German Motors & Imports

The people at German Motors & Imports are nice, knowledgeable and friendly. Just took my car in for repair and they gave me a very fair quote on the work, highly recommend them.

Very fair and honest. I took my 2009 X5 in after experiencing some brief overheating episodes. They test drove it and the car did not throw a code.

Dan was fully transparent and told me “I can’t tell you what it is, and I’m not going to waste your time or money trying to fix it until I know for sure that we can fix it.” I was originally quoted for $140 for that, but he ended up charging me $0. Most mechanics would not do this.

Next week, the issue happened again so I took it back in. This time it did throw a code, faulty water pump and thermostat, and Dan quoted me at $1725 for parts and labor. They had the car back to me in less than 5 days and the bill was $1715, right where he said it would be.

Definitely recommend coming here because they won’t over charge you or try to rip you off, the service they do is quick and effective and they stand by their quotes.

I called German Motors and Imports and explained that a rodent had chewed through my wiper fluid supply hose and god knows what else and that I was concerned about heading out on the road without an inspection. Dan told me that they were busy but that I also should just bring it for a look. In an hour, they had diagnosed the problem and found that the rodent had also chewed through a wire that controls the heater. Both were repaired w/o having to order expensive OEM parts (my choice) and for less than $150. Great service and I will 100% be back for my next scheduled service. Thanks Dan and team!

I brought my 2015 Diesel Mercedes GLK into the shop when I needed a new alternator. The repair was finished in a day and at a very fair price. I'm new to the area so I'm thrilled to find of a shop that is local and professional.

These folks are ROCK STARS

I drive a Porsche Cayenne, not because I am interested in economic transportation. I drive a Porsche Cayenne because I’m a busy professional with a young family and I get 25 minutes at the beginning and end of each day that are just for me, and by golly, I’m going to make them count!

That’s why I am such a fan of German Motors and Imports. #TherapyDriving while spiritually fulfilling does require regular maintenance done by professionals who UNDERSTAND German sports cars and who LOVE German sports cars.

Brenda and her team offer this type of expert, interested and personalized services. These cars can be moody, no doubt, and some parts can only be ordered from Germany. The team understand the ins and outs of Porsche repair that bring me peace of mind. Their suggestions are always on point.

Throughout every service Brenda and her team provide regular updates by text and phone call. I was even in a pinch once a couple counties away and they arranged for a tow back to San Diego. You cannot beat that level of engagement and interest.

As a North PB resident, the location is ideal and services are always completed in as timely a manner as possible.

A high end sports car can be a rocky relationship, think of the folks at German Motors and Imports as your relationship counselors.

I’ll be using these folks forever. Happy driving everyone!
