I wanted only recommended Subaru oils, antifreeze, spark plugs, etc. Value followed the manufacture's recommendations, which I was very happy. The maintenance was done in a few hours. The prices are competitive, but the trustworthiness is superior. This a great company.

I was…read morereferred to Asmar's shop from another mechanic who told me that this is the place where classic cars get the TLC that they need and it has a team of mechanics who actually have the rare experience of working with vintage cars. I was impressed with the level of care and detail at every stage of the process- from a thorough inspection of the vehicle to ensuring the security and cleanliness of the shop. The communication has been very clear and I appreciate the time and effort that Luis has made in educating me in what work is truly essential for the safety and durability of the vehicle. I'm looking forward to the final outcome.

Finding an honest mechanic is hard enough, but finding one that comes to you is a game-changer. Sam…read moreand Aiden did a fantastic job replacing the front and rear rotors and pads on my 2016 Land Rover LR4. A few things that stood out: * Convenience: They performed the entire service right at my house. * Fair Pricing: Their quote was significantly better than other local shops and mechanics I checked. * Transparency: Sam (the lead mechanic) is incredibly professional and reasonable. Instead of just demanding a list of repairs, he gave me actual options and worked with me on the best path forward. No upselling, just honest advice. It's rare to find technicians who don't try to pad the bill. I'll definitely be reaching out to Sam for any future projects. Highly recommended!

What a convenience to be able to have someone come out and service my car at the house…read more Sam was the first to respond out of seven other business, and the price was fair considering the current fuel costs. A few places I drove around to scope parking were sparse, and their lots were full which is why I looked to mobile services. I got my oil changed, and so far so good. I will likely look to him and his staff for future services.

We have a older suburban that has been sitting idle for years. Occasionally we round start it and…read moredrive it down the street, but now we need to use it. The check engine light was on so we couldn't smog it. Took it up our mechanic in Santee and they found a problem with the catalytic converter. They said one side was bad and recommended Hanson's to get it fixed. I called Hanson's and was able to get an appointment for the next day. While the car was there they found another problem that was an inexpensive fix. They were able to install the cat and make the other fix the same day. Overall I am very impressed with the work, service, and advice/direction I received from Hanson's.

1 Star - Would Not Recommend…read more I went to Ed Hanson's Muffler for a simple resonator/muffler delete, basic exhaust work. This shop used to have a solid reputation, which is the only reason I chose it. Unfortunately, that no longer seems to be the case. I arrived when they opened and clearly explained that I did not want to be stuck there all day. I don't live close by, and I needed to pick up my daughter from school later. I specifically told them I was completely fine dropping the car off and coming back once it was finished if the job was going to take a while. They laughed and said that wouldn't be necessary, and that they'd be in trouble if a job like this took that long, implying it would be done quickly. Instead, the work dragged on for most of the day. I was repeatedly told it was "almost done," which kept me waiting there instead of leaving. Had they been honest upfront, I would have left and returned later without any issue. During this time, the employee working on the car moved extremely slowly, frequently stopping to socialize, smoke, eat, and take extended breaks. There was no sense of urgency and no respect for my time. Because of this, I nearly ended up late picking up my daughter from school, which was exactly what I was trying to avoid by offering to drop the car off in the first place. To make matters worse, the final result was disappointing. The piping looks sloppy and unprofessional, like basic budget muffler work, yet the price was unreasonably high for the quality delivered. Ed Hanson's may have been a respectable shop at one point, but based on my experience and many others now a days, that standard is no longer there. Don't waste your hard-earned money or your time.

WOW! WOW! WOW! 10/10 Ricardo went well above and beyond. I can't recommend him enough…read more My daughter is currently going to college at UCSD and had her starter go out. Im the kind of guy that is able to fix things like this but hard to do from so far away. It's hard to find a trustworthy mechanic especially so far away. Not only was he able to come out and diagnose the problem the same day but he was able to order parts and repair it quickly. It was a tough starter change due to the location and having to remove the manifold ect. I know because ive done it once already and its a very complex repair. The parts cost more than anticipated due to the extra gaskets and coolant needed and he still honored the original quote. We gave him extra because of all the extra work he did. He topped off her break fluid, air in the tires, gave it a once over to make sure that it was tip top shape. Also gave my daughter an education on her car. Even took pictures of all the parts and video of it running smooth. As a father it puts me at ease knowing that I can call him in the future I wish I had mechanics like him closer to me.
