An honest, trustworthy, reliable and capable mechanic can be hard to find, but based on my experience, I would definitely recommend this shop over any others I've been to in years!!
I was recommended to this mechanic by smog shop owner who also has a repair shop as he was too busy to do the repairs.
The owner of 1Day Auto Repair was doing all the work himself because his help was out sick, and despite of how busy he was, still fit in repairs to my van, because I had to get on a plane to Scotland in a couple of days, and had repairs that couple have caused other issues and potentially dangerous driving conditions.
Not only was he significantly less expensive than 2 other mechanics the former owner of this van was quoted for the repairs, and I was quoted by Crown Auto in WLA, but he saw one vital and obvious repair all 3 shops missed. He even pointed it out to me and showed me so I could see it. He also showed me the part that needed to be replaced, explained why (which was easy to see).
Without going into every detail, I'll just share that this mechanic goes above and beyond! He even let me supply my own parts and still warranted the labor (of course not the parts since he didn't supply them) without any resistance.
In hindsight I would actually have let him supply them as he didn't mark them up crazy high like nearly every other mechanic tends to do.
I don't live in L.A. anymore, but if I did, (I lived in Santa Monica 26 years) this would definitely be my go to mechanic, even if I had to travel an hour (as I did) to get here!
This is an absolute neighborhood gem!! read more
