I have been taking my cars to Allens Wrench for years now, and wouldnt think of going anywhere else. Its always hard to find a mechanic you trust, and I trust them completely. I know that anytime something is wrong, it is something that needs fixing and they take care of it quickly and the price is always more than fair. Steve and the guys are great, I highly recommend Allens Wrench for your freign car repair needs!
We started going to this 5 star shop after Pep Boys bought Premier Auto (Harry;s place). I love how Dennis and Steve run this place. I cant say enough about how accomodating and fair they are with providing a service that is in the best interest of the vehicle and us as customers.Heres an example. My alternator went out on a 2005 Avalon one afternoon when we were going to let friends from MA borrow the car for their vacation in San Diego. AAA diagnosed the problem. Steve said drive it up here and let me take a look. And yes it needed an alternator (new battery and belt). They had it done by 11 am the next morning (with no appointment).These guys are simply the best! I love taking my 5 vehicles here. Thank you Dennis. Steve, Denny and the technicians that I dont yet know.
We just picked up a used Honda Pilot that was due for the 105K mile maintenance--timing belt, valve adjustment, tuning, etc. Was looking for an alternative to the dealership and found Allens Wrench. The reviews stood out so I went by for a quote. Staff was on-point: theyre all Honda pros who know the cars inside and out by model and year. Pulled the trigger and had them do the work. They went above and beyond in multiple ways and gave me a crash course on my specific vehicle. In my somewhat experienced opinion, Allens Wrench is a step above the dealerships in value, experience, and trust. Would recommend them to anyone with a Honda or Acura and plan to be a customer for a long time.
Best Honda shop I know. Been going to these guys for years. Not very close to my home, but worth it as I trust them. Very fair prices, and I appreciate them answering all my questions.
Very impressed with them. Brought my 96 Miata with a check engine light indicating a bad crank position sensor. Thought I would need a new one. Dennis called me and said it was just very dirty. They cleaned it and reset the code. Appreciate the honesty, as they could have told me I needed a new one and made more money.
Hands down, the best auto repair shop. My family and I have been coming here for probably 10 years now. Honest, professional, kind…the best.
Honest and always accommodating to my needs. Excellent service!
Always friendly and Des a great job! Been going to them for almost 20 years!
I recommend this place to everyone. Very professional employees. They take care of your car as if it is their own.
Weve been customers of theirs for almost 20 years. Super friendly staff, knowledgeable and accessories diagnoses. Weve become better friends over time. These are the guys you want to go to, especially for Acuras and Hondas!
A friend at work recommend this place to get my starter switch out of my 2014 CR-V. The dealership (stealership) wanted too much $$$, this place did it for 1/3 of the cost. Great friendly staff and great service.
Best mechanic shop in the area.. honest guys that wont rip u off
Friends at work have recommended this place for years. I took a relatives Acura there after it had sat idle for a year and rats had invaded the engine compartment. Stephen was professional and friendly and had the car back after a couple of days. No major damage was found but a bad place could have easily gouged us. So nice to find an honest place.
Dennis, Steve and the guys have been taking care of my familys cars for years, they are the absolute best!
Awesome service, been going here for more than 10 years. Always professional, they dont do work that doesnt need doing. Very reasonable prices. Theyve kept my 2006 Accord going strong for well over 300,000 miles! Thanks guys!
Steve, Dennis, and the team at Allens Wrench are the best. They dont bs you ever, always do an excellent job, are super knowledgeable/helpful, and are just overall great dudes to chat with. Feels like family. Its so rare to be able to take your car anywhere for repairs/maintenance and get honest, reliable service at reasonable rates, but Allens Wrench always delivers on those fronts. Ive been taking my cars to them for two decades and wont go anywhere else.
Good service. I maintain my car here for about 6 years. I didnt have any problems.
Amazing service. I called with an issue and they found a way to take me in that day for an evaluation. And even better, they correctly diagnosed the problem, fit me in right then, let me add an oil change half way through the service and STILL got me out within 2 hours. These guys are GOOD!
Been going here for about 20 years. My dad introduced me to them and I wont go anywhere else. Steve and the gang are always so willing to help and explain things to us non-car inclined folk. Theyre honestly one of the 20 reasons I wont leave North Country/San Marcos. Always positive, fair, and informative. If you take your car anywhere else, youre doing your car and yourself a huge disservice.
I always use these guys for my Mazda CX-9 maintenance needs and will never go anywhere else. They are extremely honest and will not try to rip you off unlike the dealerships.
Fast and friendly. No BS 👍
I have been going to this garage for my Honda’s and Mazda for over 15years. I trust and appreciate their commitment to provide excellent, honest and professional service. They are always so understanding and willing to help and give professional advice. I recommend them to anyone without any inhibition.
What a class act. I was referred by an associate and I couldnt be happier with the service. These guys were very professional, they completed several services on my car in a very timely manner, & the price was better than several shops that I requested quotes from including my usual shop in Murrieta. I will be taking all my future Automotive repairs to Allens Wrench from now on. I highly recommend this shop.
Had a great experience. Came in because I hit a dead end trying to fix my car myself and rather than just taking it in he helped me figure out what was wrong and set me on the right path. Would definitely go back!
They do a great job clearly communicating both the diagnostic of the car and cost. Friendly and helpful customer service.
Absolutely everything you would want from a neighborhood auto shop. The crew are experts at what they do and treat their customers like family. Our family feels so lucky to have these guys as our go to for any auto issue that we might have.
I love,love Allens Wrench. The best auto shop ever. I had a car for twenty years and Allens Wrench keep it running. That car was never stall on side of the road and bad no problem in this shop car.My new car,I take to them because I trust only Allens to take care of my car.If you want a trustworthy shop that wont charge an arm or leg,go to this shop. I love these guys and the owner is super sweet guy as well.
Dennis and his staff are true professionals in every aspect of the word. If you are having problems with your vehicle go see the talented team at Allens Wrench. A more honest and professional group you wont find anywhere else
Excellent service. Honest. Highly recommend.
I decided to give Allens Wrench a try because of all the positive reviews and I was not disappointed, these guys are great. They were able to get my car in the same day for brakes. Steve was friendly and helpful and provided a very reasonable quote for the work. Turns out I needed all new brakes and rotors and they did a fantastic job. The brakes feel like they did when the car was new, Im super happy. I will definitely be bringing my car back here for all service needs going forward.
They are great. I believe Steve over any other mechanic.
Photos are of George, the shop dog. Wonderful shop, recommended to me by my brother, a loyal customer! No hidden fees, fair pricing, wonderful treatment! My car is running beautifully
Hands down, you won’t find more trustworthy, genuine, helpful people to work with. Dennis and Steve have been taking care of our cars and our kids cars for over 15 years and have ALWAYS been honest and fair - especially about what needs work and what doesn’t. if integrity is what you’re looking for - these guys consistently deliver. We are grateful.
Most honest auto mechanic I have ever known. They do only whats required.
This is the best shop in the county if you have a Honda, Acura, or Mazda. I have been going to them for years. I usually do all the work on my cars myself but sometimes I dont have time and Ill take it Allens Wrench. THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES I TRUST TO WORK ON MY CARS. I dont even trust the dealerships...This is the ONLY shop I refer people to when they need work. They will get the job done right and wont oversell you or rip you off. Most honest guys in the business.- Roberto
So happy I was recommended to this place! After a horrible experience at Honda Escondido, went here for what I was told was a major oil leak. Steve knew the problem almost by phone and fixed my 2015 Accord with a quick, easy transmission sensor replacement.This place is honest and the people are great to work with. They have the parts for Hondas and know their stuff- better than the dealership! If I could give 6 stars, I would- they deserve it!
I would not take my cars anywhere else. They are simply the best. An honest and fair place to have repairs done.
Great service!!
Great service. Very knowledgeable, straightforward and honest.
Ive been having my cars serviced here for over 20 years. Best place to have your car taken care off hands down!
Top notch service! I’ve been going there for years and they’ve always taken care of me. Thank you Dennis and Steve!
Dennis, the owner of Allens Wrench, has been my mechanic for over twenty years! I could never see myself going to any other mechanic. Very highly recommended! Completely satisfied with every single repair. Dennis professional advice has saved lots of money over for over twenty years!
Trustworthy, effective, timely, what else can you ask for!The guy you will probably first contact is Steve, this guy is the freakin man. He will treat you with respect and always makes time for you even when its obvious the dude is swamped. They never push work you dont need. Even when it comes to your 30K/60K/90K... if the vehicle doesnt need it, they wont change it. This saves you hundreds. All the techs and reps there are professional and courteous. They have coffee and TV there if you are waiting. I have been bringing our vehicles here for over 5 years, never have I been unsatisfied with their work or feel cheated when it comes to $$ in any way. You can thank me later..... what are you waiting for, call Steve now and tell him Raul with the Hyundai Tuscon sent you.
Fantastic, quick service. They do their job, and don’t take advantage of customers. Friendly staff that’s been there for a long time, and knows their stuff about vehicles. By far the only place I’d go to, and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a mechanic.
I’ve been taking my car here for a few years now. The guys there are great people! Way better prices than the dealership. Very trustworthy. I won’t take my car to anyone else.
Honest, fair, and friendly. Great guys. Any Japanese made car within a 50 mile radius should be exclusively repaired with them. Don’t waste your time and money anywhere else.
I’ve been their customer for 4 years now (Mazda 3). I’m very happy with their service. I never had any problem with the parts they fixed.When something needs to get done they tell you, I trust them.
Dennis and Steve are good dudes. Not only do we have them service our cars, but they helped with advice when I was thinking of inspecting a used Toyota. Theyve earned my trust.
Honest, fast, fair, reasonable prices. Ive taken my Subaru here often and I trust these guys. If they cant fix it or it doesnt fall within their expertise, they are quick to let you know. Highly recommended.
Ive been a loyal customer for 20 years and have not had even a single negative experience. I trust Dennis and Steve 100% and I appreciate their ethics, professionalism, and candor.
The service is so great people keep them for life. I now travel 70 miles and know i will get great service AND NOT taken advantage of.
It is hard to find a good honest machanic. This is on of the greats. Must for auto repair
Allen Wrench is family to me. The owner has taken care of my car for almost 20 years and still running. They are honest hard working guys who truly will never cheat you or give you service you just dont need.Better then that,they will tell you how long you can go without repair before it gets bad just in cause you dont have the cash to repair.Love these guys.
Most honest auto shop to take your Honda,Mazda or Hyundai car for repairs. They will not try to coast you into services you dont need. Allen Wrench care about safety of your car and in long run treat you like family not like a customer.I should know,been with them for almost 20years.
Been going there 19 years. Great reliable service.
Great staff. HONEST outstanding integrity . Always their. Love them so much. Will never leave. Best auto mechanics in the business.
Allens wrench is the best place to go when you need good quality good customer service assistance theyve been there a long time they know what theyre doing
Brought in our car that was having issues accelerating. The staff looked into the problem and identified two potential issues. It is an older car and had significant corrosion or damaged parts that needed to be replaced. The cleaned the corrosion and told us to see if that helps before spending money to replace parts. Better yet, they did not charge us for the time the spent working on the car. Honesty and Integrity!!!!
I wont take my car anyplace else. Dennis is honest and does great work.
Excellent, honest and accurate service! I needed something diagnosed and Dennis diagnosed it for free in less than a minute. The solution was free! I am bringing all my business here going forward and will recommend to friends and family!
Highly recommend. They only recommend what you need and prices are amazing.
Great Service. Allens is always looking out for the customer. With all the conversations Ive heard while waiting during my cars service appointment and my own experience, I feel very confident that Allens Wrench is not going to try to take advantage or slip something by.
My Wife and I have been using Allens Wrench for about 6 years now to service our Acura and Infinity. They are quick, fair and honest, and will inspect and locate the issue with your car, then speak with you realistically about what your car needs and how to fix it without taking you to the bank. The shop is clean, and is an exceptional alternative to dealership prices and hassles. We will continue to take our cars there as long as we own them.
Dennis, Steve, and the mechanics at Allens Wrench are simply the best. You wont find more honest and professional service anywhere. We were referred to Allens Wrench by a neighbor back in 2000 and have been going there ever since. My wife insisted on getting a Honda when the old car died just so we can continue to get our car serviced by Dennis - sounds corny but true! What I appreciate the most about them is their honesty. They will tell you if something is broken but can wait to be repaired. A stark contrast to the dealers who go on a treasure hunt every time you take it in for an oil change special.
Very knowledge staff
The Best shop in town!
Honest and trustworthy. I trust my vehicles with them and have been totally satisfied with the service I have received. They work efficiently and are friendly to deal with.
With one word I can sum up every visit I have had -AWESOME.
Excellent professional service
Absolutely amazing. Fast, easy, and to the point. No BS and no unnecessary fees or charges.
I came to Allens wrench over 5 years ago and they got me out of a mess that a friend got my timing belt into! I have come to them for everything since. They are good honest guys working hard to take care of our cars and I would recommend them 100 %. Today I got stranded with a dead battery and with one call I was in and out with a new battery within 45 minutes of my call! Thanks Steve!
One of top mechanic shops for Japanese/Asian Cars in the area, very knowledgeable staff. Assisted me with vtec/camshaft solenoid gasket leak which known issues on honda/acura. Mechanics & Steve are the Best!
Best mechanic in town. Always on time and honest with fair prices.
Love the people there - Dennis, Steve and all the rest! Won’t take our cars anywhere else!
My husband and I have been going here since we moved to the area in 2007 based upon recommendations from coworkers. The guys know their stuff and provide honest, good work at a fair price.
