I had taken my Rav4 here previously for work and the work seems fine but there was always an upsell at every visit so I got tired of the pressure and quit going. Today, I needed a simple oil change and they are close so I decided to take the Rav for a quick service. Dropped it off just after opening and went to do run some errands. About an hour later I get a call from a tech saying my car was done but there were several other routine services due and an oil leak coming from the valve cover. I asked for an estimate on replacing the valve cover gasket. He said $100 labor plus parts and that it should take about an hour and half which would be about 11 am. I figured the gasket would cost about $25 so I said do the valve cover but not the other services he mentioned since they were done earlier at another shop. I called about 11 and they said it wouldnt be done until 1 which was slightly frustrating. I called about 130 and my car was done. I went to the front desk to pay. Nobody was at the counter for several minutes. The owner came in and handed a key to another customer that was waiting and basically ignored me an walked back out. A younger man came in a few minutes later and wrote up the ticket which ended up being $206. I asked the price of the valve gasket replacement and he said $163, $100 labor and $63 for the gasket. I mentioned that the price for a gasket seemed pretty steep and he said there was a delivery charge for the part. I just looked at him, paid, and left. I googled the cost for a valve gasket and you can purchase them for around $20. And their $20 oil change they advertise ended up costing almost $40 so go figure. I wont be going back.

Got a smog here.. They failed my car visually, "free re smog" tried to schedule a re smog after getting a new catalytic for a wayyyy cheaper price than they originally quoted me for 380.00, i got it done for 200.00 brand new! , anyways, i tried to schedule a re smog, kept calling these guys, theyre never available to schedule me due to theyre too busy! So i ended up getting a re smog elsewhere because my 30 day re smog was up..... Sketchy guys always just looking for profit... Do not go here. They quoted me 250 for a new belt job on my car.. They belts cost 20.00 at autozone.. 230.00 for labor? U serious? I did the job in 15 mins... So yeah

I took in my 04 Lincoln Navigator with air suspension problems. Even though things got a little complicated for a minute, Johnny stepped up and came through with a great solution to the problem. I am back riding high and very satisfied with Sornoso Auto Repair.

A GREAT place! I drove all the way from Pasadena to come here. I was referred to them from a friend, and the drive was well worth the great service I received. Great quick service with an honest, friendly mechanic.
