Testimonials

  • Great service and fair prices! I did a diagnostic in my Jeep and I got a detailed feedback of all codes and the necessary work the car would need. They asked authorization to do the work beforehand with the estimated price. I was comfortable with the work, very satisfied with the work and the people are amazing!

  • I’ve tried other local mechanics, giving them a fair shake with repeat business and this is the Best auto shop in Ramona by FAR. They are thorough, know what they’re doing, fairly priced, fast, and easy to get ahold of, very impressed and would highly recommend.

  • Thoroughbred Motors is awesome! I was purchasing a vehicle located near their shop and they got me scheduled for a pre-purchase inspection. They gave me a very detailed inspection quote. I felt like I was well taken care of and they were very transparent with everything. I highly recommend this shop!
