Stockton Auto Repair

Staff was very friendly and helpful. I had them do a full inspection on my car. They found a few things that needed attention. They fixed a vibration/shaking of the vehicle which resulted in a high-priced repair of removing & replacing suspension control arm. They also removed and replaced spark plugs, remove and replace battery, and replaced breaks front and back. The prices were high although I didn't have time to compare other auto repair garages because I was leaving out of town two days later. I'm so glad I had it checked and feel safe in my car because of their dedication to the repairs. They also gave me a ride home which was really nice! I would recommend them.

These guys go above and beyond.. Took our 2004 Dodge ram 1500 5.7 l for an engine diagnostic. Performed a long block replacement, front and rear suspension , replace all four tires and repair an EVAP issue.. got it smogged. the truck is a ticket magnet now, absolute beast.. highly recommend this shop.. the staff knows their stuff, very professional no runarounds, straight to the point and no bs. Very pleased with the work performed . highly recommend... They work on all our vehicles.

From the very beginning Toole's Garage treated me like family. They were very thorough and treated me with fairness and respect. I have never been to any other shop that could even compare to Toole's Garage. I just wish I could take them with me to Montana! Love u guys. Know that I will be back if any of my vehicles need repairs.

The people at this shop knows what there doing. Had a excellent experience. They got my car to pass emissions after a year of trying

Avoid this expensive unprofessional mechanic shop! Based on my professional experience as a heavy duty mechanic, I cannot recommend Toole Garage. Their work on my Land Rover Defender—a costly fuel pump installation—was revealed to be dangerously substandard by another mechanic. The fuel lines were loosely secured, demonstrating a negligent disregard for basic safety protocols. The significant expense of their service is not reflected in the quality, which is profoundly unreliable. This discovery led me to cancel further scheduled work on another vehicle Hummer H1. Rafael has dual personality one which is extremely nice the day u first come and second is opposite of all that because now ur stuck with them, i told him how unprofessional the job was he wasn’t even sorry once about it!

Extremely professional and helpfull They were able to fix up my absolutely trashed car, and at a price that was far more affordable than anyone in the Valley Will be utilizing them in the future and I live over an hour away

Probably would never bring any of my cars here again. Brought my truck in for a diagnosis and quote to repair. The timing chain needed replacing which is a big job for this truck as the engine has to be removed. Finally got the estimate from Tooles and was quoted a ridiculous amount of money. $199 an hour plus over $2,000 in parts. This is a 2005 Ford, the parts are readily available from many different suppliers. I couldn’t understand why they would charge me 25% more for parts than if I bought directly from Ford themselves. It became very obvious after speaking to them on the phone that they just didn’t want this job. Took my truck for A Care Auto Repair and was quoted $1500 less. They actually want the work. If you don’t want the job then just be transparent about it. Don’t send me an estimate that makes no sense. For example, a $38 oil filter. What? Just tell me you don’t want the job. It was really a waste of $199 diagnostic fee because they didn’t tell me anything I didn’t already know, just wasted my time with that inflated estimate which took nearly 2 days to receive.

I had a very positive experience at Toole's Garage. Rafael was exceptionally welcoming, friendly, and informative. It was almost fate that I experienced a car issue right in front of their establishment. In short, the overall experience was excellent. The only aspect that could be improved was the pricing, as I felt it was slightly high. Specifically, the test and analysis cost $200, which seemed a bit excessive. I believe that a price of $200 would be fair if we had decided against having the car serviced at that location. However, considering I did choose to have the service performed there, and the total cost amounted to $800.00 (for a rather easy fix), I feel the $200 should've been waived. This is how the other mechanic shops do business, in my past experience. However, their customer service is truly outstanding. After resolving the initial problem with my car, they identified another issue that requires attention. I do intend to return to them to address this additional concern.

Update (9/15/2025): Since my first visit, I have returned to Toole's Garage twice more, and Rafael & Doc have consistently provided excellent service. The second visit was to address a pulsation damper leak, and the third was to repair my AC system. They are truly genuine and honest guys, and they have certainly earned my trust. I am very pleased to have discovered such a fantastic auto shop in central Stockton. The prices for the last two visits were also pretty reasonable. These gentlemen are wonderful!

Service done right. Explanation of all services rendered, often with photos. OEM parts when requested. Friendly and competent service.
