I got a U-Haul trailer here. The staff was very nice and it was an easy transaction! In and out. Returning was a breeze as well!

I absolutely love the people at Erickson Automotive. They are local, take good care of their customers and don’t add a bunch of bogus car fees. They’re honest about your cars issues and always work their hardest to make sure that your car is back on the road safe and sound.

Had a reservation and had a confirmation email and text. When we got there they said they had no trucks and she couldn't do anything because "corporate" handles everything. Rent your trucks somewhere else.

I’ve been taking my 2001 Tacoma here for years and it has always been a good experience. You don’t take your car into a mechanic because everything is running great and your bank account usually isn’t the happiest about it but they’ve always given me a fair price and their work has been nothing short of excellent. Highly recommend.

My car was experiencing a very heavy vibration, to the point where it was almost not drivable. I brought my car into Erickson auto, within 45 minutes they diagnosed my problem, which was a broken U joint. They called me quickly and explain what the issue was, gave me a quote, and within two hours my car was running perfectly. When I picked up my car, I was shown the parts that were replaced, and was given an explanation on why they needed to be replaced. A+ service. Thanks boys!

Just picked up my truck after some steering repairs. This is the second time I've used these fellows and I need to say they have impressed me both times. I feel like they are honest/hardworking capable young men. I'm very happy to have them available to take care of my new toy.
Keep up the good work guys!!!

I can always trust the guys at Erickson with my vehicles. They've worked on my 7.3 L diesel and my hybrid vehicles. Never tried tried to upsell me and their pricing is always fair.

Took my 2012 Audi Q5 in for a water pump replacement and they went above & beyond. They took pictures of the carbon buildup on my direct injection valves, clean them and the car is never run better!

The nearest qualified Audi mechanic is in Santa Maria or Santa Barbara but this is your go-to place in San Luis Obispo. Comforting to find mechanics I can trust.

Colter and the people are great. They were able to diagnose and fix my car while keeping me in the loop about everything. In my opinion I feel that I paid a great price for a great job done. Great job guys!!

Ananda and Colton know there stuff. I needed the axle seal replaced on my Lexus 470. They were able to diagnose the problem and squeeze me in on a Friday, so I could get out of town the weekend. They are reasonably priced and have lot's of relevant knowledge. I would recommend the shop.

Long overdue review for me. I've been a customer with Erickson for the past 5 years. Whatever the car, whatever the problem, these guys have been there for me at every turn. Whenever I come in, they are personable, reliable and timely to get you in and out without huge delay. Most important however...they are trustworthy. With a profession with such a horrible reputation for swindlers and cheats, Erickson is the beacon of hope you have been searching for. Take your car to Erickson. You will not regret it.

Friendly, competent and fair. When my auto was coughing, I pulled right in and got immediate service. Unassuming owner who treats me like a friend.

The shop is super friendly. The owner is very hands-on.

They are super straightforward and trustworthy = they won't upsell you things you don't need or scare you into additional services.

They also work hard to provide the service when you need it, not just when they have time.

I recommend them to friends or acquaintances all the time.

Always have done great work on all my vehicles, from Toyota Tercel to Dodge Diesel. These are my Go to Guys. Will keep going here as long as I am in town.
