We have been taking our cars to this 76 station for decades (Toyotas, Hondas). Eddie, the owner, charges a fair price, is fast, and delivers a great service. He will repair, fix, tune-up, change oil, etc., for less than other businesses. Even if you go to 76 Auto Repair for a second opinion, you won't be sorry. We take our car to Eddie before we go on our long road trips so he can check the brakes, tires, etc. so we don't have to worry about car trouble. read more

Quick, helpful, and gave advice free of charge. Mechanic was also pleasant and appeared very knowledgeable about my issue.

I've been looking to fix my car forever, I've taken it to many people before and no luck. Just recently I took it to long beach 76 and the manager Eddie took care of me well. He was able to find the problem and also give me a good price to fix. I dropped the car off and in not even a hour I got a call to pickup. He was honest and fast ill definitely be coming back. They give out free diagnostics which is even better! read more

TERRIABLE. The old dude quoted me $40 over the phone to change my low beam driver side headlight. WHEN I arrived he told me that he would have to take off the bumper to change the light. Bullshit. I left, bought the light and saved money and the aggravation, by doing the install myself. No wonder he has no customers! read more

Very pleasant bathroom experience. Clean, tidy and near the front, which is appreciated (as a women) (my partners review). Very nice gentlemen upfront read more

Don't waste your time anywhere else! Eddie is honest and hard working. I took my truck in at 8 and it was done by 12:30 that day (blown water pump). My other shop would of had it for at least 3 to 4 days.He also pointed out other issues that I knew needed attention, things I had worked at another car shop that wasn't done right. All my neighbors have been telling me about him. As a single women I felt safe and knew he was looking after my best interests. read more

Good people and great work. Rick took care of my old Saturn whenever it had problems for years, and took my newer (used) Nissan to Eddie and he kindly helped me out with the radiator fan and fuse for a good price and turn around time. Honest and reliable guys read more

Recently received a DMV renewal and needed a smog check on my car so I decided to try 76 auto repair. Yelp reviews were very good and it's conveniently located. I was completely satisfied with the friendliness ( Rick was great! ), quality of service, quick turnaround time, and cost of service ($60.00 or $10.00 off if you check in on yelp). He even electronically sent my smog report to the DMV for me! read more

Rick and the guys did a great job on my Silverado. AC compressor went out. The price was competitive with other shops near by but definitely left satisfied with the work and the price. I would recommend this place for your automative needs. read more

This used to be my go to mechanic but the previous owner is no longer there. Now it's SHADY af. You should be able to tell... trust your instincts. I went in for an oil change and came out with issues I did not have before. Another family mechanic (all the way in South OC unfortunately) rectified the sabotage at minimal cost. Stay away. read more

I don't know if Rick reads Yelp reviews and I never thought about posting a review on Yelp for the business but here goes!! I met Rick back in the late 1990's while I was getting my Honda smog checked at a Shell gas station and Rick was there getting the same thing done and he happened to know the owner and his son, we got to talking and when I needed a car repair I took it too Rick and I have NEVER taken my cars anyplace else for Repairs!!! I give Rick and his employees 10+ . They're Honest, friendly and very qualified mechanics!!! Glenn's car: Front Brakes, oil change, coils, used engine ( under 60,000 miles with 6 month warranty)water pump, spark plugs, thermostat housing, pcv valve,a/c compressor & condenser, and all new fluids and now it drives perfectly! My car: Valve cover gasket, Starter, oil change, coolant hoses. Yep spent $$$ but prices were very fair and repairs had to be done!!!! Rick explains the repair and will let you know if you can wait or if needs to be done right away!!!! The one negative review I read sounds like a miss communication with Rick! He has always given Great customer service as well as Tommy, Chuck, Ed and Pablo! I have been screwed over in the past by mechanics who either didn't do repair but charged meor did needless repairs! I'm so glad I met Rick when I did now I have a mechanic whom I can TRUST and is ALWAYS there when I need him and is accommodating to my needs!! We need more Mechanics like him!!! I recommend them 100% for smog checks, oil Changes and any car repairs!!!! Thank you Rick and Staff!!!! read more

I'd say the service here isn't great at all, rude, unclear excuses, and lots of attitude. Didn't feel welcome that's for sure, and the least they can do is have some manners. They assume that you don't know anything about cars or car shops. I can't believe I was even recommended this place. read more

Highly recommend this shop or the Lakewood shop for repairs. They are quick and helpful.

Rick is honest and straight forward. Replaced my busted up cat. Converter, dry cycled and smogged my car. Work was done quickly, and he also charged up 3 of my batteries from my boat, which was cool. Very satisfied read more

I went to this 76 station because of Yelp and they did a good job on my wife's minivan breaks. I brought my classic 1956 Continental to them because of starting issues. $662 later and a "rebuilt" carburator, I am now 700 miles later having the carb rebuilt again. My mechanic who really knows these cars was very clear that the job was not done right the last time (clearly because still having same issue). Because this was 2 years ago (700 miles later) no warranty but I got a solid, "sorry" from Rick. Great. read more

Had a great experience with my air filter and my alternator. Prices are fair and are super nice.

Came here for a SMOG check (they are STAR Certified), since it's located down the street from my house. Excellent service from the moment I stepped on property. I was greeted warmly, communicated my needs, and then 20 minutes later - I received a call stating my SMOG check was complete. I was able to pay, get my paperwork, and leave within about 5 minutes. Super efficient service! I won't need another SMOG check for a couple years, but I'll be back here for my next one. read more

Rick was really AWSOME!! His shop was quick, fast and provide SUPERIOR service!! Thanks a million for providing honest mechanical service!!!!! I will be returning and will be referring my co-workers to your shop. read more

If i could, i would give this auto shop 0 stars. Unfortunately, yelp doesnt allow this. I came into this shop with a flat that i got right outfront of the shop. They told me $15 to fix it. when i came back they told me that it was not fixable put my spare on and still charged me the $15 for 2 minutes of work. Something i could have done myself in 15 minutes, had they told me it was not fixable. Very poor customer service. I would not recommend this place to anyone! read more

This review is for the gas station, because they REFILL propane tanks!!!! And I only refill my propane tanks, exchanges are more expensive and you get someone else's abused tank. Refill places are hard to find, and this one is in a really convenient location for me! read more

Got my 06 Toyota Highlander smogged here recently and received fast and friendly service. I wanted to go somewhere local and support small business so I called around to a couple places and this one had the best price. read more

These guys are great!!!! Friendly & speedy service!! Very reasonable prices!! Big bonus for me---really close to my house!! I was ready to drop off my car & grab some ice cream at 31 Flavors, but Mr. Luzzi had me wait & I was on my way after 20min. I needed a headlight bulb replaced. It was too hard for me to do myself; Mr. Luzzi needed to get under the hood & deep under a few gadgets to reach the headlight screws. I have an auto mechanic already who I love, but for quick fixes or if I don't have time to drive to Cypress or wait a few hours (I can walk home from Orlando's), I'm going here. read more

took my wifes BMW here to get some work done an when they put the motor back together they forgot to put a seal back in the motor an now the motor is destroyed an rick an his crew will not take any responsibility for it so we are out 18000 $$$ i strongly recommend not going here read more

I took the day off from work. I brought my RV in today to another smog station. Yelp site said they smog RV's. Once I pulled into the parking lot I was stopped and told no RV's after 10:00am. Thankfully Yelp to the rescue. I found this 76 gas station that does smog checks. Upon arrival they were happy to do business with me. Even at 1:30pm. Staff was friendly and worked quickly. They even had a 10% off Yelp coupon. They won my business and now have a loyal customer. Thanks read more

Always take my car here. Friendly and knowledgeable staff and affordable prices. They go out of their way for customer satisfaction.

I had oil-change service here. They charged me only $20 for labor with me bringing oil and filter. Workers are nice and kind. They do a lot of other maintenance services. I like this place. I am pretty sure I am going to use this place for maintenance of my car while I am working near here. read more

It's been a year, but I still cannot relieve my resentfulness to this place. I don't know if the person Rick is racist or what, he saw me is a Chinese and charged me unreasonably and being not polite. This is my first time dealing with cars problem. I went to this place because of the check engine light on. He charged me $85 dollar for diagnosing what is the problem. Basically he just put a checking machine into my car. And That's IT! Only One minute he told me that the light on because one coil is not working. In total he charged me 250 for one coil replacement. This place is terrible. Don't come!!!!!! read more

I was introduced to Rick at this 76 Auto Shop last year when my little car needed a good tune up. He didn't waste any time and welcomed my business with absolute confidence and politeness. He is so knowledgeable and so positive, right away I could tell this is a man who not only knows his craft, but truly loves it. The job took about 2 hours and my little redhead was running better than ever. Two weeks ago, I needed a new heater core. Rick and his team got to work right away and she was again, running better than ever. Always informing me of the details and going the extra mile to make sure every other aspect of my vehicle was running smoothly. I am so happy, I recommended my boyfriend to take in his Goldie two days ago, especially after his usual auto shop kept his car for over a week collecting dust. Rick didn't waste any time, as always, and diagnosed the problem, gave us an amazing deal and Goldie was back on the road yesterday! Thank you Rick and your team of automotive experts, for your excellent customer service, honesty and great work! read more

@ Erin I work at this station and i believe the reason why is .10 cents more expensive than other stations is because we don't charge for using your credit or debit card ... other stations might be slightly cheaper but you need to pay cash or they will charge you a fee for using your card . . . . . thanks for your review we work hard on trying to keep it as clean as possible and keep our costumers happy! =) read more

I have been taking my car to Rick at Long Beach 76 for 5 1/2 years and I'm ashamed to admit that this is my first review for the station. I have never had such amazing respect and service from any repair station (and I'm picky). I've had major repairs from Radiator and water pump to just regular oil change. These guys are like family and take care of all their customers like you are their family. Honestly I would rather deal with rick and his crew than any dealership repair. They deserve 10 stars but 5 is all I can give. Most important their pricing is fair. read more

Fast. Courteous. Kind. Professional. From the time I made my appointment for a smog test until the conclusion of my smog test, this business was totally awesome. Best price, outstanding service, and very kind. I will return for maintenance on my already well maintained Chevy Silverado and am very pleased I met this business because I needed a smog test. They are fully certified for smog test and repairs. They do all services for your vehicle. read more

When my SUV sputtered out on me I took her to Rick at 76 Auto Repair based on a recommendation from a friend of mine. We suspected the fuel pump was bad and needed to be replaced so we researched part prices and amount of labor that would go into replacing it before we got to the shop. We were pleased to find that the price that we were quoted was fair, our suspicions about the problem were correct, and Rick had it ready by the next afternoon so we were back on the road! Woohoo! I will definitely return to this shop based on the great experience and glad it is conveniently located for me too! read more

I came here to get my car smogged this week and will most likely keep bringing my car here when it needs fixing and such. The guys were all super nice and when my car sadly did not pass they printed out a diagram online to show me exactly what it was that was wrong. I really appreciated that because usually at other places they tell me what's wrong & since I don't know cars I have no idea what they're talking about and am completely lost. I also felt like the guys here are honest in their diagnosis and don't try to sell you services you don't need which is always a plus. Like I said above I will most likely bring my car here anytime it needs something because overall I got nothing but good vibes read more

Guys were friendly enough but when I tried to smog my truck the guy took one look under my hood and denied me because he didn't see a smog sticker on my K&N air filter. No one has ever given me a problem about that before and the very next place I took it to passed the truck with no problems. So, if you have done anything to your vehicle what so ever, I wouldn't go here for a smog check. read more

What I like most is that if the repair can wait, they tell you. If the repair needs immediate attention, they tell you. My entire family goes to this shop. I like repair shops that are honest and tell you like it is. read more

We had to take our truck to three smog places, two mechanics AND the Ford dealership and no one knew what was going on with our truck ... Rick and the rest of the team at Long Beach 76 knew exactly what to do, were fast and affordable... I SO wish we would have gone here first and now we always will! Thank you SO much! read more

I have come here now 3 times for smog checks & once for a brake job and they did a good job. Rick the owner has excellent customer service, explains things well and his guys working there are professional. read more

Great place for a smog check! outstanding group of guys working there! Very courteous and professional! They surprised me with a returning customer discount! I will definitely be referring family and friends to this place! read more

I have had nothing but great experiences. All of the mechanics are professional, knowledgable and helpful. I highly recommend them!
