Steve and Andrea are honest and amazing people. I truly trust them with my vehicle anytime.

Steve and Andrea are two incredibly hard working people. I always feel comfortable leaving my car in their care. My family has happily trusted Steve for more than 20 years. It is so refreshing knowing that I don't have to worry about if I will get competent auto repair with a fair price. read more

Steve is honest and never up-sells. To some he may seem gruff, but he is straight forward and upright in all his dealings. He knows his stuff and if something is out of his range of knowledge he's not afraid to say so. Not cheap but fair. Highly recommend. read more

Steve just gets down to business, that's all. And what's so bad about that?So, if you feel like his attitude or personality are devoid, just get past that. Tell him what's wrong. What you want fixed and he'll do it! Plain and simple, Steve is an excellent mechanic and wife Andrea is a breath of fresh air. Steve has repaired my '95 Mustang Cobra twice now, the first time painstakingly sourcing a speedometer issue that plagued me for 2 years since I've owned the car! His credentials (ASE Master Mechanic) speak for themselves. read more

I had my truck serviced by two different shops without success to trouble shooting and repairing the performance of my engine. I took it to Steve's Garage where this team has it running great!!! Thank you !!! read more

Very disrespectful owner. Called to get a simple diagnostic done on my vehicle and was rejected when speaking with the owner Steve. I voiced how I was in need of advice on what to do or if he could point me in the right direction if possible and he said how he did not want to help nor did he intend on looking at my vehicle due to him having other important things to do. This was very unprofessional and was the worst customer services I've seen. The lack of respect towards customers should be something they need to fix at the garage not just the "cars". Would not recommend. read more

This place is not your old school dirty ole garage. It's impeccable. The wife runs the office the husband does more than guess what's wrong with your car and take a stab at it - he is so so thorough and honest you will be amazed. I was referred here from a neighbor (we are new to Camarillo) and it is such a relief to have quickly built a sense of confidence and trust in a mechanic. We came from LA where our mechanic had worked for the whole family for many many years and Steve made us feel like we hit the jackpot on our first try. read more

Wonderful service. They really care about taking proper care of your car. Have lived in Camarillo for 20 years and this is the first auto repair shop where I came away feeling my car was serviced by the best! read more

Steve understands if there is something going wrong with your engine by just listening to it. He is very honest and straight to the point. I've read some of these reviews that say he's grumpy some of the time. Well, do you want a mechanic that is super friendly and doesn't know what he is doing, or do you want an excellent mechanic that is honest and tells the truth? Talk to his wife Andrea and she'll answer any of your questions. read more

Steve knows cars! He is trustworthy, reliable and honest. I highly recommend Steve's Garage.

I had been having a starting problem with my truck. I had taken it to two other garages, but as luck would have it the truck started up at both garages so they couldn't help me. A good friend recommended Steve's Garage, I stopped by the shop and was immediately impressed by the cleanliness, I was also greeted by Steve. I wasn't in my truck so I explained the problem I was having and Steve said he had an idea what the problem was and asked me if I wanted to set up an appointment. Steve explained his diagnostic cost to me and we set up an appointment. I dropped off my vehicle in the morning, received a call explaining what needed to be done, I approved the cost and picked up my vehicle that afternoon. My vehicle now starts without hesitation. When I picked my truck up, I was greeted and given a thorough print out explanation as well as a verbal explanation, by Andrea, of the work performed on my vehicle. Thank you Steve & Andrea Ron Zavala read more

I have been going to Steves for 18 years and have not been disappointed. The biggest plus for me is that he is honest! Next perk is that he is as knowledgeable. If he can't fix it he will tell you. Steve's estimates are spot on usually under. The one time he was over and did not charge because he said it was his fault. Andrea his wife is always pleasant and patient. I like supporting local businesses who give back to the community. My car that he has serviced for 18 years with over 230K is still on the road! That's says it all! read more

This is the only mechanic I would take my car to. He runs a professional shop with years of experience.

Steve's Garage is the best in town hands down. Up front and straight forward. Will be coming back for any work that needs to be done in the future. read more

Steve's garage has been taking care of mine and my family's vehicles for the last 10 years. He is honest, reasonable, and I never doubt his recommendations. read more

I have NEVER been treated so rudely in my life by someone that owns a service business. My father owned an automotive repair shop and retired well because of his excellent customer service. I was here about a month ago for a service and oil change and had a great experience. Today I called about a little problem, was told by George, who answered the phone to bring my car by and they would look at it. When I got there and tried to explain the problem to Steve, he berated me because his staff hadn't shown up, and was so incredibly rude I WILL NEVER RETURN and neither will any of my friends or colleagues who I had recommended this place to. Not sure if he just hates women, but there was no need to treat me that way. A simple "we don't have time to look at it today, please make an appointment" would have sufficed. Truly can't understand how someone stays in business this way. read more

The customer service at this shop is THE BEST! I am from out of town, my son goes to college in the Camarillo area and his car broke down. Neither of us had a clue where to take it for repairs so he asked a friend and they suggested Steve's. I dealt with Andrea over the phone and explained I had to get this done from a distance and she was so helpful, like my son and I were her only customers (I know that wasn't the case but she made us feel like it). The price was more than reasonable for the repairs. I recommend this shop, I commend this shop for the best customer service skills, and I thank them for helping my son when I could not get there to do it myself. read more

I've been coming here since they opened and have referred him to others. Steve's a very honest mechanic, which I appreciate very much and have found hard to find in the past, especially being a young woman. Timely service, nice people, and a good price. Thorough but never any pressure or surprises - I know I can trust Steve with my car! Probably why I'm at 116k miles and still running great! read more

Do not take your car here! They will rip you off! They charged me $85.00 and had my car for 2 days. They drove it all over Ventura County and put 45 miles on it. They left the gas tank empty (1/4 tank) and in the end said that they could not find anything wrong with the car. I was referred by a friend. NEVER again! read more

Steve garage has great service has been taken care of my family vehicles for years I would highly recommend it affordable reliable and friendly courteous service read more

Service was on time and on budget, but I will be trying other mechanics who are easier to communicate with before I go back to Steve. My company purchased a cargo van from my husband that has been serviced by Steve for many years. I took it in to have something adjusted that Steve had installed in the past. Steve's junior mechanic gave me a ride home, which was fantastic. He was courteous, a good listener, and clearly knows his stuff. But on almost every occasion I interacted with Steve, I was disappointed by the way I was spoken to. I definitely agree with other female reviewers who found him to be rude. My whole family has been very loyal to Steve over the years and I am bummed to be writing this review. Not the experience I expected. read more

We had some bad experiences at Hays in Camarillo, after 14 years of patronage we left, because of Mike.We were recommended Steve's Garage in Camarillo..Honest, efficient and reasonably priced. Steve's is what Hays used to be. He does what needs to be done and doesn't try to strong arm you into a bunch of unnecessary repairs. read more

I've been taking all 6 of my vehicles to Steve for at least 5 years. I think Steve is losing it. I agree with the folks who say Steve is rude sometimes. He's not rude all the time, but today was really bad. I think Steve is losing it. Not sure I'll be taking all 6 of my vehicles any longer, even tho his location is very convenient for us. read more

Steves garage is the most honest mechanic I ever ever worked with...He does what needs to be done and doesnt make up any repairs that doesnt need to be done...I am very impressed...His garage is always clean....He know his stuff...Thanx Steve read more

Great skills. Friendly staff. Steve gets right to the point when it comes to repairs so don't think he's being rude. He's matter of fact and I like that! Don't be put off by the bad car side manner. He's a great mechanic and not a doctor. read more

Worst experience of my life. Took it in for brakes and finally after 3 weeks got fed up and took back my car. It was always something, Oh I had to order parts, the car computer went out and I had to send it out for repair, the thermostat went bad, etc. always promising it would only a couple of more days or it'll be ready Friday, Monday at the latest. On and on and on. Wouldn't know or tell the truth if it bit him in the ass. Never even did the brakes read more

Steve's Garage has done minor and major service on my cars for a number of years. Steve is very knowledgeable, informative, upfront and honest. Some may find Steve to be a little dry and blunt, but I prefer my mechanic to tell me the situation straight rather than patronize and upsell services. In particular, Steve has been an invaluable resource in keeping my older (1989) car running well and on the road. I highly recommend Steve's Garage. read more

I've taken many cars to Steve's Garage over the years. He did an overall inspection and recommendation on a 1965 Ford Mustang GT I was looking to buy some years back; he did not hold back and was pretty right on about the car. He's done everything from general maintenance to major repairs on several of my cars in the past. He's currently my go-to car maintenance guy again. His prices are fair and his guys do quality work. read more

We've been take our cars to Steve's Garage for many years. Steve and his staff do a great job! They are very professional, reliable, affordable and straight forward. Highly recommended. read more

My family has taken our cars to Steve's for more than 15 years and we have always felt listened to and treated with kindness and respect. As a young woman, I'm sometimes nervous that, since I don't know anything about cars, I'll get "ripped off" and pushed to have services conducted that my car doesn't need; however, this has NEVER been the case at Steve's. Steve and his staff walks you through everything they're going to do to the car and explains why they're doing it. If I ask for his honest opinion whether or not I need to have a particular service done, he'll let me know and I have ALWAYS trusted his gut. I have NEVER felt overcharged or forced to have (extra) work done. Steve also gives great quotes on future work that are usually spot on. I will continue to drive all the way from Ventura to Camarillo because I honestly trust Steve's Garage to work on my car. read more

As an east coast transplant 3 years ago, and being a retired female, I had absolutely no idea where to bring my 1998 vehicle for service. Steve was recommended by a friend, a 30 year resident of Moorpark. My son offered sound advice, but from across the country, for me to be cautious, to not be gullible, what questions to ask and how often to bring my vehicle in. I have found Steve to be professional, responsible and very fair. Steve's wife Andrea always gives me a friendly call back and is very accommodating when it comes to appointment scheduling. In the beginning, I emailed copies of my invoices to my son, who agreed that Steve's pricing is very fair. There was no taking advantage of an older single woman for unexpected repairs, as my son had initially feared. I wouldn't even consider taking my car anywhere but to Steve, whether for a routine oil change or a new alternator. He even went the distance repairing one of my old electric window mechanisms. Is he a busy man? Absolutely. Is he honest, capable and fair? Absolutely. Is he ever rude or disagreeable? Absolutely NOT! I could not be happier with Steve's Garage. read more
