Services
Walker's Automotive is a family owned business established in Modesto in 1977. We have been serving customers here in Modesto and the surrounding area for the past 40 years. Originally, Modesto Independent Imports we started with a two bay shop and two employees, and in 1990 we moved our business to our current location on 14th Street near Modesto D.M.V.
When you turn on your A/C and no cold air or barely any cold air comes out, your vehicle is probably low on refrigerant. But there is more to Auto AC Repair than just adding refrigerant. The refrigerant operates in a closed system, and the most likely cause for low levels will be a leak in the air-conditioning system.
As strong as our brake seem to be, manufacturers do not intend for the brakes to last for the entire life of the vehicle. All vehicles driven long enough will eventually need brake repair. For instance, if you commute 30 miles each direction all on the freeway. You are doing little braking so your brakes will most likely last longer.
The check engine light is part of the on board diagnostics or OBD-II system and every problem it detects basically means something is wrong with the emissions system. You may ask why the check engine light diagnostic computer only monitor your emissions system? Well first, it's better for the environment to have every car running cleaner, so every car has a computer for that purpose.
The Fluid is the reason your transmission and other, under the hood, parts stay cool and lubricated. The job of the transmission is to transfer power from the engine to the wheels of the car. If you have an automatic vehicle the transmission will shift the car into different gear depending on the speed that you are driving.

I brought my Subaru Crosstrek here twice in one month. Once for a major service, brakes, transmission, all fluids, etc. And then I brought it back for an oil leak that was a fairly large job. Both times the repairs were finished on time and also done at a fair price. Luis was knowledgeable and kept me updated. The car runs great and I will definitely be bringing my cars here in the future for service and repairs.

My wife and I first went to Walkers Automotive probably 20 years ago. I took my granddaughters car there recently and received the same excellent service we always have. They do quality work and I have confidence in what they tell me needs to be done. I wouldn't take my vehicle anywhere else.

We thought we had a battery issue so they tested it and the entire charging system, seems that we might have left something on. We had a door lock switch not working so they replaced it. We also had an electronic brake controller for our trailer that went out and they replaced that. They do good work, and are very helpful and they communicate with you on what they find before they repair or replace anything.

First time i have used this shop. My first call was very professional and scheduling was very easy and pleasant. Drop off, while busy, went smoothly as well. They called promptly after diagnosing the issue and gave me a fair estimate that I approved. Car was done 2 hours before their stated time. Pick up again went really well. Will definitely use Walker Automotive again.

I couldn't be more pleased with the service I received at walker. I've taken both my cars here for oil services and recently had one of cars towed there for major service. I had a lot of questions about my car not working properly and they totally went above and beyond to find out what was wrong keeping it extra days to make sure the problem had been resolved. Every single person I've dealt with has been super friendly. Definitely found my shop. After I also received a thank you card from them with a coffee gift card! Who even does that anymore?! They genuinely appreciate their customers

Wow! They got my van fixed and running better then ever this is what good customer service is all about. After dealing with electrical issues and having other electrical automotive places in town look for the glitch these guys found the problem and had my van running like a champ in less then a week. I know you guys do good work because I've towed many cars to your shop throughout the years and you always return them running like new! You guys are awesome thank you for fixing my old Honda van! I'll see you guys when my van decides it's time

I went in to get an oil change since I needed one. I found them on Yelp. I got the discount. Upon arriving I was greeted and walked inside. Staff are very nice and polite. I didn't have any issues. I asked how long it would be, approximately one hour. I sat in the waiting area, about 45 minutes late my car was done. Easy and simple. I didn't get talked to about any extra work my car 'needs'. Will be visiting them again. Thank you!

I took my car in because the ac had stopped working and I was hoping against hope it just needed a recharge. They said it would take 45 mins to diagnose since I had an appointment but it took about double that. Then they tell me the ac compressor is broken and it will take $1350 to fix it. I decided to take it to my regular mechanic in Turlock instead- Rogers Auto. Roger confirmed it was the compressor and fixed it for $810. That's a huge difference. Walkers contacted me twice asking for a review so here it is. Clearly theyre very expensive and using the extra revenue to pay for marketing

Louis, took the time to answer all my questions in person and over numerous phone calls. Helped me to make decisions that were best for my car and for me financially. The staff was very professional and I am very glad I chose Walker's to fix my car. I definatley recommend and will be using them in the future.

Recommended by AAA, we tried Walker's and canceled an appointment with our regularly used repair shop of 30 years. I was overly impressed by the friendliness of each person I interacted with. I was not accustomed to kindness for an auto repair facility. No pressure was applied with recommended services and they even had shuttle service. I had to remind them of the AAA discount, which was my purpose for choosing them, but other than that it was a great experience and our vehicle is running again.
I would recommend them and also return myself.

Aaron Walker is either a liar or a crook. Have an 06 Mercedes w203 chassis with the m272 motor, has the common issue with the sprocket on the camshaft failed due to Mercedes not using hardened metal on it and I called and spoke to him to get a ballpark estimate on repairs. Told him the OBDII codes I pulled and that I'd already taken the sensors out and lined up the flywheel to verify its out of timing and its definitely that issue. After him looking on his computer a bit he said it'd be roughly $1500 parts + $1500 labor but they'd have to take a look at it to get an exact estimate
