RIP brother Razi. Truly honest business man and a great person. Hope Razi's legacy at A-1 auto continues...

My WHOLE family has been Razi's customers for years! I'm now 18 years old and I bring in my car to him for anything and everything. He's been my mom's mechanic for a very long time. He's the most honest mechanic ever. We've never ever had a problem. Razi, the owner, makes sure everything's done right. His whole crew is awesome as well. He is honest and trustworthy, I can guarantee it. When he moved, we didn't care. We still drove all the way to Chino. Definitely worth going to. Literally my whole family uses his services! Both sides of the family! That should say something cause my parents have been divorced for years, yet they use the same mechanic! LOL! Highly recommend him! read more

I've never been to a car shop that makes me feel more at ease. They are super friendly and truly care about the customers. They remember everyone. I've changed my brakes, fixed alignment, & done an oil change and each time i've received excellent service. My only gripe would be that the time they quote for how long it'll take is always off...often by more than an hour. On the plus side they are super affordable, often times waiving the labor fee. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy mechanic. read more

Firstly, his name is RAZI not RAVI... He's a great mechanic and been my family's go-to guy for over 20 years, he's always honestly, fair & hardworking. No one likes going to a mechanic, but he's always made the experience pleasant, he's really nice & super funny as well... He's also got great referrals for the work he doesn't do (body shop, windshield repair, etc) highly recommended! read more

If you have issues finding a trustworthy mechanic..your worries are over Razi and his crew at A-1 Auto are very knowledgeable and will do expert work for the most reasonable price. I got the feeling that Razi loves his work and enjoys helping people not like the typical shady mechanics out there. read more

After 2 weeks of break change I had to go back to get the rotors resurfaced because it was making loud noises...they fixed it with no questions asked. Extra time spent -1 star read more

Best mechanic EVER! Razi is honest and does everything he can to save the customer money. There has never been or will be anyone like Razi. I send all my friends and family here and they can't believe how honest he is about the vehicles they bring in. He's amazing. Thanks Razi read more

Had my alternator changed on my Lexus today and they did a great job. Rifah is honest and true to her word I will definitely be a repeat customer and will refer my family as well .Thank you for the prompt service. read more

I could not find the phone no. to A-1 Auto Expert where I do take my car to be serviced. I called a friend and was told Razzi passed away, I am shocked and sadden to hear of this. I feel so bad for his wife and family. Such wonderful people, I am sure his crew at the car place will miss his barbecue for his employee's and customers. What a guy, so nice to his customers. I am taking my car there tomorrow (Friday) and hope I am treated the way I have been in the past and don't have any problems with the car problems I have. You will be missed Razzi and your singing will be missed too. He just loved to sing. read more

WOW!!! I'm so amazed by their CUSTOMER SERVICE and their HONESTY! My car has been skipping gears for a while so I thought it was the transmission oil that needed to be changed and they later told me it was something completely different. Other car auto repair shops would have done the oil change and charged for the both things but they didn't. They needed to order my part but I will only go their shop from now on. Very friendly people and you know your car is in good hands. I 110% recommend this place to anyone!!! read more

My father has been going to Razi since i was a little kid, i met Razi for the first time when i was about 9, My father owns a driving school has has always gone to Razi, He has always been honest and very reasonable, now that i am 34 i take my cars to him and have been going to him since i got my fist car at 16, my son will have his license in the next 6 years and i bet you can guess who his mechanic will be..... Thanks Razi!! read more

The best auto repairs store ever! Not only for the professional service but also the lady who is the boss managing the store. She is a very nice and awesome person! She takes care of her customers! Trust me! You car worth to do every service in here! I will definitely come back again! Thank you for everything ! read more

Razi gave me the best deal and was quick to fix my car's i wouldnt go anywhere else but there

Very helpful and provided great suggestions to keep my old 01 Accord running. Didn't push to fix anything that I didn't have to fix right away. Thank you. read more

This time I am giving this place a 5 star And I will come back for all my car maintenance So you ask,, what happened since your last oil change experience? Here is what happened: I went to a different place to get my car oil changed and they charged me for the full oil change price however they told me the oil filter was too tight so I needed to go back to the place that did my oil change to loosen it up I was quite annoyed because according to my male friends and my dad that they could easily loosen the filter with a screw driver Anyways I want to make sure my car is well taken care of so I am determined to get the oil filter done correctly ,,, I came back to razi and told him the situation He got it taken care of within 30 mins and charged me only 10 bucks to replace the filter ,,, to me, a person who doesn't know much about the cars I was very grateful and happy Now my car is maintained according to the Toyota manual and that's all it matters !!! So yes I will keep coming back :) read more

Service was friendly, I can't complain. However, they did not check my car after to see if it was still peforming the same way. I drove it home and it was ok for a while but then began to do the same thing. I need to take it back and I'm sure Razi will make sure it's done right. Fair pricing and decent wait time. read more

Great service, honest and friendly. Great with all Japanese makes and models. Family owned, their head mechanic Chris, seems very knowledgeable and honest. If they don't work on a certain make, or parts need to be ordered, he will tell you. I appreciate how upfront they are. read more

A-1 Auto Expert - Auto Repair Near Me - Chino, California

This mechanic is great. He is honest and fair. I've always had a hard time trust mechanics, but finding this one, I know that there are some good ones out there. If I ever move away from the chino area, I will probably take my car here for everything. read more

My dad bought my brother's first car (92 Prelude Si) from a dealer in Ontario. The dealer's name was Jay and he recommended Razi to us because that is where he took all the cars on his lot. My entire family has been going to Razi for the last 13 years. I have had My 99 Civic, 05 Civic Si, 07 S2000, 03 CL Type-S & my wifes 08 GTI all serviced here. Razi does great work for a fair price. Now if only Razi could work on motorcycles! I highly recommend him just make sure to get there early. His shop fills up quick. read more

Ravi was fair. Hate going to a car mechanic, but left feeling fine, not the normal I just got violated feeling. He didn't try to rip me off because I'm a female. read more

Very honest, helpful, friendly and fast service. I have a BMW 335i which has cooling issue and could not pin point what was wrong with the car. I am mechanically inclined and know when the shop knows their stuff or they are just trying to make up stuff. Within 20 minutes and without having an appointment, my car was diagnosed correctly as having faulty DME module and gave me name of a reputable and experienced local shop who is expert in these electrical issues to reprogram my DME. Thanks a lot and will defiantly come back here to give you guys more business. Highly recommended. read more

Great customer service, very honest people. I will recommend all my friends and family to this shop. I bought my car to the shop for service and expected to pay over $800 or more (price quote from different auto shops) but at the end I only paid $560, very happy that I can find a auto shop that I can trust. read more

These guys are exceptional! Their quote for the service I needed beat the competition by a large margin, and the quality of the work shows. They saved me a ton on parts as well, by figuring which parts HAVE TO BE manufacturer provided, and which others could be "generic" - for the generics, they searched through their network and got me unbelievable deals. I will note that they are working on transitioning new office staff recently that occasionally leads to inaccurate time estimates for service completion. But even then they are kind about it. They do good work, save you tons, and are kind / courteous in their communication. But YES, they are NOT PERFECT. :) read more

I read a lot of reviews before I decided to take my vehicle to A-1, and the reviews seem like they were telling the truth. This is really the kind of place you can trust. Leave your vehicle here and pick it up later, knowing that it's fixed (So far). Razi advised me that he would call me in an hour, and he called sooner then that. He also said that I don't need to replace the part but instead repairing it would cost a lot less and be just as good. I have to admit all these 5 stars people gave A-1 got me thinking. Perhaps they are family/friends but even if they are, they are telling the truth. read more

Razi provides great service. His prices are incredibly fair and he does great work. It was great dealing with him. I've always taken my car to the dealer because I could never trust a mechanic, but Razi has definitely changed my mind about that. read more

Razi is a Godsend! He is so knowledgeable. I took my BMW in on a busy Saturday and he took the time out to take me back and forth to my house while they worked on my car. I didn't know if they worked on BMWs but he did a great job at a great price. He doesn't just do repairs because its on the list for the mileage; he does the repairs IF NEEDED saving me $$$$$. Work is great so far. He told me if I have any issues to let him know and he will fix them. Also, as a woman it's invaluable being able to have a mechanic you can trust. I will be spreading the word! He has gained a loyal customer! Thank you thank you thank you! read more

Been coming here since Razi opened this location since my first car at 16. I still compare prices and Razi always wins. Fair treatment with prices and solutions for repair. read more

Razi no hassle easy going approach is the wining formula. He doesn't try to rip you off but rather helps you. I feel my car is in good hands when I drop it off. Best place in town! read more

Been coming in for years, they take care of all my cars. Very knowledgeable and fair prices, someone you can trust in doing the job right.

This auto repair shop is Awesome! I always go here and get my vehicle/s on time. Rifa is so nice and will give you a reasonable quote depending on what service you need. I highly recommend this shop and will continue going here. Keep up the good job! read more

Read the good reviews and this place was close to my job. I went in for an oil change and it was done in a half hour. The owner was very pleasant and he did not try to sell me additional service. The other people that were there seemed like loyal customers with smiles on their faces.....which was really weird to me since most people look grumpy in car shops. read more

An honest man and honest shop. Came here in august 12 to have my timing belt replaced and my water pump. They gave me an honest answer on the type of work that is to be done and the cost. No problems there. Fast forward a few months and the coolant was leaking indicating that the water pump was not installed properly. Took it to the shop and was informed that the pump would be covered by warranty (free to replace) and the check engine light that was showing up on my car was due to another problem and asked me if i wanted that fixed. I told him just to take care of the water pump, he did it with no cost. I got curious and checked the engine code with my own diagnostic device and it surely was as he described. We took his advice and replaced the part that he said would be causing the problem ourselves and everything was as good as new. Honest man, honest shop and quite helpful. read more

Great service and great prices! I've been coming to Razi for years. Chris Velazquez did an excellent job on my car and kept me informed of the status. They are highly recommended. read more

WOW! The service here was like no other! The quote was unbelievable and the work was performed and ready at the time they told me. I have a BMW 2011, the fact that they answered my questions and concerns, they also took the time to educate me on parts they would be using. Left here confident and will be coming back to have all services performed on my vehicle when needed. read more

Had my Tahoe towed here and needed a new engine. I didn't have repairs done here but Razzi the owner didn't charge me for a diagnostic AND let me leave my car overnight until I could get it towed the next day. Very friendly and very reasonably priced! I will be coming back when I can afford repairs. Thank you! read more

Great honest place. I take all my 7 cars to get maintained.(I have 4kids) wouldn't trust my cars anywhere else. Razi is the best!

Very helpful and honest. I would use them again and recommend them to friends. I was accustomed to using Pep Boys but not overly excited about going there. The last time I used their website appointment service I was told when I got there that they were overbooked and they wouldn't be able to get to my car for 3 hours. I think they just overload the schedule based on whoever shows up so setting an appointment is useless. I'll go back to A-1 for sure. read more

This is my second review of this place, and I can't say enough about it. Took my car in for maintenance work yesterday, and Rifah noticed my air filters (my Q50 requires 2) were damaged and ineffective due to poor work from another garage. Instead of trying to contact me, then order and wait for the parts, she just replaced them free of charge. Yes, free of charge! I tried to pay her for her costs, but she wouldn't have it. This is what makes A-1 Auto Expert a great place. They really care for their customers and for their reputation. I also want to let you know that they tell you when work DOES NOT need to be done. I had asked for a brake fluid flush, but instead of making a few quick bucks off of me, they were honest and let me know my brake fluid was in good condition. No work needed. Look at all the positive reviews of this place. It's no joke. Keep up the good work A-1 Auto Expert. Our community appreciates it. read more

Razi was very helpful, honest, and fair. I brought in my car for a front brake job, and his price was almost 50% less than what the dealer was charging. His shop was clean, and he informed me that my rear brakes still had at least 50% left on them, therefore no need to change them... Finally an honest auto mechanic near me, no wonder why he's so busy. If your having service done on your vehicle, bring it in early as they seem to get busier in the afternoons. I will definitely be going back to A-1 for future maintenance/repairs on my cars. read more

Razi is great, he's helped me out numerous times. He's a great guy. I highly recommend this place.
