Ken fixed the problem with my 26-year-old Toyota efficiently and at a great value. My son is a loyal Kens customer, and now so am I.

Ken has been my familys mechanic for years now. Honest, fair and reliable. Always so nice and cheerful, and a great mechanic. I can always count on Ken for any car issues or questions I have.

I have been to Ken multiple times and the experience has always been the most pleasant. Ken is a very kind guy. He is the guy who will go extra mile if he has to, in order to fix your auto in correct way. I would highly recommend to everyone!

He works on Saturdays!! He is a great man and a very skilled mechanic. Above all he is an honest man.He fixes problems so fast that its hard to believe -- even obscure ones youd think could take days just to locate the right part. You can go to lunch and come back and see your car (still) parked in the lot and youll think to yourself great he hasnt even started yet until he waves you over and says OK! and hands you the keys.He is the master of alternators and seriously has one of the most effective networks for finding parts anywhere -- everything is always within a few hours reach. He found and installed an alternator for my RV in two hours for 1/4 the price that two AAA-recommended shops spend one week each looking, tinkering, and charging me quadruple. Luckily they gave up and gave my money back so I could get it fixed at Kens!!He spot-welds. Part of my suspension snapped and estimates nearby were for thousands. I took it to Ken and literally 45 minutes later he was done and asked for less than one hundred fifty bucks. I gave him twice what he asked for and I still felt like I took advantage. This is the only mechanic Ive ever thought of tipping, let alone done it.This is an amazing man running an amazing shop, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services.

I have really appreciated going to Kens for car issues for the last couple of years. He has fixed the problem each time, and accommodated me even the most recent time when things were a little busy and I came late. And nice fellow as well.

He diagnosed my overheating problem quickly. He had all the tools and wiring diagrams needed to do it quickly. The price fair too. Highly recommended.

I will be honest. Kens and I did not get off on the right foot. However, that is in the past and I want to review my experiences with Kens Auto Repair. Kens did a head gasket job and timing belt change on our 98 Forester, and did a good job at a very fair price. About a month later, the tensioner pulley failed, which I believe was the fault of the manufacturer of the part, not the installation. Kens fixed the problem quickly on their own dime. My thoughts on the experience is this: Ken wants to run the best business he can. The 98 Forester is not an easy car to keep maintained, and as a result, he was honest with me that he preferred not to work on the car. However, he did end up doing the initial job, and was honest with me the entire time as to cost and time frame, despite the potential for failure based on the vehicle. When the part failed, Ken fixed it. He is a good businessman and good with Subarus. Its hard to find an honest mechanic, Ken is very much one of the best out there. If you have a Subaru that you have been putting off work on, Ken has proven to me he deserves your business. He wont lie to you, even if the truth isnt what you wanted to hear. Hes a good man and runs a good shop.

I called 4 mechanics for an estimate for a diagnostics test and they all quoted 120$. Ken however did it for 35$ then proceeded to fix the problem within 3 hours at a fair price.As long as I own a car an live in the bay area Ken will be my mechanic.

Been going to Ken for YEARS. Met him through my moms boss, who is a lawyer. Ken has been very honest, gives you options, but is a no BS type of mechanic. Once its fixed its been fine! Doesnt Nickle and Dime you. Hes worked on all my cars, plus my mothers cars. 99 BMW 325i, 2001 BMW 5251, 06 Nissan 350z. My Moms 99, 06, and 14 Jeep Grand Cherokee, plus my wifes 2012 Scion xA . Never had any issues, fast, great work, great cost. You will never need to find another mechanic!!
