Simple Auto Repair - Santa Rosa (CA)

Gary Corda Dont even beginning thinking about doing any business with this man. He did show up, but began by telling me that his companies credit card system was being repaired and he couldnt take credit cards. He said he would make an estimate, and I would have to pay him in cash. I called my warranty company and I gave Kirk the phone to speak with the agent. He was on the phone for 20 minutes and then hung up. Kirk told me that all of the repairs would be covered and I believed him. All I would have to do is submit the invoice and after the deductible they would reimburse me the difference. I then gave Kirk $1,900.00 in cash He did leave me a detailed hand written invoice. After that he left and never returned to finish the job. I tried calling Kirk and the phone rolled over to the DMV drunk driving division. I also called the warranty company, and they admitted that they had spoken with Kirk but no discussion was done regarding coverage. After I submitted the invoice they refused it saying that it couldnt be understood. There were so many red flags and I was foolosh. Kirk had horrible teeth to me indicating to me a drug usage and his white Chevy suburban 2001 was all beat up. He did a little work but I am going to have a reliable repair business redo everything as well as the undone tasks. This company will take a credit card after the work is complete and I will know what the warranty company will pay. By all means, do not do any business with this thief. I have called the police and the district attorney is beginning an undergoing complete investigation. I have family that are investigators and they are really taking this seriously. This will be my repayment. R

Christine Olibas Very friendly, thorough, quick, accommodating and well-priced. They took great care of our Audi. Thank you so much!!

Spencer Marks These guys are the best. Customer service was great and they made me feel welcome. The owner is a stand up guy and had a wealth of knowledge. I found my new smog and repair shop.

Kaytlyn Becker Jorge is the best! My boyfriend took our car to Valvoline to get a taillight changed, and when we got the car back the check engine light turned on. They said they had changed our oil and transmission fluid (even though my boyfriend had gotten that done a week prior). I immediately thought that they messed with something under the hood to get more money out of repairs. Jorge was able to take me in on short notice and he was able to figure out the problem. He asked my boyfriend if anyone else had worked on the car as there was tubes disconnected! Thank you Jorge for being an honest and kind mechanic. We will return to you in the future!

Nick Vallis The best pizza ever and great service with perfect delivery too. Ive been going for 15 plus years.

Ahmyiah turner I love this Auto shop and the owner is really nice and really funny (which is my uncle). I do not know how to drive yet but when I do get my license I will go Raul’s Auto Service any day, because of the great customer service and fair pricing.

Ashley McFarland Bernard is very honest and reliable. He has been fixing my cars for the last 20 years never any issues.

Amber Vogt ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Lifesaver During Finals Week – Thank You, Charlie! When my car broke down unexpectedly, I was in a tight spot, especially with finals week approaching. I had no idea who to trust for auto repairs, but Dunleavy Automotive came through for me in a way I’ll never forget. From the moment I reached out, Charlie took the reins. He guided me step-by-step on how to get my car to his shop, identified the issue swiftly, and communicated thoroughly throughout the process. I felt completely covered and didnt have to worry about a thing. He fixed my car incredibly fast, allowing me to focus on my studies without distraction. Thanks to Charlie and his team for showing up for me so that I was able to show up in my life when it mattered. Their professionalism, honesty, and genuine care made all the difference. The pricing was straightforward and fair, with no surprises, just quality service from highly respectable individuals. Charlie is an Angel!

Herbert Gaidus I rarely leave reviews, and Vaughn doesnt really need another 5 star rating, but Ill give him one anyway. Ive been fixing my own vehicles for over 50 years since I did my first transmission swap at age 17 on a 70 Volkswagen Beetle. Basically, I could never find an honest mechanic who I trusted to do the job as well as I could, and who would charge a fair price for the effort. Finally with Auto Japan, and Oakmont Garage I dont have to pick up a wrench again, and can rest assured that the job will be done correctly. Vaughn is an expert mechanic, who wont try to upsell you on additional maintenance jobs. In fact, quite the opposite, as he has repeatedly suggested postponing some maintenance work until it was actually necessary. I found the pricing reasonable and will continue to have my 4Runner serviced at Auto Japan in the future. Highly recommended!
