I had the pleasure of having my car diagnosed by the Owner Eduardo. When I say pleasure, I mean it. He is a magician in figuring out what needs to be done with the least amount of money to be spent on fixing the problem. I would highly recommend you to have your car taken to Fremont Foreign Auto Repair shop for a refreshingly honest bunch of people to work on your vehicle.

This is a fantastic shop. When all of the other shops in the Bay Area would not even look at my car, Eduardo called me personally and ensured that he could get my car up and running again and he did just that. Long story short, one of my cars was down for almost 6 months with a serious misfire on 3 cylinders. I took my vehicle to his shop and within 1 month, the car was up and running again perfectly and it only took that long due to having to order parts from my tuner. Eduardo never made excuses, always called me back promptly, never overcharged me and always had a smile on his face every time I showed up. These characteristics show a lot about his shop and the expert mechanics that work for him (Thank you Merwin for your help as well as his wonderful customer service ladies, they are professional and excellent at their job). I will be making a YouTube video advertising this shop to people in the Bay Area; but I had to leave a detailed review here showcasing my appreciation for the excellent work that Eduardo and his team did on my Genesis 5.0. Thank you is not enough. I won't go anywhere else except here from now on if I have issues and you shouldn't either.

I, an old single woman, went in because I thought I needed new brakes. They took a look at it and showed me that I didn’t. They then explained why it felt that way. When I asked them how much? They responded, “nothing”. It gives me peace of mind knowing how honest they are!

this shop is honest, responsible, and does quality repairs, even though I live an hour away from their shop, I would go to them for repairs. Another shop quoted me lots of extra unnecessary repairs for my car (Mercedes S600), Fremont Foreign Auto gets straight to the point, and fixes the issues, their service and communication is really good, they would test the car to make sure everything is ok before handing it back to me, their price is reasonable, and no upsell for extra repairs. 100% recommend this shop

If you're looking for an honest, top-tier repair facility, Fremont Foreign Auto is the place to go. Eduardo and his team handle every repair with care and precision. Each time I walk into their shop, I'm greeted with warm smiles, and it's clear that they genuinely value their customers. The attention to detail speaks volumes, and I've sent all my family and friends their way, knowing they'll be in good hands. Trustworthy, reliable, and professional—that's what you can expect.

This is a long overdue review. As a British motoring enthusiast, I came to Fremont Foreign after British European closed. I had to find a shop that knew the Jaguars and Land Rovers the way Nick and Carol did, and thank goodness they do. Not many may know, but Eduardo was the one that was helping them out when Nick was out for health reasons, super commendable. He and his team are true gearheads that not only have the passion, but a thorough understanding of what makes our cars tick, literally. They're not just a service manual workshop, they are car doctors. There's not many shops left like this, which is why you'll also see many classic sports cars around like Alfas and Porsches. I believe they are also one of the only shops in the greater vicinity that work on Deloreans. On top of all this, the office staff are very courteous and attentive. I also appreciate how Eduardo is honest and always trying to look out for the customer, looking for any ways to make it the most economical.

Eduardo and his team are the most hard working and honest team I’ve met, and they go above and beyond for a meticulous job! They completed several projects on my new Land Rover Defender and Rivian R1S. I will entrust them with all our vehicles, and would highly recommend them for any vehicle service!

This place is a ripoff the employee Luis lied to me about my issue. As others said in reviews they are more expensive than the dealer. They broke my car and gerryrigged it back together. Absolutely do not trust this shop. All they care about is getting into your back pocket and do not have the capabilities to diagnose and fix a car the right way. They took me for over 3500 dollars and my car is still not running properly

The best shop in the bay area. If you have a classic foreign car you cherish, you have found your mechanic. Edwardo, the shop owner, was prompt, knowledgeable, proactive, thorough, and friendly. Although the shop was extremely busy, Edwardo responded to my sense of urgency and was able to see me the same day. Unrelated to the reason for coming in, Edwardo noticed and tightened a loose valve cover bolt. Once completed, he pressure cleaned the top half of the engine. The extra care was refreshing. The quality, timing, and cost exceeded my expectations. I’m a fan and loyal customer. Michael

My RX 350 is here now for a stalling problem. Eduardo has been exceptional with working to find my issue. You can't go wrong bringing your car here. I know my car issue is difficult because it has no codes/check engine light and Foreign Auto Repair shop has been wonderful in not giving up and being determined to resolve my stalling. Thank you so so much in advance Eduardo and team.

I have been a customer of this place for more than twenty plus years. Eduardo is a great guy, every tow truck company in Fremont knows him well. I have one Japanese and two German vehicles serviced here for the past twenty plus years. Everyone worked very hard trying to get to the right issue to fix and change only the necessary parts. They have also changed their parts warranty to 24 months over the past few years. Jose took good car of my cars from a simple lightbulb change to windshield wipers. Everyone at this place Eduardo included deserves a kudo. They all worked very hard to focus on taking good car if customers. If there is a six star, I will give them a six star service for taking great care of customers.

Thank you, Eduardo! I can honestly say you’re one of the kindest people I’ve met. I brought my car in today for a quick diagnostic—even though you were busy, you still made time to help me out. You walked me through everything clearly, used a stethoscope to rule out a lifter issue, and explained how a real lifter problem would sound. It’s rare these days to find a shop that’s honest and genuinely cares. A lot of places just try to make a sale, but here, I felt I could really trust the service. I’ll definitely be coming back for any future car needs. Seriously, explains why this place is busy and full of cars. Thanks again, sir! 2021 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack

I had a fantastic experience getting my Ferrari F355 repaired at Fremont Foreign Auto Repair, all thanks to Eduardo. His knowledge of these cars is truly impressive, and he handled the repair work with incredible attention to detail. What really stood out was his thoughtful approach. Not only did he fix the issue perfectly, but he also found a way to do it that was cost-effective, which I greatly appreciate. It's clear that he's not just doing a job; he has a genuine passion for his work. Eduardo is also a very honest person, which made the whole process a pleasure!

Highly recommend this repair shop especially if you have an AMG, they're so professional and efficient on fixing 3 of the fuel injectors of my AMG GTR, took me 3k less compared to the dealer (Jesus). And helped me fixed broken wires bitten by rats without charging. They also recommended some nice items for my car to maintain a better engine health.

If you own a Volkswagen—especially an air-cooled vintage Beetle—this is the place for service. My 1966 VW Bug is a daily driver for my kid, so when it developed front-end issues, I needed a shop I could trust. I initially thought it needed a new ball joint, and very few shops can handle that kind of work anymore. In fact, Fremont Foreign Auto was recommended by a wheel-and-brake shop in San Leandro that wouldn’t touch an old Bug. Eduardo, the owner, quickly diagnosed the problem and came back with good news: the ball joints were fine. What the car actually needed were new tie rods and a steering damper, along with a rear main seal to address an oil leak. Eduardo is a true car guy—he owns a ’60s Bug himself—and he had (or sourced) all the parts needed for a fast, fairly priced, high-quality repair. What really impressed me was the pride he takes in his work. When I picked up the car, he had also replaced several cheap hoses and swapped out old screws for new ones—tasks that weren’t even on the quote. Knowing my kid drives this car every day, I genuinely feel better having it in safer condition… or at least as safe as a ’60s Bug can be. I’ve found my forever shop for my Bug. Highly recommend Eduardo and Fremont Foreign Auto.
