Our story
Who We Are
Auto Repair For Less is a full-service shop on E Main Street in El Cajon, run by owner Rabah alongside technicians Antonio and Rob. Customers come back year after year, and some drive in from as far as Escondido, because the diagnosis is honest and the price matches the work done.
We handle the jobs that keep a car running well: oil and filter changes, brake pads and rotors, tune-ups, belt replacement, and full diagnostic checks, on domestic cars and German imports alike. Most repairs are completed the same day, so you are not left waiting on your vehicle any longer than you have to.
- Flat, transparent labor rates
- Most repairs finished same day
- Services imports and domestic vehicles
- Repeat customers across San Diego County
What customers say
“I keep going there for many years. I really like the place, the owner Rabah he is very nice and honest, and Antonio and the other guy they are very nice, they do great job and their price is very reasonable. Highly recommended to everybody.”
“Excellent service, accommodating personnel, amazing technical skills. I have been coming here all the way from Escondido with all my cars, including German engineered, and have only great things to say about this shop.”
“Auto Repair For Less did a great job. They inspected my car and provided a diagnosis showing me my worn out brake pads and rotors. They did a fabulous job. I also got a tune-up and oil change for my 2015 Nissan Altima. The total price was reasonable and the job was completed within four hours. Antonio is very polite and professional, and Rob is knowledgeable and thorough. I highly recommend them.”
