What clients say about Mendocino Coast European in Fort Bragg (CA)
-
Trevor is meticulous and methodical in providing preventative care. I own an older Volvo wagon and wanted to keep it for my limited driving. He evaluated it, provided service and explained that at 100,000 miles I needed to get a new timing belt if I wished to keep it. In replacing the belt, he caught some problems up the line. His work was careful and, in my opinion, not excessively expensive. The engine purrs now. Later...down the road....I still recommend Mendocino Coast European highly. My car is still running very well! Trevor knows his stuff.

Nice enough guy. The shop did a head gasket on a vehicle I purchased and it’s gone bad in 40,000 miles. But now he says he won’t work on the vehicle anymore because it’s “too old” I don’t see the head resurfacing In any of the documents.. why was that not done? So now I’m forced to pay 2k for it to be redone…

Trevor does a careful and thoughtful job working on your engine/car. He keeps it running in top performance. He's worth every penny. You're lucky to get an appointment with him.

If you can ever get this guy on the phone (which I doubt) he will act like he is too busy to ever help you. Also his quotes were outrageous. Took my car over the hill to Ukiah and saved money and time. Yeah I doubt you remember any of the would be customers you dont make the time of day for. Good to know you have enough spare time to write snooty holier than thou responses to your negative reviews though.

Recently went to Mendocino for a short weekend trip and had some unwelcome car problems. Thought I would be stranded and started panicking. Luckily, I found MCE and Trevor spent less than 30mins to figure out the minor problem and fixed it. It wasn't anything major but Trevor went out of his way and his busy day to help out a person in need. Thanks again.

I cannot thank Trevor enough for his help in a tight situation. I had just purchased an older BMW 2002 model in Oregon and while stopping in Fort Bragg, it would not start. I was told by the AAA mechanic and other "experts" that I'd need a new alternator or regulator at the minimum. I was fortunate enough to be only a block from MCE and Trevor was kind enough to quickly diagnose my problem first thing in the morning even though he was backed up 6 weeks. It took him only a few minutes to figure out that the issue was not a bad alternator or regulator, but simply the alternator bulb in the dash that needed replacing! He charged my battery to full and topped off my brake fluid. I was able to drive to Sacramento without issue. It is very rare to find an honest and genuinely well-meaning person these days, especially in the auto repair industry. Trevor truly cared about my predicament and helped me as a traveller in need. Not only that, but he saved me money by only working on what was needed. He is one of the few mechanics who has the deep knowledge to diagnose nuanced issues. You are in good hands with Trevor and MCE! Thanks again!

I stopped in Mendocino while on a road trip to Arcata, and my BMW X1 started acting weird. They diagnosed it as a faulty O2 sensor, but I was unable to find a rental car in town, so I couldn't leave it with them. They advised me to double back to Santa Rosa to leave it with the local BMW dealer (BMW dealer confirmed that it was indeed the O2 sensor and they repaired the car) and then rent in Santa Rosa to complete my trip. Didn't charge me for the diagnostics. Wow. Super cool. Thank you!!

I’ve been dealing with them for over 10 years and Trevor has always been honest and professional. He knows what he’s doing and the place is spotless.

Top notch shop, a pleasure to do business with them. They took care of my broken Mercedes starter right away even though they were already fully booked. It seemed to me that the owner had a sense of duty as the authority on European cars to help out anyone in trouble. Very clean shop, great communication, reasonably priced, competent.

The owner is very honest and helpful, told me that I didn't need a alternator for my 2016 Outback Subaru. Auto parts store told me I did need one but I'd have to get from a dealer, car too new, Subaru hadn't released the part. A Subaru dealer 75 miles away gave me the number for Mendocino Coast European auto repair, to see if he could install the alternator. That is how I found them. Saved me $500, my car has been running fine with out a new alternator for over a month.😃

I was traveling and I had a water pump leak on my Audi A4. Trevor was great. He was fully booked having just come back from his own vacation and got me in and back on the road after calling some of his regular customers and rearranging the schedule with their approval. He was very fair, communicated well and did great workmanship. I would travel to use him in the future, not 540 miles though.

Excellent auto maintenance and repair shop. I use this shop for scheduled maintenance on my 2006 Honda Ridgeline. They are always busy as they have great mechanics and the latest technology, including diagnosis and repair capabilities. Personable and very detailed in their activities. The owner explains in detail what they did and what they recommend. I even take my Scion FRS, supercharged, to them for non-warranty work. A great find for automobile enthusiasts!

Amazing shop! I was on a road trip when my car started to act up. They couldn't book me in because they were already booked up for the week. But still took the time to lift my car up, diagnos the problem so I could get another shop the heads up on what part to order. How many shops would do that for you?

Must be good as they are very busy every time I park in the shade across the street while awaiting my wife from her doctors appointment.
