D&T Auto Repair

I think that once in awhile, you should be able to rate a business six stars. If that was an option, rating a business six stars for exceptional service, I would rate D&T 6 Stars.
These guys stayed open an extra hour and a half for me. And on a Friday no less. They were willing to take me as a last minute appointment when my car had issues on late Friday afternoon. Even when I called them to give them updates that the tow truck driver kept pushing back his arrival time, they were super friendly and not distressed about how late I would show up. That is really good customer service.
On a Saturday, they were able to get the part that I needed and have my car ready to go in half a day. They even fixed a minor issue for me — an issue on related to why I brought the car in — at no extra charge. I’m very relieved that I found a dependable, reasonably-​priced, customer — oriented mechanic in my area. I look forward to doing business with them again. Thanks again to Tien for doing such a great job.

Came here without an appointment and my S2000 was being worked on after only a few minutes. They did great work and the staff was friendly and highly knowledgeable. They have a competitive labor/​diagnostic rate to boot. Will be bringing my other vehicles in to be serviced here.

My friends recommended that I bring my car here to repair. I met the owner Tin and he was amazing! He is honest & told me how much it costs to fix my car. I went to the others auto repair shop just because I’m a girl and did not know much about cars. They charged me for unnecessary works that I did not know but compared to Tin, I trusted this guy. He is the one that I will bring my car to from now on and I will recommend him to all my friends!

Towed my over heated car here because it’s close to my place and the high-​rated reviews. Glad I did because the owner, Tin is friendly, honest, helpful and has reasonable rates for parts and labor. I found my new auto shop and he has great deals and fast service on oil changes. Wish I knew about his shop since it opened about a year ago. I definitely recommend this auto shop for repairs and maintenance.

This place is amazing! Easily the most competitive pricing available (by at least $ 200) and you can really tell Tien is trying to help you out. I had a water pump leak problem and he got it all fixed for me affordably. I highly recommend D&T. I shopped around prior to bringing my car in, and other places were either dismissive of me or quoted me ridiculous prices. After the repairs were done, he showed me all of the parts he took out and explained what everything did and any wear and tear he saw on it. If you have car issues, talk to Tien!

They were absolutely wonderful and I recommended them to a friend in need of car work immediately after I left! They were fast, honest and a very fair price. They showed me my break pads and rotor so I could see why I needed new ones and showed me the new ones before putting them in my car so I knew everything was as said; extremely honest company and highly respectable mechanics. I will be going back to them for all my car services including oil changes.

Great customer service at D&T Auto Repair. On 2÷1÷16, a large tree branch got stuck in the undercarriage of my car. I pulled it out but couldn’t tell whether I had gotten it all. I pulled out my phone, opened my Unilocal app and looked for a nearby auto repair shop. Based on the Unilocal reviews, I called D&T. They were super nice and said to come right over and they could take a look. I did just that. They immediately put my car on the block and took a good look around. Glad to report… no embedded tree debris. When I tried to pay, they said there was no charge because they hadn’t made any repair. Wow… you don’t find customer service like that very often! I insisted on tipping the tech. Based on my experience, this business deserves all the five star reviews. They gave me immediate assistance when I needed it and I would definitely return here for any future auto repair need.

These guys are really great and honest. Coming from an engineer that was a mechanic before I can see they do quality work and use the right parts. They had me in and out quick. I’ll be coming back here for everything I need on my vw. This is a place you can trust.

Wonderful customer service!!! I have brought all 3 of my cars here and never once had an issue. They take there time to explain what is going on with your car which is very helpful when you know very lil about cars. Never once have they tried to up sell me and there prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend there services!!!

Tien is theeee BEST! He is so honest, polite, customer service orientied, and such a wonderful expert! I don’t know why we didn’t go to him sooner.
I will be recommending him and his services to everyone I talk to… he is that good.
Take your car (s) here, he will NOT disappoint.
We live in Southbay San Diego and are so beyond satisfied with his services, that we would travel all the way up to 92 126.

Trusted and honest. Very nice person. Reasonable price. The best auto service in town.

Great find, good prices and who doesn’t want a reliable mechanic, I came here since he was recommended to me and now I recommend him to anyone.

Great place. Tien gave me a great deal on my alternator and he also finished it very quickly I was there a 9am and he was done by 12. great service.

This is the 4^th time I went to this shop. From the first time till now, this guy is still awesome. I don‘t know nothing about car fixing but this man is truly remarkably honest and trust worthy. So hands on and very reliable and charge cheap too. He don‘t go for the long talk he go straight to the point. I am surely will continue to recommend him to my family and friends. I am just glad that I meet my mechanic for life.

Tien is honest, reliable, and service is affordable. My mom’s car overheated and they sent a mechanic to assist her! Awesome customer service!

I’ve brought my car here. Tien was very thorough with explaining the car problem with me and he was very reasonable with the pricing and honest. Would not hesitate to return again.

Fast reliable cheap & best service auto repair shop in area.
Tein has good knowledge and experience of all sorts of cars.
Last car i took to him was 06 hyundai elantra for 120k mile servicing, awesome work done at great price and less time.

D & T auto motive should really be Tin Auto motive.
Tin is the man, he is one Man operation and a helper
He has just started this business not too long ago but he has been in this business for a long time working for other people
He finally decided to go and open his own business, it is not easy for a person to become a business owner, (from personal experience) but looks like he has it in him
Tim is always smiling and very kind to customers, regardless he knows a lot about his business, I have been taking lots of cars to him and out of 10 maybe one or two he would have problems but otherwise he’s very swift in diagnosing problems with cars
He has a very friendly office and accommodates kids very well, his prices are reasonable perhaps maybe it’s because he’s new but hopefully he will keep them as such
One thing I know is it’s very tough to own a business and I hope he survives and does good, I wish him the best!

Tien is very nice guy. My friend recommended this shop for me. It’s a great place for students. He always give customer with fair prices. Tien, the owner, is very responsible and got good skills. Highly recommend!

I had an oil change done by Tien a few months ago and will be going for my 2^nd visit tomorrow. The pricing is the most competitive I have found in SD. Additionally he is honest and very nice — I highly recommend him and encourage others to pay a visit if needing to get your car serviced.
