James and his team are fantastic! Very professional in every regard. I loved their automated estimate process, and the way they classify potential repairs as (and this is my description, not theirs!) "you've got to get this done, it's a safety issue", "you should get this done while your car is in the shop, but it's not a safety issue right now", or "it's a good idea to get this done while your car is in the shop, but it can wait". And each potential repair had a photo and a clear description. EASILY the best system I've seen in 45 years of getting cars serviced! I absolutely recommend Oakmont!

James and team were great. I would highly recommend them. They identified and resolved all my issues for a good price. He was very accommodating, drove me home when I dropped off my car, and when the car was ready to be picked up I was super busy with kids and dinner so he offered to let me pay online and he would drop car off at my home. Great guy.

I’ve used James and Oakmont Auto Repair for multiple cars and issues including check engine lights ( not even Jaguar could puzzle out that one) as well as oil and lube, inspections for potential future problems , and other services. James is a consummate professional - honest, tells you straight, and personable. His staff are just as dependable and I know when I leave my car , I’m getting value and my car will be ready when promised. I’m so relieved to have found this business.

I would highly recommend Oakmont Auto Care! The owner and team there are very professional and knowledgable. They do great and thorough work on my vehicles. I took my truck in Thursday and they were able to inspect and replace my rear tires, front brakes and perform an oil service on my truck; returning it to me the same day. Oakmont Auto Care was also voted the Best Auto Repair Shop in Walnut Creek 3 years in a row. 2019, 2020, & 2021. 5/5 stars!

James came out from under a car that he was working on to greet my son and I with a smile and asked “How can I help you today?” He is honest and takes pride in his work. One can tell that James is the owner of Oakmont Auto because of how he leads his mechanics with an open heart. Also of how the garage looks clean and welcoming. 😎…🚗

James and Oakmont are absolutely the best 🌟 Highly recommend. James was both kind and professional, communicating with me what was happening consistently. He has wonderful attention to detail and makes sure everything in your car is running smoothly. They offer a service where they can drop your car off to you and they even returned it vacuumed and washed! I go here for all my car needs.

I recently had a great experience with this auto service center. The quality of service they provide is Very good. It’s advisable to make an appointment in advance, as they tend to be quite busy maybe due to their excellent reputation. This popularity is well-deserved, as they genuinely excel in what they do. One aspect that stood out to me is their transparency throughout the process. You can trust that they’re upfront about the work they perform, which adds to the overall positive impression. I highly recommend Oakmont for anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy automotive care. They are a CARFAX center.

Nice, honest and knowledgeable owner and technicians!!! James, the owner explained to me about the problem in a easy way and charged me with a very reasonable price, compared to other places. They even came to my place to pick me up for going back to the shop to get my car when it was done. That was very touching. In this world, too many greedy people who like to take advantage of others. But this shop really gives me warm feeling and I can build trust again. I definitely will use this shop for anything related to the car and highly recommend it to people. Thank you, James and happy holidays to you, your team and family!

I would rate them 6 stars if I could! I was notified that my brake lights were out, and immediately gave them a call. Being new to the area and seeing their reviews, I was hopeful they would deliver quality service. My call was answered, and they said I could come by immediately. I brought my car by, they checked out the issue, and it ended up being a bigger issue than expected. James immediately described the issue as well as their process to fix it, and outlined everything including costs for me and needing to order the part to fix things. They allowed me to even leave my car there with them overnight so they could do the repairs the next morning, and personally gave me a ride home and picked me up when the repairs were finished. You can't find service like this just anywhere, and I have nothing but respect for James and his team during this process. I will always be coming to them when I am able to for any future repairs. Thank you Oakmont! Edit for a second visit on 5/31/2023: I happened to have the day off and needed an oil change for my Nissan. I could easily have gone to any other location, but I wanted to get that proper level of care and professionalism that Oakmont's team provides. I had some phone issues when trying to call in, so instead I decided to stop by, and James was able to squeeze me in that very day despite their busy schedule! They allowed me to leave my car for a couple of hours, and got the job done so quickly! With Oakmont, you can have absolute trust that they will treat you and your vehicle with kindness, and the best care in the area. Thank you yet again, Oakmont!

I brought my Honda Civic to James to get new spark plugs put in and new transmission fluid. It was truly a pleasure working with James, and he is very knowledgeable, honest and really understands everything about cars. I would recommend bringing your car to Oakmont Auto Care as your car will be in very good hands there and James is very friendly and helpful and a joy to work with. I was able to get my car in the next day after calling him, and they were all so on it and had the car all ready within a few hours. Thank you James, keep up the good work you guys!

This was our first visit, and the owner is friendly, thorough, and uses very clear communication. He's very knowledgeable and was able to diagnose our issue quickly. While it isn't the cheapest place to get your vehicle fixed, you get what you pay for here: top notch work. We'll be returning for future work.

Highly satisfied with my visit to Oakmont Auto Care. Communication with James, the owner, was excellent. They specifically diagnosed a rattle noise in one visit that took the dealer 3 days to generically diagnose. The noise required a very expensive part so now I feel much better about the repair after the careful and specific diagnosis provided by Oakmont Auto Care.

James and his team are consummate professionals. Very thorough and will answer absolutely any questions you ask, even about something other than your service, such as other cars you might own. An excellent and positive experience.

I have been coming to Oakmont for 2 years and the service is always outstanding. I have a 2018 Honda Civic Sedan. I was a long time fan of dealership service departments. But when I discovered Oakmont auto care, I found that they gave the same level of high quality technical service as the dealership, but the biggest difference was the extra care that they took to educate me on my car. James also makes sure that everything is done properly and advises me on alternatives and future care. Wow. You can't get this kind of service just anywhere.

Our car needed a jump after the battery died and we wanted to make sure that the battery remains in good shape. One of our friends recommended that we go to Oakmont. Dropped in around 2 pm and even though they were busy, Dennis took time aside to help us right away. He was very thorough and made sure to triple check that our battery was OK. In the end, Dennis confirmed that our battery is still good and helps us figure out what may have caused it to die (the dash cam). Thank you, Dennis! Highly recommend Oakmont Auto Care!

He’s always so time efficient, he has great energy, and always goes above and beyond for his customers. I come here often to get my car serviced, oil change, tire pressure, etc. He makes sure if you’re paying for a service he provides valuable experience as well! Let me now forget the excellent staff with their music and quick turnaround 10/10

James and his crew are phenomenal! I’ve gotten my TPMS repaired by them a year ago and just recently needed to take in my 2006 Prius for maintenance/repairs after a bunch of lights came up on my dashboard. James is super knowledgeable and answered all of my questions, truly a master at his craft. Not only were the repairs made, but the crew cleaned the inside of my car as well (thank you)! The cost of the services were quite steep, but it does make sense with the quality of service you’re receiving. I was also given a 36 month/36k mile warranty for the services! Definitely go see James and his crew at Oakmont Auto Care! Best auto shop in Walnut Creek, hands down!
