    Exceptional service and knowledge. Doug and Kevin know their stuff and are honest and reliable. They will treat your car like their own.

    Shattered screen.

    This was the worst experience I ever had with an auto body shop and probably one of first negative reviews. It's a pandemic and all business are struggling, so I would never want to hurt a business, but at the same time, I want to save the customer from getting victimized. I was recommended this place by a tow service associate from AAA who jumped my car. I went there and a mechanic named KEVIN looked at my car. He was a bit off... I guess the word is rude. I have a feeling he must be a good mechanic but was terrlbe with customers. (I own a business). KEVIN gave me a price of $330 to put in a new starter and also I had a window that was not closing correctly and said it was the window motor. The quote seemed fair, and he wasn't pushing for me to fix it, but since the car was there I figured I should do it. I told him that my dad had just died and that this was a sentimental car to me since it was an older Lexus 300. 5 DAYS LATER. They called me when it was done in 5 days as they said but when I picked up the car... it was weird. Kevin had me pay... just gave me the keys. I asked him where the car was and he said on the street, fast forward... I noticed that the screen on the radio was shattered when I got home. I wasn't paying attention to it cause I was driving. I called IMMEDIATELy the next day in the morning. DOUG, the owner picked up the phone. I told him about it and told him I was bummed and asked him if I could text him the photos. I texted DOUG the photos. The owner Doug... never replied. . I called back later that day....AND KEVIN ANSWERED. As soon as I told him my name which is Sharon... and continued to tell him what happened, he told me he was the mechanic and that I was basically lying and that he didn't do it. This was over the phone. He hadn't even seen the photos yet. Why would I make this stuff up? Next day. I ended up driving there the next day and I talked to them calmly and asked if they would take a look at it and explain how this could have happened. The owner said that it may have cracked while parked on the street in the heat. He said he would look up any radios and get in touch. 5 DAYS LATER. NO word. I texted him. NO ANSWER. I think this place which has been around for 10 years... has gotten away with bad business. THE PROBLEM HERE IS NO FOLLOWUP. MISTAKES HAPPEN...but NO FOLLOWUP IS WORSE, then an accident happening. IF THIS HAPPENED TO YOU... I would also contact and complain. It doesn't take that long.

    Being a car guy, there are some things I just can't do anymore and so happy I ran into the guys at Brea Auto & Electric. If there is a classic car that comes out of their shop and the owner isn't just thrilled with the results- I'd like to see it. They have worked on 2 of my vintage autos and helped me out on a wiring problem on my 57 as well as got my fastback running again..better than ever. Great job and they really are car guys too- they look to work on anything and I'm sure they can. Again so happy that we met and so so happy with the quality of their work.

    My car didn't pass smog so I was referred to Doug's Brea Auto Electric to find the problem. Kevin helped me out right away and solved the issue which didn't break the bank. These guys are awesome!

    This is the type of work you get. Don't worry they'll keep the prices low and only charge you $1000 for it. Thanks to brea auto electric.

    Complete trash. 3 weeks, $1000 and problems later down the road. Is the result you get from brea auto electric. Complete unprofessional work and almost made me laugh over the phone when he called my vehicle a "shit box". Don't bother talking to the boss because he will just put the mechanics on the phone to defend their work. Negative 5 stars. You guys are garbage and I recommend to everyone that's looking up this place to just learn how to do it yourself on YouTube or pay a friend, unless you wan to end up with wiring that looks like my photos thanks brea auto electric, you sure outdid yourselves My "shit box" runs great now, no thanks to you.

    On your personal list of the 10 friendliest, most honest people you've ever met, I doubt your…read moremechanic is there. But mine is! He is Neel the owner (as you might've guessed) of this establishment on Imperial Hwy, which is thankfully not too far from us. He diagnoses quickly, gets the job done efficiently, charges reasonably compared to other mechanics we've gone to in the area, and above all is a man of integrity--he's allowed us to pay for certain repairs days later to make sure our car is running properly first. He is transparent about his shop's limitations (they don't do German cars but refer us to highly rated shops nearby). He is clearly very experienced and knows how to weigh the best repair options, especially for older vehicles. I plan on relying on Neel for years to come. Cheers!

    First time customer at Neel's Car Care and they really do care! Greeted by Hector who immediately…read moregot us going, understood my concerns and what I wanted done. They were busy but insured me it would only be about two hours for an oil change, break inspection, and tire rotation. Got a call about an hour later from Neel himself saying my Rav 4 was ready to go and didn't hassle me about doing any additional work, which I feel you get every time at a mechanic shop. It was a great feeling to just get the service and feed back you requested. Thanks Neel and Hector for the honestly, professional input, and transparency. Look forward to working with your company in the future. Only downside is parking. Be patient and you'll find one.
