Six months ago, my engine overheated due to a lack of coolant. The dealership quoted me a $3000 estimate, claiming the coolant hose was not covered under warranty. I took my car to several other auto shops, where I received shocking advice--some suggested they'd need to remove the engine, while others simply said the car couldn't be fixed. Finally, I went to Radiatorland. They provided a diagnosis first thing the very next morning, accurately identified the necessary parts, and quickly resolved the issue at an affordable price. Highly recommend!! read more

If you read past reviews, Radiatorland estimates are competitive and honest, IMO. I just had a gasket/head plate replaced, and having been here before and getting an estimate in a timely matter, I went with them and saved time by not calling around. Just a good neighborly business that you can trust. read more

So of course right before our trip to Tahoe for a nice new years weekend of chilaxing and snowboarding, ... the radiator on my Ford Expedition blew! It was a Wednesday so I had two days to deal with it before leaving on the trip that Friday. I'm an avid DIYr so did an Amazon search but nothing could be delivered for like a week. Cost of a radiator ranged between $100-$300. I know mechanic prices and labor for this job should not exceed $300-$500 max! Called around and was careful not to sound desperate asking for quotes. 3-4 places quoted me between $900-$1400!!! Left a message at Radiator Land and Brandon called me back! He gave me a price in my range and was able to accommodate a 1 day radiator replacement ! He was honest and said that the quoted price was for just the radiator and removal of old one and install of new one. If there were any other surprises (bad hoses and such ) of course price would be different . And of course they would have to diagnose and verify the old radiator indeed sprung a leak ! Stars aligned and my situation was just a radiator replacement! Thanks Brandon and the guys at Radiator Land! We ended up having a blast on the mountain and a great start to the New Year!!! Highly highly recommend this place! read more

I've been going to Radiatorland for heater and A/C repairs ever since I can remember, most recently my 1964 Buick Riviera hobby car needed to have the a/c vents and blowers checked and corrected. Greg Circuit is a great guy to work with, no non-sense, get the job done type of guy. I highly recommend this shop. read more

See all

Had a radiator for my classic Cadillac repaired. Turn around time was as promised. Had an issue come up with my car that was not their fault. They took care of of it for me and did not charge me. Very honest shop, good people, competitive pricing! I don't trust very many people to work on my car. I would bring it back to them in the future with full confidence. read more

Got an A/c recharge for a 1998 Sienna. Completed in the timeframe committed and so far running good.

My car unexpectedly broke down when I happened to be in the same area as this shop, and I walked into Radiatorland only to ask to buy some tools to fix the car, not expecting anything extra because this happened on Christmas Eve. I was allowed to borrow some tools, rather than having to buy them which was great. When I was unable to fix my car by myself, the guys at Radiatorland offered to drive me back to my vehicle and jump start it so I could at least relocate my car. One of the mechanics Miguel drove me to my car and not only helped me move the car, but also identified and gave me instructions on how to fix what was wrong (was not a real mechanical issue, luckily). Given that the folks at Radiatorland basically rectified my whole car trouble situation, I offered compensation for their services. Their reply was that they just wanted to help and gave me a "Merry Christmas". Due to their can-do attitude and willingness to assist, I got my car running when I was left with very few other options (and a dead phone) on the eve of a major holiday. Kudos to the amazing staff and service at Radiatorland for caring and helping me out; THANK YOU!! read more

I recently found out that I needed a new radiator, but I wasn't happy to hear that it would cost $800 to replace it. Since I didn't want to spend that much money, I called around and got a price quote of $320 from Radiatorland. What a price difference! The staff was polite and helpful, and they finished my car by the time that they had promised. I would definitely recommend going here if you ever need a new radiator. read more

A while back, I had some issues with my X-Terra. It was a couple of different issues that my normal shop gave me what seemed like an extremely high quote for. Sure enough, when I took my truck to the guys at Radiatorland, the quote they gave me was much more reasonable. I literally paid the evaluation fee at my old place and left anyway, because I saved hundreds and hundreds of dollars here. I even waited a while to write this review, to make sure it all worked out in the long run - which it has. Beware of shops who get to know you with decent prices and then start charging you a bunch more. If that happens to you, call or take your auto to Radiatorland for a quote. Might see you there! read more

I had a pesky problem with my 2022 Subaru cooling system, so I took it into RadiatorLand in Santa Clara, CA. The guys there found the problem and fixed the problem the same day. And it only cost me less than $500. I'd recommend them. read more

I had a nasty clunk and grinding from the front of my Suburban. I was expecting a large repair bill. They quickly diagnosed the problem and the work was done by noon. Very reasonable price and fixed the issue. read more

I had some water leaking under my passenger seat. They unclogged the A/C drain and did not solve the problem, then they asked me to replace my windshield which does not have any problem. I went to another store and solved the problem simply by cleaning the windshield drain. They may do a good job if you know what you need, but do not let them diagnose the problem. read more

Read a few bad reviews regarding customer service before calling for a quote on my truck. The general tone of the shop manager or desk guy(Greg) is pretty curt. I don't want a sensitive mechanic, but customer friendly would be nice. The quote I received was 100 less than what the actual cost would be because he quoted the wrong radiator. I expect the radiator expert to make sure he is quoting the right size, make and model of a part. It seems its up to the customer to research and ensure your getting what you need. Again, not customer focused. After he realized he gave me a bad quote, he told me, "you can go to a dealer, they can charge you tons, or I can do it for what I said.". I guess he didn't know I knew that already. I don't reccomend any service that isn't customer friendly. I most certainly don't recommend services that seem unprofessional. Giving bad quotes are a bad practice...whether by error or not, its not good business read more

The customer service provided by the "manager" Greg is awful. He is arrogant and does not seem to care if you have the work done by them or not. He is also very slow to provide an estimate and when I asked for one he just said it would not be more than $xxx. I got the feeling that even if the estimate was a lot higher than the actual cost of service, I would still be charged close to the estimate. I would never go back to this place nor would I ever want to deal with that "jerk" again! read more

My husband had Radiatorland clean his radiator for his classic car. They completed the job in a few days and were easy to reach by phone. They did an excellent job clearing out all the sediment and repainting the radiator. It looks and functions just like new! They are a trusted service for my husband as he continues to restore his car. read more

Took the radiator for my 67' Triumph Spitfire here. Well priced and they did a fine job, turn around was quick. Still no leaks and doing it job fine, 6 years running. Dealt with Greg. No complaints here. He told me alittle about the process even asked what kind of car this was off and said he always though those little spitfires we're cool. Would I come here again? 100% yea Oh yea. For the classic car people. I got the radiator with all fins re-straightened and lightly coated in black paint. Thanks again RadiatorLand read more

I bought a used all aluminum radiator (Ron Davis - great solution for hot running sports cars on track days - I love them!) and it had a leak where a stone hit one of the cooling tubes. Very fair price, they pressure checked it to 21 psi which gives me confidence, same day-turnaround, I was in at 8, picked it up at the end of the day. I Installed it last night and it works as it should - good work, fair price! read more

I didn't actually have to buy anything from these folks, and my only interaction with them was on the phone. I was prepared to buy some parts from them for my S10 and they told me I needed nothing, the cooling ports for transmission fluid could simply be ignored on this radiator. I will send people there and when I need help, they are on my first-call list. Great outfit, thank you so much for steering me straight! :-D read more

Great place and great communication. They went above and beyond to figure out a leak problem in my 2011 Jeep Sahara. Am a fan and would recommend to anyone in need of repairs. read more

My A/C suddenly stopped working (in the summer) and was blowing hot air constantly. I found Radiatorland via Google and decided I had to at least get a quote. I called and spoke to Greg on a Friday and he said I could drop off my car the very next morning. Within a couple hours he determined the problem and called me with an AMAZING quote to get me all fixed up. My car was ready to go within hours. My A/C is all fixed up and blowing freezing cold air again. Thanks Greg !! I will be back with any future auto problems read more

I swung by and got my heater core bypassed. Was a fairly pain free process at a reasonable price. My only problem was they didn't bother topping off my reservoir. Luckily I had some antifreeze left over from my leaky heater core so I topped it off and all was good. Thanks for the good work guys! Would go here again for radiator work read more

I wish I could put zero stars. What customer service. This guy on the phone was terrible. I told him I had coolant leaking and then he immediately quoted me $189.00 for a new radiator plus $159.00 extra to install it. Don't you want to know more? Don't you want to know where the leak is? I told him that the leak may be from the engine block and I may not need a new radiator and he said, "Oh, well, your phone is not working too well so I couldn't really understand what you were saying." So you quote people a price without not knowing what they really want? Then without telling me to hold on, I heard him arguing with another person in the shop about putting so much time into their car and it would cost at last a thousand bucks. OMG, glad I didn't waste my time going down there first. read more

My radiator had a crack in it so I called around for quotes. My neighbor recommended Radiatorland and they were $100 less than the other shops because the radiator price was $100 less. They installed my radiator and also noted that my front motor mount was badly worn, something another shop hadn't caught during their inspection 6 months before. They replaced the mount and my car doesn't vibrate as much while idling now. read more

I recently had my car worked on at radiator land needing major service done.I made extensive inquires about the cost of the services reading many review talking to service mangers I came to the conclusion carlos the owner of radiator land was the person for the job .greg the service explained everything in detail that was being done if they found any other problems along the he would call with a price quote to let me decide on course of action to take. after 2 days and a couple thousand dollars later my car runs like NEW. I am so happy with the staff and highly recommend this company to anybody that wants there car done in honest and reliable plus cost effective means.Thank you for putting me at peace of mind when it comes to my car.Oh yes by the way my car has over 140, 000 miles and drives wonderful. :-) read more

First of all if you have any problems with your car and want to get the best price possible go to radiatorland. It's family runed and owned operation. All the managers are very helpful and they really take care of what ever it is you need. Carlos the owner is a straight forward guy and will tell you what he can and can't do. He also verifies something to be done and will tell you if something is necessary or tells you to wait on something. That is honesty. I know he consistently says things like integrity...so this shop not only speaks it but delivers on integrity of the work they say they are going to produce! read more

Radiatorland - Right of of De La Cruz before the road splits off...up the street from the Airport. - Auto Repair Near Me - Santa Clara, California

Hey - I found a great Mechanic / Auto Repair Service! Recommended to me by a friend who also owns an Isuzu Rodeo like me. Radiatorland (a.k.a. Autoland - they're actually the same shop - on De La Cruz. Ask for Greg Circuit. Greg took great care of me. I've had two repairs done on my Rodeo: Fuel Injection cleaning and Fuel Pump/Sender Unit replacement. Greg and Autoland do quick work and provide shuttle service pick-up/drop-off to boot! Prices are reasonable - a good value. Never want to go to a dealership again. So happy that I've also taken my GMC Yukon in for electrical service. Again, Greg and Autoland/Radiatorland hit a home run for me. Check them out - you'll be a happy customer. read more

Greg is a life saver. True professional and was able to get my radiator for my BMW fixed in a few hours. On a personal note, he listens to you and connects on a personal level. Excellent pricing compared to the dealer. Will definitely refer Radiatorland. read more

My Toyota Highlander had a radiator leak and required a new radiator. Radiatorland replaced my radiator in one day with a new OEM part having a life-time warranty and gave me a great price. The service representative was polite, honest and performed to his word. I recommend their service to anyone. Tom DeFranco, Cupertino, CA read more

Frankly, I don't see why anyone would go anywhere else for radiator service, and probably just about any other kind of work at the co-located Auto-land. From top to bottom, these guys did a fantastic job with my 2003 Corolla, installing a good OEM radiator for 43% of what the dealership wanted (and 37% of the price with genuine Toyota parts). The place is clean, conveniently located, and the front office coordinator, Carlos, was genuinely considerate. I especially appreciated the complementary ride to and from work by Jimmy. Once again, Yelp has done a serious disservice to a good business on the basis of a few bad reviews, I mean, just check all the filtered 5-star reviews! read more

Came to Radiatorland after Firestone wanted to charge me 800 dollars, for a radiator, got the radiator and the radiator flush for almost half of what Firestone wanted. Stay away from Firestone if you want to save money and good service. Thanks for your good service will definitely come back and recommend you to my friends and family. read more

Been taking my car here for a couple years. Good service, knowledgeable, good rates. They work with a towing service if you're stuck (call & ask). I am a comparison shopper, been to other places & keep bringing my car back here. Highly recommend. read more

I am extremely pleased with their services and price. Have gone there a couple of times now and would strongly recommend them to anyone.

I went here to have my thermostat changed and radiator flushed. Service was great and car was ready well in advance of the promise time. I'm going to start going here for my car/truck maintenance. read more

I took my SUV to a GMC dealership and initally they said to repair the A/C would cost $125 but then later called to say it will cost over $1,400 and that I would also need to replace the front and rear brakes which were at 1/28th remaining and that would be about $600 more. I called Radiatorland and they said they would be a lot less than the dealership and use brand new parts. When I brought my car in, they took a look at it and they told me I don't need rear brakes, they were still 80% good but I would need to replace the front brakes. They fixed everything in the time frame they gave me and the final price was slightly below what they quoted me which saved me over $600 from the dealership quote. It is nice to know that there is an auto repair company out there that is doing what is right for the consumer. read more

Let me start by saying having car issues is a part of life .That being said, thank you for Radiatorland Greg ,Brandon & the Awesome staff they have worked on my engine ,two clutches (due to "MY "Jeff Gordon driving), my radiator most recently & regular matience.The past 6 years have been worry-free when it comes to honest work. They are not overpriced and are willing to work with you. It's always nice to know Radiatorland is there when I need them. read more

Thanks to Radiatorland my car passed smog and is running great. I am new to California and needed to get tabs for my 1993 Acura. Since my tabs were expiring I needed to get new ones right away. After failing a smog test and being told that my car needed a new engine or serveral thousand dollars of work by a service station I thought I would need to get a new car. Then I came to Radiatorland. The techs at Radiatorland looked at my car and the report from the service station and determined that a new engine was not needed and my car could be fixed for much less. After a couple hours work and some minor parts my car had passed smog and had new tabs. Radiatorland had saved the day and kept my car on the road for a very reasonable price. I am very happy with the results and the service was excellant. I couldn't have asked for more. read more

Had a recore done on an old Sunbeam radiator. (This was a referral from Rootes Group Depot, which does most of their radiator work there). Saved me $250 over the other shop I had considered, and they had it done the following day. Fast & efficient. Would recommend them for sure. BTW - Not sure about that 1 star rating - looks like a smear campaign to me. 1 star slam based just on a phone conversation, and not actual work preformed. Really? Granted I've only used them one time, but that seems harsh. read more

My '81 Fiat Spider 2000 radiator was overheating in bumper-to-bumper traffic. The electric cooling fan couldn't keep it cool enough & the engine oil was getting too hot. I decided to flush my radiator & drained only a half gallon of coolant out of it. I looked inside the radiator & half of the water passages were clogged. This little radiator felt like it had lead in it. The last time I had this done was by George's Radiator shop in Sunnyvale- out of business. Looked around & was referred to Radiatorland in Santa Clara. Greg at the front counter said it would need rodding. He also gave me a referral for brass radiator peacock. BTW- don't use Santa Clara hard water; use distilled water only in 50/50 coolant- thanks Greg! It must have been bad cause they had to rod it twice. I wish I was informed about the additional labor not being part of original quote. The bottom line is they fixed the overheating problem. The radiator held a gallon of 50/50 coolant. Now I'm cool! read more

We brought our car over for AC work. It was a difficult to find mix of a seal that needed replacing and a intermittant problem with the fuse box. They found and fixed both with much persistence! Great work! Thanks! read more
