Thai is excellent! I went in to have my power steering looked at. He identified the problem was my power steering belt, replaced the part, replaced several other belts, and did it all for under 100 dollars. The car runs perfectly now without the horrible noises my steering caused before. In and out within 1 day! Best auto service I have had in years! I highly recommend Almaden Auto Repair.

I'm glad to finally have found the guys for my car. I can trust Thai without having to bring a guy in an autoshop so I don't get ripped off as a young female. I'm thankful for all the reviews that I based my decision upon! I had to shop around to change my timing belt and Thai offered the most competitive price. Not only was he friendly and honest (I'd requested transmission fluid change but he said it wasn't necessary yet), he let me borrow his personal car to use while my car was in the shop!!! He showed me ALL the work that had been done and never showed a sign of frustration for a million questions I asked. I once again went back for my brake change and he was so prompt, kind, and professional. Of course, he gave me an option to change my rear brakes in 3 months because they could last that much longer. Competitive price, well qualified mechanics, honesty, and professionalism. What more can you ask for?

I can't begin to express the sincere appreciation I have for the folks over at Almaden Auto Repair, especially Thai. Without getting too wordy, my personal predicament prior to having my car towed by AAA to AAR yesterday was as follow: Recently laid off from work, 96 Saab needs starter replaced, can't afford car repair costs quoted from past "Saab Specialists", unemployed with baby #2 on the way, desperate and in dire need to have said car fixed in job search endeavor etc,. etc. Enter Almaden Auto Repair and Thai. All I can say with warmest regards is THANK YOU! This is the most honest and caring group of auto professionals I have ever come upon in my life. It's all true! Thai listened, understood my current situation, was sincere and non-pressuring... simply put, just way cool; the best. A special thanks to Thang who worked on my car and went above and beyond to get my car up and running again. Just take your car there and see for yourself. I will never take my car to another self proclaimed "Saab Specialist" again. Almaden Auto Repair is the place for me going forward. I've already told all of my family and friends about the good people over at Almaden Auto Repair. Thanks again Thai and Thang!

Outstanding service. I took my Toyota to Thai to check for noise problem. Thai accurately identified the rear differential issue. He explained what the problem was, why it happened, gave very reasonable estimate. Thai not only fixed the problem but also showed defected old parts. Three weeks later, Thai gave me a ring asking if the car is OK and offered a following up inspection. That was done with free of charge. My car is running well and quiet now. I am so happy the service that provide. I definitely bring my car to Thai whenever it needs a service. I also highly recommend Thai to all of my friends. Thanks Thai for taking care of my Toyota.

I took my BMW to Thai's shop a little over a month ago when my car died. He was very responsive to all of my questions and even offered to install a separate part free of labor (i got a fuel pump installed and he installed the fuel filter for free). While waiting for the paperwork to be done, Thai offered me and my brother a complimentary soda (awesome!). I've recommended all of my friends to go to his shop since; and Thai even gave me business cards to hand out. If i had to describe my experience with this auto shop i would have to say 'honest' and 'straightforward'.

I was looking for a good and trustworthy mechanic to take care of my 2004 Nissan Murano. I have taken my Dad's car (Toyota Camry) to this shop for a smog check a while ago. I remembered how wonderful the owner/mechanic was and also saw his good reviews from Yelp so I decided to go back for several services on my car. Anh Thai was so warm, nice, polite, and professional. He test drove my car and confirmed the services that needed. He got me a very good price for the services (oil changed, brake fluid and power steering fluid flushed, and engine coolant drained and refilled.) Also, I asked Anh Thai to find out why my cigarette lighter didn't work. He found the problem (burnt fuse) and fixed it for free. I was pleasantly surprised how nice he was.... He also inspected my brakes and suggested not to change them yet. He offered to take a look at them 3 months after to see if they need to be replaced. He called a few days later to make sure everything is working... I really like this mechan

Whether you drive an import or domestic car, you want to take your vehicle here for service. The owner, Tai, has been working on cars for 20+ years. He is certified, totally genuine and fastidious. He offers quality service, guarantees and all, at affordable prices.Don't waste your money at the dealerships or shops where they often overcharge and add on "repairs." I always feel like I can trust Almaden Auto Repair.You may have a little bit of a wait because it's a smaller business but the service is definitely worth it.
