Thank you Bert's Car Service =) – Having moved here from another state (NY), I was thoroughly researching which car shop I'd like to have my car serviced. Initially, I had called in and spoke with Ron -- he gave me a clear breakdown of what the procedure will be, cost, etc. -- he was intelligent, upfront and very kind. I went in, and just like on the phone -- he was honest, etc. -- I choose to continue to work with him and appreciate all of his team's hard work. Thank you! JY
I don't recommend it. – I saw this place was recommended on citysearch, so I thought I would save some money by getting my 60K tune-up here and not at the dealer. Not only was Ron more expensive, but the experience was disappointing. They did not do all the work I requested until I asked them again at checkout--I even gave them a checklist to follow. Ron actually ran my car over some parts laying around the floor. The technician and owner got into a visible argument about when/how to rotate my tires. And the tires were so mi... read more
Great HONEST Repair Shop! – I was skeptical at first after reading all the reviews on CitySearch on how honest this place was, but I was very pleasantly surprised. Great honest service! Ron guides you step by step through the entire process and explains everything to you so that you know you're not getting ripped off. Service is very friendly and fast. Prices can't be beat! I would very highly recommended this place to anyone who needs service!
Mechanic and Honest! – Most mechanics are not honest, especially with female customers. Ron at Bert's Foreign Auto is honest and has never sold me on any unnecessary repairs. I am grateful to my last next door neighbor for giving me Ron's contact information years back when my Ford "Exploder" had a cracked cylinder head. I have recommended Ron to several personal friends who have been equally pleased with Ron's service. Don't let Ron's dry sense of humor throw you, he's just a kidder. Carolyn
BEST OF THE BEST - DONE RIGHT THE FIRST TIME – I moved to Santa Ana a year ago and haven't been able to find a mechanic I trust. A friend recommended Ron to me. I won't go anywhere else again. He knows what he's doing and he'll go out of his way for you. The work is reliable and done right the first time. Give him a try. You won't be disappointed in the service or the prices.
Super friendly, trustworthy, great service – Bert's is the best. I got tired of paying dealer prices, and I"m so glad I found Berts. Ron always takes care of me right away, no waiting, no hassles, no runaround, no games. He does great work, at great prices and with great service. This is probably the most straightforward mechanic I have found to date.
Honest, reliable, and the work done right and on time. Prices beat any one in town. – I own a BMW and have taken my car to my dealer as well as other shops in the area. A friend recommended that I take my car to Bert's. I don't regret it. ROn, the owner, is honest about what needs to be done. HIs prices are right. ANd the work is done in a timely manner. I won't take my car anywhere again.
Berts is my one stop diagnostic specialist and repair shop. Excellent prices. – It is nice to have one place to go to for all of my car needs. I have a Lexus and a couple of BMW's and Berts has taken care of all of my car for years. It's my one stop service center and the job is done right the first time.
BEST SMALL REPAIR SHOP IN TOWN – For the past six years I've been taking my cars to Bert's. I own 3 BMW's and 2 Mercedes, and I won't take them anywhere else. Give the place a try. You won't be disappointed.
