Parras Auto Repair - Oxnard (CA)

5 /5 Gretchen Geronilla: I cant say enough about the owner, Carlos, who accommodated us on an emergency, after we had a road break down, when it was very close to closing time. He took our rental on the road with my husband and determined that there was nothing to fix at that point. He also explained that the service light (a minor issue) should be taken to the rental office to address. Very nice man. Very knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend him and his service center.

5 /5 Mandi M: I recently went to get my car serviced and was hesitant at first due to the bad reviews but I took my chances and went ahead with service. The owner was really polite and answered every single question I had. He kept in contact with me and my car was ready within hours. My mind is at the ease knowing my problem was fixed and done in a professional manner. I would recommend to friends and come back again.

1 /5 Isaac Bleach: This shop is truly a nightmare, I am active duty military and dealt with an issue with my vehicle no crank no start. I was heading home the next day Cris the owner tells me I can have you out quick my friend. So I take my vehicle and no luck tells me the part is out of stock and he will take care of it with three days. I was forced to leave the vehicle and trust in the good of people. I drove home to El Paso Texas 13 hours away and my vehicle sat at this shop for 6 months and continued to tell me the same story he’s working on it and he’s trying hard to figure out the issue. I go home on pre deployment leave and to see my wife graduate college, to see my car still not able to start and the wires on my steering column are completely unraveled and spliced. I confronted him about this issue and said his electrical guy is working on it and it will be resolved. I was thankfully able to get my vehicle home after months later and a deployment later my vehicle is same issue I am stuck no start and took to a new shop and showed me the terrible work and loose wires on my steering column. STY AWAY FROM THESE UNLICENSED MECHANICS.

1 /5 12richard26: This company has the tendency of scamming elderly people. They have had my in laws car for a month and a half for a catalytic converter and one other problem that shouldn’t have taken more than two weeks. They also charged over $2000. We called them and they said they were driving the car around which makes me feel like they were just using it as a shop car. They ignore calls and refuse to give the car back. Also over the last few years the car keeps having to be taken back because they suck at their job. Just take the car to Dobs by the OTC they are actually good mechanics.

5 /5 Matthew Melo: Cant recommend this mechanic enough, my brother who is a new driver made a small mishap on the road, leaving our car with an awful grinding sound in the back wheels. We drove to the closest mechanic which was Parras and even though he was in the middle of something, the owner himself came immediately and within 15 minutes diagnosed the problem and had us back on the road, with some good advice as well.
