Cen Cal Automotive - Santa Cruz (CA)

5 /5 Stefhany Figueroa: I’ve had a great experience with Cen Cal Automotive! The team is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and honest.David , Steven and Allen took the time to explain everything clearly and offered fair, competitive pricing. It’s not easy finding a shop you can trust, but Cen Cal truly delivers quality service with a personal touch. Highly recommend for anyone in the Santa Cruz area!

5 /5 Kai Adam-Chinn: The saying goes “cheap, fast, or good- pick two.” I genuinely feel that when it comes to Cen Cal Auto you don’t need to pick, they check all three boxes. We’ve had several cars worked on by them, including a lift on my Tacoma and wheel bearings on our Crosstrek. It’s always been an easy exchange with prompt service, fair pricing and quality work. I respect the way these guys do business and would recommend them to anyone looking for an unpretentious and honest shop.

5 /5 Linda Evans: My first time at Cen-Cal was an excellent experience. The front desk was friendly; provided a place for me to wait. Work started on my car shortly after I checked in and was completed in a thorough and timely manner. Charge was very reasonable. I will definitely use them for ongoing maintenance on my car.

5 /5 Derek Moreno: What a great shop! I called a handful of Honda shops and they were recommended to me by another shop who didnt wasnt such a large job. So I called Cen Cal and they accepted my Honda Element for a head gasket replacement. All other shops turned me down or quoted me some insane prices. This shop didnt have the cheapest quote, but I liked the vibe I got from the initial conversation. Got a few extra maintenance items done since I had the engine apart. Communication was great which I appreciated. When I visited the shop to pick up my car I was impressed with how organized and clean it was. Any future work will be by these guys!

5 /5 Lori Homstad: We needed a Pre- Sale Vehicle Inspection in East Sant Cruz. These professionals fit us in right away and only took an hour for $90. So grateful for the Peace of mind. We walked to nearby pizza place for outdoor dining and use of toilets.
