I've been a regular customer for years and have always trusted these locations. I'm usually not one…read moreto leave reviews, but this experience really deserves one. After getting off work on a busy day, I called ahead to make sure they had synthetic 10W-30 in stock since they usually don't. The person on the phone confirmed they did, so I drove over and waited in line for about 45 minutes. When I finally got to the front, they told me they needed to check if they had it, and it turned out they only had blended oil, not full synthetic. Since I had already waited, I agreed. The employee who I believe was the manager had a great attitude and provided excellent customer service, which I genuinely appreciated. Unfortunately, the actual service was a different story. The technician overfilled my engine by about two quarts, and when I pointed it out after seeing the dipstick, he incorrectly told me the level would stabilize once the car was running. Thankfully, a more experienced employee stepped in, acknowledged that the car was overfilled, and removed some oil. Even after all that, the entire process took about an hour and a half, and my car was still left with nearly an extra quart of oil, which I confirmed myself the next day when the engine was cold. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience at the Torrance location.

The people who work there are polite, and not pushy about adding extras to the cost. They also took my wiper blades that I had purchased and was unable to have someone put on- and replaced them. No charge for that! They ask if you want a beverage while waiting. Even when I have a car in front of me- they are fast and attentive letting me know it will be just 5 min till they can pull me into the spot!! I would not go any place else- no need!!

From different auto shops to even dealerships -- not one place has done as an exceptional job as One Stop Lube N Brakes. I initially thought I only had one issue with my brake pads needing to be replaced, but it turned out that I needed other things to be fixed as well. They didn't take advantage and broke down step by step each issue and what I actually wanted to get fixed instead of overcharging. My entire service was done within two hours and car drives so smoothly. Having peace of mind and finding a place that you can trust with your vehicle is truly priceless. Will be coming back and recommending to all my friends/colleagues.

We buy our own synthetic oil for oil changes and only some mechanics are willing to accept our own purchased oil with a reasonable charge for the oil change labor. Pep Boys wanted to charge us over double for the same service! While they performed the oil change, they found a few other issues with our over 20 year old car and provided us with (what we perceive as) fair quotes for the job. Calling to make an appointment seems pretty straightforward and I like that they text with updates. The actual shop is a bit hard to find since it is in a squishy lot with a bunch of other auto repair stores. I really love the overall location because it is smack dab in Old Town Torrance and it is lovely to be able to drop off the car and go get some grub in the area!

Give them a try.

Miguel and his team were incredibly thorough, honest, and professional from the start. I originally came in for a check engine light and rough driving issues, but during their inspection, they found additional problems that had been missed -- including failed suspension work and issues related to a previous oil leak repair. Miguel took the time to explain everything clearly, provided before and after photos, and even showed me the actual parts so I could fully understand what was going on. There was also a female mechanic there (I believe she may be one of the owners), and I absolutely loved her. She was knowledgeable, direct, and helped confirm concerns I had about previous repairs. You can tell they genuinely care about doing things the right way instead of just taking your money. What I appreciated most was the honesty. They didn't try to upsell me or pressure me -- they gave me real information and helped me make the best decision for my car. Finding a trustworthy mechanic is hard, and this shop gave me peace of mind. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending them to others.
