Auto Pro Repair - My 1995 Jaguar xjs taken care of by Vic - Auto Repair Near Me - Glendale, California

I've been coming here for a long time now and it's been good. He was reliable for the most part with the work that he does and I feel that he gives fair (not great) rates. The only thing that really bugs me a lot about this place is that the guy is always late. I try to come here when it opens so that I can be first in line. But he is almost always 15 min late so this time around I came late and it's still not open. The phone number does not have an answering machine so even if I call there's no point in calling. I wish he had a business cellphone with him so he can at least let me know how late he is running... Edit: Waited close to an hour and still not here. I think this place just lost a customer :( going somewhere else now. read more

Really is as good as it gets here. My car wasn't starting yesterday due to what I thought was a fuel pump that needed to be replaced. I first called around a few places to get a quote on the repair. I was getting prices of 400, even 600 dollars. But then I called Auto Pro Repair and talked to a nice speaking man of the name, Vick. He said labor would be about $175. Well I figure that plus the price of a new fuel pump will probably be my best local price. Today I got it towed over to Auto Pro Repair. I wanted to make sure this was something that could get done today, and he said he would make it happen. For whatever reason, my car started when it got there. I don't know if something just got shifted on the way over there from the tow, or what, but it was working. None the less, Vic did a thorough check of anything that could possibly be wrong. About an hour later I receive a call from him saying everything looks normal and I can come pick it up. Any other mechanic could of gone ahead and tell me I need the fuel pump replaced and charge me hundreds of dollars. This is a man that's honest and cares. I asked him how much I owe him and he said don't worry about it. This is a true gem we have in our small town of Montrose. read more

Came in with a cylinder 2 misfire, left a couple hundred lighter with the truck running worse... Called Vic and he told me that he suspected it was going to be a bigger job but he wanted to try to save me some money, told me to bring it back in, was gonna be a big job... I took it to my regular mechanic instead (Alex's in Sunland) and she said there was one nut missing and the other was just sitting on the manifold, which had caused air leaks and accounted for the loss of power. I'd like to think Vic had a bad, careless day and this isn't as shady as it looks, but either way, I'll never take a vehicle to him again. read more

My car broke down 250 feet from this shop. The owner gathered what he needed for temporary repairs and then brought the car into the shop. He stayed late till 7:00 on a Friday to finish the job. He gave me lots of discounts. He even offered to have his wife give me a ride home while he worked on the car. Very nice people who care about the customer. read more

Vic is so friendly and the absolute best! I needed an oil change pronto and he was able to do it in 30 min, checked my tire pressures, and refilled my windshield washy fluid thinggy at such a good price. I'll definitely be recommending this place to my friends & fam and coming here for all my oil changes from here on out. read more

The most honest repair man in Montrose. I was referred by a family member that has taken multiple vehicles here. When have needing a repair, I have received a phone call and am aware of what is going on with my car every step of the way. One time my brakes were grinding and I thought I needed to replace them, an hour later I received a call saying I did not actually need new brakes; it was because of the cold morning. Simple and honest. read more

Vic is not the man. I'm new in town and am looking for a good mechanic near my home. I called this guy for a quote and he was down right rude. I asked him about a 50,000 service on my vehicle and just for him to inspect the car it's $150. Mind you, the oil change is separate. I will not be going to this shop. read more

It feels so odd to give five stars when I didn't want to be there in the first place. Emergency auto repair blows. My radiator hose also blew. It blew a major hole, and I needed to replace it right away. My navigator said Hamlet's was my closest auto repair option (ha! close? when I tried to navigate to it it told me I had already arrived. Looked up and saw the sign across the street. Duh). So, drove the 5 steps to the garage. Abe (owner?) called in the part, said they'd fix it up for me. No estimate on cost which I don't like, but I hadn't signed anything so figured it couldn't be too bad. 90 minutes later I was fixed, coolant filled, and car washed. They didn't even charge me for labor- just the part. Auto work can be a nightmare, but this was almost pleasant. Can't give less than 5 stars for that. read more

Great for volkswagen (VW), Lexus, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, other German and Japanese imports. Auto Pro Repair is the wonderful combination of not crowded and fairly priced. Vatche is honest, fair, and hard-working. I've taken my VW Jetta GLI to about a dozen auto repair places and none of them provided service as well done and as quickly as Vatche did. He's also a great haggler on parts and often wants to get the best value fix for his clients. When it looked like my 2006 Jetta GLI needed a part replaced (I'm not a mechanic, but it had something to do with wheel alignment), it looked like it was gonna cost 400 bucks. He searched and found the same pieces for 180 total. He also walked me through the repairs needed, telling me the prices of parts and explaining why they needed to be replaced. I have no idea why he isn't at the top of the search for repairs on Yelp. He also goes the extra mile. When I said I needed to leave by 1 p.m., despite the fact that he wouldn't likely get the parts before 3 p.m., he said "Let me see what I can do." I ended up getting a ride home a few minutes later, but it was the attempt that mattered. You know he's deliberately trying to get you the best deal and as quickly as he can. He has a 1967 Camaro in the back that he's been working on for a little while, feel free to ask him about it. read more

Vic is the best mechanic! I used to take my car to the dealer for service, but now i take my car to Vic every time. His prices are great, he works super fast, and he'll make you a seriously strong cup of coffee!!! Vic is a friendly and honest guy. A great business to have in the community. read more

Vic is the MAN! This gentleman's attention to detail and customer care is in another league! I brought my car in for a simple oil change and found that he had personally taken the time to bolt in some upholstery that was damaged, and he even had replaced my rear view mirror with a brand new piece, without mentioning anything! For Free. How many mechanics can you say that about in LA? He is honest, very hardworking, and one of the most enjoyable conversationalists I've had the pleasure of meeting in Los Angeles. Great guy! read more

He is down the street from my job. In fear of death, I called him for a (should have done three 3 months ago) break change. Price was amazing, service was amazing, and timing was amazing. So honest. He could have easily pretended my rotors were out but he didnt. I'm coming to him every time. Best part is I can do it during lunch walk to work and it'll be ready before my work day is over. This guy is THE BEST. read more

Vic is the man! Prompt service, market prices and honest work. Saw him on yelp and needed a starter replacement. 2 hours later it was done and even adjusted my handbrake! Glad his shop is close by. read more

Great service. Super friendly !! I have never been here before and I needed help with my car last minute and just happened to be near auto pro... I was not only accommodated but I received genuine care and service. I would highly recommend this small business . read more

I had my friend drive all the way from West Covina to have Vic work on his air conditioning. Vic will not replace parts without finding out the problem. My friend was charged half of what other competitors quoted him. Go see Vic and tell him about this review. You will be happy with the results! read more

I have taken two Camries to Vic and in both instances, he quickly determined the problem and fixed it for a very reasonable price. I look forward to visiting the shop in the future. read more

I'm here now and getting my WRX worked on. Super professional, knowledgeable and honest. I drive for an hour to get my car worked on because I don't trust others and they lie. Any car, any model or year he's got it covered. These types of old school mechanics don't exist anymore. read more

Vic is absolutely the best. I had taken my daughters Prius to Toyota who wanted to charge $1500 for a new condenser. Vic chased around and did the job for half plus spent over an hour with the insurance company as we had an extended warranty. This guy is a master mechanic and totally honest. If there were more than 5 stars he would get them! Bob read more

An honest and very nice guy!!! Came by because my check engine light was on. I thought it was my transmission but turns out it was the catalic converter. read more

I got an oil changed here today. They were very quick and very nice! My car was already driving much better after it was changed. The man who helped me was very kind and offered to help me put my new registration tags on for me since I'm a slacker and my new ones have not been put on yet lol. Very happy with this place and will definitely bring my car back for my next maintenance! read more

I had a transmission problem with my 2007 Jetta a few years ago. I went to different shops for diagnostic and quotes, but the prices were way over my budget and some shop owners treated me like a kid. I'm glad I made it to Vick's Shop. Not only were his prices fair, but he treated me with respect and genuine concern. Unfortunately, some shops try to take advantage of female clients when it comes to repairs and prices. I didn't feel that from Vick. Ever since, I don't take my car anywhere else. read more

Vic is honest, fair and willing to go to long lengths to provide the car expertise that I need. I have been getting oil changes for a few years for my Honda CR-V and he is consistently timely, friendly, and knowledgeable. Now my husband takes his mdx to Vic, and has been pleased with his level of service and pricing. We have come to trust and rely on Vic, and we feel grateful that he has been so worthy of our faith thus far. Cannot recommend him more highly.. thank you, Vic!! read more

Excellent service from the moment James answered the phone, every time he answered the phone! They took care of our Volvo at half the price of the dealership, and were extra helpful and courteous every step of the way. read more

This place is awesome. Very honest and trustworthy. I had work done on my Honda Accord and Lexus RX330. Good prices and quality work.

With two days left on my extended warranty(yes cutting it real close),I decided to give my 2007 Lexus RX350 with 110K miles its final inspection..I am a mechanic by profession and specialize on large diesel trucks. Well I found that my rack and pinion was leaking and it had to be replaced.That is $1500 job at least with parts and labor. After getting the run around from several repair shops and local dealers,I called Vache based on the reviews here on yelp. I was not disappointed.He was very professional and understanding. He said that he was familiar with aftermarket warranties and asked me to bring the car in right away. Once I was at his shop,he called the company right away and got a claim number going. He replaced my rack and pinion and aligned the front end,all I had to pay for was my deductible. I am extremely happy with his quality of work and professional attitude. Five stars all the way. read more

Vic..you are truly a life saver! If I can only give you more stars than 5. You are a A+++ mechanic!! I feel so comfortable at trusting my VW Jetta in your hands. Not only does he fix your car problems, he goes the extra mile at checking your vehicle. For example, he topped off my coolant when it was low and he didn't charge me for it. My car is 15 yrs old and he continues to help me get this car running as long as possible. A mechanic that is reliable, honest, and reasonable. I'm glad I found my very own mechanic that I can trust and not feel ripped off. Thank you!!!! Thanks for taking care of me and my old car. You are my angel. read more

Today I'm officially a repeat customer. Vic is knowledgeable, friendly, reasonable, cares about his customers, and about his community. We're fortunate to have him! Conveniently just a couple steps from CoffeeBean & Starbucks. read more

I've taken my car here twice and both times had a good experience. They don't try to sell me things I don't need, and don't talk down at you if you're female! They are honest and experienced. I'm telling people to try them out. Nice service. read more
