We had a Jeep YJ that would not pass smog. After several weeks of troubleshooting for vacuum leaks, fuel pressure, exhaust leaks and I cant remember what else, a friend told us to take it to Circle M. They had it fixed in a couple days and it was back to passing smog with flying colors. We should have taken it there from the get go. Thanks Chris and the Circle M crew!

I've been a Circle M customer for several years now. It all started with a smog check. I was then introduced to their maintenance club which is not only convenient but it is a tremendous value and savings over retail. For convenience they even set you up with a no charge Uber if needed when you drop off your vehicle for service. They offer a quality service quickly and affordably. Special thanks to my service advisor Cesar for his expert care and frequent communication keeping me in the loop every step of the way. I've even had a chance to meet the owner Chris, who's very friendly is never too busy to say hello and thank his customers. Give Circle M a try and support a local family owned business right here in our community.

Too bad there's not a ten star rating option. I just had my rear brakes repaired. The customer servic I receive from Circle M is the best I've ever experienced. They kept me in the loop and showed me why my rear brakes weren't working. It took a little longer than expected to finish the job, due to my Suburban being older and not being able to find new parts for it, but they did it! Any other shop would've put in used parts. I really appreciate them doing that, since they know I use the Suburban for daily driving, pulling trailers, and family traveling. I will be bringing in my BMW for brakes, next. Thank you Will, Ramon, Marcos, and Charlene.

My "check gages " light came on and voltmeter went to zero while traveling from LA to North Bay. I stopped in Bakersfield to get alternator diagnosed on urgent basis. Charlene was very helpful on the phone while I was trying to find a shop that could get me in immediately. The shop ran diagnostics and the alternator passed which gave me confidence enough to complete the journey. They charged me nothing and could have upsold me to a new alternator relatively easy but took the ethical path. Thank you Charlene and Will!

My cars cooling fan broke down and they tried to charge me $350 for a diagnosis. I originally thought it was the quote of the entire fox but they said no. What was shady is the lady tried to get me to sign without mentioning the price.

I called Circle M Tire & Automotive for the first time today. I spoke with Cesarand explained my situation with my key fob & he told me to come in to see if they could help me. I went in around 12:30pm. Cesar greeted me with a nice smile. I gave him my key fob & he had it fixed in no time. And no it wasn't the fob battery. I had the fob battery replaced Saturday. I appreciate his knowledge & kindness. It's a very clean establishment & friendly. I am going to be giving them all my business for my automotive needs. I am recommending them to everyone I can. Thank you again Cesar. You made this Senior Citizen's day

Took my car there to get the front brakes done and fix a leak in my power steering fluid about 9 months ago. They replaced the power steering pump. It never fixed the leak and had a different mechanic look at it a few months later and it turns out the leak was somewhere else entirely. Today I was informed after a wobble in the steering when I brake that the brakes are warped and were installed improperly by Circle M so I am having to replace them again. Feel completely ripped off by this place.

Circle M is the absolute worst place in the world you can do business with. To say that the owner represents his business poorly is to say the truth. The auto shop will rip you off insanely, $1200 for my brake pads to be renewed. They also broke multiple other parts of my car so that I could come back and spend more money, definitely took it somewhere else. They forgot to put a screw back into the caliper which caused my rotor to go bad within days. They're also forgotten to put lug nuts back onto a friends car which caused their tire to fall off. This business is a rip off to say the least. Save yourself and do not take your vehicle here.
