“I just wanted to say thank you because this entire shop is so helpful and friendly and kind. When I first moved to San Diego a few years ago, it was difficult finding a reliable auto shop I could trust. When you’re a woman coming into any mechanic shop, I know I’m not alone when I say it can feel a little intimidating or uncomfortable, but everyone at Pacific Star Auto makes you feel so welcome and comfortable from the start - and really does leave you feeling that your car is in good and trustworthy hands. They are honest, bilingual workers with the best pricing around. The front desk manager Isaac gives amazing communication and explains everything that your car might need or what needs to get done in easy-to-understand language (not any confusing car jargon). The mechanic Raul even spoke to my out-of-state parents on the phone, explained what was going on with my car for them in Spanish, and even reassured them that everything would be good-to-go too. They always honor any warranties they give on services as well. They really do value the wellbeing of their customers and of course the vehicles they drive - and I’m grateful to have finally found a shop I can always count on here in SD.”

“I bought a Buick Enclave from CarMax and an extended warranty. CarMax recommended Pacific Star Auto, and said that they would be able to provide any needed auto services just like any CarMax location. My service rep at Pacific Star Auto was Issac, who was very friendly, respectful, and professional. He recommended an oil change, tire rotation, and replacement of air filters as recommended by the manufacturer at various milestones. Issac said that it would take only about two hours, and sure enough I got a text while I was eating at a nearby restaurant that my car was ready for pick up. I was very happy with the courtesy and professionalism of all of the staff at Pacific Star Auto.”

“I’ve been taking my cars here since I was 16 years old. I’m 29 now. Always excellent service, communication and quality of work. I live in Ocean Beach now and make the drive down to Chula Vista because I know I can trust these guys to give me a solid deal and great work. It’s always excellent customer service. Today I picked up my girlfriend’s Jeep that had an a/c problem and now the a/c is like new. Couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you again Pacific Star Auto for treating me like family.”
