Felix was amazing. Help me with my smog check. Very polite and helpful. Made my trip today short and simple

My alternator went out and I was thankful to find Sal and his shop. Had my van towed in and they took care of it and had me back on the road the same day. Great services and prices are fair and reasonable. Definitely give them a call. read more

Recent college grad who needed a car and was recommended to talk to Sal (who runs the shop) if I had any car-related questions. Turns out he had some cars for sale as well and let me test drive them. Sal was transparent and helpful with everything he said and I ended up getting an old Toyota Avalon. I was a bit skeptical at first since the car had so many mikes, but I've been using it for several months now with no issues! read more

Place is convenient and reasonably priced. Fast service. They will make suggestions on what you need but won't pressure you to get it done. My go to place for oil changes. read more

The owner Sal has always helped me out in emergencies. My daughter's car broke down and was given a high quote from a big repair shop. Sal repaired it fast and for less. Thank you again Sal . read more

Great price. The boss and workers are nice and helpful. Not only do they do the requested task, they go further and check other parts of the car and will notify you if they've found something wrong which you didn't notice. They helped me check my issue with transmisison and I didn't realize that. Also, when my fuel evap pipe was split in half, they helped me negotiate for the cheapest price for a new pipe. They are honest, caring, and great people to work with! read more

Always take my cars here and they know exactly what to do. My oil changes are quick and no their recommendations are spot on!

I've taken all three of my cars here for their smogs, my 4Runner failed due to an exhaust leak and a catalytic converter that "didn't match the numbers of the DMVs website" I had the exhaust leak fixed by D&D, no issue there. Retested after the new exhaust, still failed. Took it to a shop that specializes in catalytic converters only for them to tell me and show me, that the catalytic converter on my 4Runner did match the DMVs website, took it to their smog guy and passed. I will not be coming back here again. I'm glad I got a second opinion and didn't spend an additional 2/300 dollars for a new catalytic converter (that I would not have needed)on top of the 150 I had spent for the exhaust and initial smog check. Get a second opinion or avoid coming here all together. read more

Sal is the best he knows how to make you laugh and the customer service is great he is friendly and good to be around

I took my pilot and fixed it up really good. Sal is my car's doctor. I trust him with my life. I don't want to make this sound official but he walked the extra mile for me when it comes to customer service. I will never take my vehicles anywhere else. Thanks bro. And good luck with the new renovations. The shop looks soooo good. read more

I recommend this smog check station due to their reasonable prices and prompt services. I recommended this place to my neighbor who called a place in La Habra where she had to make an appointment. I told her to drive down the street to D &D and she didn't need an appointment. She was hesitant at first but checked it out and was extremely happy with the service and price. No waiting and no hassle. No one likes smog testing except the State of California but D & D Automotive makes it as pleasant as possible. read more

They didn't help me and tried to bamboozle me out of $90 for just looking at my 74 VW bug because I brought it in after it wasn't starting when the battery wasn't an issue. When I asked if he had a safe lot, Jack, a mechanic said they had cameras but gave me attitude about taking my hubcaps home with me. He proceeded to angrily take them off while the chrome sides of them bounced and scratched on the floor. What gives? I ended up giving AAA a call to tow me out of here after I had to pretty much take my key back from Jack who seemed upset I didn't want him touching my car anymore. I wouldn't come here ever again or tell anybody to. Jack in particular is rude and not a hospitable guy whatsoever. read more

Horrible, horrible parking! I went for a smog check. There were too many parked cars and it was hard to get around. The guy was kinda rude. He didn't give me a wait time or anything. He also told me to keep a window open "in case we get locked out" Seriously? After he told me where to park, I did for like 30 seconds and left. I didn't feel comfortable there. Went out of my way to a better location. Definitely not coming back for smog or car repair. read more

My mechanic tried an tried but couldn't figure out how to fix my 1995 GMC Van that had an engine service light on. The GMC dealership misdiagnosed the problem entirely. I was at witts end. Then I found D & D. I felt that​ Sahed, the owner was very honest with me and save me money too. AND they were able to fix the problem, and in fact fixed another problem with the idle control that no mechanic for years was able to fix and I just learned to live with the problem. If you want a mechanic you can trust, who really knows what he is doing, who want charge you more than is deserved, call Sahed! I did and I am soooo glad! read more

I have been going to D & D Automotive for my smog checks for close to 20 years...they never disappoint. They always accommodate even without an appointment...get done in a very timely and efficient manner...and, are polite, welcoming and friendly. Whenever I need these services done, they are the absolute "go to" business to handle what needs to get processed. A rare commodity in society today...a service that is a pleasure to work with and gets the job done well without hassles. read more

TL:DR Have another mechanic check their work. The basics might be overlooked. I've been going here for a few years now for both of my vehicles. You'll actually find a good review from me too. My last visit left a bad taste in my mouth. Had brakes done, along with several other maintenance fixes. Front brakes were squeaking and they told me the brakes on the back needed done too, along with the rear rotors (only the rear). So they did the work for a reasonable price amd sent me off. Not even 5,000 miles later, my front brakes start squeaking again. Took it to another shop to be safe and the front rotors were well beyond their minimum. The mechanic either didn't check them or didn't care enough to mention it. The brake pads were still not worn at all. Endangering my life and my son's life. I came in to bring this up and talked to the owner. With how dangerous this was, I felt the mechanic's labor is ALL in question, and asked for the labor to be refunded, not the parts. All he gave me was for the front axle brake job. I probably wasn't coming back anyways after this, but now it's official. Customer lost. read more

As a woman, sometimes it's hard to trust what a mechanic tells you, but not here, they've been honest trust worthy fair with pricing and consistent in everything they've done for all 3 of my cars. I've had my entire engine changed for my Fiat and constantly come for my oil changes and all break changes too. I recommend these guys to all the woman who are looking for a trustworthy mechanic! read more

Went to D & D Automotive to replace Transmission. Sal the Manager wanted to keep the car for a couple of days to make sure that it actually was the Transmission that was giving me the issue; he test drove it the first day didn't see an issue so he kept it one more day, and that is when he could tell that the issue was the Transmission he gave me an estimate and in a few days got my car back and have not had an issue now for a week. I love how Sal wanted to make sure that it was truly the Transmission that needed to be replaced and he stuck pretty close to the estimate as well I will definitely go back and recommend. Thank you, Rich read more

Sal and crew were very professional and great to work with. Definitely recommend them for your smog needs.

The guys here are very honest and a pleasure to do business with. Their prices are reasonable, they offer payment plans through snap. I had to have three things replaced in my car and was able to get it in right away and back the same day. read more

Great personal service. Our Hylander has multiple issues preventing smog certification. The owner and manager persevered to find and fix them with honesty and integrity. I highly recommend them for Smog repairs and certification. read more

Recently went to get my front window resealed. Good pricing and customer service. Definitely will be back

Great service and even better price ! The owner is very nice he took in my car to replace my brakes even though they were close to closing and I only waited about 45 mins . Will def be back here for any future needed repairs read more

Sal has been outstanding, honest and reasonably priced! All of our families cars are serviced here.

the employee tells me i passed the smog test but failed the visual inspection (after market parts). so i still get stuck with the bill, no pass, and he tells me i have a month to change the part or i forfeit my re-test All of this could have been avoided if he did the visual inspection first before testing it, and told me it wouldn't pass even if it clears smog thanks for nothing read more

Always take my car to D&D. Honest, reasonable, convenient location. Have recommended family and friends to D&D Automotive.

Good costumer services I took mi truck for services it was I 1971 Chevy they took good care off my truck and the price was good, sal really took good care of me and I didn't had to wait for long the mechanic really know how to take care of their costumers read more

I have used these guys multiple times, and they've always done a good job for a fair price.

Sal and Alonso were nice in the beginning and helped with a few issues with a car purchase and repair, but it is the customer service after you drive the car off the lot that means more to me. The average guy cant always find issues before buying a car and rely on their automotive expertise to check a car. I discovered various issues small and big after purchase. They did change a few bulbs with visor and gear shift for free(thanks). But, the gear shift wood plastic trim is cracked and the visors stay on. Also, unknown to me before buying the Volvo, the heater core was bypassed (easy to verify) which could have caused my son to crash as he could not see because the defroster not working (no heat). Alonso best excuse was that it was middle of summer when they got it and there was no need to check it for that point. Sal said he was going to get a Volvo expert to check the car but it was taking too long meanwhile the car is just sitting in the driveway. I found my own Volvo expert and had the heater repaired and the visors diconnected until its fixed. D & D repair and auto sales left me with a bad impression and I would not buy another vehicle from here or have a car repaired here as they appear not check the cars thoroughly before putting a car up for sale. I am very picky and I do have plenty of 5 stars reviews. I am generous to give this place a 3 star rating just for some help they provided and for trying. Moving forward, I am going elsewhere where we the customer are made to feel welcome and always right and not be engaged with a raised voice when we have an unresolved car issue after buying a car. It truly was a bad car buying experience from here but nevertheless, I wish them well. read more

NEVER taking my car here again!! Back in January my husband took our suburban for a SMOG only, when the mechanic took it to do the smog check, the mechanic was under the car, my husband asked him why he was under the car, he said there was a "leak" (no leak spills where found on our driveway before and after he came back home still to this day) my husband told him he would take it to his mechanic. Once smog was done and paid, my husband found a car piece inside his car so he took it back so they can put that piece back. Since taking the car there we've had SO many problems with the car, it turned off on my husband while driving, a few times. We had the battery checked by AAA and Autozone and battery was good. We had so many expenses like getting a two new batteries, alternator and having the car towed a couple of times. Finally we had an electrician take a look at it, he told us that the wires under the steering wheel were cut. This D & D smog was the last place my car got "serviced" after taking it there that is when all these problems started. I don't know if anyone elsde has experienced this or something similar after having their car service there but there is something truly shady about this place. Be careful, I would not recommend taking your car here NOT EVEN FOR A SIMPLE SMOG TEST. read more

Fast and great service. Friendly and not pushy. Smog check was 10 min and very reasonable. Will be back. read more

Wow, what an honest and professional shop. I went to three different mechanics to get rid of this noise that was driving me crazy. Previous mechanics wanted to charge lots of money to fix what they said the problem. This place did not charge half of what the other 2 places wanted to charge. They were courteous, fast and most of all honest. I trust this place so much, I would even recommend it to my daughter. read more

Brought in my camaro. Great service, and a really fair price. They do really good honest work here. Thank you D&D for the great service!

I need to get my 1998 Toyota Camry a smog certificate and the last time I had to do it the car didn't pass. I was referred to D & D Automotive by a Toyota deanship mechanic and I was over the moon happy that my car passed the smog. I did notice a window sign advertising smog check for $39.00, I was charge $50.00 and like the other customer probably because I didn't bring in the DMV renewal notice, I didn't ask I was to excited the car passed. Thank you D & D Automotive you are officially my new repair shop read more

Came here for my smog check! They are star certified! I was impressed how quick it was. It only took 20 minutes! Also really nice guys working here! read more

BEWARE! DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE! I made the worst decision possible when I decided to take my 2015 Audi A3 to D and D for a leaking oil sensor. Nothing could of gone worse(keep reading). The repair itself seems to be okay for now, however, it was everything else they did to my car that really showed how unprofessional and uneducated Sal's mechanics are. First off, I go to pick up my car and it's parked on the main rode. My car is unlocked. Why would you ever leave any car unlocked that you are deemed responsible for because your the one fixing it??!? So my charger got stolen out of my car and that's all his mechanics or someone walking by can take because, I took everything else out of my car and thank god I did. My tags I just put on a few weeks ago look as if someone definitely tried taking it off! My car was at this guys lot for 3 days! Cmon! The greasy grimy mechanic who worked on my car also put a popsicle plastic wrapping in my cup holder UPSIDE DOWN AND ALL THE GRAPE JUICE DRIPPED INTO MY CUP HOLDER. My driver seat floor mat was also upside down when I picked my car up. Why? Who knows the reason for their stupidity, but now there's grease/oil on my actual carpet of my car on the driver side. If they left my rubber mat in place then this would've never happened. I also saw grease/oil on multiple spots on my car paint! Worst of all was a scratch right next to two big grease stains that was not on my car prior to mistakingly taking it here, so I know they made the scratch. I attached photos for proof. Do not take your car here, the risk is too great. read more

Friendly, fast service! Said he'd been in this location for 20 years and it's not hard to see why. Pricing was fair and straightforward. He told me the price upfront and that's what it was. No surprises. Not to mention I was in and out in about 20 mins for a smog check and oil change! Faster than I've had for either ONE of those, but both? Well played. You've got a new customer. read more
