This is a rather unique review based on my wife's experience. We had noticed the our Jaguar F Type…read moreS was having problems with acceleration to the point that it became a major concern. Though we have had a great experience with Galpin Jaguar, we wanted to spare a long drive to the valley and risk damage to our car. We called our regular repair shop (Auto Pros II in Rosamond; another great shop by the way) and were told that they did not not work on that type of European hardware. Mario, the owner of Auto Pros II, recommended European Auto Specialists. We immediately called them but was unable to make contact with them. I attributed this to the Holiday season. Amanda did call soon after and an appointment was set. Long story short; my wife took the car in, and after a short time was diagnosed with a very bad case of rodent damage to the wiring. Under the recommendation of European Auto Specialists we set an appointment with Galpin Jaguar for the repair. Amanda and Trevor never tried to hard sell my wife anything. Could they have done he job? Yes, they could have, but felt due to liability constraints it would be better at Galpin. They are honest people, and even though we were not able to get the work done by them we will definitely be using them in the future. We would trust our Jaguar in their hands anytime. As the jazz great Mile Davis once said, "sometimes the most important notes are those that aren't played." In the case of European Auto Specialist, the most important wrench was the one not turned. Can't say enough good about them.

I had a BMW Over 4,000 dollars later I realized I had been taken advantage of . What's really sad is that you may get a person one time but now I have a brand new Mercedes and you'll never get any more business from me. The name of the game in any business is repeat business.

Very impressed with both the work and the integrity of this shop. I brought them a Subaru with an…read moreintermittent transmission fault that had triggered several warning lights. They spent 2 1/2 days trying to duplicate and isolate the problem, thoroughly checked the external wiring harness, and tested the suspected speed sensor. Everything checked out and the transmission continued to operate normally. Rather than guess or start replacing parts at my expense, they installed a used but known-good speed sensor they had available and told me to drive it and come back if the problem returns. At that point they can continue troubleshooting with at least two possible causes eliminated. Sometimes the best repair shop is the one willing to say, "We can't reproduce the problem, the transmission is functioning normally, and we don't want to charge you for work we can't justify." Five stars earned.

I am writing this review to warn future customers about my unacceptable experience with Affordable…read moreTransmission and Auto Repair Center regarding an ATRA nationwide warranty repair. Background and Initial Service: My vehicle's transmission was rebuilt a few months ago by a different authorized ATRA shop. Due to a recent move, the original shop authorized me to bring the car to this affiliate location, a 30-mile drive from my new home, for a warranty diagnosis. Upon drop-off on 11/18/2025, the front desk employee immediately became cold and dismissive when I mentioned the words "warranty repair." The Issue & The Refusal to Diagnose: The problem is specific and reproducible: when the car is cold, driving downhill causes the transmission to shift into what feels like neutral. Pressing the gas results in rising RPMs but no movement, forcing me to shut the engine off and restart it to re-engage the drive. After two days, I received a call informing me they could not reproduce the issue and were refusing to work on the car. I explained to Miguel that the condition requires a cold start and a specific downhill coast, asking them to try again or keep the car longer. He flatly refused any further testing, stating they were done with the vehicle. Integrity Violation and Fraudulent Documentation: Since they refused to honor the warranty, I requested a written reason for the denial of service, which is standard procedure. Miguel went to review my paperwork. When he returned, he presented a form and demanded I sign it before he would provide any written explanation. This form was an explicit waiver where I would acknowledge that the issue I claimed was not present and that their testing proved my claim was false. I refused to sign a document that was contrary to reality, as the transmission issue is demonstrably still present. The Threat and Escalation: Because I refused to sign the false waiver, Miguel refused to give me any written denial and escalated the situation. He told me he wouldn't help me anymore because I was "not a nice person." When I stated I would write an accurate review of this unprofessional experience, he raised his voice and began threatening me: Threats of litigation. Explicit threats of physical harm to myself and/or my property at my home. Threats to contact my employer to have me fired. I immediately took my keys and walked to my car, with Miguel following me out of the office, continuing to curse and issue threats. This behavior is far beyond poor customer service; it is menacing, unprofessional, and a direct failure to honor the ATRA warranty program. The shop refused to perform due diligence, attempted to force me to sign a false legal document, and threatened my physical safety. Avoid this business at all costs.

I have to admit, it saved me time and gas from having to drive to a BMW dealership service center. The repair was reasonably priced as well so it was a win-win situation for me. Jose was very resourceful and easy going. If I should have any other issues with my BMW, I will be reaching out to him.
