P R Motorsports

My first experience with PR Motorsports and I was very happy with all aspects of the job. I had to replace all four struts on my 2006 Acura TSX, plus alignment. Laura provided her personal experience and insight to help me decide which replacement parts to choose. Hector did the work perfectly, and on time, and left the car a little cleaner than it was. They even gave me a little discount on the price to bring it nearer to their competition. I am very pleased with how the car is handling now– it is a big improvement. Take their address when you go for the first time; though there is a small sign, you won’t see the shop if simply driving on Cabot.

I recently took my Mazda RX-​8 out of NOP after being garaged for 7 years and was planning to take it for a 800 mile road trip to Seattle. My first instinct was to go back to the dealership and do major maintenance including replacing the water pump, belts and changing out all the fluids. However, my last experience with the dealership was that they overcharge and cannot explain why things needed to be done.
So, I looked on Unilocal,found PR Motorsports and gave them a try. I must say that was I was extremely satisfied by the friendly customer service, technical skills and great value provided by Laura and Hector. Not only could they explain all the nuisances about my RX8 they did the work at a much lower price than the dealership. I actually had a quote from Fremont Mazda from 2014 for work I didn’t do so I knew exactly how much were the dealership prices.
Laura assured me my road trip would be fine and here I am in Seattle writing this review.
Thanks PR Motorsports!

My 2000 Miata was long overdue for service and maintenance and I was expecting a long list of items to address. Hector did a thorough inspection and Laura prepared a helpful «pass/​warning/​fail» report for each part of the car’s systems. She grouped and quoted costs for recommended repairs by urgency/​priority so that I could space them over time. Hector did the rear brakes and replaced the battery while I waited. I used to only take my Miata to PR Motorsports but stopped in 2013 after I changed jobs and moved further away. But after I realized my current mechanic tried to rip me off on the brake job, I have decided the extra distance is worth it. I’m going back to PR Motorsports! They are honest, experienced, reasonable – and incredibly nice people!

PR Motors deliver honest and reliable service.
Laura and Hector have taken care of my S2000 for some time now; and they have consistently done a proper job, from an oil change to a clutch and transmission overhaul. They’ve earned my trust.
I don’t mind driving across the Bay to have them service the roadster, if you give them a try, I anticipate that you, too, will be pleased with the results.

I cannot say enough great things about Laura, Hector and their team.
We had so many issues with our Accord recently from both wear and tear over the years and from previous work done to it. Hector worked above and beyond trying to figure out what was wrong, even outside of work. Now that is dedication and a passion for what he does and their customers. Both he and Laura were so patient in the process, so understanding, so knowledgeable, so professional, so kind, so honest; I can go on and on!
There’s more! Even before we brought in ANY car or paid a DIME for any services, Laura was SOOO helpful when I was researching for mechanics on our other car that was acting up, and she was giving me advice, tips and treating me as if I had been their customer for years already.
Seriously, I cannot say enough about how amazing they are. I love them. My husband, who is the one who brings our cars in, loves them.
We have found a lifetime mechanic for all of our cars! We both wish we found them sooner!
Thank you Laura, Hector and awesome team for your amazing service and dedication! We love P R Motorsports!!!

Once again, superior work done on my daughters Nissan — Bit of a drive to get there from Santa Cruz, but their top notch service is worth it!

I feel that I own the shop and Hector? (that really nice technician) a five star review as my car was fixed without even a charge.
This morning on highway 92 I had to drive over a ladder sitting right in the middle of the middle lane. The car in front of me did the same so when his/​her car passed the ladder I was left with no time to change lanes. My car immediately started to sound a loud rubbing sound which worried me a lot. Took the car to PR motorsports, Hector was able to fix it in less than 5 min. Turns out it was just some wire/​tube? changed direction, presumably caused by the ladder. And they refused to charge me for the service. Just come by next time when you run into real problems, told me the receptionist with a smile. Honest and professional, car shop to go.

After a 20 year gap between Mazdas I came back to PR for a vehicle evaluation. Same fantastic service, same cheerful and helpful attitude. It’s good that some things don’t change.

Very good service! I was referred to them by a friend that’s been going to them for years so I decided to check them out on Unilocal,and it has to be the best decision I’ve made in 2015. I read that they’re by appointment only but when I called asking about a simple oil change and check up Laura was kind enough to allow me to come by within the next 15 minutes. I recently just purchased a used vehicle without any service records so she was kind enough to pull a service car fax to tell me the 411 on it, and after all of that and the check up she showed me the list of things I should be looking to take care of, but one thing that really got me was that she didn’t try to sell me things I didn’t need, and told me how much time I had before I needed to do the repair, which basically gives me time to save up lol. Overall it was a very good experience for me and I’ll mosdef be coming back for my services and repairs!
Ps. Come around 10am ish and wait for the food truck to come by because it’s hella good.

Reviewing PRMotorsports is like reviewing my family.
Laura & Hector are certainly my lil sis & lil bro of motorsports, previous owner Rick Weldon & Mazda Speed helped build my 1995 RX-​7 into a lean, mean 350+hp 2,625 lb Laguna Seca lap machine over 10 yrs.
Recently drove by PRMotorsports in my 2008 Caddy STS-​V, only 438 made, open hood & Hector, like engine whisperer, rattles off this & that need adjustment.
Props Hector! You stand in your own light.

Honest and professional. If you have a Mazda, particularly an MX-​5, there is no reason to go anywhere else.
I called before buying a used MX-​5 to ask about an oil pan leak another mechanic had diagnosed — Laura and Hector informed me that they had never seen that issue on any NC Miata ever, so the other mechanic was either wrong or trying to screw me. Laura then spent another 15 minutes or so talking to me about what to look for in a used MX-​5. I wasn’t even a client at the time — just some guy on the phone! After I purchased the car, I brought it to PR for a bit of track prep service, and they were great once again.
If you have a Mazda, this is the place.

this shop provides high quality repairs. Real friendly staff, professional looking shop, and great service writer. The shop is kind of hidden but once you get there you will see that its a good shop.

My husband and I have been taking our Honda Odyssey to P R Motors for two years and are very very pleased with the knowledge and service of the woman who schedules appointments and the mechanic. My son also took his Nissan truck after another mechanic said he needed a new transmission and fan belts. The mechanic at P R said the fan belts needed replacing, but not the transmission. With all the dishonest mechanics out there, I appreciated that the mechanic at P R did not try to make a fast buck.
We will continue going to P R Motors & highly recommend them.

I’ve taken my car here for so long because I trust them to a. tell me exactly what’s wrong with my car and b. make only the needed repairs. They are not pushy and don’t try and tell you to repair things unnecessarily. They find problems and let you if the repair is an immediate need or could wait awhile.
The customer service of PR Motorsports is fantastic! I would recommend and trust them with my vehicle for all repairs.

I think this place is the best auto shop in hayward. For first time customers, I recommend that you call first as their shop is tucked away in the back. When it comes to professional and courteous service, they set the standard! So far they have exceeded my expectations, the people are very honest. They deserve 5 stars!

I made a visit to PR motor sports today. I wish it was for a straight forward maintenance. Unfortunately Riis was not the case. My car has been having «episodes» of not wanting to turn on. I explained the situation to Laura via messages. When i got there I was welcomed and Hector went right to work. I stepped aside and let them do what they do. Less than an hour later hector calls me. I am excited thinking the issue is solved.
This is were I appreciated what PR motor sports did. They were straight forward with me telling me what is not wrong with my car. Along with this we narrowed down what the issue may be. Hector not being 100% sure said he was not wanting to replaced starter without doing further testing. Do although my car left just as it came. The honestly that PR motor sports showed me. Is of wanting to build an honest relationship with their customers. They look at the longevity of having return customers before the idea to make a quick buck. I will take Hector and Laura’s advice and see if my problem will be solved. If not I know that they will know what to do next to make my car right. A side note: very personal people and explain in a way you’re average folk can understand.

I’ve been taking my Miata track car to PR Motorsports for almost 4 years. They’ve done everything from minor maintenance to repair work to installing new suspension components and an aftermarket clutch. The quality of Hector’s mechanical work has been excellent every time.
However, what sets PR Motorsports apart is that they always go the extra mile on customer service. They’ll work with you on scheduling, drop you off/​pick you up at BART, help locate hard to find parts, proactively point out trouble spots, provide Wifi and coffee while you wait.
One time they perfectly aligned a cold air intake I had installed myself and upgraded the fasteners. The car was in for unrelated work and they didn’t mention it. Hector must have noticed it and just brought it up to their level of quality.
Laura has talked me out of spending money when the service or modifications would not provide a real benefit. More than once…
Pricing? Pretty good for the Bay Area. Excellent considering level of worry-​free service.
PR Motorsports does still have room for improvement. If they worked on German cars they could save me a lot of money…
Check out their website for the cars they service and hope you get lucky.
And if you’re a Bay Area Miata owner that has been taking your car somewhere else, first go apologize to your car, then make your next appointment with PR Motorsports.

We had a great experience servicing our cars this morning. Laura and Hector are extremely personable and fun! The assessment seemed very honest and fair. I highly recommend PR Motorsports for your automotive needs.

An amazing repair shop!!!
Hector is committed to perfection with every repair
and Laurie is the epitome of great customer service…
They take care of all the details so it’s a stress-​free
Experience from beginning to end. Auto repair shops
that operate like this are rare these days!!!

I took My brother-in-law’s Mazda 3 that was having engine hesitation and missing during idling. Hard to diagnose at first since the scanner did not show anything was wrong. After driving it around for a few miles, it finally gave us the error code and the #2 cylinder ignition coil was replaced. Voila ! problem fixed.
This is one of the greatest and professional auto shops in the Bay Area. It was such a pleasure to deal with all of them. Laura was very cordial and followed up a few days after the car was repaired to see how the car performed. I don’t know of any shop that does that. Hector knows his cars and I will trust him with all my vehicles from this point forward.
