Chuck Paradis To my surprise. It was a great experience. I pass by this shop daily in my PT Cruiser without giving it a second look only because I was under the impressing they did minor automotive work such as oil changes and such. My normal mechanic is on vacation and my Cruiser suddenly started running terribly. I pulled into this shop and was greeted in a very professional manner. After a quick diagnostic. He found the problem and made the repairs within the same day. He returned the replaced parts only to find that he used the best replacement parts the market had to offer at a reasonable price. I recommend and would refer others to him.

I Dream of Cleaning LLC DAVE HAS BEEN THE BEST AUTO MACHANIC AROUND. VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND HIGHLY QUALIFIED. I SUPPORT HIS BUSINESS 100% HE KEEPS IT REAL . I TAKE ALL MY VEHICLES TO DC.

Jesse Mills I had a grinding noise in the front end. Turned out it was the wheel bearing. They replaced it and checked everything else before leaving. Happy with the service.

Mike Padua I have been working with Ali or YEARS. He is an extremely upstanding and dedicated person and his work is always A++. When going to his shop, you will be sure to have the work done the correct way the first time. He will always tell you exactly what needs to get done and is very knowledgeable in all vehicles. If you are in need of any auto repairs, do not hesitate to reach out to him and his shop. They are very efficient and communication is always on point. Thank you again Ali for all that you have done!

Chuck Goettsche Ive never written a single review before. I guess it takes a lot to impress me. Well, I got to say I am very, very impressed with Magallanes Auto Repair. I needed to replace the engine on my 1997 Toyota T-100 Pickup truck. This was a big decision for me, to invest so much in a 28-year-old truck, but if you know trucks, you know this is a special truck. Having lived in California for 50 years, I discussed this repair with two of my former favorite mechanics, and on the basis of a recommendation from AAA, I talked to Magallanes. The shop manager and the front office staff treated me with respect and extreme patience as I had many, many questions about the scope of this project. My confidence in their competence grew as I learned they had been in business for decades and I appreciated that most of the workers were mature (like me) and for example I was told the mechanic who would be working on my truck had been doing this work for 40 years. Well, after much careful thought, they got the job. I can honestly say it was one of the better decisions Ive made in my life. Throughout the project, the front office kept me informed at each step of the way. As long as I was replacing the engine, I wanted to make everything right with the truck so I added service items and new front brakes. When the work was complete and I went to pick up my truck, I was delighted to learn the work came in $200 under the estimate. Not only was the work done on budget in a timely fashion, but they did extra work. It was the little things...the handbrake was adjusted, a tail light was replaced, a future likely problem with the mechanical linkage of the clutch pedal was repaired - everything was improved while my truck was in their care. If youve read this far, youre youre getting the idea that I love my truck, and I do, but I also love the people at Magallanes. Whether its routine service or a major repair I strongly recommend that you go talk to these people. Talk to Adriana or Juana in the front office, talk to Alberto the shop manager and Im sure you will come away with the feeling of confidence and trust that made me choose them for my big repair. Tell them Chuck with the T100 sent ya.

Big Anti One of my favorite experiences with a mechanic. Marvins a good dude doing good business. Pricing seems better than fair and he communicated with me periodically with updates until the work was done. Ill be back

Jorge Espinoza Im grateful to Don José. Hes very good service, trustworthy, and his prices are very reasonable. I recommend him.

Jessica Hassan I highly recommend this body shop! Andy and his team are amazing, great at their craft and customer service. They take pride in their work and took great care of my car and even rushed parts in to get it fixed as fast as possible since I didn’t have a rental. So thoughtful.

Jen T I’ve been bringing my cars here for many years and now my kids do too! I trust these guys 100%. They are honest and do great quality work. I highly recommend them.
