D&T AUTO REPAIR 9513 Black Mountain Road, San Diego, CA 92126

"The boss sitting in front of the computer asked me for a lot of prices.Later, I found someone else but used 10% of the price and it was repaired."

"I had a great experience at D&T Auto Repair! They took my car in same day and had me all fixed up in just a couple hours. They were willing to install customer-supplied parts which most shops don’t do. Their pricing was very fair compared to other estimates I got. They were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. As someone who prefers to do all my own car work and only take my car to the shop when a job is too big, I get the feeling that D&T is very transparent and does not try to take advantage. 10/10 will visit again."

"Two things make this place different from many others in a good way: they call you and make sure you agree to proceed if they find something about the car that can change the initial estimate, you are not coming to pick your car having no idea what you are going to pay. Another great thing is if something is still wrong after you get the car back they will not all of a sudden turn their backs to you. It may be my personal lack of luck but in a number of more expensive places they stop talking to you the moment you pay the bill and the card reader says "Approved". The manager will show you the parts they replaced and explain what they had to do. In many places there are more managers than mechanics. They charge you at the front desk and learn what was done from the invoice they give to you to pay. At D&T it is different. While waiting in the line for 10 minutes I heard from others "thank you very much, great service, I will tell my friends about your place" - this was when a diagnosis was given without charging the cost because there was not a big problem with his starter as the owner initially thought. I wish this was an average level of service in every car shop but unfortunately my experience is that in San Diego customer service is very poor. D&T have their bar set above the average."

"This is the only place I've ever been that does not automatically try to sell you new rotors if you need new brake pads. They are up front about everything and will try to save you money. Quality of the repairs is good, too. Highly recommended."
