I had a check engine light on in my vehicle and I took it to the two mechanics that I normally go to and they couldnt figure it out so I just by chance went here and they diagnosed it and fix the problem right away and when they diagnosed my car they spent 2 and 1/2 hours on it and only charged me for 30 minutes. Nice

I see so many good reviews here, so I send my car here to repair.. but unfortunately, I just send my car to there let them broke it more and charge more money...my car’s air condition stop working after set there over a year no drive ...I checked Freon before I send my car there , it’s show full..but they say it’s empty..I thought maybe I’m wrong ... since they make my air conditioning working again .. and not charge a lot ..so I just keep quiet.. but just run a month ... it stop working again .. and this time I recheck it , do empty!!

Simply put, I dont take my Honda CRV anywhere else for maintenance or repair. They are honest and reasonably priced, and know what they are doing. Sometimes you may have to wait to get in so plan ahead if possible.

So much fun with young children. The wind was great for kite flying. The boys totally loved climbing on the rocks and running down the beach. They had a great time!! And it was very entertaining watching the windsurfers and kite surfers! A little something for everyone!!

Expert Automotive saved me several hundred dollars on my 2004 Corolla’s a/c repair, compared to the dealer’s estimate. And they’re really nice guys too! Joe explained exactly what was going to be done, didn’t charge me to confirm the dealer’s diagnosis, and they used genuine parts. I’ll be back for all of my car’s maintenance needs!!

This shop has been great at keeping my old Honda and Toyota in tip top shape. They take their time to explain things to you and have really great advice. When I bring my vehicles into this shop I feel they are honest and helpful. I rely on my vehicles and my vehicles rely on Expert Automotive.

Very knowledgeable, honest and friendly. Weve been bringing all our vehicles to Joe and his business for years, and have never been disappointed. Highly recommend for Honda, Toyota, Acura and Lexus.

Honesty. Integrity. Very affordable with high quality work. Ive been taking my Honda vehicles here for over a decade. They are always upfront and honest with their estimates and repairs. I love how they tell me what repairs are for comfort or aesthetics or safety related. Quality is also paramount and it shows. Ive never had to take one of my vehicles back because something wasnt done right the first time. They are picky about the parts they use, genuine factory parts without the dealer markup.They used to take care of only Honda and Acura. But now they also do Toyota and Lexus.Overall great place to take your vehicle. You can trust them. They will provide you peace of mind.

Love them. They are honest and present great customer service. I have been going to them for about 7 years now. First with my Honda and now with my Toyota. Cant ask for better customer service. There arent many shops today with great morals and ethics but Expert Automotive has it all. Dad & Son know what a true business is about!! They offer it all. They are definitely a hidden little gem!!!!

I have been coming here for 10 plus years and have never had a problem. If something doesnt need to be fixed right away they will tell you. They never give you the run around and are very honest and trustworthy people . The few negative reviews dont give any detail and I guarantee theres more to that story that theyre not sharing. Trust the 4.8 out of 5 stars, you wont regret it.

They were referred to me by a neighbor and we have loved from the 1st visit, which was 5 years ago. The staff there is nice, efficient, knowledgeable and most importantly, not too pushy. Love that they are small business and they take pride in their work. I have referred 3 people and they have all like Expert Automotive also. Keep up the good work

These guys are the best. After 175k on my sons Accord (and it being used as a surfboard recently) it needed a few repairs and Expert Auto saved it!Theyre upfront, stand up guys. I just wish they worked on cars other than Hondas...or maybe I should buy ALL Hondas?Thank you for your hard work guys!

I went to bring my car in to get my starter fixed. I was met with polite professionals who took great care of my car and fixed what was wrong with it. I would definitely recommend to others. This is my second time going to them. I trust their expertise with my vehicle 100%.

I have been taking my cars to Expert Automotive for six years and trust them completely. Sometimes the dealership will mention something is wrong (taken in for recall) that has nothing to do with the recall. I take into Expert and two times they have said there wasnt a problem that the mechanic at the dealership mentioned. I have recommended Expert Automotive to my neighbors and they now are regular customers (since you started servicing Toyotas). Will buy either Hondas or Toyotas in the future because we have mechanics we trust.

Expert Automotive does an outstanding job every time I bring my old Honda Accord for maintenance and repairs. Father and son, Mike and Joe are down to earth, very friendly and honest on their opinions and recommendations they give to their customers including me. Big time👍I truly recommend Expert Automotive repairs to my relatives and friends.

I ONLY COME EXPERT AUTOMOTIVE. These are my go to guys. I trust these guys more than I trust the dealer. These guys know me by name. After the first couple times I went to them , I knew I didnt even need any more second opinions on price or the problem. They get the job done professionally and very clean. The shop is organized and clean and they never try to up-sell you on any parts or service. When it was time for a new car, they even told me that I didnt need a new one because they were trying to save me money. But when I decided to upgrade my car , I stuck with Honda because I couldnt imagine going to another shop. These guys are my true peace of mind !

I do most of the basic maintenance myself, but if I need anything else Expert Automotive is always my goto repair shop, no questions ask. They are very honest and professional. Ive been going there for years. I recently found out that they take care of other cars other than Honda. I definitely and have recommend them to family and friends.

Expert Automotive came highly recommended, so took my van to have the AC checked out. Found what was wrong, called to give me an estimate, had to order a part, but had it done early the next morning. Very friendly and courteous.

Expert could diagnose the issue with my Honda when Hondas mechanics couldnt. I now take both my Hondas to them and would recommend them to anyone else. Love supporting this family run business.

Im an autotech and i just recently started working for Expert Automotive. Let me just say as a mechanic that takes pride in what I do, this is one of the best shops Ive ever worked for. They always get dealership parts and always want to fix the vehicle the right way. There are a lot of shops out there that use after market parts trying to increase profits. Those parts are inferior to dealership parts. Im very proud to work for a company that does honest work and takes pride in doing the job right. Oh, and treats their mechanics well, like an asset to the company. Thank you Expert Automotive.

Review №32

Its dang rare to associated the words trust and auto repair together; in my mind Expert Automotive is exactly that case. I have been bringing our 2006 Acura to Expert Automotive for the past 3 or 4 years and I have always received GREAT service from Mike and Joe. Scheduling a visit is as easy as sending an email and getting a speedy response. You leave always understanding the work that was done and why it was needed.I trust Expert Automotive so much that I brought our car in today just to have it looked over before my daughter takes it to college. I knew that they would honestly look it over and let me know if anything was amiss. Nothing was and after a inexpensive oil change the car is ready for the trip.Thanks Joe and Mike--You run a great shop!-Rob

These guys are honest and upfront about what is required versus what is reccomended and let you choose. Car runs great after timing belt and water pump replacement. Needed a new engine motor mount after which transmission shifts so much better. They give dealership service at a fair price. I reccomend them.

My experience with Expert Automotive for the past several years has been consistently excellent. I live near Roseville Ca., and I gladly make the drive to Elk Grove to have Expert service my Toyotas and Acura. I have sent 3 family members to Expert which is just about as strong a recommendation as one can give.

Review №40

Started taking my Acura there for service earlier this year and have been pleased with every visit. They know what they are doing and charge a fair price for the work. I have had both routine preventive maintenance, as well as repairs done there this past year. Each time, things were done right the first time and I did not have to go back to have anything readdressed. Have also used their trip check service to be sure my car, which now has 250,000 miles on it, is ready for a long road trip. I have no hesitancy recommending them. The only reason I dont give them the fifth star is that their waiting area is not the most comfortable spot to hang-out while you wait for your oil to be changed, but is certainly functional.

Review №43

Mike and Joe of Expert Auto treat me and my vehicle as if I were family. Discovered them over 3 years ago and wouldnt let anyone else touch my 2004 Honda Accord (over 275,000 miles on it) for repairs and maintenance. I totally trust them because they give me straight information--dont try to oversell me--and perform good work at fair prices. Only drawback is they work only on Honda or Toyota products. That means if my Honda ever wears out, Ill have to buy either a Honda or a Toyota. Are they really that good, that I’d buy a car brand just so they can service it? Yes!

My Dad has taken all of our Hondas here since before I could drive. Im in my 30s now and will ONLY take my Honda here to be fixed. Id only buy a Honda too because I dont trust any other mechanic! They even answer all of my questions! (even when I am probably being annoying haha). A++++

Review №48

My 2004 Honda Pilot was making a lot of noise. Upon the advice of the Yoakams, I brought my car in for repair. Joe was so nice and said the people who installed the brakes didnt secure all the parts. Expert Automative technicians repaired it for $27.50. They did not try to sell me more than my car needed. Love the honesty!

Review №52

Ive been taking our Hondas to Expert Auto since 2001 if I recall correctly. I trust Mike and Joe (back then it was Mike and Steve) to take care of my cars just as they would take care of their own cars. They have helped us out with simple work like an oil change, all the way to replacing the transmission in my Accord and I think I just hit 100,000 miles on that transmission, coincidentally!One of the things they did for us on maybe our second time taking a car in was to listen to a noise that we had noticed, and then determine that it was an issue Honda had a recall for. Rather than do the repair and charge us for it they directed is to the dealer and told us to have the work handled via the recall. Talk about honesty! My cars are overdue for service but its on my radar to get at least one of the cars in soon. The other was just in an accident and Im waiting to hear what the repairs will cost and then decide on if its time to upgrade to something bigger.

Learned about Expert Automotive ~2003 through a friend whos meticulous about his cars. Went there through 2014 until my 98 Civic was in a minor fender bender that, due to the age of the car, totalled it.I had a few too many mediocre to bad experiences at the nearby Honda dealerships service department, so this was my first foray into an independent mechanic. I had always heard how overpriced dealership service departments are, but wow!I love that Expert Auto specializes in Honda/Acura and Toyota/Lexus and has factory trained techs. Most of all, they are trustworthy! Never did they recommend replacing items before they needed to be. And, if they saw something was still ok for now but would probably need replacing the next time, they would give me a heads up.My car was always as clean and scuff/ding free as when I dropped it off. Something that has not always been true with my replacement Subaru.Honest service, factory trained techs, better prices. For me its about paying the honest business, not the one that I cannot quite trust to ALWAYS do right by me. To me, that is worth giving up the free car wash and shuttle ride that the dealership service departments provide.I only wish Expert also serviced Subaru, so I could take the Outback that replaced my Civic to Expert Automotive! Maybe someday, if Subarus following keeps growing as it has and it makes business sense for Expert.

I have been taking my Hondas here since I was 16 years old! My whole family now takes there cars here as well. They are the most honest, genuine and personable mechanic shop Ive ever come accross. I made the mistake of taking my car elsewhere because I had a coupon and the shope told me I needed other things done and not just an oil change, I declined and took my car back to expert automotive where Mike and Steve told me those items were not necessary. I have not taken my car anywhere else since then! I love these guys and trust them completely!!!
