The most honest, kind, and caring auto shop I have ever been to. This is the only shop I trust working on my BMW because I can see the pride they take in every car that comes in. The guys at auto Mechanic Services cannot be beat in quality or price. My girlfriend and I have been coming here for years and I will bring every car I ever own back to them. Stop by and see for yourself. read more

Auto Mechanic Services - Auto Repair Near Me - Lake Forest, California

First review ever and I had to write it. I am an honest truthful guy and this is the worst experience ever. Went it for a smog check with a coupon mailer around 1230 and Owner and crew were having lunch. I showed him coupon and he explained they were eating lunch. I agreed to wait but the owner started arguing me about what time he told me to come and about lunch time. All I asked on phone was what time he closed. He never disclosed "lunch time" and told me this is his shop and not to disagree. I turned around and left and I could hear him yelling Leave my shop! Never again. Simple smog check but the worst customer experience ever. Went next door and paid $20 extra but no drama! read more

Well... this might be a first for ANYONE who has been to see a mechanic!! But I've probably found my autoshop for life today! First of all, I went in because my brake fluid light was on and my brake pads had "3100 miles left before service" was needed. So I thought... have brake fluid flushed, and get a quote for pads/rotors/etc... Long story short, Nima checks out my car for a few minutes... then comes back and SHOWS me: "Your pads are almost brand new! And your brake fluid is clean! You dont need anything done!!" Lesson learned: Dont listen to your car nor the stealerships quoting you an absurd amount for unnecessary service. I suggest you find an honest mechanic first (like I did today) and go from there. If you are in the LF area, read the other reviews and you'll see Im not the first one who has praised this shop for honesty and definitely wont be the last! Thank you again Nima!! Sorry for wasting your 15mins! PS. the Stealership actually did quote me about $2500 for the complete brake job I thought I needed today. So yeah... so much for Condition Based Servicing (CBS). read more

Nima is a honest mechanic with very reasonable prices. My smog took all of 10 min. This is my go to place for all 3 of our cars. Give him a try. read more

I'm really sad to change my review. I thought these guys were honest, good priced and fair. Well, it turns out that's all false. They use used car parts, used coolant. I paid to have my bearing replaced, now it makes noises. My husband came to had his coolant replaced, now the AC doesn't work at all. We paid to fix his starter, that lasted a day, doesn't work. We came out of there with more problems then what we came in for. Ask yourself, why are they so cheap? You get what you pay for. I'm all about a good bargain but not at the expense of more problems. Also found little metal pieces around my battery, it's like they go in and "fix" something at a good deal and also mess something up so that you come back for more over and over. Bad deal guys! Stay away! read more

I came here for the first time for a smog check. Fast, simple, pricing as advertised. Very professional, would highly recommend.

My first time at this mechanic shop and It will not be my last for sure. Fantastic customer service from both Aurash and Nima. Very professional with honest estimates and fast turnaround time. I took my Lexus IS 250 there for oil and brake pad change; Nima worked on my car and got everything done in no time. At the time of check out he gave me a detailed report of what he did and what needs to be done in future. They also have a comfy room that you can seat and enjoy your coffee with half/half while they are working on your car. :) I will defiantly recommend this place to all my friends and family. I would even give them another extra star just for Nima's expertise, he builds custom off road trucks, they looked awesome. read more

Reliable, honest service. I will be taking my car here from now on! Went for a smog check and he mentioned a few things that needed repair but no pressure at all. Was able to bring it back later and got it fixed quickly at a great price. read more

I found this shop on Yelp in an early morning car emergency situation and drove in The owners are extremely fair, reasonable and very nice people and I had a great experience! My car was fixed in less than a few hours. Highly recommended, thank you! read more

Easy to work with, fast and very affordable. I called the same day and it took only 15 min from the time I got there to finish the smog check on my Prius. Thank you! read more

Great place for your vehicle to get repaired. They have honest service and honest prices and are quick. I am tired of getting gauged by local shops and I will be back with my families vehicles for more service here!! read more

I don't normally write reviews, but here I am so strap in your safety belts and prepare yourselves and let me tell you a thing or two about this mechanic shop here. NOT ONLY do they provide the kind of customer service that we all want from an auto repair shop, which by the way is absolute honesty, integrity, moral standings, and fast work. They also give you the peace of mind that your vehicle, no matter how challenging the task, will be taken care of by the deadline which they give. Neema is always extremely energetic and you can tell from the way he carries himself that he is confident in his knowledge and he is ambitious and passionate about the work that he puts into these cars for the people that this business begins to build a relationship with. Time and time again, as I'm sure you have all felt the same, I have been taken advantage of by corporate chains such as Discount Tires and Ramona Tire on any kind of repair costing me well over $700 every time on even the simplest of repairs. Mind you that my car is just a 2004 Honda Civic. But LITERALLY every time I would take my car to one of the corporate chains, I would always end up giving my left leg just to drive my car out of the garage. Arash is so friendly and compassionate and his sarcasm is one to look out for, but he is one to always take care of you just as you think a father to take care of a child, he does the same with his customers. Now lets talk cash. It's cheap, I'm not even gonna bother writing or giving an example. The fact that they don't take advantage of you and lie to you even if you have NO CLUE what is going on with your car is enough to sell what they're offering. They will not lie and I can say that with the highest level of confidence in my heart. Even if they offer two different parts at a higher price, they'll suggest the lower price item and tell you that there won't be a difference in the car and so far, that has been without a doubt a true statement. See!! They're so good I said I wasn't going to give an example, but I just had to because of the ethics and friendliness they hold in the center of their business. Thank you Arash and Neema, I appreciate you both and I know that my family appreciates the work you do for us all so very much. read more

Getting a smog check is not my fave thing to do on a Saturday afternoon. Thank goodness I found these guys and a coupon that made things affordable. It was a quick & pleasant experience. read more

Came here for a basic smog check... used a coupon for a total of $30 which included the certificate! Got right in and was out of there in 15 minutes! Great service! Will be happy to refer people and even feel good about bringing my cars in when they need any repairs! read more

I recently had my brake pads and rotors replaced here. I needed it done quickly and randomly came here since it is close to where I live. Nima responded to my messages quickly and the job took about an hour. Not only was the price reasonable, Nima and his crew were friendly and did a wonderful job. read more

My brother introduced me to these guys they are so friendly and their prices are so fair. I drive from Encino to here in order to fix me car. Their mechanic Is so knowledgeable that can diagnose the problem right away. I bring both my car here every time. I recommend these guys 100%. I'll Promise you will be happy with the outcome. read more

I took a car in for a smog check, which went smoothly, and without incident. The one star is for a perceived dishonesty on the part of the mechanic. I will edit this review if I end up being mistaken, but after the smog check, I was told my brakes were in really bad shape, and needed new rotors etc. He even gave me a quote. I'm always skeptical of mechanics and their ethics, or lack thereof, so took my car to another place, one with a known track record of honesty that I was aware of, and had him look at my breaks as well. Nope, he said. Brakes, rotors, all fine. He did suggest I have them checked again after three more oil changes, as they would likely need service by then. If, when I do get them checked again, they turn out to be bad, as suggested by this place, I will change my review, but it's been a few thousand miles since then, and not a squeak or grind to be heard. Still as strong as ever. read more

Came down with a case of flat tire on my new Mazda while driving in to work. Auto Mechanic Services took it in and got everything taken care of. I went with new tires that they recommended--it's been over a year since then and I haven't had a single problem. Price was perfectly reasonable and service was done in 20 minutes! Who can complain about that? read more

Smog check for $30 out the door with certificate! That's a deal in my book. It's fast, convenient and a great deal. Not sure about other services but given the reviews left behind, this might just be a hidden gem. My van is almost due for a 60k and I'm willing to give this shop a shot. I'll leave an updated review then. read more

Nima was friendly and honest mechanic and found the problem quick. the price was very reasonable. highly recommended

Came here on the recommendation of a friend. He had a great experience. I concur with his assessment. Came in right when they opened 3 minutes later my smog check was being done. Very friendly. Great price at $30. Have been paying $70at a different spot. Very happy with this shop and their excellent customer service. read more

I highly recommend this shop from the office secretary to the main mechanic Nima these guys fix my problem quick and easy when o3 other shops couldn't save some money go here read more

Highly recommended. Great service from honest, friendly, and professional technicians. I brought my car to Auto Mechanic Services for a cylinder head gasket replacement on my BMW, and am very happy with the work. I will likely return for more/other maintenance work, and I know I can count on this shop to have the appropriate tools on hand, and technical knowledge to get things done properly. Thank you! read more

This place was awesome! Great deal on an oil change and even filled my windshield wiper fluid for me. Aurash was so helpful and nice I will definitely be coming back here for any car issues! read more

This place is WONDERFUL! Seriously the best service with the most stand-up guys. Nima is extremely honest to the point that he didn't take his old customers (from the previous shop) when he opened the new shop (I found out about the new shop randomly). They are honest, extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. They don't sell you anything that you don't NEED and try to BS you. Give them a try, you will definitely not be disappointed. read more

The best place to get your car serviced. If you are looking for a place to trust believe me this is the place. The staff is so friendly and so helpful especially Nima is the guy you need to have. Thank you so much for taking care of my car. read more

Service was outstanding, the two men that I meet that work are very nice, honest and explain everything to you clearly so you can understand what is being done. I felt sure that there were taking care of my car problems and was getting the best price. I will be telling my friends about the outstanding work these guys do and their honesty. read more

I sent multiple shops a quote request and Nima the owner was the very first one to respond and had the lowest price for alignment. I came in and he asked why I needed it and he even went for a drive with me to make sure it was what I needed. Turned out I needed balance instead and eventhough there were other issues he mentioned, he never pushed me to do other services until I was ready to come back. The front service guy Arash is also very helpful and friendly. I am so impressed with their work ethic. I can tell they love their job and makes sure every customer walks out satisfied. I will tell my friends and relatives about this place for sure if you want honest, fast mechanics this is the place! read more

I called multiple places and this shop gave me the lowest price by far. I'm actually not leaving a review for the pricing I received, it's actually for the service I received. The gentlemen up front was very friendly and even dropped me off at my parents house a mile away instead of me having to pay for an Uber!! That was pretty awesome. I'll definitely be working with these guys for any auto needs and referring family over. read more

I've only been here one time, but I plan to go back. There are a few things I really liked about these guys. They were quick to help me and worked efficiently. They also told me the prices of every service immediately after mentioning it, without me needing to ask, which takes a lot of stress out of the car maintenance process. read more

This is hands down the best Auto shop in OC. Nothing beats their customer service from start-finish and their prices are very low leaving you feeling like you got a fair/good deal. I have never felt such trust in a shop. They seem very genuine and honest which I think can be hard to find. With something as important as your car you need to feel comfortable and confident with your mechanic. These guys will not up-charge you or make up problems. They are the real deal and have me and all of my families trust. read more

Nima and Aurash are great. They are honest and super professional,in addition they don't sell you anything that you don't need. They changed my battery free of charge yesterday because it was sold by them last year. They guarantee their services with no excuse. I would totally recommend this shop's services to anyone who is looking for great services with great attitude. Thank you guys read more

Went here to get a smog check because of all the other great reviews. I was not disappointed at all. He got me out in about 10 minutes or so. Great job!! Will probably use them for other auto services next time. read more

I went to get a smog check, everyone was so nice and the job was done fast and efficiently.

Does honesty combined with excellent very timely service still exist? YES...yes, I'm happy to say it does here.

Give em a try and see for yourself. Best, Rob read more

Went in because they offer the great smog a deal for only $21.75. What I didn't know is that my fuse had blown to my computer login in my Psion XP and that quickly check for all the errors in my fuses and fix the fuse and got the reading from the computer. It was a hard-working team very proud of their work will absolutely go back there again for any smog check because they worked hard and solve a problem that was right in front of them at absolutely no additional cost. Very very pleased with the service. read more
