Leaving your vehicle at a repair shop takes trust.

You’re handing over something you depend on every day—for work, family, errands, and everything in between. That is why every inspection and repair deserves real attention.

At Coastal Car Care, we inspect carefully, explain clearly, and do the work right. No shortcuts. No guesswork. Just honest service from people who care.

Whether it’s a daily driver, a family SUV, or a classic you’ve treasured for years, we treat every vehicle with the respect it deserves.

Because earning your trust will always matter more than simply earning your business. 🌊

Meet Glen Hoisington — the heart behind Coastal Car Care. 🌊

Long before Coastal Car Care became a trusted name in San Marcos, Glen was a young boy in Alaska with a passion for engines, hard work, and figuring things out.

One day, his parents presented him with a challenge involving a dead 1969 Toyota Corona. That moment would become the beginning of a journey that eventually led to Coastal Car Care.

👉 Curious what happened next? Read Glen's full story:

More than 45 years later, Glen's impact reaches far beyond the vehicles in the shop.

Together, Glen and Michele have built more than a business. They've built a reputation rooted in honesty, integrity, craftsmanship, and genuine care for people. They've created a place where customers feel respected, employees feel valued, and family comes first.

That's what legacy looks like.

As we celebrate Father's Month, we'd like to recognize Glen and all the fathers who lead by example, serve their families and communities, and understand that true success isn't measured by what you achieve—it's measured by the people you inspire along the way. 💙

Not every day you get to work on a piece of American history.

A classic like this 1957 Bel Air reminds us why we love what we do. Every detail matters. Every repair helps keep another piece of automotive history on the road for another generation to enjoy.

And whether it's a classic car or a daily driver, our approach stays the same:
Take care of it like it matters. Because it does.

Some vehicles are more than just transportation.
They’re memories, milestones, and years of hard work brought to life.

At Coastal Car Care, we understand what it means when someone trusts us with a classic car. That trust is never taken lightly.

From vintage muscle cars to weekend cruisers and full mechanical restorations, we take pride in treating every classic with the care, patience, and attention it deserves.

And the best part?

That same level of care goes into the daily drivers our customers rely on every single day.
