Advanced Auto Electric

Amazing man who runs this place. Honest, good, and efficient work. Good family person. I could trust him with prices too. I just immediately knew he was telling the truth.
I have nothing bad to say about this experience and will be coming back here for all mechanical needs.
It is hard to find a good mechanic. I have been screwed over for prices a lot and put a lot of money and work in my car. Im new to the area and I can’t say how glad I am to have found a good mechanic.
We even had a meaningful talk about life for after I picked up my car. I am grateful for my new mechanic.

Great auto repair garage. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. The owner, Charlie, is very helpful and works quickly. I’ll definitely come here again.

Charlie the owner of Advanced Auto Electric is a 1^st class mechanic. He has been my mechanic for the last 15+ years and I go to him for any problem I have with any of my cars (5 series BMW, Toyota Avalon and Toyota Sequoia). I always trust his diagnosis of my cars’ issues, and I always feel that my cars are in good hands knowing that he will be the one working on them himself — not an inexperienced cheap hired labor. Despite his excellent work, he does not charge an arm and a leg. I recommend Charlie to anybody that needs a trustworthy mechanic who is very knowledgeable!

I have done a few car repair jobs with Charlie and happy with the fixes and price tag. I always felt like he gave me a good deal on the fixes and did not promote any unnecessary repairs. The last repair took a lot more time since major rework had to be done. When I told Charlie I just started a new job, he went above and beyond and worked extra hours in the evening just so I could get the car a day sooner.

The service here is quick, efficient, and very helpful. The parts changed are shown and the work done is transparent. The hospitality and quality of service that the I received as an individual goes a long way in making me feel comfortable with this mechanic shop. I have move further north and still continue to return to Charlie’s shop. I highly recommend this service to others.

Charlie is truly as good as it gets. He is one of the few honest and terrific mechanics.
There is nothing he can’t fix and he does it at a reasonable cost. He will show you the parts he has removed and the new part he puts in.
He also does warranty work. This was something I thought I had to do at the dealer. Not anymore, Charlie gets it all.
You will not be disappointed having him work on your automobile!

Need a phenomenal and affordable mechanic?
Charles has impeccable integrity in addition to being a most capable and hones mechanic — can do anything!
Have known for five years. he’s solved out-​of-​the-​norm problems on several cars — quick turnaround — no gouging — insisted on showing broken parts. Most dramatic example was first meeting — after talking with mechanic who demanded $ 3K for work, found out Charles did his electrical work. Charles finished job next day for 285..

I have been taking my cars (Nissan, Mitsubishi, BMW) to Charlie for about 10 years. He is not only a good mechanic, but also a great guy. He is always honest about the work that needs to be done and also the cost. He strives to lower the labor cost. For example, if he notices a part that would soon need replacement and he is either working in that area or has removed that part in connection with some other job, then he does not charge additional labor for putting on the new part. That alone has saved me several hundreds.
I have recommended Charlie to several of my friends and they have all had very positive experience and are his repeat customers now.
It is my pleasure to wholeheartedly recommend him to the Unilocal community for future auto repair work. You will not be disappointed.

More props to Advanced Auto Electric!
Charlie is honest and straight forward about every aspect of your car. His prices are more then fair given the attention and quality he devotes every time I bring in my vehicle.
I have had a mess of mechanics that pale in comparison. Charlie is extremely knowledgeable and is great at what he dose. It shows that he really enjoys his work.
I give Charlie 5 stars and am as thrilled as one can be with their mechanic.
Give him a try!

Who doesn’t need a trustworthy auto mechanic? Me! I’ve already found mine at Advanced Auto Electric (AAE).
I found AAE many years ago in a Yahoo search for an auto electrical specialist near my home. Don’t let the business name fool you. Charlie, the owner and only employee of the business, is capable of ANY repair work whether it has anything to do with the electrical system or not. I take my four vehicles to him for everything but tires. (He doesn’t do tires.)
I’ve been keeping an Excel spreadsheet on my auto repairs for 8 years. As of this writing, I’ve been to Charlie 28 times since 2000.
Because the same guy always works on the car, the quality is consistent and predictable. He doesn’t «create» problems to make sales quotas or keep a workforce busy. His small shop is always full of cars — he seems to have all the work he can handle. I’ve grown to trust him completely. Charlie will SHOW me exactly what he found and will take time to answer my questions until I understand.
AAE has a very fair hourly labor rate that is well below dealer rates. One look at Charlie’s modest shop will assure you that you aren’t paying for big overhead. After you’ve done a few repairs with him, you’ll realize that he’s on your side and is an honest and honorable man. Your repair will be done right at a fair price.
