My first time coming to Sunset Automotive was a great experience. I brought my van here based on Yelp reviews and they weren't wrong. Super helpful people. I was welcomed upon arrival and felt as if I were being treated like family. I have no idea what the job should have cost me, but I felt what I was charged was reasonable. Also, the work is guaranteed. When I had a question that couldn't be answered, because it was out of their expertise, he immediately called an expert and got me an answer. Very pleased with the work that was done, and will continue to do business with them. read more

From the time I walk in to the time I leave, I appreciate this place. The customer service just can't be beat. They have taken great care of my vehicle and I have never felt taken advantage of because I'm a woman. The prices are fair and the cats in the waiting room are fun to cuddle with. The mechanics are super knowledgeable. This place makes me feel safer being on the road. Thank you Sunset Automotive!!! read more

This place will do the job right. You never get jacked around. They never try to make a couple extra bucks on you for part or later. Very honest, no bull$#%. read more

Sunset Auto is my "go to" for my auto repair needs. Courteous and knowledgeable.Helped me immensely in the past and most recently week ago. Drive away with peace of mind that your repair worries are over. Peace of mind matters read more

Great service. So far I have no complaints. They honor their word when quoting you a price.

Cannot say enough about this shop! I have been using Sunset recently but was in a bind & unable to get my car into them for a brake job before a road trip, so went to another place. Big mistake! Had to take my car to Sunset Automotive to fix the bad brake job. Their honesty, professionalism and attention to detail is superb! Never tried to upsell me on anything, in fact they saved me money by suggesting I only needed repairs to one side instead of both like I had thought. 10-10 would definitely recommend! read more

David had new brakes and rotors on my car in 1.5hrs! He's friendly and runs a clean shop!

LADIES BEWARE! Dishonest and performs unnecessary work at high mark-ups. After bringing in my vehicle due to squeaky breaks I was told I needed all 4 rotors replaced. He said (Ithink his name was Dave) the rotors were really bad and they must have been making a lot of noise. I told him they really hadn't. Dave said he would replace all 4 rotors and Pads for $700 and that he was giving me a break. He scared me enough that I told him to go ahead and do the work but to save me the rotors to look at. When I got to his shop he told me he would show me the rotors after I paid. I paid for the work and he brought me out what he said was a front rotor and a rear rotor. both had very little ware and were thick. When I showed my disapproval Dave told me "you should really change your rotors every time you change your break pads". I know that was major BS. I took one rotor with me to get the opinion of other mechanics. I was told by 2 separate mechanics that the rotor was fine. They would have just put pads on, at the very most they would have turned the rotor and not replace it. I am out $700 for a job that did not need to be done. During a pandemic where every cent I make is desperately needed this unscrupulous person does an unnecessary job that I had to pay with money I was saving for Christmas and emergencies. Next week one of the mechanics insisted that I take the car in so that a visual inspection can be done on the rotors to make sure he put new rotors on. I will update this if I find I was given anything other than brand new premium rotors. Run away from this place !! read more

My truck needed a major repair the guys at sunset automotive. They did the work in a timely manner. I will be recommending them to everyone I know. And if I have any other issues I would be going to them from now on. read more

My car is well cared and always maintained by the dealership where I bought my car. Somehow, my car over heated. Took it to the dealership and I was informed that my car would cost around eight grand to fix it. My husband decided to take my car to Sunset. They we're able to fixed my car without any hassle nor hidden cost, and less than half of the cost I was quoted for. I have been using my car for ten months now and never had any problems... Perfect!! Sunset Automotive is reliable and honest in dealing with us. We trust Sunset in any kind of car problems. We will continue to support their business and would not hesitate to refer Sunset to family and friends Thank you very much!! read more

I absolutely love this place! They don't bs you, and they are fair and honest. That is a lot coming from a women, especially because most of us are used to being ripped off by a mechanic or shop. I have a BMW and I am very picky about where I get my repairs. I will continue to bring my car here and I definitely recommend this to shop to others. Especially if you're a woman looking for a shop that is honest and affordable I suggest you go here! They won't try to take both arms and legs and they are family owned! read more

A no-brainer for auto repair. I have taken my truck to Sunset forever and the staff and service is great. I drive from the bay area to get my truck serviced at Sunset. This is an auto repair shop you can trust and count on for good work. If there is any additional problems they see with your car/truck, they will let you know but not throw the issue down your throat like most auto shops. if you wish to take care of any other issues they do so. Tay is awesome and has always done a great job. The whole crew down there have taken care of me. Check them out, you will be happy! read more

I am absolutely pleased with sunset automotive!!! I have always came a crossed auto repairs shops not fixing the problem, too pricey, or not honest. I took in my Durango in lost for words..... and they were able to give me honest reasonable prices. The front desk amazing so nice every time I call beyond polite which doesn't happen very often with auto repair shops!!!!! I even have my mom going they're now!!! read more

I love this place. Trust me, I'm VERY picky when it comes to an automotive company and their service but I've been with Sunset for years and years and they always do a great job. I drive over 2 hours for any auto issues I have (Chevy, Ford, and my daughters Mitsubishi). They take good care of all our cars and are worth the drive. Every time I see them they offer me little tips of advice to keep my car running good. Tay is always a friendly face and he is who I deal with directly when I go to Sunset. This is a confident review as a current client, you won't find any better service or a more trustworthy group working on your car. That's why I go back. Nothing has ever changed and they remain honest and straight forward. Sunset is a unique find, take your car there for any work that needs to be done. I'm certain you won't regret it. read more

These guys are top notch. I am no stranger around a car and these guys know their stuff. Their estimates are right on, their prices are fair and they go above and beyond. You can't go wrong with Sunset. read more

I have never felt like I've been givin the run around. They are straight up honest. Very good pricing because they know what they are doing. They have been in business for over 20 years and I've never had a problem with workmanship or price. Thats all you can ask for now days. Its one less thing you have to worry about in life. read more

I've been going here for a couple years now and all the guys who work here are so nice and helpful and they give you good deals on your car repairs. They are great with European cars as well, I have a Mini Cooper and the mechanic I had before gave me bad work and my family recommended these guys who took great care of my car and were completely honest and fixed everything. I highly recommend them if you not only want great service but awesome customer service. read more

I've been going to this shop for years and I have always received great service. I refer my friends and family to sunset automotive.

Very nice shop And reasonably priced. The work on our car was done quickly and efficiently. I now have my go to shop for auto repairs.

This is most hosnest place i have ever been i am.so thankful i will never bring my car ANYWHERE ELSE. Thank you so much for always fixing my car . Also the front desk is very professional. read more

After reading reviews, I decided to give this place a try. I was having trouble getting my car to start after it turned off on me as I was just getting off the freeway. Turns out that my oil was very low. They were honest with what needed to get done when I asked for a diagnosis. They didn't try to scam me out of unnecessary maintenance like other places in the past that I've been to. They had great customer service. Very reasonable price for my oil change. I'll most definitely return in the future for oil changes and other maintenance when needed. Thank you! read more

Always finds ways to take care of the customer. This is the only shop I 100% know will tell me whats really going on with my car and suggest solutions, not just upsell services. Excellent customer service read more

My family and I have been going to Sunset for 20+ years and won't take our cars anywhere else. Tay, Paul, Rich and the rest of the crew know their stuff and deliver honest, quality service everytime! I recommend this place to everyone I know. read more

Coming back from a sales trip to Fresno my starter went out in Modesto after a quick pit stop. Stranded with no tools I was forced to have it towed and quickly searched Yelp to find Sunset Automotive. Knowing a decent amount of cars i'm always hesitant with shops because some will try and put you threw the ringer - "Yeah sir, your kanutin valve and turn signal fluid is bad, that'll be about $1,200 and won't be ready till Thanksgiving.." Not Sunset, this place is legit. Matt greeted me at the counter and was super friendly and understanding. Their shop rate is inexpensive for the amount of knowledge they have. Matt was accommodating and had my car ready the next day, which saved me some cash on the rental car. I'd definitely recommend this place and i'm not even from the area! read more

Been using Matt the service manager for years and now he is here. Trustworthy place that does a great job. As a small business owner I send my fleet here for any repairs. Never had an issue and they are up front with any problems. The price is reasonable but being a good garage is their best quality. Would recommend for any auto repairs and am a repeat customer read more

I took my car to get some work done they overcharged me for my part by $200 went to another mechanic he only charged me $10 more than what the part costs good workers way overpriced. I'll never come back to this place again read more

Honest repair shop, They do not tell you a whole bunch of shit is wrong with your car just to get money. I will be a customer as long as they are in business. read more

I decided to bring my car to Sunset Automotive be looked at based on the reviews. I can definitely say it was the right choice. They were friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful. I cannot say enough good things about their customer service. We will definitely return next time we need our cars to be serviced. read more

Went on a referral to get my car checked by this place because it was running slow. They took it in the same day, checked it out and found it was my clutch. They gave me a reasonable price, fixed it and it ran like new. Great work and did it all the same day. Highly recommend these guys. And they're a family owned business! read more

Had an overheated car, with a blown head gasket, cracked exhuast manifold. Had it towed in and they went right to work on it, and now it drives better than when I first got it. Thanks you guys! read more

Anytime I have any car problems I trust these guys 100%. They are honest and wont do repairs unless needed. I have had plenty of hit & miss mechanics but Sunset has never given me false repairs. So save time, headache & money. They are accurate and do good work. My car is 10years old and they have helped me keep it in mint condition. I recommend all my friends and family to this shop. Your in good hands here. read more

This shop is AMAZING. They are concise, honest and reliable. I've been to ALOT of repair shops in my day, but once I found this place, I was done! They will do what you ask, alert you to any issues they may discover, but also advise whether you should fix it now, or whether it can wait. They go the extra mile to do the job and get it right should it be a pesky problem. I had a rebuilt engine put in my car and had to go back numerous times to get the cruise control right, but they never gave up! (By the way, all those extra visits...no charge! In fact, they gave me a handful of free oil changes to make up for it, no matter that it wasn't due to any fault of theirs). Paul, Tay, Rich, Billy, all the crew at Sunset will keep you on the road safely!! PLEASE do yourself a favor and go to Sunset. You'll be happy to find a shop that's trustworthy and Never Overcharges!! Sunset all the way~ read more

I would give them a zero stars if I could. Been coming here for some time, but they let me down. I referred my brother to them. They used his truck to "load test it" (after putting a coil in????). So that's what they say. When he picked it up it had a trailer hitch on it that wasn't there when he left it. When my brother picked it up, he noticed a boat at the shop had been moved and his truck had 37 THIRTY SEVEN additional miles on it. Before I wrote this, I went to hear for myself what happened. They said they had to tow a boat around to test the load and to drive it enough to make sure the check engine light wouldn't come on. Really??? The man at the counter said he's sorry. So am I. read more

Trustworthy and honest mechanics that pride themselves on their skills and diagnosis expertise. They are NOT parts changers like the regular big guy mechanic shops. Thanks for the help guys! read more

I love this place. We have been coming here for years. Can't beat the prices or quality of work.

Great honest service. As a woman it can be a little intimidating taking your vehicle for service to a mechanic . At Sunset Auto that wasn't at all the case.The employees were eager to assist trouble shooting the problem. Not knowing what was wrong with my car I was extremely stressed out about fixing it and what it would cost . Their professional approach and knowledge made me feel at ease . They communicated well what options were available and worked out a price that was more then fair. The facility was clean and well taken care of showing they take pride in their business.Thank you for the quality service. read more

i am a car guy have 2 classic cars i built and no one has worked on my cars for 50+ years. my timing belt on my mits eclipse and i was not able to do repairs due to surgery so i shopped around for a shop. they did a fast and professional job. showed me all the old parts and brought the job in as estimated. before they started they recommended doing the water pump at the same time while it was apart, which shows they help you before you need to spend more money. i have sent my daughter and a friend there and they both feel as i do, honest great place with no worries about your repair and very fairly priced. use this shop for your repairs as an alternative to the very expensive dealerships. mike repairs made in march 2016. reposted oct 2018: update! the timing belt tensioner is rattling after 24k, and it should be ok for well over 60k. they have a 12 month or 12k guarantee. so now the test comes for this shop, most likely cause is miss adjusted tensioner or bad part. i take it in on monday and we will see how they handle it. i will post back monday pm and let you know. mike update: they past the test with flying colors 5 stars again. took the car in and they fixed it even a year after the warranty expired and only charged me half of what it should have been. great shop great people. read more

Great service. Would highly recommend . Been taking my car there for several years and I have been pleased with there work.

Great auto shop with mechanics that know what they are doing and service writers that are honest and upfront. They fix what needs to be fixed and not a bunch of other stuff to just increase the bill. I work for an insurance company and i refer all of my clients to Sunset for their repairs. read more
