Chris is the best. Very knowledgeable, helpful, dependable, and will always try to help you out in anyway he can. The best neighborhood mechanic.

Don’s auto repair is a great place to take your vehicle. I found them online due to the mostly positive reviews made an appointment for my car VW Touareg and my daughters vehicle A Jeep Wrangler, just need an oil change and tires for my car. I found them to be very professional, and efficient. They were honest about our tires and whether they needed replacement. I know a bit about cars and would recommend them to a friend. They are very reasonable with their pricing.

They’re amazing! Unfortunately I bought a used car with a lot of issues, and took it to a bunch of terrible shops until I found Don’s. I’ve been to so many other mechanics who tried to oversell me on stuff or take advantage of me knowing very little about cars, and nothing like that ever happens here. I come here a lot and they’re always super fast and give me rides to and from the shop. They’re also really nice and take time to explain in detail what’s going on with your car, and why. Definitely recommend!

This is a great place of business. Chris and his colleagues are friendly and professional. Routine oil changes here are a breeze, from booking an appointment to the quality and timeliness of the labor. I never feel pressured to do anything with my vehicle I’m not comfortable with. Chris has taken the time to discuss the technical side of maintenance with me and show me first hand the work they’ll be preforming. I honestly feel great giving Don’s my business.

Chris is the best. Ive never gotten such friendly and fast service at a car shop before. Its truly full-service; they will address just about any issue including ordering tires for you. I trust all of their recommendations and have gotten great deals including them doing minor work for free. Im moving out of the neighborhood and I will still bring my car back to Chris for service. Their personal touch makes a huge difference.

Highly recommend. Chris is friendly, attentive, explains everything well, and is honest and reliable. Don’s Auto provides timely service and there is plenty of stuff to do in the neighborhood while you wait for your car. 10/10!

Don’s Auto helped me out in a pinch. On my way back to Murrieta from a wedding in Westlake Village, I ran over a ladder in the carpool lane, which I was not able to avoid without causing an accident. When running through the ladder the driveshaft dampener separated from the rear driveshaft. I needed to drop the driveshaft to get the dampener off, but I did not have the tools to perform the task. I found Don’s through an internet search and headed over. Cars were stacked up in the parking lot and they were obviously busy. I talked to Chris at the counter, explained my situation and he said he would see if they could look. 10 minutes later they cleared a spot in their parking lot and started on my truck, which took them approximately 15 minutes to complete. I was on my way within in an hour of the incident.In addition, I went into the office to pay and Chris said there is no charge. I wanted to pay for their services, helping me out in a pinch and pled my case to let me pay. However, Chris insisted that the job didn’t take long, and they were happy to help me get back on the road.From my experience, Don’s is an honest, helpful, and ethical auto shop. This shop is a little gem in LA.

Ive been coming here for years and recommend their services to everyone. Chris is always careful to explain every step of the process, what parts are needed, where hes sourcing it from, and breaks down the cost. Im grateful to have found an honest and knowledgeable mechanic in the neighborhood!

Many many friends recommended Dons to me when I moved to the area, and now I know why! Chris was super friendly and helpful. I got an appointment for an oil change the next day, and it was fast and thorough. He explained every step to me, and they even reattached my front grille for no extra charge. I will definitely be taking my cars there from now on.

I have a 2007 Lexus 350 ES. For the last two years, Ive been taking my car to Dons Auto Repair to get serviced. The service is always great, and the mechanics and tech always have done an excellent job on my car. I highly recommend Dons Auto Repair to anyone who has a Toyota or Lexus. There prices are great, and you will get the same service that any Lexus/Toyota dealership will give you.

Dons Auto Repair CA are great mechanics. In one instance, they have gone at great lengths to obtain a small electric clamp from BMW SF that BMW would not sell otherwise. One repair took a couple of runs - but they were patient and thoughtful through the process.The wait time for an appointment has been about a week or so. Overall, the service, expectation management and communication are very good. Recommended.

Always happy and satisfied with their service. And Vic and Shane provide, not only top professional, quality service, but are very personable and friendly. I have lived in the Eagle Rock area for 62 years. I have used various auto repair shops in Eagle Rock and surrounding areas. The service I receive at Dons has kept me returning to them for the past 10-12 yrs. Good to know I will never have to look for another qualified and honest repair shop again.

Dyrness Automotive in my opinion is the best Automobile repair shop in Glendale, we have always been treated fairly and with great courtesy, extremely satisfied with the quality of work, you will never be desapointed or cheated at Dyrness, if you have any car problems is not other place to go but Dyrness & the best Crew .:)

They charge an arm and a leg to do the bare minimum. They do complete the work on time and make sure it is completed. Great communication. I typically take my vehicle to another vehicle shop but about 16 miles away from home. Their work is awesome. This time around I wanted to try a local shop. I went with this shop due to the reviews. Again all great services but definitely over priced for the work being done. They probably go above and beyond if you are a regular. For us first time customers expect to pay a lot.

Robert is one of the most helpful mechanics Ive ever had, hes always very prudent and fast with repairs Ive needed, always gets back to me within a couple of hours of calling. Robert is one of the few people I trust with getting repairs done to my car, quickly and at an extremely reasonable cost.

Booked my Honda Element in for a 100k mile service. Stacey and his team were courteous, I even forgot to hand over my keys and he sent a driver to come pick them up, and gave me upfront estimates for various scenarios. After inspection he explained to me thoroughly what would be done to my vehicle and why. I trust their opinion and am really glad I found a shop where my car and wallet are in safe hands.

Originally I had a good review but as I drove my car the next day after the repair I noticed a huge decline in my acceleration, and the car was just proforming poorly when I open the trunk I saw that they disconnected the piping from the air intake I took so they can change a fuel pump they shouldnt have been near thatOn top of that I have clips in my trunk that keep the back panel attached 6 out of the 7 clips are Missing the only thing holding the panel up was the clip that attaches to the topTrusting your mechanic is very important I have zero trust in these guys theyre trying to cause problems in my engine so I go back and pay more, and they lost parts of my car exteremly shady business watch out when you bring your car here they might screw with something else so you have to bring it back

Broke down on my to my sons water polo tournament in San Jose from San Diego. Two other shops wouldnt help too busy. Needed to replace the tensioner assembly and serpentine belt ASAP. They got me back on the road in a timely manner and did the job for less than they originally quoted w/ a labor warranty. Great jobs guys.ThanksG. JohnsonSan Diego

10 years in Highland Park and nothing but trouble trying to find a honest and qualified mechanic, only to find liars and idiotic mechanics - once had to redo the rack and pinion steering 3X (Abduls Automotive - Fig and Ave 50). Well so far I like what I got at Dons. Better price than what Google told me it would be - and done in 4 hours (WOW!). The way it was I thought I would have to pay double and lose the car for 3 days at least! If it stays the way I expect Chris and the guys will have a customer for as long as the California DMV allows me to drive!
