Nick's Auto Repair

Our family was in search of an independent mechanic after our long time faithful shop closed for retirement. One day our 2003 Acura CL was starting intermittently. I just showed up taking a chance on Nick’s after reading a few reviews. I met Rafael, he owns Nick’s, and after leaving the car a few days the issue finally appeared for him. He diagnosed, serviced and called to say come pick it up. While at the shop I see a tire machine. For our 2006 Toyota Prius Rafael suggested we only needed two new front tires. I value honest people and after two visits with two issues (mechanical and tires) I am telling the neighbors. Pricing will vary depending on your need but service and communication were excellent. Thank you Rafael and Amador.

Valentines Day 2025 12pm on a Friday. My car pouring out coolant, went to the dealership who were helpful but said couldn't get parts for 4 days and we were 200 miles from. We googled family businesses and we went to Nick's. The team there ordered 4 different parts so they could get us back on the road and they fulfilled their promise and 3 hours later I was out the door and off to a Valentines Day Dinner and drove through the snow on Sunday back to California. Excellent job Team

Rafael is a very experienced and nice mechanic He deal fairly with his customers, I’ve been dealing with him for more than 6years now I will not trust anyone else to do my car repairs

If you are weary of mechanic's, want EXCEPTIONAL & HONEST SERVICE and EXCELLENT PRICES, Nick's Auto Repair is for you! My car broke down on 580 during a road trip to the Bay Area, fortunately my friend recommended I get towed to Nick's Auto Repair. Knowing I had a 300 mile drive back home, Rafael took great lengths to diagnose, fix and test my vehicle until he was confident that I could make it home successfully. Rafael stayed late and worked overtime, despite the fact that I was an out-of-town customer. Rather than inflating my bill by replacing likely culprits like the alternator, Rafael investigated until he found a loose sensor connection. My bill no way accounted for all the time he put in, I was so blessed by the affordability and his concern that my car be fixed correctly. My only disappointment is that I don't live in the area to make this my regular mechanic. Is it unreasonable to drive 600 miles so Raphael can be my mechanic? 5⭐s does not begin to cover it!

The one main thing that you need when you take your car to someone for repairs is HONESTY, and I have found that to be the case with Nick's. I have taken both my cars there and will continue to do so. If you are the kind of person that likes a repair facility with a super modern dealership like atmosphere with coffee and donuts while you wait, then Nick's is not for you. But if you don't mind a garage type atmosphere with cars parked here and there and a somewhat crowded scene than Nick's is for you. To me, it's all about the HONESTY and of course the expertise of the Mechanics. You won't regret it. At least that is my " Honest" opinion.
