Fast friendly service at a good price. I showed up near closing and they still checked my car. Answered all the questions I had. I would recommend this place.

I called and asked a smog question, then asked for their hours on Saturday. Showed up at 9am and they said they were closed. The website and my call confirmed they were open. They said they don’t “do smog checks on Saturdays”. Why tell me your hours then? Also very hard to get in and out since the smog checks weren’t open. Very frustrating. Went somewhere else.

Took my truck for a Brake and lamp inspection and these cool guys wouldn’t do it because my truck was lowered and had hid headlights. Will never think about using them again. Take it to Steve’s Auto Service Smog and inspection place in front of the DMV in Oxnard for this service, they did it with no problems at all...

My last experience wasn't great. Called over the phone to get pricing on a smog for an older vehicle. The day that I was able to take the car in, I called to verify and was told a different price which I said was different than what I was told before. The guy then switched up and said I was right. Got there and waited in the lobby in clear view of personnel. It was 10 mins before someone came over and once again they changed the price on me. I was able to get it done cheaper somewhere else. Money wasn't the issue really but lack of customer service as well as being given the run around is what I didn't like.

DMV sent renewal and it said we needed to go to a STAR station, so we chose Precision Automotive, our first time going there, and we found a coupon online. Everything went well, no complaints, and very satisfied with their customer service, and the price was very good. We asked about smogging our RV, they said they could do it in the morning. We came back the next morning and they smogged our motorhome, it went just as well as our PT cruiser had the day before. The price was very inexpensive for an RV. Everything went very well. We are super pleased with their customer service and prices. Will definitely return for smogs, and will even give them a try for car service when it arises. We recommend Precision Automotive.

NEW!! Precision Auto has saved the day again! Roberto gets the credit. My check engine light came on in my 2002 Yukon. Roberto advised me about how we could approach the problem and ended up saving me a great deal of money. It could have been any number of things that were wrong. Another shop might have gone ahead with expensive repairs, but Roberto started with the least expensive option and we went from there. So far the light is still off and my car is running great. Roberto has taken care of my son's 1998 Lexus as well. We are so happy with his work. I wish everyone one could be as kind, professional, thoughtful and helpful as Roberto! We would have many fewer problems. Roberto took care of my smog cert. He replaced my rear tail lights and did everything very quickly. I was in and out of there in no time. The cost was very reasonable. He knew what he was doing, was kind and thoughtful. I will be going back to Precision Automotive the next time I have any car problems. I was very impressed.

I've taken both my cars to Precision automotive for smog checks, as they do the special "star" checks here. The service is quick and friendly, and not as expensive as other places I've been nearby in Camarillo. The waiting area is a bit dark and dingy though, that's my only critique; some lamps, comfy chairs and maybe music could help it be a space customers would be more comfortable hanging out in. For now though, being next door to A-Burger is a decent option too.

Went for a smog and a brake & lamp inspection… it ONLY required new rear brakes to pass the inspections. After 5 hours of waiting, car was “ALL READY!” Paid, headed over to the DMV and they noticed that the smog was missing. Called them, they said “we didn’t do it” 🤦🏼‍♂️ but why? Don’t know! The shop told me “READY”! Well, my guess is that if they would’ve told me that the car was not going to pass the smog then I would’ve taken it home without getting the brake&light inspection and the brake job ($300). It’s always “mi raza”! I just lost a whole day!!!!

I highly recommend Precision Automotive based on several visits for my 3 cars. The staff is friendly and helpful; also without any pressure for unneeded services that I've experienced at other shops. They get really busy so it's best to drop your car off 2/18/22 - they installed a new radiator in one of my cars. Reasonable price with great communication on updates.

I don't know why? Maybe because I am Asian? They checked my vehicle within 10 minutes I arrived but had me sit there for about an hour for no reason. My car was sitting in the parking lot after the mechanic checked for inspection. No one tells me whats going on. All other customers are come and gone, and yet they told me to sit and wait because it's not done. My car is still sitting in the parking lot, not doing anything. After about an hour, I was about to leave the car and come back and tells me he's going to finish the paper work. They were not nice at all. I was totally ignored.

Connected with Carlos (manager) regarding my brakes. He was honest and professional. He gave me piece of mind that my brakes were in good standing and wouldn't need to change them. Although I didn't need my brakes changed this time, I will definitely come back and have them serviced here. Great experience!

My mother went in here to get the smog check done for her car. The mechanic shop we usually go to was busy, so they sent us over to this shop. They said that the brake lights weren't working and that it would be $50 to fix the problem. My dad and my uncle (a mechanic who works for another shop) had replaced the LED brake lights for the vehicle a few weeks prior. They were brand new. My mom just wanted the car to pass the smog check, so she went ahead and paid that extra $50. A month later, those same LED lights that they had "replaced" stopped working. When my dad went to put in new LED lights, he found that the mechanic had put in old LED lights. He took the brand new LED lights that the car already had and replaced them with old LED lights. Ridiculous, freaking ridiculous. Will never step a foot in this place and will also be telling friends and family about this.

They wanted to charge me 90 due to having a car from 1994, if you have an old model i recommend going to 214 E 5th St, Oxnard, CA 93030

I want to express my sincere gratitude to Enrique and the team at Precision Automotive. I brought my in-laws' car in for some unusual issues, which stemmed from unique circumstances the car had been through. It was not an easy problem to diagnose, but Enrique dedicated significant effort and successfully identified the root cause. Despite how busy they were, the car was ready in just a couple of days. Thank you again for your excellent service. I'm so glad Precision Automotive was recommended to me. Sincerely, Teresa

They have great prices compared with other shops doing the same work. Safety inspections are less than half the price of other shops. They also are not afraid of using 2nd hand parts, if available. If you don't have a fat wallet, this might be the place for you.
