I recently took my car for a scheduled maintenance, I couldn't be more satisfied with the service I received. They thoroughly inspected my car and provided a clear report on the areas that needed attention. Will and the team were very professional, knowledgeable and efficient. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a reliable car care!

Responsive and relatively quick. They had an issue with their online shop camera so don't bother trying to watch them work.

Super great and stress free experience they definitely own up to the business name. Very knowledgeable technicians. Great price and price matching offers. Easy to book, reschedule appointments many ways to contact them to request service. 10/10 service.

Great customer service! Made an appointment to have my Tesla serviced. After a quick check they discovered I did not have to replace my brake pads replaced.

These guys were great. They recently took over my friends business and I wasn't sure what to expect. They were communicative and straightforward. Showed me items that needed attention but didn't press me on anything. Would absolutely recommend taking your vehicles there.
Business response:
So glad to hear you had a great experience with us! We totally get how changes in ownership can be uncertain, so it’s awesome to know our transparency and communication made a positive impression. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to seeing you again. Have a wonderful Stress-Free day!
My first experience here was great! Will was super helpful, informative, and upfront about the whole process. They were able to diagnose the issue and fix my car the same day on a Saturday, which was a lifesaver. They also offer a free Lyft service to/from the shop which was super convenient! I definitely recommend this place.
Business response:
So glad to hear your first experience was a great one! Will and the team always aim to keep things clear and stress-free, and we’re happy we could get you back on the road the same day—especially on a Saturday! The free Lyft service is just one of the ways we try to make things more convenient. Thanks for the recommendation—we truly appreciate it! Have a wonderful Stress-Free day!
After having a horrible experience with the Ford Dealership, coming to Stress Free truly was a Stress Free experience! The customer service from Will A. Was OUTSTANDING. When I came into the shop I was greeted with a friendly smile and he carefully listened to the concerns I had about my vehicle and he wrote everything I mentioned in the notes for the Technician to look over. I felt that I was heard and understood and the problem my car was having was fully addressed. Will even offered to keep the car over the weekend to 100... read more

Used Yelp AI to find a mechanic and Stress Free Auto Care responded in seconds! I was making a quick one night trip to San Diego from LA to visit the zoo and before I left, I noticed my coolant was low and ended putting the wrong coolant in! I noticed on my drive that my temp gauge was fluctuating so I thought the best option was to flush it and put the correct coolant. I'm so thankful for the quick response and friendly service! My car is a 2019 GLA 250 and the coolant flush and replacement was around $239.
Business response:
So glad we could help you out so quickly—especially before a fun trip to the zoo! Mixing coolants can be stressful, but it’s great to hear our team got everything sorted for you with a proper flush. We appreciate your trust and kind words, and we’re always here if you need us again. Hope you had an amazing time in San Diego! Have a wonderful Stress-Free day!
