I needed a Smog certificate, so I started looking for a garage in town…read more I checked Yelp and sure enough I found a couple of places...Now like most of my reviews I was aware of this garage and I'd been by it a hundred times, they were always busy. Certainly the sign of a good place whether it's a restaurant, car repair or a bar. I linked onto the site and followed along until I found the spot to make a reservation. Now the question was asked "leave car" or I'll wait". I chose leave the car and no reservations were available for a few days so...I backed up and chose I'll wait an available times popped up for tomorrow... Okay tomorrow 9:45 that would work. I arrived for my appointment a bit early, Jaedon was in the office and he logged the car in and said he'd call when it was ready, cool. So I left to do my work out and walk and a couple hours later I saw the missed call and a text to pick up my car, wow. Now he had told me the service fee and I thought that was a bit high and yes that price included the smog certificate. Once I was back in the office, (they have a great little waiting room just behind the shop) Jaedon reviewed the inspection they had done on the car and the washed my car too. A good shop will wash your car, that was cool. Everything was in good order, the car passed the smog test. I ordered the filters and wiper blades that needed replacement from the big A and saved a couple bucks. I was very pleased with the service and easefulness at Wimmers, you earned another happy customer. Foodguy - Martin

WOW!! My car has…read morehad trouble starting for the past several months intermittently; we replaced the alternator, battery, terminal... caps? whatever holds it in place. And never a solution that lasted very long. We kept wondering if it was the starter, and our suspicions were confirmed after my car had issues starting again this morning. We were turned away from a different shop, but a quick call confirmed that Wimmer's could help us out. We arrived around 12:45 and ended up picking our car up at about 5pm - they were able to switch out the starter and complete an oil change, they even gave me a complimentary exterior wash! Altogether it ended up around $900 including the diagnostic and the VERY thorough multipoint inspection. I'm so appreciative of the whole team, they really hustled to make sure that we could have our car back before they closed and it truly means so much.

Wrona's Quality Auto Repair is a 5-star-plus business!…read more I took my son's Honda Civic in for an A/C inspection and found out it needed significant repairs. Tony and the entire team were outstanding. They took the time to explain everything, worked hard to provide a fair and reasonable quote, and completed the repairs with exceptional quality at a great price. Their honesty, professionalism, and customer service truly exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Wrona's Quality Auto Repair to anyone needing reliable auto repairs--especially Cal Poly parents looking for a trustworthy shop to take care of their student's vehicle while they're away at school. Thank you, Wrona's, for taking such great care of us! Kelly F.

Well I never thought this would ever happen ! I was happy with my service experience…read more I checked in for service today at 830 am my appointment time and was quickly assigned a service advisor. Joshua Whitlock. He was very helpful and professional. I have only had previously going back about 20 years, all horrible to bad experiences here with sales and service. So today being pleased was unexpected. It was a long awaited service for a factory recall on the passenger front airbag sensors. Check sensors and if needed replace them. He said 70% have been needing replacement when checked. To make matters stressful for me I came down from Paso. I explained to Joshua that my son in law was supposed to be off today so I could do my car appointment in SLO but due to fires burning all over CA he was not released from his CDF station and I would have to get back to Paso by 1125 to pick up the little one from Pre K. I had called my son as a backup to get him in case I was delayed at the dealership. Well the car was finished in less than 90 minutes. The Seat had to be removed to check sensors and replace them. So all was great and I was able to leave early and get back to North County to pick up the Grandson. I was very pleasantly surprised .

I'm taking a moment to share my experience with Morin Brothers Automotive Services because it truly…read morestood out. I live in Montana, and my son is attending Cal Poly, SLO. Early one morning this week, I got a call from him: "Papa, something's wrong with my brakes, and I need an oil change." Being far away, I immediately began an exhaustive online search for automotive centers in the area, carefully reading through numerous reviews to find a place I could trust to take care of him properly. Morin Brothers consistently came up in my search, so I gave them a call, and I'm very glad I did. From the very first interaction, Elena was outstanding. She was responsive, professional, patient, and incredibly easy to communicate with. Even after reading a mix of reviews that made me slightly hesitant, her level of care and clarity gave me the confidence to move forward. We discussed the needed services, oil change, front and rear brakes, and a tire rotation. While the cost was not cheap, it was fair and comparable to other estimates I had received. When Elena later called to review additional diagnostics, I admit I was cautious, but trusting her judgment, I authorized the work so my son's vehicle could be properly and safely evaluated. A few hours later, she followed great news: the additional diagnostics revealed no issues, and there would be no charge for that extra time. She also mentioned that a previous oil change may have resulted in some excess oil being spilled, which likely contributed to the concern. As a parent, especially with a student away at college, moments like this matter. It's not just about the repair, it's about trust, communication, honesty, and peace of mind. Morin Brothers delivered on all fronts. They communicated clearly, acted with integrity, and stood by their work. Whatever may have led to the occasional negative review, my experience suggests there may be more to those stories. This will now be our go-to shop for my son's vehicle. Even if, though perhaps not, the cost is slightly higher at times, knowing your son or daughter is being looked after properly, especially when you're not nearby as a parent, is worth every bit of it. I am truly grateful for professionalism, transparency, and care. Highly recommended. - Thaddeus Widmer
