Monterey Auto Service

"Very competent with a well organized shop. I feel lucky to have a reliable mechanic in the vicinity. We stop here first. We have yet to have an issue that Mark can't deal with."

"Professional, transparent, quick, and understanding. Mark knows what he’s doing and no BS. My car started shuddering badly plus check engine went on, i almost panicked but saw this shop on Maps and good ratings so i prayed. Said he was full up but he’d take it in and call me. (Did i mention it was near monsoon weather conditions?) Did the repair and done by the following afternoon. What a pro."

"The proprieter, Mark, runs a clean and organized shop. More than once he has bailed me out when I had low tire pressure and was a little panicky- for free. He is consciencious, thorough, kind and considerate. He has a great reputation among us neighbors in this 'hood. Two weeks later: My trusty car is sorely neglected and needs an emergency oil change. Mark looks patiently at me, the idiot car owner, and once I agree, performs a bunch of safety measures, rotates cars, other checks. It's a bit higher than what I planned to pay but well worth it. This is your safety and he is looking out for you! Forget the corner oil change for $40 unless you are pretty handy, or your partner is. This is an investment in your safety."

"The best auto repair services in the Glen Park (Glen Canyon) area. Mark is got to be the most polite, courteous, humble and knowledgeable auto mechanic individual I ever encounter to worked on my Xterra. My Xterra was having some issues about loosing speed, and power while driving on the freeway. It did not take him in long enough to pin point the issue (a cracked head on one of the spark plug wires) creating an electric field between the hood and the distributor cap thus making the engine stall while in motion. He recommended replacing all spark plug wires. Meanwhile, he cover the crack with an electrical tape until the new set arrives. He did not charge me a penny, I was out of there in less than 30 minutes. I will bring my vehicle back to him for any other service in the future. He would not do unnecessary work on your vehicle unless it needs it, and according to factory recommended maintenance service. It is great, amazing and difficult to find a trustworthy mechanic nowadays. It looks like I found a great one and in my neighborhood. Now, the dealer would have kept my Xterra all day and charged me an arm and a leg for other things that were not wrong with my vehicle. It happened in the past, in fact, I paid for services they claimed they did, but did not. Never again. Thanks Mark, WLevy"

"I've been going here for 6 years for oil changes, and recently for an entire clutch replacement and brake repair. Mark's honesty, diligence, and helpfulness keep me coming back."
