Testimonials


My family has been using Fred’s repair services since he purchased the Gasoline station at the Roosevelt Plaza many years ago. I have been using Fred since I moved back to Redwood City 15 years ago. I followed Fred (and Dale) when they moved Image Auto to downtown Redwood City and still use them in their new quarters in San Carlos. Superb quality service with home grown friendliness!

Great customer service. I took the car in for a smog check and oil change and ended up having a leak in the radiator. The owner called me and let me know and was quick to get it taken care of. I will definitely come back again.

This is the only place we would take any of our cars. Fred and staff are the real deal. And as other reviewers have noted they are honest and totally customer focused. So glad that Rodz next door recommended them over 5 years ago.

If there was a 6th star I would give it to them. Fred and Dale and the crew are excellent. They are professional, extremely trustworthy and always provide top notch service to my car. The customer service is excellent and they even drove me too and from my place of employment on the day my car was in their shop. Look no further when you need a auto repair shop!

Cant say enough about Image Auto! Ive been bringing my vehicles to Fred for many years since his days back at Shell in Redwood City. The service is always top notch. Most importantly, the TRUST factor and honesty allows me to drop off my vehicle and know that Im not going to be ” taken to town”! Its worth my travels even with a very busy schedule for everything including oil changes and smog. Ive sent all my friends and family to Fred and have never yet herd anything negative. There is a lot to be said for a shop you would send your grandmother to, and feel comfortable!

Recently I was referred by a friend to Image Auto. I always feel more secure knowing someone has used their service and that they were satisfied. It is so hard to find a mechanic you can trust, but more so know your vehicle. Image Auto exceeded my expectations on both levels. They found the issue right away, informed me and fixed it in a reasonable amount of time. I feel they were diligent, fair and honest and would not hesitate to take my business there again. I might also add their location is so convenient as it is right around the corner from Enterprise Car Rental

These guys are the best. Quality work done quickly and well. Have been using Image Auto for years, since Fred and Dale were in RC on Roosevelt, then Main St. and now in San Carlos. Professional, honest and friendly.

Fred and Dale are fantastic. They always fit me in, charge a fair rate, and do first class work. It is hard to find a repair shop you can trust that doesn’t try to gouge. They do great service and very professional.

We have 7 company vehicles and several personal and we take them all to Image Auto. They do a great job and are always quick on the repair with great prices. I recommend them to everyone looking for a honest dependable shop.

I have been taking my car and a few friend’s cars to Fred for a while now. I can honestly say that every experience has been outstanding. I hope he never retires…

Fred and team are top notch. I’ve brought my ’69 Cadillac into Image Auto a couple of times and both experiences have been perfect. Rory replaced the main wiring harness and figured out where all the electrical issues were. I just brought it back for a fuel pump & fuel filter. Good pricing, excellent service. Highly recommended

Once again Fred stopped what he was doing and helped my son with his vehicle. I cant say enough how much it means to me to know that my family is getting the service and quality of work that I have always gotten. Thank You Image Auto.
