    I've been using Kobar's for 25 years for all my vehicles' service needs from maintenance to major repairs. We have found them to be nothing but honest and trustworthy. Nothing has changed with a partial change in ownersh

  • Sarah M.

    Gene and John are the most honest mechanics in Gilbert. They told me my car didn't actually need the work the dealer quoted — saved me hundreds. I won't take my car anywhere else.

  • Mike R.

    a year ago

    Three generations of my family have used Kobar's Auto. They've never once steered us wrong. Honest pricing, real expertise, and they treat you like a neighbor.

  • Daniel K.

    Great shop. They walked me through exactly what was wrong, showed me the worn part, and gave me options. No upsell, no pressure. This is how auto shops should operate.

  • Carlos R.

    2 years ago

    Brought in my F-150 with a transmission issue. They diagnosed it accurately, gave a fair quote, and finished a day early. Couldn't ask for more.

  • Patti L.

    2 years ago

    Honest, kind, and fast. My check engine light had been on for months and three other shops couldn't pin it down. Kobar's had it figured out in an afternoon.

  • Jim B.

    3 years ago

    These guys are the real deal. They've been doing my oil changes and brakes for 12 years. I drive past five other shops to get here.

  • Marissa H.

    3 years ago

    My dealer wanted $1,800 for a brake job. Kobar's did the same work — better parts — for $740. They showed me the old pads. Done.

  • Tom S.

    3 years ago

    Took my daughter's car in. They explained everything to her in plain English, no condescension. She drives off feeling confident about her car. That alone is worth it.

  • Greg P.

    4 years ago

    A/C blew out in July in Phoenix. Kobar's got me in the next morning and had cold air by 3pm. Fair price, no nonsense.

  • Angela K.

    4 years ago

    Years of great service. They've kept my old Civic running 240,000 miles strong and counting. ASE certified, family-owned, exactly what you want.

  • Mark D.

    5 years ago

    The honest mechanic shop you hear about but never find. Kobar's lives up to it every single time.

  • Renee W.

    5 years ago

    Lifelong customer. They've serviced four of my cars over the years. Quality work, fair prices, and they remember your name.

  • Frank V.

    6 years ago

    Bought a used truck and brought it here for inspection. They found two things the seller missed and helped me negotiate the price down. Couldn't recommend more.

  • Maria G.

    Best in Gilbert. Period. I've tried others — always come back.
