The Mechanic Who Shows You What's Actually Wrong

Felipe's Automotive is a family-run repair shop in Salinas, where Felipe and his wife handle every customer personally. Before any work starts, Felipe walks you through what's going on with your vehicle and explains it in plain, human language, no jargon, no guesswork.

We charge by the book instead of pulling numbers out of thin air, and when a repair is done, we show you the old parts alongside the new ones so you can see exactly what you paid for. Our goal is always the most cost efficient solution for the problem in front of us, not the most expensive one.

From diagnostics and brake work to air conditioning and suspension repair, we work on everyday drivers and higher end vehicles alike, including European makes like Mercedes Benz. If another shop left a job unfinished or did it wrong, we'll find it, fix it, and set it right.
