Took a car to them to have air conditioner fixed. They charged $1400 and it didn't fix the problem. Took it back 6 times to have it fixed and were unwilling to fix it and told m...

Corrupt! Or just bad mechanics 12/29/2011

I was driving home for the holidays when my 2009 Toyota Corolla stopped working on the highway. I got my car towed to the closest AAA certified shop which happened to be Redlands Auto Electric. I got a call the next day saying that my transmission fluid was black and that there was clutch material coming out of the transmission. Transmission needed to be rebuilt. Total repair estimate: $3100.\r \r I was shocked that my 2 year old corolla would need a new transmission. This made me nervous enough that I took it into a trusted Toyota dealership mechanic. They told me that the transmission was fine, no fluid leaking. Instead, I needed a new drive shaft snap ring. Cost: $167. \r \r Two things could have happened. One, they just have lousy mechanics. Or, they were trying to take advantage of a young customer making his way home for the holidays. Either way you are better off staying away from a shop like this. more

Satisfied Customer 11/28/2011

I bought a restored 56 Chevy pickup. Although it looks great on the outside, it needed some work under the hood and in the cab. I gave Redlands Auto Electric a huge list of things to fix and was so happy with how everything turned out. After bringing the truck home, I noticed something wrong with the throttle cable so took it back. Without charging me, they were able to fix it in a couple of hours (I no sooner got home when they gave me a call to pick the truck up). The repair prices are a little pricy (about $90 an hour) but its comforting to have a shop I can trust! I would gladly spend the extra money for peace of mind!!!! I highly recommend this shop! more

I am so glad I found Redlands Auto Electric! 8/17/2011

I have been coming here now for 4 or 5 years, and would not go anywhere else. They have always done very good work for me, and I tell all of my friends about them. They usually get the car done the same day, and at a fair price. more

Quality for the customer 2/17/2011

I have been going to Redlands Auto Electric for over 13 year and love their commitment to their customers. They have always provided me with quality work. What I really love is how they give me multiple choices when it comes to a repair. They don't try to sell me the whole system when it comes to a repair they can often replace a few parts to save me from spending a fortune. \r I would refer them to anyone around the area in need of an honest mechanic. more

Good 'ole shop gone bad!--Sad to see. 11/30/2010

I was a happy customer for 10 years, but things have really changed. Like the others who wrote here about being ripped off, I paid in time and money with countless visits to find this out. \r \r What's my beef with them? They don't test your vehicle before they give you the keys back...you have to be the one to find that the problem isn't fixed or that something they missed is still wrong. They say it's guaranteed, "just bring it back", but each time they find an excuse to blame something on a new problem they didn't see before, and charge you again. \r \r Like what problems? If you have to go there, don't let them do your brakes...also don't pay them to try to get them quiet, they will bill you $180 for "doing the best they can" and invite you to bring it back for "more of that" after you realize that it's exactly as before...noisy, squeaky, etc...That was just the beginning...\r \r Worse problems? OH YES-->Here we go....A/C repaired: Charged me, then a week later, rough engine. Paid more

Excellent Service 11/6/2010

Jim did a marvelous job and was so helpful. He was professional and went beyond the call of duty to help me. When I thought all was lost, and I would be out a re-installation expense of the old mirror, because the new mirror didn't work, he contacted Draper's Auto Glass in Yucaipa. I went there and John took care of the problem and saved the day and extra expense for me.\r \r And to add I called Redlands Auto Electric over any other place and drove the extra 50 miles from Apple Valley, because when I lived in Redlands I went there and my son did too on my advice & we have always got top notch service. \r \r Thanks again to Jim and to Redlands Auto Glass, I would highly recommend Redlands Auto Electric for their professionalism and their expertise. \r \r Thanks again, Redlands Auto Electric\r \r Janet L. more

Redlands Auto Electric is an honest shop 7/29/2009

Honest Shop I had a very good treatment by them. Firestone did a very botched up job with my breaks. Redlands Auto Electric fixed it properly and gave me the parts showing the big circular grooves on the old breaks that were only 2 months old. I went to them on advise of many others that they are very honest. more

great shop!! 4/14/2009

I have taken many cars here for several years, and have compared prices with other shops. They have always been fair and honest. They have also found problems that other shops cannot find. I would recommend them completely! more

DISHONEST MECHANICS 6/12/2008

I have several muscle cars and took them to Redlands Auto for various repairs. I was a new resident of Redlands and was looking for a honest neighborhood auto repair shop that I could trust. On one occasion I brought in a 71 Chevelle that was not running right. They told me it needed a valve job and quoted $1200. They then told me it had major engine problems and offered to buy it at a cheap price. I took the vehicle to Exclusive Auto in Yucaipa and they fixed it for half the price. On another occasion, I took in a 70 Chevy Nova that had electrical problems. They quoted me a very high price and charged a large amount for each part. I went to Autozone and obtained the same parts for approximately 40 percent less. Lastly, I took in a 71 Duster for various repairs. They never fixed the problems,but kept taking my money. My wife kept telling me they were crooks but I did not listen. I wish I would have listened, it would have saved me a lot of money and heartache. Save your money, do not g more
