I made the mistake of getting a dui. But when I had to get the breathalyzer put in my car Fred got it out in really quick. He made sure I knew how to work the machine. And if there was any problems to call him immediately. The machine is now coming off and he's making sure I know what I have to do with the dmv as well read more

If I could, I would give Fred 10 stars!! He has been a godsend during a very difficult time in my driving life. I walked in there a year ago scared and embarrassed and he broke it all down and made everything understandable and reassured me there was light at the end of the tunnel. Fred and his team were always accommodating if I was running behind or in a hurry. They always took their time explaining the maintenance and repairs to me. The work was consistently excellent and very, very affordable. I could wax eloquent all day long about how lucky I feel to have found Fred and he will always be my first stop for things mechanical in the future. read more

hi, Fred, hope you remember me, I came to your shop on 6th of June around 2 pm to check honda accord before I buy it. STORY: We ride around the block, everything was fine, Fred checked a car visually, said that all good, when I asked: what do you think about front bumper, it seated not properly in some areas, what do you think, the car was in an accident? Owner (Art) said that it was repainted due to a lot of dents, Fred said that frame is Ok and there is no visible deformation, he checked the lights, interior, mention, that it some cigarette burn on the seat(thank you, it was pretty visible and I bring the car to you not for that). Finally he said that car was in a good shape, I payed $80 for this inspection. While I`m ride back home, I found that after 60mph strong vibration appears (left front tyre was another brand), in the nighttime I found that front right light is slightly working, when Im staying on the crossroad the engine start vibrating.I found another guy then, he checked a car and said that left part of the car was repainted, one of the front lamp was changed (one is glassy, one is blurry), he checked Carfax and found that car was hitted. So everything I was worried for is appear, but Fred is not saying about that, so it`s not a professional work and it shouldn`t coast anything, he even discuss something with seller on their (maybe Iranian) language in front of me and it looked like they know each other. And while first month of driving both of front fenders was throwed away by spining wheels on the freeway, it was scary, because i thought that tyre blown, so after fast repair before selling, seller even couldn`t put the fenders back and set it properly. read more

Ask for Fred! The owner is extremely professional, friendly, honest, and fair. I took in my BMW X5 due to an overheating issue. He ran a diagnostic, figured out there was a leak in my radiator and my thermostat was broken; then fixed the problem within a day. Fred explained every every step in the repair process and was reasonably priced. I highly recommend this place! I found my new mechanic and love this city even more due to all the great business owners I've been meeting. read more

He always found time in his schedule to squeeze me in whenever the device was giving me issues. Very kind and helpful mechanic. Will still be coming to his shop for my regular auto needs! read more

Fred is the definition of an "honest mechanic!". I've been going to him for a couple of years, and he has never once taken advantage or oversold me. I even referred my mom to him and she brings her Mercedes there now. He's not out to take your money -- he genuinely wants to fix your car and provide you with the best customer service possible. In addition, he knows German cars like the back of his hand. Highly recommended! read more

Fred works the office and the phone. Trustworthy, honest and fair. One of the cleanest auto facility I've ever seen. His employee's perform a top notch job also clean and professional in appearence and installation. If I had to choose a shop, (even if the courts didn't forced me to install an IID in my car!), i would STILL choose Freds. read more

Beware!! We took the car over there for a diagnostic and to clear the check engine light. We know what caused the light to come on. They looked at the car and ushered us into the waiting room. After about a half an hour of waiting we got up to check and the guy came in with bad news about how the engine is misfiring and the CPU has gone bad and he needs more money to figure out the problem. He said he did not pop the hood to check the readout cable. We get back in the car to take stuff home and switch out for my car, to discover the hood has been opened and a cylinder is purposefully ungrounded. The cap for the reader cable is also off and dangling by a connection cable. I've heard of places sabotaging cars to get more money but this was just the laziest sabotage I've ever seen. At least make an effort to hide your wrong doing! read more

I believe these kinds businesses are usually rated harshly but Fred really made an impression on me. He was very helpful and didn't mind going over every detail about the IID. Really nice guy and lived up to the other Yelp reviews given by other users. Recommend this place for others too. read more

Everyone should come here! Fred helped me with all my needs and made putting an iid in my car virtually stress free. Thanks Fred!

I first went to Fred because I had to (long story). Because of the honesty, integrity and square-dealing with which Fred treats his customers, he earned my business as my regular mechanic. You've got to appreciate a mechanic who will show you the parts replaced and walk you through the work done. Plus he keeps a clean shop, a real sign he takes pride in being the best. 100% recommend! read more

Fred is the man. breathalyzer installed today and he was so helpful and it was fast and easy process definitely will recommend this place

I came upon Fred's Auto Service when i needed to install an IID device in my car. I had a brand new BMW with a push button ignition. I called around to the installers nearby and was given the story, "Oh, I've never done one like that, but I'm sure I can figure it out." This did not instill any confidence in me at all. As I was asking around, the name Fred kept popping up as "the best". I hesitated because the shop is not near my house and I really didn't want to drive all the way to Glendale to have the device calibrated. Also, since I didn't have my licence yet, I couldn't drive to get the device installed. Fred and his crew drove all the way out to my house on a Sunday and had the device put in. I am so grateful to Fred that I don't even mind the drive out to see him. read more

Fred's auto service was a great place to go for all your interlock ignition needs. If you have had the unfortunate luck of joining the DUI club, I recommend "Fred's".
