I needed a 90K mileage service, so I googled car repair places close to home. I looked at reviews and comments for Stress-free and liked the idea of transparent pricing, I made an appt. My service guy and technician were very helpful and listened to my concerns. The diagnostic paperwork provides details like whether the repair is based upon actual need or damage, they include pictures or descriptions of damage seen during the inspection, or if the repair is based upon age or timing. This allowed me to choose only those ... read more

We absolutely love hearing this — thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review! It’s great to know our transparent approach and detailed diagnostics made the experience easier and more in your control.

Thanks again, and have a wonderful Stress-Free day!
I am soooo happy with the service I received on 9/29/25. I got clear answers about my vehicle, what was and wasn't wrong with it. I was given an easy to understand list about my vehicle in order of concern. My truck was making a noise only heard at freeway speeds that only started after I had gone to another well known "Complete Auto Care" shop in La Mesa. Stress-Free was able to get it sorted out quickly. I left their shop with confidence that my truck was in good hands. I will recommend this shop to anyone looking for grea... read more

This is such a fantastic review—thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We’re *so* glad you came to us and that the team was able to give you clear answers, an easy-to-understand game plan, and most importantly—real peace of mind. Those hard-to-pin-down noises can be frustrating (especially when they show up after another shop visit), so it’s great to hear we got it sorted out quickly and made you feel confident in the process. That’s exactly what we aim for with every visit. Thanks again for the recommenda... read more
I have been on the hunt for quite a while trying to find a place that provides solid service at a fair price. I have had some bad luck with other places in the past and was really hoping to identify a shop that I could trust to do what they say, and do it right, the first time. Well, I found it... I was pleasantly surprised by the overall professionalism and efficiency that this establishment presented. I will definitely be coming back to this place for any future vehicle needs. I want to again give thanks to Blake and th... read more

Stress Free was available when I needed work to be done and immediately set me up with an appointment withing 2 hours from the time of my call. The place has a Lobby which they keep clean and stocked with snacks and things to drink while you are waiting. Staff was very friendly and when I needed to get home from the shop they called and payed for lift to get me there. I recommend giving them a shot at your car repairs. In my case the price was higher then the value of the car so after the diagnostic test I opted out of repai... read more

That’s exactly what we aim for—no pressure, just honest help when you need it. Hope we can assist you again in the future, and have a wonderful Stress-Free day!
Friendly enough. They may overbook appointments. Don't know for sure but they seem always busy (At the shop in La mesa). Lounge is clean as is the garage. For simple stuff like fluid changes they are fine. Never needed anything more so can't speak to that. My only gripe is that the front desk is poorly run... computers are slow and out of date, personnel are poorly trained, printers may or may not work, etc. it makes for a bad look and causes me to question the competency of the technicians. Again, fluid changes are d... read more
Business response:
Thanks for sharing your honest feedback—it really helps us see where we can improve. We’re glad to hear the fluid services have been solid and that the shop and lounge felt clean and welcoming. That’s definitely something we take pride in. We totally understand how frustrating it can be when the front desk doesn’t run as smoothly as it should. It’s not the experience we want anyone to have, and your comments about the equipment and training are being taken seriously. While our techs work hard behind the scenes to provide qu... read more
I feel very comfortable leaving my vehicle with the staff here and I totally trust Dave with letting me know what my car needs and what are the most important things to address with my budget! I definitely would recommend them to friends and family

Great service! I took my car in for an oil change. They inspected my car and told me what needs address now or in the future. They even showed pictures. Being a women not knowing much about "car repair" I believe they are honest and will take my car back!
