Joe was very welcoming, even though I was a little late for my appointment. I explained the issue my wife’s van was having. He eventually called me to tell me the diagnosis and how much it would cost. I thought it would be a whole lot more. They then came across more issues and once again he called to give me an update and new estimate. This being our main family vehicle, it needed to be fixed. When we picked up our car my wife couldn’t be happier. She said it drove like a new car. Thank you guys for the quick work and for a decently priced fix. I would definitely bring anyone of my vehicles back! This was my first time there and he came highly recommended. I can see why now. And why an appointment is needed.

Went in for a bag vibration during braking. Joe and his team diagnosed and fixed the issue in 2 hours for about 400 less than I was expecting to pay. The car now brakes smooth as butter. I've been looking for a shop that I can call home for all my repairs. Think I found it. Joe is amazing Super friendly and explained everything as they went and having been a mechanic in a previous life but can't do my own work due to medical issues, what he explained was spot on. Nice to get good trust worthy people these days.

Bill Clark automobile is excellent. I’ve had multiple issues with multiple vehicles lately and I asked my neighbor to recommend an honest mechanic. Unbelievable service and honesty and integrity. I would highly recommend them. Joe, Alex and the whole crew is awesome. And you get to meet Roxanne the dog who is a sweetie

I was recommended to Joe at Bill Clark Automotive and had my best experience ever in dealing with a mechanic! Joe was honest, helpful, and very fair. He even helped fix part of my car that another mechanic had messed up on, for no charge. I feel good about trusting him with my car and would recommend him to anyone looking for a professional and honest person to service their vehicle. :)

I love Joe, and the entire crew! My entire family and I have been using them for years and I can honestly say they are all the best. Joe is always incredibly honest about what is needed, and also honest about things that are not needed (including time frame and necessity). I never feel like I'm being "taken for a ride" as I have often have felt with other mechanic shops. Joe is very knowledgeable and the entire staff is incredibly friendly and hardworking. I can't say enough positive things about this business. I've been going to them for so long and they have always made me feel so at home and incredibly well cared for. I will always highly recommend Bill Clark automotive.

I brought my 2015 Ford Explorer in for a variety of services I knew it needed… An appointment was necessary and after a few hours they contacted me with a thorough list of what was needed and in order of priority (including cost for each) they were so professional and nice! We had them do it all, they said they’d get right on it but needed until the next morning and sure enough they called a little before 11am that my car was ready! Wow! Most experiences I’ve had in the past, the mechanics ALWAYS have my car way longer than expected so this was fantastic! The cost was fair and was actually less than the original quote. I really appreciate the service I received from start to finish. Their communication and knowledge truly reflects an high level of professionalism and integrity and I highly recommend bringing your car here!

My brakes in the front and back of my car were really bad. Called everywhere for quotes and Bill Clark’s had the best pricing! They were able to take my car in that same morning. Everyone working there is very friendly and honest about what needs to be done! Told them I replaced my intake hose myself and asked if they could see if I did it correctly. They checked it out for me and fixed the small mistakes I made. Brought my car back a week later to get my AC fixed, since it’s been broken for years. Joe helped me and explained everything that they were going to do. They honestly have the best pricing in town! They tell you a price and they stick to it! No surprise up-charges at checkout like some shops do. Definitely will be going back. If your looking for good prices, friendly staff, and people that really care about you and your car without looking to over charge you go to Bill Clark’s!

Been going to this shop for 20 plus years. Joe always treats us right. If it ain't broke it he doesn't recommend it be fixed. Great guy, great service.

Perfect Repair and Great Customer Service This was my second time having my car serviced at Bill Clarks Automotive. They diagnosed the problem with my car quickly, and called me with the information about what was needed. They completed the repair quickly, and honored the warranty for the part they replaced. Joe is wonderful to work with. He explains things clearly and is open and honest about options. I am so grateful to have found this mechanic in Ventura!
