A-1 Auto Repair, Sacramento CA

Ron is awesome. Good prices, good service, and always honest work. He never tries to up-sell anything, even gave me my money back one time after a quick inspection revealed he wouldn't be able to fix the problem on my wife's car.

They were honest and up front with our car repair. They did quality work at a fair price. When they learned we were from out of town, they worked hard to get our car to us ASAP.

We've been going to A-1 since we moved to the area, great service, always telling us right up front what is needed and what is not.
Good price for oil changes

Friendly and honest, he had to refer me for a tricky intermittent stalling issue but every experience with this business has been a pleasant one. I come here for regular maintenance now

Customer service is always great, prices are fair and repairs are quick. I take my car here when the tasks are beyond my expertise.

Our local Shell station service guy wanted $580 to do a fix it job. A-1 said he could do it $350 and ended up charging $280. I have had nothing but excellent service at very reasonable prices. This is our go to place for all service work!

I have been going there for a few years now. And always get great and fast service. Ron is an awesome guy and a great mechanic.

I started off going to this place simply because of their price for their oil change and quickly realized the owner and mechanic was a little bit different. I work down the street He was very accommodating as far as me dropping off my vehicle and picking it up but he made me aware of minor issues that most places would charge you for which in the end ended up being preventive maintenance for a later engraver issue. Not to mention upon recommendations to other people they've experienced the same genuine automotive care. So whether it be an oil change basic maintenance or some unfortunate automotive issues stop by and treat your car right

I admit I was pretty wary of a mechanic that has full 5 stars on yelp with over 120 reviews. However, I found people that rated other mechanics poorly had stated A-1 Auto Repair was the place to go.

So I went!

My car was often not starting. I was lucky to get it to A-1 Auto Repair and they gave me the diagnostic fee of $95. Unfortunately, they could not replicate the issue and offered to keep it overnight. I should have suspected something like this would happen since my car started without issue.

They tried all the different things I thought caused the car to not start (being in the sun, running for a long time, A/C, etc.) but my of course my car started perfectly each time! There were clues that led them to believe it was likely to be my distributor - but they were honest and stated that I should not pay to replace it since they could not give a definitive diagnosis. In fact, because they could not replicate the issue they gave me a discount! They were honest with me so I was willing to pay in full, but they told me that if the issue becomes consistent I could bring it back and pay the rest then.

In short, A-1 Auto Repair is 100% deserving of their 5 star rating.

Price are great. They value our time and give the best services that can they provide. We will back. Thank you.
