Michael & Company Auto Body And Auto Repair Shop in San Jose, Ca. in
South San Jose Hills (CA)

They repaired my car perfectly fine - but they tried to charge me over $1k for random diagnostic recommendations. I went and got a second opinion and was charged $65. Great service but get a second opinion.

Car breaks no longer squeal. No longer has motor oil issues. Hooray! Price was reasonable

Great team. Clear communication. Fast service for a tire. Convenient after hours drop off (one spot). AAA certified shop.

Very welcoming. Great communication throughout the repair process. Fair pricing.

Michael’s does a great job. I’ve been a customer many years now and have been pleased with their work.

Went in for recommended mileage checks, service was great. Easy to drop off/pick up, good prices. Thank you 🙏

Excellent job! Service was great as well! Thank you for making this easy.

I had a fantastic experience getting my car serviced here. From the moment I called to schedule, the team was professional and clear about what to expect. When I arrived for my appointment the staff welcomed me and took time to explain everything they would do, which made me feel confident leaving my vehicle in their hands. The repairs were completed on time and the results were excellent. I also appreciated how clean and organized the shop felt and how courteous everyone was throughout the process. They even offered a shuttle to save me time while my car was being worked on. The pricing felt fair for the quality of work and the overall service made this one of the best auto repair experiences I have had in San Jose.

I needed to get my brakes and transmission fluid replaced. I originally took my car to a different auto shop to get a quote which roughly came out to $900 for both services. My family has been using Michaels for auto body work but decided to get a quote for mechanical services. The quote came in around $200 less than the original mechanic. Needless to say I took my car to Michael’s. Bill was extremely helpful in providing quotes over the phone. Greatly appreciate the transparent pricing, fast service, and friendly staff. Michaels will be my go to mechanic for all our cars.

We have brought vehicles for body work to Michael’s & Co over the last 20 years. The staff is always friendly and the body work is top notch! Thanks Michael & Co team!

Couldn't recommend the team more! Honest and great work. Kay is a pleasure to deal with!! A+

Very friendly shop. Met an over 40 years loyal customer there that attested for the good service and value the place offers. I will be one of their regulars. Special mention to Kay Luong!

We are really pleased with the excellent service, thorough inspection and reasonable rates Michael &Company offers. We have had our cars serviced here for 16 years and we highly recommend them for car maintenance and auto body work! They are exceptional.

It pains us to write this, as we’ve been loyal customers for years. However, we need to express our extreme frustration with the recent service experience involving our Subaru. We brought the car in on August 25th based on your recommendation to replace the radiator and thermostat. At the time, there were no urgent issues, but we trusted your judgment as our long-standing service provider. What followed was deeply disappointing. After the repair, the AC stopped working the very next day. You asked us to bring the vehicle back and diagnosed hose leaks. The car remained with you for nearly two weeks. While we appreciated the loaner, it had oil issues, forcing us to change plans for a long weekend until a rental was arranged. When we finally picked up the car on Friday, September 5th, we were told it had been fully tested. Yet the check engine light came on immediately. Though Phil attempted a fix, the light returned as soon as we got home. We messaged your team, but the shop was closed for the weekend, leaving us with no support. Throughout the weekend, the light remained on, engine noise worsened, and we couldn’t safely exceed 60 mph on the freeway. It was incredibly stressful and felt unsafe. We do want to thank Kay for promptly handling the rental car issue. However, the overall experience has been unacceptable and uncalled for. We urge your team to improve your processes, conduct more thorough checks before returning vehicles, and train staff to address issues proactively—not just after customers escalate concerns. Sadly, this experience has cost you a loyal customer. We are extremely disappointed.

My family and I have been coming to Michael & Co for over 15 years, and they’ve truly been our go-to for everything from regular maintenance to major body work. They know my dad well and always ask how he’s doing whenever I stop by—there’s a real sense of community here that you just don’t find everywhere. Over the years, they’ve handled just about everything for us: full body work, bumper replacements and repainting, new tires, annual maintenance, dry belts, thermostat and coolant systems, alignments, brake jobs, oil changes—you name it. Most recently, they replaced and repainted a rear bumper we originally thought could be buffed out, and the results were flawless. What I appreciate most is their balance of quality, reliability, and fairness. Even when bills add up (as they inevitably do with car repairs), they’re very affordable compared to others in the area, and the work is always worth it. The only downside is that they’re not open on weekends, which can make scheduling tricky. But Phil, Lyn, and the rest of the team always go above and beyond to accommodate and ensure your car gets the care it needs. If you’re looking for a shop that’s trustworthy, thorough, and has long-term customer relationships in mind, Michael & Co is the one.

I can’t say enough good things about this place! Work is done so well. Always on time Love that they keep you posted on what’s going on. This is definitely my go to place. In addition the service is 5 star. Lynn and Stephanie always have smiles and make the whole process so much easier! Thank you 😊

We went from feeling completely frightened and frazzled to feeling utterly safe and relieved in just 24 hours. That was due to this AAA approved top notch shop. This team was there for us from the minute we walked in at 7:30 on a Monday morning to that same afternoon at 3:30. We were out of town visiting family when our vehicle had an issue that needed immediate attention. We did not have to wait, we did not need to rent a car. That is truly an amazing experience. If you are thinking about the best shop for your vehicle, this is it!! No question about it. Unbelievable ethic, communication, conversation. The entire office are like angels, each doing their own thing for the customer. Not to mention, best coffee service area!!! Thank you so much Bill and the entire crew at Michael and Co!! We are blessed to have found your gem of a business.

First time in the shop. Took our car in to replace a broken fog light. Geddy, the Service advisor gave us an initial estimate of an hour labor and sure enough an hour later popped into the waiting room to tell us the fog light was fixed. They were straight forward in their communication of cost and the repair was done right! They have earned our consideration for any future repairs of our cars!

This place is 5 stars. I needed to get my car repaired for an insurance claim and they were communicative, honest, and took great care of my car. They even cleaned off sap that I couldn’t remove from the car for years (lol). I would highly recommend this shop to anyone! Lynn is THE BEST. Don’t go anywhere else!

I had a great all around experience having my car repaired here! The staff were very thorough, friendly, patient, and knowledgeable, while leaving out the upselling of unnecessary things or preconceived assumptions I lack knowledge of my own car - which I find is common for many women to find in mechanics. They prioritized the rather laborious maintenance work I needed and were able to complete it in one day. I felt the price was reasonable and they were very transparent and communicative about the process, offered the free shuttle to and from the shop which was clean and efficient, and I appreciated the payment portal and ability to communicate with the technician via text message as this was very convenient given my daily schedule and I am typically not able to take several calls in the work day.

Michael and Co. is excellent! I’ve been going here for 10+ years. I’d recommend Michael and Co to anyone looking to repair or upgrade their car. Pros: - professional - accurate quote estimate before starting work - friendly staff - accountable team - large facility with lots of car lifts - they do it all! - fast turnaround - trusted technicians working on your car Cons: - labor can be pricey but this is Cali and all auto shops prices have gone up over the years

I’ve been going there for quite some time now couple years now each time that I’ve gone there they’ve always had high quality of good. Customer service made me feel like family up until today on this day.11/05/24. I gotta give a shout out to a special hard worker who works there his name is K if you guys ever need any help or anything. I highly recommend him because he has gone far and beyond and over and out for his job today as for me, a customer, Crystal Castro.much appreciated him from our family 👍🏻💯👊🏻🙏🏻

James and Juan Diaz are really good at their job. The customer service was amazing and friendly, and understood and made sure to write down all of my concerns including out of office texts to change the plan and the original estimate. The alignment, transmission service, and multi point check was really worth the money and made my car so much better already! Don’t look any longer, if you need a mechanic, this is the place to go! Some things that you can do yourself are a little over priced but as long as you know some youtube and car knowledge you’ll still get a crazy bang for your buck. They’re highly experienced and never added extra to the estimated price. I really appreciate it! Thank you!

I was recommended to this business by my auto shop to get a steam clean for my engine. I have to say, if I wasn't a loyal customer to my shop, I would want to have this be my go-to mechanic shop. This business seems to run like a well-oiled machine. (Pun intended) Setting up my appointment was very easy, and they were patient with answering my questions. The office is clean and welcoming, and they even have coffee, water, or tea for free for you for while you wait. Although I only got a steam engine cleaning, I can tell by the number of cars they have on the lot that are waiting to be worked on that they are probably a reputable business. I would recommend them to others.

Hello, I had my car checked here about a month ago, when the light went on for the brake light. I noticed the covering that is a snap on-off cover to the wiring for the tail lights is gone. Any chance its floating around there? Lost and found box? Haha. I’ve never tampered with it myself, and i searched through the trunk maybe it fell off to no avail. Pls and thx! It doesn’t Look good and buying another one at the dealer will prob run me $200. Just a huge pain in the behind. Plus i never knew how to check my tail lights on my own anyways i didn’t know there was anything there. Update: I am back and forth to San Jose visiting. Unfortunately I did have my brake lights checked there a month ago and can provide receipt proof of diagnostic charge. The door is missing I reached out to Michael’s on Lincoln via the email contact provided but did not hear back. The cover is missing. Long shot asked if it was there since It was last there being checked. No one else works on my car.

Recently purchased a restomod (restored and modified) 1930 Chevrolet Universal Club Sedan. It has a 1984 engine under the hood - and because of this none of my usual mechanics were willing to touch it. Michael & Company was willing to give it a go, and were able to identify and remedy all of my unique car's urgent needs so I can drive my car with confidence. Will use these fine folks for my car's needs going forward.

Updated review: I contacted my insurance provider to express my concerns about my vehicles repairs and my insurance approved me to return to get the repair properly done. Upon my returning to this shop the Asian man with long hair (unfortunately I didn't get his name) told me that he does not like my review and I should remove it. I felt intimidated and threatened by the way he addressed me. I was surprised that he would confront me in such a way. I have a right as a consumer of a service or product to review however I feel appropriate. Since I am now not only dissatisfied but offended and felt threatened I will report them to consumer affairs and the BBB (Better Bussiness Bureau) just to create awareness. I do not want anyone to experience the terrible service that I did. Initial review: I was sent to this repair shop by Statefarm (my vehicle's insurance provider) to get repairs on my vehicle. This company took over a month to get my vehicle repaired and even when the "repairs" were done I noticed that my windshield had little dings on it. All else aside they seemed irritated each and every time I had called to follow up on the status of the repair. This is my only vehicle and the insurance only covers rental vehicles for so long. Everything that was supposed to be repaired according to the insurance company's quote didn't seemed to be repaired in a legitimate manner. I do not reccomend coming to this particular shop to get you vehicle repaired because of my dissatisfied visit.
