    Rusty H.

    I should have known better than bring in my car during the lunch hour. They were slammed, and it was a bit chaotic finding parking and then even finding someone to speak with. There is no front desk area to check in. There were several people standing around waiting... for...? Their cars to be fixed? Picking up their cars? Who knows. So, like a sheep I joined the masses and stood there, waiting for anyone to acknowledge me. Eventually I saw how the flow worked. There are two garage doors. One is for tires, the other is for repairs. Today, the tire shop had one service guy working, Arturo. So even though I'm a little crabby in this review, I have to say Arturo is a hard working guy. He must have helped at least seven different customers who'd randomly pull in asking for a tire to be replaced, asking for more air... juggling them all so that no one ever got too impatient. Those of us waiting pulled ourselves tightly against the building which offered a whisker of shade... and then Arturo brought me a folding chair. Nice. I purchased Lionhart tires, and they seem to be well reviewed online. The price is definitely right, less than half of what the other discount tire shops are asking. So, it comes to this. The lower price you pay at Al's Auto Center comes with a small cost... but I brought my patience and a hat, and it was worth it. I recommend not coming during the lunch hours. My tires are two hours new and so far so good. As I drive on them in the future, if there are any problems I will update this review.

    Brought my lifted Duramax into Glendale Lube Center for an oil change and fuel filter replacement…read moreand immediately realized my truck was probably the smallest ego in the parking lot. Most shops see this thing pull up and suddenly everybody disappears to 'lunch,' but not here. Maria and Cesar handled it like absolute veterans. Maria was at the front desk looking so good I almost forgot why I came in there in the first place. Customer service was flawless she had the whole place running smoother than my truck after the service. Meanwhile Cesar looked like the final boss of diesel mechanics. Dude walked up to the truck like he'd wrestled lifted suspensions in hand-to-hand combat before breakfast. I'm pretty sure at one point they needed FAA clearance to work underneath my truck, but somehow they got the oil change and fuel filter done fast, clean, and without launching a socket into orbit. Truck came back running perfect, no leaks, no problems, and no 'check engine light surprise package' two miles later. Honestly Glendale Lube Center feels less like a lube shop and more like a Fast & Furious side quest. Great people, great vibes, and solid work. Maria and Cesar definitely made the experience legendary.

My truck is on a 12-inch lift with 42-inch tires, which basically means it's less of a truck and more of a mobile observation tower. Small children look at it the way people look at monster trucks at a county fair. Most oil change places take one look at it and suddenly say things like "our lift is down" or "we don't service... aircraft carriers." Not these guys. They walked out, looked up at the truck like they were inspecting a skyscraper, nodded, and got to work like it was a completely normal Tuesday. One of the techs climbed up there like a Navy SEAL scaling a building. Next thing I know, oil change done, no drama, no weird upsells, and nobody needed a ladder from Home Depot. Truck runs great, still sits high enough to change the weather pattern in Glendale, and I'll definitely be coming back. 10/10. If your truck is ridiculously tall and slightly irresponsible like mine, these are your people.

I noticed I had a headlight out when I left my apartment. I decided to drop by Del Mar Auto before I went home. I pulled up and was greeted as I got out of my car. I explained the situation to Hutch. Before I could even get my hood open Hutch returned with a lightbulb. He worked quickly and before I knew it, my headlight bulb was replaced. I paid my bill and made an appointment for other problems I noticed with my car. It's nice to go to someone that cares about your safety with the quality work that they do at Del Mar Auto. Honesty is not always found when dealing with mechanical issues. Easy to notice on the corner of Del Mar Boulevard and Allen Avenue. I think they care about my car as much as I do. I always try to make an appointment to save time.

All I can tell you is these guys know what they're talking about. And they don't make you feel small to help themselves seem like the experts. They're true masters at their craft.. radiators and auto services. Humble and incredible execution EVERY TIME!. And talk about nice as can be. I've been to many mechanics around LA, many with 5 star ratings. All bad. One wanted to replace my ENGINE, kid you not, because THEY put my thermostat ($20 part) back in upside down and it caused an overheat condition! Most house moms don't know any better. "Oh my blinker fluid is low?" Avoid the f around and find out shops! They're out there, lurking. Take my word for it. Give yourself PEACE OF MIND & COME TO DEL MAR AUTO where they literally treat you like family! Excellent Excellent Excellent!!
