    Been taking my Lexus to Danny the last 5 years for Brakes, oil changes, and spark plug service!
    Chris G.

    Been going to Danny's for the last 10 years. He is a VERY HONEST mechanic! Recently went to service my Lexus thinking it needed new brake pads but after inspection Danny assured me that my brake pads still had a lot of life left! Saved me money ! Really good pricing w Danny compared to other local shops! Support good mechanics!

    My engine was flagged for 'leaking' 'spillage' and I went to Danny's auto to get it fixed. Supposedly they fixed it, same day, about an hour or more for it to get done. $127.50 in labor to remove and replace "parts" as they say. $49 for the actual part. I paid because of good reviews and I know things take time, I don't argue with that, it's a car. Till this day when I get my oil change it still gets flagged so I don't know what the point was of going to this auto location. I also asked Danny about fixing my a/c because it says in his information they can do it and Nope. He said they don't and referred me out. What a waste. I wouldn't say don't come here because there's great reviews but for myself I am not returning. Best of luck to everyone else truly.

    Service here at Danny's Auto Service is excellent. He is extremely friendly and does excellent work. This is my second car that he's worked on. He always has my car ready for me on time.

    Danny had me take these photos so I had them to reference if future issues occurred. He's so thorough

    Before coming in, my check engine light had been on for months. I had an extremely hard time finding a mechanic I could trust, that wouldn't charge me to the moon and back and was honest. I called Danny after a friend referred me and he was able to see me that same day. He walked me through each and every step, made sure I understood exactly what the problem was and assured me I was more than welcome to come back if there were any issues. I can't imagine going to any other mechanic. "Highly recommend" is an understatement.

I came by on a weekday, and it was kinda busy! So plan accordingly. Luckily, it wasn't too bad, and the staff worked pretty fast. For someone who doesn't know about cars, I feel like this is a good place to tell everyone that you should definitely get a 2nd opinion before having anything besides oil done on your car here. I don't know enough to know what my car needs, but I think it's just a safe way to go for these kinds of things. The staff is super helpful, and the service was great! Can't complain there! There's really not much else to say! Easy to get in, easy to get out, and I didn't feel like they were too pushy on trying to upsell me on things. They were just doin' their jobs, so kudos to them. Especially with the groupon, the value proposition is pretty high. I think the only way to do it cheaper is to do it yourself, which I neither have the time nor skills for!

They took the Groupon code, and told me that is just a $34.20 credit toward the cost of the oil change, but they would give me a discount off the full price of the oil change. To be clear, there was no confusion about the Groupon. I authorized a $20 upgrade to synthetic oil because, as I told the employee, I knew they likely did not make much off the Groupons. The employees who did the work were friendly and courteous. The oil change was well done. It was quick - everything about the experience was good except for the bait and switch. This is clearly something they do, so I didn't bother get into an argument with another manager about a refund, or call them the next day - it's not worth the headache. I just won't go back to that location and hope to warn others. It was really disappointing because I've had repeated fantastic experiences with the location on 17th St. in Costa Mesa.

    Hello everybody. This is a PSA to anyone thinking about coming here…read more This guy has an absolute lack of honesty and carelessness attitude towards his work. I had taken in my 2014 Lexus ES350 for a simple drain and fill. For context the vehicle has 130k miles and has had this service done 2 times and this was third. Vehicle has been maintained very well right. I had noticed the process was absurdly fast. I asked if he did all leveling procedures and ensure it was done the proper way. He assured me he tried and he's done this before by skipping these steps and it would make no difference. Keep in mind ive done this 2 other times and it can only be considered done with proper leveling. Anyways, I immediately notice super harsh shifting, erratic gear selecting, and a terrible jerk in the transmission. I had again called him and asked if he did the leveling procedure and if it was done correctly his response disregarded the need for a proper level because "this was his way of doing it". So I brought it to him to drive the vehicle, he had stated in verbatim "man these cars are terrible " "the transmission are known to go out by 60k & 80k miles" "yours is most likely on its way out". "It's the clutches not the fluid" "I am fairly experienced with this car and the and U660E. What he stated was absurd but there is always a possibility. So I took the car to the dealer for a mature vehicle inspection FROM LEXUS. my report had said the transmission was overfilled and would be 390$ to completely redo the service. I finally took action and had called to drain the excess fluid with a diagnostic tool and proper leveling procedure BUT BEFORE I NEEDED TO CONFIRM. I called the guy and asked if the leveling procedure was done and he said yes but it's not necessary. I finally got over the lying and mentioned I'd taken it to the dealer and they had mentioned it being overfilled and I said I don't want a fight I just need to know my next steps on how to solve this issue and I need honesty to correct whatever had been done. He finally admitted to having skipped the leveling procedure. Here is a picture of the amount of excess fluid. Absolutely terrible lack of honesty and complete carelessness in his service as a simple but tedious step which could have been avoided caused me to waste time and have to replace the fluid.

    I dropped in for help diagnosing an inconsistent transmission issue on a rainy day, and the team…read morewas so welcoming & helpful. The owner took me for a test drive around the block to talk through the concern, had multiple sets of eyes look under the hood, and allowed me to stay in the vehicle while they worked so I could stay out of the rain. Ultimately, they didn't have what they needed to fix the issue, but they gave me the confidence I needed to take my car into the dealership for service. 10/10 would recommend for young women who are looking for friendly and honest service.
