  • "Was referred to them by my guy (that’s right, I got a car guy) over at Carmel Valley Collision. Nice to know I now have a mechanic as well as an auto body guy. Their quote for my timing belt was 600 less than the dealer wanted. Going to pick the car up today, but from all accounts, I dont think Ill have anything to complain about. Nice to have a good honest mechanic in the area. Update…these guys were great, the car runs great, I’ve got no complaints….and I saved a bunch of money. I will be back….but hopefully not too soon."

  • "Having just moved to the area from England it was with a heavy heart that I left my trusty mechanic behind. A good mechanic is worth their weight in gold and they don’t come much better than these guys. Having bought a used car recently I needed to get a few things fixed before she was good to go and I got numerous quotes from garages for a (relatively) simple job of replacing a valve cover gasket.
    Their quote was within $10 of the best quote I received and after my neigbour recommended them it was a no brainer. Dropped the car off at 9, phone call at 11 saying it was ready for collection. None of the “you need this, that or the other repairing too”. My car will certainly be going back there for it’s services and repairs.
    Dealing with Rick was great and he actually cared about making sure we were happy and the car was fixed properly."

  • "Ray and the guys at Del Mar have been looking after my car for years. I appreciate that they don’t oversell you on repairs. If there is something they find but that you don’t need to fix right away, they’ll tell you that it can wait.
    I’ve always found the service to be great and I’d highly recommend them to any friend."

  • "The staff at Del Mar Car Care have always been helpful. They have provided me with detailed information on problems as well as cost. Being new to the area and concerned about what they were telling me, I would call my brother in Boston who worked on cars and he would confirm what they told me as well as the price, they always seemed to be reasonable. They have never tried to sell me something I didn’t need and they always advised me on what things should get fixed first based on safety. I am always recommending them to my friends and co-workers when they are looking for an honest, reliable auto repair shop."

  • "You never get a second chance to make a great first impression and this place nailed it. From the friendly informative staff, spotless shop and clean waiting area I felt that I was in the right place to have my car serviced. I was told that I had bushings that are wearing a bit prematurely but replacing them could wait. They even took me into the shop when the car was up on the rack to show me the wear they were talking about. It's clear to me that this is a very well run business that doesn't need to push unnecessary services to stay in business."

  • "Shawn and crew did an amazing job helping me dial in my truck when I had an incident involving my hub bearing assembly failing on me. I have an aftermarket suspension setup and I am so glad these guys know what they are talking about when it comes to aftermarket. Most places won't touch it because they dont know anything about it. They helped tighten everything up and got me back on the road asap. Can't say enough good stuff about Shawn and his shop. I will be coming back for any further needs as I know I can trust them."
