Radiator repair service near Elk Grove, CA

They have the best costumer service and there workmanship is top notch. I have live in this area 20 years and have never felt this good about a shop.

Needed a car badly. Went into Future Ford off Madison to find one. Didn't have high hopes. Was soon approached by JC Rosales and he was pleasant and friendly but made it easy that he had a sense of humor. Looked around and finally found what I was looking for. Unfortunately it was a little over my budget but JC made it work. I was so grateful that he made it a good experience. Thank you again and I'm referring him to all my friends and family.

Jeremias took $3500 from me to put a used engine in my old car. Once he took possession of it and took the head off, the game was over. When removing your car and going somewhere else is no longer an option, you have the tiger by the tail. The "cost" kept increasing up to $1800 that I still (involuntarily) agreed to. ($1500 had been my target cost) The last day he told me the final price was $3100, (+ the $700 for the used, untested motor...which was BAD) without my having approved of THAT absurd figure. Many "chores" were charged as separate procedures to jack up the price. Charging hours of labor for motor mounts when the engine is being replaced anyway is one example. The engine had no oil pressure and the "engine" light was on. Smog was due in six weeks and a component was missing. I had to sell the car for junk ($49 at Pick N Pull) and I had to go to court. I won in court but he won't pay. The sheriff went for a "till tap" but couldn't collect any money because he does cash transactions from his pocket. His profile with the BBB and others was not consistent with his past life, as far as years in auto repair, etc. He knows every trick in the book. "If you give this man your ride, sweet memories will die." (slight variation of the Jim Morisson song) I have all the paperwork to prove these comments, from the greed-driven invoice from 1st Choice to the $49 receipt from Pick N Pull. In court he acts confused and thinks I should have brought it BACK to him! I'm actually a little curious to see how high his lack of shame would allow him to raise the price. Of course I regret paying the total to remove my car. I should have let him keep it, but I thought the legal route was the way to go. Well...not so much with this slick operator.

1st of all, We come to you. We offer what no other automotive repair can offer. "Transparency" What auto repair place do you know that will let you watch what they're doing and show you "why" you have a failure and then explain it to you in a way you can understand. This is what we do. Why? When we empower our clients with knowledge, they can begin to understand more about their vehicles so they can make the decisions that affect them on a daily basis, like checking their oil and coolant levels. Those two alone can save you thousands when you avoid running them dry. You are welcome to watch us in every aspect of the repairs. The only time we might ask you to stand back is while we are performing a hazardous task. You won't find that in too many places. So ask yourself, why would I want to drive across town or down the street to sit and wait? “My life is too busy to sit idle and unproductive”. I started this for you so you wouldn't have to wait or get picked up. Anything that doesn't require the motor to be taken out, we can do onsite. If there is a major issue and you want someone you can trust to get it repaired, we can take your vehicle to a garage we work with and stay in control of the repairs. Our sole purpose is to make sure that your vehicle gets the best possible repair with the least amount of money from your pocket.

If you've got a German Car, you need this garage! John, the owner, is always ready to hear your concerns and his shop is absolutely a MAZE of top-drawer equipment and tools. You always get a real "neighborhood friendly" feel, when coming to Silver Star.

Knowledgeable and very Professional. Arrived on time and finished job in expedient manner. So satisfied, that I'm already setting date for Dan to start another job on second car.

Got my 1995 Dodge caravan worked on after I had taken it to so many places and there was no change on it.

Finding an affordable, reliable, local auto repair business is challenging at best. Looking to support a local, honest, mechanic ... FOUND HIM! Paul was so personable, honest and forthcoming ... his family-owned and operated business was a God send. Thank you and your team for stellar customer service. Highly recommend his company - you won't be disappointed.

This is a great place to take your foreign auto. They have always been helpful and professional. I have not had any problem with any repair they have done. Would recommend them. Marilyn B.
