What clients say about Fullerton Auto Repair Clinic & Body Shop in Fullerton (CA)
I’ve been bringing my car here for the past 5 years and they always do a fantastic job! Quality work at reasonable prices. They came highly recommended by a family friend and I haven’t been disappointed since. I’m glad I found a Mechanic and shop that is reliable and trustworthy! Thank you Fullerton Auto Repair clinic!
Great shop trusted and best quality work in town only place I take my vehicles and refer to family and friends family business owned don’t waste your time and money anywhere else!
Jim and his team are wonderful to work with! I was very impressed with their service, their kindness and their pricing. They were very fair and did not do unnecessary work or overcharge me. I now have a trusted mechanic for all future work as well! Cannot recommend them enough!
Recently got into my first ever car accident. I requested a quote on Yelp and Jim had asked me to come to the shop to get an estimated quote. He gave me a comprehensive breakdown of everything he and his team needed to do to fix the car. Almost all of the grille, emblem, hood latch, radiator were bent/broken so they needed replacement. Myrna the admin assistant was very accommodating to let me know when the car will be ready. It took two weeks to order parts and do the labor. Jim is an honest mechanic. After two weeks, my car is brand new! I recommend this shop for anyone who needs to do collision repairs.
I have a 2007 Toyota Corolla and recently had a check engine light come on. I needed to pass a smog check, but most of the shops I visited told me it was a transmission issue and offered very expensive solutions. Jim, however, took the time to explain the steps we could take to address the problem. We decided to do a transmission fluid and filter service, and it completely resolved the issue. He even test-drove the car afterward and recommended a smog check location for me. I’m extremely happy with the service. Thank you, Jim!
Can't say enough about this place. I took a chance as it was on my way home. Even though they were pretty busy, a service technician, Jim, was able to assess my situation and give me a ballpark estimate. He was knowledgeable and even warned me about some things I should watch out for with aftermarket parts which I appreciated. They were able to fit me in that day. After the job was finished, it was even better than I expected and the price was exactly what was quoted. Myrna in administration was friendly and a pleasure to work with. I will definitely be going there for any future auto needs!
I have an older model Volvo and often times it's hard to find shops that can or will work on it. This place could and they did. The staff in the office was great and all the techs in the shop were cool as well. They explained everything clearly to me and the price was great. They completed the work in just one day and communicated with me throughout the day as well. The work they did was great as well as the way in which they provided the service. Extremely friendly and straight forward with everything. I definitely recommend them to anyone needing any repairs or body work. I feel blessed I was able to find them. Thank you to the entire staff.
I had major bodywork done on my SUV recently and the outcome was pretty amazing thanks to Jim and his incredible team at the shop, they run very professional, honest and ethical business, I had taken this car to three different shops but they refused to work on it due to the severity of the damage and hard to find replacement for the damaged parts for this 23 years old SUV.
Don't waste your time looking for a place to get work done on your car whether it's mechanical or Bodywork, just take it straight to Jimmy at Fullerton Auto Repair.
These guys and gals are amazing they did all they promised and then some. I went in for a body repair, and my car looks great. Jim breaks down everything, so it's easier to understand what's going on he answered all questions or concerns I had. They took a little longer than planned, but other than that, they were so easy to work with. Definitely recommend this place.
This place was okay, I am not one to post reviews unless I feel very strongly about them. But anyway, I took my car in on a Monday and gave the lady at the front desk my information, keys, etc. After that, she said she would make sure to call to give me updates on my car. A couple hours later, she calls me to let me know what's going on and what's been worked on. A few more hours pass and no update, so I call and then she tells me there is still no update. I think fine, i'm probably being impatient & they must be busy, so maybe they'll call me tomorrow.
Tuesday rolls around, and since I know they open at 8, I wait to see if I'll get a call. Nothing. So then I call, and I let her know my name & that I still have not received any information about my car. She had a pretty annoyed/passive-aggressive tone and just repeated to me that she would call to update me if there WAS an update. That left me feeling pretty uncomfortable, I have a right to know what's going on especially if I'm paying for these services. So I let it go, and then Wednesday finally comes.
I become frustrated and decide to just go see what's going on. So i get there and the mechanic tells me it had been finished. Once I go into the office to sign for the work that was done, the receptionist tells me that she had been calling me to let me know that my car was done and that I was supposed to pick it up the end of the day on Tuesday; however I had no calls or voicemails. So I told her I had not gotten either things. I just felt very weird with this whole interaction and I think it was just pretty irresponsible to not let someone know their car was ready. Obviously people need their cars for a number of reasons and updates are appreciated. I understand everyone is so busy, I just did not appreciate the tone when I called to check about my car and then the sudden switch up when I went to pay in person. It just felt like so much wasted time and of course if I had been called about my car being ready I would have gone ASAP.
It was just an odd interaction and maybe a bad day, but I just felt the need to express this because even if a place has fair prices, customer service is also important and just overall, a welcoming atmosphere from the employees.
All in all, they did fix my car's issue and at a decent price.
After multiple mechanics, wasted money, 3 failed smogs, I finally passed my smog test after a year thanks to this team. Fullerton Auto Repair found the solution to my 2010 honda accord's catalytic converter and o2 sensor issues. Not only did it take Jim a few hours, but it was very affordable as well! I can't thank them enough as this ongoing problem was taking a mental toll on me. Highly recommend them for being honest, good at what they do, very reasonable, and easy to work with!
If it were possible to give this place 10 stars, I would!! I truly cannot recommend Fullerton Auto Repair Clinic more highly.
I brought my VW Tiguan in for an issue with the module that controls the airbags as well as a broken A/C system. I had gotten a couple other quotes from repair shops in Los Angeles for the airbag problem, both of which were $4K+. Those technicians had told me they would need to completely tear apart the drivers seat to get access to the module and replace several costly parts on it. Fortunately, a dear friend of mine recommended Fullerton Auto Repair Clinic after having great experiences with their team and I'm SO GLAD I listened to her! The service I received was best in class and I couldn't be happier with my experience there.
Bill (one of the owners) ran a full spectrum of diagnostic tests on my vehicle and determined that the problem with the airbags was simply due to some faulty fuses. What other places had said would cost thousands of dollars to fix ending up costing me less than $50!! The A/C repair price was also much more competitive than other quotes I had been given.
Bill was so kind and took the time to explain in depth how everything worked. Myrna in the front office kept me updated on timing via text message, and gave my dog treats along with a lot of belly rubs! :)
It's SO clear that this family-run company takes immense pride in their work, and I will never take my car anywhere else. Thank you so much again for such a wonderful customer experience!
Dishonest!!!
The technicians are great…they know their stuff…but the front office lady is dishonest …I changed my oil a few times and this time all of a sudden they charged me 2.5 times as much as before …I understand inflation and 20% increase is ok with me but 2.5 times?…she pretended they “forgot” to charge me for draining the oil…really???
Don’t go here if you want honest prices
I have a 1999 van and as you can imagine, it’s needed some work done and this place has been both quick and very reasonable with prices. Not to mention everyone I’ve interacted with here has been an absolute pleasure. Having a good mechanic really makes life so much better, and I couldn’t be more grateful to these guys!!
I've been going to this amazing family ran business for about 8 years now and they always always always take great care of me and my cars. Reasonable prices, great service and honest work. I'll never go anywhere else!!
I'm a single mom, brand new to the area and I came to this shop to see why my check engine light was on. I had my 2 year old with me and couldn't stay to do a full assessment so Bill went out of his way to scan the code on my Jeep and saw that it was something as simple as needing a new gas cap because mine had gotten lost. He then told me where the nearest Jeep dealership was and even offered to order it for me and I could pick it up the next day. All this and no charge! Great customer service and integrity. Thank you.
Friendly and knowledgeable owner and staff. Gave various options and price points to fix different issues with my vehicle. More transparency and lower costs compared to other shops. This was the 2nd time taking a car to Jim at Fullerton Auto Repair. Highly recommended.
Came here because of Yelp ratings!
Really worth the five stars! I would give one more star if I could.
They are honest and quick. The price is very fair.
They changed my oil and took care of my break issues!
I highly recommend this shop.
Simply the best!
The reviews speak of courtesy and professionalism. Personally my experience was excellent from start to finish.
I have gone back again for a separate issue with my car and they delivered. Five stars is an understatement. So add another for personal touch from Mirna and Jim.
I did take my Hyundai Elantra to remove lots of dents. They are very efficient and professional. They delivered my vehicle within 2 days and it looked very perfect like a brand new car. They are fair on the pricing. I strongly recommend this facility for any auto body work.
Mechanics that are fair on their prices, friendly and efficient.... rare find. I trust them w/o reservations. This is the place to go to for car body work or any general repairs. Great experiences for me so far without any bad "aftertaste". Material savings over ending up at the dealership and probably better served.
First time at Fullerton Auto Clinic and it was a great experience. The staff is super friendly and the technicians are the most knowledgeable I've spoken with. If you want honest and thorough work done on your vehicle this is the place to go.
I accidentally scraped my new 2015 Subaru Forester on the passenger side with a cement pole commonly found at gas stations. I am told pearl blue is extremely hard to match because it changes colors. They did an excellent job!! Nice, friendly and very professional. My car looked brand new just like it did at the dealership. I HIGHLY recommend them!
First off Myrna in the office is just a sweetheart and kept me updated on the progress of my truck that had been at 2 other shops to figure out what was causing an engine code that I've been trying to fix so I could pass smog. They found and fixed the problem very quickly for a very reasonable price. The shop will now have mine and my family's business for all of our automotive needs. Definitely recommend.
What a Great family to work with. Everyone is very knowledgeable with the Imports and Domestic. I have a 2000 Toyota Tundra Pre Runner, every day driver; and they're the Only Group that has worked on my truck in the past several years. I recommend anyone that's near the area to stop by and have them diagnose any issues you might be having instead of getting reamed at the dealers...!!!
I honestly don't understand how this company gets good reviews! Are they thorough, sure, but when it takes them double the amount of time to diagnose a problem that a dealership could, its pretty frustrating. I have taken my car to them 2xs and while yes they did do the work, both times it took 2 days (and they did not even finish....we told them to stop bc they said it would take a few more days to know what was going on)!!!! Maybe everyone else doesn't have anything better to do, but I had to get a rental car and most recently I had to just stay at home. I have 4 kids, this is the only car that can transport them all. I went to them for the price, but I will never take it back. HUGE inconvenience, and while I don't work, I do have young kids that need to go places and my husband works full time. On top of that, they tried to blame me and my husband for why they took so long. Front office was rude when we started asking questions as to why it was taking so long. I guess if the price is right people will do anything (like not have a car for days) to get what they needed. I would never recommend them to anyone.
This place is the best! Jim looked at my car a week ago from a minor finder binder and charge only $155 for parts and labor. He told me when I'm ready to fix it, call him so he can get the small part. Give him a day and it will be done. I took it in at 9:30 am, it was done by noon. It tooked great, band new again.
This place is honest and honor what they say they will do. The first place I took my car to for a estimate wanted $1180 for a new finder and some new sides instead of fixing it. They wanted my insurance to pay for it, but my deduction is $500.
A great honest family run auto repair shop!!!! That's good on their prices. Stand by their repairs. Also always willing to help you out. They have worked on our 2007 Jeep Liberty 4x4 Limited. They have done work from brakes, sensors to front drive shaft. Highly-rated and highly-qualified auto repair shop!!!!
