Redwood City, CA 94061

A+ Auto Repair earns generally positive reviews for clear, photo-backed explanations, courteous staff, thorough repairs, and convenient perks (courtesy shuttle/loaners and pickup/delivery); recurring but isolated negatives include communication/follow‑through lapses, a reported oil overfill, a splash‑shield reinstallation issue, and occasional perceptions of high prices.
