Where is the 10 star option because they deserve it. Honest, fair, reliable, dependable, trustworthy, and great workmanship. I live in Newport and my neighbor referred me to them years ago for my Prius that was out of warranty. Fast forward and I have been bringing all my cars even in-warranty vehicles bc the dealers are always recommending work or replacement and I get a second opinion from A&G that always tells me what's really needed or not. My YA daughter brings her jeep in as well and I never have to worry about them taking advantage of her. So many times the dealer tells her she needs XYZ for $$$ and we get a second opinion from A&G for a better price or get an honest opinion from them that the work isn't even needed. These guys truly care about their customers, are genuine, and always so professional. Service is timely with personal updates and automated texts when the work starts and finishes. Shout out to Christian for always taking care of me and my daughter. read more

A & G Imports is very professional and will not ever up charge you. It's been my experience with them that they are honest and always accommodating to get you in even if it's the next day. They do a great job on repairs without breaking the bank! read more

I initially found out about A&G Imports from neighbors on Nextdoor. A lot of people had great things to say about this company, so I decided to try them out. Their prices were literally about 50% less than the dealers! This concerned me at first, but then I looked up their reviews and realized that they're really good at what they do. They're a small family owned business and did an oil change and tune up for me. They also drove me home and saved me a lot of money! Happy camper here! read more

A & G Imports - Most of my neighbors on Nextdoor that own an import car recommend this company. - Auto Repair Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I am beyond grateful for having this place recommended to me. Not only are they locally owned and operated, but also are friendly, honest, professional, very communicative, fast, and efficient; these are qualities that set them apart from other shops. They were able to fix my ignition coil and spark plugs for a very reasonable price and were able to do so in a short amount of time. I highly recommend bringing your vehicle here; you will not be disappointed! read more

Michael and the staff here are all very helpful and nice. We have done several services here and friends we know use these guys and we are always treated right. They know what they are doing and they are fair and fast! I would recommend them to anyone!!! read more

I trust A & G-- I feel like that is the best endorsement I could possibly come up with after what I've been through with mechanics. My whole family takes their cars here and we always have a good experience. I had one issue, one time, after a computer mix up. They completely took care of it and won my loyalty tenfold. I recommend them to everyone. read more

What great shop this is. These men here are very loyal and respectful. They care for your car like it was there's. These men are quality.

OUTSTANDING !! DON'T GO ANYWHERE ELSE FOR YOUR CAR NEEDS OR PROBLEMS. I have been going to A & G Imports for years and have always been so happy. Everyone is so knowledgeable and professional.

Very friendly and helpful. Worked diligently to track down the correct headlights I needed and made every interaction with them a pleasant experience all around. Extra plus to Christian for being so kind and also explaining everything with a smile read more

Great local mechanics. This will continue to be my go to place for all car maintenance.

A & G Import Service has been preventing our possible car problems as well as healing our sick cars and vans for about 30 years. Their dedicated and skilled care have kept them running in top shape. My wife and I absolutely recommend them--with no reservations! We have found, time and again, that A & G's whole staff is top notch for both American and foreign vehicles: in their mechanical skills, attention to details, people skills, fair prices, and willingness to go above and beyond mere duty to meet their customers' cars' needs. A & G staff is to be commended for being such a model example of an A+ mechanics! Sincerely, Jim and Leah Stout, Costa Mesa read more

Honest, straight-forward, and quick service! I came in for a tire repair after being quoted a fair price over the phone. Was helped by Christian, and was in and out of the shop in less than 20 minutes. The staff was very courteous and respectful, and my tire is working just great. Thanks guys! read more

I have been a car guy most of my life, I know the difference between good auto repairs and great ones and service. When ever anyone of our vehicles needs service or something just fails, A&G is where they go. This is one of the only places where I don't worry sending my wife to with her car and being afraid of getting taken advantage of. Make the call, drop it off and pick it up totally repaired. read more

Honestly, I am disappointed. I was referred to A and G from a family member. My car broke down and I had it towed to A and G sunday night. Talked to them at 8:30 am on Monday and they said they would diagnose the car and give me a call. I hadn't heard from them all day so I called at 4:30 p.m. to get an update. They said that my car wouldn't start and my motor would need to be replaced. I came after hours to get my car towed to another mechanic for a second opinion, and I decided to try and out some coolant in and see if it would start. Well, sure enough, my car started right up. It just seems lazy to me. Everyone was very nice on the phone, but I am overall disappointed. I could have been a life long customer. I was on the hunt for a new mechanic, but unfortunately my potential business has been lost. read more

A&G Imports I was looking for a good, trustworthy, independent service and repair for my BMW. I am so glad I brought my car here as Mikhal was very professional and they took such good care of me and my car. No crazy surprise prices. My car was ready on time. This is my new car service business. Second experience matched the first. Kind people. My car is 8 yrs old and making strange noises plus low on fluids. I drove over w/out appt in am. I got a call midday saying car ready fixed, tightened things up and replaced all fluids. No charge. I love this place. read more

I've only taken my RDX to the dealer, 7yrs! Recently however, the warranty has expired and with it the "How are we doing" customer service calls with Q's & concerns about how can we be of better service, blah, blah, blah! Yesterday I took my RDX to A&G, highly recommend by a 10+ yr. customer. I was apprehensive & skeptical but needed to find a trust worthy place. It took just under an hour, (while I had dinner in a familiar place nearby). I need new front brakes within 1month/1000 miles, and referred me to a trust worthy AC place. Will follow up on that after the holidays. Courteous, polite, knowledgeable, and didn't charge me. YES!! read more

Took my Volvo there for brake repairs, after the dealer said a change was needed - with new rotors. They fit me in right away, looked at it, and showed me how I didn't need new brakes at all. Saved me $700!!!! Super friendly and personable as well. read more

I'll tell you what, my father has known this family for quite some time. My father has been taking his car to A & G for many years , including my sister, my brother in law, my brother and his kids, and myself. Always relied on the older crew that worked in the shop in the 80's /90's the father, his son, and the uncle experienced and oh so friendly people that you could rely on to get your automotive needs taken care of. Now, it's a different story. It must be an ego thing. I took my Volvo in for a repair that had to do with my radiator, and housing. A hose came apart off the thermostat which I noticed along with my father and brother in law. It leaked coolant everywhere and started to over heat. Had the wagon towed Monday afternoon for repairs. Ended up getting the wagon back on Wednesday. Drove it home no problem, and the next morning drive it to my parents house the next morning. Worked there for a while at the house, no problem occurred till I left my parents house to my friends home in Newport Beach. Right when I pulled to his house, indicator light comes on (coolant level low) go outside and look underneath my car, and there's radiator fluid everywhere. Mind you the repairs cost $368.00, called A & G and mentioned the problem saying "we didn't see any problems or a hose disconnected up top? (Near the thermostat) "we pressure tested it, and it was fine? Bring it in they say, had it towed back to their shop that evening, didn't get it back till Friday afternoon. Cost was $378.00 for a problem overlooked. Problem fixed? Picked up my daughter from school that afternoon after I got my wagon back from A & G , driving south on HWY 1, and all of a sudden the wagon started missing really bad, check engine light went on, huge cloud of smoke blew out of the exhaust, all of a sudden the wagon is blowing smoke and running improper like. $700 and some odd dollars later I've blown a head gasket. My 2008 XC70 AWD wagon ran like a top until A & G got to it. Called them up telling them my problem, their answer, "bring it in" I'm telling you my story is not the only story I have on these clowns. There answer to me for that problem was "you see pressure builds up and can cause that problem " after those clowns fixed the fakin problem?!!!! Over my dead body will I ever take my car for repairs at A & G imports again. They lost not just my business, but my entire family. My father was so up set, knowing the founders of A & G for many years saying they lost our business. This isn't the last you heard from me A & G. You know when there uncle worked there back in the day, he left there for a reason, because of the egotistical punk who runs it now . His name starts with an M. Good day gentlemen. You charged me for your Shite work of $700+ and now my problem will cost anywhere from $1500-3000+. You do shite work because of your inexperience. On certain makes of cars. Your not master mechanics. Your a problem now. read more

We have been customers for years, and we have kept our cars for far longer that we would otherwise because of Al and his sons (and his brothers before his sons joined him) - totally honest, reasonable, and professional. Just this week we discovered an additional reason during this covid-19 times: A&G Auto has quickly adopted all the hygiene protocols of the CDC. When we took our car in for repair on March 23rd, all touchable surfaces were wiped down with disinfectant both and after we picked up the car, protecting both customer and employee. Great job A&G Auto and we highly recommend them during a time when all of us must count on and follow extreme hygiene measures. read more

They have been my best friends for auto repair for 40 years. Honest in every way and always helpful and honest prices. I am a single woman, and that helps me a lot ! All the referrals I have given them have been very satisfied as well. A great shop. Thank You guys! read more

I have been going to A&G for maybe 20 years and I don't want to go anywhere else. They are honest, with good pricing, and always do quality work. It can be hard to find a mechanic you can trust, but I absolutely trust them. That's why I won't go anywhere else. read more

Very fair and honest people which is super important in this industry. Also, their prices are fair.

Love A and G!!! They have been fixing cars for my family growing up for years. My husband is deployed but usually does the oil change and maintenance. So when my van needed maintenance I came to them first. They never disappoint. They deserve 6 stars. Made my husband happy too knowing someone we trust was checking my van. Thank you A and G! read more

I have been going to A and G for years, great family business and they know their business well. They have saved me so much money and they can almost keep any car rolling. I found them about 6 years ago from a referral from a friend and yes I have put them on Nextdoor as place to take your car as well. read more

If you have an Audi, do your self a favor and bring it to A & G! These guys are the best! They have been fair and honest every time we bring in one of our Audi's. It's a family owned and operated business and they take pride in bringing their customers the best service. So happy we found them! read more

Honest, fair and reliable! I've had a great experience with my BMW repair; great and attentive customer service, free loaner car provided and their super nice service manager, David, followed up afterwards. Their work and parts are guaranteed with free warranty also! I will always go here for my import needs. read more

I chose the store based on review I read. I called Christian an he was very pleasant and setup an appointment. They did more than I expected in a professional manner and did oil change and fix an AC related issue with quality and very reasonable price. I will go back there again. Shervin read more

Took my car in for an oil change. They did it quicker than Sterling BMW and cheaper than all the other auto repairs around here. I asked them to change a bulb for me as well and they did it for a few $s. I'll be back to visit them. read more

These guys are great. I've been coming to them for about 10 years with my VW Vanagon, my Mini Cooper and 2 Mazdas. They are always looking for ways to keep the costs down and I've never had a repair done that didn't perform just as they said it would. Everyone that works there is friendly, knowledgeable and honest. As others have pointed out, there have been several times that they've sent me on my way with little or no money spent. My wife deals with them most of the time and they are very patient and courteous when she takes a car in for "making a funny noise". They are hidden a little bit on the east side of Newport Blvd just past 19th St. Look for the Midas Muffler sign and turn into the driveway just before Midas. It's worth the effort. read more

Just picked my car. Outstanding work done by Al and his crew! Got timing belt, water pump, and some belts replaced. I checked the brand of the parts, all top quality. Great, fast service done at half the price of other auto repair shops. read more

I am a believer. Brought my third car there...... Fixed it perfectly. Went above and beyond. I have all my friends go there. It is a breath if fresh air to have such honest and friendly mechanics. I got a quote from another auto shop on placentia ave 2 weeks ago. A & G fixed it for a fraction of the cost. Perfectly. Why go anywhere else????? Thank you guys! read more

A lot of friends recommended A&G. I've had bad experiences with the vehicles I have brought to them in the past few years. I think they are overloaded and have lost the attention to detail and customer service required to survive in this industry. From misdiagnosing problems, replacing the wrong parts, not calling when the vehicles are ready, and not performing all of the requested services... I can't say I will be back. All of the other reviews are 5 stars. I would encourage everyone to post their experiences; not just the friends/family or those related to the staff that are obviously biased. read more

I am an international student and I need to save as much as I can while keeping my car in good conditions. I've been servicing my Mustang for the last 1 and a half year at A&G and I am extremely satisfied with them. I know more than enough about cars to tell that these guys are honest, never pushing repairs that you don't need. The service is just perfect, quick and performed in timely manner. Their invoices are accurate and report everything they did or noticed while servicing the car. Highly recommended. read more

My family has taken multiple cars and truck to A&G and they have always done a fantastic job, whether it be an oil change or a big repair. They get things done in a timely manor. You can tell they have a passion for their work which makes their productivity level sky high! The best part is that they are family owned! read more

This is a family business. I have been taking my cars to A and G for well over twenty years. They are honest, fair and you and your vehicle will be fine. You might be surprised at the range of cars that are there for repair. read more

I never fill these things out, but I had to for these guys. A and G took great care of our truck's brakes. My husband was out of town who usually handles car stuff. All the guys at a and g took great care of our truck. I couldn't recommended them more. Also they did the job super quick. Thanks A and G you guys are the best. read more

I have to put a shout out for A&G Automotive on Newport Blvd. Near 19th. I've been taking my car there for mostly maintenance about 10 years now. Father and 2 sons, they are truly the epitome of integrity and great service. You can count on their honesty to service only what's needed, with utmost reliability, and not overcharge OR do anything unnecessary. Check out their other comments and do yourself a favor next time calling on them when your car needs anything. A&G, Al, Michael and Christian. :) 10 stars!! read more

A&G is the Greatest!! Alex, Armando & Al are honest and trustworthy providing high quality work for the lowest possible prices. I have been using them on all of my cars since the 80s !! This is unlike any other car mechanic I have ever known. They have sent me away several times without charging me a dime. Their work is thorough and the highest quality. Thank you, A&G read more

I've been bringing my VW bus to A&G for past 17 years. Never had a complaint and always great work at reasonable prices.
