“I'm very grateful for all the help I've gotten from this place, I recommend it to my friends...”

Bought my new tires and a new audio deck here back in May for my Hyundai Tiburon and had an awesome experience. I'm still very much in love with my radio 'til this day! They even installed my front license plate for free (and I didn't even ask).

Anyway, I had to come back again today to get my radiator fixed (an emergency) and received just as great of service as I did the first time I visited. Not only was Chris straightforward, he worked with me on price and was able to do the repair today, despite me not having an appointment.  

I'm very grateful for all the help I've gotten from this place, I recommend it to my friends, and I'll be back here again to get the rest of my repairs done soon.

“...their timeliness and professionalism cannot be matched anywhere else.”

Chris and Andrew are the most honest, informative, and knowledgeable mechanics I have ever met. I came in for an oil change and tune up on a used car I recently purchased and they took the time to sit down with me and explain that my radiator was cracked and explained the dangers of driving around with this, especially in this hot weather.

There were several other minor issues that they had caught and without their professionalism and attention to detail would have been missed and potentially ruined my car.

They were honest and worked with me to give a reasonable price and even gave me a ride home so that I would not miss important appointments I had scheduled for the day. I highly recommend Qwik auto center, their timeliness and professionalism cannot be matched anywhere else.

“You can tell these guys LOVE their jobs, and love what they do.”

This place is AMAZING. I JUST left here with my 2000 Oldsmobile, and it feels like a new car. I'm a woman, so most car places will tell me I need something done, not show me, and not explain it to me. These guys showed me exactly what i needed done, AND explained it and answered all of my dumb questions without hesitation. Not only that, but we can get my husbands 2007 v10 Audi done here. Most places don't work on german cars, but these guys do! Chris, aka the manager of the garage, is freaking amazing. He helped me out so much, and i will 100% be coming back here because of him. I recommend this place, to anyone and everyone, and specifically Chris. Thank you so much for doing such an amazing job on my car guys! I will be back!!! 

P.S. They will fix anything, and everything, including windshields!!! Amazing people, amazing atmosphere, and everyone was just such a pleasure. You can tell these guys LOVE their jobs, and love what they do.

“...they are always friendly to me and very honest and respectful and I trust them with my car.”

I absolutely love coming here! I bought the Groupon deal and that's what introduced me into these guys. (the Groupon doesn't include the disposal fee so if they charge you then read more clearly and cry to Groupon, not them) and ever since that I've been coming here and they are always friendly to me and very honest and respectful and I trust them with my car. I've never had any problems with them and if you want a truly honest and cool mech then ask for Chris! He did great with my car and told me what they'll have to do on my next visit for an oil change and all of that even showed me what will need to be done. (I just have to make an appointment) other than that I think this is a great place to go. I choose here rather than getting an oil change on base.

“Because nowhere in San Diego offers the kind of undercarriage cleaning that my engine required, Chris did it all by hand!”

Qwik Auto Center has taken great care of me and my car! I drive a 2005 Mini Cooper and, let's just say, it has had its fair share of issues. Chris and his team not only diagnosed my problem(s) immediately, but offered me a very helpful way of paying for the repairs by taking out a flex pay loan. A great example of how Chris assisted me, was that my engine was covered in oil from leaks that happened overtime. Because nowhere in San Diego offers the kind of undercarriage cleaning that my engine required, Chris did it all by hand! By doing that, Chris was able to properly fix all of the necessary leaks. I was very impressed! In addition to the repairs that were done, Chris and his team offered very affordable prices for both the repairs and labor. Anywhere else, I would have been charged double, if not triple the amount for all of the work that they had done. And lastly, the honesty that Chris and his team provided really helped me trust the quality of their work. It is hard to find a trustworthy mechanic who can provide all of these great qualities. I would recommend anyone to Qwik. They have a customer for life!

"EXCELLENT customer service and quality work! I took my car in for a window tinting and wow do these guys know what they are doing!"

EXCELLENT customer service and quality work! I took my car in for a window tinting and wow do these guys know what they are doing! From the moment I drove my car into their garage, I was warmly greeted by each individual who worked there. They were so helpful when it came to picking the proper shade of tint, and the option that I went with came with a lifetime warranty.......can't beat that! I wasn't in a hurry, so I dropped my car off with them, and several hours later they called to tell me it was ready to be picked up whenever I was ready. I've never really cared too much for my car, truth be told, but I must say that when I saw it tinted, and looking so slick, I gained a new appreciation for it. These guys did such a precise job, and I was extremely pleased. Overall, my entire experience was so great, and I highly recommend Qwik Auto Center for your car needs. Thanks guys!

"...they didn't take advantage of me and try to lie and say I needed stuff that I really didn't need."

They were awesome! Really friendly staff and were super quick! I'm a girl so what I liked most was that they didn't take advantage of me and try to lie and say I needed stuff that I really didn't need. I will definitely go back to them the next time I need an oil change again!

"Even when I did not go for the expensive stuff I did not get any negative feedback or vibes from them."

The staff and mechanics were very informative. They explained the different types of oil they use and why. Even when I did not go for the expensive stuff I did not get any negative feedback or vibes from them. I always get nervous with mechanics but they did not make me feel that way at all. They were a straight forward business and I like that.
