Dennis is the most honest guy around. I believe you will not find a better mechanic in San Diego county. I have been taking my car here for a few years now and I will not go anywhere else. Recently my check engine light came on and it did not cost me a thing because it was caused by a part that he had replaced a year before and it was still under warranty. He could have charged me and I would not have known the difference. Most places charge you just to diagnose the issue. I made the mistake of taking my car to get an oil change some place else just because it was out of convenience at the time and I was told I needed certain things done that would cost around $500 but when I asked Dennis about these things he said I did not need any of those things done. He and his wife are people of great integrity. Most women are hesitant trusting mechanics because some can be upselling stuff you do not need. You will never have to worry about that with Dennis.

The guy that runs the place seems like a straight up laid back guy. No excuses or over fees that are unnecessary like most other shops. He's very understanding and helpful, I'm very glad I went to this place first.

Great crew with honest pricing. Has kept my 1973 IH Scout running over and over despite it being a pile of junk. I keep going back over and over with satisfied service each time. -Justin
