Joses Auto Repair - Monterey (CA)

Lauren Staples Joe is awesome! I brought my RAV4 in that was having some headlight issues, and he took care of it right away. He also took the time to physically show me the problem, and tell me what was going on. Most dealerships will just talk to you, and they don’t take the time to show you the physical work. My dad has used this business for years as well, and we are both always happy with their work. Really generous and kind guys too, thanks J&D!

Orna Berryman Superb auto shop. My is a true expert. He is thorough, detailed, honest and in his nature super helpful. Meticulous and was able to solve transmission issues with a very fair price. This is the right mechanic for you! All cars apparently serviced. Loved it. And....he washed my car without me asking or charging. Wow.

Susan Rowland From the first introduction on the phone to helping me exit my beautiful car from the parking lot I was treated with so much help. They helped with the rental car and insurance and accommodated our vacation schedule. A great, easy solution to an unfortunate collision. All is well!!! Thanks for the ease of it all! Art..you are the best!

Bobby Kramer My experience with Just Andy was very pleasurable. They know their stuff he not only fixed up my fuel leakage and fuel hose issue. They helped me learn about the bus too and did extra little things they didn’t have to. You can feel comfortable in knowing you’re in good hands going to Just Andy

Safiullah Latifi I had an exceptional experience at Sabino’s Auto Shop in Seaside. After dealing with ongoing engine issues and multiple check engine codes, I brought my vehicle in for diagnostics. Within just two hours, Sabino accurately identified and fixed the problems—a thermostat that wasn’t opening properly and a faulty oxygen sensor. What truly set this shop apart was the honesty, efficiency, and affordability of the service. Sabino is not only highly skilled but also incredibly genuine and trustworthy—qualities that are hard to come by in this industry. Before coming here, I had taken my car to three other shops in Monterey and Seaside, all of which recommended unnecessary repairs that had nothing to do with the actual issue. Sabino, on the other hand, was transparent and only addressed what truly needed attention. Thanks to him and his team, my car is now running perfectly. I won’t be going anywhere else—Sabino has earned my complete trust, and this will be my go-to shop moving forward. Thank you again, Sabino, for your outstanding work and integrity.

Laurie Wallace This is the only garage I visited, who was very helpful when he recognised I was using a non US credit card to get gas. A really nice guy.

Jonathan Denton Frank was very knowledgeable, honest, and straight forward. Would definitely do business here again.

Anamarie Brown We’ve been bringing our cars here for everything from oil changes to brake work and general maintenance, and they’ve been amazing every time. The team is honest, professional, and really knows their stuff. They always take the time to explain what’s needed (without pushing unnecessary work), and they get things done quickly and at a fair price. It’s hard to find a shop you can trust these days, but Salazar’s has absolutely earned our trust. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for reliable, high-quality auto service!
