Almaden Automotive in San Jose

Called about replacing my serpentine alternator belt quote they were able to get my car in the afternoon. Completely upfront with the price and work before going in. Did not try to upsell me anything. Everything done in under an hour. Solid auto shop. Will return for oil changed and future work.

Tired of paying dealership prices for simple maintenance and repair? Almaden Automotive is the place to go go. Reasonable prices, excellent service, professional, accommodating schedule and helpful in every way. This is a real gem in Almaden Valley.

I've been a patron of Almaden Automotive since the mid 80's and, whether it was a domestic or foreign car, I've always been able to rely on them to do the job right. That's why I don't go anywhere else. John, the owner, has never let me down. In a time when it can be a challenge to find an honest mechanic, John is a shining star. It's a small shop, so you know that you can always get the personal attention that makes you feel like you're their favorite customer. The three elements that I feel are necessary for an excellent shop are honesty, quality work and fair pricing. Almaden Automotive gets 5 stars on all three. BTW, I clicked on 5 stars, but when I checked, it only showed 4.7. That's wrong. This is a 5 star shop.

I’m a new customer. A friend recommended Almaden Automotive to me. Service, knowledge and skill are excellent. I will become a regular customer.

Our family has been customers for 40+ years! Accommodating, rapid service, and very friendly staff :)

fast and great service! I brought in my own splash shield and they kindly installed it for me for free.

Amazing Customer Service, turn around and great pricing. John said drop the vehicle off on Wednesday night after hours since I couldn't do it during work hours, by Friday afternoon it was ready to go, in 1 day they had my truck radiator replaced and running fantastic. I can't express my gratitude and appreciation of the professionalism and service his entire team provided. Thank you very much John and Almaden Automotive!!!!!! :-). G.I.G. If you have any automotive needs contact JOHN and ALMADEN AUTOMOTIVE!!!!

Highly recommend! All I needed was my crush washer switched out. They had me come in right away and I was done working a few minutes. They gave me some cool insider tips on mess-free oil changes! Great people
