Here is what our customers say about their experience at Active Auto.

★★★★★

"It's hard to find a mechanic you can really trust, but I feel like I've found one here. They took the time to explain the issues clearly without pressuring me into unnecessary repairs. The cost was fair, no hidden fees or surprises."

Rebecca Fosuaa
★★★★★

"They proactively followed up, ordered the part in advance, and had the repair completed in under 1.5 hours. Their pricing was fair, and their honesty stood out. I had my car back the same day."

Nilesh Mistry
★★★★★

"All 4 rotors replaced, new pads, calipers for $600. Far cheaper quote than anywhere else. Good work done the same day. Very pleased!!"

Dale Davies
★★★★★

"As a woman, dealing with cars can sometimes feel intimidating, but Hamza made the whole process stress-free. Everything was straightforward and quick, no pressure, no hassle."

Sterling Hall
★★★★★

"I was welcomed to watch the mechanics work. Pretty much an unheard of experience. Within 20 minutes they had my oil changed, my engine light was reset and my car no longer lurches!"

Malcolm Taylor
★★★★★

"They could've said to replace things and charge me but tried something first and had me drive around for a day to make sure before they recommended the expensive repair. Trustable!"
