The service was quick and everyone was very nice. The price was also very fair and they took care of my car.

I've been going to Takeda Enterprises for years. Even when owners changed and they moved to Torrance, I stuck with them. Mike, the original owner pops in from time to time. Great service and decent cost. I trust them. read more

We've been on a long hunt to find a local mechanic to service our Toyotas and happy to have finally found this place! 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! read more

Quick analysis of issue. Work done with great care and satisfaction. Did not cost a lot ... great value for the work done.

My my the apple has fallen far from the tree... I took my car in for a minor break job and faulty AC unit. Although they fixed both, 2 other issues popped up that was clearly things they didn't put back correctly. When I brought it up to them, the dude was standoffish and wouldn't even entertain the idea it could've been his fault. It's not like I was asking for free stuff that was unrelated... his attitude and terrible customer service is dragging the Takeda name down. read more

Takeda car shop has been reliable and super friendly. We feel like our cars are in great hands with them and we receive honest and valuable service. Natalie in particular has gone above and beyond to support us and has been super helpful and knowledgeable. The level of customer service plus the reliable service to make sure our cars are in great shape is definitely making customers like us want to continue with them for many years to come. read more

Went in to check out a potential oil leak. The mechanic and Natalie were great and made the process easy. The mechanic checked out my car two separate times and answered every question that I had. They didn't charge anything to check my car out. I offered to pay something and they declined. Any time I've gotten a free diagnostic, it has felt like there was no effort to really figure out the problem. I didn't have that experience at Takeda at all. I felt like if there was a problem they would've found it (because they answered all of my questions and explained why they don't think there's a leak). Positive experience. I'll be back when I need work done. read more

My car symptoms started when I did a hard break at stop light while turning slightly left. After that, I was experiencing vibration & noise whenever I turn my wheel left. The staff test drive my car to verify symptoms. Then inspected under the car. It looks like brake dust shield was out of place which was causing the problems. They were able to fix it free of charge with no inspection fee. I feel sense of relief that problem was resolved and it wasn't anything worse. I'm very thankful for their service! read more

Amazing!!! They always do a great job and a place I can trust! Keep it up and I don't ever mind making the drive out here for this kind of service!!! read more

Takeda did an amazing job with my repair. After someone hit my driver-side mirror, their insurance tried to push a used part that was a different color and wanted to simply paint it to match my car. Natalie went above and beyond to help me through the entire process and made sure I received a brand-new part instead. The service at Takeda is truly next level. Fair pricing, transparent communication, and consistently great work. I also get my cars serviced here and highly recommend them. read more

The search for a good, honest mechanic is finally over. Takeda Enterprises is great and honest! They gave me an estimate, which is way less than the dealer. Natalie is very nice and knowledgeable. She answered all of my questions. I made an appointment and after I dropped off my car, it was ready in a couple of hours. She said my brakes are still good and the transmission fluid exchange didn't require as much oil so I ended paying less than the original estimate. And now you have a customer for life. Great service and excellent communication! Everyone in my family takes their cars to Takeda Enterprises for service. read more

Very belated review, but wanted to give a shout out to this shop for being so awesome! Car was doing funky things on way to work electric wise and they were able to squeeze me in within a limited time frame and fixed the problem within that time frame, with a smile and no attempts to upsell. Thank you Natalie and Juan!! You guys are a great team and I appreciate you. read more

Took in my Q50 to replace my turbos I luckily found Takeda. Mechanic was very helpful answered all my questions. Price was great and I got my car back pretty quick specially for such a big job. Thank you ! read more

Amazing customer service! I appreciate their clear communication and customer service. Great repairmen and staff!

Thankful to find Takeda Enterprises here at Yelp!! team here is trustworthy and will help you out with your vehicle concerns. Natalie was very responsive and transparent with estimated costs, no surprises. Their estimated time of when vehicle service will be done is on point! I will definitely come back here for automotive mechanic business! Thank you Takeda Enterprises!! read more

Takeda Enterprises - Car maintenance time review to follow - Auto Repair Near Me - Torrance, California

See all

Battery issue with my wife's Subaru & dealer's quote was way too expensive. Searched local repair shops via yelp app. I chose Takeda Enterprises because they were the only one came back to me with accurate quote and specific details. My wife took her car same day and received amazing services. I truly appreciate their honest and fast service! read more

This review is overdue. About a month ago, a piece of the plastic cover on the undercarriage of my car broke and needed it removed. I reached out to a few autoshops on Yelp for a quote and some said they couldn't perform the job or gave me an estimate of $75 and above. Takeda responded to me saying they can do the job no problem free of charge. I went to their shop expecting some sort of bait and switch, but I was gravely mistaken. They stayed true to their word. They took care of me and better yet, instead of removing the plastic piece that broke, they repaired it. After this experience, I will definitely be a future customer for Takeda Enterprises. Honesty and goodwill goes a long way especially for autoshops where bad practices runs rampant. Thank you guys! read more

Took my car in for an oil change. Great service and transparency. I asked them to check my brake fluid, brakes, cabin and engine air filter. They let me know what needed to be replaced and cost break down. The prices are the best in the area. Second time getting service and I would recommend. read more

They showed pictures and video of whats needed to be repaired. Really Good Service. They showed me (diagnostics, no charge) what was needed before beginning work. read more

Updated review Stopped by for a rear brake change, rotor install, and brake flush. Love the new place; more lifts and more space. Although their location changed but their top notch customer service still remains the same. I highly recommend this place. Honest pricing, prompt service, and high customer service. What can you ask you. read more

Great everything!!! Service was on time, appointment was scheduled, no upselling, car was completely fixed. Also, tremendous customer service. read more

I got recommended by friend for the shop. Brought my 2015 Camry to get the engine light warning resolve. Natalie is very with communicating with me of what the mechanic is seeing in the issue over text. The bill came out lower what I have in my head. Very good service and would recommend the shop to friends and family. read more

Great service! They respond promptly to quotes and it's very easy to schedule a service appointment within a few days. I would recommend calling or messaging them to schedule before going there because the lot is small and shared by several businesses so it can get crowded. Prices are very reasonable, much better than any dealership. I will definitely bring my car here again for future work. read more

All of a sudden my car would not start. I suspected the battery and that was confirmed by the tow trcuk driver. I called around to see who replaced batteries. Takeda sent out to get the correct battery and had it installed within the hour. They were professional, efficient and a pleasure to work with. read more

Been bringing my vehicles to Takeda for the last 8months, service is exceptional, they always let you know what is needed and what is not. Some of my co-workers also brought their vehicle here and was amazed with their level of service. Thanks Takeda, you got a customer for life. read more

**Right when you get into the plaza, turn right, then go straight** Don't be silly like me and drive in a circle. My friend recommended this place. I've been going to the dealership for years now, and I wanted to see if this would be cheaper and faster. And it is much faster than the dealership but in terms of the cost, I am not sure yet. There is a very small waiting area with a couch and Wi-Fi if you want to work. They were able to address my concerns. read more

The rear brakes that I bought still make this awful sound even though I took the car back in for them to look at a second time. I haven't gone back since for other work. Decided to take my business elsewhere. read more

I've wasted a lot of money and time going to other places. My friend recommended me coming here and I couldn't be happier. Not only are they friendly but they're honest too. Prices are very reasonable and the only thing wrong was not coming here sooner. read more

Found Takeda through yelp and they were great. We had a last minute check engine light come on and wanted to get it fixed before the next day. Called a few places, but they needed an appointment to look at the car. Takeda was friendly and offered to look at the issue. They found the problem and by chance they had the part in stock. It took about 15-20 minutes to fix and the price was fair. They're an honest mechanic that we can trust. They'll be our new go-to auto shop. read more

Been going to Takeda for many years. Highly competent and trustworthy service, never have a doubt about whether I'm getting scammed with unnecessary service and Natalie at front desk is wonderful, always friendly and goes above and beyond. read more

I've been going to Takeda for the last 7 years back since Michael owned it and they were in Gardena. He was always honest and fair in his pricing, which is why I always went back to him . He sold it to some new guys now. So far they have been fair and have taken care of my vehicles. It's hard to find honest mechanics, so I'm glad I feel I can trust them. read more

I am so happy Takeda is back!! Maybe they merged with an existing other location or something - but same great service and quality of work! Natalie has taken such good care of me on a couple of occasions- always going the extra mile to help connect me with who or what I need. She has the highest integrity to do right by the customer! Takeda san, Doozi yoroshiku onegai shimasu! read more

Hmmm. Didn't work for me. They only are able to work on certain types of cars, so beware.

Very helpful and don't over charge! The women that i spoke on the phone with is super kind. Can't be mad at great service

I needed a headlamp bulb replaced on my Prius, and the dealer said it would be a 4 hour wait for service with an appointment. Mikey took care of it with 10 minutes. I will certainly be back when I need routine maintenance. I can see why this shop has earned such amazing ratings! Thank you Natalie & Mikey! read more

This business has great customer service and pricing. Highly recommend this place! You won't be disappointed.

They Moved! Even closer to my house now. Best mechanics ever! Took the car in for an oil change and they saw us right away. Great Service and now an even better location. read more
