Engine repair service near Alpine, CA

High quality auto repair in La Mesa CA,

Eric and his team were great. They didn't have my tire in stock and my dealership didn't have time to change my tire this weekend, so i purchased the tire from the dealership and these guys took care of me free of charge. Not only that, they informed me that the dealership sold me a used tired when i bought a new one. I appreciate these guys for being upfront and giving me advice on the situation. Will be returning for all repairs in the future.

Brought my Honda Element in for an oil leak. Other place wanted to replace head gasket, but Rusty diagnosed it to just the valve cover gasket and camshaft end caps. Saved me from unnecessary repairs. BnC seems to be very honest and only fix what really needs to be fixed. They are not trying to sell you or talk you into all kind of repairs. I can highly recommend them and will bring our cars there for any needs in the future.

AWFUL! Avoid at all costs. Expensive, damaged parts, rude, closed early despite telling me he would be there when I came for parts. I brought business to this shop four years ago, and they were nice, inexpensive, and very helpful; so despite recent bad reviews, I still went there. I wish I hadn't. I needed bearings and seals pressed out and new parts pressed in to a pair of spindles. The price doubled since i last went ($25 each in the past, now $45 each). I received a call that the parts were done and I could pick up until 4pm, I told them I would be there just before 4pm. I called at 3:45 to confirm I was on the way, no answer. I got there at 3:55 and shop is closed (shop next door said they left over 15 min ago). When I picked up parts the next morning, I told the guy I said i'd be there by 4pm, and they were closed. HE BECAME HOSTILE, BLOCKED THE DOOR AND GOT IN MY FACE: "I'M A PRIVATELY OWNED SHOP, I CLOSE EARLY OFTEN AND WHEN I WANT TO! IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE!" Now my truck needs to sit out of commission an extra day since he wanted to go home early. When I told him this, his response was "THAT'S TOO BAD." On top of his attitude, he also ruined seals on the opposite side of the spindle, that should not have been touched, thus costing me an additional $45/each. I would NEVER do business here again, he obviously does not care about customers. I will pay double and go well out of my way to a different shop rather than ever going here again. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

These guys are the best!! I had a truck load of furniture and a hole in the tire that was leaking very fast. . I pulled into this shop and they fixed it it no time!! Very nice people!! I highly recommend this place!! Tiffany Angel

Five Stars all the way. Stellar Customer Service, Diagnosis and Repair. John was honest, fair, efficient and made the service experience simple and enjoyable. The Mechanic Josh, although humble and quiet was on top of his game in every aspect of the service and repair. Very impressed with the personalized vehicle service and customer experience.

I love FTS because I can trust them. That's a big thing for me when going to see a mechanic, especially for the first time. They have the most incredible reviews and I got a glowing referral for their services. They lived up to ALL the hype. I went in for an oil change and I got a no-nonsense assessment of what needed to be done and when. They didn't try to oversell me or get me to fix things that weren't in need of repair. I really appreciate that! They also worked quickly and got me in with little notice and completed my service before the estimated time. I will definitely be back to FTS, in fact, I have my other car scheduled for this week. :)
