Prior to using them, I received several quotes from my repair through Yelp, as well as the Nissan dealership. The quote from 1st Choice was by far the best, and half the amount quoted by the dealership. I selected 1st Choice and scheduled the repair date. The work was completed to my satisfaction. I want to mention that the mechanics are very knowledgeable and extremely professional. I would highly recommend 1st Choice for your automotive needs.

Last year, he decided to branch off and focus primarily on mods, custom builds, and speciality work on Subarus whiling changing the name of the business to RFC Industries. In doing this, he sold the service side (oil changes, tire rotations, basic repairs, etc.) of his business to 1st Choice Autoworks. So I've been coming to them for the non-off roading specific stuff that Chris still does for me. Luke and everyone else here is incredibly kind, knowledgable, and professional. This past weekend, I panicked since I'm leaving for an extended work trip (1.5 months) which involves my heavily modded Subaru Forester and I had an axle issue days before I was supposed to leave. I texted Chris over the weekend and he said come to 1st Choice by 8:00am on Monday. I didn't have an appointment, and just showed up. And this isn't my style. I'm usually so highly organized and do my best to be respectful, schedule appointments, and go through the proper channels. But I woke up at 6:00am and was in Murrieta by 8:00am. I explained my situation and they were so accommodating and understanding and kind. It took all day but they helped me out and got my car back in good health and I'm so thankful they were cool with me just showing up. This shop is trustworthy, professional, and now is really familiar with off-roading and modded, lifted Subarus due to SubiWorks' and Chris' involvement. Please give these guys your business if you're in the area. They also work on non-Subarus. Thank you, 1st Choice dudes. I appreciate you!

My experience was extremely disappointing. I brought in two different vehicles, and both ended up…read morein worse condition than when I dropped them off. On the first car, the engine was reassembled and started without verifying the timing, which resulted in significant engine damage. On the second car, sensors were removed during the repair process and were never reinstalled. Because of that, I couldn't get the vehicle running properly or repaired elsewhere without additional major work, and I ultimately had to sell it for parts. This experience cost me a tremendous amount of time, money, and stress. Based on what happened with my vehicles, I would not trust this shop with another repair.

I tried to unpair it but could not re-pair my phone to the car. I even factory reset the car, all the smaller tricks before that. To no avail. I called on Wednesday saying I could really only come in on Friday. They said sure bring it in. Today I did so. Johnny helped and he easily fixed my issue. He probably thought I was another dumb blonde, and no, he didn't make me feel that way. But I sure did when the fix was a simple cable (and believe me, I tried around 6 different cables, which did nothing). He fixed it easily (and explained there is a cable that is a syncing cable, not just a charging cable, which was my issue--apparently I have a bunch of the charging kind) and I was so appreciative. If they couldn't have, I wasn't sure it would be fixable. So glad Johnny took a moment out of his day to easily fix it. He didn't charge me. But I would've paid for it because I was frustrated in not being able to use my navigation. Thank you, Johnny for your patience and expertise! I will be recommending this place to anyone needing any auto work.

I have had a lot of trouble with cars, just always. And being a single mom I cannot afford to be ripped off and pay thousands at a time or wait days and days while a shop has my car but hasn't even looked at it yet. Stay Tuned Auto is a mobile Automotive Repair company that I use and I will never let anyone else touch my car again. I know the owner really well now and I trust him implicitly. He has saved me thousands, literally, when other shops would have ripped me off. It took him less than five minutes to listen to my car and start listing every detail about my engine and exactly what needed to be done. I have never been more impressed. I have an old 90 Geo Metro that quite literally would not run if it weren't for the guy Steven. I wanted to post a review to let everyone know about Stay Tuned Auto, so you know they're the best and you can get an honest company to work on your car and save you time and money without the stress. I highly recommend it! 951-440-8621 read more

Absolutely highly recommend this business. After searching for several weeks to find someone to replace the brakes on our Infiniti, all I had to show was a batch of overpriced quotes. I happened on Steve and stopped to talk to him. A couple of days later he did the brakes in short order, for a ridiculously reasonable price. I have given his business card to all the drivers in our household, and told them whenever they think they need auto help to call him first. Steve is the honest and reliable mechanic we have all been looking for. It was a pleasure to do business with him. read more

Not only did they come right to our house to handle an oil change and run a diagnostic on our car, but they went above and beyond with their customer service. The mechanic, Austin and the owner Roger explained exactly what he thought the issue was and suggested we bring it into the shop to get it properly sorted. You know that rare feeling when you just know someone is being completely honest with you? That was the immediate vibe we got. No pressure, no upselling, just genuine, transparent, and expert advice. It is so hard to find an honest mechanic these days, and finding a family business that treats you like family is a total game-changer. We highly recommend them and will absolutely be using them for all of our vehicles moving forward!

They don't have payment plans of their own but you can do Affirm on your own through Apple Pay. The mechanic and owner, Roger, was very kind and thorough in explaining what he was doing and what he recommended next (but also wasn't pushy on other possible repairs like I've seen from other mechanics). I had many questions and he answered them with patience and helpfulness. He even invited me back to show me and explain what he did and some potential issues. I haven't had a mechanic do that before. Also, while I was back there, the garage was clean and appeared organized, which I appreciated. I felt the mechanic was trustworthy and honest about the work he was doing and its costs. Added bonus - the storefront is very clean and has couches to relax in while you wait. 100% coming back to this shop for future repairs!

Jeff was referred to me by my co-worker. I decided to go to Jeff for my brakes because my regular…read moremechanic wanted to put new pads on what he said were worn out rotors. I dropped my vehicle off to Jeff and went to the mall. Jeff phoned me and said I didn't need new rotors; he could machine the ones that were on the vehicle. A little surprised upon receiving this news, I said it was o.k. to machine the old rotors. Jeff also added an oil change to the job. When I picked up the vehicle, the bill was nearly the same price he had quoted me for brakes and rotors! Only I got no new rotors. I wasn't happy about the charges. Two weeks after the brake job I had to call Jeff and tell him that every time I let up off the breaks, there was a grinding-sticking sound! Creaking and grinding. I was not happy! He told me to bring the vehicle back and I did. He took the vehicle out on the road for about 30 mins and came back and said I shouldn't have any more problems. He stated the noise was because the brakes were new. I left, and the very next day the noise was back! He did the brakes back in Nov 2024; it's now June 2025 and the noise is still there! I have no idea if Jeff's brake job is going to cause me more problems down the line. The Toyota dealer wants $220 to check the brakes and I can't afford it right now. On top of the problems with his brake job, Jeff's oil change has caused me misery as well! Two weeks ago I took my vehicle for the oil change, as it was a little over due. Guess what . . . Jeff had torqued the oil filter onto the engine so hard, that the oil techs could not remove it without damage to my vehicle! They told me to take the vehicle back to Jeff, or go to the Toyota dealer for the oil change, as they would have the 'special tool' to remove the filter. In all the years gone by, and all 8 cars that I have owned, I have NEVER had this happen! I was livid! I called Jeff as I left from trying to get my oil changed, but no answer. I left an upset voicemail on his work phone and he didn't even have the courtesy to return my call. My first thought was, "Wow, I have to take the vehicle back to him anyway for the breaks; I'll just have him do the oil change too." Then I thought, "What are you thinking? This man has already messed up the brake job; why would you go to him for a 2nd mistake!" So I did go to Toyota and thank God they were able to do my oil change without incident. I will never go back to Jeff for repairs or maintenance and will not recommend his services to anyone. I hope I don't have to see him in small claims court once I have my breaks looked at by a reputable automotive service business.
