Found these guys on Groupon when I was looking for oil change deals. Wasn't sure what to expect since a full synthetic oil change came out to only $40, but this awesome little shop has been the best car repair/maintenance experience I've ever had! I called ahead on a Saturday morning to make sure they could get me in and out without leaving the car. When I pulled up Bryce, the owner I think, knew exactly who I was by name from the earlier call. He was really cool and gave me the Groupon deal directly so I didn't have to buy it on my phone. The mechanic, Jesse, was awesome! He did a full inspection of my car and went through everything with me, explaining what was looking good, what work needed to be done, asking about the car's repair history, and showing me everything with a flashlight while the car was up in the air- really great teacher. I know NOTHING about car engines, belts, shocks, etc., but I do now! He even gave me a list with all of his notes, complete with really reasonable prices for the minor repairs I needed. I'll definitely be back for any other car maintenance or repairs I need in the future. Highly recommend! - Shelby C. (5-star review left on Yelp)

Academy Automotive went above and beyond with their service, at a fantastic price as well! All of their people, from Bryce, to Manuel, Jacob and Winston, were extremely kind and helpful. It was refreshing to see guys who truly care about doing a good job AND treating people well. They also seem to really enjoy working there. Turn around time was quick and they delivered on their promises. I couldn't be happier! - Kaili K. (5-star review left on Yelp)

Friendly staff, and great service! Sweet little gem tucked in behind target, and next to the Adventist academy. - Kevin K. (5-star review left on Yelp)

I bought a Conejo Deal coupon on line for a headlight restoration. Wasn't sure what to expect but thought I'd give it a shot. These guys were great. As nice as they could be and the job they done was great. I will be going back. - Terriel H. (5-star review left on Yelp)

I got my headlights restored. Wow! What a difference. The office staff were friendly. After reading the other reviews, I will come back for other car needs. - Kim A. (5-star review left on Yelp)

These guys are awesome! Today, I came here for the first time and got an inexpensive oil change. Academy Automotive 805 offered me a ride to my office, but I decided to hang out instead. My car was done in no time! I am very pleased with the level of service, friendliness and knowledge these guys have. I think I found my new shop! Annnndddd, it doesn't hurt that Brent is totally huggable! - Emily A. (5-star review left on Yelp)

John the owner did an amazing job on my Mercedes CLA 250. I scratched the entire side on my brand new car on a pole and dented both driver's side doors. I took it to other shops for estimates but what they wanted to charge was outrageous. John not only gave me a fair deal, he did an impeccable job. No one would ever know it was damaged. I will definitely bring it back here for repairs and will recommend him to all of my friends. - Kristen B. (5-star review left on Yelp)

I recently had my brakes and oil change here. I did not know that this place existed until a friend referred me. The service was outstanding and the staff was friendly and helpful! I've had bad experiences elsewhere - it was so refreshing to get excellent service from true professionals! - Jeanna A. (5-star review left on Yelp)
