Henrys Auto Repair - San Diego (CA)

Dmitrii Pilipenko After visiting the auto repair shop for my car, I was pleasantly surprised by the high level of service. The staff demonstrated professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail. The repair was done with quality, and my questions were thoroughly explained. The convenient location and cleanliness of the shop also made a positive impression. The entire process was transparent, and I felt my car was in reliable hands. The outcome exceeded my expectations—my car looks and operates as if it just came out of the showroom. I highly recommend this shop to anyone valuing quality and professionalism in auto service. Thanks for the excellent service! I also want to add that I have not met such care about customers for a long time, the guys were attentive to my problem and tried to help me, I am an old man and it is difficult for me sometimes to understand what I need, they were patient and did a great job!

Belinda Ramsey Ive been taking my car to Sam Lee Auto for 10 years. I have always been happy with the service and the fair prices for repair. Today, I took my car in for an oil change even tho I wasnt feeling well. I showed John the paperwork for a smog test needed to renew the registration and asked if they were able to do that as well He told me to leave it on the seat and said he would help After the oil change, John sent one of his guys in my car to get the smog test! I couldnt believe it! They paid for it with their own money and I paid them back. What service! They really helped me out today and I will never forget it.

Dave Wanted to find a new local mechanic (Pacific Beach area) for my 2010 Jeep Wrangler. M&C Auto kept showing great reviews on sites I looked at so decided to give them a shot at the end of May 2025, when I had a coolant leak issue. They got me in the same day I contacted them, diagnosed the problem right away, which was a radiator leak. Quoted me a replacement and labor price which was way under other shops. Vincent, the shop manager, was great at showing me all that they did (system was flushed as well). Carlos was also helpful in keeping me informed of the work done. I definitely have found my new local auto shop!

Jarrod G This shop was recommended to me by another mechanic. When one shop told us our vehicle needed a new motor, this shop said “no you don’t!” With a little patience they proved it, and were able to revive our truck’s motor making it purr like a kitten and run like new. Sometimes it just takes experience instead of somebody, throwing their hands in the air and saying I can’t do it. This is a place I will continue to refer people to, and bring cars to. I run a classic car business, and it’s always good to have valuable, trusted, honest service.

Caroline Boucher Great mechanic! Quality Auto went above and beyond to complete my repair on short notice. I shipped my car from Hawaii and picked it up from the port on a Friday. I could tell it needed repairs before driving cross country Monday. They got me in on Saturday and stayed open late to complete my diagnostic and repair. Fairly priced and great customer service. They walked me through what was wrong and didn’t charge me for anything I didn’t need. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else if I lived in San Diego! Lucky I found them!

Brendan Bracken I have come in multiple times, with multiple cars we own. These guys do a fantastic job. One of our previous cars, a LandRover RangeRover, had some decidedly difficult issues with the sensors precluding us from passing CA Smog Certification.... they were able to get the system updated through multiple drive cycles. Definitely worth coming to check out.

Jack Kennedy These guys did a great job taking care of my 14’ Sequoia and had it back in a very reasonable time! Thanks so much TLC! I’ll be bringing my car back again soon

Jack Benedict Vicente is the best! He’s fair, honest and just a nice guy in general. I thought there was something big wrong with my car because it was making loud popping and crunching noises and when I took it in he was honest that nothing was wrong with my car besides it needing an oil change and a new air filter. He changed those and I was out the door for a super fair price. The noises ended up being part of the bumper rubbing up against my tire so purely aesthetic. I feel like a lot of places would just diagnose something expensive to get money. If I’m back in San Diego again and something happens with my car, I know where I’m going.

Phelan Riessen I went to FTS due to a suspension issue. They took the time to find a manufacturer that had the product since none of the dealers had it in stock at the time. I’ll be honest, I was a bit of a problem customer and unbeknownst to me at the time there was an underlying issue that was caused by the previous repair shop. These guys handled it professionally as best as they could considering the situation. Five stars and I would definitely recommend using FTS to anyone that needs auto repair. Thank you!

silly sarah This review has been a decade in the making. I have been coming here for years. They care about what they do and they do it well. Its a small business. I have tried to take my car elsewhere and just end up taking it here to be fixed after taking it elsewhere. I dont trust anyone else with my car. If I could give more stars, I would.
