This place was awesome. Not from California we were on vacation and we rented a car and somehow got a bolt in the drivers side tire. Got right in was fixed within a 1/2 hour didnt charge me nothing for the repair. But I still gave the repair man lunch money. Thanks again John from Pennsylvania.

Paul is the best!! This shop can fix everything in your car and they have great prices for tires too. For more than 10 yrs. Ive been taking all my familys cars here when they dont seem quite up to par. When I come back to pick them up they are working like a dream and for a very reasonable price. You cant do better than Fountain Valley Tire and Auto.

I took my car there on the recommendation from my girlfriend. She and her family have been taking their cars their for sometime now. They did a great job, on budget and on time. I came from the city of Orange for their service. I HIGHLY recommend you take your car there as well.

Long overdue review.Recently one of the front tires of our work truck became low.So I assume the employee that was driving it, hit some thing hard enough to pop a tire or create a small leak.I then assumed, it was time that all of the tires needed to be changed. It’s an older work truck so there’s no tire sensors that need to be calibrated. We searched online for used tires and within the same day found a pair of very nice tires that are comparable for our truck. At the same time we took the truck in I again assumed that we needed to get the steering aligned bc of whatever was hit.So I took it to Fountain Valley tire and auto.My business partner has already dealt with the owners and spoke very highly of them so I decided to take the work truck here to have the work performed switching out the old tires and aligning the steering.A short while after dropping off the truck I received a phone call that the truck was ready for me to pick up.And the bill was $0.00They charged me nothing for the time to swap out the old to new tires and once up on the lift realized the truck still had perfect alignment.Long story short this company is very trustworthy!!!I fully intend on bringing all of my personal vehicles to this establishment and I could not speak higher of a company with such outstanding integrity and trustworthiness. Thank you for all parties involved that helped make this experience so enjoyable.

My Uncle reference me here. Since then I have told multi friends and two have gone there and they both loved it as well. Twice now I have bought a car and have taken it to them to check on the vehicle and both time never charged me to let me know I needed to return the cars right away. They work on foreign cars as well. Im also a christian which is why my uncle reference me here. They are honest people. Thats hard to find in a new mechanic. Thanks you guys. I would never take my business anywhere else.

100% joyful experience, every time. Consistently professional, honest, top-rate job, by gentlemen of honor. Respectful, trustworthy and good humored. None of the rip off or condescension that customers dread. The right job at price. They even add value by explaining and recommending properly. EXCELLENT

I had a nail in my tire, going out of town so I needed it to be fixed quickly. My local tire place told me it could not be plugged because it was too close to the sidewall; also that my front tires were bad (but they had a special three for one, and “special” financing). 🤨 I remembered a friend highly recommending Fountain Valley Tire and Auto and I was SO thankful to be seen right away! “Ma’m, your tires are FINE” were the sweetest words I’ve heard all day, and they were able to patch the tire – not charging me a dime. Needless to say, I have a new auto place! I just took my car there for an oil change and continue to be pleased with the professionalism and timeliness of the individuals that work there. Thank you!

Great service. I really needed air bags installed on my F250. My normal service companies were unable to get what I needed because of circuit board shortages.Roy researched the available equipment and found a compatible set,-up that works great!

Very nice people, so much better than dealership. It actually ended up costing less than the original estimate (and less than the dealership). Love it here, was recommended by a friend, and will be taking our cars here from now on.

Fountain Valley Tire and Auto is beyond amazing!! I have used a lot of mechanics in my day and no one even comes close to these guys. Not only are they great mechanics, they are also honest. I trust them so much that I bought a used car from them. Thank you guys and keep up the great work. — Michelle

We have had all of our automotive repairs done here for manyyears and have found them to always be extremely honest in their assessments.

Called a few places for the upgrade I needed. Roy was the only one that was responsive and very patient in answering all my questions. Despite his busy schedule, there was never a hint of rushing me off the phone. It’s hard to find mechanics who are professional, patient, honest and doesn’t squeeze you for every nickel they can. Before I left, Roy took the time to explain to me what I need to do to maintain the upgrade for optimum performance. I highly recommend this shop. I’ll definitey be coming back here for anything auto-related.

I started having my vehicles worked on at this location when I lived (literally) across the street from the shop. After moving to Irvine and then ultimately out to Yorba Linda, I realized that the only vehicle experts I wanted to deal with was the team at Fountain Valley Tire & Auto. I will happily make the 50 mile round trip to have my vehicles serviced by Paul, Roy and the team. Throughout the 10+ years Ive been a customer, Ive always felt like I was given honest and accurate assessments of the problems and fair prices to fix them. They have ALWAYS treated me with kindness and respect, never rushing me off the phone or too impatient to stop and make sure all of my questions have been answered. When it makes sense, Paul and Roy always provide multiple options to address the issue at hand. I dont feel pushed in either direction, but always empowered to do what is best for me. They hold themselves accountable for a job well done and personally stand by their work. I trust the words that come out of their mouths and have never had that trust betrayed. The team is clearly experienced, technically competent and insightful....and their recommendations are always spot-on.Every tire that has ever been on any of my vehicles has come from FVT&A. Theyve earned my loyalty and Im a customer for life.

I have been using FV Tire and Auto for 18 years now and they have always been amazing. From working on my 71 VW bus in high school to multiple diesel trucks and a few Tacomas they have always been honest and professional. They just installed a brand new transmission on the wifes Sequoia and we couldnt be happier with the job.

Paul and Roy are the best guys in the business! As a single woman, I feel that I can completely trust them to be honest with me about what my car actually needs.

Review №38

I was referred to FV Tire by a friend of mine for some exhaust work. I was told by the owner Paul, “ no problem just need about an hour” since my vehicle is a work truck, I can’t leave down for repairs too long. I dropped off at a nice clean shop and was greeted by the owner. Paul called me 2 hours later and the truck was ready. Work was done perfectly. I have been loyal to another tire and brake company for 27 years. I will definitely be coming back for other needs.Thanks again for your hard work!!Hugh MarshallMarshall Pools Inc

Ive been bringing my cars to Paul (and Roy) for 15+ years. If you are looking for a place where you can drop your car off with complete confidence this is it. From the large stuff to the small stuff, its fixed, on time and reasonably priced. My wife and my daughters dont hesitate to bring their cars in as they are made to feel at home and that their best interests are being served.

Weve been coming here for over 10 years, through multiple cars and all sorts of services. Paul has always taken good care of us and I dont go anywhere else unless I have to. Im not a car guy and its hard to feel I can trust other mechanics since they could tell me anything and I wouldnt know, but I trust Paul and his guys fully, never led me wrong. Keep it up, guys!

I am so happy that this auto shop was recommended to me. I had an emergency tire situation. Paul, the owner, was so kind and helpful. He was honest and the price for the services was affordable. I will be using this shop for all future car services. It’s so nice to find a place that isn’t trying to rip me off.

My cars catalytic converter almost got stolen and the thieves, while attempted to do so, damaged several parts nearby. Paul and his team were very professional and thorough in explaining to me what they thought happened to my car and offer their solutions with more than fair price. Got my car back within a day and they even offer to let me know when the other part arrive so I can come in for a quick switch. Will come back. Love their services!

They had a full day of work ahead of my vehicle. They advised me it may not be done same day. I dropped my truck off at 830am and received a call it was ready at 5:05pm. If I was available to pick it up they’d stay over to allow me to pick it up.They replaced my oem suspension with fox smooth body and my oem coil springs with maxtrac front lift coils. My truck is sitting level and maintain perfect geometry with the factory control arms. They were professional and forthcoming. Looking at bring my Jeep here next.

Paul and his team of mechanics have been taking care of our 4 family cars for tires and service for over a decade now.

I purchased new tires here as well as had my alignment done. Most recently, yesterday, I had them rotate and re-balance my tires. No charge because I bought my tires from them. They always offer me a ride home which is above and beyond. I’m getting close to needing new tires again and you can bet that I will be making my purchase from here.

Review №77

5 star treatment every time, from convenience to pricing. I can’t quite remember how long I’ve been going to Fountain Valley Tire and Auto, but they are a household name in my family and I make sure I recommend them to all of my clients, co workers, community and friends. Paul and Roy are honest and go above and beyond to give fair, professional, honest service. I can go on and on about stories of the service we’ve received, and how they’ve beaten prices, or made sure I’ve had a ride to work, or repaired numerous tires for my teenage son or wouldn’t sell something to my mother when she thought she needed it. I’d just highly recommend you give Fountain Valley Tire and Auto a try and keep them in your contacts.

I heard the dreaded chirping from the tires a couple of days ago while driving and knew I most likely had to change my brakes.

Based on the adventures I go on and some feedback I provided to the staff, they made the recommendations for for the upgrades that is best suited for my 2018 Tacoma 4x4 sport. Purchased new Toyo 285/75/17, King shocks for front and rear of my 2018 Tacoma, and lifted the truck 3”. I placed the order on Thursday evening, had the work completed Friday, and was out enjoying the desert on Saturday.Extremely happy with the workmanship, product, efficiency and professionalism of the shop.CH, Fountain Valley CA

Nothing but mad props for this place. Both my recent visits went perfectly. First time around they replaced my front brakes and they did a great job, plus their prices were the cheapest around. Second visit a week later they replaced a strut, put on a new tire and did my alignment. Not only did they do a great job they were kind enough to let me bring in my own strut that i purchased to be used.

I took my car in for new tires. They gave me a good price. They told me also when it was going to be done. They kept their word on price and turn around time. Later, I had a flat. I brought it in to FV Tire and they plugged slow leak and roared tire for free-comes w/warranty. Their customer service is outstanding. The gentleman at the front counter is very fast and efficient. I have recommended to several people that they come by and take advantage of great prices and great service. I trust these folks!
