Excellent service.
B and C auto, is a family owned and run business. Ray and Cory will answer any and all questions, clear, and you never feel hurried. The Service Tech’s are amazing. I have never had a “go back”, where something wasn’t fixed correctly. They back their work, and from Ray and Cory, to the girls in the office, and the Automotive tech’s, they all work together to get the job done, the first time.

Great customer service
B&C is very knowledgeable on diesels and Carli Suspension if you want any work on your diesel mechanically or suspension these are the guys to go to in San Diego. I personally drove up from El Cajon because they were recommended by CJC Off-road.
Cory L. from B & C Auto Repair responded on 10/08/2025 09:30 AM

We appreciate your kind words and are pleased to hear that you made the journey from El Cajon to visit us! 🚗 It seems that our reputation among diesel enthusiasts and off-road aficionados is cruising well, and we’re glad to be a part of it. Rest assured, we take our work on Carli Suspension and diesel vehicles very seriously—after all, we wouldn’t want anyone’s ride to feel like a rollercoaster! 🎢 If there's ever anything more we can assist you with, just give us a shout. Safe travels on your next adventure!

This is a great shop
B and C was recommended to me by a coworker of my wife. The people there are quite personable and extremely knowledgeable. Cory worked hard at diagnosing the issue with my truck instead of just looking at a code and changing one part after another which was my experience at other shops.
Cory L. from B & C Auto Repair responded on 10/03/2025 09:30 AM

We greatly appreciate your detailed feedback! It sounds like Cory truly put on his detective hat to get to the bottom of your truck's issues! 🕵️‍♂️ Our team prides itself on digging deeper than just the surface, and we’re glad to hear you experienced our dedication firsthand. If only diagnosing vehicle troubles could also come with a treasure map! 🚗🗺️ Your trust in us means a lot, and we look forward to continuing to serve you and your truck in the future!

Replacing a fuel injection computer
Every effort was made to find the parts for my truck. My vehicle is a 2003 and many parts are not being produced. I will find out soon if the used parts work well. The integrity of the owners is the reason I will continue to do business with B&C
Cory L. from B & C Auto Repair responded on 09/19/2025 09:30 AM

We genuinely appreciate your insight into your experience with us. It’s always a pleasure to go the extra mile – or should we say, the extra few decades – to track down those elusive parts! 🚚 We pride ourselves on our integrity and strive to maintain strong relationships with our customers. Let’s just hope those used parts have more life in them than your favorite pair of shoes! If you require any further assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out. Wishing you the very best with your truck! 😊

Outstanding Shop and Mechanics
I love and trust B&C, and have had a relationship with them going back 15 years, when Cory did extraordinary work on transforming my son's pickup, who'd just joined the USAF. I drove the completed project out to him and he was thrilled. That truck served him several years. I cannot say enough good about the team.
Cory L. from B & C Auto Repair responded on 09/17/2025 09:30 AM

We are truly delighted to hear about your long-standing relationship with B & C Auto Repair! It’s fantastic to know that our work has not only made an impact on your son’s pickup but also fostered such a trust over the years. 🚗✨ We pride ourselves on creating exceptional transformations and it sounds like that project was a labor of love—one that your son surely appreciated, especially as he began his journey in the USAF! We’ll continue to strive for excellence, and we’re glad to have you as part of the B & C family. Here’s to many more years of smooth rides and top-notch service! 😄

Love being able to work with the Owner operator
It was an amazing experience working with Cory! I’ve been looking for a great diesel mechanic and I’m so happy to have found a 3rd generation family owned business to work with! I will be back as long as I own my Chevy Diesel truck and will probably try to come back even if I don’t! Highly recommend!

Amazing service quality work
I had a great experience at B & C. From start to finish, the team was professional, honest, and efficient. They took the time to explain what was going on with my vehicle, gave me a fair quote, and got the work done on time. It’s not easy finding a shop you can trust, but these guys really go above and beyond. The customer service was excellent, and I left feeling confident in the quality of the work. I’ll definitely be coming back for any future repairs or maintenance. Thanks again!

Always 5 star.
I have a 2003 Honda Civic. They have NEVER let me down, and with that old of a car, it’s a roll of the dice. GREAT communication, all questions answered, and time frame met, or was ready early. It’s very hard to find a not only good mechanic’s, but honest ones. B&C Auto they have the best!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. The mechanic was Robert. Ray and Cory are always on site. This time in, my front carpets were vacuumed!!!! THANK YOU!!!!

Great experience with AC fix
Had some AC problems. Got as far as I could on my own and took it in. B&C got it in the day I called and had it fixed the next day for cheaper than originally quoted. Great experience and will definitely be back.
