A A Smog & Auto Repair - San Bernardino (CA)

DellaBlue Lucatero I was told by AAA my battery and alternator were good. So I called Tony thinking it was something electrical. Tony came the same day, I explained him the problem I was having. He said it was the battery. He went to buy the battery for me, changed the terminal, took my car to the car wash for a very low price. I highly recommend him. Not only is he affordable, honest, and reliable, he’s also a very nice guy. Thank you Tony for your honesty. God bless you!!!!

Miguel Hernandez STAY AWAY!!! The AC on my car needed to be repaired. A $99 diagnostic was performed. After the diagnostic was performed they determined the compressor needed to be replaced. An additional $1000 was payed for the compressor replacement. After the replacement I was now being told that further work needed to be performed. After the replacement of the compressor the AC was still not in working order. They were now asking for an additional $1000 to replace all AC system parts. I decided not to proceed with further work. If a proper, honest, thorough diagnostic was performed they could have presentment me an upfront price to correct all that is needed or I could have at least been given a warning that the compressor was a starting point and further work may be needed. It is also not right to keep the money I payed for work that did not prove to be the solution to my problem. If a plumber came to your house and asked for $1000 to fix your plumbing issue and what they recommended did not fix the issue would you expect your money back ? Yes ! After more money was asked of me I felt uncomfortable with their process. I may not be able to get my money back but I can at least warn others about coming here. The guy claims he has 40 years of experience and expensive equipment. Well, it looks like all that experience and equipment isn’t being put to good use and is obsolete when no care is given to their customer. I hope he sleeps good at night, running a dishonest practice. When I think about providing or contracting a service I always think to myself “Is this somewhere or someone I would trust dealing with my grandma?” AA Affordable Auto is a hard no. I should have looked at reviews before coming here but it also looks like I’m not the only one. This seems to be a pattern with their customers. I was told and given the same responses the bad reviews talk of. So like I was told “Take it to someone else then”, I definitely will be :)

Chris Miranda Had them install 4 tires on my F250, great service

Roman Rios I came here for an estimate. The place looks like it does a lot of work. The guy who worked there was really cool. Looking forward to bringing my car here. He seemed very knowledgeable and clear. I have not had the repair done yet. So stay tuned for future review.

Garth George Bill is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He will go beyond normal business practices to ensure proper vehicle operations.

Jose Gutierrez Took my truck in for a power steering fluid leak they found the problem fast and fixed my truck fast, they made it very easy for me to be back on the road with no problems Andy and the gentleman working there are very friendly and professional u surely will be stopping by on the next car issue the comes up.

Wendy Bermúdez They simply make your dream come true! Excellent service, quality and professionalism!!!

Ru I recently tried out this mechanic for the first time after my usual shop couldn’t pinpoint where my coolant was leaking on my 95 Firebird. From the start, he went above and beyond—not only diagnosing and fixing the leak but also addressing other necessary repairs along the way to ensure my car was in top shape. The whole process took about a week, but that’s because it was a big job, and he was incredibly thorough with testing and making sure everything was done right. Upon pickup, he meticulously walked me through the work he completed, explaining why each fix was necessary and what he had noticed during the repairs. It’s rare to find a mechanic this meticulous and transparent. I’m not someone who takes car maintenance lightly—I believe if you take care of your car, it’ll take care of you. That’s why I was more than okay with the price estimate, because I knew my car was in great hands. He provided honest fair pricing, and given the quality of work, I have no complaints. What really stood out was the level of communication - before, during, and after everything was all said and done. Throughout the week, he kept me updated with phone calls, texts, sending me videos and giving detailed explanations of what he was working on and why, which really gave me a lot of confidence in his work, and peace of mind. Overall, this was a five-star experience. My car came back to me better than before, and I’ll definitely be returning in the future. HIGHLY recommend!!!!! ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Thanks Ishmael
