Master Imports Force Auto

Love this shop been coming here for years and will continue for years to come.

David is a very honest man. I went to Firestone to do a check up on the ac and they wanted to charge 800 dollars to change the condenser and the filter. I went to David and he said that there was something strange on the notes. He checked my car and it only needed to do an ac service and it works wonderfully. Plus I saved 600 dollars! Thanks David !

I believe in supporting local business. These guys are around the corner from my work and I went in for an oil change. Super simple job. I already knew I needed brakes and rotors and had plan to take my car to a Porsche specialist. Am happy to to have trust them. They were able to deal with wheel locks on my custom wheels that didn’t come off. They did the brakes, rotors and oil change all within a budget I had set. Can’t thank them enough.

I have a 2008 BMW M-​6. I bought it new and it is now out of warranty.
My left side turn signal light went out, the one along the side of the car. I went to SM BMW to have it fixed. I could not believe it when they told me it would cost $ 210 and needed to make an appointment.
I called David at Master’s imports and he said he could take of it. It took his guy around 20 minutes to fix it. I owe David a box of cigars since he do not charge me.

My friend referred me to Master Imports Force Auto a few years back and I’ve never looked back. I have a Honda Civic Si and I wouldn’t trust it with anyone else! David and Alphonso are patient with all of my questions and explain it in a way that I understand. They even show me the parts they replaced, unlike some other mechanics that have done a botched duct tape job and said it was «fixed.» They are worth every penny!

I’ve taken my cars to Master Imports Force Auto for over five years, three different cars, mazda Rx-​8, Honda accord, and my current Buick. Dave and his mechanics are always ready to help, and they always break down the work they do so I know exactly what I’m paying for. I’m always 100% satisfied with the work they do. My most recent visit to them, I came in with noises from braking, upon inspection of the brake system inspection, Dave showed me what was going on (pads worn out, rotors runnin thin), and he then explained to me my option’s. I ended up replacing my rotors and brake pads, and the noise is gone. Brakes are quite, and the car stops perfectly. Great shop, the only team I trust with my cars, you can bet I’ll continue to bring all my future cars here as well.

I Came foe service for the first time. David was recommended by friend.
I was so impressed by a clean shop and the mechanics professions and most of all the timing was accurate.
The price was fair and affordable
I would recommend David’s shop to anyone.
Last week I have a problem with my car and I go back to david and I was so impress from the friendly professional service !
T you david

Just took my car in to see David and, as always, am very pleased with his service. He has a friendly, knowledgeable assistant as well. Overall great experience!

very bad people !
be carefull !!!

Been taking my cars to Master imports for many years.
from my muscle cars through my Jeeps to high end cars like my Porsche and BMW
and my parents Mercedes.
the shop is always clean and usually you should make an appointment since Master imports is usually pretty busy.
they are not the cheapest in the market but you will get what you suppose to get.
David is very meticulous and probably the best mechanic for your German car !
when the job is done they always show me the parts replaced and with my experience as a car enthusiast this is one of the only places that you really get the right service for your car!
if you really like/​love your car and want to diagnose and repair it right the first time you should give Master import a call.

WE had a car stolen. When we called him, he said «Don’t worry, I’ll sort it out».
What a mistake!
He started doing a ton of work that we didn’t ask for. Ultimately all he did was some simple electrical work, and get a damaged lock working. Parts were $ 60, and labor was… $ 600!!!
For what???
Well, we had the mechanic that now does our work check it out. He reckoned it was about 1 hour of labor, 2 at the most.
DO NOT TRUST THIS GUY! It’s interesting that when a woman approaches him, his attitude is VERY different to when a man does. He assumes that women are gullible fools who will pay through the nose. If you insist on using him, get a male to go to handle his chauvinist nonsense.
A real piece of work.
If you DO have a jeep and want a great mechanic, look up el medico de Jeep. Great prices, great attitude.
Edit… he’s now harassing me to change my post. Wonderful. Gotta love this guy.

I was most impressed with this shop’s quick service and low-​price for fixing an electrical problem in my Camry. I am sold on Master Imports Force Auto and will be returning with other automotive problems as they arise. Sam Z.

This guy does good work, but he’s super expensive. I had him install a rear bumper and tire carrier on my jeep and a CB radio. Every website online that I could find said the rear bumper and tire carrier instalation would take 2 – 3 hours, and his shop rate was $ 95/​hr. So I was expecting $ 250… he charged me $ 500. A total rip off. When I complained he made up a story about there being a problem with the lock– which in the end there wasn’t. For the CB, I was told 45 minutes to an 1 hour. He charged me $ 180.
Tips: If you absolutely are going to this guy, don’t let his kindness fool you — he’s super nice. Get a quote and hold him to it.
Other than the price, he does good work and it’s hard to find a good mechanic. I would have given him more stars, but I hate the feeling of being ripped-​off.
