Hi,
I’ve been taking my 2010 Audi TT to Letcher Bros. in Pinole for years, and I can confidently say they are one of the best automotive repair shops I’ve ever worked with. They’ve handled everything from routine preventive maintenance to complex repairs, including a challenging oil leak, water pump, thermostat, coolant fan, serpentine belt, and fuel filter transmission service. Every repair has been completed professionally, thoroughly, and correctly the first time.
Finding a shop that truly understands Audis and other import vehicles isn’t easy, but Letcher Bros. has consistently demonstrated their expertise. What sets them apart even more is their transparency and fairness. Imports can be very expensive when it comes to maintenance and Letcher Bros is as fair as it gets. They take the time to explain what needs to be done, why it needs to be done, and they never make you feel pressured. That level of honesty and communication is rare in the automotive industry.
A special thank you to Jeanette, who has been my primary point of contact over the years. She is an absolute professional and is the heart of the customer experience at Letcher Bros. She’s organized, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cares about every customer who walks through the door. Mike Letcher and his entire team have built a culture centered around integrity, quality workmanship, and exceptional service. They truly make every customer feel like a VIP.
I live in Sausalito, and people often ask why I don’t find a repair shop closer to home. My answer is simple: trust. When you find a shop that consistently delivers honest recommendations, outstanding workmanship, and treats you with respect, distance becomes irrelevant.
In fact, my confidence in Letcher Bros. extends beyond my personal vehicle. For the past five years, they’ve also serviced the fleet vehicles for my employer, where I serve as both Branch Manager and Fleet Manager. We transitioned away from a well-known dealership because Mike and his team consistently provided better service, communication, reliability, and value. They’ve become our trusted fleet maintenance partner, and that decision has proven to be the right one.
If you’re looking for an auto repair shop that’s honest, highly skilled, well-managed, and genuinely cares about its customers, give Letcher Bros. an opportunity. They are truly a hidden gem in the Bay Area. Shops like this are hard to find.
After working with many mechanics over the years, I can honestly say Letcher Bros. feels like family. They’ll continue to earn my business for both my personal vehicles and our company’s fleet for years to come. Special thanks Mike, Jeanette and team really appreciate your efforts, hard-work!
Special shout out to the candy dish in the front with all the sweet goodies over the years.
Highly recommended—without hesitation.
