Lake Elsinore Valley Auto Service/Marlar's

"They may be ok for american made but not so great with imports. They will fix your car.. but it will cost thousands. Still is way better than J&M Auto that will damage your car and say it's fixed and charge you hundreds for them to do it. They gave me my car back idling at 2500 RPM! Marlars has been trying to get it running right ever since."

"These dudes know what’s up. Spoke with Nick and he has Jaime do the work on my truck. I’m from out of town and was there on business when the starter on the truck stopped working. Call 4 different Ford dealerships and they either told me they couldn’t get the part or it would take a few days…. Was recommended to these guys and not only did they get the part right away, but they fixed it earlier than they initially quoted me. I cannot recommend these guys enough. In fact they impressed me so much I might drive my other trucks to them from out of state just because they are honest and fair. It’s hard to find a good shop, a honest shop, but these guys are it. Thanks Nick and Jaime. I’ll be see you guys soon."

"Took my minivan here to make sure it was safe for my 16 yr old to drive. They told me that my transmission was shot and offered to buy the van from me for $800. Said that a new transmission would be 8k. Since then I’ve found a mechanic that I trust. The transmission was fine. There was a crack in the radiator. Easy and not too expensive fix. What a joke."

"I’m completely satisfied with my experience at Marlar’s! My 1985 Toyota 4Runner had a blown head-gasket so I brought it in for repair. They were the first, and only, shop I called but I liked what I heard and they had lots of experience with 22RE engines. After pulling the head off we decided a complete rebuild was the best plan. I’ve never used this shop before so I took a big, and expensive, gamble despite the knowledge I have with with 22RE engines and general repairs. Carley and the team had excellent communication with me throughout the process. I was able to talk with their engine rebuilder personally so I knew exactly what was being done. Their mechanic did an amazing job getting all the work done and we even got the AC working again with the replacement of one line and a recharge. The rebuild came with a warranty and after 500mi they checked it all over for FREE! I’ve got over 1,000mi on it as of this review and it runs like a sewing machine! I’ve already recommended Marlar’s to a few Toyota peeps and I would certainly use them again for my other vehicles. Thanks Marlar’s!"

"Nick, Carly ,Steve and Alberto did an amazing job on both our vehicles. Our diesel truck engine was a mess and they did such a great job it runs like new. And they also worked on our Dodge truck which had to have the drive shaft and a few other things repaired. They kept us informed every step of the way and when we called or came by they never acted like we were a bother to them. They answered all our questions and even checks on us aft0er the trucks were done just to make sure we weren't having any issues. Thank you guy's for all you hard work and for going above and beyond to help us."
