My 97 S10 pick up needed a new cooling system so i took it to Associatedfor a new radiator. I hot top notch service and Moses even took me to my doctor appointment in Pasadena so that I could leave my truck at the shop over night for repairs. Great shop that can take care of all your full service needs. I will be taking my truck there for oil changes and maintenance as well.
I had not been driving my car for about 5 years until last April, due to medical problems which have fortunately been resolved. I used to take my old 1997 Honda Accord EX wagon to Associated for maintenance and to fix any problems, but when it recently started running very badly, I took it to them, and they diagnosed it and fixed it quickly, and I was on my way! They are as reliable as ever! I am one happy camper😉
Great service. Diagnosed some issues i’d been dealing with for a while. One of them was attributed to a recall my Jeep had. He took it to the Jeep dealer and had them perform the recall in between the repairs to my vehicle. It saved me time and the worry of having to arrange dropping it off myself. They are AAA approved as well which saved me money with my membership.
It's taken me a few weeks to post a review and with mixed feelings based on my most recent experience. I've taken both my 2013 Kia and 2007 Accord to AAS, I've been happy with service for about a year now, returned every time for maintenance and repairs. This last experience has me beyond frustrated and disappointed. My kia needs axel and transmissions service, both repairs i planned to do on my next pay day. I took Kia in for regular oil changed was reminded of the need to replace axel and transmissions fluid flush. Was informed by Danny that my Kia is in great condition not burning oil and it's a good car. The very next day I see a small leak on drivers side, Danny asked if I noticed my axel leaking which I had not. I park my car in my carport I would 100% notice ANY leak. As days continued the leak increased, I then checked what type of leak it was and to my shock it was fresh oil...lots of it. I returned immediately after and requested they check what caused the oil leak, perhaps the wrong filter? Something is not tighten correctly or filter not set correctly. Never has my car leaked oil and now oil is gushing out. The car was lifted and cleaned and the feedback I received was it was coincidental and it was the rear main engine seal and would cost 1400 for repairs!! I am still in shock, disbelief and frustrated. I spoke to mechanics and all have said something went wrong during the oil change. Unfortunately Kia dealer is so backed up with there diagnostics they don't have availability till a month out to even get an appointment! I find it hard to believe that a car with no oil leaks gets an oil change and now gushes oil and that it was a coincidence. The right thing to do would have been to split the cost on repairs which would have been the 700 which I could have invested on the axel and trans svc...now I am left with a decision to sell or fix
I've been a customer of Associated Automotive for many years now. Moses and his crew are top notch!! I highly recommend them for all automotive repair needs !!!!
