Great price From the…read moremoment I contacted B&C Auto Repair, I was treated with nothing but kindness, professionalism, and respect. My first conversation was actually with Corey's mother, who was answering the phones at the time. She made me feel like I was talking to family. During our conversation, she shared that B&C Auto Repair has been serving customers for three generations and that her son, Corey, now proudly carries on that legacy. After speaking with Corey, it became immediately clear where he learned his exceptional customer service. He was patient, knowledgeable, honest, and genuinely took the time to answer every question I had without ever making me feel rushed. In today's world, that level of personal attention is rare. I brought my 2024 Ford F-250 Lariat Ultimate to B&C for suspension work, engine upgrades, and several aftermarket modifications, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. The technicians, Matt and Stephen, were just as friendly, professional, and knowledgeable as Corey. Even while they were busy working on my truck, they took the time to explain the work being performed, answer my questions, and made sure I understood every step of the process. That kind of customer service and transparency is hard to find. What impressed me even more was what happened after the work was completed. Corey stood behind everything they had done. If there was anything that needed to be adjusted or fine-tuned, he didn't hesitate to make it right. That level of integrity and commitment to customer satisfaction speaks volumes about the character of this business. The team at B&C Auto Repair is worth every penny. You're not just paying for parts and labor; you're investing in decades of experience, expert craftsmanship, and a team that genuinely cares about delivering the highest quality work. Whether you're looking for aftermarket suspension systems, diesel performance upgrades, maintenance, or a complete custom truck build, this is the shop you want working on your vehicle. I will absolutely be returning to B&C Auto Repair for all of my future diesel, suspension, and performance needs. If you're looking for honest people, exceptional workmanship, and customer service that truly goes above and beyond, I highly recommend B&C Auto Repair. You won't be disappointed.

I had such a refreshing experience here. As a female who knows nothing about cars, I know I'm an…read moreeasy target to get ripped off. I was told I needed full break pad and rotor replacement on all 4 brakes at different "highly rated" Poway shop; I was quoted $1100 for this. I got a second phone quote from B&C for the same service at half the cost. When I took my car in, they were honest, told me I still had 50% of my front brake pads left and only need to replace my back ones for a literal fraction of the cost. I'll be back for all future car things, including oil changes!

But if I had trusted this shop, I would have given them between $2600-4000 for work that was NOT needed. First off, I was lured in by an Instagram ad that offered me a detail included with an oil change. Sadly, I learned this was too good to be true!!! This shop is not very close to me, so I took about a half day off work to go to this oil appointment, only to be told the marketing person "messed up" and it wasn't really a detail but just a car wash, but they would "do me a favor" and hook it up. Well, they didn't hook it up. I can wash my car far better than they did. And a detail? They didn't even vacuum or dust it. Ridiculous. Next, they tried upselling me at every turn (starting with the detail they tried to sell me until I reminded them it was supposed to be included). They did an "inspection" and quoted me for all kinds of work I didn't need and/or couldn't afford. A Cabin air filter I had just done myself weeks prior. Brakes another shop did 2 months prior. Then some suspension stuff that seemed serious (see pic) - which stressed me out for months, until I finally had saved $ to take it to another shop... (Because, NO WAY I was getting work done at this place after all of the red flags.) Well guess what? Just recently I took it to a different (actually trustworthy) shop. The owner put it on the rack. Came back in with an weird expression as if to say, "you're not going to believe this." I had no idea what was about to happen. I was dreading how costly it might be, as I had delayed the repair by months. He had me walk under my car with him to see these supposedly cracked and leaking tie-rod boots and other issues... and everything was IN PERFECT CONDITION. Which makes sense bc my car has only about 50k miles. So the second shop sent me away without paying a penny, and I'll be going back there to get my brake pads done when they're *actually* due to be done. Shops like Oside Motorsports are why we can't trust mechanics. It's truly sad. I can't imagine if I performed my job this way, trying to unethically take ppl's hard-earned money, just because my customers have little choice but to trust me. It's shameful.

He showed me exactly what will be done and gave me the best price. It is crazy how many other "mechanics" tried to take advantage of me because I am young. ALMOST all of them used the "SAAB" no longer makes parts so their parts are expensive. I am aware that SAAB no longer produces vehicles and I am fully aware that you will not be using SAAB parts, so why are you stating SAAB parts are expensive and are the reason the cost is high if SAAB parts aren't being used. Matt is literally the only trustworthy mechanic in all of Vista. He is my go to from now on! HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU GO TO HIM BEFORE GIVING OTHERS OPPORTUNITIES TO MESS YOU OVER. THANK YOU MATT, see you Wednesday!

As a result, I've made several visits to North County Auto Service for different issues. One of the first things that stood out to me was the professionalism of Mike and Wrex in the front office. They're straightforward, friendly, and honest about what your vehicle needs, even when having the work done at their shop isn't necessarily your best option. I also appreciated the way they treated me and my vehicle. My Traverse is pushing 100K and definitely has its share of wear and tear, but they've always been respectful and even complimentary about it. There was never any of the condescending attitude you sometimes get when bringing an older vehicle into a shop. More importantly, I trust their diagnoses. I've brought the Traverse in more than once expecting an expensive repair, only to have them tell me otherwise. One time I was convinced the air-conditioning system needed to be replaced. They diagnosed it properly and determined it simply needed to be recharged correctly, saving me from a much more expensive repair. Are they the cheapest shop around? Probably not. But I've learned that the cheapest repair can become the most expensive one if it isn't done correctly the first time. With North County Auto Service, I feel confident that I'm getting an honest diagnosis and quality work. They've earned their excellent reputation. If you're someone who gets nervous about taking your car to a mechanic because you're worried about being taken advantage of, this is the kind of shop you want to find.
