Bascom Avenue Chevron Service, Inc.

Bascom Avenue Chevron Service (aka John’s Bascom Automotive) at 1305 S Bascom Ave: Pros — long‑time local customers call the shop honest, fair‑priced, and worth returning to; staff (named reviewers cite Mike and John) are often described as helpful; quick turnarounds and efficient, reasonably priced routine work (smog checks, maintenance) are commonly reported. Cons — several reviews note a diagnostic fee of about $180, some customers were asked to show ID for credit‑card payments, occasional curt communication from staff, and at least one reported mechanical oversight (an air‑intake left disconnected after an oil change).
