San Francisco Automotive Solutions — Local services in San Francisco

The owner of this shop is very knowledgeable, patient, kind , and helpful. He answered all my questions easily, without any pressure for additional work I needed new tires, and he asked me to take a picture of the tire that I presently had and text it to him. He was then able to get the exact replacement tire at a very reasonable cost. The cost for routine maintenance also was very reasonable. Since I do not like to get up early in the morning to get my car to him, I was able to drop it off the night before, and it was completely ready by noon the next day. Mercedes had moved to South San Francisco, so I was very happy to find this place in the city. I am in sales, so I hate to leave my car in the shop for as long as Mercedes usually requires to have it. Dropping my car off the night before and being able to pick it up by noon the next day made it very convenient. The work was completed perfectly and in such a timely manner, it made it so essy for me to get in and out of there picking up my car sparkling clean after they had washed it. I am so glad I found this shop, and wish I would’ve...

Have been bringing my vehicle here for the last several years, always timely and skilled repairs. The level of workmanship and professionalism is impressive. Most recently I brought the vehicle in for an engine repair and after fixing the problem, they noticed a pulsation in the brake system during the test drive. The brakes were under warranty from when I had them replaced at the garage earlier this year so they replaced the parts free of charge, just as you'd expect any honest garage to do. Full recommendation for Pat and the team at SF Automotive.

Update: Brought my vehicle to get serviced prior to towing a trailer for the first time since a gnarly accident involving towing a trailer. The team at SF automotive thoroughly inspected all components of the vehicle involved in successfully towing a heavy load long distance. Pat made thoughtful recommendations for the critical elements to address while being conscious of cost. Moreover, he was patient and assuring when my anxiety from the crash led me to be ask A LOT of questions.

Why take your vehicle...

GREAT experience. I brought a 98 M3 and had Patrick and his team do a detailed lookover and change the tires. I had picked up the car a week back from a private seller who showed me a clean Car record, service history, etc. It was my mistake to take their word for it. It had been in an accident, it had cracked engine mounts, cracked transmission mounts, and the rear tires were 8 years old. Patrick advised me that he would give a quote only if he felt the rest of the car was worth repairing. Thankfully it was, but it was a bit job. I even asked Patrick if I could price shop his quote, he let me. A dealer said- "This price looks really good and these guys are really good, my cost would be at least 40% more" Today my new old 98 M3 drives like it was new. Patrick also, smartly, fixed up the lower control arms, sway bar links and did an alignment. His cost for Tires was REALLY good too. Overall, every future performance Car I purchase will be brought here. Satisfied customer is an understatement. Thank you SF...
