I had my car worked on just now. I am not going to get into the scope of what was done. but Danny did it for over 3 times less than what was quoted at other shops. This is my first time meeting the man, but he seems to have a very honest, down-to-earth persona. Some of his pictures indicates that the shop is a sponsor for various community efforts, and he really just doesn't seem to be the kind of guy that goes after money. read more

I am a new customer to Tri Auto and my experience with them could not have been any better. They truly justify all of the positive reviews previously written about them. Yes, they are extremely busy but again that only goes to show the quality of service they provide. I am most appreciative of Danny's honesty. He would rather gain my business for the long run rather than profit off of me in the short run. I brought in my overheated car not knowing what the issue was. Danny analyzed the situation and informed me that the radiator cap broke. This was a simple fix and my car has been running well ever since. Thank you Danny for this pleasant experience! You will definitely be the first place I go next time I have any car related issues. read more

I have a problem with my car. Whenever I drive it to the freeway and hit 60 miles an hours there's a humming sound, first I went to this Ramona tire at Euclid and was told I would pay $150 just to check what's wrong with my car but if they fix it then I don't have to pay for that $150 check up but I didn't buy it so one day I saw this on yelp and all the reviews are good so I went there and the owner if I'm not mistaken was the one who helped me, I told him about the problem and we drove around a few blocks just to hear the humming sound, I told him about the humming sound when it hit 60 miles an hour, he didn't hesitate to hit 60 miles to hear the humming sound and mind you we were on the streets not freeway, then we came back at his shop and he inspect my tire and found out my rare right tire is the problem, he told me to replace it and he moved on to his next client. He did not charge me, I was surprised! This man will go above and beyond just to help you and he went the extra mile to help me. I highly recommend it guys. THANK YOU SIR. read more

I have had all my cars repaired at this auto shop. Awesome service with good prices. Daughter handles quotes, very honest when vehicle will be finished with repairs. Keep up the good work. read more

I will only take my two Toyota Corollas to Tri-Auto. The best, most honest mechanics around. They are always busy, always fast, always able to fix problems so they don't come back and do it for less than anyone else. Danny has some good connections too, if you need parts or services that he doesn't offer, he'll refer you to some other good people. Tri-Auto's the best! read more

By far, the most honorable mechanic I have ever had an experience with. He went above and beyond not just to make sure my car was running safely for my long road trip but he also took the time to teach me how to put snow chains on my vehicle. Danny, you have restored my hope in humanity and the integrity of honoring your trade!! read more

Danny is the most honest mechanic. He is Toyota/Honda certified mechanic. Prices are reasonable. We have been taking our cars to Tri-Auto for over 4 years. Best mechanic in Chino read more

I'm always a bit surprised when a mechanic has a 5 star rating on yelp but after taking in my car to Tri Auto twice I can see what all the hype is about! I took my car in for a transmission service and oil change - simple services, but I've been looking for a consistent mechanic to go to and boy have I found the best! Prices are unbeatable in comparison to all the other places I've been to and Danny's such a nice and honest guy. He's a marathon runner and we had a great convo about running and I could tell right off the bat that this man is dedicated to everything he does. I recommend him to everyone looking for an honest mechanic who won't upsell you or rip you off (there are too many of those nowadays). So happy to have found a consistent and reliable mechanic - I'll be coming here until he retires!! (Hopefully never haha) read more

This is a great auto shop. Very accommodating. Would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and honest shop.

I cannot thank Danny enough for his service and patience today. My elderly parents called me hysterical that their 2005 Prius wouldn't start (twice). The Glendora Toyota dealership quoted $1400 for various repairs. Having no clue, I immediately searched on Yelp and found Tri Auto. Danny was very patient with my parents. After answering all of their questions, inspecting the car, and testing the battery he concluded there was nothing wrong with the car! No charge. He just got a customer for life. read more

It's just too bad you can only give 5 Stars because Tri Auto is a 10 establishment. Danny is not only the most fair and honest mechanic I know, but he is a great human being. My mom who knows nothing about cars had been taking her car there and he has helped her without even once trying to upsell or cheat her. Thank you Danny! NOTE: Call before you go, I don't think he works on domestic cars. Specializes in Toyota, Honda, Nisssn, etc. read more

Danny at Tri-Auto is the Best Mechanic ! He's Honest. Danny repairs all our cars. He does not push unnecessary repairs. read more

Danny is the one of the most honest mechanics I've had work on my cars. My truck was towed from my house, not wanting to start. Danny received my truck at his shop and was able to diagnose within an hour. I get a honest phone call from him stating that my truck was out of fuel. Lol long story short he could had easily made something up to gouge me like every other mechanic does make things up to charge for repairs not needed. And that's why I strongly recommend Danny !!!!! read more

Danny is an honest mechanic who cares about his customers. He is always willing to welcome you even if you don't have an appointment. I recommend Tri Auto to all my friends and family. read more

He is very trustworthy and does the best he can. Since he's very well known, he can get busy at times but that shouldn't turn you away. He will find time for you the next day if he's busy depending on the job. read more

Been going here for years, Danny and his team do a great job every time! I recommend them all the time to family and friends

Just got off the phone with Danny. So disappointed in how I was just treated that I created an account and am posting my first review because I was treated so poorly. Walked into his shop 4 days ago requesting service. I was told they didn't have the part but would order it. No problem. So they took my name and number and told me I would be notified when the part arrived so I can bring in the car. Never heard back. Called today and Danny answered. He told me the part came in days ago. I told him that no one called me. He then proceeded to tell me that he doesn't call people, he's too busy for that. I then asked why someone took my information if that was the case. He was irritated at my question and told me again that he has far too many customers and doesn't have the time to be calling any of them back for part arrivals. If I would have been told this up front there wouldn't be an issue. But I was told I would be contacted and when I wasn't, he was irritated WITH ME. If you can't provide a service as basic as phone call, then you have no business with me. Good day. read more

Definitely the best mechanic I've been to. Danny and his guys are so committed to customer service and satisfaction. Just an all around great mechanic shop. Highly recommend. read more

Best experience ever!!!!! I had to leave to work and had my car towed. Danny took in my car and did everything over the phone, all while I was at work!! I showed up the next morning and my car was ready!! Super fast and friendly!! Will continue to bring my car here as well as refer anyone I know. Truly deserving of the 5 stars! read more

Very honest person. Great customer service. Definetly wont ask you to do something to your car if you dont really have to. This is probably the reason why he has a lot of customers. You have to come in before the shop opens to be sure that you wont wait too long. Not expensive too! read more

Thank you Tri Auto for taking care of my wife's Honda CRV. She was recently quoted $900 at Pep Boys to replace the rotors and brakes. Tri Auto refined the front rotors and replaced all the brakes today for $290. A very honest repair shop and you've won a customer for life! read more

Best honest, knowledgeable, and affordable mechanic I've come by my whole life. Highly reccomend Danny!

Rarely do I leave reviews; may this fact emphasize my enthusiasm. I've been taking my car to Danny for minor repairs and oil changes for a little over a year now and each time has been a valuable experience. Earlier today, I brought my car to Danny to diagnose my "check engine" light as well as a minor brake problem. Later in the day, Danny explained the issue(s) in detail, recommended I see a specialized mechanic, and charged me nothing in the process. This is the epitome of integrity in business. Capitalistic cutthroats have made easy prey of leery consumers. If you live in the Chino area and are in need of an honest mechanic for your auto repair needs, this is the guy. read more

Awesome service! I found this business on yelp and gave him try when I needed my HID lightbulb replaced. Excellent and fast service! Thank you! Will use this business for any needs in the future. read more

Danny is an expert on his field. I know for a fact that when other shops are stuck with a problem they go to him for advice. I know because I have done it. I work at Gabriel's in Chino and he has given me great tips for me to satisfy our customers. Its like MD's consulting, right? read more

I drive an hour just to get to this place - that's how worth it it is! Danny is trustworthy and dependable. Best place hands down!

I can't express how thankful I am for you guys taking care of me today. I called in the morning to inquire about fixing the underside of my car from an oil change that I believe the screw came loose from. It was dragging when I drove and with a toddler in tow, I need my car to be safe. I arrived when there were a good amount of people, with my little one and I was out of there within a half hour or so while you generously fixed what I could not on my own. Very thankful and I'm very sure I found my new auto shop :) read more

The best mechanic in Chino/Inland Empire! Danny Arteaga is not only a certified Toyota mechanic but he's honest, fair and is a great guy! The mechanics he's hired are knowledgeable and informative. They really know how to treat people at Tri Auto! I have been taking my cars here for years. My parents bring their cars to Danny. I don't hesitate sending anyone I know who needs work done on their cars to Tri Auto! read more

Tri-Auto earned my business today. I was having issues with my truck. Drove it in to Tri Auto and explained to the mechanic the issue I was having with my vehicle. He, without hesitation, knew exactly what was wrong with it and fixed it on the spot. Mechanic was very professional and courteous. I will be returning to Tri auto for all future services. Thank you. read more

We needed a new compressor for one of our cars. I called several shops and found that Danny was quick to answer any and All questions I had. He always answered the phone. Danny is the owner of Tri Auto. if your looking for honest,reliable and trustworthy mechanic, look no more. This is the place! We will continue to come here for all of our auto needs. read more

I love this place. They are respectful and affordable. Danny is very helpful. He does a get job along with his coworkers. They provide great customer service! read more

I've been going to the same mechanic for years, but after expanding his business, the prices started going through the roof and the quality was not there; Therefore, I decided to come here. Honest people, reasonable prices, and good work! read more

Very honest and loads of experience!! I'm so glad to have this mechanic so close. I will recommend him 100 times over and will back up my review 1000%. read more

Danny and team are the best out there. They take care of your car as if it were their own. The bad reviews here are BS, seems like they are working for a competing business, although there is no competition because this is the best place to go. Everything is priced very reasonable. I was being charged an arm and a leg at the dealership for an oil change. Danny tells it like it is and will make sure you get quality customer service. I read that people are complaining about the individual attention they don't feel they receive when speaking with Danny but he's got a busy business he is running and if you need that much attention, then go back to the overpriced dealership you bought your car. read more

Great customer service... honest place have been coming here now for the past 3 years !! Danny is the best super knowledgeable Toyotas, Hondas and Lexus!!! read more

Well, spoke too soon about these guys. A week after getting my clutch done here, I started having electrical problems, my instrument panel went completely dead and my truck slowly petered out and stopped running. I know the signs of a bad alternator, and am capable of fixing that myself, so I contacted Danny about purchasing a new alternator from him to install on my own. I performed the repair, seemingly fixed the problem, and the next day my battery was dead. Knowing that there were electrical issues beyond the alternator at this point, I purchased a new battery and tried to call Danny, only to find out they're closed on Saturday. Needing a fix as soon as possible and believing the issue was unrelated to my last repair, I took my truck to JC Auto Electric in Montclair. Upon returning to pick up my truck, the first thing they asked me was if anyone had worked on my transmission lately. I told them yes, someone had indeed. They informed me that a wire harness had been improperly reinstalled and had melted on my exhaust manifold. We're three hundred and sixty dollars deep now, folks. All for one of Danny's employees' mistakes. Upon returning to inform him of this, I was told that this was his staff's incompetence was basically my fault, and that I should have returned to him for the fix even though it seemed totally unrelated and they don't specialize in electrical, and even that the symptoms that I saw with my own two eyes couldn't have possibly happened. Yeah, that's what customers like hearing: what you saw never happened. He said "What do you want me to do about it?", like it's not obvious that I'd like to be reimbursed for his mistake that cost me almost four hundred bucks. Even a partial reimbursement for the parts I was forced to buy for this cutting of corners would have made a huge difference. Let's just say that the nominal price for the labor here was more than offset by the money I had to spend in parts and labor to fix a mistake that supposedly couldn't cause the problems that I saw with my own two eyes. Proceed with caution if you give this guy your business. I thought really highly of him until he pulled this act on me, would drive from my place in LA to see him. No more. read more

DONT COME HERE! LAZY MECHANIC DANNY ORTEGA THAT WONT EVEN GET UP TO CHECK OUT YOUR CAR. I came in with a cracked header on my Scion xB. The mechanic never got off his chair to check out my header he just said that he can't do it. He gave me a long story on how his last job with a installing Scion xB headers was really hard to do. I was waiting in the hot office listening and waiting for him to get up and check out my car. For a place that specializes in TOYOTA their unqualified to fix a header in a scion. Don't waste your time like I did and don't come here for their services. 1 STAR FOR LAZINESS AND FAILING TO CHECK OUT THE ISSUE BEFORE RUNNING INTO CONCLUSIONS. read more

Danny Arteaga, owner of Tri-Auto, is the most honest mechanic you'll ever meet. If he can fix it he'll do it at a super reasonable price or he'll tell you what the next best thing to do is, whether recommending another mechanic or telling you to look for needed parts online to save money. If the car doesn't need any work he'll tell you. He specializes in Toyota, Lexus, & Honda...but he's worked on all my cars no matter the make for over 5 yrs. I wouldn't take my car anywhere else unless he recommended it. read more

Danny is most straight forward and honest mechanic . My sienna battery has corroded( real bad) and all the other guys were giving me estimates that it will be expensive and it will take couple of hours to fix it . Danny checked the car and fixed the whole thing in 30 minutes along with the replacement terminal . He did not try to up-sell anything. He just did his work . I just walked into the shop looking at Yelp reviews and this was well worth it . I am going to go to him again for my Sienna . read more

Danny is a great, honest person who will tell you what you need and save you money. I don't usually give mechanic shops good reviews unless they really impress me. Danny sets a great example for other auto shops to follow. read more
