I can’t say enough good things about the team at El Patron and the work they did on my car. I needed both my engine and transmission replaced—a massive job—and El Patron handled everything with total professionalism from start to finish. What really stood out was their constant communication. I was updated every step of the way, explained what was happening in clear, honest terms, and never left me wondering about the status of the repair. On top of that, pricing was extremely fair, given the scope of the work. I never felt upsold or taken advantage of. The car runs beautifully now, and I have complete confidence in the work that was done. If you’re looking for a mechanic who is skilled, honest, communicative, and truly cares about doing the job right, El Patron is it. I would recommend El Patron without hesitation to anyone.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was my first time going to El Patron Auto Shop, and I’m so glad I found them! I chose them because of their great reviews, and they absolutely lived up to them. They were quick to inspect my car and immediately identified the issue. a cracked metal piece underneath the front of my car that was causing a bad smell inside. Not only did they diagnose it fast, but they also fixed it just as quickly. I had the chance to meet the owner, and I really appreciated how hands on he is. You can tell he genuinely cares about his business and the quality of work being done, instead of just leaving everything to employees. That made a big difference to me. The pricing was very reasonable much better than what I was quoted at the dealership and even better than Casey Automotive. I checked multiple places before making a decision, and as a woman, I’m always cautious about being overcharged. This shop was honest, fair, and transparent. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend El Patron Auto Shop to anyone in the area.
View on GoogleMarcelo has saved me on multiple occasions. My car died and he came out to see if he could get it going. He always offers fair prices, fast efficient service and is very honest. I highly recommend El Patron to all my family and friends.
View on GoogleMarcelo and his guys are absolutely the best, Yesterday was my first time being a customer and it won’t be the last.. I have an older truck with an engine light that’s been on for 2 years. I was referred to Marcelo from a chain tire store to get it diagnosed and repaired so I could pass emissions. From start to finish, Marcelo is wonderful. Friendly, helpful, very knowledgeable and most important, honest. I have a Tundra with 4 catalytic converters. Marcelo replaced only the ones that needed fixed, instead of selling me on all four. It’s actually weird to not see that engine light now that my truck is fixed. Once you talk to him, you can tell Marcello is an honest guy running a very professional shop.
View on GoogleThis is the best mechanic shop out there. No rip-offs. Just honesty. I highly recommend for any car repairs and/or services. I'm lucky to have found out about this place.
