“I have an Audi Q5. Usually I have to bring it to a specialist. I thought I might have a transmission problem and wanted to try a local place. This Aamco had some Really Good reviews. I figured they should know transmissions even for a German car. Not only did they do a Fantastic job but it wasn’t the transmission…it was the brakes. Much Cheaper!! Customer service was excellent. Everything they said they would do…they did. A complete diagnosis which was extremely thorough. I had the opportunity to talk to Joe for awhile. He Really knows cars and what he’s talking about. He even looked up reviews on some of the parts we were using to see which method was best. …and most economical. Needless to say I was impressed. I don’t plan on taking my car to La Jolla anymore. I’ll just go here.”

“I have taken two vehicles there for diagnostic and they have solve the problems very quickly with no charge both times Very honest people ! If I would it take it somewere else they would have charge me a lot just for replacing a fuse from the fuel pump.”

“Joe went ABOVE & BEYOND with his service to us. We are so happy with our decision to choose this location. Joe did everything he could to get us back on the road as quick as possible and took extra care of our van/home on wheels while it was in their possession. I can highly recommend AAMCO Chula Vista and would definitely go out of my way to take my vehicles back there should I need them in the future. THANK YOU for everything!!!”

“Our level of service has gone so far above and beyond expectations I could even begin to tell you how lucky we feel to have chosen your location. Joe has been exceptional to work with on an extremely unfortunate situation we have and are continuing to have on our van/home on wheels. Thank you for having such a wonderful, helpful, knowledgeable staff. ”

“My 2013 Chevy truck's transmission broke getting on the freeway. Didn't know who to call about getting it fixed, checked around and talked to Joe Woodard at Aamco. He sounded competent to me, so I decided to go with him. I'm a roofing company, so getting back on the road quickly was very important to me. Joe checked it out, said I needed a complete rebuild. I gave my approval, and had my truck back in 3 days. I had a slight problem with vibration, called Joe about it, brought it in to have it checked. Turned out to be just a slight alignment problem with a clamp, was back on the road in 20 minutes. Truck is working great, no problems at all. In all, the price was fair, with a good warranty, service was excellent, and I am a happy customer and would not hesitate to refer anyone to them.”

“Great service and great staff ”

“Joe is a good man, straight up and honest, his guys are professional. Did me right. Thanks guys. ”

“If you use this service, ask for Joe. My experience with him was quick and painless as he honestly explained the issues I had and the solutions for each. Very friendly and enthusiastic attitude. I'll be coming back here for any other problems my car has.”

“I called to see about getting my transmission looked at and financing. Joe was extremely helpful and gave me all my options. I made an appointment and they even covered my tow down there as long as I had my work done there. It was very easy and fast. Unfortunately for me, my transmission was shot. Joe was very helpful with explaining everything to me and helped me finance a rebuilt transmission, and it was done in 2 days. I’m happy to have my car back and running great.”

“Very professional and friendly. I highly recommend this shop for any transmission work needed for your automobile.”

“I took my 2012 Jeep Cherokee in for a leak in the transfer casing. I had nothing but great service! Haven't seen any leaks since then. Overall I was impressed by how quick AAMCO was able to complete the job after going through two dealerships and another auto shop prior to. Everything was great! ”

“They were very quick in getting the job done. Vehicle is like new.”

“Saved me from spending 1,500 more at the dealership. I first called for advice to get a better understanding about my clutch and manual transmission and if letting the dealership add (needed) services to the truck was a bad idea or not. Not only did they tell me it was a horrible idea, but they can do the vehicle inspection and clutch replacement at a flat rate and now my truck feels brand new again. The owner was very honest and very knowledgeable. Definitely the only place i trust for my truck now.”

“Very courteous and professional. Serviced my car fast and did a great job”

“Joe was extremely helpful, honest and professional. My car needed a tune up and breaks. My car was done in 24 hours while everywhere else gave me the run around and a longer lead time. We will bring our vehicles here from now on and have reccomended to others. Appreciate the honesty and quick service. ”

“Super awesome team. Joe fixed my brake lights and saved me lots of money. Will definitely be returning for any automotive needs.”

“A business that will make you come back. Joe had the great communication kept me updated in the eight hour process. My car is floating again. The mechanics wanted to solve the problem. They are trusted mechanics.”

“They do great work on my car.”

“Joe is an excellent costumer service, great communication and service on time, my car feels like flying ”

“Great work! Happy with service!”

“ Car had a bad clutch that I had been riding for a while. When I took it into the shop, they were able to diagnose it within an hour even though I didn't have an appointment. I had done my research on what the price for replacing a clutch on my age of vehicle should be, and Ron's quoted price actually came in a little under that. They got it done in a few days and it felt as good as new. One forgotten thing is that this shop is incredibly convenient since its very close to a 712 bus stop, and only about 1/3 of a mile from the blue line trolley, so getting to and from the auto shop without a car was a lot easier than I have experienced in the past.”

“Joe and his crew are AWESOME! Never did I feel being taken advantage of. Recently had to replace my radiator replace, Joe was upfront and honest.”

“Usually a DIY person but when I needed A/C work done on my car I went with the pros. These guys definitely got the job done quick fast and easy... Sorry I came in during lunch time :D”

“Super courteous and tracked down a hard to find part. Repaired my 2010 jeep and works like a charm! ”

“Great service nice and quick went in for an A/C recharge. ”

“They have good people who work here who don't try to upsell you anything, I will return if my car needs maintenance”

“Amazing work and super fast.”

“Fixed what I asked for. Definitely recommend going here any service a car needs.”

“Joe and his crew did a good job on my car’s transmission. It took a little longer but they made sure the job was done right. The 18-month warranty was the icing to the cake. Keep it up guys!”

“I own a 2003 Celica GT-S with over 241,000 miles and finally the transmission went out. They arranged a tow truck to pick up I my car, evaluated what was wrong with my transmission and got me back on the road in a week. A very big thanks.”

“I went to get my coolant fixed.The car techs here are legit and know their stuff. They were very friendly and made sure I felt welcome. Definitely coming back! ”

“I keep forgetting to post this review. I've never actually left a review for a car care place before, but this place is fantastic. Wonderful, experienced guys. I've always had issues owning a hybrid and finding a mechanic that can do what I need so it was such a breeze to bring my prius over and have everything checked out and repaired all within 2 hours of me dropping it off. Will go to again”

“Highly recommend AAMCO for any auto repairs!! Requested quotes for rear brake pads and rotor replacement for a Dodge Durango and choose AAMCO because they offered the best quote and where extremely accommodating with scheduling.. once the service was complete they even beat the quoted price!!. Will definitely be coming back in the future. ”

“Outstanding service! They were very professional!”

“I went to AAMCO for a transmission oil change and Joe was the contact person. He is a down to earth person. The work was done when when I returned to the shop. I had my license plate bulbs that needed to be put on. They installed them at no additional charge. Thank You.”

“AAMCO installed a clutch assembly, I'm very satisfied with the work that was performed on my car!”

“Joe's the man. Brought my car in for loud screeching noise when AC is turned on, got it fixed the same day. Make sure you schedule an appointment Thanks Joe!! ”

“Joe is an excellent guy all around, knows his stuff , excellent communicator, and straight shooter. He was also really great at entertaining my son who just turned 11 months today. This audi is my first foreign car and I'm looking to keep it forever. You guys will be my go to far past the foreseeable future. Oil change was quick as was the full vehicle diagnostic. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.”

“I wanted to write AAMCO a review because these days, I don't have a lot of trust in this industry unfortunately. That said, when I feel I've come across an honest, reasonable, and competent car repair shop, I feel compelled to tell others why I was more than satisfied with their customer service and work they completed. Our minivan's A/C wouldn't work when the outside temperature was above 80°, but felt adequate whenever it was under 80°. I spoke to Ron (owner) via Yelp messaging when inquiring for service, Joe (Service Mgr) who booked our appt, and Ian, whom we checked our vehicle in with. All were professional, empathized with our problem & told us they'd get it back in operation. Our A/C was repaired in less than a 1/2 day! It was diagnosed & repaired w/ us only paying for their routine A/C service fee. Our seals in the service ports were 16 yrs old and the cause of a small leak in the closed system, and our Freon refrigerant was at 50% of what it should've been. All in all, we paid the A/C service diagnostic fee minus 10% since I had redeemed my Yelp check-in discount upon dropping off our vehicle. Our A/C is operating like it's brand new again! Great job AAMCO! And here I only thought you worked on transmissions...”

“It was Great, the place was really busy, but took good care of me. Good prices. Manager Joe at the front office was very knowledgeable, offered me cold water while I waited, and made me feel welcome and like I'm part of the AAMCO Family. Will definitely return for other services in the near future. Thanks again for the Awesome Customer Service !!!!!”

“The service was great. Joe did a great job of trying to get my truck ready quickly and was good at communicating the issues. My truck runs great now, even though it was in rough shape when I brought it in. Thank you to the whole team. Really appreciate the hard work”

“My experience with this shop was amazing. I would highly recommend to anyone who needs to get things done for their vehicle! Joe was very professional and genuine the entire time I was in contact with him about my car. ”

“Excellent service all around! Highly recommended!”

“Got in quickly, they identified the problem and quickly made repairs at a good price. Very happy with their work.”

“This place is good the staff was very helpful and friendly they explained what was going on with my car and got it taken care of in a good amount of time ”
