The Bay’s Trusted Experts in EV Care

Advisor Kevin went above and beyond to make our Bolt whole again in one day after a chunk of concrete on the road took out a tire and wheel. He found the last new matching wheel in Northern California.

After some pretty disappointing experiences at the dealership, I took my EV here to get a checkup/routine maintenance and new tires. It's a 2016 Spark, which is kinda niche since there weren't many of them made; the Chevy dealer kinda treated it like an inconvenient curiosity...

I cannot say enough good things about Earthling - the shop is clean and organized, with a super comfortable waiting area (I was there for 3 hours since I decided to wait... Coffee and WiFi!). Wonderful communication by text pre and post appointment. They stand by their work, explained everything that needed to be done and why, and never seemed annoyed by questions or too rushed to give thoughtful answers…

“If you own an EV this should be your "go to" garage. Forget the dealerships and head straight to Earthling! They have perfected the "no hassle, no b.s." type of service that dealerships should take note of! You can see the estimate the night before, approve it, check in the day of service, know what to expect, get the work done, be NOTIFIED when it's done, PAY before you pick it up....when you arrive to get your vehicle, they go over everything, ask if you have any questions, hand you your keys and away you go!

AND....if you want to wait, they have a great waiting area, free wi-fi, coffee and snacks....This place ROCKS! I AM a bona fide EARTHLING!”

”This is clearly the place to go for EV repair. Earthling has deep expertise with EV technology. Their knowledge goes much deeper than the major hybrid dealers like GM and Toyota, that are still tied to old-school internal combustion engine technology. Highly recommended.”

“Short and sweet review, just like my appointment. Walk in, hand over keys, go get breakfast, come back, and everything is taken care of, for 1/3 the amount it would have cost at the dealership. Which also would have taken 24 hours and made me stand around for two hours waiting to pick the damn thing back up again.

I’ve been a satisfied customer of EA since 2010, back when it was Luscious Garage. It’s still just as awesome as it ever was. Hooray!”

“My first time at Earthling Automotive today! I am a fan for life! Great process from start to finish. All repair shops need to take a lesson from Earthling on how to keep & retain customers! Easy on-line scheduling, estimate BEFORE you arrive that you can approve or tailor to your needs.....all BEFORE you get there! They do the work, go over it with you and voilà, you're done!

Great staff, cool waiting area and FAST SERVICE...I am an EARTHLING from NOW ON!”

“Great trustworthy place. Will definitely be coming back if there’s anything wrong with my car.”

“Wonderful service, considerate personnel, respectful staff and concise work. They check with you before progressing to do more work. show you pictures and you can decide how badly you want the work done when they say it could wait another 5000 miles. When I asked for a new license plate frame as mine was broken, a picture of my repaired problem flashed on the screen! they had already done it without my asking!”

“I called and was helped immediately. I was given an appt for the next day and texted updates about my appt. I brought my car in and was given details on the work to be done to estimate what the repair and cost would be. Luckily enough they had the parts I needed and they were WAY more affordable than what the dealer costs were! Thank goodness. I was a little nervous as the diagnosis was slightly different than what the dealer had told me, yet the work was done. Again, thank goodness. Seems like their technician was spot on as the problem seems to be solved, and I now have two working headlights and can confidently drive at night again. I’m very grateful for the prompt, quick and accurate work done on my car!”
