Called regarding daughters 2020 Equinox suddenly unable to start. Vehicle screen kept saying to depress brake pedal to start. Called and talked to Brian, explained problem. He said would be at house between 2 & 3 pm, and would text when on way. He texted and let me know he was enroute. Arrived at 2:50 pm. Very pleasant, and professional. Worked for just over an hour, found problem, and fixed issues. Will definitely call again with any vehicle problems. read more

People, listen to the bad reviews on here, they reflect my experience exactly. Not responsive at all and no respect for other people's time. Professionalism out the window here. There are many mobile mechanics in LA, it's not hard to find someone better. read more

Two things that really make or break a customer relationship in today's economy is communication and customer service. Both of these, which completely failed on my recent attempt to call out to Showtys. I woke up early Saturday morning 6/16/2018 to my car not starting but it was trying to turn-over. After many failed attempts to get my car started, I called AAA but it wasn't the battery. So I, based on my one past good experience with Showtys, decided to call Showtys for a Mobile Mechanic visit. It was Father's day weekend and was in a bind but had no reason to doubt follow-up. I called service shop I was familiar with but they were closed and the AAA's recommendation shop was closing at noon. But, I waited, and waited, and waited. I had sent Showtys, as requested on my phone call to them a text with the required information, but never received a call, never showed up, never even called to apologize for flaking. Sunday then came around, and I figured Oh well, maybe they will call me Monday morning. Out went my Father's day plans and Monday came and went. Now it is Tuesday and I finally had my car towed to a service location. Will delete Showty's from phone book and if you are smart, then so will you! read more

Replaced my engine fans, water pump and fusible link in about 2 1/2 hours. He is definitely cheaper than other mobile services out there. I was quoted $700 by another place without the fusible link (which they said couldn't be done by a mobile service) and for half the price. My new go to mechanic. read more

My busy work schedule doesn't allow me to leave my truck at a repair shop all day. I called days in advance to schedule an appointment to have him replace my drivers side window regulator. Bryan and I agreed upon Friday at Noon. Friday morning I sent him a text to confirm our appointment for that day. Everything seemed to be going well up until that point. It's 11:56 a.m. when I get a text from Bryan asking how late I'll be at work because he's running late. When I replied asking how late he's running I received no response. I replied with another text explaining I leave at 4:30 to go to my other job and cannot be late. No response. I called Bryan at 12:04 p.m. to ask how late he's running. He said about 2 hours behind schedule that he could be there by 2:30 p.m. to work on my truck, that it shouldn't take more than an hour to fix. I agreed and waited. 2:30 comes and goes and not even a phone call or a text message. Once again I called him back at 3:07 p.m. and had my call declined after it rang twice. At this point I text him asking him to be straight with me whether or not he can do the repair the same day. He said he'd be done in about 10 minutes and that he'd work with me on the price or we could reschedule. I said as long as the repair was done by the time I leave it's fine. Bryan said he'd text me in 20 minutes and I never heard from him. Poor customer service and poor communication. There's no reason I had to be chasing after him for information. Lesson learned. Save your time and look elsewhere or schedule appointments at your own risk. read more

What a stand up guy Bryan is. With times being tough right now with covid-19 money is tight and costly repair came up on my BMW. I hit up Bryan just out of curiosity expecting something out of my budget given it's a euro car. To my surprise gave me a quote way under any of the shops. When the appointment it took the amount of time he said it would and he didn't hit me with any up sale whatsoever. Can't say many mechanics will settle for the quoted job only. My go to mechanic from now on! Attached is the before pic of my motor and the after! read more

On 5/20/2019 I needed to have a battery replaced on the spot in Woodland Hills. I do not have triple AAA, so this service was spot on! I simply called and he was available. I then texted him my vin and photo of my battery and within 2-hours I had a new battery installed and I was on the road again. I can't begin to tell you how convenient and price effective this service is! I did not need to pay for a tow or any kind of convenience fee. I just paid $140 for everything which included a 2-year warranty! YAAAS! As a woman I was completely happy with the service I received and would use this service again. read more

Terrible at communicating, put old parts in my BMW, was too arrogant to come back to take a second look, stating that he knows his work is good. I had to actually go to BMW to get a diagnostic test to PROVE that he put old parts in, once that happened he fixed it in no time. He made me buy another part to my car before I received the diagnostic test.. so I never needed the part but he kept it and kept my money. He's a thief, rude, does not answer your phone calls and will leave you hanging for days. Did the same with my sisters as well, gave my sis old parts also. Do NOT go to him. MaJor thumbs down read more

Excellent service .. on time , the best price I could get.

So far , the best choice I could find in The Valley. Y además habla perfecto español .. read more

This guy knows his work. Very professional and everything was done in a timely manner. He's mobile so he worked on my car while I was at work! No time wasted in between. no down time and no days without a car! He showed up, gave me my estimate, worked on my car and in about an hour it was all said and done. Would definitely recommend. read more

Thank you for coming out and giving great service and prices! You are very reliable and you do great work!

He is the best mechanic I've known for over 10 years and he is very knowledgeable of the work he does. He gives the best prices! He has done oil changes, and has upgraded my car with new parts...he left my car looking and running great (see the attached picture for before and after) I highly recommend. read more

Showtys Auto Repairs - Auto Repair Near Me

My Bmw wouldn't start and it it was such a hassle to take it to a shop. Showty's came to my home fixed my car and it was way less than what my local shop was going to charge me. Great, convenient service. read more

Bryan gave me a fair price, not like other mobile mechanics who incline to charge almost as high as the mechanic shops (although these other mobile mechanics don't have shops to pay rent for). Although he was late, Bryan did a good job and I will be using him again in the future when I need him. read more

NOT SO GOOD. Hired Bryan to do an inspection on a diesel pick up I was buying from SAS Motors. I do think he is a good mechanic based on other reviews, but when it comes to diesels he didn't deliver confidence to me. he just plugged in scanner and explained some basic codes to me. I could have done that with my torque app or car gauge pro app and phone. what I was looking for was someone paying full attention to the entire engine behavior. he didn't bother to check blowby, or do a cranking cylinder compression test to have an idea. an injector buzz test could had been done in a few minutes, the worst part was when I test drove the truck he was talking to seller the whole time instead of paying full attention to engine sound and transmission/torque converter sound. they were talking about reviews the whole time, I had to interrupt their talk to ask him about this clanking noise under load. he had no answer. in general I felt he had no knowledge on diesels. anyways it's all on me , because I hired him, I did not want to be rude and fire him on the spot, so just paid him and thank him, but this review is to help others that migth be needing a diesel inspection. and I'm sure he will learn from this case as well. the 4 stars is for respect as I'm sure he knows other stuff. read more

Had a flat on the side of the road and they pulled over to help. We actually locked our keys and phones in the car too so we weren't able to make any calls. He was beyond helpful and called the LA roadside assistance folks who were there in less than 5 minutes. If we hadn't had locked out keys in the car, he would have changed the flat for us too. We are SO grateful for this company!!! read more

Quick to respond when I need mechanical work. I am extremely satisfied with the outstanding service and quality of their work. I love how you can have the experts come to you with affordable prices and quality work. Bryan has been our honest and trusted family mechanic for many years and will always be there for us. Refer him to everyone you know, it will be the best gift you can give someone. Thanks again Bryan for all you do for us. read more

I hired Brian for one repair and he showed up on time and performed an alternator replacement quickly and for a fair price. He completed the work and asked if I would help him out by posting a positive review on Yelp, which I did. The following week I contacted him for another repair and had a completely different experience. He never picked up his phone, didn't respond to voicemails, responded via text but days later, said he would arrive for a repair but didn't, again didn't respond to calls or texts. He is unreliable and I regret counting on him in the first place. I suggest finding a more reputable company . read more

Quick response, there within an hour, my car was fixed rapidly at a fair price. They were extremely helpful and professional. I was back on the road in no time after the issue was resolved. Accepts cash and Venmo, which is really convenient when you're broken down on the side of a road. read more

He has been fixing my car for the past few years and i have been more than Patient with him. he has the WORST customer service I have ever experienced. it is nearly impossible to get ahold of him and he will say he is coming a certain day and will never show up. I have spent many days waiting around for him to show up and he doesn't even take the time to call you to tell you he's not coming. Don't let you have a question Or complaint about his work he will ignore you. my sister called him to fix her brakes I called him one minute later and he sent me right to voicemail. i also believe he used old parts because he use to show you the receipt and the old parts that he took out but he never does it anymore . plus he has fixed my water pump and thermostat more than once over a year and a half timeftake And I hate to drive so its no way They need to be replaced that often. He just fixed my breaks and i feel like they are slipping like they are used or done wrong. He also just fixed my thermostat and it wasn't done correctly so it's leaking antifreeze. I told him three days later that my antifreeze was completely gone and I see a leak and can he look at it. I have been trying to get him to come back and fix it for over a month and he will says he's coming and never come.. I had another mechanic come look at it and he said the thermostat wasn't sealed properly and to have him reseal it since I paid him. but he never came and completely ignored me. When you cuss him out or threaten to leave a review then he will answer and tells you this crazy excuse. stay away from this guy. Sure he may know how to fix cars I will give him that. But his lack of communication and hes ego is gonna put him out of business. I'm not here to spread lies or bash anyone everything I am saying is the truth and he needs to humble himself before life does. Now I have to pay someone to fix my thermostat over after he just fixed it last month. Not okay. read more

Brian saved my car!!! He and his team are awesome. My friend is driving my 2004 VW Wagon while I am in Europe and she called me the other day to let me know that the car is broken beyond repair. The clutch was broken and she barely made it to a mechanic who told her that the repair would go into the thousands and wasn't worth it. When she called me to inform me that the car is done I told her to carefully drive back home and I would call around to see if there is some meachanic out there who could save the car. I immediately jumped on Yelp and called 10 different places (via Skype from Europe) and eventually spoke to Brian. After I explained the problem to him he said to call him back within 20 minutes and he would check if he could find a clutch for a reasonable price. When I called him back he said that he found a clutch and could do the job the very next day at my friends house. The next day he and his colleague came to my friends house and spend the day there exchanging the clutch and doing some other repairs. All in all this cost me less then a quarter of what we were originally quoted by the other mechanic. The car is now in great shape again and no more problems. All in all an awesome service for the best price I could find. Very reliable, great communication and customer service! I highly recommend this place!!! read more

This guys isn't reliable at all contacted him couple weeks ago said he would come take a look at my car never did I decided to give it a second try he was suppose to show up today never did don't recommend this place read more

Texted on a Saturday night and got my fuel pump replaced Sunday morning. Great mechanic with very reasonable rates and prompt service. Replaced the fuel pump quick and easy and came to me to do the job. Couldn't have asked for anything better. Will most definitely be using their service again read more

This guy supposedly fixed my sunroof but only left it worst ive called him ,text him. His voicemail says text for a faster responce but i guess thats only if he is making a profit off of u not if he owes u an explanation. Seems professional at first but to his convenience i paid him for the work and the work was not done properly. read more

Hands down best mobile tech in all of California, nicest and most professional BMW mechanic. I have a 2008 bmw 328i and had problems with the starter. He come to my house without a problem. Didn't charge me for that. He finished in about 2 hours and car was perfect. I recommend him to everyone. Very humble gentlemen! read more

Great customer service and also he was on time he was here the day he promised thanks a lot for your great service

I actually took the time to download this Yelp App, for the second time. The first time war to write an review for amazing service where a substantial tip wasn't enough, and this time where it just poor business edict. I used these guys prior to fix a truck that was a no start issue. He was certain that my diagnosis was way off and it had to be something else which after dropping 400 bucks for labor and me purchasing the part came out to a little over 500 bucks. When they left and my wife used the vehicle to take the kids to school... no start. I called to see if they can come back out and I just got a I don't know what to tell you and him not wanting to come back out, but to let the, know and they can see if he can find the time. The truck was at family's house and yesmit wouldmhave been a drive but I would have made it worth it as I gave a little extra the first time... Well when reaching out I got a who's this? Let me call you back. So after that mo call back, tried texting.... same deal what's it for.... no response. Just say your booked or you don't have time? To not respond is unprofessional! Yes! I agree you are right 5 stars!!! So nice the first time when it comes to the first time I would have wrote the same review... but what happens when the job that was performed doesn't work??? What happens when they didn't figure it out, will they come and correct the issue for you??? Outcome: took it to Pepboys paid the $75 dollar fee after having it towed and it turned out to be a fuse. Yes!!! A 30 cent fuse! I kick my self in the butt for not checking fuses myself the first time. read more

I have called showtys auto repair twice, to work on 2 different vehicles. I would recommend Showtys Auto Repairs to anyone looking for a reliable mechanic. He's fast, and reliable, he's my go to mechanic now. He has the cheapest prices around. (I shopped around before calling.) the customer service was on point, and I wouldn't waste my time posting a review, but I feel this company truly deserves it because of the service they provided both times. Thanks again. read more

This man is nothing short of amazing. Not only was he willing to tackle a very large and rare project but he also figured out every way to make it work when no one else would. My 1971 military truck was not an easy fix for any mechanic but he came out time and time again fixing every single thing that was having a problem. I cannot believe I have finally found a mechanic that is this knowledgeable with everything from diesel trucks all the way to eletric cars. I have called him out well over a dozen times and he has had so many custom brake lines fabricated and hydraulic pumps made that I was thinking my bill was going to be over $5000 but when he asked me for payment at the end I felt as though I was short changing him because it was so cheap. Every estimate I obtained was more than five times the amount he ended up charging me and there is no way I will ever be able to repay him for all of the services rendered. 10 stars wouldn't be enough read more

Horrible engine swap on my 2003 Honda Accord. The car sounded better BEFORE the swap. Mechanic is rude and didn't bother to try to fix the issue with noises after the swap, didn't bother to see or fix all the stuff he left undone after we pointed out his mistakes! He left hoses unclamped and others disconnected, lost some of the screws and has the audacity to tell us that it's not his "job" to put things back together, his job was to only do the swap. What kind of a mechanic says something like that to a first time customer referred by one of his customers? Horrible customer service experience and expensive too. Brian is an arrogant and rude person to deal with, any mechanic would of taken the extra time to make things right. Feel Iike the job was rushed (done in one day) and done super sloppy, please people SAVE YOUR MONEY & don't go with this guy! I literally wasted $550 for nothing, now I have to look for another mechanic to fix what Brian didn't bother to fix, and spend more money.. really sad and upsetting! I can t even give this so called business one star, I'd give it a ZERO. Don't waste your time or money when there's BETTER mechanics out there! read more
