Highly recommend! Amazing service! I called and asked about getting my brakes replaced and they did it the very next day for a great price and were quick. A few days later I brought my husbands car in for a battery diagnostic and they were able to get that replaced the same day. I will continue to come here.

Kevin was great! He took the time to explain, in detail, everything he was going to do. He is clearly very knowledgeable and loves to share that knowledge. Will definitely be coming back when I need other repairs done.

The Best Decision You will make in Your Lifetime!**********(I tried to add more stars but they only had 5)1) Kevins Auto Care Inc. = HONEST + FAIR + QUALITY2) 3 Others including Lexus Dealership charged me for a diagnosticstating that my transmission was going out and needed to be replaced3) Kevin diagnosed a wiring problem in my car and had my car fixed andback to me the very next day4) Kevin saved me Time, Money and gave me Peace of Mind (Priceless)I am telling all my friends, families and strangers about this place.

The service, speed, and value we got out of our visit today was outstanding! We dropped our car off for new brakes, a drive belt, and an issue with one of the turn signals. Everything was finished the same day, for significantly less than our previous dealership quoted, and we couldnt be happier with the results.The team here is fantastic, honest, and they put their customers first.

Ive brought my car to Kevin for about 3 years now, everytime Kevin himself greets me. Ive had nothing but good come from taking my car to his shop, from him giving me pointers for my own ability to do maintenance on my own time, to his work ethic and knowledge of vehicles, to the timely manner he finishes the job. Kevins auto care is a go to place in my eyes and anyone who needs true and honest car care should invest their time and money here.

Kevin was recommended to me by a close friend of mine. His team worked hard to get my vehicle up and running in a timely manner. His prices are great compared to other auto shops in the area. Will continue to go to Kevin and his team for future vehicle repairs.

Kevin and his team are wonderful! I recently moved to the area and was looking for a mechanic to replace my front brake pads, rotors and calipers on my truck. Kevin was very professional, kind, honest and got everything done very fast! He even informed me that my calipers were in good working condition and only fixed what was needed. Definitely a mechanic you can trust. All work was done at a very good price as well! I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back. Thank you!!!

Kevin was very knowledgeable regarding my vehicle and my particular models history. Advised me to perform only the immediate necessary repairs. He did not try to sell me on doing any extra work. Very reasonable and fair regarding diagnostic charges. He will definitely be my first call the next time I need vehicle repairs.

Kevin is pleasant to speak with. He charges a very fair price and completed the work on time.After checking my brakes (I figured were about due), he let me know they are actually still in good shape and dont need to be replaced at this time. Honesty like that is rare!Based on my experience, I will keep bringing my vehicles to Kevins and I reccomend his service to you as well.

Such a sweet man!! He’s helped me numerous times when my husband was deployed being that I have 0 knowledge of cara. He explains in detail what is going on and what the meaning of the issue is, he gives Military discount as well. If you ever need anything for a good price call Kevin.

I’m not one to write reviews but this is a time to do so.If you need auto work done, this is your “go to” shop and more specifically, Kevin.Honest, knowledgeable, reasonable, personable, friendly staff, and incredibly efficient.I am truly delighted I have found Kevin’s shop and with six cars currently in the stable I know I’ll be a frequent customer.Recent work:Complete front end suspension replacement, rear shocks, timing chain, cam shaft sensor replacement, and A/C system evac, test and charge on a Ford Ranger.Oil change and brake system inspection on a Ford Escape Hybrid.Catalytic converter and windshield washer reservoir inspection and recommendations for repair.This shop seems to be able to do it all; promptly and at a very fair price.

I was referred to Kevin by my co-worker and I’m so glad I was. It’s hard to find an honest and good mechanic. Kevin was both. My car needed several things repaired. I was worried about what the total cost would be. But, Kevin gave me a good deal for everything and now my car runs like new! I highly recommend Kevin’s Auto Care. Thank you Kevin for a job well done and for your kindness!

Review №25

Wow people stay away from this place.. I called Kevin hoping to get help with my transmission and he quoted me 900.00 in labor to remove and replace my transmission The transmission in my truck takes 1 hour to remove and 1 hour to replace thats a total of of 2 maybe 3 hours if you have a problem This means he charges 400+ an hour... Total rip off Do not go here ..

We have been coming to Kevin’s for repair and maintenance in my 2012 Mercedes C250 and my husband’s F150 for a few years. Kevin has always been helpful and fair with his price and services. When we took our car to the dealership they did not take care or my car issue, I brought it to Kevin and it was fixed in a couple of days and for much less than the dealership wanted to charge me. I strongly recommend Kevin Auto Care for your automotive needs.

Nothing but positive things to say about Kevin auto repair. Kevin was able to accommodate me without an appointment and fixed my car within 2 days. He is the kind of auto mechanic who is honest and very reasonable. He will do such top quality work, prices are VERY REASONABLE! He will not rip you off like others. You can be comfortable bringing your car here. Thanks Kevin.

Review №34

Kevin was referred to me by a co-worker. He was close and he has the best name there is so I took my 08 Charger there when I started noticing some issues. He looked it over and gave me a breakdown of what it would take to fix. He showed what a fair price is for the work he was going to do as well. He finished on time and my car has been running smoothly ever since this visit. I highly recommend Kevins shop... and no, Im not Kevin that owns the shop. :-)

Had a terrible backyard mechanics mess with my valve cover from previous owner. Was quoted nothing less than 2000 from multiple shops around oceanside vista area. Kevin got the valve cover and gaskets and brakes done for 1400. Awesome guy. Amazing people and genuinely care. Amazing work at a very fair price. Will not take my car anywhere else.

Kevin is family. He takes excellent care of his friends, and he treats them like family. When I met Kevin some years back, he was a student at the college where I work at, and Kevin at the time would willingly let classmates and professors know that he is willing to help them fix their car troubles. Although I have a professional relationship with Kevin, I trust him like family.

Kevin made himself available during Labor Day weekend to get my cars air conditioner repaired. At every point he kept costs down as much as possible. As a customer I felt my needs were always considered in an honest, helpful manner. His waiting room is very comfortable, again showing respect for his customers. Kevin is an excellent mechanic that operates with integrity, someone you can trust to give you the best all-around service possible.

Took an old truck with A/C blower problems. Kevin spent time diagnosing the problem and trying to find the part needed for the fix. Due to the age of the truck, the part was unavailable. Kevin refused to let me pay him for any of the work he had done because he felt if he didnt fix the problem, I shouldnt have to pay for it. Hes one of the good guys.
