I came in famous to get my car diagnosed and Keri,the young lady working,was very kind and listened to me explain the problems I was having. I was extremely happy with her service. She cares about her customer and that you don’t find much of anymore. Thank you Keri for everything. Stay blessed!!! I will be back!!!

My many experiences with Famous Automotive have been nothing short of excellence. Keri is one employee whom I see often at the front desk. She is someone who provides outstanding service to meet my vehicles needs consistently. She is a considerate and attentive professional who pays attention to detail to ensure quality service. I highly recommend this store for any of your auto service needs.

Thank you Keri for the excellent assistance to ensure I got best service possible from the folks at your location. You contacted me in a timely manner upon completion. Hands down I would recommend your location to the anyone. A+++ for customer service Keri.

Wow, where do I began. So, I took my car into the shop bc I had service there b4. Today, I went in with my Windshield Wipers freezing while on low mode on the switch. Tech diagnosed that switch needs to be replaced. After he attempted to replace the switch he says that did not fix the issue so referred me to a Electric Auto Repair. After receiving my car back, there was no charge but now the AC and Power Seats are not working, while I'm driving on the way home. This is not no damn coincidence. I called Kerri at the front desk and she tries to defend the reputation of the company instead of giving me District Manager info to file a complaint. I already know what they will say when I take my car back in. " The new issues are not related to the Wiper Switch. I am filing a complaint with BBB and Florida Consumer Protection Bureau.

1 star only because it would not let me enter a review without it. Went in at 1130 for an alignment, was told wait and service time total would be 2 hours. Long story short. 3 hours later waiting at the shop, my car did not even make it inside the shop due to ‘someone else’s problem taking precedent’ Took back my keys and went somewhere else.


Aug 06, 2024

Best customer service ever. Keri had the best attitude ever and she was friendly.

I have a code finder so I knew what the code was and the general problem. I used to take all my vehicles to Famous Automotive on San Jose but I moved. I was having trouble getting in to shops because of the waiting time, so I took a chance here and dropped the car off. They pulled the diagnostic test for free and told me what I already knew, but that there were some additional issues. I didn't trust them at first because they were new to me. I checked with other shops for the diagnosis and the price and they were almost $200 cheaper with the same repair! My car is running better than it ever has! They got me in and out in less than 3 hours on a Saturday......again, Famous Automotive has never done me wrong and I highly recommend this location. They were very nice and very understanding.....take your car in today!

I recently brought in my 14 Impala for a second opinion on why my A/C was not working another shop wanted to replace my compressor and quoted me thousands of dollars to replace the compressor and recharge the system so I brought it in to Famous for a second opinion and spoke to Keri she had her Tech Jordan look into it. Jordan found the issue and it was a simple recharging of freon. I gladly paid them for the recharge service and I am a happy customer. I will be back for other services when they arise as it's hard to find an honest shop.


Aug 06, 2024

Keri is awesome and always takes good care of me and my vehicles!!


Aug 06, 2024

These guys were easy to work with and they took care of my car problem . I arranged to have the front end problem fixed and they took care of and even told me of another up coming problem I will need to have fixed. Will use again when my car has a problem


Aug 06, 2024

They are reliable, honest and operate with integrity. I recommend them to anyone who is looking for some great mechanics. Keri always takes the time to answer any questions I may have, and provides me with all the options available-from repair to replacement. They the best !!


Aug 06, 2024

Very good service I always come here ,every vehicle I had they get job done highly recommend them to anybody

We called Famous Automotive after discovering a construction staple stuck into our tire. They were able to get us in within an hour and patched the tire all free of charge! I was very impressed with their speed and professionalism. They also clearly care about customer service. Will happily be bringing our cars back to them!

Very impressed with service I received. I brought my Chev Tahoe in to replace turn signal and running light. They had me fixed in minutes. I will be back. I have recommended to friends and family. Excellent Service!!

I had been to 12 shops that morning looking for someone to help me take a look at a sensor under my car. They were all rude, busy, and turned me away. I was about to give up when I saw Famous Automotive and figured I'd give one more shop a try. They were happy to chat with me, friendly, and treated me like family as they immediately got my car up on the lift and helped me diagnose my issue for FREE! I've never felt so thankful for such an amazing experience, it was like a dream come true! I'm so thankful, would highly recommend to everyone. Thank you!


Jun 06, 2024

I wish I could give MORE stars. They fixed just what I needed for a decent price and didn't try and sell me on things I didn't need. I will be back again if anything happens.


Apr 06, 2024

Had them replace a spark plug for a misfire on cylinder number three. Drove the car 44 miles and it started overheating. Took the car back to them and they said it was the same error code they had supposedly fixed two weeks prior. Was told that I now need a new engine but would not tell me how they come to that conclusion. Had taken my car there for over two years without problems and the manager has changed twice in the last half year and it is horrible. Have now taken my car to a ASE certified JEEP dealership and will definitely submitting results to the !!! And my attorney


Apr 06, 2024

Just plain rude!!!


Apr 06, 2024

My only car place love the team they really treat you like family they always hear to help


Feb 06, 2024

Great customer service. Replaced brakes and rotors, brake fluid flush, and oil change. Completed what needed to be done and didn't push other sales. Will go back again, when/if needed.


Feb 06, 2024

Love this place


Feb 06, 2024

Went to famous due to car trouble and Steve was not only a life saver but a big help I highly recommend


Jan 06, 2024

When we first started using them service was great stil is except the tire warranty that doesn’t cover anything , second set of tires we bought and with both sets had a flat and wasn’t covered,why not sell the road hazard and actually fix the tires instead of calling it free and not fixing the tire. They claimed we drove on it flat ,you can’t tell me that every time you get a flat you can pull over immediately that’s not always the case. We talked to them this morning. They did not even cut us one penny of a break on the new tire just not good business practice.

Don’t take your car to them. Not only did they lose the panel to protect our battery. They tried to scam me into buying a new batter and nothing was wrong with the old one. Had to pay 142 for them to take the battery off because they said it no longer worked. Now have to pay 100 for a new panel they didn’t put on correct. Told us it was our fault even though we rode from the south side. With it. I will be contacting bbb on them
