Outstanding facility, thought prices were a little high 6.00 every .5hr should have been 8.00 hr... daily rates could cost you on a long duration project

Receiving assistance to get the job done is really important to me, As well as saving money. I still don't forget to tip the guys.

Everything is pretty much great till it comes to the prices. It’s about 8 dollars an hour for a lift, which is not bad but I got charged 25 dollars just to park my car in one spot that doesn’t even have a lift or anything for one day.

Good clean facility, tools and equipment in good shape. A bit pricey for a DOD benefit facility, but cheaper than the outside. Biggest complaint is you have to know where you are going to get there. Road off the main gate is closed so you have to go around and if you don’t know where it is you’ll never find it.

I always come to change my oil in my car there. Facilities are great, and personnel are very helpful. They had all the tools I needed to get the job done. Very impressive!

If you enjoy the benefit of coming to the hobby shop, you are blessed. This place is awesome, always clean, very knowledgeable employees work there and best of all ...they are always willing to help when you need it the most.

The staff at MCAS Miramar are some of the best I have encountered since buying me Chevelle and rebuilding it. From knowledge and actually HELPING you get your job done they unmatched, in my opinion, with the other hobby shops in San Diego.

Chris, Nate, Ping and Caitlyn are so awesome. I was so impressed of how much the equipment has been updated. Great place to keep your vehicles running great….I had fond memories of being at the auto hobby shop with my father overseas. I got to continue the memories with my son working on his truck. We replaced the entire front end suspension components…from the wheels all the way into the control arms bushings, we saved ourselves a couple of thousand dollars versus going to a mechanic. This is a vital place for the base to boost morale and hone skills and save money in an already price conscious economy. Keep finding this place. It is amazing.

Couldn't have fixed my car without this place. Got the help I needed, when I needed it. Got the tools I'm too poor to own 😆 and the years experience I needed when I felt stumped. Come on down and fix your car. You'll get lucky and see some really nice cars.

Great workshop, as well as knowledgeable staff. But don't start any lengthy projects unless you have deep pockets because a stall can run you somewhere between $50-100 a day

Have had a relatively good experience here. Equipment is in good condition and plenty of tools to work with. The techs are also pretty friendly and willing to help as well. However, I've been here a handful of times and notice the Asian lady working the front desk always in a nasty mood..Witnessed her raising her voice at a customer.

Helpful staff and plenty of stalls and equipment. Can't beat the prices here as other auto skills prices are steep.

Outstanding support! Excellent crew!!

Super helpful and knowledgeable staff. I’ve made so many repairs here. Good range of tools and lifts available to get just about any job done.
Feb 07, 2023
Super helpful, all you needed tools/lifts were available!

They always work with you. The staff is extremely helpful and is always walking around asking how your task is going. Bring your vehicle here for any maintenance you want to do yourself.

Decent place, compared to other USMC Auto Skills shops it is far behind. Staff either lacks willingness to assist or is restricted in doing so. Don't get me wrong they are a bunch of great folks...its just my comparison from my experiences. A bit overpriced also when compared to other skills shops but almost anything controlled by MCCS is now. If you know what your doing and don't require assistance it can be a great place to save time and money.
