I was overheating on my way into San Diego to visit my family. I stopped and put antifreeze in. I was on my way for a short trip to OfficeMax the next day when the engine temp light came on YET AGAIN. Clearly I had a leak so I googled the nearest Mini Cooper mechanic and Import Auto came up. I called them and they agreed to let me bring my car over immediately. I explained to them the situation. They were incredibly accommodating. They were able to get my car into the queue for repair and went out of their way to offer me options, guiding me to contact my home mechanic to see if certain work had been done rather than just indicating to me that it needed done. Their work was outstanding - they got my car back TWO days later - which given the amount of work and my unannounced visit - was lightening fast - and i drove him with confidence in my transmission and coolant system in 110 degree heat and had ZERO problems. I HIGHLY recommend these guys - they are total pros and fair!

Thank you for your review, Jeff! It's so good to hear about someone's positive experience in difficult circumstances. We're looking forward to seeing you and your Mini Cooper in the future!

2012 Subaru Legacy with an electronic parking brake not engaging. I called several shops all of whom mentioned they don’t work on an electronic parking brake and I should go to a dealer. Excellent updates from the staff throughout the repair. Detailed explanation and estimates of worst case scenario and what they thought after initial inspection. They told me what they thought they had to do, did not charge me parts/ replacements that turned out unnecessary, and made it right the first go - very quickly. Thanks very much.

We are so glad we could resolve the issue with your Subaru, David! Thanks for placing your trust in us and providing us with such great feedback. Much appreciated! :-)

This was the best car repair experience so far. From the moment Bill answered the phone and i explained the nature of the problem, I felt my Volkswagen Tiguan SE would be in good hands with Import Auto Specialist and their service proved to be impeccable. They looked at the car shortly after it was towed and send full diagnostic report highlighting what needs to get looked at first. The communication process was stellar, Bill was super clear every step of the way with the costs of estimate and repairs and it only added to the feeling of trust. The car was fixed in a short amount of time and they even passed on to us the discount that the part vendor issued them. Their service in nationwide and is backed by 30,000 or 36,000 miles warranty. If you are looking for excellent car mechanics, who are efficient, trustworthy and affordable please give Import Auto Specialist a call.

We are so glad we could help, Vika! Have a super weekend. 👍🏻😄🚘
