deposit back? Even tho I woke up to a text saying he can't come today or any time this weekend because he doesn't feel like it. I've had to argue for the deposit and I'm still uncertain if I'll actually get the $60 back he doesn't see to be the most trustworthy. Genuinely so scammy he's the reason people don't trust mechanics because they behave like this as soon as it's time to actually to business. He was so pushy about booking the appt too saying if I don't book right away it will cause "delays" whole time he's the delay. Super rude, super unprofessional, super bad attitude in general.

I found Better Car Inspections handles mobile car inspections in Sacramento. I called and Amy picked up right away. She was very pleasant and helpful, and answered my questions about the process. She said they needed about an hour-or-so's notice, but otherwise could book an inspection right away. Very convenient! The pricing was very reasonable, and I opted for paying a little extra for the "Vehicle Value Estimate," which I'm glad I did as it gave me a helpful reference for the dealer's asking price based on the condition of the specific vehicle. Beau was the technician, and he was absolutely awesome! He texted me photos and offered to ask any questions I had. He did a thorough inspection, and really knew what he was doing.

When I was trying to pre arrange to bring in my car to get checked on he wanted to have it there on his time and not mine. Once I agreed to his time and date he acted like he gave into what I needed he asked why I showed up that day and claimed he agreed to Monday. But I'm a very meticulous person I had Friday on my calendar he even made a comment for me to uber to work bc I said It would be an issue to bring on a work day and a non issue on my free day. When he finally got the part for my car he waited until I showed up to tell me the part didn't work out. So he left it in when I asked why he didn't simply communicate with me and put my old part back in he said it was too much or double the work. Then later proceeds to call me to say he needs the car back to take out the part and put my old part back because he needed to return the part. Very strange bc he could've saved both of us some time just doing it then and there. When I asked for my money back he said he was going to deduct 100$ for the "work" but I don't think it's just taking in consideration that my car was not fixed. He ordered another part and claimed it arrived broken so I'll just take it to Honda and pay whatever their fee is to get it done correctly. He also refused to give me any invoices / itemized receipt for the parts / work being done. Saying it would've been more to write it up in the shop meaning I don't know if I'm being charged accordingly or overcharged.
