Reviews for Dana Point Foreign Car Service

Great experience for 12 years! If it isn't broken they don't fix it. My car repairs have been done at a fraction of the estimates by others. I continue to refer friends and acquaintances and we are never disappointed. I recall one situation where I was in the desert and I was advised I needed a repair to my power steering unit as it was leaking at a cost of $780.00. I reached Tom and he stated how far are you and he waited for two (2) hours until I arrived in Dana Point. The repair was $39.00. This is just one of many occurrence over the years. Thank you Tom and your employees for your expertise in automotive repairs and for your outstanding integrity and honesty.

Good old fashioned professional service & workmanship. I don't think you can ask for more.

Dana Point Auto Repair service is the absolute best. I had my car towed to their shop in the middle of the night. I called in the morning informing them my car was there and needed fixed as soon as possible. I do not live in California and only picked them because of their high Google rating. They did not disappoint. They went above and beyond to get my car fixed that day and checked in with me multiple times to let me know the progress. I can not recommend them enough. Thank you guys!

I live out of town/state and needed to get a car inspected for a cross country purchase. Tom and Derek accepted the job, took a look at the car, performed an in-depth inspection and charged me a very reasonable rate for the inspection. I was impressed by the knowledge and scope of detail that Derek used to assess the car. I wish I had a local shop like DPFCS in my town. I'd be a long-time customer. SD - Austin, Texas.

I hand my keys to Tom and his team and say "check things over and do what needs to be done." I love the personal, small town feel about the shop. My 7 yr old Infiniti still runs like a new car!

I recently bought a late 90's Mercedes S420 only to have the transmission fail. I contacted several well known Southern California transmission shops and they tried to talk me into a rebuilt transmission with the same inherent defects that caused my problem in the first place, or a new transmission from Mercedes at a prohibitive cost. Tom at Dana Point Foreign Service knew exactly what was needed to make the repair and he promptly repaired the car at a fraction of the estimates I received above. This is the second time I have used Dana Point Foreign Car on difficult repairs and I have been really pleased with his work. I know my way under the hood of these cars and the quality of Tom's work is both first rate and affordable. What I like most is that Tom is low key, thoughtful and very knowledgeable of his trade. I recommend him highly for any repair --simple or complex.

My 1976 Porsche is my baby. I have had it since the eighties. We are the second owners...First owner was in our family too, so you see, it is part of the family.. Recently, it was idling very high whenever I was stopped. My mechanic told me to be repaired it needed this part that is impossible to find. He would try, but he eventually had no luck...My husband and I searched the internet for this part and could not find it. I decided to call a friend of mine who is a precision machinist. He told me before I do anything else, call Tom at Dana Point Foreign Car. I brought the car to them and Tom immediately took a look at it. He showed me what was causing the problem...IT WAS NOT EVEN THE PART WE WERE SEARCHING FOR!!! I knew immediately that my friend did me the biggest favor ever by recommending this place to us!!! I left the car and told Tom whatever you see it needs, just fix it. That is how much I trusted him just from meeting him. I just drove my baby for the first time since getting it back. It is unbelievable!!! It drives so awesome!!! The car wants to GO!!!! They were also very reasonable! We will ONLY take our Porsche to Dana Point Foreign Car!!! THANKS TOM!!!!!

When my BMW was going out of warranty, I started researching the best place to have both my cars serviced. Tom and Dana Point Foreign Car Service was one most often mentioned as being the most honest and best. I am now a believer. Tom has repeatedly proved that he is trustworthy and his service expertise is better than any high priced dealership. I highly recommend Tom and his excellent Team to take care of your car.
