Precision Auto Electric & Air Conditioning

I first contacted Mick a week ago, I found Precision on Unilocal as the highest rated company to get my a/​c fixed in my honda. When I talked to Mick over the phone he asked me several questions about my vehicle instead of just wanting me to bring it in so he can get paid. It took Mick some trouble shooting to figure out the problem but he did. He replaced the leaking hose with a custom made one, instead of me having to come back another day and as promised did not charge me again to fill it up. Mick did an outstanding job of making sure my vehicle was ready in a timely fashion, as I was traipsing around Temecula on foot in the mist/​rain. Mick was fair with the pricing and made me feel like a valued customer. I have told everyone I know about Mick and my A/​C works better now than it ever has. Thank you Mick! Now I drive around in my Honda Antartica!

Needed professional AC service on our 2003 Toyota Tacoma. At 180,000 miles we began experiencing intermittent issues with the AC system. Ran fine on the freeway but around town would blow warm air after starting out cold. I replaced the condenser and drier units myself, and did a poor mans freon recharge with help from a friend. Still had the issues with intermittent warm air while at lower idle. So, did some research on Unilocal and made the drive to Murrieta from Escondido today after speaking with the owner, Mick, on the phone this morning. I dropped my keys with Kimmy the receptionist, and she drove out truck back so Mick could take a look. The initial estimate was $ 90 to evacuate and recharge the system, and this would provide a baseline where Mick could get a better handle on any issues. Clearly explained up front I’d like to add. I waited in the clean reception area, several magazines were displayed but I mostly noodled on my phone. After about 20 minutes Mick emerged and introduced himself. We went over the brief history of the vehicle, and his diagnosis was just a system recharge! There is a possible fan clutch issue, but Mick could not be sure. He gave me a quick lesson on AC technology (in easy to understand terms) and explained the variables in my Tacoma’s system. My freon was ½ pound low, which they refilled, added some oil to the system (maintenance), and had me on my way blowing ice cold air all the way back to Escondido. We discussed the fan clutch replacement and I received and estimate for that repair, but in Mick’s opinion it want necessary yet. They installed a thermometer in my AC vent so I could monitor the temps and return if anything changes. Who does that? A business owner who values the trust of his customers, that’s who. And Mick fits this description. Thank you!

Mick and his team are right on. They reply quickly via email and my appointment was set up via email. When I got there at 7:45 am they were already open. Less than 20 minutes to diagnose the problem. Needed my AC discharge hose replaced and a refrigerant fill and and total wait time was only 2 ½ hours. Owner is down to earth and even offered to bring me somewhere if need be. As I declined he even offered me a coffee. Out the door for only $ 526… about half of the dealer price. Warranty on the hose is 1 year and the hoses they use are thicker and better quality than original hose. While I was there, he quoted another customer that he needed to replace a hose… after about an hour he told the customer bad news he has to replace 2 hoses but he wasn’t gonna charge him for the 2^nd one. Now that’s awesome! I truly recommend these guys for all your AC repairs and needs. I live in Corona and the drive was about 33 miles, but well worth the drive to receive the service and professionalism, not to mention they are honest and reasonable in price. Definetly coming back with all my future AC repairs.

This place was what all the reviews said it was I was new to the area and checked Unilocal looked at the reviews and even though I had to drive 30 miles I had to give them a try. they now have a customer for life. thank you

I was in and out in 2 hours… no nonsense or runaround… parts (condenser) were in stock and the price charged was reasonable… considering what others wanted for the same service… my Honda is a happy car with nice cool air once again!

Mick did an amazing job on the repair of my car. I could not be happier. He made every effort to work me into his schedule when his competitor didn’t have any interest in helping me. He interacted with my insurance company and kept me in the loop on all the details. He loves what he does and it shows in his attention to detail. Mick has now worked on 2 of my vintage cars and there are 2 more that will be paying him a visit. I highly recommend him.

I needed a quick fix no air super hot. Was in and out in less then an hour. Fair prices, good service. Will be back.

Mick not only knows his stuff, he commits, gets the job done and always has a friendly smile on his face. I should have done this a long time ago but better late than never.
I took in my 92 4runner last June once the temps got high and I had procrastinated on doing the work myself. I wont bore you with the entire story but Mick not only told it to me strait, but performed phenomenal work at a fair price. My 4runner gave him a run for his money but he kept going until he got it right. Even with me putting my 2 cents in and trying to go the ultra cheap route and my wife bugging him to finish up when I had the other car at work with me in San Diego. Stand up guy and stand up work!!!

OUTSTANDING SERVICE!!! I was having issues with my 2000 GMC truck so I took it into Mick and not only was he prompt in repairing my vehicle, it didn’t cost half of what another mechanic was going to charge me around the corner. Polite, professional, and a great mechanic. Kudos to you and your staff!!! Happy New Year!!!

This place was great. Found the business on Unilocal and chose them because of the reviews. All these 5 stars are right on. Mick got my wife’s cars ac back in action in one day. The price is what really surprised me. I figured I was gonna be eating top ramen for the next month, but the install on a new compressor for an 09 Mazda 3 was $ 500 cheaper than expected. Mick didn’t BS us either we explained what was going on with the car and he knew right away what was wrong. Got the part ordered brought the car back the next day and was finished before close of business. Works like new again thanks!

My 05 4Runner needed an AC service. I called them, let them know I was coming, they had me in and out of there within 30 minutes. Guy that runs the place was super friendly. I like that he didn’t try to upsell me or lie to me. He told me if anything goes wrong later, like a leak, bring it in and they won’t charge me the service charge all over again. All in all, great place, I’ll be back. Good prices too.

My 2005 Yukon XL’s AC was starting to blow hot air intermittently out of the driver’s side vents only, while the passenger side was getting cool air. So in searching Unilocal for a honest automotive AC shop, I found and read the reviews for this shop.
I made an appointment the day before (10 AM) and when I arrived was greeted warmly by the young lady that appears to be the shop’s front office manager.
I met Mick who also greeted me warmly and explained some of my AC system’s symptoms, including that a local GM dealership strongly recommended that I change out my AC compressor belt as it was observed to be severely cracked by their mechanic.
Mick surmised that the system may be low on Freon and wold run some other diagnostics to see if he could ascertain any other issues.
Mick came back and advised me that he added some freon and that while my AC system was cooling sufficiently, it would not be cooling at what the normal range is, but at this point there were several variables that could be causing the problem but he would not be able to identify with certainty what was the cause.
Mick gave me several possibilities all which would not require replacement but collectively may all cause the less than optimum cooling temps. He also discussed with his finding of his compressor belt inspection: he stated that the belt looked fine and if it was his personal vehicle, would not change it. Me, being somewhat proactive, and having lived and driven this vehicle for 7 years in the hot Las Vegas weather, I chose to have him replace it anyways.
Incidentally, Mick showed me the belt he removed from my vehicle: there was no signs of cracking one would normally see on rubber belt that is over 9 years old with over 128k miles, exposed to prolong periods of hot weather and constant usage. Mick did point out one small crack that was normal wear and tear but that was it. It pissed me off that the dealership was trying to tell me the belt was in need of replacement.
Overall, the time for Mick to change out my belt and add freon was about an hour, and his pricing was very reasonable as well. The dealership was giving me an estimate of $ 135 for R/​R the belt, Mick was approximately $ 79 (parts and labor).
Based on his honesty and giving you good information to make an informed decision (s) on which repairs are required and which ones can be postponed to a later time, I highly recommend this business owner for all of your vehicle’s AC and electrical repair needs!

I’ve had (3) of my vehicles a/​c serviced at Precision over the past 5-​months (a Mercedes, Yukon & Cherokee) and couldn’t be happier. The owner (Mick) is a wizard with air conditioning and auto electric. He explains what the problem may be, completes the service in a timely manner and always charges what I consider to be an extremely fair price. This is one of those rare shops that you can go to knowing you’ll only be charged for what your vehicle needs and nothing more. Way to go Mick!

Air conditioning started running warm and was happy to stumble onto this place. They are quick and friendly. Will recommend to everyone I know!

My Nissan Titan started blowing hot air suddenly. I checked the Unilocal reviews for Precision Auto Electric and several other businesses and decided to take it in. Mick diagnosed my problem, a leaky compressor, and had me in and out in no time. I’ve had bad experiences with auto repair shops over-​charging for similar services in the past. Mick was honest and explained my options. In the end, the price was right and the service was great. I will definitely return to Precision Auto Electric for all my vehicles’ air conditioning and electric needs.

In 2012 I was dealing with a check engine light for most of the year, I came across Precision Auto Electric & Air Conditioning back in November through a community phone book and decided to give them a try. I met the owner, Mitch and I knew right away that he was going to solve my Toyota 4runner’s problem. He took the time to explain to me what each of the codes meant pertaining to the check engine light and what he had to do to rectify the issue. I was impressed with Mitch’s professionalism, integrity and most of all his honesty. My Toyota 4runner no longer has a check engine light thanks to Mitch and his hard work! I highly recommend Precision Auto Electric & and Air Conditioning!

We were first time customers needing air conditioning service on our ML500 that was only blowing warm air. We’ve tried the recharging cans they sell at stores and that didn’t last for more than a week. Mick immediately acknowledge us as we entered while he was working on a vehicle in the shop. We were under the impression that we were going to pay a ridiculous amount for our Mercedes to be serviced, but that wasn’t the case here. We wanted the job done right the first time, and that’s the kind of service and knowledge Mick offered. We were in and out within 30 minutes and we kept our arms and legs. Overall, he was very honest and precise with his work. Thank you for a job well done!

Hi guys my name is Joe, and I wanted to take the time to jot my expierien with precision. Mick is certainly an awesome guy from start to finish. I’m a skeptical kinda guy when it comes to shops. So I had a problem with my air conditioner and Checked out percision and was pleasantly surprise of a shop expierance. Mick diagnose my problem and took the time to explain my existing problem and what the remedy would be.
At end of the day mick took care of my truck with awesome pricing, awesome service, and explained everything in detail.
Joe Q
Mick’ my guy I won’t be going anywhere else «A+ «for percision!!!

So my A/​C went out 2 years ago and i call the shop i normally take my car to. They quoted me $ 1650. I call around 4 other shops and the ballpark for the whole entire A/​C system in my Honda to be fixed is between $ 1500-​$ 1689. I just said forget it, it’s too much.
This year i was searching on Unilocal for auto A/C’s…this is the first shop that popped up. I called… I was told that they couldn’t really give me an estimate over the phone without seeing the car first. I told them that other shops told me that it’s most likely the compressor. Mick said they have this thing called a «2^nd opinion verification» and before going to fix the compressor they check first if that’s really what’s wrong with it. So I made an appointment the next day and sure enough the compressor was out. We left the car overnight, came back the next day and it was done! I had my husband’s car checked as well since his A/​C wasn’t blowing cold air anymore like it used to. They refilled his freon and fixed my A/​C compressor… we payed only $ 1200 and got a free shirt, parts & labor warranteed for 2 years… we were happy!!!
This shop saved us nearly $ 500. It wasn’t only the saving money part that we liked… Mick was very helpful and super nice. The girl in the front was nice and helpful too. Will definitely be referring this place to my friends & family.

I was happy to find this shop. Mick was not afraid to help with a small troubleshooting job on my old 72 Chevy pickup. Price was fair, the job was explained in detail, done when expected and he definitely knows what he’s doing. I’ll be going back. Thanks, guys!
