Fountain Valley Tire And Auto

I don’t write reviews. But I was blown away by the service that prompted me to write my first one. Here’s my story. I had a slow leak after a tire repair done by Firestone in Orange. I went back to Firestone and they told me that they won’t repair the leak because they don’t repair their repairs. They told me I need a new tire. I went to shop at Costco in Fountain Valley near my office but they told me I had to wait 3.5 hours. I had an appointment that I couldn’t miss, so I drove down the street to Fountain Valley Tire and Auto. They took a look at my tire right away and went about fixing the leaky patch. After that, they told me they did all that NO CHARGE! Boom… mind blown.

I have been going to FV Tire and Auto for years. The convenient location brought me in the first time, but I have been so extremely happy with their service I never want to go anywhere else for my car! They are honest, fair, helpful, courteous, friendly, extremely skilled (and I’ve never had a problem with any service performed there!!), respectful, timely, … in short, everything you could want in an auto repair shop and don’t find in most competitors. They’ve never pushed any product or service I didn’t need (even told me a particular item I came in for wasn’t really needed yet — more than once!) They’ve explained options clearly and without bias, answering questions and helping me come to decisions I am comfortable with. My Camry, though made to last a long time, is almost 15 years old now and still running beautifully thanks in largest part to the service it has received at their skilled hands! THANKS guys! I really appreciate you!

These guys are hands down the best mechanics. They’re very trustworthy, knowledgable and also very honest. Unlike other mechanics I’ve been to in the area, they let you know what needs to be done immediately and how long you can actually wait until you seriously need to get back in and get whatever fixed! They’re always so kind, especially Paul and Roy. I would highly recommend for anyone to come here for sure! Thanks again guys.

I came back here for some car maintenance after being told at the dealer ship I needed a couple thousand dollars worth of repairs. Fountain Valley Tire And Auto called me after a few hours of my car being at the shop and I walked away with an $ 80 bill. My car runs great and I have had no issues. Seriously– these guys are awesome and run an honest business– so refreshing to have that when searching for an auto shop!

Omg best ever! !! Fast in and out and fixed it free because it was such a quick fix! Also made sure I have the right battery when I checked. .good service all the way around!

Tried this place out because it is conveniently located for me… their honesty, fair pricing, and great customer service has kept me here.
They won’t say … you need a new this, this and that unless you really do. Paul even told me once as we were about to drop over $ 1,000 in repairs for my wife’s end-​of-​life Explorer that if it were him, he would just sell the car as is instead of putting all this money into repairs.
Mechanics are one of those businesses that everyone is afraid of getting ripped off by. My opinion, for what it’s worth, is that these guys are hard working, fair priced, and good at their job.

Roy and Paul always take great care of me! Everyone at the shop is honest and does great work. I highly recommend them!

Came in today unsure of what I needed for my car. Paul helped me out from beginning to end. Excellent customer service. Started with the vehicle inspection and replaced the necessary parts. I definitely recommend this place. I’ll be back to get more work done soon.

Paul and his crew are top notch! Who gives rides home while your car gets done? Also they never ever up sell you on any services which aren’t necessary. I found them through a referral and been coming here since!

Over the years Paul and his ace team have condistently provided outstanding service. We appreciate this and value the fact that they standby their work. Thank you guys!

I have worked with Paul over at Fountain Valley Tire and Auto for a few years. Tires for my tent trailer, tires for my Sequoia and tires for my sons Element. It was a pleasure to talk with someone that actually knows tires instead of a place like… COSTCO. Or any of those other corporate big box tire stores that advertise cheap tires, free tires… etc. And then when you go there the service is terrible. And the tires are not cheaper anyway. Save yourself all the hassle and go to FV tire & auto.

I want to start this review saying that I am a female in my 20’s and I am from New York living in CA by myself. I bought a used car and brought it to Paul over at Fountain Valley Tire. He explained everything to me and made me feel good about leaving my car in his hands. I always worry that an auto place is going to try to scam me, but I definitely did not feel that way w Paul! He has earned my loyalty as a customer and I would absolutely recommend his place to anyone!

Definitely speak with Roy! He was so helpful and told me exactly like it was. Car was done within the day! Definitely take advantage of the Unilocal coupon!

Great experience — clear and detailed explanation of the work to be performed. I was quoted one price at drop off and charged less at pickup as they did not have to do as much as initially thought. I will definitely be back.

Came here to look for some shoes to put on my car. Talked to Paul who helped quoted me on some tires and he didn’t try to up sell me on any particular brand. Told them I’ll be coming back next month. While at the same time they removed a nail and patched one of the tire for me at no charge. Great service!

Great attitude and service. Roy is helpful and professional.
I have taken 3 vehicles here and they earned my business from my prev. regular mechanic of several years.
Recently took my vehicle in for oil change and 2 other checkups. Was quoted a price, when I came back they only charged me for the oil change because other 2 items had no issues. Honest and reliable.

It would be hard to give this establishment anything less than a 5-​star review. The truth is, Paul runs his shop in the order he receives the vehicles and availability of parts. Sometimes that means being patient and leaving your vehicle at the shop. He doesn’t tell you it’ll be 45 mins and then make you wait 5 hours. He lets you know his best estimate and give you the option to take your car somewhere else before committing.
He uses that same mentality with tires even after spending an hour to help you choose the best suited tires at the right price. Matter of fact, Paul’s attention to detail and care for clients is the reason he takes care of THREE of our vehicles and why others continue to come back to his shop year after year. Its a mechanic shop, so don’t expect it to be pristine — but he keeps his place pretty clean.
But the best part, he SUPPORTS his community! Please, consider giving him your business. He deserves it.

My extended family has come to Fountain Valley Tire & Auto since we lived here. When my mom got a nail in her tire, she came here and they fixed it for free even though she didn’t get her tires there. Well, that sold her. She came here for her own tires and after comparing prices and that line at Costco, I came here for mine. I got premium Goodyear tires with a rebate.
I then ended up getting a nail in the brand new tire! I called over and immediately drove my car over there. They didn’t charge me to patch it up because I’m a customer. Now, I’m a loyal customer for life.
Support small business!

Had a little run in with a curb on the way to work. Noticed there was some cement bits between my rim and tire and figured I better get it inspected. FV Tire was convenient to my office and had good reviews so thought I would give them a try. I called in the morning to see if I could bring it in during my lunch and they said sure. Was in and out in under 15 mins. They cleaned out the bits of concrete, inspected to make sure there were no leaks and when I took my wallet out they said… no worries no charge. So nice to feel like I wasn’t being taken advantage of. I will definitely be back when I need tires and recommend them to friends.

Paul and Roy are really amazing at what they do.
Honest, effective, and efficient. That sums it up perfectly.
Give them a shot, you won’t regret it.
