The best. Ruben and Nicholas at Lincoln Auto Electric do not shy away from any problem, big or small. They simply fix it and always at the right price. I have had RVs, trailers, sports cars, regular cars and very old cars from the 60s and 70s all repaired over a 18 year period. They never failed me once and will always, and i mean always go the extra mile for you.

I’ve been taking my cars there for 30 years. Good honest shop operated by a fine honorable man and his sons.

Was referred here by a friend and ended up having a very pleasant interaction with all staff members. My check engine light was on, and Id been told by other oil change service companies that I was leaking oil pretty badly, so I thought it was time to finally take it to a mechanic...Ruben was very prompt, courteous, and personable and literally just did a diagnostic on the spot with me answering all questions I had. He was also very proactive in providing information on the health of my car and was very honest. It ended up being a minor leak that didnt really need attention right then and there, so I left without needing any service.I will certainly be going back for future oil changes and any service for my car. Thank you for what you do guys!

Very honest. Very fair. Gave me better price than other mechanics. Family business! Father and two sons :)

The owner Ruben is just a mechanical genius while remaining very fair on pricing and personal with his service. He is very trust worthy and if you tell him you think the engine needs replacing he finds out something much less expensive can be done and it works!! Really honest and you see the Santa Monica BMW and Mercedes mechanics come in with problems they cannot solve to ask the Mastro Ruben on how its done!!! Cannot beat this place!!!

Id just like to throw my two cents in here about the exceptional customer service experience I had at Lincoln Auto Electric.My 1971 vw transporter started backfiring on the 10 freeway on my way to the beach. I pulled off on the Cloverfield exit in Santa Monica. I wasnt sure what options I had though I had heard about Rubens shop on Lincoln from various people in the previous few months.Aiming for Rubens shop, I putted the car down Pico towards Lincoln when the backfiring became too much and the engine died. I stopped there on the corner of Euclid and Pico with the engine hood open and indicator lights blinking.No more than a minute past when folks started jumping out of the cars and asking me what was wrong. This one guy Tom had a Westy and ran through the usual vw engine suspects. His suggestion was to take it to Rueben on Lincoln, a very reputable auto mechanic who always helped Tom with different things on his Westy m. I said thanks and thats where I had planned on going.Another local named Jaime came by. He had a 1961 bug and has been working on VW engines since he was a kid. He got his toolbox out of his car, while his wife waited patiently. We spent the good part of an hour cleaning spark plugs, checking vacuum and oil leaks, then we realized the distributor points in the cap were chewed up by the rotor alignment. Jaime said best bet was to take it to a guy named Ruben on Lincoln who had taught Jaime everything. I said thanks, thats where I was going to begin with.I pushed the bus down Euclid, right on ocean park and around the corner of Lincoln into the shop where I was greeted by Nicholas, Rubens son. He told me unfortunately Ruben was out of the shop for the duration recovering from a surgery. I left the keys with them and they would call me.The next day I received a call from Nicholas. I had recently got the engine rebuilt and according to him they did not install a deflector plate, so the engine was bleeding oil. Secondly, the distributor was indeed screwed up. I agreed with the price and told them to go ahead to fix the issues.The next day I received another call, this time from Ruben. He called from his home while recovering from surgery to tell me that the problem was bigger than Nicholas anticipated. The third valve had dropped into the engine and required a new rebuild. He suggested ways to get money back from the business that rebuilt the engine. He said there was no rush to make a decision. I asked if they would please refrain from what we originally agreed they would fix, which he said of course.I must say this is exceptional competence seldom seen these days. I was blown away with the honesty and integrity.Nicholas and the team was very helpful when the AAA tow came to the shop. They didnt charge me anything and were over the top gracious and respectful. Top rated!!

Amazing people they are always so great with our frequently sick Xterra.

TL;DR up front: Professional, friendly, trustworthy, and priced right. Absolutely recommended for automotive electrical work, and probably anything else you care to throw at them.I wanted a small electrical job done on my 2001 Corvette, reverting from the previous owners hideous LED license plate illumination strip to the original inboard lights, but couldnt find any auto shop that wanted to touch it. The dealership wanted a stupid amount of money, and told me Id have to come in twice because they didnt keep the right bulbs in stock.Finally someone referred me to Lincoln Auto Electric, and I couldnt be happier. They took the job, no problem, got it done with no fuss and in a single morning, and they charged me way less than the dealership quote. They gave me good, clear advice about the few other questions I had, and didnt try to upsell me on anything or talk me into anything unnecessary. I would go back to these guys in a heartbeat.

Reuben Nicholas Alex work hard reasonable tates

Straightforward guys. No bullshitFast and thorough

Fantastic service, fair price, best people, especially the owner!

Nobody beats their experience when it comes to classic cars, been going here for 18 years

Rubin is a no nonsense kind of guy.he tells you up front whats the problem then he gives you options what you want to do

We used Ruben for a number of years. Then he developed the nasty habit of quoting one price and increasing it dramatically without any authorization. He did it to me, so I stopped going to him. My daughter remembered to tell him that he could not exceed the amount he estimated without talking to her. When she went in to pick-up, Ruben had doubled the charges. Taking advantage of a young girl. This is the kind of thing that gives unscrupulous mechanics their bad reputations.

They are honest and do not overcharge for their services. I only trust them to work on my car.

Best Mechanic! GREAT service!

Good services nice people!!!

Great place
