Discount Auto Repair

~$1200 down, and my check engine light remained on. This has honestly been one of the worst shops I've visited, as they provided a poor diagnosis for my car. I informed them that the code for the check engine light indicated a problem with the mass airflow sensor and that I had already replaced it with a new one. They disregarded everything I said and instead proceeded to change my mass air flow sensor three times. They also changed other unnecessary parts. After taking my car back to them five times, I got sick of it. They even told me that they had a "specialist" look at it, and they don't know what's wrong with my car. Sometimes they wouldn't even give me my receipts because their machine wasn't "working," yet when I asked them to email it to me, they never did. At times, I would show up and be surprised by fixed parts that they never notified me about and charged me for, usually over $100 charges. I'm not sure if they think I'm wealthy or what, but I used most of my financial aid money to fix my car. I had to tell the receptionist to please call me before I get charged because I'm running low on funds. I left in this shop, with a check engine light still on and a broken mass airflow sensor case. They also ate in my car and left salsa stains in it (I will include pictures of the stains), and I know it was them because I never eat in my car, and I'm the only one who's in it. I felt disrespected because I cleaned my car out for them when I dropped it off; they could've at least wiped off the stains before returning it to me. It's a shame because I was recommended to go here by friends. As a college student, this experience was particularly stressful because I rely on my car for both work and school. I do thank them for fixing my A/C, but the service could've been better. My car is European. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND European Motor Cars in Chinatown if you have a European car. They charged me approximately $150 for a diagnostic, and the check engine issue that Discount Auto Repair charged me over $1000 to not even fix, was an air leak that was properly diagnosed using smoke. They charged me approximately $70 for a kit that included the O-ring my car was missing, and took pictures of all the issues my car had, quoting me for all the necessary repairs. My check engine light never came back on, and they did a courtesy car wash.

Giovanni and his team are the real deal. I usually work on my own cars but because I knew the job was going to be a HUGE PIA with only hand tools and because I had an extended warranty, I did not feel like dealing with the hassle. I called around town and Discount Auto was the only one on this side of town that actually knew how to process a warranty claim. My only other option was the Acura dealer which would have left me with a huge out of pocket because the warranty company would not cover the full “stealership” quote. Prices are fair, they use quality parts and customer service is top notch. I was a little apprehensive after reading the reviews but I could tell they are probably the opinions of people that run their cars ragged with no maintenance to the point of failure and expect a miracle. I’ll be back next week for a service I could do myself just to say thanks por ser el mero verduzco

I brought my 2020 ford f150 truck in for a transmission service and filter change. Geovani at Discount Auto Repair did a great job and explained everything clearly. They showed me the old filter and gasket, which gave me confidence the work was actually done properly. The truck is shifting smooth after the service, and everything feels good so far. Fair pricing and honest work. I’d definitely come back again for future repairs.

Awesome job every time I will always come back great service fast and direct Gerivioni is the best definitely recommend this place
