Santa Cruz Auto Repair

Above and beyond. I came to Water Star without an appointment on recommendation of another shop that could not accommodate me. I needed to travel to LA, and was concerned about an oil leak. Nathan and Jeff were super, as were all the staff I met. They slid me into the schedule to check for the leak. Great people, very professional. Highly recommended and would definitely use their services next time I need a reliable professional mechanic.

This place is amazing! I am so pleased with their service- they are highly skilled, kind and efficient. They pulled off a miracle repair and restoration- my engine looks brand new. I can't say enough good things about Waterstar Motors, I am recommending them to my family and friends.

We are so happy with Waterstar Motors. All of the staff is helpful and kind.

I have a 2008 Prius which I really love. I found WaterStar Motors through word of mouth. My friend who had a Prius had used them and was very happy. I am ecstatic to find WaterStar. Finding someone you trust to work on your car is amazingly difficult these days. I've moved to Southern California and I drive up to Waterstar for my repairs and service now because I trust them. By going to WaterStar Motors you will be meeting a group of honest, friendly and knowledgeable people. Jeff and Leslie the owners, are onsite and manage the daily operations and customer service and satisfaction. Stephanie, the service manager, rocks the boat with her knowledge of cars, car parts-you name it-and many years in the business along with Nathan. The service technicians are certified and I have never had to come back for anything related to the services or repairs that were performed. I came in after going to a previous garage for 8 years. WaterStar cleaned my engine (complimentary)! My engine had never been cleaned. After driving my car through dust and a rainstorm in the desert to get here my car was washed vacuumed and the wIndows were cleaned after my repair and service so that I could drive home safely. I was amazed. So thoughtful. If you go there, I guarantee with like minds, you'll feel at home. I just wished I lived in Santa Cruz. Just want to say "Thank you!."

Always great customer service!
