After failing my inspection at the Toyota dealership and declining their outrageously expensive repair quote, I started looking for a trustworthy alternative. I contacted several auto repair shops and ultimately chose L&B because Chris was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable from the first phone call. I brought my car in on Friday morning, and within a few hours Chris called with his recommendations and a fair, transparent estimate. By later that afternoon, my car was ready. The service was fast, professional, and reasonably priced. It's refreshing to find an honest auto repair shop you can trust. I'm thrilled to have found L&B and know I'll be a loyal customer going forward. Chris is the best! read more

Better workmanship from mechanics, replace all parts back to their original origin, undercarriage plastic protectors and fasteners.

It's hard to find an independent shop that's willing to look at a hybrid (Camry). L&B took good care of my car. Car was in the shop for a week, but it was a tricky problem to find the actual source (electrical/computer issues were a side effect of a water leak the dealer couldn't find last time I went to them complaining of wet carpet.) And they charged me less than the dealer would have just to even look and make a diagnosis. I'll definitely go back. read more

L&B is by far the BEST! Customer friendly, courteous, knowledgeable etc.. I will never take my car anywhere else. such a great experience. Honest , reliable, reasonably priced. read more

Great service. Fast turnaround. Felt honest and fair. Better price than I ever expected having to pay in the city. Chris was flexible and worked with our pick up / drop off schedule. Highly recommend! read more

I highly recommend Chris of L and B auto repair, if you're looking for a knowledgeable, experienced, and competent car mechanic. As a first time customer, he did a great job replacing my Hyundai Sonata's fuel pump and replacing one of my electric door locks that wasn't working properly. His prices are very reasonable. I will be returning to Chris when I need additional work on my car in the future. Sheldon F. read more

Above and beyond. Always. Chris and team have taken care of my vehicles - i wouldn't go anywhere else read more

If you're seeing overwhelming reviews about Chris, it's cuz it's true! i called Chris the day before my road trip and he had my car fixed within the day, and was very mindful of my time sensitive trip. No BS, no upselling, reasonably affordable. For someone who dreads car problems, i'm excited to have found my go-to mechanic. Cannot recommend enough. read more

Incredible service! My car was the victim of a minor street-parking collision, and after reading L & B's positive Yelp reviews, I decided to bring it in. The damage was fixed in just a few days, and they even washed the car afterwards! Excellent communication and a fair price - I would absolutely bring the car here in the future (although hopefully I won't have to). read more

L & B Auto Repair - After - Auto Repair Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

See all

First time I ever came here and I am very happy I did. Chris who is the manager or owner went not only the extra mile but more like extra miles to get my car back on the road. He doesn't give up. An honest man and mechanic which is hard to find these days and it was a very good price for what he had to do. Bring your work to him and I swear he will take care of it. He now has another customer. Thank you again. read more

Shady business practices Will take your money for parts and just bang out your old parts. Unless you know a lot about cars and can argue with their mechanic, I would go elsewhere. Rude customer service too read more

My tire light was on so I brought my car in to check them out. The repairman checked all my tires and told me they were showing low pressure only because of the cold weather. No charge, and he refused to accept a tip! I will return if I need anything more serious. read more

Chris was trustworthy and straight forward. He took the time to explain everything which helped me make clear decisions.

Chris and his team are nothing short of incredible. The value for service is unmatched. Great prices for top tier work. I always call before coming in and he's always accommodating. In addition to taking care of the service requested he keeps any eye out for anything else that may cause a problem. I cannot recommend L & B Auto Repair enough. I've been for oil changes, state inspections, and a host of other issues and they never disappoint. read more

After reading the reviews for this place we were hoping Chris and his team could help us. Our Toyota Corolla was in disrepair and on its last legs. We went to Toyota in Bayside. They kept charging a lot of $ and never fixing our problems. We went to Toyota in Long Island. They basically said it was no good and to get a new car. They gave me a number for Westbury Toyota. We went to L& B auto repair in Brooklyn and they not only went above and beyond but they were concerned with our concerns. They also gave us a fair price considering what they had to do. I will forever bring our car or any car that we have to them exclusively. Chris and his team are the best and we are so happy we found this place. Sincerely and Seriously Thank you. Ria and Mike. read more

This place is great! Great communication, fast turn around fair price. I had brought my Toyota Camry to Pep Boys months earlier because the windshield wiper motor was glitching and they charged me $300 and kept the car for 4 days. L&B had it for 24 hours, charged me nothing to fix the wiper motor, but when they found a legit leak in the radiator *asked* if I wanted to fix it and gave a really fair price. read more

In the city it's important to find the right place to have work done on your vehicle. I found out the hard way, a lot of people will rip you off. However "L & B Auto" doesn't seem to be one of them. I found this location on Yelp. It had good reviews so I figured why not. Plus it helped they were open at eight AM. When I pulled up, I couldn't believe how many cars were there. So many people trust this, do it all shop, for service. I mean, they do, body work, inspections, oil changes, and more. How's that for one stop shopping! I was greeted by the owner. He explained that the wait would be two to three hours. I was a few thousand miles over my oil change so I had to wait. I found a shaded area and got to work on my phone. But to my surprise, he walked over. He was able to squeeze me in and serviced my work vehicle. He also, took credit, which made things so much easier. To add to my service experience, I looked over the price. He actually charged me a great price for oil and wiper blades. It was the best I've seen in Brooklyn so far. Trust me, I've take a lot of our vehicles in for service. I told him, I would be back. I plan to make sure all our sedans and sprinter vans go here. To bad they don't do large trucks. read more

Great service , good work and great value. Trust these guys with my car. Definitely a reliable , honest shop.

Today I had the most wonderful experience at an auto repair shop ever. Chris and his team took excellent care of me and my car, amazing turn around and the price unbeatable! I will totally come back again! read more

LMB auto repair has been my go to repair shop for more than two years now. Chris and his team always seem to get the job done is always offering fair prices and remembers your name. In the Customer Service world not many people are like that this time we brought our car to have motor mounts replaced brakes and rotors replaced And the job was done excellent and the car drives much bette. I never feel taken advantage of when bringing my car to L & B Thank you, Chris. read more

Honest courteous people. Had a car showing multiple indicators displaying problems. Took it to a BMW dealership, they said it would take 4 days and one year old break pads must be replaced and the rest would take days to diagnose, which was a lie. This plane quickly discovered a problem: the wiring was chewed up, most likely by rats. The car was ready in 4 hours. Great honest auto repair places like this are hard to find. read more

I've used this place about five times now and will never use another repair shop! The guy who runs this place is a genuinely good guy who is honest about what needs to be done for your car and fair at pricing. We took the car once to pep boys for an oil change (not realizing L&B does them for cheaper at the time) and pep boys found an oil leak and axle issue and wanted to charge us $1700 for replacing the oil pan, gasket, fixing an axle and another thing I forget. Instead we got it fixed here the exact same repairs for $950 and now use L&B for oil changes and inspections too! Once we dropped the car off to be fixed while we were on vacation and he even moved the car for us on alternate side parking day to avoid us getting a ticket. A total gem of a human being! read more

These guys are great, plain and simple. L&B is family owned and ran. Chris is your go-to - he runs the place and does a darn great job at it. He's personable and is a stand-up guy - he's honest with his work, with his prices and I haven't once felt like I was being taken advantage of for my lack of car knowledge. I can't recommend L&B enough - if you're searching for a mechanic and need any type of work done, you can be sure you're in good hands with these guys. And hey, there's a lot of competition in the area - I'm sure there are some decent mechanics out there but L&B is the full package; reliable, honest, fair, skilled and personable. That's why I keep coming back and continue to recommend L&B to anyone who's looking for a mechanic. And yes, the do inspections here as well. Give this team a shot - you won't be disappointed! read more

Chris is a gentleman and a gem of a human being. He repaired the brakes on my mother's car and charged a very fair and affordable price to do so. On top of that, he had it all done on the same day within a few hours. He did a high quality job and he is a very fair and honest mechanic. read more

I am so grateful to have found this spot! Reviews led me to think service would be reliable, and it was , and more! Quick turnover, excellent service, felt valued. I'll be back. Thank you! read more

Chris was awesome. I know nothing about cars and he explained what everything was to me. Brought my bosses car in and he told me what needed to be replaced and which parts could wait. Honest shop from what I've experienced, I will go to L&B when my bosses car gets to go back. :) read more

Chris and L & B Auto Repair are the best.....in 50 years of going to Auto Dealerships for repairs I have never experienced a professional and honest repair shop such as L and B Thank you Chris! Artie Bagatta 2015 White Honda CRV read more

I needed a car mechanic to have a look at the car before I start my long-range road trip and thanks to Yelpers I found the best auto repair shop in Brooklyn. Chris is the best. As a first-time car owner, I couldn't be happier with the efficiency of their service. I'll definitely be back if the car needs anything. Edit: My apologies to Chris and yelpers for the bad photo shooting skills I'll take a better picture next time read more

L & B Auto Repair - Chris - Auto Repair Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Chris and his team performed extensive work on my older vehicle recently and I was really impressed by the level of service they provide. An honest and professional shop where you can feel confident that the price is fair and the job is done right. I wanted to extend the life of our family's vehicle as much as possible for many miles ahead of us and Chris was patient and helpful when explaining to me what components were gonna be necessary to replace or upgrade for safety and longevity and also highlighting areas where we could save money. I had to write this review because I was so happy to find a fresh and sharp mechanic with old school values who takes the time with each client to do the right thing. Keep up the great work! read more

I haven't been to a mechanic who is as considerate and transparent as Chris and the guys at L&B. Right as I walked in and began talking to Chris I knew I was in good hands. After seeing the other reviews across google and yelp it's obvious every customer is treated the same. This place will take care of you and your car with the upmost quality and trust. read more

I've found my new go-to shop! Chris is the best, he found all the issues with my car and quoted me a very reasonable price given all the issues it had. I had taken the car to another mechanic before I found Chris and they didn't want to "deal with the car". I was worried that I'd never find someone to actually want to fix my annoying car. So even before I brought my car in to Chris, I called ahead of time to see if he would even consider diagnosing/tackling some of the problems it had (one issue was power seats that didn't work which apparently are a huge pain in the ass, as I was told by other shops). Chris immediately told me that it was no problem at all and that he has no issues digging in to see what the problem was. That's what a girl likes to hear! He got back to me as promised and gave me a quote to fix some major items like brakes/power steering/oil leak and said he'd let me know about the power seats after he fixed the main issues. A few days later he called to tell me everything was repaired and was able to fix the power seats as well! What a gem of a human! The car now drives like a dream and much better than it has in years. I can't recommend Chris enough, take your car to L&B! You won't be disappointed! read more

the BEST repair shop in NY period. needed a service maintenance, a belt change, & some gunk that was thrown at my car removed & they had it all done in a day. i went to this other auto repair shop & the guy said i needed to replace the belt & the alternator of my car then quoted me $1800. i got a 2nd opinion with L&B & i'm SOO blessed that i did. they did my a2 service & told me i just needed the belt changed which saved me A LOT of money! plus i got 2 car washes to try to remove this sticky drink that was thrown on my car & those washes did nothing. he special ordered this gunk remover & went to work & got all of it removed. honest & hard working people. they slayed so hard omg . i will b referring ALL my friends to them & will ONLY b going to them for any future repairs / services . thank you so much Chris ! you the bomb dot com read more

Don't let the Sanford & Son vibe of this shop fool you. They know what they're doing. Sorta place and the kinda people the city needs more of. Honest. Fair prices. read more

Responsive & customer focused. Have had car serviced here a few times in the past - routine oil changes & emissions tests. There are several repair shops in the area but picked this one based on the positive Yelp reviews. I'm happy to add one more! read more

Incredible service and extremely friendly group of mechanics. Not knowing so much about cars I am always a little uncomfortable talking "shop" but these guys made it so easy. Respectful, thoughtful and knowledgeable. They didn't upsell me on anything that needed to be "fixed". I came in knowing what I needed and they took care of it without any back and forth. I will be returning for future maintenance. read more

I came here after reading all of the great reviews and Chris did not disappoint. My driver wheel was making weird noises since my wife got the tire patched at a place in Connecticut and as it turned out, the friggin wheel wasn't tightened enough! Chris told me it could have been a disaster if I had kept going on with it like that, was able to tighten the wheel and didn't charge me a dime. Will return here for all my mechanic needs and have already recommended him to my friends! Thanks again! read more

Echoing all of the other reviews, Chris and L&B are amazing. Fair prices, great communication, and quick turnaround for brake work. Would absolutely recommend (and already have) to anyone. read more

Called early Saturday am for an inspection-told no problem come on by I'll take care of you. Dropped my car off, walked up to Greenwood cemetery to kill some time. By the time I came back, car was done and ready to go! read more

Good price, fixed my car earlier than expected, worked well with my insurance, and were very nice and responsive. Explained in detail to me the fix, cost, picked up the phone so fast every time I called, and let me change my pickup date like 3 times so I could keep my car there (and not get my converter stolen again). Will def be going here for any needs ! read more
