Unless your vehicle requires premium gasoline, filling up your vehicle with high-octane gas is a waste of money. The premium gas doesn't boost your gas mileage or performance. If you're not sure what grade works best for your vehicle, your owner's manual will tell you. You can also ask your mechanic what grade to use.

I scheduled smog for my car which I do there to any of our vehicles because they are great! Service has always been excellent even when we need general work or repairs. Staff is always friendly and respectful. Sometimes we forget to call ahead and an walk in and if there is a gap in appointments I can leave our cars there and they will call when ready.

Best experience. They were able to diagnose and repair all issues quickly on our Buick. Car had been at a different shop (which we had been using for years, only to have their service to become shoddy in the last few months) for 2 months without being able to be diagnosed, was told nothing was wrong. 5 Star Auto is the only place our cars will be going to from now on! Courteous, professional service. Kept updated every step of the way. Simply the best!!

I have done smog checks on all of my vehicles over the years with Five Star Automotive. This week, I came in without an appointment. Jamie was friendly, courteous and got me in and out quickly. It is always a pleasure doing business here!

Very good service here, know what they are doing and are reasonably priced. Never feel like I'm getting ripped off especially as a woman it can be hard to find a good mechanic who doesn't take advantage of the fact that you know nothing about cars or prices etc. My mother has been coming here for years and she loves it too!

Had nothing but issues with this garage. Staff was unfriendly. Made the whole process of getting my catalytic converter replaced much more difficult (and expensive) than it needed to be.
Please just be careful with this place.

These guys are horrible! They say they are a smog check shop, but not exactly! They Can Not do all smog checks! They are also extremely over priced! They miss diagnosed my car, tore it apart, didn't do any work on it, and still charged me hundreds of dollars! Do Not Use these guys! Save yourself the money and frustration! Go somewhere else!

Well this is the 3rd vehicle I've brought to Five Star Automotive and I've been pleased every time
Honest, thorough and reasonable
I took my 2004 Infinity G35 in to diagnose a mysterious ticking sound. They figured it out before completing diagnostic test, and fixed it. Then reduced diagnostic fee
Wow someone who's not going not gouge me?
Excellent !

I don't know if there are different owners now, but this shop has been easy to work with and reasonably priced both times I've had my car serviced here in the last year. I had routine maintenance done and they do a free check of all systems, as well. Will definitely be back and would recommend.

I called 2 weeks ago to schedule a smog. At the time I called I told them that the check engine light was on. They said that this would be an instant fail until work was completed. When I tried to drop the vehicle off they said they had no one available until Monday and that there was an additional $150 charge just to tell me what repairs were needed. Bullsh$&. I went to another business. I still have to wait until Monday but I don't have to pay crooks $150 to hook up my truck to the computer just to get the same codes that they get when they tried to do the smog. I will never go to 5

We had our SUV fail. This is a family business and they treated us like family. Fast accurate diagnosis and repair. Skipped lunch to get us on the road again. Great people. Highly recommended.

The people here are super friendly. I walk in and they know my name and ask me how I am doing or how my day is going. I have been here many times and each time the service gets better. If you live in Patterson or near Patterson come here if anything is wrong with your car, they can help.

Best mechanic I ever went to regularly. Very thorough and you need a reliable car out in the Valley. Old school customer service and honest. Drive here like I plan to from Fresno soon and you won't be disappointed or ripped off.

I'm honestly surprised by all the very dramatic and emotional negative reviews. They sound a bit contrived in my humble opinion. Unfortunately people seem to be more outspoken about their negative feelings than when one has had a positive experience. Dealing with cars and mechanical issues is not fun and can bring out the worst in any of us, for sure. It is also hard to find a trustworthy mechanics that you feel isn't trying to get something over on you. I too have felt like I've left a shop with my car having more problems then when I brought it in. That being said, I've taken

What a waste of time and money taking my car there. Honest business?? BS! when it comes to fixing car, i have no clue. So I'm pretty much relying on honest mechanic. They charged me just for diagnosis $140 which take them less then 10 mins to find the problem. Also told me $1,800 to fix it. I took my car to a different place within 5 mins away and for diagnosis was only $70 and to fix it $450.

I would not suggest anyone or my own families to go there, where they over charged big time.

The biggest regrets I ever made! Urgh!
