Soquel Auto Repair

Quick, reasonably priced and efficient. Am going here from now on

Took my car here for smog repair. It took them a day and a half to perform 4 hours of work. When I showed up to pick up my car, the guy scolded me for calling to check the status of my car. I’m a cancer patient, and it is extremely difficult to be without my car as I have so many medical appointments. I just can’t believe the guy was so rude and lectured me for calling. I will never go here again. My car should have been ready the day I dropped it off, as I had dropped it off at 8am when they open. If it ultimately only took 4 hours to fix, why did they take over a day and a half? And the guy didn’t even call to tell me my car was ready… I just showed up and it was ready. He could have called to let me know, knowing I had called several times to check the status.
Lame. Rude. Inefficient. Go anywhere else.

Watch what you have these guys do. They changed my oil and did not tighten the filter properly. I had an oil leak all over my driveway and they were very unhelpful about getting it fixed. Good thing I discovered the oil leak otherwise could have blown the engine. I had to take it to another shop that confirmed what had happened. Not sure this place have certified or experienced mechanics, as the guy who did the work could hardly speak English. I will NEVER go here again, unless I want a sloppy job. The owner Fardad is a challenge to deal with.
