San Diego auto repair

Speedy Auto Repair actually had my preferred 5W-30 synthetic oil for my car. Very reasonable price and a quick oil change! I also, had the battery replaced since it was about 5 1/2 years old and the dash panel lights started to dim every time I braked. Since I was already at Speedy Auto Repair for an oil change, I asked if they can change the battery as well. The mechanic did some checking, and found the one that fit. It was a pretty good one, too with a 5 year warranty. It was even cheaper than the Die Hard that was dying on me. I didn't have an appointment, so, I was actually ready to drop off my car to pick up later that day. Luckily, it was all done within an hour while I waited.

I found this place by accident and I was so happy that I did! Really nice people, very easy to talk to and seemed very conscientious about their customers. Came in for a smog and was done and ready to go in about 30 minutes. They have really good hours too. The hardest part is getting in there (you have to be going the right way to get in their parking lot) but the once around the block was well worth it. I highly recommend!

Nothing more to say than great job fixing my ac. Could have ripped me off and didn't and actually came in UNDER the estimate. That's right. Under. I will never take my element anyplace else.

Super kind and professional

I love this place! Prices are really fair, and the customer support was top notch. They've helped me twice in a week and have made a loyal customer.

Had a leak that I thought was oil coming from the oil change I had a month earlier from Jiffy lube next door. Went to check and Jiffy lube said it wasn't from their oil change....coming from crankshaft seal. They took a day to fix it and a smog check and fluids replaced. I think they did a good job as my 2002 Toyota 4-runner is not leaking anymore.

I have an older car that needed Star Certification. That's pretty scary because you are at the mercy of the Smog Station. It's very easy for them to fail the smog test without an issue, you can fail alone for not passing a visual test. This is how many disreputable smog businesses make easy money - because you just want to get it over with, you'll pay whatever they ask to fix whatever is causing the car to fail smog testing. Not Speedy Auto & Smog. No tricks, they're completely honest and straightforward. If you have any worries in advance, call them and they'll help you know what you need to do to have the car pass. They don't play games. It's family owned, the lowest price I found anywhere and the staff couldn't be more pleasant. For a process that usually is a headache, they take all the worry away. On top of all that, they work fast. I brought a newspaper with me to pass the time, before I finished the first story, they were done. I'm sending all my friends and will return whenever I need a smog certification.

Speedy Auto Repair continues to provide me with excellent and personalized service for my car. They step up to the plate and I have been dissatisfied. They will explain the problem, show you the problem and repair it most often fairly quickly unless it is major but within the day if possible. I trust them to take car of my vehicle without fail.

When I came here for my Smog inspection, I was impressed by the service and wonderful attitude they had towards me. They made me feel comfortable and had no problems answering any of my questions. I'm back again to have the oil change and a general inspection before I go on a long road trip cross country. I got the exact same service as last time and they went through the process of how they were going to service my car. I appreciate finding a repair shop that works with their customers and tries to keep an open dialogue so that you don't feel like you are in the dark about what is being done on your car. Plus you don't feel like you are being nickled and dimed by the mechanics. If you are looking for a honest place to bring your car, this place is it!!

So the DMV required a STAR certified smog station and after a scam experience at Clairemont Auto Care I ended up at Speedy on a Saturday afternoon. Boy they ARE fast! Not only that they understood that a lit up check-vehicle-light is not a check-engine-light and has nothing to do with smog. When I asked them to top off some freon in my A/C they did that for free! I was out of there in 15 minutes. This is a family business, father and son were extremely nice and fun to talk to. The father let me know that I should go and have my transmission flushed "by my house mechanic" and presented the evidence as well. Also, he showed me the spot where my freon sneaks out of the A/C. That's how business should be conducted. See you next time!
