General Auto Repair - Salinas (CA)

JA 090 I assume youre reading these reviews to determine whether those places can do a great job on body work. Let me tell you not to look any further because you found the right place!! I own a 2000 Honda Prelude Type SH and I was devastated when I found out the tow truck company that was responsible for transporting my car to another shop damaged my drivers side fender while under their care. It had such a deep scratch and the tow truck company told me it would be better to just replace it but parts for my car are extremely rare to find and all my body panels are the original parts and I didnt want a replacement. A co-worker of mine recommended me this place and as soon as it got delivered to this shop they spent weeks trying to find another fender (which didnt surprise me) and finally just decided to repair the original fender which was exactly what I wanted. I even asked them to repair the front bumper and restore the headlights since they were already damaged and faded from the previous owner of my car. A week later, I was filled with excitement and happiness when I saw my cars fender not only repaired, but the bumper and the headlight were also repaired/restored and looked brand new. I even got new door seals straight from the Honda dealership. On top of that, they had a mobile detailing van clean my car inside and out, which was just the cherry on top. Hector even came to the shop on his day off for a brief moment on the weekend to open the shop so I can pay for my portion of the repairs and take my car home that same day which was SUPER nice and chill of him to do! So please, take my word when I say these guys really dont mess around and do an amazing job at what they do and everyone there is very professional. I was afraid of other people working on my car because of how rare it is and felt like I couldnt trust anyone. I gave this place a chance, and I do not regret it one bit. You should definitely give this place a chance too. These guys make it right and really make you feel like youre important to them. You will definitely not be disappointed with the experience and your results!!

Tim Junod Best mechanic shop that I have been too with reasonable prices. This week, they worked on my 2022 Winnebago View on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 to change tires, alignment, engine oil change, engine air filter, and cabin air filter. Well knowledged on all makes and models of vehicles. They have also worked on my Honda CRV and Ford E-250.

Abel Cruz They smogged my 93 geo metro. They were very quick and meticulous. They were not afraid to ask me questions about the car. They have the tools and intellect to look up emission label diagrams unlike GOMEZ AUTO REPAIR. Highly recommend going here!

Steven Nguyen Howard from All Americans Mufflers referred me to George and the first moment meeting George, I knew I would have a lifetime mechanic. George was very friendly and honest. George charges a reasonable price to repair my truck if not cheaper than other places and his work is top notch. He would not mind to go out of his way to make sure my truck runs perfect. Thank you George & Junior.

Matt Smith Ziggy is a good person to deal with! Hes my guy when I need auto work.. very great prices and good person in general.

Alexander Diaz Very good service. He explains in detail what is wrong with your car. He gives you the option of bringing the parts or he can bring the parts. He is a very knowledgeable gentleman in automotive mechanics.

Matthew Ennis Excellent service with a smile ! Edgar was very helpful and knowledgeable in the problems I was having , fixed then in no time and I was back on the road A+++ service and affordable! They care about the customer , highly recommended

robb rainville Fast service on our RV

Lexie Nishihara My family has been taking their cars to European Auto for years and they do not disappoint. They are very honest and will not rip you off. I took my car in for an issue and Juan determined what the issue was. He recommended I take it to the BMW dealership because he was almost positive it was covered under warranty. I thanked him for being honest as it was under warranty. I cannot recommend them enough, as they will get your car in and out and do a great job!

Morales Cris (Madam_0jitos) Their front staff (Michelle and the ladies in the office) has always been very nice, polite, and attentive. I got the opportunity to sneak a peak in the shop as Im amazed that they do a selection of things from auto body to mechanical.. C.A.R.S is a 1 Stop Shop..
