Bake Auto Care - Lake Forest (CA)

Chunyang Wang I found this shop on Google Maps and was impressed by the reviews, so I decided to give it a shot today. Just brought my car home, and Im so impressed that I couldnt wait to write this review standing up! I reached out yesterday for a quote on replacing the front axles (both) of my trusty 2007 Toyota Camry, and Mike presented an offer I couldnt refuse. I call them this morning, dropped off my car around noon today, and within a few short hours, I got the call to pick it up! The service comes with a one-year warranty, and by the way, Mike inspected the entire car for free. From my experience, its nearly impossible to find a reasonably priced yet top-notch auto shop in the outrageously expensive Irvine, but this place is the exception! From now on, its my go-to auto shop, and Ill be recommending it to all my friends. Hey Mike, if you keep this up, I wont be surprised to see 10 branches of your shop flourishing across Orange County in a few years! PS, Ill be back to share my thoughts if my car needs a second look!

Raquel Barker I appreciate these mechanics in not raking me over the coals by insisting on unnecessary replacing parts that I was being told I needed to replace . When it only cost me like $40.00 to fix the issue my car was having... Now years later Im back here with a different car so well see what this time will bring? Fingers crossed they can work their magic again!

Abdul Jabbar Shahnawaz ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I needed a SMOG test and after reading tons of negative reviews about nearby places—scams, upselling, overcharging—I was relieved to find Auto Mechanic Services (AMS) in Lake Forest, the only shop with consistent 5-star reviews. I called and was told no appointment needed—just first come, first served. I brought my car in and was out in 20 minutes. Nima was extremely professional, honest, and transparent throughout. I also found out they do oil changes, brake replacements, and general maintenance, so I’ll definitely be bringing all my cars here moving forward. Highly recommended!

Peter Gordon My vehicle registration notice arrived Friday in the mail and I needed a smog check. Called L&M and Colin got me initiated afternoon at 2:30. Done in 20 minutes. Great service and only $53.

Renee Gailey Steve and Ken were wizards on fixing my car. They do excellent work, and have reasonable pricing, They kept me informed every step of the way. My car is purring. Such a joy. Thank you!

J G New review February 21, 2025 MK7 GTI (Oil/Filter change, Wheel alignment, spark plugs and coils replaced), 2011 Scion TC (Clutch, Flywheel replacement, oil/filter change, tire replacement, wheel alignment.) Awesome service once again. We love the above and beyond customer service, high quality of parts and service, and the peace of mind. David and all his staff are great, excellent people, thank you for your excellent work. Very helpful, very knowledgeable, and honest. —————————- New review August 19, 2020- Again, visit after visit. David and his crew never disappoint. He gave us the best deal in the area on four new tires for our RAV4. Hankook GT 245/45R20. I thought I had good tires before, but this ones actually make a difference. The ride is A LOT more comfortable than my old ones (Same size, different brand.) this ones look nice and ride smoother. We love them. Service was excellent. Call and make an appointment would be my suggestion. David and Anthony are very knowledgeable in what they do. ——————————————————————— Old review- I literally have not enough words to put my thoughts into writing this review. I own a 2007 Saturn Sky. So I really have to be careful where I take my baby to. After some research I came across Mission Auto Center. It had very good reviews, nice stars so why not give a try. David is the owner and it was him who I communicated with from start to finish. I reached out through Yelp. He replied within an hour or so with his estimate for my car. I wanted my ST-X Coilover Kit installed, lower my car about 1", wheel Alignment, and an oil change. The car is already a bit low. David and his team really took care of my car. They carefully got my car on the lift (With some special accommodations since it was already low.) They worked on it pretty much all day, trying to get my Coilovers dialed in perfect, and they did. David was very helpful, I asked him tons of questions, he was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and very honest about his work. Awesome shop! Superb customer service! All-Star team!

Patrick Lam If youre a BMW owner, do your car and yourself a favor by coming here to get your BMW serviced. The owner, John, is a standup guy and will do his very best to help you out. I just recently got a BMW 330i and I got a oil change light and vehicle check notification and he walked me through everything I needed to know about the car and its maintenance to ensure that my car would last the longest it can. You get priority support here and youre not treated like just another customer. I fully trust them with my car because I know its coming from a place of genuine care and where they wont force anything nonessential. They are experts and know what they are talking about!

tworobinsons We were very happy with our experience at Porsche Irvine, especially with our sales associate Sophia Brault. She is a true professional who never pressured us and took her time to answer every question with skill. Everyone there was friendly and accommodating, and we left feeling like the transaction could not have been smoother. Thanks again to Sophia, and everyone at Porsche Irvine.
