They've been my mechanic for 4 years and have taken excellent care of me. They care about forming a relationship with the customer. They work fast and well. My first experience was when I scratched the side of my car on a pillar. Call Uber wanted $2000 to fix. G & R did it for $550. It looks perfect, since then, I've taken my car to them for everything. My car has 160,000 miles on it and still runs strong because of their incredible and honest work. Very lucky to have found them. read more

I was referred by a work colleague who swears by the car service here. I had recently moved back to California and was extremely nervous about taking my car to get serviced, but I trusted my colleague's recommendation and so glad I did. They do a fantastic job here! This is where I go to get my oil changed. I have also gotten a new set of tires here at a very good price compared to America's Tire. And when I go I talk to Jaron. He is very patient with answering all of my car questions. I usually call ahead and he's been able to accommodate and service my car. Definitely recommend these guys. read more

Rob and all the mechanics are amazing. So nice and helpful! I needed my rear brakes done and it was done so quickly. 110% recommend, I trust them with my car! read more

If I could give them more stars, I would. A friend recommended them a while back. I didn't need them at the time, but when I finally did, they delivered BEYOND. The first time was a super easy situation. The second time I used them my check engine light came on and it took a moment to finally figure out what the issue was. As soon as they did, they ordered the parts and had my car ready in no time. I never had to leave my car for days on end. I dropped it off in the morning and picked it up in the afternoon. Honest, thorough, transparent, very reasonably priced, and quick. They took the time to explain everything and never tried to upsell me, nor did they talk to me like I was an idiot. SO grateful to have found them. I cannot recommend them enough. read more

About a year ago, maybe a little more, they worked on my last generation Lincoln Town Car. Had them do the spark plugs and look at my suspension to get to the bottom of a wobble in the steering wheel. While I'm sure they did the spark plugs, I couldn't even tell you what they did to the suspension. Clunking was still there. Dude looked again, and after keeping the car for another day they recommended something like 3500 dollars worth of repairs. I wasn't born yesterday. Went to another shop and they deduced that the struts were no good. Car drove amazingly after that and no steering wheel clunking. But it wasn't thanks to this shop. While I'm glad some people seem to have a great time with them, I would have been out a huge chunk of change for no good reason if I hadn't trusted my gut and walked away. read more

These guys are the BEST! I had a small dent, almost small enough to ignore, but I wanted to see if anything could be done to make it less noticeable but that didn't involve a major project - no taking the door off or anything like that. They did an AMAZING job, pulling out the dent and touching up the paint. Its better than I could have hoped for - it doesn't look "factory new" but for the amount of work they did, it far exceeds my expectations. I would take my car there again in a heartbeat! Can you see the dent in the photo? I can't... read more

EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!! G&R gave me immediate service on the spot. I came to only get an Oil Change and ended up having a stripped Lug on my oil pan on my 2012 Chevy Volt. G&R Removed the Lug and Replaced my oil and nut immediately. Took a little work to get the lug off yet it was removed without damage to the oil pan. Also the filter was stuck, due to the fact the oil hasn't been changed in a while. read more

Active Motorsport - G&R Automotive Working on my car...Done a Excellent Job!!! - Auto Repair Near Me - Burbank, California

I had a great experience with G&R. I'd been borrowing a friend's car and unfortunately, reversed the car into a pole. My partner is a mechanic and we tried to mend it but it wasn't looking 100% great. I visited different Autobody shops to get quotes on how much the repair would cost. Most Autobody shops wouldn't do it because it was too much work for the amount of labor it'd take to repair. But, the person I talked to was willing to try and fix it because he knew I didn't really have any other options. I could've paid $500 for a brand new bumper for the dealer plus getting it painted or it would've cost $700 to have G&R do it. He told me to suggest to my friend to give her $500 for the damage (which I did). I'm just super appreciative of the time he took to actually research parts for me and the cost of things. He didn't have to do that. I returned to G&R a second time because the front headlight went out and just as they were about to close, the mechanic checked it for me. When I get my own car, I'll definitely be using this shop for any repairs! They were super friendly and helpful. read more

From the phone call I made to the end of the service Active Motorsport was amazing. Their professionalism and efficiency was impeccable. I cold called them on a whim and am so glad I did. I highly recommend. read more

I've been taking my vehicle to Robert and his team for nearly 4 years. Always transparent and reliable service. They've helped on a variety of repairs like dent/ scratch repairs in the body with my insurance; transmission issues; oil changes; Suspension swap; full break job and other jobs. read more

I was referred to them by Autozone and felt really confident going to them after seeing 5 stars on Yelp. It's a tiny spot so I almost missed it. Immediately Rob helped me, looked at the car thoroughly and gave me an estimate. He was very friendly, professional, and transparent. I had to keep my car there a lot longer than expected because we were waiting on my insurance, but they were very patient and understanding. Car looked great when I got it back. Very happy with the service and will definitely return! read more

I cannot begin to say enough good things about this shop and the people that run it. Not only do they do amazing work, on time, great pricing and the most honest and kind people to add to it!! This company deserves to stay in business forever! If you want to get great service from honest and kind people please take your car here, you will be so happy you did!!! read more

My car was having trouble shifting into first gear especially during cold mornings and just wasn't shifting the smoothest that it could, I've had a clutch issue before and that can get expensive so I wanted to be proactive. My friend recommended Rob as I've been in search for a trusted mechanic, little did I know they'd be so close to me! I took my car in and Rob and a few other guys at the shop took a look and immediately found out what the issue was, my clutch fluid line was leaking and I had basically zero fluid left!! They went ahead and checked out the rest of the car for free and also noticed my brake pads needed to be replaced and my rotors serviced. VERY fair pricing, and quick and amazing service. I didn't think my car could drive better than it already did. Thanks Rob!! I'll definitely be coming back for any other services. read more

Rob and his crew has the best service around. They will take care of your car as if it was their own. They will not let you drive it out of the shop without the full recovery of your car problems. I have been going to G and R for a couple of years now for my oil change and other mechanical issues with my Acura MDX. They turned my 20 year old car into timeless SUV. Thank you guys for making our family car last this long. I appreciate you all read more

I have never written a review before but I feel its necessary for this one. I have too many good things to say about G&R. I was told it was going to take 2-3 weeks to fix multiple huge dents and scratches on my car. I dropped my car off unexpectedly as I was going out of town for a week (the shop was super busy during this time and didn't really have room for my car). They had it fully fixed in 4 days like it was nothing! A job that would've taken multiple weeks at other repair shops. They also repaired damage to my door that was completely unrelated to the repairs we talked about prior. They had my car looking better than it ever has and that's not an exaggeration. I would recommend G&R to anybody and everybody. Amazing management and staff as well with great personalities that genuinely want the best for your situation! read more

They pretty much made a miracle happen! My Prius was perfect and pricing was very reasonable and service was excellent! Thanks guys! see you again soon! read more

My interactions with Rob at GR Auto has been consistently professional, patient and transparent. My story, at first blush, is a story of inconvenience but it concludes with satisfaction. Here it is. I took my car in to replace my side car mirror and upon calling several body shops, settled with GR Auto. Rob took care of it for a very good price which I was happy about. Once I started driving however, I realized the mirror dimensions were severely off. Whereas my left and rear view mirror showed that cars were closer, my right one that was replaced was far off. I knew I was susceptible to an accident so I called GR Auto to address it. I ended up calling three times which was a bit annoying. In their defense, perhaps they didn't comprehend the magnitude of the dimension discrepancy. Anyway, we settled on taking my car in during my third phone convo, and Rob spent the day replacing my side mirror to match my other ones. I took my car on a test drive afterwards and felt much safer. I left feeling satisfied. I think what significantly contributed to my satisfaction was Rob's professionalism. I recommend this shop! Check it out! read more

I had a car accident my friend recommended I take it to G&R Auto Repair and I met with Greg, he was so amazing! Very patient and did a great job. I would deff recommend for any car repairs, very trustworthy & great communication. read more

My favorite mechanic shop ever. Honest work, and friendly staff. Highly reccomend! Thanks to Rob and his hard working team. Ive referred this shop to many friends. This place has restored my faith for Mechanics. read more

I have always been reluctant and worrisome when it comes to having to take my car in for either simple maintenance or Any kind of body work because I would always feel like I am over paying. I was referred to G&R on Burbank BLvd and let me tell you everything from the actual repairing of my bumper, to the cost, to the service was hands down better then what I ever could have wished for. Not only the amazing work they did repairing my bumper, but how incredibly lower the cost was then I anticipated, and the service they provided by detailing my car after the repair, being incredibly reliable and friendly and the amazing customer service they provided by dropping it off to me after was just such a great experience. Robbie, the gentleman managing the place is extremely knowledgeable, professional, honest, and reliable. HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND‼ The only regret I have is not finding this place Sooner. I could have saved so much money, time, and no headaches if I found G&R earlier with my prior vehicles. 5/5 . Loved my experience here. You will definitely not regret this place. Thank you x100 Robbie and the fabulous staff at G&R for exceeding my expectations! read more

These guys are awesome mechanics... Very professional... Very friendly... They treat you like family and make sure your vehicle is in the best condition before getting it back... Thanks Rob and shop love you guys you're the best! read more

Honestly a genuine 5 star review. Happened to stumble on the shop roughly a year ago when I was having a problem and PepBoys (right next to them) said they couldn't fix it - and said that I should check out G&R Auto Repair. I already had the part and they fixed it in within 20 minutes at such a great rate. Since then I've been going back to them when my car has had problems and it's been nothing but the best service. Such a genuine and honest company - it feels like a shop my old man would own, but since my dad isn't out in Los Angeles to help me - these guys surly are the place to go to. Alway impressed every time I go and if you're looking for a new shop this (I believe family owned) shop is the way to go. read more

After calling around I got 3 appointments from different shops and received quotes. Since I had a brand new Lexus hey had to use all original parts were taking serious money so I was very happy when I came to GR auto group inc. Not only did I buy my car from them they also fixed my accident for me. They ordered me a rental car in no time. In times like this you can't afford to complicate matters more that's why I'm so thankful for Robert and his team. Thanks again guys. I will send you my friends and family. read more

My Mom started going to this shop 8 years ago when I think it was opened by Tom. She happened to be driving by when her car made a strange sound. Tom welcomed her and helped her out. He has always been so courteous, honest, fair-priced and knowledgeable about the problems with her aging car. Since Tom's retirement, my Mom continued her loyalty to this shop which was taken over by Rob, Tom's son. Rob is just as courteous, trustworthy, knowledgeable, fair and friendly as his father! When I got my first car, I only went to GR Automotive, and I've been going to this shop for over 5 years. I've referred all of my friends who agree that there is no better place to get your car serviced at a fair price with stellar quality. Huge thanks to Rob, Tom and their staff. It can be very frustrating to find a mechanic shop you can trust. I found mine here. read more

My boyfriend took his Chevy Trailblazer here to see if there was a cheap fix for the transmission. Unfortunately the only fix was replacing it entirely. They offered a good price, but we decided to sell the car, cause it had other problems as well. 5 stars for doing a full diagnostic and now charging us anything!!! I don't remember his name, but the man who looked at the SUV was nice, so great service too! Thank you so much! We will definitely be back in the future. read more

Took my car into G & R for a tune up and oil change on my BMW 528i, the dealer was charging me too much. The guys at G & R did the job for almost half what the dealer has quoted me. They did a very professional job and finish the job in a timely manner. I'm so happy that I have found a shop that can work on European cars and not charge the crazy prices that the dealer does. Thank you again for taking care of me and my car!! I will be back for sure, and recommend these guys to everyone! read more

The owner/mechanic, Tigran, is very sweet, but, unfortunately doesn't diagnose car problems very well. This is really important to be able to do, because, otherwise he's "chasing car parts" and never really getting to the root of the problem. I've spent over $1,500.00 with him trying to get to the bottom of my car's problem, and I can't afford to spend anymore. I've taken my business elsewhere. If he knows exactly what is wrong, or if it's an easy fix, like needing a timing belt replaced or new tires, he does a great job and at an affordable price, which is why I gave him two stars. But if it's something harder to figure out, that's definitely his weak point. My advice to you, is if you have a problem with your car that doesn't seem completely obvious as to what it is, take your car somewhere else. read more

I'm fairly new to Burbank and have been through a few mechanics, but never found a place as honest and reliable as this one. The people here are friendly and want you to have a pleasant experience. They gave me an ETA for my car and had it done on time as promised. They aren't after your money like some mechanics and will truly only tell you what is wrong with your vehicle. I also just found out they do anything from body work to transmission stuff, etc! read more

Rob and all the guys at G&R are the best! They've previously helped me with my axles, brake rotors and so much more on my '96 integra, and now they did such a great job putting on fog lights for my 2005 Civic. They always make you feel like part of the family and I highly recommend them if you want your car to be treated with great quality! read more

These guys made my fender bender into a thing of the past! Great work and they really knew how to work with the insurance company to quickly get the ball rolling on repairs. Very friendly and honest. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing any car work. read more

I came here regarding a certain noise coming from my car. They checked it and fixed it for me within 20 mins and gave my car a complete inspection as well. Turns out the problem was a few loose bolts and they didn't charge me anything. Since then I have trust in Rob and now I always take my car to him for service. They also did some body and exhaust modifications /upgrades on my Benz. Although everyone is friendly here, Rob is now like an old sincere friend. Their work is always professional and done well. I highly recommend them for your automotive needs. read more

Thank GOD for these guys. I had another mechanic start a motor swap for my 2000 Civic Si, and he took half my money and ran--my car was left on jack stands NOT running. He was also disorganized so there were parts and bolts and belts and hardware everywhere, so I basically had to collect all the jigsaw pieces and throw it into a box. I needed professional help so I flat-bedded my car to GR. They went through everything with a fine tooth comb, and despite the disorganization, they were able to sort through everything and even find mistakes that were made along the way to make it right. The previous mechanic even cut and damaged my wire harness, so they completely rewired the entire car! These guys were incredible and got the car running perfect, and thank God for them because their price was almost half of what most shops would charge me. Whether it's maintenance, full rebuild, or overhaul like mine, this is the place you can trust your car. Family owned and operated, you will feel at home. Make sure you tell them that "Matt sent you!" read more

I've been taking my car to GR for 5-6 years and I have only great things to say about them. Rob and the guys are always timely with repairs, accommodating, and most importantly, they're always fair and honest when pricing out repairs. Very straightforward and easy dudes to talk to. I always recommend them when people are looking for mechanics in the LA area read more

I work nearby and if you're familiar with the area, you know there are a few repair shops within a mile or two away from this hidden little repair shop. As a matter of fact there is one right next door to them, but a few of my coworkers have already gone to Tigran's place and have been completely satisfied with the service and price they charged them from minor repair, routine maintenance service, to major work. I initially told them I had rear suspension problems with my BMW 330ci. Tigran called me within 15 minutes and told me he didn't see any problems, so I ran over and he showed me the good rear suspension and the work on the front suspension I had the dealer worked on previously. He concluded that it was the rear shocks that needed to be replaced from my further description of the problem. A few more minutes have gone and he called me again, and told me that my oil was low, and he was correct. My oil signal had been going on and off lately but had been busy and lazy to go get an oil change, so I asked him if he could please add the oil change to my repair work. I asked Tigran if he could also do an alignment for me, and he said he would. A few more minutes have gone and I got another call from him telling me I didn't need an alignment! I know these are the things to expect from your mechanic, but these days, it's rare to hear a mechanic test driving the car first to see if you really need the work before doing the actual work! I received a final call from Tigran to tell me the total cost of parts and labor, and it wasn't what I was expecting. You see I had researched the price of the OEM shocks he had told me he was gonna use. (Of course he said I could go with a less expensive alternative but he also said he wouldn't recommend it and I agreed with him). For the price of two shocks online from a few online retailers of OEM parts, is the price I paid for all the work I described above! This is a no frills shop you don't see too often. You're not paying for the large waiting room, free coffee, leather couch, free wifi or luxurious restrooms. They have an office large enough to perform transactions, which is all I have always needed and I realized as I received and paid my final invoice from Tigran. Now, don't take my word without trying out G&R for yourself first, but I can almost assure you, you will write the same review as the others and I have written here on Yelp. This fine little hidden gem of a "Repair Shop" will be your go to repair shop as well. read more
