    I was so pleasantly surprised by my experience here with Sayed. Not only did he do an amazing job with my vehicle after I had taken it to several other mechanics, but he is honest and thorough. There was a small comfortable waiting room with water, magazines, and so much more than I expected, honestly. I highly recommend him and will definitely be sending more business and returning with my own vehicle. BTW his communication was above and beyond from my very first text

    Fui con el para realizar mi safety light inspección . La verdad el señor es muy buena persona y amable pero no es honesto. El no me explico lo que esa inspección significa y me revisó el carro en extremo con la excusa que mi seguridad era primero. Me dio una lista interminable de cosas a reparar en el carro mientras tanto me cobró por no pasar la inspección casi 300 dólares por inspección (pases o no). Fui a mi mecánico y repare todo en la lista . Regrese creyendo que ahora si nada me paraba y me salió con que una luz de mi carro no funcionaba, que los limpia vidrios estaban en mal estado y que mi cofre necesitaba reparación 🤦🏻‍♀️ si como lo leen además me volvió a cobrar. Pagar más de 600 dólares por no pasar más reparaciones es terrible. Claro que nunca pasarás una inspección con el porqué gana dinero cada vez que vas. Fui a otro lugar James Autocenter en Garden Grove ellos de forma inmediata me explicaron que lo que se inspeccionaría y que la hoja que traía no era parte de la inspección ósea el tipo me timo, tomo ventaja de mi. En el nuevo lugar en cuestión de 2 horas revisaron mi vehículo y me dijeron que si solo había una luz que no funcionaba ellos la podrían reparar por 20 dólares y lo hicieron . Si tienes que pasar una inspección de esta NO VAYAS con este señor porque , te sacará mil excusas y no pasarás hasta que el quede satisfecho con el dinero que gano contigo.

    I called for an uber/lyft inspection $99 dollars is crazy. He wanted to know my car year and model to charge me more when I told him my car details.

    I came to *Auto Best Smog Check* to get a smog test done, and unfortunately, my car didn’t pass. But Sayed was incredibly helpful — he didn’t just send me on my way. He took the time to explain the *BAR (Bureau of Automotive Repair) vehicle retirement program*, something I wasn’t even fully aware of. He walked me through the whole process and guided me step-by-step on how to apply and get compensated. Super knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely wants to help people. Highly recommend this shop and especially Sayed if you want honest service and expert guidance!
