Everyone was so kind and helpful here; we came in to replace tires because we thought our front tire was leaking. They checked it out and found nothing wrong so just upped the tire pressure on all four and were super understanding. Really appreciated the folks here and will be returning whenever we ACTUALLY end up needing a tire, lol. :)

Amazing service!! Solid Mechanics! Robert and the whole crew are so kind and helpful. They have helped me with everything from routine maintenance to emergency repairs. My husband and I are loyal customers of about 4 years and I can't say enough good things about this place.

I've gotten two oil changes here quickly and affordably, which is why I'm giving two stars instead of one. On the surface, everything appears to be good. Friendly mechanics with reasonable prices and quick service! Unfortunately, on my last visit (the second oil change), I got a call saying I needed two filters replaced for the AC and the engine. They also said my battery was leaking acid and needed to be replaced ASAP. They offered to do it the same day. I was skeptical so I decided to accept the filters but hold off on the battery until I got a second opinion. I went to the AutoZone today and got free battery testing. Watched the whole thing and spoke with the clerk, explaining what they told me. He could not find any leakage and the battery testing device said it was good - in great shape! I saw it with my own eyes. I'm disappointed because I thought I had found a trustworthy neighborhood mechanic with good prices. Now it seems like they are scammy like so many others, trying to manipulate customers into buying services and parts they don't need. I'm afraid now that I may not have needed the filters either and it's possible the tire they replaced for me last month could have easily been patched instead (they said it couldn't). I'll never know for sure! But I certainly won't be back next time I need an oil change or anything else. Just can't trust them to be honest and fair! It's really too bad.

They are great! Very thorough, fair and nice people all around. I highly recommend them for car service repairs, second (or first) opinions / assessments - and tires as well! I’m really grateful they are in my neighborhood.

Had a screw in my new tire on the way to taking kids to school. I stopped in and was explained that side-wall holes get "temporary plugs" ($10) because of location. Tire would have to be replaced soon. He took the screw out and miraculously it did not puncture through. He tested it for leaks and said, "you're a lucky man" and waved me goodbye. I'm coming back for his politeness and honesty. Thanks ☺

Hands down THE MOST TRUSTING EFFICIENT QUICK auto shop in Los Angeles. I’ve been coming for years and when I tell you the complete customer service and knowledgeable mechanics are here, I’m speaking the truth! Ask for Robert and thank me later🙏🏼

I had a flat and they patched it up for a few dollars and saved me from buying new tires. So when it was time to replace them. This is the 1st place I went and they took good care of me and it didn't cost an arm and leg.

I have gotten screwed over so many times at car shops in LA. I am so glad to have found a trustworthy spot with great pieces. I’m now sending my guy friends here because of quality and price. Come here if you’re looking for trust

I've been a loyal customer at this mechanic shop for a few years now, and I can confidently say that they provide top-notch service. Robert, the manager, is consistently friendly, polite, and always goes the extra mile to make customers feel welcome. One of the standout features of this shop is its efficiency. Every time I've brought my vehicle in, they have been quick to diagnose and address the issues, ensuring a prompt turnaround. This efficiency is crucial, and it's evident that the team values their customers' time. What sets this mechanic shop apart is their commitment to affordability. The prices here are the lowest in the area, making it a budget-friendly option for car maintenance and repairs. It's refreshing to find a place that not only delivers quality service but also considers the financial aspect for its customers. I highly recommend this mechanic shop to anyone in need of reliable and affordable car care. It's rare to find a combination of efficiency, friendliness, and low prices all in one place. Kudos to Robert and the entire team for consistently delivering exceptional service.

I've been servicing my car here for years. Robert treats me like a brother and will help you undercut those dealership service fees. Anything Honda or Acura go here.

If you're young, don't know much about cars/mechanical work, or look like they can take advantage of you they'll try. Don't let them. I pulled up to one of the garage entrances at this location, waited a couple of minutes until one of the guys walked up to me and asked what he could help with, I asked him how much he'd charge to change the brake pads on my car for front and back with me providing the pads, I just needed them installed. He let me know to go talk to the manager who was by the front office and he'd give me a price. I walked over to the much younger guy and waited for him to get off the phone and help the lady that was before me, he then asked me how he could help me and I asked how much they would charge to install the brakes on my 2012 Camry just for the installation as I had brought the brake pads with me. He asked me if they were OEM to which I replied yes they are, he looked at me, looked at the car and goes "120" pauses I say Okay and then says "120 for the front and 120 for the back" for a whopping 240 dollars just for labor. Now I have done many brake jobs myself and was in a hurry to get these done. I looked at the guy and said "Daaamn. Thank you, have a great one" drove down the street a couple more blocks to the strip on Santa Monica right before Gower street with all the mechanic shops in that strip and got taken care of for 70 dollars for the front and 70 Dollars for the back. Paid a total of 140 for the same job this guy wanted to charge me 240 dollars for. Stay away from this place if you don't know anything about cars. They'll definitely try to take advantage of you.

Organized and precise machinery.

They claimed to not have used tires for a civic. Really? One of the most common cars?
Feb 06, 2024
They were so nice and helpful! I was able to get in and out really quickly as well! I would recommend and will definitely be back!

This place used to be really nice to go to but I feel like it’s downgrading at this point. The workers don’t seem as focused as they used to be and tend to overlook things and I have to ask them twice to do certain things just to make sure they are doing the job. They lied about putting air in my tires when I asked, guy said yes, then went back to put air in my tires after telling me he had done it. So, he lied that he had done it in the first place. They told me it would be $75 for the oil change I did but ended up charging me $80 when I checked my bank account. I don’t know where the hell the extra 5 dollars came from. So I don’t know.. this place just doesn’t feel right anymore.
