Dan and his crew are great! Work is always done on time, estimates are accurate, and prices are way below what the dealership charges. And when pricey repairs are needed, they go way out of their way to find the best deal for you.

I’ve only been a customer for 6 months now, but was sold on day one! Recently, I brought my 2015 Camry XLE Hybrid in because of issues with my passenger side windows: they were slow to go up or, not at all, until after waiting a few minutes. This had been going on while my car was still under warranty, but was told by the service department they couldn’t have their guys take a look until my windows went to complete failure. Several years later I bring my Camry to Chico Car Care. They diagnose and solve the problem within a few hours. Couldn’t be more pleased. **June 23, 2025** Still a happy customer! They are very accommodating and don’t push unnecessary repairs. Can’t imagine taking my 10yr old Camry XLE Hybrid anywhere else. I plan on driving this car until the wheels fall off, only Chico Car Care would never allow that to happen 😂

These guys are awesome! My son is attending CSU Chico and discovered that not only had a squirrel built a nest in his engine compartment, it had chewed through a couple of wiring harnesses! I contacted Chico Car Care because of the great reviews here, and wasn't disappointed. Dan took great care of us and they were able to repair the wiring for less than their estimate! They made it easy to handle the entire process remotely from over 500 miles away using text messages and web-based documents. My son was back on the road in a couple of days, and for less $ than I thought it would be. They even sent a ride-share service to pick him up when the car was done. Excellent service and we will be going back to them again if we need to get the car serviced again. Highly recommend!

I have been using Chico Car Care for the last few years and I am very happy with the service they provide. Dan has always been very helpful in finding the issue with my 2000 Lexus LX 470 (Lexus’s version of the Toyota Land Cruiser). From the first phone call and after some initial research, Dan seems to know what the most likely issue is, and 10/10 he’s been correct. I appreciate his willingness to take the time to troubleshoot possible issue and solutions when I call. His prices/quotes are fair and reasonable and the work they do is high quality. When I first took my car to Dan I had a pretty complicated problem, so I was looking around for a second opinion (I was not familiar with Dan's work yet). I called Chuck Patterson and I asked about pricing for the repair, and I was also wanting to know if it was something they could troubleshoot, if this new guy Dan couldn’t figure it out. The service department guy at Chuck Patterson’s laughed and said, “Dan at Chico Car Care?”. I said, “Yes”. The guy from Patterson’s then said, “ You need to leave your car there. If anyone can figure it out it’s Dan.” The DEALERSHIP told me to leave my car with Dan because he was the most experienced in the area. So ya, my car goes to Dan any time there is an issue. I absolutely love my Lexus and don’t plan on getting rid of it any time soon, if ever. 236,000 miles and still going strong! Thanks Dan & Chico Car Care!

I continue to be so grateful for the team at Chico Car Care. They are always patient when explaining what and why my 1999 Lexus needs attention. I trust this business just as much today as the very first time of service in 2007. I am confident, too, that when referring folks to them they are in good hands!

Absolutely amazing service. Friendly, to the point, no BS. Gave me a list of "things to do right now" for maintenance on my 2013 Prius V and a small "recommended to do soon" list. Did all the important things for a very reasonable price considering all that was done, and all in one afternoon! Exactly what I was hoping for when I brought it into the Toyota dealership, but didn't get. I just moved to town recently and haven't found a mechanic shop I trust yet. I believe I just did! Thank you guys!

Love this repair shop for my Lexus hybrid. Very friendly staff, clean waiting room. The whole environment was comfortable. They fixed a tube for my windshield washer for less than half the price of the Sacramento dealer!

We have been using Chico Car Care for about 8 years. We live in Paradise and are happy to drive down to Chico to have our vehicles serviced at Chico Car Care. We own a 2003 Toyota 4runner and a 2017 Toyota Prius Prime plug in. They are quite good and we rely on them for everything from oil changes to helping with repairing and keeping our 210,000 mile V-8 4Runner running like new! We personally recommend this business.

Went in to get an estimate on brake replacement for both sides. The quoted 1500!!!! I knew a bit about cars and that is COMPLETELY outrageous. I went to a different shop for 700 down the road. On top of the diabolical quote they were incredibly RUDE to me and my mother. I would score negatively if I could

David was very patient with me and explain ed very thoroughly what was going on with my car. He also charged me less than the original estimate for the diagnostic, which was very much appreciated because I didn't actually get the car repaired but at least I know what the problem is. An honest mechanic is a blessing.

We took our truck to fix soft break pedals. It was diagnosed to be a master cylinder and quoted $1600. We proceeded with the repair and the breaks still feels exactly the same.

I wish I could give more stars! Highly recommend. One of the few shops that are experts at Prius’s. Dan has amazing communication skills and is honest, fair and trustworthy. The entire staff is friendly and knowledgeable. We are lucky to have them in our community.

Not only was my car taken care of competently and affordably, so was I: the knowledgeable guy at the counter suggested I kill time at the cafe across the street - it was very good.

Chico Car Care has been my go to Mechanic shop here in Chico for the last 14 years. They have always been trustworthy and reliable and helping diagnose what’s been going on with the vehicles in the past. Most recently, we were looking for a used vehicle for our oldest daughter and we took a prospective care in for a pre purchase inspection. After they told us not to buy the car, if it was for their child they wouldn’t feel safe putting them behind the wheel. We brought in another one and they said needed a few things but they felt good about that purchase for her. I trust them and that means so much! I would highly recommend them to anyone needed a good mechanic.

Chico Car Care was able to take my car same day. I needed a tune up and knew there was something making noise under my hood. I opted for their Road Trip Ready service and their inspection uncovered that it was my water pump making noise. They put in a new water pump and new spark plugs. My Toyota is now running smooth and quiet

Easy to make an appointment. Upon diagnosis of the problem there was a PDF for my review including other problems that could be fixed listed in order of importance. I was able to ask many questions and we came up with a plan to fix the major issues with my 12 year old Highlander. I appreciated their professionalism and will continue to take my vehicles here in the future.
