Review №1

Amer at Euro Auto Tech was simply - TERRIFIC! I was seeking a used SAAB, and found one near Euro Auto Tech - sight unseen, I sent it to Amer for evaluation. Based on his recommendation and expertise, I bought the vehicle - then proceeded to leave the car with him for extensive repairs. Amer was communicative, very honest and trustworthy. I am 2000 miles from Euro Auto Tech and did this transaction 100% remotely. The car was shipped to me across the country. I brought the SAAB in to a local mechanic specialist to deal with some very minor (cosmetic) issues. I can confirm that not only can I vouch for Amer, but the local mechanic went out of their way to exclaim what a GREAT job they did at Euro Auto Tech. I would highly recommend Amer and his team, I urge you to not think twice - he is the real deal - I only wish I lived closer!!!

This time around, I took my car to Euro Auto Tech & Smog and the difference was night and day. I was in and out in 10 minutes (no appointment, showed up mid-afternoon), with the tire plugged perfectly for just $15. Fast, friendly, fantastic!

Most honest and trustworthy mechanic I have found. The owner is knowlegeable and he did not try and sell me services I did not need. Prices are also reasonable. I highly recommend them and will be recommending friends and family as well. Thanks for the great experience!

I really liked this place. The guy at front desk and who did my smog ( he may have been owner or manager) was very helpful and took about 15min to smog check and also gave me some advice on my new used car which I appreciate.

I normally do not give 5 stars to any store easily. But this one earned it . I had my Toyota Corolla brakes to be changed and these guys did it professionally with a great attitude, And so I started regularly changing my engine oil and coolant at their workshop. these people know what they are doing and are very honest with their customers !

I took my 2012 Volvo XC60 R-design to Swedish Auto Tech for repair on April 29th 2016. I found the car to have low compression on the #2 cylinder and an engine Code for Misfire in the #2 cylinder. My car was at the shop for a few days for them to diagnose the problem. On May 3, the shop let me know that they also diagnosed the car to have low compression on the #2 cylinder. I was given a quote for $4,217 to rebuild the head or $7,500 for an engine replacement. I asked for their professional opinion and was told that rebuilding the head would be the best option, especially because of the price difference. I was OK with either option. At that time I gave a $2,000 deposit to cover the cost of machining the head.The vehicle was there for 3 weeks. I was contacted and informed they were having issues getting the correct parts and it would take a little longer. One week later on May 31, I was contacted and told that my car would be ready for a test drive the following day and be ready around noon. I called on June 1 around noon and inquired about my car. I was told that it had broken down and needed to be towed back. I was also informed that I now owed $4,300. I asked if that included my $2,000 deposit and was told it did not. Total cost came out to $6,300, because of parts that the shop did know they needed and an $890 for machining the head, which was not on the original estimate. The extra charges would have pushed my wife and I to choose the engine replacement, especially because the price difference would have been minimal. Furthermore, when I asked if they had done a compression check before the test drive, they had. It tested at 105 psi instead of 140-150psi, as well as having intermittent misfire codes. So they knowingly took the car on a test drive with compression at 72% of optimal operating pressure and engine error codes. Their reasoning for the test drive, ...sometimes the issues work themselves out on a test drive....At no point was I contacted about the increase in cost, nor was I asked for authorization to continue, which is required per California Law; Division 3, Chapter 20.3, Article 3, Section 9884.9. I then stated that I would not be paying for the repairs because I would have gone with the engine replacement instead of the rebuild had I known about the increase in cost, as well I was not going to pay for double labor on fixing my car because of their misdiagnosis of the issue. The manager tried negotiating by lowering the amount owed where I would not have to pay for parts, only the labor, with a total cost $3,800. However, my car was still not repaired. At this time I requested 2 quotes; 1) cylinder rebuild, 2) engine replacement. I told the manager I was not going to be paying for double labor that didnt fix my vehicle, and requested my $2,000 deposit back or be put towards further repairs, which he did not agree to. The manager stated he would be contacting the Bureau of Automotive Repair for advice. The following day on June 2 I filled a complaint with the Bureau. On June 10th I was informed that I was being charged $45/day for storage, starting from June 3rd, until I paid all outstanding debts on the first quote of $4,217. I was never contacted before that, informing myself that our business relationship had ended and quotes were not going to be provided. On June 16 the caseworker from the Bureau informed me that he had advised the manager that he should refund my deposit and return the car without charge.I picked up my car the following day on June 17 and it was covered in oil from the June 1st test drive. I ended up taking my car to another repair facility and within 4 hours they had discovered that the engine had a rod knock and it was advisable to replace the engine instead of a rebuilding it.This automotive repair shop broke California Law, misdiagnosed the problem, was unwilling to come to an amicable resolution, and expected to be compensated for work that left my vehicle in worse condition then when I dropped it off a month prior.I still have not received my $2k deposit
