Our Story:

Cal Oaks Auto Repair Shop

In the Temecula area, we love our cars. They help us get the kids to school on time and to bring home groceries. They take us to work and to our friends’ homes, they bring families together for holidays and celebrations.

That's why when opportunity knocked in 2011, Dimitri Loutfi opened Cal Oaks Auto Repair. He continues to run the business with his wife, Denise, according to the idea that all of us should be able to trust that we're getting an honest, quality auto repair every single time.

Meet Dimitri

Husband and wife team Dimitri and Denise run Cal Oaks Auto Repair in California, a well established auto repair shop with over 3,800 happy, loyal customers.

Originally from Beirut, Lebanon, Dimitri had been living in California for a few years when the opportunity to open a repair shop arose. He jumped at the chance and Cal Oaks Auto Repair was born in 2011.

Dimitri earned his ASE Certification from the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence. He holds the Master Technician Certification & The Advanced Level Certifications.

He continues to serve his customers both under the hood and behind the desk. He said, "I treat my customers very well, I make them feel good to be at my shop. If there's a job I can't take, I'm honest about it and let them take it somewhere else." As a bonus, he can serve customers in four languages: English, French, Spanish, and Arabic.

“Dimitri took my call and was able to fit me in on short notice for a brake job on our minivan. He was on top of our job quickly and called to clearly explain the situation & cost for labor and parts. He is a friendly, straightforward businessman who has the necessary attention to detail, understands customers, and great customer service.”

"Dimitri is a wonderful man! Brought in my Saturn because the check engine light was on. Dimitri serviced my vehicle. Explained why the light was on in terms I would understand. I felt super comfortable with him and his shop. Will be coming back. I have found my new car place!"
