I recently purchased a used car and took it over to Brian Woods Automotive for a full check-up. I dropped it off after hours, left the key, and asked them to change the oil, check the brakes, and go over the entire car to make sure it was safe to drive. When I called the next morning, they had already gotten started. The oil change was done, they told me the brakes were in perfect condition, and that the car overall was in excellent shape. The only thing they recommended was new windshield wipers. I truly felt they were extremely honest, which is hard to find these days. They could have easily suggested unnecessary repairs, but they didn't--and that says everything about their integrity. Everyone there is so friendly, and I've taken other cars to them in the past with nothing but great experiences every time. I wouldn't trust another mechanic more than Brian Woods Automotive. Keep up the great work--you guys are the best! read more

Thank you, Jim, for your guidance and outstanding service whenever we have car issues--whether it's a simple oil change, routine maintenance, or a major repair. It's reassuring to know we can count on dependable, timely service delivered with such a positive and pleasant experience. read more

Had made an appointment to have the front end of my wifes car checked out for an estimate. One of the mechanics hekkped out by doing an inspection and actually told me my car was OK. He did give me an idea of what the cost would be but stated that the dealerships recommendation to have the bushing replaced was not yet needed. He also told me what to look for or hear that would be signs of when it would need to be repaired. This saved my $1500 for the time being. Although I may need to have this done in the future I feel confident this is the place I will come. Honest service is great. read more

Fantastic experience at this repair shop. They helped me in a pinch when my 2022 Acura had sudden failure, were extremely honest and accommodating and helped get me back on the road quickly. My mother also had a great service experience with their team earlier in the week with her 2025 Prius. I would 100% recommend this repair shop to everyone! read more

Great service and competitive pricing too! They fixed our car so quickly, thanks everyone!

Jim and the whole staff are amazing. My car was not an easy or fast fix yet they took the time and effort needed to correct the problem. The front desk staff is also very polite and great at relaying messages that needed a return call. I would trust Jim, Wyatt or any of their mechanics again with any of my cars. Thank you! read more

First of all, DON'T think twice about going to Brian Wood Automotive. If you want a shop that is honest, the mechanics in this shop were the best. They made sure I was able to drive my truck back home. Long story short I got stranded 35 miles away from home, not knowing where I was and what to expect with my truck. I called Brian Wood automotive and they took my truck made me feel like I could trust them right off the bat. I truly appreciate everything they did. From getting it fixed and later having to go jump start my truck four miles away because a cable went loose. It was definitely quite an experience but happy I was able to get my truck safely back home thanks to the help from everyone in Brian Wood Automotive. They truly value their customers and the work they put into each vehicle. I truly appreciate you. read more

Great service and communicates issues well. I feel well-informed when fixes are necessary.

Had a check engine light go on and I stopped by on a Friday. They took a quick look at it and said bring it in on Monday and they took care of it very quick. The pricing is fair, but I trust their honesty. They've been a mechanic for 17 years AAA rated. It's a good quality shop. read more

No one happily visits an automotive shop with their car. It's always out of desperate situations for someone to fix the problem. I was so grateful to call them and speak to Wyatt who helped me right away over the phone with solid advice. He was also very responsive via text and reassured me that they can try to fix the problem. He even provided me quotes for services I was requesting. My car wasn't driveable and I had to pay for it be towed so I appreciate that he was able to help me over the phone and provide solutions before I towed it to them. I needed my rims to be repaired and to put new tires on. I sent Wyatt pictures of my tires and he was able to get the right person for the job to repair my rims. They were able to make the job a lot affordable (repair the wheels and make them look good) than if I were to have them replaced at the dealership. They also allowed me to get the tires I wanted and bring it to them. Most importantly they didn't make me feel less than for being a woman and taking care of the problem. Jim explained to me what he found out about my suspension during alignment and after I picked up my car, Wyatt told me if I'm having a problem I can always come back and they can connect me with someone if they need to. Thanks guys! read more

Good service! Repaired my tire for good price and was kind enough to check if my tires needed rotation. I told them to use their knowledge as I don't know much, rather than do do the rotation for an extra buck, told me that I could hold off for a sec. read more

Brian Wood Automotive - 07 Tacoma - Auto Repair Near Me - Glendora, California

Brian Wood is excellent. I arrived before they opened early on Monday morning to drop off my car because I found an oil leak on Sunday. They were able to inspect my car, get the part, and have it ready by 1pm the same day! Thank you so much to Ana who picked me up and had me back to work quickly. I only take mine (and my wife's) to Brian Wood Automotive! read more

Two words that best describe Brian Wood Automotive staff: Honest and Trustworthy. You will not find better vehicle service mechanics than Jim and his staff. I recently brought my son's car here after it randomly died out twice in two days. The next day I received a call from Jim saying the car was ready. It turned out to be a minor issue. The car hasn't had any issues since. Thanks to Brian Wood Automotive. I highly recommend. read more

They broke the alternator belt dummy tension bolt. They forced the new belt on causing it to stretch. Eventually the stretched belt slipped caused noise when the air condition was used. read more

Called and made an appointment, the desk lady was extremely friendly and funny! The price was so much cheaper than the dealer by 200$!

This has been a terrific experience to find an honest and dependable automotive repair shop for my car. The first repair was to restore the broken tire as a result of hitting a pot hole. The shop also conducted the search for additional issues such as servicing and brakes. But the most important issue with my car was a nagging problem of lurching from a standing start. My usual mechanic denied there was any problem, even after test driving. Brian Wood Automotive made the effort to recognize the problem. The repair was a simple pipeline to the transmission that caused the problem. I highly recommend this repair shop, it is honest and reasonable cost for repair. Hal read more

Been coming here for roughly 6 years now.. since moving to Glendora... I feel very lucky and fortunate to have found them, and even better they're 2 min from my home.. they have always given me a-ride home even though it's literally down the street, even when they're busy.. I really appreciate that.. They are extremely honest, trustworthy, and I am more than happy to give them my business and refer my friends and family... Thank you. read more

If you want honesty and integrity, this is the place to take your automobile. Been going here for years with all of our cars and they've treated us very well. Not the lowest prices, but worth it to have peace of mind. They also give a 2 year warranty on many of the repairs (I'm guessing not on brake pads, etc). A friend of ours had taken his car there many years ago and had a few repair items on his car. He threw in a non-operational air conditioner (even though it was working fine) to test Brian Wood's integrity. They fixed all the issues and told our friend that they couldn't find anything wrong with his a/c. Our friend went there ever since until moving away a few years ago. read more

Took my 2010 Nissan Altima In after the dealer was charging me $2100 for a power steering pump leak. Spoke to Jim and he called me saying it was not the power steering pump leaking but the rack and pinion. Took car of my car at a great price and will be back again when needed as they are honest and reliable. read more

These guys went above and beyond to help me out with my car troubles. My car shut down a block away from their shop and I was stranded in Glendora. Jim took me and my car into their shop and scoped out the issue for me. Amazing service. Thank you guys read more

This is the first time I've ever gone to a mechanic shop, and the price I paid was significantly lower than what I was quoted. Honest, reliable, communicative staff here. Jim helped me tremendously. My check engine light popped on, I had it tested at AutoZone, and then immediately brought it over, and they fixed the issue with no problem. Highly recommended. read more

Exceptionally pleased with the service I received. Very knowledgeable and honest They explained everything they did to my car and it works great now. I highly recommend Brian Wood for any auto service you need. read more

I've never had so much trust in a mechanic/automotive shop as I have with the people at Brian Wood. They are honest, knowledgeable, and have high integrity. The first time I brought my car in was for a broken AC system in 2018 - it was to get a second opinion. While the first shop quoted me thousands of dollars to replace the entire AC system, Jim at Brian Wood discovered it was a simple tube replacement and saved me time and money. This is the only place I take my car for maintenance and repairs. They've also referred me to an equally honest and great body shop contact. I recommend them to all my friends and anyone who asks for a trusted mechanic. read more

I found myself on the Mt Olive offramp in Duarte with a badly smoking engine and in need of a ride and a motor rebuild. AAA took care of the ride and BWAutomotive took care of the flawless rebuild. Within 2 days I saw the block broken down cleanly with surgical precision, and they sent me progressive pics of the boil-out, the cylinder work and the finished product was ready within the 7-9 day period promised. They beat the quoted price of a USED MOTOR with 90k (at another shop), and this was for a NEW REBUILD with an inclusive 24K/24 month warranty (I needed to pay $480 for that at the other shop). All in all, a clean, honest shop-hard working and no surprise fees or excuses. I'm a customer for life as far as I'm concerned. Now, my '06 Scion xB can continue our 11 relationship for maybe another...? So, thanks again... read more

Brian Wood Automotive - Auto Repair Near Me - Glendora, California

I wish I had a shop like Brian Wood Auto near my home because I would definitely be a regular customer here. I work in Glendora and surrounding areas and drive for my job as a home health professional. Battery warning light came on and I knew right away what ever juice I had left in my battery was all I had left to drive before getting towed. I knew of this shop just from driving past so many times, and luckily was only 0.2 miles away from them. Made it in and was able to get the car diagnosed right away, and just as expected a new alternator was needed. Being that I don't live locally, I was a bit more worried about my car being stuck here until tomorrow or having to stay late for it to get finished up as it was already 2pm. They were able to pull the part, install the new one right away and I was out the door in just an hour...which is simply amazing. I was expecting to be here at least 2-3 hours. I HIGHLY recommend this business. Thanks for taking care of your out of town customers! read more
