TESTIMONIALS

Always a pleasure to deal with. My brother owns a shop and he frequently refers customers to them. The prices are always fair, they are honest and always do the work quickly and correctly. I work down the street from them and we often bring out vehicles to them. It's a great family run business and all three of the guys who run the place are top notch.

YELP REVIEW

I have been taking my car to this place for few years, they never disappointed me. They are very reliable, trustworthy and fairly priced. I Highly recommend their service

SARAH H

YELP REVIEW

I suspected that I had a blown fuse since one of my headlights was constantly out. I called up my dealership to see what it would cost to fix, and it was going to cost $160 JUST to have it looked at! So I called up Pinky's. They looked at my car, same day, and replaced the fuse FOR FREE. Whole thing took 20 mins. Customer for life right here!!!

2. Can I keep my damaged parts?

At the discretion of the company, all damaged parts are either picked up by our salvage dealer or disposed of by the repair facility. This eliminates the hassle for you to dispose of parts which need to be recycled. Most parts don't go into the trash and are disposed of according to the most current California State Vehicle Codes. You are more than welcome to see the parts that have been replaced though, just ask!

3. Do I need an appointment for an estimate?

No. Drive in your vehicle or have it towed to our facility. Never drive a vehicle that could be unsafe due to damages though. We will gladly help arrange for your car or truck to be picked up from your house or impound lot and brought to Pinky's Automotive. We will perform as estimate as timely as we can.

4. How long will it take to get a completed estimate?

Typically a thorough estimate can be performed in on the spot. Some minor repairs can be estimated the same day. Depending on the time you visit we may take up to 30 minutes to provide you a detailed estimate depending on the issues.

5. What information do I need?

Insurance company name, customer contact information with phone number, and a claim number is all we need to ensure a smooth and fast repair process.

6. Do you charge for estimates?

If we perform the work to fix your motorcycle, the estimate is free. If you do not plan on us repairing your motorcycle or take the bike out of the facility, we do charge one hour of technician labor regardless of the actual time it takes to do the estimate.
