As many people in the reviews have said, Michael and the team are amazing. This is really the only auto repair place that I trust to give it to me straight and charge great rates. I have brought multiple cars over and, even though I moved to Gilroy, plan to use them whenever I need help. Oh, I didn’t even mention how fast they work.

This is my repair shop that I have used for many years. They are reliable, efficient and good at what they do. With this shop you do not have to worry about someone trying to scam you on repairs. Family owned business with whom I stand by wholeheartedly. The father is one of the mechanics and the son is the office manager.

Not very experienced in taking care of customers best interest and more interested in making a quick buck. If a car has an issue that cannot be fixed by a brief service and a part has to be replaced to actually fix the issues just let the customer know.

Michael was a great help in getting my car in for service quickly and the team performed my brake repair without delay. I will be using their services again in the future.

Been taking my vehicles to this shop for a long LONG time. My Mitsubishi, Mazda, Dodge and Infinity. My cars have always consistently recieved great service at a fair price. Ive never driven away thinking I think I just overpaid for this or that. Ive also never had to take any of my vehicles back to the shop due to this or that. Ive also never driven away feeling like this or that. Says a lot about a Auto Repair Shop!! Everyone there is hard working, friendly, genuine and do a great job. Thank you for taking car of my cars over the years!! 🚗 Go checkem out! 🚘

Absolute awesome experience here. Michael is the absolute best! Hes honest and thorough. He had my 15 year old 290,000 mile truck in tip top shape and safe for a 1000 mile road trip. Their prices are beyond reasonable and their work is top notch. Ive already recommended this place to several friends.

I thoughtI had a leaking head gasket because I was loosing coolant slowly. After checking my truck out I got the call I was dreading but it was the water pump not a head gasket. Much cheaper! They did a great job replacing the pump. Very refreshing to find honest reliable auto repair! I will definitely use Reliable Auto Repair for all of my vehicles. Thanks!

Ive been a regular customer of Reliable Auto Repair since 2014. I drive a 1976 Buick Century Wagon and a 2012 Toyota Camry. Both are kept in top running condition by Michael and his staff. Keeping a 44 year old car in good condition can be a challenge but Reliable Auto Repair seems to have no trouble getting parts or diagnosing any issues that come up. The staff is professional and courteous. Ive never left feeling like I paid too much for the services received. Their prices are reasonable and the quality of their work can not be questioned!

Ive been brining my vehicles to this shop for about ten years. The level of service is bar none, let alone the work. Its difficult to find a mechanic/mechanics you can truly trust and this is exactly why I continue to come to Reliable Auto Repair. Michael explains and recommends exactly whats needed. I highly recommend people to bring their vehicles here for said reason and because you will be supporting a local business.

Michael is an excellent communicator, extremely knowledgable, and has a good sense of humor -- even at 7am on a Monday. Their estimates are accurate and reasonable, outlining what repairs are important or a safety issue, and what can be deferred. Ive brought 2 vehicles to him for a variety of service items as well as diagnosing &repairing. His team did the work on both very well -- and got everything right the first time. Reliable is our familys go-to mechanic now.

By far the best automotive shop Ive ever been to. Mike runs the shop and is HONEST, respectful, and well educated. He has been present at the shop EVERY time Ive walked in for the last 10 years.He frequently gives me options on how Id like to proceed with repairs, often times patching me up and sending me on my way for little to FREE. After this many years of business together, I consider Mike the ultimate professional and a good friend. I havent trusted my car with anyone else in a decade. You shouldnt either.If you want the highest quality work for the lowest price, you wont find it anywhere else.Love you guys! Never leave!!!

Brought in our 2004 camry which was long due for some repairs. Michael gave a detailed breakdown of the items that were in need of repair and answered my questions about them.I had AAA do a diagnostic on the car a year back but waited to do the repairs due to the cost and this car not being heavily used much until now. Michaels assessment of the car was pretty much the same, but his quote for most of the repair items was lower.He waited for my directions on which ones to fix and got the job done in a timely manner. Ill be doing heavy repairs like this with Reliable Auto again in the future.

Youll like dealing with Michael, but simply listen to their customers as they come in to drop off or pick up their car. Youll understand why I only use this business for my automotive repair and advice.

Great place. I take all of my company and personal vehicles here. Theyre honest and tell you whats needed and if they can handle the job. They dont waste your time. Ive been to many other mechanics that just blew smoke and when it came time to pay it was a lot more than the quote. Ill keep coming back.

I chose Reliable Auto because of the great reviews and am glad that I did! My AC in my Honda stopped working on Wednesday, I called Michael on Thursday morning, took it to the shop on Thursday afternoon and it was repaired by 1pm on Friday! I needed it fixed before Saturday morning to drive an hour north for work and he made it happen! Because the AC compressor/clutch was not working, I was scared to drive it and cause more damage.Thank you Michael! It works great now!

Another shop trying to take advantage of the vulnerable. contracting a $100 to diagnose to ensure they have you on the hook for repairs regardless of the cost. The OWNER of the shop of which I spoke to was unwilling to give me his information after he refused me service because I was asking him questions about his costs.

Called 9 am in the morning to ask for a battery replacement. Was advised to come in 30 minutes and battery will be replaced within 2 hours. It’s 2 pm and car is sitting in the same place. This place is an honest to god joke.

Review №33

If you’re a woman in need of an oil change or repairs, please run far, far away from this place. After getting a normal fully synthetic oil change, randomly being quoted $3,000 in “needed repairs” I declined multiple times, and when I received my vehicle they may have broken my newly purchased car on purpose as the same day of service it mysteriously had a $600 part problem in the clutch mechanism rendering it impossible to drive and dangerously broken as I was on a street heading home.When I had it taken in to a reputable mechanic who works at a Shell, he let me know in his 37 years of being a mechanic he had NEVER seen the stick shift clutch mechanism piece split perfectly in half like that.........When I got itemized car repair quotes from 3 different mechanics in San Jose, Milpitas, and San Mateo after the stick shift piece repair, I noticed a massive difference in pricing ($350, $570, $227) compared to Reliable Auto Repair’s $3,000 recommendations.I absolutely hate places that target certain customers and prey on them for money. If you possibly can please have a man go in for you for any future oil changes and avoid the discriminatory hassle. And don’t go here. Please. They’re a giant lawsuit waiting to happen.

First time customer - soon to be long time customer. Michael was courteous, friendly, and knowledgable. Gave me a quote within an hour after doing a full look-over of my truck - and did the repairs in a few hours. Got a plan for further repairs at lower cost than I had anticipated. Super!

The old guy at the front desk is rude and lazy! He told me that they pay people for all these 5 star yelps and that my car didnt need to be serviced by looking under the hood real quick. I really dont understand how anyone could turn away business like that. I will never go back there again.

To whom it may concern, everyone knows how hard it is to find a good, honest and reliable mechanic ( no pun intended), while look no further . Michael J. is the general manager of Reliable Auto Repair and is the place to take your vehicle for all your auto repair needs . He really stands behind his work . Hes both professional, honest, and above all reasonable . So if you do one thing this year, save yourself some time, money and above all peace of mind, take your business to rReliable Auto Auto Repair for all of your automotive needs.

Review №49

Went there a few times. The owner seems nice.The good: their fluid exchange package is low-priced. 3 fluid exchange for $99.The bad: My A/C does not work. It would not hold the coolant for more than a day. Inspection was free. At first their technician told me I had a blown compressor. I brought in a compressor from a junk-yard. One day after the comressor is replaced, the AC will not start. This time it was the high side valve. Had it replace and recharged. It lasted two days. Then I was told that the monifold has a (old) hole, and the price tag is $500. At that moment I stopped.how good is their service? You tell me.
