I was just passing through town on cross country road trip in my 1998 Toyota Tacoma that I just purchased. Its a 23 year old truck with 230k miles on it so I just wanted to make sure everything was in good shape before I headed back east. I looked up Affordable Care and decided to bring it based on the reviews of their honesty and customer service. I quickly realized why they have the stellar reputation they do.I brought my truck in at 7:45 before the opened and there were already 5 people ahead of me to drop their car off. This is a first come first serve shop for walk ins. I was just getting the $45 general diagnostic fee and left the truck with Stacey and his team. Stacey called me by noon to tell my truck was ready to go and everything looked good. When I get there to pick it up he insisted on waiving the $45 diagnostic fee and sent me on my way free of charge even though he knew I wasnt local and wouldnt be a return customer. He gave me a heads up on maintenance I need to be on the lookout for down the road. This is how you do business the right way and cultivate this type of reputation. Dont take your car anywhere else.
I really like this place. They are very professional and efficient. When I had my ‘98 Camry, this was the only place in the area that was able to fix it. Every other mechanic I went to would tell me lots of things and fix something, but it clearly wasnt it because the problems persisted.I wasted lots of time and money. After coming here, no further problems. I later sold the car and havent had the need for a mechanic (knock on wood). But if I do, I know where to go.
Stacey is the man! Had my AC compressor replaced just in time before the heat wave/summer time! Also had brakes replaced after they fully inspected my car and notified me that they were due for service.Dont hesitate to bring your cars here for service! I was referred by a friend and they delivered.Stacey is a true professional and running a great shop!Thanks again!
Places like this are rare nowadays. Stacy and crew are the most knowledgeable and trustworthy mechanics youll ever find. Dont believe me? Come in for yourself and I promise you wont take your car anywhere else. Ive been coming here for Four years now and Stacy will give you the run down on your vehicle, problems that are common with that particular model, and everything you need to be aware of about your car before you decide to have any work done. Once the car is worked on they will store all maintenance history in the computer and come up with a schedule to keep your car running in optimal shape. All mechanics here are top certified for Acura/Honda/Toyota/lexus, and the pricing is always fair. They really treat your car as if it was their own, are extremely busy, and operate on a first come first serve basis. So Id advise you to get there at least a half hour early. Saturday they are open for appointments only, So call ahead and plan accordingly.
Very honest on pricing and good honest work. Been coming here for a few years now and I dont regret it.
Been coming here for years. They do great work and have always diagnosed the problem accurately. Just FYI. Get there before opening. Parking is rough after they open.
So glad I came here! The service was great and they gave me advice that saved me over $1,000. I am so grateful for honest, trustworthy mechanics who take their time to give you the best service possible.
I feel lucky to find a skilled and honest mechanic like Stacy!
I moved out to LA recently and was in need of a mechanic but someone I could trust with my car for an affordable price because we all know how expensive LA is. I was having power steering fluid leaks and I was told what exactly was wrong with my car when I asked a question about a code on my check engine light he was fast to respond and very professional. I had nothing but a great experience with these guys, I highly recommend you use their services and I will be back soon to take care of the other problems with my car.
The only place I will trust to perform any type of maintenance on my car.
I didnt think a mechanic like this existed. Stacey was super easy to work with, he explains everything theyre doing and why theyre doing it.Price is straight forward and he went with a cheaper solution at first to see if it would fix my issue.All in all, I had a blown head gasket on my 2013 prius and they fixed it for 1/3 - 1/5 of the cost toyota was quoting me.They did a little extra and fixed some spark plugs also.Great experience and they will have my business as long as I have this car or any type of car they work on.Hats off for great, transparent service!!!
Stacey and his team are absolutely the best in the business! I drive a 2006 Honda Element that they help me keep in excellent condition, and its my daily driver for business. Its not local for me, but well worth the drive for great service. Thanks for all you do!
My VW was leaking oil, so I brought it to Affordable Care at 9am, and they fixed it within 2 hours. Since I came from CA, they gave me the VIP treatment and drove me to Starbucks near the mall to wait. They came back to pick me up right before the job was finished. The price was very reasonable for replacing a cracked oil pan. Very pleased with their service and professionalism. I think Ive found a new mechanic!
All my single ladies and everybody else . If you are looking for a mechanic you cant trust to go it alone and not have to bring a male counterpart to accompany you - this is the place to go! Absolutely one of the best repeat experiences with Affordable Car Care. Theres always so much skepticism going into getting your car fixed - the worry of making sure youre dealing with honesty and efficiency. Stacey completely explains his process...The effects of said issues and why you need to get it fixed and why your car is responding the way it is . He stands behind his work and has an open door policy with his repairs. Hes what every mechanic should be - but unfortunately isnt.Cheers to you for checking all boxes across the board. Great service, integrity, reasonable pricing and stellar repairs.
Stacey, the manager, is as honest & courteous as they come. We trust him with servicing our minivan, and recommend this business.
Stacy is great, knowledgeable and will always give you a great deal! I only trust him with our vehicles
I love Stacey and his crew! Such a great, honest shop! If I lived in LA, I’d still be going there!
Stacey is the Best! I am so happy he was recommended to me years ago. As long as I have my Toyota Camry, I will get work done at affordable care. I trust them and the work they do. They have always been straight up and honest. And Yes, they get busy here. Why? Because they are Very Good.
These guys are great. Incredible prices, and I came here because another shop said I needed hundreds of dollars in work, they took a look and said I was absolutely fine and sent me on my way with no bill. Very trustable people.
Very good people quick professional services highly recommended
I am so grateful for a friend recommending Stacey. I got an accurate inspection and found my anticipated expensive repairs had been misdiagnosed and what had worried me was unnecessary. I am so relieved and so grateful to be under Staceys wing. I feel confident that I can keep and safely drive my car years longer. I love having an older car that blends in.
Had catalytic converter stolen while helping a friend move. They were professional and very thorough in their explanation. They also made a really good effort to get me in then out of there as quickly as possible, hunting down an oem replacement quickly for me.
Hands down the best mechanic in Los AngelesHis business should be names Honest and Affordable Care because that is what you get when you come here10 star A+++++Come here if you want your car fixed right.
Theyre the best.
Pretty much one of the things keeping me in LA is Stacy and his team... other places will quote me about 3x what he asks and the repairs hes done have been solid with no issue!
Jimmy was really helpful. It was like getting car work done by my dad. He made sure that everything was in great condition with my clutch replacement. Highly recommend this place. Thanks.
Always great and super thorough, been here a few times for my Honda and will keep coming back!
Flat out fantastic. If you want quality, affordable service and helpful advice, this is the place.
Stacy at Affordable Care was kind, quick to diagnose and explain my car’s problems, and was able to fix the car at an affordable price. True to the name and an easy experience. I arrived five minutes before 8am and was able to be helped before 8:20. Get there when it opens!
Very quick, friendly & professional with super fair pricing.
Honest and reliable. Highly recommend these guys. Just got my Lexus brake pads replaced and rotors resurfaced. He explained clearly what he was charging for and the price was fair. They have the popular oem brands as well ( like Nissin or Akebono). Hopefully no issues going forward.
Prompt and knowledgeable. Had called previously, and actually got my issue fixed over the phone (well, I did the actual fixing on car, but Stacy was able to provide diagnosis on my 4wheeled baby). Great service. I was freaking out when my check engine light went on and the car had several codes. But he was honest, did a quick fix, didnt even charge. Will definitely be back for routine maintenance. Update: had to take car in. It took a while to be seen, but he was thorough with explaining what he did, and didnt charge me a thing!
Love this place, they are so helpful, explained everything, timely, and very respectful of budget and giving customers all the information they need to make a decision. Least stressful auto shop experience I have ever had. Definitely coming back.
Excellent service out of this place. Took our car in for a random issue, they checked it out and found nothing wrong. AMAZING!
Stacy is very nice. He handled the issue I had with my brake lights not turning off while the car/lights were off in less than 5 minutes. He didnt even charge me. Highly recommended!
The best place in the Los Angeles area for major repairs. The staff and mechanics are honest, and they dont try to sell you service or parts that you dont need.
Excellent service out of this place. Took our car in for a random issue, they checked it out and found nothing wrong. Other places still would’ve charged for labor but these guys didn’t. Awesome and will definitely going back here
This is the best Honda and Toyota auto shop in Los Angeles. The service here is unmatched in speed, courtesy, and knowledge without any attitude. The owner loves to communicate as distinctly as possible to allow everyone to make the best decision. The shop is first come first serve Monday through Friday, so show up at 8 to get in the queue.
Stacy and his team are absolutely wonderful. My family has only gone to Stacy for the past ten years and he has never let us down. He will take you through and even show you exactly what needs to be fixed so you know 100% what you’re paying for and what is being done. You can even call in with questions and Stacy kindly takes them all. One thing: there can be quite a wait so for the fastest service get there around 7:30. He’ll take your keys & hear what you have to say then call you later wherever you are with whats wrong and what they’ll do.
After coming here several times for automotive repair, I have been very impressed with the service this auto repair shop has done. Stacy and his crew are absolutely awesome. Very knowledgeable in performing work and in giving much needed repairrecommendations. Thank you for the honest work.
Thank you guys for a great experience! Definitely recommend this place if you need a quick fix with a decent price.
I called in ready to pay an arm & leg for what I thought was wrong with my vehicle. He explained the process & let me know I was previously mislead & the work I was looking for did not actually need to be done. Amazing service & honest communication!
My wife had been recommended this place by a fair amount of people, when checking yelp I couldnt argue with the reviews.Brought my car in today to have the door lock fixed, was done in a very reasonable amount of time, at a pretty reasonable price. Stacey, the owner, was very friendly and personable. Theyve won my business going forward, its nice to have someone you can trust working on my car.
I have worked and Ive dealt with many mechanics in the past, rarely do you come across someone whos honest, knowledgeable and fair priced. Stacey and his team here do very good work and they know what they are doing. These guys are specialists, dont bring them a car they do not advertise working on, its a waste of their talent. If you have a Honda or Toyota, this is where you want to go.
The best Auto Care place I have ever been to in NY and in LA. I have a Honda Crv and they not only fixed any issues I have but in depth informed me about the issues, procedure and care as a consumer. Best Customer Service you are going to get as a car owner!
Stacy and staff are informative, efficient and definitely affordable for my Acura TL. Stacy has aftercare instructions and sent me off with a cash discount. Fast!
Stacey and the gang ARE THE BEST!!! I always have a number in my head that I will be spending and he comes in way below. They dont up-sell, in fact, they down sell and still make you feel like youll be safe and sound! They empower you with the knowledge to make educated decisions. I would highly recommend them to any Honda users!
Stacey and his crew are THE REAL DEAL! Ive taken my 04 Acura TL to him several times during the last 3 years. Each time the needed repairs were done quickly and at a super reasonable cost.On top of that... Stacey does not try and push unneeded repairs on you. Hes very up-front about what repair is needed and how soon.
If you call this place to get a second opinion, you’ll be calling this place for the first opinion next time. Great prices, kind and attentive service. Stacy is busy, but this is a good thing.
This place is the absolute best. Amazing, caring service. They go above and beyond to help out the customer and do whats in their best interest.
I have used this place a few times. I switch between Hollywood Toyota dealer and this place. I prefer this place because of Yelp reviews. Once at the Toyota dealers shop for multipoint inspection I was told I am missing engine cover. My car is always parked in our garage, I do not park on street. The car has never gone to any other mechanic. Thus, the engine cover was misplaced either here during service or in the Toyota dealers shop. Stacy checked here and could not find in the shop. I am wondering if anyone else has similar experience.
We are very satisfied with service today here in Affordable Care.
Owner Stacey runs an extremely honest business and is never short of work, because of the shop-ethics
Honest and straight to the point. This garage is always busy for a reason. Highly recommended.
Amazing place. Took the car there once and the guy explained everything to me in detail etc. Friendly staff. Fast service.
Most honest mechanic(s) there are. Half the time they fix and its so small they dont charge me. Theyve also told me to go to the dealer and how to deal with the dealership to obtain out-of-warranty repairs before. And when they do work on my car... Excellent service.
Called Garry about an 87 Corolla that I wanted to buy from an estate. It had failed smog and I needed to find out why and whether it was worth getting fixed.
Came here without an appointment at 2pm, knowing that they close at 5pm. However Stacey said theyre always swamped and wont get to me until 4pm. I had no where else to go since I had to leave my car parked there, so I just sat in their waiting room for THREE hours. That was the longest three hours of my life, it was miserable. He did give me the wifi password which was nice.Stacey finally checked out my car and told me to come with him. He showed me different parts of the engine and explained in great detail so many aspects of a car that I had never known about. He was really trying to teach me, which is unlike anything I have ever seen before, so that was a nice touch.He was only able to give me a quick overview of my car since by that time it was about 5pm, so it was no charge. I do wish they would speed things up a bit, since the duration was most annoying to me.
Regarding the 3 star review below, please note its an outlier. Also keep in mind that Stacey is very busy because hes honest, knowledgeable, professional, and takes time to explain exactly whats going on and why repair is OR ISNT necessary. Great mechanic! Just make appt or get there early.
Reliable, honest, great service
Read the reviews, looking for an honest mechanic to assist my son who is new to the area area and me in Texas. Called and spoke to Stacy, we both agreed that it could be the clutch issue on a Acura TSX a quoted 1200.00 repair. But Stacy asked that let the team check the car first. The team found that it wasnt the clutch but a bad coil. Stacy knowing that I was in Texas, he could have told me that everything was bad but he told me exactly what was the problem and the price to repair. Thank you Stacy and company, you have a new customer.
Stacy is the best! They dont make honest car guys like him anymore. Thats why all his customers are friends for life.
Pros: Tremondously good price and timely completion for a timing chain and water pump service.Cons: They left a bolt loose that made the front right rattle at starts and stops.
Always great and inexpensive service. The owners are hardworking and honest.
My wife and I only drive Toyota and Honda products for one reason. Stacy only works on Toyota and Honda. This is the best garage in town.
Brought my 05 wrx here for service. Kevin knows his stuff and I would trust him to fix my car again.
The only person I will voluntarily wake up ridiculously early on a Saturday for. Will consider buying only cars Stacey will work on in the future because I dont think there is a better mechanic out there.
I never even met this dude or got my car serviced by him because I have a Ford, but he explained his views on his work & I can just tell this dude is honest, has intregrity, & loves what he does. Wish I had a Honda or Toyota... -Annastasia
Honest staff and good prices
My general rules:Do a good job = 3 stars+ Affordable and a good price = 4 stars+ Great customer service and help = 5 starsThis place gets 5 stars and Stacy is the bomb.
Dude is awesome . Hes s trusted mechanic
Its the best
Stacy is a real gentleman. Helped me beyond my expectations. Thank you Sir
Owner is great!
Yep. The real deal. Id say its a change of pace from those other guys but I wouldnt know. 11 years and running Ive been coming here.
Always excellent service.
Stacey and Charlie are the best.
These guys are Awesome!
I was looking for a replacement key for my 2003 Honda Element (Key with Chip) and after being transferred to the service department at Honda of Glendale 10 times with no answer and being quoted $200 by Honda of Hollywood called this place and the friendly staff was helpful and quoted me over half off the price the dealership gave me!
Honestly and good service
Great service
Highly recommend.
Great service
