Donald is simply the best. My family and I have been going to him since their old location. They do excellent work at a great price.

Views are pretty unanimous but here's my two cents. Been going to these guys for many years and they are always curtious, professional, and do great work. Can't recommend them enough. read more

Fast and good service. I've gone to them for a few years now for oil changes or other maintenance, I should have left a review earlier but it always did slip my mind cause I got busy. Called in for an oil change and only had to wait around 45 minutes to an hour to get serviced. Given it didn't look too busy. Feels nice to know some mechanics that do honest work for a decent price range unlike some of the nearby dealerships. Happy Holidays and Happy new year! read more

Can't recommend highly enough. Wonderful staff with honest assessment. If looking for someone to trust this is your place. So happy a friend recommended them to me. read more

I can't tell you how many times these guys have come through for me in the clutch when it comes to my car. Most people would have told me to get a new car by now but these guys help me to keep it going despite all odds, addressing whatever is urgent. This helps me tremendously, especially when budgeting. They are honest, reliable, hardworking and knowledgeable. They don't nickel and dime you and they give you the truth. I bring them donuts just because I can't say thank you enough. Being a single woman in another state all by myself, no family, it helps to have a reliable contact in all areas of my life: a reliable doctor, a reliable dentist, a reliable car guy, a reliable tax guy, a reliable lawyer. And they COMPLETELY handle my car needs WITHOUT QUESTION. I'm very thankful. They are a blessing. read more

Most honest and reliable mechanic i have ever met. He was referred to me a few years ago after i got fed up with dealers. Donald is amazing, prices are very very reasonable! Highly recommend this place! read more

CarZone Auto Repair - Auto Repair Near Me - Van Nuys, California

Top notch service at a very fair price, dealer wanted 300% more. Bonus is that they're open on Saturdays from 8am to 1pm. This is our first time using them, but certainly not our last.

What can I say about this place. Not enough! Donald is so nice & well mannered. I don't know the names of the other workers but I've interacted w/ most of them & they are genuinely nice. I've been coming here for about a year. All the work they have done on my cars have been good quality. They seem to take car of the cars from driving into the garage to test driving it. They just seem like they care. I highly recommend them!!! read more

Donald is the more honest mechanic in San Fernando Valley. Good service, always on time and good prices. Just try for the first time, and you'll see. read more

Donald, Allan, and the rest of the guys at CarZone are the absolute best when it comes to your car maintenance! Honest, professional, and highly knowledgeable. We have been going to CarZone for over a decade and we recommend them to all family and friends in the valley. Anytime we have any concerns with our cars Donald and his team are the first people we go to. Forget the big name car mechanics- CarZone is the place to go for honest feedback and price! There were MANY times Donald refused to be compensated because the fix was so minor (he's such a stand up guy and he along with the rest of the team always cared about the customers first!) Highly recommend! read more

All I can say about this place and these guys are simply that they are the best mechanics I have ever witnessed. The likes of Donald, Alan, and Christian have been a godsend since I got to know them over 25 yrs. If you don't want to be ripped of by others I Suggest you take your vehicle or refer others to this place. Not only professional but honest as well as fair. Good quality work and also just great people. Thank you guys for keeping my ride running smoothly for 23 years. I drive a 2003 bought brand new and still driving it since then. Thank you again for a fantastic job. read more

They are the most honest mechanic I have ever been to. I am a single woman and they are the only place that didn't try to cheat me or take advantage in price read more

Definitely go here!!! Really nice people and very helpful! They are honest and trustworthy! They'll answer all your questions to make sure you have all the info to make a right decision. When they give you their professional opinion it's honest and not like other shops that just want your money. They'll honestly tell you when your problem is not worth fixing. I am so glad I was referred here by a friend and will continue going here and referring people! read more

I wont go anywhere else! Alan is the best and most trustworthy mechanic in the entire valley. My family always and only does business with him and his shop. I have been brining in my cars for the last fire years! come and leave all your car troubles for the best prices and quality work. read more

Donald is so helpful so polite and works super quick. I was in and out with an oil change and was so cost efficient! Will definitely be back

Finding a mechanic you can trust is always nerve-racking when it comes to maintenance on your car. I recently took my car to the dealer for a maintenance check and was quoted 650 dollars based on my car's millage. Later talking to my aunt, she recommended her mechanic Donald Rivas at CarZone, and I promptly made an appointment with him. Once I arrived, I was politely acknowledged by Donald and advised me to wait in his office. After approximately twenty minutes, he walked into his office and showed me everything that the dealer wanted to change was still perfect and did not be replaced. Nowadays, finding a great mechanic can be challenging, but finding a trustworthy and excellent mechanic is triple the effort to locate. That is why based on my experience and my aunt's experience, I would highly recommend visiting Donald at CarZone. read more

I've been here a few times, was recommended to carzone by a friend. I'm so glad they did. Donald and his Team are so trustworthy, honest and fair it makes all other mechanics I've been to look bad. They go above and beyond what I ever expect every time. I almost don't want to promote them and loose the fast service because of the lack of notoriety but I did want to big them up. read more

Hello everyone, my name is Gerardo and I truly recommend CarZone for all your automotive needs. Donald professionalism is top notch and his team of technicians know what many don't when it comes to fix it right the first time, also they are honest and very competitive on their labor rates, additionally will advise you on preventive care, and won't try to sell you services that you do not need.. My Volvo S-60 2015 was taken to a Volvo dealer for an oil change and the service advisor quoted me $1, 020 for a torque mount and rear shocks. Donald did it for way, way cheaper that I don't want to put that number. Thank you Donald and CarZone team quick, awesome and Honest Super Stars read more

I seldom give reviews but I had to make this EXCEPTION. I reconnected with Donald after years. I went to him to have our 2012 Altima serviced. He serviced this same vehicle when it was fairly new. AWESOME!!! He hasn't has changed!!! Extremely attentive, great attention to detail and most of his clients are repeat customers (me) and referrals. Once you come here and experience his service, you'll want him to service all your cars. He also serviced our 2018 Toyota Sienna (on the same day) and we plan on having him look at our 2018 Prius, as well. He works on TOYOTAS!!! Great place, great service, great people. Donald is ALWAYS WILLING TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE. To top it all off, their PRICES are affordable unlike other shops or worse, the dealers. Call him. YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!! read more

CarZone is a place you can trust with confidence bringing in your car. The water pump on my G37 stopped working and first I took it to Infiniti of Van Nuys cause I didn't know where else to take it. They quoted me around $2,800 and I was like hell no!One of the master techs working there recommend me to CarZone since a guy named Donald used to work at Infiniti of Van Nuys and now has his own shop. Gave him a call, very friendly and reasonable. He took care of me and got my car back working great. So I highly recommend bringing your vehicle if you don't know where to go or even if you have a guy, Donald can be your guy too. read more

CarZone delivered for me and my family when it counted most. We were stranded in S. California with a loaned car that could not be driven safely. Allen saw me right away and was able to assess the air filter issue and resolve it quickly - helping get us back on the road. All of the charges were fair, well explained and documented. Allen was a hero and saved the day. Thank you CarZone! read more

CarZone has been my go to mechanic for the last few years. I originally spoke with Donald and went with him because he was willing to offer me an estimate over the phone on shocks and control arms for my Subaru Outback. He did a great job on those at a very reasonable price. I've brought my Subaru and Lexus in for various other reasons and he has always been honest and reliable. He never tries to upsell me or make me do anything unneccesary. What really made me happy was when he figured out a rattling noise on my Subaru and didnt even charge me after he spent 30 min driving around with me. This is an outstanding place and I recommend this place to all of my family and friends. read more

I just finished going to CarZone in Van Nuys, CA I bought some used parts but witnessed the cleanest most organized auto shop I've ever seen. They specialize in Japanese Auto Repair. Cristian was courteous, friendly, knowledgeable and had a great pit named Blue. Love that dog. I'm posting this because it's rare to find these kind of attributes at an Auto Repair Shop. If you need repairs you now know where to go. For those of you that aren't familiar with Van Nuys, it's in the Valley area of Los Angeles. @carzoneauto FB IG:@carzone_auto_repair IG read more

Have been coming to carzone for years and every time I am greeted with smiles and professionalism. This place is where you need to go if you have any issues with your car from an oil change to the engine. Donald is amazing, he's kind and tells you how it is. When you bring your car here you don't have to worry about random add ons like you usually do with other places, they fix what needs to be fixed with the most reasonable prices, they are fast clean and professional. Would definitely recommend 10/10. If you're looking for a mechanic look no further, this is the place. read more

Honest auto technicians, have been going to then for over 5 years now. Always honest, friendly, and aren't pushy. They're also very knowledgeable and have a great team of technicians. I bring my car here for oil changes to tune ups to anything and everything mechanical related! read more

I will only take my car to CarZone. It is very hard to find an honest mechanic. A few years ago I took my car in for a clattering noise. I was prepared for a very expensive diagnosis. Turns out it was a loose nut. He did not take advantage of me and in return, I will support and recommend this business as long as I live in LA. read more

Took my car there to get the right CV boot repaired. Their team not only hanged that in less than 24 hours, but also maintained/examined my vehicle free of charge in other small areas! Highly recommend them!! read more

Been going here with Donald for a few years now. Fast and efficient and fair pricing.

Long over due review. Gotta give these guys some props. Alan and Donald are the best. I first took my car to these guys a few years ago with an overheating issue. Other mechanics could not find the cause of the problem. I also tried taking it to the dealer, just threw my money away there on the BS diagnosis fee. Finally took the car to CARZONE, they inspected the car for about a day or so, they found out the radiator had a pinhole leak. I then had another issue with my AC system, they inspected and turned out to be a relay or something it was. Have been taking my car to Alan and Donald since. They are professional, friendly, knowledgeable, perform great work! read more

My car was making a rattling noise.. brought it to an authorized dealership and after spending over $2000 they didn't fix it. They told me they don't know what the sound was but other things needed to be fix. I understand that but every time you bring the car in for an issue they charge to fix it. Donald knew what the issue was within a short period of time. I will continue to bring my car there and I'll refer anyone and everyone to him! read more

These guys are the best! Donald and his guys have been taking care of me and my families cars here for years. I highly recommend the shop for any of your needs. They are very good at what they do and very professional. Thank you. read more

Came in to get an oil change after they told me there was no wait time. I told the guy to let as much old oil drain out before putting in the new oil and he said "nah I don't wanna do it, I don't have time". If they see that you understand anything about cars they start getting freaked out because they rush everything. All I was asking is 5 extra minutes and for a BMW M3 I think taking your time is a reasonable request. Terrible customer service. Your shop isn't some big shot place so be a little more humble with you clients read more

I'm visiting from out of town, me being a great boyfriend I decided to take my girlfriends car to get a oil change. I found CarZone on yelp I liked the scenery, the reviews I read and it was only 20min away. When I pulled in the lot I seen 30 Teslas I almost turned around because I knew this was going to be $100 oil change. I was instructed to keep driving towards the garages in the back for CarZone. When I got out the car the hospitality was great, he asked how can he help me. I asked for a oil change and mentioned something under the car was hitting the ground, he said I can take care of that for you immediately! Took me inside to write down all my personal information for future visits. By the time I came out the office my car was being worked on. Friendly staff, noticed my New Jersey plates and started a conversation. Great price for the oil change and the skid plate was fixed. Although I'm visiting, my girlfriend will be using CarZone. read more

Donald and the CarZone crew are personable, honest, and timely. I took my 2010 Nissan Xterra in for a tune up after another shop told me it had major issues, and Donald let me know that my car was running great and didn't need a major repair. He saved me a ton of money, and I'm truly thankful! I definitely recommend this shop and will be in for my next oil change or whenever anything else comes up. read more

Excellent service was referred by a Triple-A technician and Donald the owner who handled my car was very professional I was able to fix repair my vehicle right before the holidays thank you highly recommend read more

Great people. Great service. Never any problems. Its worth your time and money to come here.

I like this shop. Donald diagnosed and fixed a suspension issue (Honda) and now I go for oil changes. They also installed a rear sway bar for me. Rates seem reasonable to me. Waiting room and bathroom are clean. Recommended read more

Great auto repair shop! The owner has a great attitude and the service is fast. Have been coming here for the past few years.

I just left from having my car looked at, just looked at because it had started over heating. It was already 4:15 so I was not expecting anything but a quick look to hopefully find the issue. I called just before 4, dropped it off, went across the street to have a beer at Macleod's which is conveniently located just across the street :), came back 10 til 5 and my car was pulling out of the garage. Donald explained what was wrong and said he fixed it and that was it! Not even 40 min and they fixed it! LIFESAVERS!! They literally have no idea how much they made my day! I will definitely be back for my car needs. Thank you THANK YOU!! read more
