Justin & his Team Rock !!
Justin was great. I didn't talk to anyone else but they did my car after a last minute scared that kept me in the city for a couple of days. Good price, for the service is great. They care for your car, they even helped me find the tow truck. 🤌🏽🤌🏽🔥

excellent service
Towed in my car for an emergency when my clutch gave out and Justin was extremely personable and friendly, clearly explaining what he would do and how much everything would cost every step of the way. Highly recommend to anyone, seems like a trustworthy place.

great guys, great service
These guys are always there when I need them; I've taken my parents VW, my daughters VW, and my VW there for service. They are kind, explain what is needed, and always make me feel taken care of. I use them for both emergency and general service and they are top notch.

Oil change Alfa
Mike was very professional and I was confident I could trust him to do a good job. It’s not easy in SF to find a shop that can do a simple oil change on a 1973 Alfa Romeo.

I will revisit Crowder for future work.

BMW valve cover and gasket
Justin and his team did an excellent job on my car. I brought my BMW wagon in for a valve cover and gasket replacement. I was quoted a very fair price and the work was done probably better than any dealership. I highly recommend their shop.

Saved my 1988 Mazda
A tricky problem to sort, with only used parts to work with, Justin and the team had my old truck back and running. Could not be happier with their service and commitment to finding parts for a 1988 truck.

My go shop for all my car repairs
I recently needed my repairs on my automobile. Mike and Justin were very helpful and fixed my car promptly.
I have been taking my car there for over 15 years and they have always been fair priced and did excellent work.

Best Garage in San Francisco!
Immediate appointment, honest input about my elderly car, honest recommendations for service needs, clear explanations of what is going on, a shared commitment to keeping her running for a few hundred thousand more miles, came in under cost expectations, and just the friendliest people ever. I trust them implicitly, and isn’t that the gold standard of mechanics?

Check engine light
I got superb service when I brought my old Mercedes in with a check engine light. They have the tools and experience to diagnose and solve the problem at a fair price.
They also cleaned my car inside and outside.
