Dragonfly Automotive is always friendly, professional, and provides outstanding service at a great price. My car needed new shocks, new brakes, tire rotation & alignment and an oil change. All of the work was completed in a timely manner, and the price was very fair. The clear communication and transparent pricing are appreciated. It can be difficult to find honest and trustworthy people in this industry. I have a lot of respect for Dragonfly because of their integrity, capabilities and amazing service! Thank you Julio and Vanessa

Was driving into San Diego Friday evening from Los Angeles for a little weekend road trip when my Mk1 Audi TT developed a bad misfire. Pulled over and searched for a shop with good reviews, that was familiar with VW/Audi AND was OPEN ON A SATURDAY. Luckily found Dragonfly was right in the area I happened to be in. Walked in Saturday morning shortly after they opened with no appointment. Luckily they had availability to take me in. Got me diagnosed (bad coil) and repaired IN THE SAME DAY, ON A SATURDAY NO LESS. Had needed parts on hand. Amazing! Many thanks to Alejandro, Erick, and the rest of the Dragonfly team. Had a smooth drive home Sunday. Top notch from the moment I walked in. Their numerous 5 star ratings are well deserved. Can tell true car people are behind this shop. Please don't hesitate to come here.

Hands down, the best mechanic in San Diego. I refuse to take my car anywhere else. Julio and his team are just amazing people. I have nothing but the utmost respect for him and trust him completely with my car.

Enjoyed the experience! I did the oil change, and the price was well below what other shops charge. They also did a complementary comprehensive check on my vehicle and sent me a digital report. And they did not try to sell me any of the fixes that were shown on the report. Luis, at the front desk, was a pleasure to deal with, very helpful and knowledgeable. And the waiting room had a tv, comfy seats and complimentary beverages. Definitely recommend!!!

Called on a Friday to come in for a transmission service they took me on a whim just to find out that honest and true that I didn't need a transmission service and explained why. Second time I've been here both times these people are hands down honest ethical and thorough. I'll be back

Luis and his team are the best of the best. They make sure everyone waiting there as their cars are being serviced are comfortable and cared for. The team does a great job at keeping you posted as issues are discovered, and they conduct their business with the utmost honesty and integrity. I trust Dragonfly, and will return again and again.

All the engine mounts failed on my Pacifica hybrid while on an epic month long road trip from Toronto, when I'm the furthest from home! Bill and his team got my Pacifica back in working order while I enjoyed the sights and tastes of San Diego. Knowing it's an engine issue I was hesitant to use an independent mechanic, but I was glad I did. They have experience with Pacifica hybrid (they had another one already in the shop) and knew exactly what to do. I highly recommend these folks for your routine maintenance if you are local to San Diego or if you are travelling and need help with your vehicle.

My car’s alternator and battery died and I was able to get my car towed to their lot for a late night drop. I spoke to Bill at Dragonfly the following day and he helped me and talked me through all my options and provided me with his best advice. When I was able to give him the green light to go ahead and get the car started, he got it done in a very efficient time and I was able to have my car back by 5pm that same day. I really appreciated their kindness and patience with me as I am no expert when it comes to cars so there were a lot of questions. I would certainly go back here!

I first visited Dragonfly Automotive about three years ago for a simple oil change, and what immediately stood out was the thorough inspection they performed—something I had never experienced at any other mechanic. During that visit, they even discovered a nail in my tire. Since then, I’ve continued coming back because their service has always been exceptional. Most recently, my car needed a new engine along with a few other repairs. Alejandro and Luis were incredible throughout the entire process. They explained everything clearly, were genuinely kind and patient, and even spoke with my dad multiple times to make sure we fully understood the situation since I’m not the most car-savvy. They truly went above and beyond to make me feel supported and informed. After years of being a customer, I can confidently say I trust Dragonfly Automotive completely. They’re honest, transparent, and fair with their pricing. My car is now running smoothly again, and I’ll continue bringing it here. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy mechanic.

They were so great!! I went in for oil change. They noticed something up with my coolant topped it off. I told them it was low next day and they checked it out for free the next day to give me piece of mind. Julio was excellent and really most humanistic morale mechanics I’ve ever interacted with! Everyone in waiting room was saying the same thing. I def will be back!! Great to have a mechanic you can TRUST. They are about building relationships not just business . Thank you again guys!! Vanessa was also a gem and wealth of knowledge.
