Automechs

they ruined my car these people are not professional there work is in question i really don’t think there know what there doing …

Wesson is so so nice that I’m sad to be writing this review. But, the work that was done on my car left me with a super dangerous vehicle. I took my car to AutoMechs to have a lot of work done on the front end. It is an old Subaru and Wesson seemed confident that he could fix the problems. They replaced the tie rods and in doing so cross-​threaded them and forgot to put in the COTTER PIN! This meant that I unknowingly drove from Oakland to Seattle with a wheel that was on the brink of falling off. The other major repair issue was that in replacing the brake system they somehow wrapped the brake house around the strut in such a way that there is tension on the hose and it will burst leaving me with no front brakes. So, after $ 1000 in repairs I have had to pay $ 600 to fix them and have been driving a car with a wheel that is about to fall off and brakes that may go out at any moment. Sketchy. Super kind people, but terrible and scary mechanics. Also, the repairs took longer than they expected and I was made to feel like I was to blame. I felt bad then, but now realize that they are just incompetent over at AutoMechs. Stay safe, stay away from this mechanic.

I have been taking my car to Automechs for 4 years now ever since they replaced my transmission that died on me in the Oakland hills while I was 8 months pregnant!
After Wessen, the proprietor, rescued me and my vehicle (he sent a friend with a tow truck, got me home, and charged me a reasonable rate for both the tow and the service) I have never gone anywhere else to service my Kia Rio. I personally ordained him «My Car Savior!»
He has single-​handedly kept my vehicle running. His service is timely and thorough. His prices are fair. His advice is sound. He has never tried to sell us repairs we didn’t need.
After years of great service, he has been known by our family as the «Original Car Whisperer» «The Car MacGyver on MacArthur» and «the Last, Honest Mechanic.»

Took my car their excellent service Reasonable prices! I would highly recommend. They told me I would have to pick it up the next day a a certain time & it was ready as stated & they explained to me the cost of everything with labor no surprises.

Wesson and his team were recommended to me by a friend. My Honda Accord (Hybrid) was in need of a couple expensive jobs. Wesson help me to prioritize which jobs needed to be done and then provided excellent work at a reasonable price.
Yay!!! Got me a new mechanic!!!
Thank you, Wesson & AutoMechs !!!

The guy here was super nice to me and I felt like I got a fair price on a new side mirror and installation. Also, one time I locked my keys in my car at the gas station across the street and he came over and got them out for me at no cost. Friendly local business.

After hearing from a friend about what a good experience they had at Automechs, I started bringing my cars to Wesson. About 5 of my friends started bringing their vehicles to him for repair, and we have all been really appreciative of his work. I created this Unilocal account just so I can post this.
I happy to know a knowledgable, sharp mechanic who has the time and patience to answer my questions and give me a good idea of what’s going on. In the last 2 years, I have taken 3 different cars to Wesson at Automechs. I have shopped around, and his prices very reasonable for the customer. His quality of work is very good. I trust that he is doing his best to solve the problem efficiently. Honest and friendly customer service.
Recently, I had a good amount of work done on a car there — including replacing head gaskets, a tune up, replacing brake pads, and replacing a front wheel bearing. My hubs were also in pretty bad shape, but since I was planning on selling the car after a few more months, I was erring on the side of passing on that repair to save money. While he was doing the other repairs, Wesson went ahead and replaced my hubs for me at no extra charge, as well as rotated my tires and fixed another small thing that I wasn’t even aware of. So, if you want to keep your car in good shape — go meet Wesson at Automechs.

I took my Mercedes to Auto Mechs after visiting a facility in East Oakland by the name of Family Auto Care. Family Auto Care’s service was far below average, and the mechanics at Family Auto Care were flat out incompetent. They held onto my Mercedes for a week, refused to answer the phone when I called, and neglected to provide updates on the progress or lack of progress with regard to my vehicle. Finally, after a week elapse, Errol the proprietor of the business actually admitted that he had reached the extent of his knowledge, and could not perform the repairs as promised. As a consequence, Auto Mechs, (Wesson) was recommended by a very good friend. Upon accepting the car for service, Wesson’s customer service and communication was immediate, and professional. He diagnosed the problem with the car within hours, and had the original problem resolved pretty much the same day, and at a reasonable rate. The car required additional work that I was not aware of; however, prior to performing the work, Wesson called and explained why the work was needed, and what it would cost. I got the impression that the man simply likes to bring a vehicle up to top operating condition before it leaves his shop. My car delivers a quiet, and smooth ride as a result of the work performed by Auto Mechs. It is irrelevant that Auto Mechs is African American owned; but be that as it may, if you ever wanted to support impeccable African American service, Auto Mech is the place to do it.

I’ve taken my vehicle to Automechs for repairs many a time. I could say a lot about how nice all the people are that work there, or the great prices, or how professional and quick the work is. But the thing I appreciate the most is that I know I can trust them completely.
I very rarely trust a mechanic. (Been crossed by too many bad ones in the past…) But these guys I can really tell are honest with me, give me all the info I need to make informed decisions about which repairs to do when I’m on a budget, follow through by giving me info I need to keep my car in good condition, and seriously know what they’re doing.
Definitely go with these guys. You will love them.

Great mechanic, duty bounded and with great customer servise. Price is reasonable and maintenance is highly professional. I recommend that you give the task of your auto-​repair to Automechs!!!

See Wessen. He is kind and helpful. These guys are honest, cheap and totally great. I have been taking my car here for repairs for the last 2 years. Not only is he honest, but he usually gives me a small discount. These guys are a professional as it gets. I highly recommend getting your auto repairs done at Auto Mechs!
