Needed to do an A/C recharge on my 2011 Honda Odyssey. Was able to make an appointment online very easily and got a discount doing it that way. They did a complete inspection and emailed me photos of what else was needed and how much each service costs. The price is very comparable to my regular mechanic, so I think they were very fair. They even ordered an Uber for me to get to work! I would highly recommend using this place and would gladly come back again. 

Business response:

We're so glad to hear about your positive experience! It's great that our online appointment system and discounts worked well for you. We strive to provide transparent pricing and thorough inspections, so we're happy you found everything fair and helpful. We're always here to make things convenient, including arranging an Uber. Thanks for the recommendation, and we look forward to seeing you again. Have a wonderful Stress-Free day!

$114 oil change. Yikes! If I was a business where someone asked for a quote I would research what my competitors charged. I could get an oil change in South San Fran where I'm at for $85 and thought I'd drive to Oakland for a cheaper price (getting new tires too). Oh well. They replied within half an hour. 

Business response:

Hi Pali, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that our oil change quote didn’t meet your expectations. We strive to provide competitive pricing while ensuring high-quality service and products. Our oil change includes premium oil and a comprehensive vehicle inspection to keep your car in top condition, which might explain the difference in pricing. We also want to note that your request was handled electronically, and you didn’t have a chance to experience our customer service and the value we offer fi... read more

I did not want to post a negative review but I sent the feedback below to Stress Free (sorry for the long read), and their response was that they would take a look at the car to resolve the noise "free of charge". The thought that they would consider charging for a diagnostic ($225) to correct an issue they've caused says a lot. I was surprised when they followed up with a voicemail reiterating that they would not charge a diagnostic, but that (of course!) other fees would still apply. I guess they didn't want to put that do... read more

The whole process from making an appointment to getting my car back was a super easy experience, truly stress free like their namesake. The car only needed a brake fluid job, but they still took the time to perform a detailed inspection report that called out future maintenance items and potential/current problems, and they were still timely with the original job. This really impressed me as it shows their attention to detail and reassures me that I've put my vehicle in good hands. While I was waiting for the car, I was able... read more
