Santa Cruz Auto Repair

These guys were great! I called half an hour before and they got me in and out in half an hour. I went to Marshall's while I waited. They charged me less than most other places in the area had quoted.

So, My Horrible experience with King Smog...well is better left unsaid now. I call Holiday smog after I dealt with the fact I'd have to get over the disrespect of Kings. Holiday smog was very weird on the phone. He completely yelled in my ear and went off about the DMV for no reason when all I asked for on the phone was a quote on my make and year. I didn't even get a price out of him. I took liberty of going to DMV first for my registration, then figuring out a smog place last minute. I call Holiday smog, assuring him (for some reason, is it his business?) That my DMV papers are up to date. I again asked for a quote, and instead of an answer I got another question. Yeah buddy, scoring point here! :/ Womp womp. After he replies, "Um, Didn't you just call...?" With aggravated tone in his voice. Like he hasn't wasted my time at all having to call back for a basic question!, but instead his with like golden rule. After some back and forth I get a very high quote. Another dead end... I do not want a hot head who gave me a run around on a high quote working on my car.. So I last minute, as I'm sitting in the DMV parking lot, weighing my options, call Bobby's Pit Stop. I briefly explain the experience I'm having, (not going into this much detail! hahaha) They said they are booked, but if I go right then they will fit me in. I race over and they are very helpful in squeezing me in. I also got the BEST PRICE IN TOWN!!!! Trust me, I called everywhere. I also got Bobby himself to work on my car. Very cool! He came back stating all is passing but timing and he has a part on hand for a cheap fix. I know my car was jacked and so I was okay with the small fee. He said it would be 15 min but got it done faster. Even noticed my tires were low and put some air in them. BY FAR the best smog experience I have had to date. I definitely trust him, and I appreciated how he valued my time, and wallet! I will definitely go there again for any needs. HIGH RECOMMEND!

Got me in quickly, did a great job and reasonably priced!

As usual, Bobby came through in an emergency.Our car died on the freeway at the end of the day. It was towed to Bobby's and he had it ready at the end of the next day.They are always ready to drive you where you need to go, in a pinch.We have been taking our cars to Bobby's for years and trust him implicitly.

This place is as reputable as it gets. I took my Acura Integra there and the owner Bobby diagnosed the problem immediately. A new head gasket and this thing was driving like new all at a great price and in a short amount of time. Although I recently moved back to the Bay Area, I will still take my car back to Bobby's Pit Stop anytime I need a mechanic

always prompt courteous and efficient

I was well taken care of. While waiting for my smog check I had a chance to hear the business operate. Bobby (Owner) handles customers in a friendly professional manner. I heard him tell his mechanics in regards to minor fixes to "just take care of it" a couple times. Their prices seem to be competitive and honesty above the norm.

I have a 1978 Ford and I was having a really hard time getting it smogged. It had been flagged as a "gross polluter" and worked on by lots of other people who probably didn't know what they were doing. A mechanics nightmare. I went to four other places but no one else wanted to take the time to deal with it and I was even told by one rude business owner that "I was beating a dead horse and I should get a new car" before he hung up on me! Anyway, I dropped it off with Bobby and within 2 hours everything was fixed and it cost a little over $200. VERY HAPPY!! Would absolutely recommend this place and feel like they're really honest and friendly.

Good, as always.

great service and quick! love you guys
