Probably one of the best and cheapest mechanics I've ever been to. This was my first time taking my car to a mechanic shop (I'm 18) and I was expecting to pay about between 4-5 grand. Only ended up paying for 2k and the guy I think he's the owner, washed my car for me as well free of charge. I didn't even ask for it to be washed. I will always trust this company 💯 (the front bumper scratch has nothing to do with anything, it was only the front left side wheel that got messed up) There's before and after pictures (took about a week to fix)

I find the negative reviews very strange. In my personal opinion about Mr. Ortega's service, these reviews are false. I've been taking my Chevy Avalanche to this place for six years, and Mr. Ortega has never scammed us; he's always left the car in perfect condition and always lets my husband test drive it before picking out from his shop. He's also very kind and professional. I don't know why people say these negative things about him; it's neither fair nor true. In my case, up until now, he's been a very respectable and professional person. He doesn't overcharge and is very honest. He's also a very good mechanic. I've recommended him to many friends, and now they're all his clients. I'm very demanding and difficult with mechanics, that's why I think, in this case, the negative things come from negative people who just want to ruin the image of a business on a whim..

He stole $3,200... I told him I had some Acceleration problems and I thought it was the Transmission. I took it 2 different Transmission Specialists before Ortega. Both Transmission Specials said they couldn’t find the problem, they both Declined to do a $2,000 Transmission Rebuild. I next took it to Julio Ortega where he said I need a “Tune Up” and Charged $3,200. I told him my only Concern was for the Problem to be completely fixed. Eventually he Called me to pick up the Car. When I got there I asked to Test Drive to make sure the Problem was fixed. He Refused to let me Test Drive my own Car. He said he has to be Paid $3,200 before he can Drive the Car. That’s the First time I’ve ever heard of anything like that. He stated that the Car is Currently in his Possession, that he’s Responsible and could be held Liable. So he didn’t let me Test Drive the Car. I ended up Paying him $3,200 before Driving the Car. And when I finally went to Drive Back, what do you know? The Car works exactly like how when I brought it in to him. No Difference at all. $3,200 Spent and nothing to Show for it. He didn’t fix a Single thing. I had 2 Specialists Decline $2,000 Service only for Ortega to Charge $3,200 and not fix anything. He’s scammer. Even if he can’t find the Problem he’ll make one up. DO NOT TRUST “Julio Ortega”

This guy is not professional at all and He is very aggressive for money. He was fixing my car A.C and he told me come back tomorrow after I drop off the car and he kept the car for 5 days and I had to get uber to and from work and He wouldn t do nothing about that and he had me change several parts one after another and at the end , the Ac was not fixed right and works on and off. I strongly do not recommend this mechanic. Dishonest, Incompetent and greedy.

Don’t go to this body shop!!!! Attention!!! This guy, Emilio Ortega, charged me $150 for a suppose diagnostic and never told me the real issue with my car. He said i have to change 8 hoses 😳😳😳, 4 from left and 4 from right and he pretendes to charge me $1300, i just had a leak for one of the hoses that was leaving empty the coolant and he wanted to charge me for doing anything. Thats not fair! Please don’t go to this body shop or recomend this mechanic, he will steal your money!!!

Had a great experience using Ortega Auto Tech last week. Truck died in the vicinity and this shop. The owner originally diagnosed my battery and starter both needed to be replaced. When I picked up my vehicle, turned out to only need the starter (and solenoid) and not a battery. I appreciate the honesty (and not charging me for a battery (when he could easily have)) ... This is a great shop. I will use Ortega for my future auto repairs.

About a month ago my car blew out on the highway. I went through Google and called Emilio. He offered to send a tow truck. My fuel line and fuel tank was busted. He repaired it and I have my car back. He is a pleasure to work with. I have a new mechanic now!

This Place Is Such A Scam He Ask For More Money For Every Little Thing For The Car To Still Not Work .Said My AC Blows Hot And Need $250 To Fix Just For The AC To Still Not Work . Said 770 To Fix Radiator For The Car To Shut Off On Me Soon As I Leave His Lot, Then Want Me To Pay Additional 2500 To Fix A Head Gasket ….Spent Thousands Just For The Car To Not Work And Have To Go To Another Mechanic. I DO NOT RECOMMEND

Great Mechanic! He took my 1991 Acura Legend and brought it back to life. Fixed the whole electrical system and now it runs like new. And more importantly at a very reasonable price. I also brought the 2014 Equinox with a fender bender and again very pleased with the work. I recommend this place you will not be disappointed.

Took them 3 weeks to tell me they can’t do anything on my car. All I needed was an ecu and throttle body and I had to call them every step of the way just to find out what was going on. They were generally rude and slow to respond. Do not take your car here if you want fast reliable service unless you have a very expensive problem because that’s what they’re looking for.

Brought in my Genesis coupe that had some overheating issues and I assumed it needed a head gasket job. He had the car about 2 months and told me it was an issue with the computer and it didnt need a head gasket job. Came back for the car, we drove it together and it seemed fine, no overheating...but after I paid him and drove to work car overheated after about 30 mins. I had a feeling he didn't know what he was doing. Long story short, brought the car back, got in an argument with him and just squashed it and walked away...my loss! Beware!! Btw this was about 1 yr ago i just didnt remember to do a review.

Today I took my car to carry out the Air Conditioning repair, the work was impeccable, the service and quality of a high level, between spare parts and labor, indisputably the price for both cheap and with a backed guarantee, I recommend you go to Oterga Auto Tech, it will be attended by its own owner….

Mr. Ortega fixed both my cars a 2013 BMW and 2012 Malibu in about a two week time span at a fair reasonable price. Never going to the dealership again!

Very unprofessional company. Made an appointment for my vehicle to be fixed. Waited over 2 hours and then received a call from the company that they are in front of the business where my car broke down and since the location happens to have a dealer next to it he will not service my car. So I guess my car should have stopped working in front of a restaurant or grocery store or even maybe a auto repair shop for this mobile mechanic to service my car. Do not waste your time with this company.
