I found John when I first moved to SLO after a few visits to other mechanic shops whose business plan is to charge every customer as much as possible with the most profitable repair whether needed or not. John is the polar opposite of that. John is truly a good guy wanting to help get you back up and running the best possible way for you. I am confident Reeves will fix only the issue that I need, no upsell. The funny thing the others don’t realize is that by doing that he has a customer base that is loyal. Honesty and integrity is not just a slogan it's their underlying business principle. So if you are a student on a limited budget and don't want to worry about being over charged or if you are a long time resident that has experienced those other shops and have been looking for a fair, super qualified mechanic shop look no further.

The condition of your transmission fluid can tell you a lot about the condition of the transmission itself. At Reeves Auto Repair in San Luis Obispo, CA, we want to help you be aware of what to look for and what we look for when servicing your transmission.
