This is a hard-to-find, honest and competent auto repair shop in the Bay area. The service quality is way far better than auto dealership. I've never felt more at ease entrusting my four cars to Root autoworks for maintenance and diagnostics. He flawlessly repaired my Range Rover, BMW and Lexus on time at a very reasonable price, He is trustable and a professional mechanic. You won't regret getting your car serviced here.

It’s been a long time since I’ve had a shop I could actually trust. Jack and Jin did the works on my car and made sure everything that needed attention was handled. From the transmission fluid change to checking the battery, installing a new deck, cleaning the engine bay, and even reminding me to keep an eye on my starter, they thought of things I didn’t even think to ask about. On top of that, they told me what actually mattered to fix and what I could wait on. The prices were fair and they were completely upfront and honest about everything. The pictures don’t do it justice. My car might be old, but it feels brand new now. I feel lucky to have found this shop.

I had my Dinan exhaust installed on my M240i at Root Auto Works, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. Before coming here, I called multiple Dinan authorized dealers, but their prices were outrageous, and their customer service was far from friendly. Then, I reached out to Root Autoworks, and from the moment I spoke with Jin, I knew this was the right place. He was incredibly kind, offered a reasonable price, and most importantly, his passion for cars was evident. During the installation, Jin kept me informed every step of the way and completed the job professionally. He even reminded me to come back in a week for a follow-up check, which showed his commitment to quality work. Throughout the entire process, I felt I could fully trust him. This was a truly exceptional experience, and I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for quality work and outstanding customer service!

Honest folks like Jin at Root Autoworks need to be celebrated and rewarded. Excellent quick service, quotes me price X on phone, then when I show up says I am a repeat customer so it is actually lower, and charges me _lower_. Who in this world does that anymore?

Root Autoworks is fairly new shoo in the area. I have been looking for a “good reliable and trustworthy shop” i can rely on. The shop provided timely yet very professional repair service and I am super satisfied. The shop was located at very convenient location and everyone was super nice!! I had my project car that I am working on and had oil pan gasket issue. The shop repaired the issue in short amount of time with a fair cost of repair. It is definitely the shop I will continuously bring my vehicles in whenever I need the service! 👍👍

I was in San Jose when my car’s control arm broke. I had to drive to LA for my flight, and these guys fixed everything really quickly. Best experience — big thanks to Jin and the other guy, you’re awesome!

They said if it's too good to be true, it probably is. Not Jinhee. He is the real deal. Honest, fair, and goes beyond my expectations. I first met Jinhee when he gave a free diagnostic test to my car. Everyone else i called are charging $$. He had me from then on. Today, i got a flat tire. He sent Jack (friendly, empathetic, and really nice) to my office to check if it can be repaired. Then sent towing to my office. The whole nine yards! Texted me it is ready with the new tire. Only charged me the tire, no labor, no towing. What an awesome dude! A trustworthy car repair shop is essential. I highly recommend Root Autoworks. Thank you Jinhee and Jack for another wonderful experience (from a very sad tire situation).

Great shop and awesome staff! Jin was very honest, knowledgeable and super friendly! Him and his crew of Jack and Jesus fixed an issue with my car that the dealership I originally was taking it to wanted to charge me an arm and a leg for! ($6000). The price in the end was very fair ($600) and this will be my go to place for all of my future car needs!

Jin (the owner) is probably the best mechanic I've had the opportunity to interact with - very knowledgeable AND super friendly. He has been working on my 2007 BMW 335i for the past 2 years (since he was working at a different shop), and every time he exceeded my expectations. He's fixed everything from my headlights, spark plugs, engine misfires, and even simple things like oil changes. I am very particular about repairs on my car due to it being an old German car, and Jin is one of the few people I trust to touch it. I'm so glad he has his own shop now so that he can truly show his talent. Do yourself a favor and check his shop out - you will not be disappointed!

Small auto repair shop, and the owner is young but knows a lot about the cars. I had a starting problem on my 2007 mercedes s550, so I had to tow it to the shop, and he found out it was fuel pump relay right away. The price was very reasonable too. I recommend this place a lot.

I am very glad I was introduced to Root Autoworks ! I have been to many different shady body shops in the past, but Root Autoworks is different ! After Jin inspected my vehicle, he told me what was wrong with the car and made recommendations. After the service, I noticed that the problem that I had was gone ! I have to mention, his prices are extremely competitive as well ! I would highly recommend anyone that is looking for an honest mechanic and price friendly auto shop !

I cannot recommend this body shop enough. Finding a trustworthy mechanic can be a daunting task, but the owner here is truly a gem. He is incredibly meticulous with his work and maintains the highest level of integrity. I was impressed by the expeditious service; my car was ready exactly when promised, which is a rarity these days. The pricing is very reasonable and fair, with no hidden fees or unnecessary upsells. It is rare to find such a combination of honesty, quality, and efficiency in the Bay Area. If you want your car handled with care by a professional who actually cares, this is the place to go!
