Pismo Beach Automotive

Pismo Automotive is the best! Tony and Anthony are both great mechanics who are honest and trustworthy. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else… I am so very thankful to have Pismo Automotive nearby. They always save my husband and I when our cars take a turn for the worst! They will get you in quickly and get the car problem solved at minimal cost. Thank you Pismo Automotive!

I want to thank Tony and Pismo Auto for fixing my car in a kind a trustworthy way. I’m new to town and like most people have been burned by garages in the past. But Tony and Pismo Auto have restored my faith in the mechanic trade.
My car broke down two blocks from their shop, the key would not turn and was jammed. Upon explaining the problem he jumped up to rescue and walked down to my car with me, assessed the issue and asked me to leave the keys so he could asses the problem further. He was able to get the car started and moved to his shop, avoiding a costly tow. Then was able to remove the ignition lock, take it to SLO to a lock smith who unjammed it, then re installed it. This saved me major money, since the dealer would have charged about $ 500 for a new lock and key programming. Turns out the ignition was dirty with pocket lint, dirt, and debris (a lesson to those who use their key for things they should not like opening letters and boxes).
I felt that Tony treated me fairly, troubleshooted the problem quickly, found the best fix that was cost effective and solved the issue. He kept me update over the phone and then when the bill came, the price was fair for the work+ time involved. Thank you Pismo Auto, I now know where I will be taking my car in the future!

The reviews here are true! This is the best shop and the owner is absolutely a gem!
Honest, hardworking, no games no bs. No hidden cost! I am here from out of town and truly grateful to find someone so honest. He is the go to person.
Thank you

Pismo Auto has been my «go to» for all my car needs. I work down the street so its convenient for me as well. But that’s not the reason i go there, i would drive MILES to have them do all my car needs. Once i got a flat tire pulling into work, i called down to Pismo Auto and not only did they lug ALL the equipment down from the shop they put my tire on and did it all right there in my work parking lot. SUPER helpful and great prompt service. And today i went there to get an old car of mine smogged to sell and since it was raining outside Tony gave me a ride to work two blocks away so i didn’t have to walk in the rain. Talk about SERVICE !!! I am so grateful for all the employees that work at Pismo Auto. They are so reasonably priced and have such a wonderful attitude every time i walk in there. I HIGHLY recommend using them for something simple to something complex cause these guys can literally do it all!

Thanks for being there and being so good. It makes a car with problems on a long trip almost bearable.

«My car broke down right in front of Pismo Automotive. I figured that the diagnosis and repair would be lengthy as well as costly. Anthony came right out to look at the car. He had the problem diagnosed in less than five minutes. He gave me a quote that was about half of what I expected, and the car was repaired and ready in less than two hours. If ever I need automotive work while I’m at Pismo Beach, I will certainly take it back to Pismo Beach Automovtive to have it fixed!

Anthony is the best at diagnostic the old fashion way. We were visiting the dunes and my truck broke down in nipomo at 2am we asked a guy at the gas station who he recommends so saturday morning off to anthonys shop we go
