BEWARE! Referred here by discount tire for an issue that discount caused. Mission village claimed they found the issue and it would cost $900 to repair. We got a second opinion at Pacific Automobile (highly recommend) where they found the issue that Discount tire had originally caused and didn’t charge us anything. There is definitely some scam happening between this place and Discount Tire. Dishonest company

Marvin always takes care of me and my fleet of vehicles! I know our students will be safe after the vehicles are services and maintained by Marvin and the crew here! The prices are not going to break you either. It's a good feeling to finally find an auto care place that's honest, good competitive pricing, fast and efficient. I use them for my own needs and my families needs as well.

*** NEARLY 38,000 MILES REPORTED OVER ODOMETER READING *** I’m honestly not one to write reviews, but this is kinda sketch… 1st visit was good 2nd visit: My car was there for approximately 5-6 weeks (waiting on parts). However, after waiting over a month, my car was ready for pick up. Upon picking up my car, I noticed that my receipt showed my new mileage being nearly 38k miles more than when I brought it in. I addressed the issue on the spot, so they just crossed out the odometer mileage on my receipt and stated they would correct it later; which should’ve been around 2 miles more than when I brought it in. I trusted them, so I left it at that. However, I followed up with Mission Village Auto Repair regarding this issue a couple of months later as I was trying to get an online quote to sell the car. While completing the online quote process, Carmax stated there was a discrepancy in mileage on the odometer and that the last recorded mileage is 37,935 miles more than what my car’s odometer was reading. I called Mission Village Auto and addressed the issue, told me that they hadn’t corrected the error yet, but will. I asked them to please make the correction as I’m selling the car in a few weeks…. I waited a couple of weeks before taking my car to Carmax to sell. Turns out that Mission Village Auto never corrected the mistake and CarMax stated that someone rolled back the odometer. This mistake on Mission Village Auto’s end and failure to correct it, had cost me $. Carmax confirmed that the last recorded odometer reading was still reading nearly 38k miles more than what was displayed on my odometer. I don’t how why Mission Village Auto can make such a mistake and not make any efforts to correct it. All I know, is my car was in their possession for 5-6 weeks and upon return, my car was reported to have nearly 38,000 miles added…. Never returning to this shop again.

Best shop in San Diego, fast and reliable service. They’ve completed a variety of large and small repairs on my vehicle, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else. Really a fantastic place. Highly recommend.

Called in to get a service paid by Discount Tire. I was welcomed to come in asap, customer service was humble and helped to take care of my vehicle maintenance 100%. I had some wait but again I was welcomed in at short notice and I was able to get my vehicle back within 2 hrs, which was not a problem at all. I’m was happy to drive home safe! Thank you!

Fair and honest. Great service. I've been going here for years with several cars, Toyota, Ford, Acura, BMW they do it all. They recently took care of my son's brakes and with him being a new driver I feel so secure knowing they did the work. I highly recommend!

Finding a mechanic is stressful. Visiting Mission Village Auto renewed my faith in the industry. They were compassionate and patient while going above and beyond to diagnosis the issue with my car. If you are looking for a reliable and respectful garage, look no further.

GREAT customer service. Very knowledgeable and thorough. Ask for Marvin he's as honest as they come. I won't take my cars anywhere else.

I have been coming here for years now for oil changes, servicing, major and minor repairs. Eric, Marven, and the rest of the employees treat you with the utmost respect. They have never tried to push a repair on me- they do make recommendations on when a repair needs to be done and explain thoroughly. Great business, overall. Highly recommend!!

This place is hands down the best automotive care center in San Diego. I’ve had a couple vehicles in and out , for big jobs to simple repairs and I each time was comfortable in the abilities of the techs they have on staff. I would 100% recommend this establishment to anyone needing their vehicle serviced. I will be using this place until the combustion engine is outlawed haha. Plus the muffler shop across the way is very good as well.

Honest mechanics and quick turnaround. Will be going for all oil changes on my car now and in the future.

I came to get a free brake inspection and they were really friendly at first. But as soon as I was debating to go through with the brake service, the owner started guilt-tripping me saying that if I left; it would be a “slap in his face.” I didn’t enjoy how he was pressuring me, though I understand that he had a business to run. Then as I was driving my car after, it was noticeably worse then when I first came in…

I was in town for the week moving my son into his condo for school. On the way down my car temp started to go up to 3/4! Pulled over and I had a leaky heater hose. I googled auto repair in my area and MVAC popped up at the top and I noticed they had great reviews and in business for a long time and they were only one mile away. I called and spoke to a young lady and told her my situation. I know most repair shops schedule you days or weeks out but I was leaving in 2 days. That’s when she let me speak to Marvin (I think the owner) and he said bring it in and we’ll take a look. Marvin was very accommodating and he called me back 30 min after dropping off the car. He was able to replace the parts the same within a few hours and I was back on the road by 5:pm, 3 hours later. He did what needed to be done and didn’t charge me extra or try to upswell me a new engine...lol OMG that’s what I call a lifesaver! I was able to stick to my schedule and get my son moved in! I HIGHLY recommend Marvin and his shop to anyone!!!
