Lovely, helpful and kind. Did the work quickly and made me feel taken care of, However, several days later, my sparkplugs got loose again and what did I spend $600 for if I had to fix that myself (also that feels pretty steep in my semi-educated opinion). They also promised they'd send me a quote for additional work that never materialized. read more

A wonderful shop! Hetz was amazingly helpful to me with a relatively minor repair. He had me come to the shop to show him what I needed, then he fixed it on the spot. It was a wonderful exchange with a delightful man who was incredibly knowledgable. I will absolutely return when I need any repair. Thank you Hetz!! read more

Bringing my car to Hezi Auto Repair was the best decision I made. The whole experience was smooth, honest, and stress-free. My car runs perfectly now thanks to their work. Huge thank you to Nadav and Hezi for the amazing service! read more

Great place good service . Great staff very knowledgeable. Great service and great reasonable prices. read more

Hezi replaced the engine in my vintage Roadtrek van for a lot less than my South Bay mechanic quoted, and let me order my own engine online (saved me the markup). They were kind and honest and sent me pictures of the work in progress. I would definitely recommend them!!! read more

Took my Toyota Prius in when it started making weird noises and this was hands down the best experience I've had with a mechanic. Fixed the issue in a timely manner and they were super honest and accommodating. The car drives like it's new. Will definitely be using them again and recommend them to anyone looking for an awesome auto shop. read more

We (family) have 5 cars. One pretty new, two classics, one Jeep and one trucks. We always use Hezi and have been for years! Everything is simple and clear and we never had a problem. its great to have a mechanic you trust and him and his crew always come through. read more

SERVICE IS STELLAR!!! they are the only mechanics i trust. professional, speedy, and straight forward! they never fail to make my day-- delightfully unexpected of an auto shop read more

The only place I will bring my car to get fixed! Hezi and his son are so fair, reliable, and generous with their service. Every time I bring in my car, I know I'll be driving away with the problem fixed. They have always gone above and beyond to make sure everything is working properly, and I know I will always pay a fair price with them.​ read more

Stopped here in a panic after my car started making strange noises on the freeway. They were able to take a look at it and fix right away. Super nice and helpful. read more

My tires kept needing air and I had no idea why--turns out they were more than ten years old. Most shops could've easily taken advantage of the fact that I don't really know much about cars, but instead they were completely honest with me. They gave me a very fair price, and did the work quickly. read more

I came in from out of town when my car died. Which basically means I'm at the mercy of whoever I find to work on the car. Hezi Auto Repair was the closest place possible. I'm so glad it was. They diagnosed the problem and fixed it the same day. They could have easily charged me whatever they wanted because I was stuck. They were super nice and my car is running great. If you live or work anywhere near this place and you are not happy with your mechanic, GO HERE! They've been there for over 20 years. That doesn't happen if you suck. Great job Hezi. Thank you guys so much for taking care of me and my wife. read more

Heze replaced the battery cables in my car. It seemed expensive but I didn't complain. I just paid the bill and thanked him. He then offered to return my extra battery that I had bought from AutoZone. I said OK. A month later I went in to get my refund and he pretended not to know what I was talking about at first, but then after a while said oh "OK no problem. I'll take care of it." Two weeks later I went back and he says he can't return it and I should take it back now. WTF? I never asked him to return it. It was his idea. He offered to do it and took the battery out of my car. read more

OMG I am so glad I found these guys... And it's wonderful to have a great mechanic in my own neighborhood. Y JEEP had a headlight issue which kept me from being able to drive at night so I needed it fixed quickly and Nadav was able to get me on the road right away. Even though they had other jobs going on, they understood my situation and really helped me out. Hezi has assembled a great team . They had quite a few Jeeps there, but they seem capable of dealing with most any truck or car. Hezi was kind enough to show me some interesting restorations. They are doing on two vintage willies jeeps. I don't think my old mechanic will be seeing me again. read more

Took my car to Hezi earlier this week - amazing experience. Top notch quality, professionalism, and pricing. Nadav did a tremendous job on my car and always knew what to do when we ran into a challenge - very experienced and smart young gentleman. Will bring my car here moving forward! Thanks again Nadav and team! read more

Had my radiator and thermostat replaced for my Jeep Cherokee with the 3.2L Pentastar after the radiator started leaking. I was looking for someone specifically with some expertise working with Jeeps as it seemed sometimes the FCA engines can be peculiar and the parts can be a little trickier to find. Anyway, took my car here after reading other reviews are very happy with the repair. Was done quickly and a bit under the initial estimate even. And Hezi was friendly and communicative of the process. I don't live in LA (was visiting my folks), but if I did, I think this would be my go-to shop for my Jeep. Seems folks with Jeep expertise is a bit rare (at least in my neck of the woods further north). read more

Hezi was so wonderful! He helped me right away and was quick and very friendly! Highly recommend

hezi is an honest mechanic and one of the coolest person i met he gave me consolation and was on the dot read more

Hezi and his son Nadav are quite unusual. They're both very strong mechanics with a clear love for cars. I've been a customer for 10 years and I've taken new and vintage cars there and the results are always excellent. They make you feel welcome and they don't churn you for unnecessary work and extra money. I couldn't recommend them more! read more

Stopped by in need of finding a solution to my cars coolant not reaching my engine and overheating my car (I drive a 2005 Mercedes C240) Hezi was very accommodating and reminded me a lot of my relatives in the way he worked, his son is also very cool. He told me it was around $200 for a diagnostic in which he allowed me to leave a down payment and pay the rest when the job was finished. It turned out he diagnosed me with needing a new water heater hose which he recommended I buy from a nearby Mercedes dealership. It ended up costing only around $50 for the part and the other $150 for the rest of the diagnostic cost. Hezi was always responsive on the phone and held the car until I was ready to stop by and pick up. I'd give 5 stars but the only issue was that the entire problem wasn't fully diagnosed as my car had a leak near the radiator fan that wasn't found until later which was a big waste of time and it didn't allow me to drive to a job I had that weekend. Overall though very good work in terms of efficiency and honesty. Thanks again Hezi. read more

I have gone with Hezi Auto Repair for several jobs now. Hezi and Nadav are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and fair. Hard to find good mechanics these days, especially with the above qualities. read more

Great honest mechanics here and very knowledgeable and trustworthy. I've brought in a few of my vehicles and they always pinpoint and fix the issues with very fair charges. Very happy with Hezi! read more

If you have a Jeep - whether a CJ YJ TJ XJ JK or JL - this is your place. They work on all model cars, but they really know their Jeeps! Hezi and his son Nadav are great mechanics. They are fair and reasonable, they don't encourage you to fix things that aren't broken, they always answer the phone, and most importantly they know jeeps, wranglers, and cherokees. I recently had my 1986 CJ7 worked on by these guys. These are simple cars but you really want someone who knows how to work on them. These guys know their jeeps! They replaced all of my running gear, did a rear differential swap for me, and rebuilt all my wheel hubs with fresh bearings and seals, and did new front brake pads and rear drum brake wheel cylinders. We went with all new factory-style suspension components and upgraded shocks. After an initial inspection, we made a plan and they let me purchase all of my own parts and bring them. New crown leaf springs, shackles, hangers, u bolts, steering stabilizer, and bilstein shocks. While Hezi replaced all my fluids, oil change, transmission fluid, differentials, and transfer case, he identified that on my rear differential, a factory "trac-loc" LSD - had a clutch pack plate that had slipped out of the retaining ring and was wearing down my differential housing. He sent me a picture, and then gave me several options to fix it. I ended up purchasing a new differential housing and spider gears online and he was able to rebuild the differential with those parts and re-use my other parts. Hezi knows a lot about rear ends and differentials. He probably charged me half of what other shops wild have charged me to swap a differential. While my Jeep CJ7 was there they had several other Jeeps they were working on, and were doing some pretty cool lifts and off road suspension work. Nadav, Hezi's son, knows a lot about Jeep lift kits. Even though I kept my CJ at factory height, if I was going to do a suspension lift or modification, these were the guys I would go to. Most importantly, the jeep drives great, and they told me to bring it back in 3 weeks so they can double check all the suspension after I break it in. read more

These guys really helped me out and I have to say they went the extra mile which is rare nowadays. Not only they were super accommodating and managed to fit me in their busy schedule, but were also kind and honest with me. They gave me a time frame and my car was ready exactly within that time frame. They were super laid back about everything and super responsive at the same time. I felt I was in good hands. If you are looking for a trust worthy mechanic, I highly recommend this place! read more

I'm so happy to have found Hezi auto repair! Nadav is very honest and knowledgeable. I brought my 2006 Range Rover in because the brake light was not working. I came from another repair shop that told me they would need my car for 3 hours and they weren't even sure if they had the correct parts. As soon as I pulled up Nadav greeted me right away and went to work. Fortunately it was only a bulb replacement. I will definitely be a customer for life! read more

I went in for an easy fix that I was nervous was actually I fixable - I was greeted by a polite gentleman and was reassured he would have it out in no time - 10 min later and good as new ; I would deff recommend to my friends and family , 10/10 service read more

Hezi is a great mechanic! Reliable, Honest about what your expectations will be. Fair prices!

Right up the street from me, have lived in the neighborhood for 3 years and just gave them a try for an oil change. They were fast and efficient, communicative, and rotated my tires as well, and were reasonably priced. read more

Always quality service. Ella always calls me to communicate everything including what's needed to be done on my car and all the steps we can take. Hezi and his sons also are quick to help me out with same-day service. They're very understanding and caring!! Would recommend coming here. read more

Hezi was a great experience. Fast, knowledgeable, and friendly. I will go back again when my car needs an oil change and any future repairs. Check them out! read more

Let me tell you, Hezi and his son are the best! As a woman, finding a good mechanic can be a difficult task. I've had numerous horrible experiences with sexist mechanics who have not been honest. At Firestone, I was literally told "I'm not even going to try to explain this to you." Hezi, spoke to me like someone with a brain who could understand how a car works and what the problems are. I wanted to cry as I told him "Thank you for just explaining it to me so I can understand." not only that, pricing is on point! I've never felt like I was getting ripped off, everything is extremely fair! You almost want to pay more just because you're so grateful to not have broken the bank. If I ever move, even if I have to drive an hour to reach Hezi and the crew, I will. I have a Ford Escape, it's a lemon lol and I now LOVE my car thanks to Hezi Auto Repair! read more

Hezi was recommended by a friend and he and his son were awesome. I live really close and couldn't even get my car out of the garage because of a clutch issue where it wouldn't go into reverse. I live about a mile from his shop so he offered to come see if he could get it pulled out and drive it and of course, he was able to because he knew what to do to get it going but it still needed a repair. He said he wanted to save me the tow since I was so close and he had the time. Now that's service. I did go very first thing when they opened, before they got busy. Hezi immediately diagnosed the issue with my clutch while we were still in my garage and gave me an estimate. He took off in the Jeep and fixed it same day at a fair price. Thank you guys!! read more

Hezi and his son are great. I had a problem with my car overheating and I needed to fix it asap. They explained and showed me what the problem was and how they were going to fix it. They fixed the problem that same day. I am definitely combing back if I ever have any other car problems in the future. Great customer service! read more

Amazing service!! Honest and loyal staff. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone needing car serviced.

As the owner of an (almost) 40 year old, lifted/4x4, and very customized van, it's safe to say that at this point I'm a good judge of mechanics. With that being said, Hezi has been my go-to mechanic in LA since buying the van 4 years ago. Hezi is incredibly gifted and knows his way around any type of vehicle, regardless of it's age. That isn't to be taken lightly in LA, where mechanics who know how to work on rare or customized vehicles are tough to come by. He actively tries to save you money by telling you what needs to be done cheaply or not, and also what needs to be done ASAP vs what can be done in a year. No job is too big or too small for him as well. I've had him do things as small as changing oil and as big as replacing the engine. Safe to say that i would highly recommend him to anyone. read more

Just moved out here, I had an issue with my car and was nervous to go to a mechanic considering I've had alot of bad experiences but at Hezi they repaired my problem and were very fair with the price I definitely recommend coming here! read more

I don't usually write yelp reviews, but I had to write one for Hezi Auto Repair. Long story short, my girlfriend's car broke down in the middle of the street, and luckily, we saw Hezi's Auto Repair. We ran in asking for help and without hesitation, Hezi and his son came out and began pushing the car to safety and out of traffic's way. After that, they suspected that the car ran out of gas, and provided a bucket to fill up from a gas station. I came back with a bucket filled with gas and Hezi personally poured it into the gas tank. Shortly after, the car turned on and began running. However, as soon as the car started, Hezi's son noticed a leak was occurring. We immediately turned the car off and the son came out with a fire extinguisher - luckily it wasn't necessary. Moments later, Hezi and his team lifted the car up, determined exactly what was wrong, and indicated where the leak was coming from. Ultimately, Hezi and his crew provided amazing service and besides that they rushed to an ongoing emergency before pricing was even mentioned, which by the way was definitely beyond reasonable! It is rare to find a skilled and honest mechanic, and it is even more rare to come across good-hearted people. Hezi and his team resolved a potentially horrible and dangerous situation with the upmost professionalism and sincerity. Thank you, Hezi Auto Repair! read more

Hezi Auto Repair - Auto Repair Near Me - Studio City, California

Found this repair shop thanks to Yelp, and now have found our new go to mechanic for whenever we need! After speaking to Hezi over the phone briefly about my Jeep, I stopped by the shop the following day to be greeted by him and his son ( Father and son business). They confirmed the check engine light issue, contacted me with a reasonable quote and were off to working on my jeep. Very efficient honest service, was in and out in the same day. I will be referring them to anyone I know in need of a good mechanic! Thank you! read more

Hezi and his son Nadav are good people. I've gone with them a few times and I'm never disappointed. Most recently we had a car that had not been used for at least 10 years, they got it working good as new. Thanks Hezi Auto Repair read more

Mr. Hezi helped me. Nice old school mechanic. Exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommended.
