Went in looking to do a number of services. C&G was very transparent about everything and advised me on services that did not need to be done yet. They checked my brake fluid and transmission fluid and said neither of them needed to be changed yet. It was a breathe of fresh air to go somewhere that wasn’t just trying to overcharge every service they can. Will definitely be going back for future services.

I can't believe how long I've waited to leave this review C&G Auto is absolutely a phenomenal place to bring your vehicle to get serviced. Geo, one of the owners, is such an amazing and genuine guy just in general, then you add the fact that he works on vehicles and you have yourself a recipe for a trustworthy, time efficient, understanding and well priced garage to bring your vehicle. My brother-in-law pointed me to him 3 years ago. Had great service on that vehicle. Fast forward to this past summer and my son needed one lug nut replaced. Other garages were charging $80-$150 to do this. Geo literally was a fraction of a fraction of this. In fact we tipped him more than he charged because he was so understand of our situation (it was a front wheel on a Hyundai sonata and getting the calipers off of those is a pain in the rear... Otherwise we would have done it ourselves). Now fast forward again to 3 months ago. I was changing my oil on my Honda Pacifica and noticed a lower control arm bushing was coming out. I took a picture and sent it to Geo and asked for his advice on if we could just replace the bushing or the control arm. He gave me an honest and truthful answer which was the arm needs to be replaced and you should do them in pairs. I totally forgot about this until last week. So I called him and he got me in the following Wednesday! So I bought my own parts, brought them to him and he had them done that same morning. BUT, while he was down there he found a larger issue, one that I was aware of but never could figure out where the oil leak was coming from. Ended up being bad seals in the oil filter housing. Turns out that this model year is known for this issue due to the housing being plastic. He replaced with a metal one and recommended a "tune up" while we had all that hardware removed... Which I totally agree with. But what REALLY STANDS OUT for me is his customer service. Geo is the only mechanic that videos real time updates, issues, explanations, etc and texts them to customers. This was so unexpected but SO appreciated! He was able to literally show me the issue, where it was coming from and why it needed to be replaced. Geo ended up sending me 4 videos that explained what he found, what he did, the update and finally the recap of what was done. Being able to see the cracked seals and where the oil was coming from was very comforting!! I can not recommend C&G Auto enough!! Don't let the small building give you 2nd thoughts at all. Trust me, it is filled with a crew with big hearts! Thanks Geo and the rest of the C&G Auto Crew! ¡Muchísimas gracias! >Steve

My apartment management decided to be a prick and make up a new rule before I could finish my front end work. They were able to work with me to finish the job at a reasonable price, installing the new parts I already had. Hard to find a trustworthy mechanic that'll do that these days.
