It’s been years since I’ve been here, but was in town for an event and needed a brake job. Bruce has retired, but Todd is the man now and I enjoyed doing business with him. Honest, excellent customer service. Prices are good and quality of work is excellent. I may save future maintenance for my next trip to town. I highly recommend these guys. Keep up the good work.

To my understanding. Joe, the boss, knows what he's doing and shows consistentancy in his diligence to run a shop accordingly and honestly. Jenny answering the phones is really respectful and surprised me by her kindness. Todd, the manager always has time to talk and will go above and beyond to make sure things are right. Technicians there are very helpful and will always do the job right no matter how much effort it takes. I'm very pleased by the teamwork and honesty this place shows on a daily basis.

I've been using the Auto shop for a number of years now and have absolutely no complaints. Well maybe one, they never have coffee and doughnuts waiting for me when I get there. All kidding aside this is the best auto repair facility I've ever used. Bruce and Larry are very professional and easy to talk to, they care about every vehicle that leaves their shop. They totally understand customer satisfaction and the value that a returning customer brings. I've never been unhappy with any of their work and I won't take my vehicles anywhere else. A.A.

We tried this place for the 1st time, since they had amazing reviews. We can confirm that their service is outstanding! We took our 2007 car in for a repair. Bruce gave us an idea of what the issue may be but did not guarantee anything until he got a closers look at our car. We were able to schedule an appt for the following week. Today we dropped off our car off first thing in the morning (8am). Bruce kept us up to date along the way as we ran our errands. He also informed us of the concern he had regarding our tires. We returned to the shop to find out that our tires were in really bad condition, bad enough that we could have had a blow out. Bruce advised us not to drive back home in Patterson, and replace them today. The service took until 3pm but it was worth the wait. We will definitely come back for any further issues! We got our tires replaced and aligned. Our car is now riding perfect our issues are now gone. Thanks again Bruce & staff, we appreciate your outstanding service!

Honest people! I took my Tesla in for a noise on the breaks. Turns out there was a rock stuck. They fixed the issue. Every one that helped us out from start to finished was great! Amazing customer service. definitely recommend them. 😁

Took my wife's car to them for a check engine light. I always expect to be over charged. But all I needed was something simple and inexpensive. They do good work and they're honest.

TOP NOTCH. The only words I can use to describe the folks at The Auto Shop. A slightly unique situation, I had to find them strictly on line to send our rental customer to. Not only where they willing to help, they got us in and repaired POST HASTE and got our customer back on the road in no time. I went strictly off of reviews and can say I am HAPPY to add another 5 stars!!

George and team are honest. Their estimates and actual costs of repair are spot on. Will continue to take my vehicles to them and not the local Honda dealer.

Good service. Third time I take my truck to them. I trust them my truck and car, both Toyota. Good service. They are courteous and seem proficient. Unlike my local brand distributor, they are reliable and take responsibility of the job they do. I have no complains of the work the have done in my vehicles.

Horrible place had them do work on my car just for me to turn around and take it to another mechanic because they didn’t do their job right

I was having multiple issues with my car, they resolved everything quickly and provided me with great service. They even repaired a major issue at one third the estimate given by another shop. I am now happily driving with no check engine lights on my dash. Car is running great and I know I'll never use another repair shop, The Auto Shop is my forever mechanic! They took the time to explain everything without mansplaining to me.

Everyone was so friendly and the shop was well kept. They have a little waiting area w/daily newspapers from WSJ, the times, phone chargers and complimentary coffee/water or juice. They fixed the AC in my hyundai in under 2 hrs and did so at an extremely reasonable price—I highly recommend these guys!

This was the best car repair experience ever. I brought my car in for the air conditioning and it was done within 2 hours! Very courteous, communicative, and fair with the price. This has always been an excellent repair shop. I have not been here since the ownership change, and I was happy to see that the service is as good as ever.

Todd told me he could work on my car. Said the diagnostic fee would apply to repairs, he did diagnostic, but told me he couldn't do the work I'm out the fee after telling him what the codes were. He clearly could have told me he didn't perform what the codes were telling, would have saved me unnecessary fees paid

I have a 2000 and a 97 Mustang that I have had to have lots of repairs done on because the prior owners stripped them for parts or outright installed the wrong parts because they didn’t know what they were doing. I knew they were project cars when I bought them, but they were both in running condition and I didn’t want to see them end up in a junkyard. When I bought them I lived in the Bay Area and the mechanics there were atrocious! Half the time they couldn’t even tell me what the problem was. Then 8 years ago I moved to Modesto and after trying a few different shops here, I found The Auto Shop and I don’t take my cars anywhere else unless it’s something they don’t work on like convertible tops. Todd is amazing and incredibly knowledgeable and honest. He won’t try to charge you for repairs you don’t need and will tell you exactly what the problem is and give you the price up front. If he finds something unexpected, he lets you know so you can decide if you want him to take care of it or not. If it’s a simple fix, lets you know that too.He always charges a fair price and does fantastic work. My Mustangs now run better than they ever have by a mile! I guarantee you that if you bring your car to them, you’ll never want or need to go anywhere else for your repairs. If I could give a hundred stars rating, I would! - Jim N - Modesto

This was the first time I have been to The Auto Shop and I can honestly say that the owner and his team are absolutely wonderful. I can confidently say that this is the only place I will be going from now on for my vehicle. They were very professional with excellent customer service. I will be recommending this place to everyone I know. The cost was very reasonable and my car was done in a very timely manner.
