Oceanside Auto Repair

I have never been more pleased with auto service. This is the best mechanic shop I've been to. I travel 30 miles from San Diego to get my car serviced here. Id recommend to any friend family member or stranger. If you seek honest, quality auto care with personable customer service, come here. They quote fairly and go above and beyond expectations. Truly the best!

I found this Auto Service on Yelp. It was my first time at this service shop. My vehicle needed 100K service and inspection. Service Manager Rex went over my requested service with me and let me know what to expect in terms of price and time. My vehicle was inspected and I was told right away of the service needed. I authorized the suggested services. In short time, my vehicle was ready to go home. They completed the service with a csr wash and vacuuming of the interior. Over all, it was great service.

These guys at North Country are excellent - Rex and Mike are honest and trustworthy ...instead of always suggesting the most expensive alternative, they figured out how to rebuild my turbo instead of buying a new one...if you have car problems then go to the guys !!!

Did a good job on my car for a good price i recommended it to everyone mike is the man.Even got a car wash for free.

Very reliable, a little pricey, but really great guys.

My daughter's 1996 Maxima was having apparent transmission problems. I spoke to Ben, the owner of AAMCO who offered a free inspection. The owner son, Ben, gave me a ride home. Unable to diagnose the problem Steve recommended a complete diagnostic test at a minimum charge that would be applied to any repairs. AAMCO invested between two to three hours' labor inspecting the transmission and running additional diagnostics. As it turned out, Steve reported the transmission was in good shape, diagnosing instead a possible mass airflow sensor problem. But, not having the right test equipment to confirm that was the case, Steve recommended other shops having the necessary equipment to make further diagnostic tests. Even though AAMCO was entitled, by contract, to compensation, they said "since we were unable to find or fix the problem we wave all fees."I recommend AAMCO in Oceanside without reservation.

I had my check engine light come on after having some issues with an oil leak a few months back. I was worried I'd have to pay hundreds of dollars AGAIN like I did for the initial repairs, so I decided to take my car here. The staff at North County Auto Service is super friendly and helpful! You know they've got some great customer service when you already feel like a regular after your first visit. They told me my car was actually in very good condition and that the check engine light was just a small technical thing. I've never had a auto service business tell me that there really wasn't anything wrong with my car. They could've spun something else on me and charge me so much more, but they didn't.Also, I took in my car on tuesday midday and told them I wouldn't be able to pick it up til thursday. Since I gave that time frame, I was sure they wouldn't look at it til wednesday. Rex called me first thing in the morning on wednesday that my car was fully checked and ready to be picked up. On top of that, Rex leaves really understandable notes on the invoice detailing everything that was done to the car. This place surprised me in so many ways. If you're like me and you've never felt like you could trust a mechanic, take your car here so they can change your mind about the industry

My experiences with North County Auto Service started in 1996 when I was an insurance auto appraiser. When I worked with a shop it was based on businesses who have outstanding customer service, integrity, and the ability to trust that the shop can get the job done right without a customer having problems or a "come-back". In 2003, I bought a Honda Van which had to go to dealer for warranty service. I got used to my service advisor so just stayed with them up until recently.My Honda is 14 years old, has a 150k, and still a great vehicle. But in a dealer's situation, they don't fix, they only replace. I had no symptoms or problems with it. I didn't screw the gas cap on like you are supposed to and it will cause the engine light to turn on. When I took it to the dealer to turn the light off, they told me that I needed a transmission. I took it to a reliable, local shop for thorough check out. There was nothing wrong with my transmission. I then realized I needed to change my service shops.I saw on Yelp that North County is still the great business I remembered and had them do a thorough safety check before a long trip that I will be taking soon. What I appreciate most in any repair facility is when they truly listen to you, repeat it back, and give good suggestions for what you need. Rex did all that. I have had experiences where a vehicle will just sit on a lot and you have to call them for status. Not so, with Rex and North County Auto Service. They kept me apprised the whole time my vehicle was there. It was finished when they promised it would be. When I picked up my vehicle, it had been cleaned inside and out. It felt like a new vehicle driving it and I wouldn't want to replace it because it is a great vehicle. But, it will only be a great vehicle if you have the right people maintaining it for you. I trust that North County Auto Service will be the only shop I go to from now on. It is such a relief to know you are in good hands and people who care and have consistently been this way as long as I have known them.

Mike has put together a team of experts who are willing to go the extra mile to make sure a vehicle is repaired to satisfaction. They are all more than willing to go out of their way to make sure a job it done right. Mike is very friendly and very customer service oriented. He has helped me track down some of the most complex problems with my vehicle. His can-do and never give up attitude are all very important characteristics to me, and his team expresses that and more everyday. He will work with you to make your experience comfortable, reasonable, and importantly, complete. Thank you Mike, Rex, Fernando and the rest of the NC Auto team!

They are by far, the best mechanic service I have ever experienced. Mike is incredibly professional and will always be 100% truthful to you. I have gone years without trusting mechanics, but North County Auto Services have really changed my mind. I always feel like they are being honest with me when they are working on my car. I always feel good after leaving there. They certainly have me as a lifelong customer.You will love them!
