Formula Auto Repair

This has been our mechanic for over 20 years. They do amazing work. Their friendly an honest. Hugo is the owner. I would highly recommend everyone to see Hugo. If he can’t fix it he’ll send you to someone who can. 3 thumbs up!!!

I have taken my cars for years to Formula since 1998 till the present! Hugo the owner is an awesome mechanic! The shop may not look a dealership but they fix your car better then the dealer and at less then half the price if he can depending on parts! He can almost know what’s wrong with the car by just listening to it! You can trust him and he will not go high on the price by fixing your car! I recommend this shop and ask for Hugo honest mechanic which is hard to find this days!

This shop is awesome! It looks super sketchy and definitely not like your normal repair shop, but the people here are very honest and trustworthy, and the service is fantastic. my car crapped out with a cylinder misfire so I brought it in and they had my car repaired in just a few hours. On top of replacing the coil that wasn’t functional they also checked all my spark plugs and tightened them because they were loose. They charged me a VERY reasonable price for the repairs and now my car is running smooth. :) I’m very pleased with their work and I’ll definitely be back here for my future needed repairs.

This is a great shop. It’s a really small, garage-​looking shop and doesn’t look like your normal repair shop, but if you can get past that, then this is the place to go. Hugo, the owner, is an HONEST mechanic. He is not a salesman, he just gives it to you straight. I ended up getting my oil changed at another establishment and they suggested that I get both my rear trailing arm bushings replaced because one side was missing a piece and the other was cracked. The repair and parts would have cost close to $ 400, so I decided to get a 2^nd opinion.
Fortunately, I found Formula through Unilocal,and decided to take it in for inspection, which is free! I originally tried calling to get a quote for the repair, but Hugo wouldn’t give me one because he didn’t want to give me a price and then have it differ after the inspection. I respect that. And of course, Hugo was honest and tells me that my parts did have some wear on it, but should still last me for years. The other guys were just trying to rob me. So I didn’t end up actually getting any work done at this shop, but the biggest thing is that these guys are honest mechanics. So next time I do need some actual work done, I’m going to bring it straight to Formula.
This is also my first ever review. that’s how much I wanted to get the word out because these guys deserve it!

I have been using Formula Auto Repair for about 7 years now. They are HONEST and the prices are excellent. Hugo and Ruben are great.

These guys are my families’ trusted mechanics. We have gone to them for years because of their honesty both regarding the work that needs to be done to our cars and the cost of repairs. Trustworthy, get the job done, all around awesome!

Had to give a shout out to my boys! This is the best auto shop in town. It’s as «Old School» as you can get. Ask for Hugo! He is the owner… it’s behind a paint shop, and gots all the tricks and whistles. What does that mean? Easy, it’s a straight shooter. While most take there cars to establishments like:
Midas
AAMCO
Sears
Dealer
Most believe there big name means great everything. Not the case usually it means more money out of your pocket. At formula, you get the straight… DEAL! Hugo will tell you almost instantly what’s wrong with your car, and bust it out with little effort. And he is going to give a fair deal, and not trump up a bunch of stupid charges.
Just don’t hit him up in November. Why? He is out Racing the Baja 500, this is his time to chill, so hit him up! Tell them «Vincent» sent you!
