Precision Auto Repair is by far the best car repair experience I have ever had. This business is about listening to and developing honest and professional relationships with their customers. Their level of expertise is evident with their skilled research and knowledge of this industry. Consequently they provide their customers with the best and most affordable options they can. Being new to the area and coming from a rural east coast environment I didnt know where to go or who to trust. Typically many businesses seem to do anything they can to make a buck, especially when they see a woman coming. Oscar is not like that. Hes more than fair, has a strong sense of integrity, mechanical expertise and knowledge as well as a conviction to understand each individuals particular needs. He understands people and will do all he can to help them. Dont get me wrong, hes not a pushover! Hes as professional and business savvy as they get. He will work with you to get your car back on the road in tip top shape. I highly endorse this business and will continue to put my trust in this unusual company.

I’m happy I found this mechanic. The guys here are super friendly and responsive. I usually get my car back in perfect working order just a couple days after dropping it off. Definitely recommend!

John was superb! He was very responsive, transparent with costs, communicative about his reasons, and understanding of my needs. He didn’t pressure me in upsells. On last minute notice, they serviced my car within 7hrs. I’d definitely it let return!

Having recently moved to SF I am so happy to have found Precision Auto Repair. Having a good, trustworthy mechanic is on par with having a good shrink or hair stylist. Jiacomo took the time to address every item of concern, explained everything in detail, including what was not an urgent fix, and completed the repair in a timely fashion with excellent results. I will be a customer of Precision Auto as long as I live here and would recommend to anyone. Thank you!!

They were very fast on the diagnostic, but whatever they said was wrong with my breaks wasnt on my report. So I had to take it somewhere else to find out whats wrong with it and get the work done there.

Brought my car in for some basic maintenance after easily setting up an appointment that worked for me. Excellent service, got text notifications and was charged what I was quoted. Highly recommend and will be back for any other future needs! Thanks!

2004 Prius repair went super smooth and super quick! Water pump bearings made it sound like a lawn mower... John worked his magic! Im not used to communicative mechanics so this was amazingly refreshing as he told me what he found during the check up and made me feel like I was taken care of. I drove off a happy customer and will recommend your garage to the buddies.

This is the best auto repair shop Ive had the pleasure of using - not just in SF, but across the country! Family run, very prompt service, detailed, and always willing to help. Services have all been top notch, on time, and fairly priced. I dont leave many reviews but really feel the need to call out how amazing the guys at Precision are! Theyre also located right next to a Lyft bike docking station which makes dropping your vehicle off a breeze.

Great people! Trustworthy, communicate quickly, and so kind. A little more expensive than other places but well worth it for the peace of mind.

My wife and I have taken our vehicles (VW GTI and Mazda CX5) here for a couple of years now. John and his son have always been incredibly helpful and do a terrific job. I feel like they are always being honest with their assessment, while also looking out for the longevity of my car. More often than not, they are willing to take a look at my car same day, and are very quick and responsive in keeping me up to date on the progress.Would highly recommend!

Folks, going to tell you a story. I was out visiting California from Arkansas on a bucket list trip. 2 days in LA, 1 in San Fran, 1 day in Seqouia National Park/night in Vegas, Grand Canyon, then on back home. The mountain driving KILLED my brakes. After doing Coastal Hwy 1 up from LA, my brakes & rotors were TOAST! These guys got me in at 9:30am and out by 1pm. 4 NEW BRAKES & ROTORS. Called my dealership back home and they said the price was EXCELLENT! Missed the redwood trees but rolled into Vegas by 10pm for a great night! WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS MY GRATITUDE & APPRECIATION. Look no further San Fran! Best kept secret in the bay is on Divisadero Street. FYI - I called 4 places that morning and was told maybe the next day service or even the following week. NOTHING BUT LOVE FOR THESE FINE PEOPLE!

First off, i am not a car guy and couldn’t tell you the first thing about auto repair. i brought my honda accord to precision because i needed a few things done for a tune up. after 4 hours of precision having my car i get a text with quotes for the work that needed to be done. the very first quote was to get the air fuel ratio sensor replaced (the check engine light had come on recently and this was the reason) at the price of $449.03. i am familiar with this part because i had taken the car to another mechanic for something unrelated and he had noticed it needed replacing and told me i can easily do it myself and it wouldn’t make sense to charge me labor for something so simple. the sensor can be purchased at an auto parts store for under $100, and is located in the very middle of the engine compartment, easily accessible. to replace this part requires simply unscrewing it and screwing the new one in. that’s it. nothing removed, no special tool, just literally opening the hood, unscrewing one bolt, screwing the new part in, unplugging the old sensor and plugging the new one in. i went to the auto parts store, bought the part, and in LITERALLY 5 minutes had the new one on myself. to charge $350 for labor to do this is absolutely criminal, so i elected to take my car somewhere else for the rest of the work, and ended up paying precision $50 for the diagnostic check. i don’t know how you justify charging $350 for a few turns of a wrench and 5 minutes of time, other than trying to capitalize on the ignorance of your customers. shout out to gage auto on bush street for being up front and letting me know how easily i could do the work myself instead of overcharging me for the simplest part replacement ever.

John and his team were incredibly efficient and affable. Very reasonable prices and high quality service — took care to give my car a detailed look-over before proposing work. Also very cautious of COVID considerations. Thank you very much!

Recently, I had a peak new parent moment when my tire blew out on Divisadero amidst the wailing of my tiny newborn from her carseat. Fortunately, this shop was only a couple blocks away. We pulled in, these folks kindly fixed us up, and we were back on the road in a matter of minutes. We missed the doctors appointment, but I lived to parent another day.

John and the guys at Precision did a great job for me. I had bought a high mileage used car in a pinch, I knew it had some problems but really needed it to get back to work as an essential worker. I explained my situation and John totally got it- I needed all the work done in one day so I could get back to work. He had a couple guys work on it for a solid 8 hours and had it back to me by 5 pm that day running like a top! They did so much, including some details that weren’t even in the estimate. Thanks John!

I had my license plate stolen and couldnt get my front plate back on. They installed it free of charge and were so nice and empathetic. Seems like a place that takes care of its customers. Thank you for helping me out today!!

I grew up working at my families commercial auto dealership (big trucks) so I know a good shop and mechanic when I see one. John and his crew are absolutely top notch and extremely fair. Always gives detailed explanations and constantly working to be fair on price and delivery of promises. One of the best auto shops Ive ever used and wont take my vehicle anywhere else.

Ive been with Precision Auto Repair for many years, with multiple cars (Toyota, Subaru, Honda, and now Infiniti) and realized I should write a review. Over the years they done a variety of work. Recently they fixed my brakes and provided an oil change all with no hassles no unusual prices. I remember about 6 years ago, I came in and asked if I needed new brakes, they were honest and told me I did not need new brakes. I have never forgotten that. Good people, good attitudes, reasonable prices and timely. As you can tell, I recommend them.

My car broke down on the way to work and John was able to get me in immediately and fix it same day. I had just had work done on it a month before at another shop but after John it runs so much smoother and my gas mileage is so much better!

This is the 2nd time that I have got a haircut here. My hair looks Gorg. They listen to what you want and do a great job in delivering what you asked for. $95 for my cut. My hair always gets elevated when I come in for a visit!

Being a car guy, Ive gone through many different exhaust systems through my years of driving. The local exhaust shop next to my house that I typically go to usually has a long line of cars/people so I always dread going to him.
