Client Testimonials

Erin Fujioka

Gary and his team have been my mechanics for 15 years. He is honest, fairly priced, and never does more than your car needs. As a young adult, Gary cared for three of our cars, always providing above-board service and never unnecessary repairs just to make money. I highly recommend Gary’s Auto Service. I have moved to La Jolla and still go to the trouble of bringing my car to him over anywhere else.

Steve

Gary’s Automotive in Santee was recommended to me by Al’s Barbershop, and that is one of the best recommendations I’ve had. Gary is honest, trustworthy, and quick. The first time, he replaced the fuel pump in my gas tank on my 2001 Chevy van. This time, it was the radiator, which was under warranty from a different auto repair shop. He understood and got it back together so I could take it over and get the warranty work done. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Gary’s Automotive.

Gary’s shop is the best. It’s like a family here, and I trust them completely with my Benz. Gary always shows me the old parts when something needs to be replaced. When I lost my debit card and was waiting for a new one, he let me take my car home before I paid him. One time, I let a guy I was dating drive my car, and he broke it and tried to patch up a part without telling me. Gary told me. This is a trustworthy shop with quick, excellent service. You should come here!
