The no cash policy is shady. I told the guy inside Idget the tire and take it to my car and instead the fixer brought it out while giving an unhappy look..When I said thank you, he mumbled under his breath. It was really disrespectful. The guy in the front was ok. I guess you dont need to be social to be at the front desk anymore, but whatever. My tire was fixed and in and out within 30 ish mins.Nothing else to say.
Ok so when my van broke down,i called AAA Auto repair and tt Joe~This guy was very professional and explained everything that was wrong with my vehicle and it was fixed in 1 day! Joe eased my anxiety and made my experience a positive one! I am glad i took my vehicle to AAA. I recommend this Auto shop to anyone who wants to get their car fixed or tuned up and with a reasonable and fair price
Six months ago,had car towed there by AAA,needed new alternator for $1100 dollars aprox,then it stopped working after driving only 500 miles or so because of covid. so brought car back and they did replace defective alternator,but typed on receipt,replaced alternator for one time customer service,so it seems the warranty is over after 6 months and 500 miles, the car is 2009 and the original alternator lasted 12 years .So they might need to evaluate the parts used and the warranty.I have AAA INSURANCE on 3 cars and 2 homes and AAA Premier member 15+ years and to add they left greasy oil footprints on my carpet floor .
The service was excellent I needed a ride home and they offered it I recommend them
Absolutely fantastic experience. Everyone was very helpful with my unique problems. The price was fair and everyone seemed genuine and honest. Aaron is the man, I am relieved that I found my new repair shop!
I pay for a service I dont get. Now my box truck isnt covered.
Dont waste your time here - They want 150$ to diagnose the problem . Even when they are made aware of what the problem is, they want to rip you off. Save your money & go somewhere else!
They got me in and out quickly plus I got to use my AAA discount.
Buyer beware! Tried selling my wife $800 worth of brakes when it only needed pads. Scared her claiming metal to metal. To me metal to metal is down to the rivets on the pads and the corresponding groove on the rotor....uhmmmm duh? Some brake pads have metal tabs to indicate by a scraping sound that you should have your brakes looked at. Was close, but brakes were quiet. Rotors were clean. Would they have admit that and drop the price down? Tell me I need pads and if my rotors are bad show me. Have them show you the problem or get a second opinion. May have been the sales guy but shops like this make me mad. 2 stars for prior decent service. Unless I just didnt realize I got ripped off! Makes me question it.
Worst experience. “Fixed” things unrelated to the problem, never gave an estimate or got permission. Owner/manager yelled when we challenged the charges.
Ever since they have changed from Petrillos I can never seem to drop off my car for a simple oil change on Saturday mornings. They used to be the best and always worked with you. Some of us cant make mid week appointments due to working
Fixed my a/c compressor same day. But the price for it was through the roof
Lazarus and Keith were very professional and friendly .Work was done in a timely fashion and I would definitely recommend them .
Aaron, Junior, and Laz were great. Billy and his crew got my transmission in so fast. Had to bring it back in cause the check engine light came on. They looked at it the next day. Everything seems to be working fine. Thanks so much guys!
It was the most positive experience the talk to me and explained everything that was happening with my car and let you know everything they were willing to work on after they got the approval from me to do the work, they have positive attitudes good energy over the phone and in person I would recommend them to anyone thank you.😊😀😁
Good, polite service. A little expensive, but very helpful in a pinch
1996 suburban broke down. Got towed here. Great service, good prices,nice staff, fixed it the next morning within 3 hours!
Took my rig in for a new rear main seal, quoted me the best price, pretty good service as well. Good discount if youre a AAA member 👍. They also cuaght a bad universal joint and replaced it after giving me a call 👍glad they cuaght it since I do alot of off roading.
I was told they didnt have a star certificate and I would have to keep the car there for a few hours for a smog??? 👀
They did not tell me on the phone several things which would have changed my mind about going there. First, you had to wait outside if you were waiting for your car due to Covid. It is 108 degrees outside with three fires burning in the area. Second, they did not accept anything but a credit card. No checks, no cash. They called and told me I needed a new air filter, I said no. I get that ever time I get an oil change.They did offer a ride home but who wants to get in a strange car with a stranger? Not me.I have more work to be done on my vehicle but I will go to Les Schwabs. Very disappointed as this is a AAA service center.
Been going there for years - they do GREAT work, and most of all, they are TRUSTWORTHY.
Sorry, decided not to have work @AAA,THEIR fees R 2high 4 me ..A senior citizen..
An oil change was a week and a half out, thats crazy!?
Gotta say, my very first time at petrillos auto care and the guys there are outstanding, the customer service is amazing. Dominic stayed late so I could get my car. Even though he had to reopen his end of day books. They did the work super fast and was fair on the price.. Thank you Dominic.. you have gained a customer for life!!!
Mark up on parts is double the price of actual said parts I understand the mark up business but theirs is ridiculous
They performed an alignment. The fellow at the counter answered all my questions and explained alignments. Will return here for my automotive needs.
Went in day after Christmas to get a smog. They got me in super fast! I figured i would just make an appt but no!! Yep got me right in great front counter help. 20 mins, great price, cheaper then i thought it was going to be. Ill see you when the next car is due!!!!
Very Friendly staff, my family has definitely found our new place to take our vehicles when we need work done or just routine maintenance.. They are very honest!!
Nice clean shop with a comfortable waiting area. Good professional technicians but the wait can be horrible when they are busy. I came here on a Wednesday morning and waited 2 1/2 hours for mounting a balancing four tires + a smog check. Otherwise it’s a nice shop, they take care of you if there is an issue.
Bill worked on and fixed my 51 Chevy. He did an outstanding job. Great customer service all around.
Excellent service, I had an issue with the quality of the brakes that were placed in the front of my vehicle, I came back two weeks later and they replaced everything with better quality products, no charge. I was impressed with the people upfront and how they handled everything, also with the quality of the work. Good people all around.
They were super busy when i went, but once they got to helping me it was super quick and relativelt cheap.
The quotes are always accurate, they take drop ins, usually have quick turnaround, and never try to upsell unnecessary stuff. They take good care of our vehicles.
I get my cars smogged here because they are the cheapest in town and their fast friendly service
Its now AAA Auto Care. We lost power to our Toyota Truck on 113. I called to see if we could drive there and get serviced. We arrived they took care of us they drove to Vallejo to get parts. Very friendly and kept us up on what was wrong.
Friendly professional staff. Great attention to detail. Good prices!
Dont go here for Brake & Lamp inspections. Was quoted over 300 for parts my car didnt need. When I asked the guy to point out where do those parts go on the vehicle that he wanted to order he couldnt point it out. Then they failed me on a brake and lamp inspection because a bulb was out on a taillight which was a quick change out in 1 minute to fix the problem and because I didnt have my fog lights connected on a aftermarket bumper. Then was told i would have to pay the 165 again for another inspection after I connect the foglights. Avoid this place. Go to Fairfield for brake and lamp inspections.
Great place, great prices. Most of all honesty and credibility. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
The service and the guys working there are awesome...also they are military friendly 😁👍👍
First time. very fast. affordable
We had a wonderful experience at Petrillos. The people there are so incredibly knowledgeable. They arent a HARD sell. They give you all the information to make an informed decision and then go from there. Their staff is bar-none the friendliest weve ever dealt with. Lets face it, buying tires is NOT something anyone enjoys doing. The owner Mike Petrillo runs a clean, tight ship and we would go back there for all of our automotive needs. Thank you everyone at Petrillos for all of your help.
My truck wouldnt stay running. Had it towed to Petrillos.They couldnt find anything wrong with it. They talked me into changing the fuel pump, filter, and relay for preventive maintenance. This cost me $883.74. The next time it wouldnt start I had it towed in again. This time they told me it was the pass lock sensor. They charged me another $647.37. I dont think the fuel pump, filter or relay were needed in the first place. They cant even be sure that this will fix the problem.
In 6 months, I’ve taken my two vehicles back on multiple occasions to have their work re-addressed; or discovered their work did not fix the issue. Or left a vehicle with them for 36 hours to find out they didn’t have the right parts, qualified technicians, and resources to do the job.Three separate repairs totaling $3,000+ to fix some clicking/noises in the front end, and the noises are still present. During this process, I had to return the vehicle 20 miles after a strut mount change due to severe rattle.$600+ for two transmissions seals, one of which shows new evidence of leaking after only 1200 miles. A mile after the initial repair, I had to bring it back to them due to high revving, gear slipping, and burning odors. The technician did not service enough transmission fluid after the seal replacement.They charge $125 per hour for labor, which is certainly the high range in the local area. If you’re going to pay that rate, find a reputable mechanic who double-checks their work.
We brought our 1994 Ford Ranger in for its first service in 6 years. New plugs, wires, oil, etc. Thing runs like a champ. Even got the tires rotated. Ive seen discussions about price... All I can say is we were in and out of there rapidly after just walking in without an appointment. The service was quality. You can always just get it done at any tune-n-lube by untrained personnel, or you can have quality work done by locally owned professional shop.Im putting my money back into the community in which I live.
Great price great service
My vehicle would not pass smog, so I wen tin for a diagnostics check and was told I would need a new air pump. This sounded reasonable as it was the most likely problem. I almost dropped the phone when the customer service rep told me it would cost $771 with parts and labor.I am not a mechanic, but after a very brief amount of research, I was able to find the part in town for $133. I then found a video on youtube and was able to remove the old part and install the new one in 32 minutes.After saving $638 by doing the job myself, I was left wondering why Petrillos felt the need to quote me so much for such a simple job. I came to the conclusion that they are either incompetent or dishonest. I will never use their services again.
Always fast. I have gone here the last 3 times to get my car smogged
Gade to go here for a smog test from the DMV, serves was fast and they took me as a walkin, great thank you.
The service was great.These guys did right by me, fast service too.They got my car done in a day and back to me. I will definitely go back when I need repairs.
The team at Petrillos tires was great. They made a mistake and did everything they could to correct and resolve the issue. If you want a place that gives great service, and stands by there work, this is the place to go. Thank you Petrillos team for holding yourselves to a high standard.
Im guessing it was the owner who I dealt with. Not friendly from the onset, never bothered to tell me how long it may be, basically walked away without even making eye contact.I brought in a $17.25 coupon from a competitor in Fairfield. Petrillos charges $19.95. I said I have this coupon I dont know if you price match but if not I have this one from the same booklet for you guys at $20. He said no we dont do that as he looked down.I sit down no more than 10 feet from them. Its a small waiting area. He then says this to the other guy up front:Going to call them owner (O) and worker (W):O - Theyre $17.25 at this place in Fairfield for smog.W - Oh yeah?O - Yeah. Just so you guys know we dont match prices. You know why?W - Whys that?O - Because if they want that price then go to Fairfield ok? This is Vacaville. So dont accept these for price matching.W - Oh I know!! Trust me I know! Im not accepting thoseHonestly was taken aback how rude and unprofessional he was. And over what, $2.70? Youll never find me coming here again.And trust me, Ill take my business to Fairfield, or anywhere else for that matter when I am on the market to buy new aftermarket wheels and tires later this year. You lost a customer over your unprofessionalism. Hope that $2.70 was worth it.
Excellent service. Got the job done quickly and well; reasonably priced.
Good place for vehicle service, good, friendly staff. Only draw back, it is expensive. I have had no issues with the work.
Totally misdiagnosed problems with our truck for 4 months. We were in numerous times, never could figure out the problem. Wouldnt step foot in there again for any reason.
Excellent service by the manager! Very professional and courteous.
My go-to place for car service, I feel like they always takes good care of my car and that I get fair and honest pricing.
They have always done great work on our car.
Reliable service. Work done when promised. Prices are comparable to others in the area.
Excellent social distancing
Great price and wonderful work! Ive never trusted an auto shop as much as Petrillos.
I bring my vehicles here for their smog check which prices are the best around
Been going here for years and have always had wonderful service. Simply the best!
This is a great place to have work done on your car, this is a family owned and operated business, great prices and so much more .
These guys know what theyre doing. Good service, reasonable prices.
People here are friendly service is great
Always good work, fair prices. Cheap smog and fast.
Great people to work for and we put a 110 percent in when work is being performed on customers vehicles.
Went to have oil change. Great coupon offers.
Will never go there again nor will I recommend to anyone ever again. When in for a specific problem took car back 3 days in a row with same problem after driving from shop home each time they just kept telling me it was something else. The manager was rude to my fiancé and spoke to me with an attitude. This place is a joke and a scam!! Only gave 1 Star because I had to put something I wouldn’t give a star at all after this experience. I hope the owner responds to this like he did in the other negative reviews cuz when I asked to speak to the manager he gave me attitude and when I asked for the owner I was told he hasn’t been seen there in weeks. Just poor service period
I just needed my temperature gauge replaced . They told me I had to have a diagnostic check first which cost almost 100.00. Then told me to come down to have it checked out. When I got there, the guy I spoke to who was friendly was on the phone so another guy reluctantly helped me but he was rude, dismissive and not helpful. So I went across the street to Aarons automotive.
Excellent service thats why I keep coming back
Always a good place to take your vehicle very trustworthy people
Good place!! Employees are really helpful one of them tell me a few problems that I did not know my tires had thank you so much.
Petrillos was fast friendly and very professional I would recommend them to anyone who needs any kind of service
Very easy quick service. The price was very affordable.
They are fast and helpful. They do smog checks.
The best Automotive repairs in town
Great service and affordable prices!
Great place for reasonable prices and treat you like family
Friendly, fast & good service. Highly recommended.
Took my truck to get smogged (California requirement) at a place on Aegean Way in Vacaville. They wanted $39.99 plus $8.25 Certificate fee - that would be $48.20. It has to be tested at a STAR station (used to be smog only test station). Dropped it off and walking to get something to eat I noticed a sign at Petrillos that indicated they were also a STAR smog test station that would do it for $19.95 plus certificate, so I went back and got my key and took my truck there. Got it tested for only $28.20! A difference of $20.00. Is there some kind of crooked business practices going on here? Is one place getting a little too much profit? Anyone in Vacaville getting their car/truck/other vehicle smog tested - I recommend Petrillos!
Great service and fair pricing!
ThinkGeek take care of all of your needs
Employee said they wont smog my truck cause I have the wrong engine oil in it... what bs!
