Auto repair service near Taft, CA

Ive never posted a review before, but in this situation i really felt i needed too. So we bought a 1958 Cadillac over the weekend & decided too drive it 600 miles home. We ended up breaking down in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night. It was snowing really bad. A young man named cody helped us out & towed us to a hotel in taft. He also recommended a gentleman named gene that was a mobile mechanic. So i called gene in the morning on new years day, explained to him what happened & within a hr he was at our hotel & had the problem diagnosed in no time. Not only did he fix it, he also checked out the whole car to make sure we didnt run into anything else. We were back on the rode in no time. Right as we got home, i got a call from gene making sure we got home ok!!! This is one hell of a man!! Thank you gene!! jesse & rachel

I was just starting an RV road trip when my power steering pump quit. I was towed to Performance, and I could not have had better luck. They found a replacement pump for me and installed it, working three hours past their closing time to get me back on the road. Very thoughtful about the work and kept me informed as it progressed.

I text a picture to Mike he said boy that’s an old RV in and I said yes it’s a 94 Sierra he said that those gears might not be available so he looked at his shop couldn’t find him and took two days and looked on the Internet I guess and found them had them in today great service would use them again on my new fifth wheel I’m getting rid of the 94Thanks Mike

These guys are great. While traveling on vacation, I experienced a pan gasket leak, (just replaced by another shop in San Diego) and by chance pulled into this shop. The manager and crew got us back on the road in record time and saved day one of our very precious vacation time. If I lived in Bakersfield, I would take all of my cars to this shop. M.

This an older location, but welcoming. Setting an appointment couldn't be easier, and the staff is eager to meet your exact needs. Justin is an insanely busy man, but an excellent multi-Tasker, and the epitome of professional, a true machine. The staff's knowledge on mechanical aspects, along with speed, and customer service, are unbeatable. There's a reason why this location is so busy, and I recommend them. Ariel Earhart

I went over to Brandons truck repair for an oil change, little did i know that they have an excellent inventory in tires. I'm glad i stopped by i got low Pro 22.5 Bfgoodrich for a great deal, the tire manager provided an excellent service and great prices!!!!

Awesome customer service I have taken my 3 vehicles to them for the last 3 years. Reyde Tucorazon

I`ve been with Perez Auto & Truck Repair for many years and sincerely appreciate the personal and exceptional service that keeps my car running smoothly—which keeps me running smoothly too! Hard to find these days! Great service.

We had a roadside emergency while traveling through Bakersfield. We found Scotty's Auto Repair on Google. We contacted him, told him the symptoms & he said he could and would look at it right away. Had our vehicle towed to his shop & he got to work on it right away. He is meticulous about his work, his estimate was very reasonable and accurate and even when he discovered another issue while working on our vehicle, he contacted us and proceeded to fix everything extremely well. His standards are high & will not do anything halfa**ed. Our final bill was very reasonable especially considering he worked well into the night to get us back on the road! Need a Great, Honest, Talented mechanic go to Scotty's Auto Repair in Bakersfield.

contacted them because my tint is bubbling. the tint was done 6/8/04, it has a lifetime warranty. i spoke to a man who said he bought the business a few years ago from his employee's father. said he would get back to me in a couple days, that was a couple weeks ago. have not heard from him since. the phone number is the same but no one answers. you can't leave a message, the mailbox is full. i will go back over there and leave another note, if no response i will file a claim with the BBB.

Do yourself a favor by not shopping at Auto Sounds of Bakersfield. Shop somewhere else unless you don't mind wasting a lot of your own time. First of all, this place is very busy, which in some cases could be a good sign. However, I believe in this case it is their downfall. Auto Sounds of Bakersfield’s showroom lacks any type of visual organization and it looks more like a warehouse than a place for customers to try out products. Even Auto Sounds of Bakersfield’s outside advertising billboard is broken with pieces of glass or plastic knocked out appearing long overdue for repair. How does Auto Sounds of Bakersfield’s lack of luster relate? Well, it should have been a red flag for me about the type of service I would receive as a customer at Auto Sounds of Bakersfield’s. While the staff are very friendly and appear to be very knowledgeable, don't get sucked into dropping your vehicle off on a Friday at 9:00am only to find out they don't even have the necessary parts to begin the install. Auto Sounds of Bakersfield’s ensured me not to worry that they would get started on the vehicle and once the part arrived at 11:00 it would be used to finalize the install. At 2:30pm, after calling Auto Sounds of Bakersfield, and not getting any real information whether the install was complete, I arrived back at the store to see for myself what was going on. I found my vehicle sitting untouched. When I confronted the owner's son he told me; " UPS is here everyday at 11:00, they must be running late, but when they get here we are ready to get the job done." As a customer, I asked why Auto Sounds of Bakersfield didn't track the package or call UPS since it was far past UPS’s regular scheduled delivery time. Auto Sounds of Bakersfield had no answer other than they were really busy and UPS delivery is beyond their control. Now working as the customer, I personally phoned UPS for Auto Sounds of Bakersfield to figure out why shipping was running nearly 4-hours late. In a matter of minute

These half-as# 'Mechanics" are HACKS, I asked them to check for a coolant leak with my oil change, they said everything was fine. I took my car to a REAL MECHANIC & he said and idiot could see the coolant AND an oil line leaks. I think they just added more oil to my car & nothing else.

Please Do Not Ever Go to this transmission repair shop, it is a nightmare. I went in thinking I was getting a decent deal on a used transmission, but once it was put in my vehicle has had more problems then what it came in with! These mechanics definitely did not know what they were doing and I have spent over 2000+ on just trying to fix this problem. To top it off the person in charge kept telling me that the transmission was not the issue it was something else, but they didn't know what. We had to take it to another mechanic in order to figure out what the problem was and guess what, it was a transmission issue that for some reason Economy Transmission couldn't figure out?? I wish I would have never came to this place and I hope none of you have to experience the horrible service that I have had to endure.
