Honest diagnosis and reasonable repair costs. Honest estimates as to when my requested work will be complete and ready for pickup. Mel and brother know their profession; most important, I trust them. I'm not a gullible person, it takes years to develop that kind of trust. They were referred to me by someone who knew them and trusted them for an even longer period. read more

Friendly, informative and thorough. Great value. The guys completed extensive testing and were able to get us back in the road quickly.

I've been going here for years and they are trustworthy and reasonably priced. One time I was selling my car and the buyer as a condition of sale, wanted to do a visual inspection underneath the car. Mel was nice enough to raise the car on the rack, which allowed me to sell the car. Plus, they would not accept any payment. That's just they way they treat their customers here. read more

This shop did some work on my car the horn went out. The mechanics were helpful and they fix the problem at a reasonable price happy customer. Yes I would recommend this shop. Overall great service!!! read more

Needed my breaks done, got an appointment the next day. Dropped it off they called with a quote for the work in about 2 hours. Price was very reasonable. Called an hour and a half later car was done. Everyone was nice and responsive on the phone and in person. I'll definitely be back. read more

A very confident repair shop. They did a great job on my car. Would highly recommend this business to anyone who wants to get the car serviced properly done quickly. read more

I've been looking for a good, reliable, honest mechanic and I have finally found it! My dad and an Uber driver recommended this place to me and I'm glad I checked it out. Mel was really kind and was honest about what my car needed and didn't need. I will definitely be returning for my oil change and brakes soon and all of my other needs down the road. Mel has had this shop 30 years and it's still going strong so he's doing something right! I definitely recommend you check it out! I drive a ways to get here too but he's worth it!!! ***Just a suggestion Mel: You need to blow up that great picture you have of yourself sitting at the same desk you still have now but 30 years ago. It's an awesome picture and you have aged well!*** read more

Honest mechanic that has the best prices and goes above and beyond! Been to many other places and I can say I'm very comfortable taking my vehicle to them. If they can't do the job Mel is good at recommending who to go to. read more

They are as expensive as the dealerships likeToyota dealership, but at least you get to see the work they are pricey though! Good service yes. read more

These guys made me cry... tears of joy! Nicest mechanics I have ever met, very truthful and with great prices. As a woman I'm always shy going to get my car fixed and am scared of scams but these guys were so nice to me 100% recommend! read more

i think his name was gil but he was the sweetest and he took care of my car faster then expexted!

Mel and Greg are the best! I brought my truck in at 2:30pm Friday of the holiday weekend because it was overheating. I had to get a new radiator. They started right away and stayed after hours and had it done by 5:30 and at a very reasonable price. So grateful to them! read more

I have to say I'm very disappointed. I'm stranded at the intersection of Owensmouth and Devonshire LITERALLY across from them. Mt roadside assistance said it would take an hour to arrive. It's 95+ degrees out here at 2:30pm. My husband walked over there to ask if they can help us, either jumpstart or tow our car to their lot or to our dealership and the guy didn't even want to help us he was making grunting noise and told my husband to look at our manual. I mean I'm staring at their business isn't this the whole point of of your service?? I was willing to pay out of pocket for their help or service done. I guess they don't care, I don't like to post bad reviews but seriously this is so disappointing read more

Came here a couple of times, they did a great job. Until the last visit I made, one of the mechanics asked , " why did you fix your car?" Then continued to lecture me. HAHA, guess what? He still did not identify the problem with my car. Thanks man. Very professional. Then assured me they would find out why my car kept stalling. Nope. Did not. I had to. My coils were bad. The mechanic was rude and incompetent. read more

I have been in a couple accidents over the last two years and although the visible damage was covered by the other drivers' insurance, my 2009 Mazda 3 started to develop this obnoxious rattling noise from the rear axle/trunk area when I would go over rough roads or bumps. This problem irritated me a ton, and I figured there probably wasn't anything I could do about it. A friend recommended I get it checked out, so called I Chatsworth Auto Repair and they said they could fit me in the next morning. I dropped my car off, and the office staff and mechanics were friendly and professional. It took them a while to find all the rattling noises, but they took my car out to drive a few times until they found all the sources, and eventually seemed to solve the issue. Even though there were multiple sources for the rattling, they fixed them all and swapped out my car battery in about 5 hours. Driving around without the rattling noise is so worth it! I would recommend these guys for any car service. read more

I went to the dealership to have a recall repaired and they told me I needed various things fixed totaling $1200. Went to see the guys at Chatsworth Auto Repair and they told me none of those things were wrong with my car. They have great ethics and are super honest. I'm going to be a customer from now on. Highly recommended! read more

The best mechanics. Honest, fair and reliable. I drive from Van Nuys for service. They know the problem right away and come up with the best solutions at a good price. read more

Chatsworth Auto Repair - Greg working on my car. - Auto Repair Near Me - Chatsworth, California

My fiance and I have gone here to have our cars serviced before with no problems ... until now. My fiance's car needed to have some minor repairs done (which costs about $400). Fast service - which is great. However, when the guy went to take the car for a test drive, he did something where now underneath the bumper is practically ripping apart. Unfortunately, we did not look over the car thoroughly when he returned from the test drive (which we normally do, but for some reason we didn't this time). We paid for the services and then proceeded to drive home. Then we started hearing a loud sound coming from the car. It wasn't the engine, but definitely something coming from underneath the car. Because the portion underneath the bumper was no longer "attached" to the car, it was catching major wind when we drove. That was the sound it was making. We pulled over to the side of the road and saw the damage. We were PISSED! We were mad at the guy and we were mad at ourselves for not checking the car after his test drive. We knew it would be a no-win for us because the guy could easily say he didn't do anything. We got home (after driving 20 mph because we didn't want to drive faster and make it worse than it already is) and we were still fuming. We were going to forget about it and leave it be. But my fiance ended up calling the spot and asking the driver if he ended up hitting something while he test drove the car - or if he went to fast on a dip and it scraped the underside of the car. But the driver denied it. He asked us, "Why? Is something wrong?" My fiance told him what he found as we drove not even a mile (literally) away from the shop. The driver still denied it. I know it wasn't us. The car was in absolute tip-top shape (aside from having the brakes done - which is why we initially brought it in). And my fiance LOVES his car and takes VERY GOOD care of it. And we're not the type of people to make false accusations. This truly happened to us. Because of the service - and the denial to what happened to our car - we will NEVER return to this spot. It's a shame because we've been going to this spot for years. We were happy with their service, but not anymore. read more

Chatsworth Auto Repair - Auto Repair Near Me - Chatsworth, California

I have always used Chatsworth Tire for purchasing tird and servicing my tires. They have the best customer service! I also appreciate their honesty in not trying to sell me the most expensive tire but what is best for my car. Thank you Jack! read more

I came to the shop without an appointment and was greeted by Greg who then introduced me to Mel. I told Mel I had trouble installing brakes and rotors on my 1995 Miata and wanted them to replace them for me. They had no issues with taking my car in and performing the swap with the parts I bought. They were very friendly and very understanding, they were able to explain the work they did and the reasons why I had trouble. I highly recommend giving this place a try. Greg did a great job performing the brake and rotor swap for me. read more

Was very helpful over the phone regarding an issue I had with poor gas mileage. Mel was very helpful. Will definitely bring my car in next time it needs service. read more

I made an appointment for an oil change. I recommend making an appointment because they are very busy. I did not wait there. Bob was welcoming and friendly. I did not like that they did not call nor text me that my car was ready. I think you have to call them and check. Price was reasonable. I will continue bringing my car here for oil changes. read more

I highly recommend Chatsworth Auto Repair. My family and our company have been bringing our cars there for longer than I care to remember. Mel and Greg and the team do a bang up job. Honesty, integrity, competence ........what else can I say? I'm a lifer. read more

Chatsworth Auto is the best. They have taken excellent care of all my cars for over 30 years. I highly recommend Mel, Greg and Kirk (auto body)! read more

Kirk, he is the man! He looks cool, and deliver what he promised. I was referred by my son's school friend, and I was not sure if I made a right choice. The shop is not like a brand new state of art quality it's, but results, very beautiful work, so be confident,, you would be so glad that you take your cars for body shop. He has his dad does maintenance the next door. I have not tried him yet, but if I do, I make sure to review! read more

HONEST, TRUSTWORTHY, RELIABLE! 10 stars :) VERY SATISFIED CUSTOMER MANY TIMES OVER! Its SO hard to find a good mechanic that's honest and will not lie to you or rip you off! You don't need to look any further than Chatsworth Auto Repair. From a person that owns MANY older cars that needs repairs from time to time, I have searched and searched and found this place to be ONLY place to do business with. Mel is amazing to say the least. Enjoy the advise and review read more

A good honest mechanic! They saved me hundreds in labor over the dealership! Greg is good people and works hard to help customers. They are reliable and fair. read more

I've been here a few times and never had a bad experience. Mel and Greg really do great stuff! Definitely my Go To Mechanic in Chatsworth!

I have had the luck of not needing a mechanic for my Toyota tacoma for several years. I went to Chatsworth auto repair and was amazed of the service I received. They diagnosed the issue right away, gave me a fair estimate and had my truck ready the next morning. A+ service for sure. Mel and Greg are very nice and straight forward. read more

Needed a relay, I got charged $86. Same relay ranges for $6-24 for the most pricy one online shipped. 20-30min on car from time I rolled in to time finished job....labor charged as 1 hour @$95perhour. For something I should have been charged $130 MAX, I paid almost $200. That would have been fine if they didn't play it like a scam. read more

Super happy I found this place on Yelp! After finding it, it was also recommended to me by two different people. The guys here were super helpful, honest, and kind. Great and comfortable pricing. I would definitely trust them with my business again and recommend to others! read more

I wouldn't trust my car anywhere else. Honest and reliable. They don't try to swindle you and take advantage.

Super nice employees and my old car has odd tires and they help me fill air all the time. And give honest ideas on estimating costs regarding services. read more

I have 3 cars, 2 of them over 30 years old and one "new" one that's only 18 years old so instead of car payments, I go to mechanics. So I brought my '85 Chevy Suburban in for an oil change and he noticed a few other things that other mechanics had missed and charged me a fair price for all. Jerry is your guy here. Honest as the day is long - you can tell immediately - very nice to deal with. read more

A buddy of mine from work recommended me to this place. Mel the owner seemed like a man of few words but he was friendly and open to getting my car brakes replaced without an appointment. Mel was upfront and honest and so did the mechanics that worked there. The shop isn't all sparkling and clean but they do a great job. His pricing was great and was $100 less than what Chatsworth tire would've charged me. Bottom line: Best bang for the buck with great service! read more

I bring my Lexus GS 450h here for service and couldn't be happier. They are always very knowledgable, accomodating and HONEST. I have never had any issues about the work they do, they do it quickly and are professionals. I wouldn't go anywhere else. I have been going here for at least 10 years. read more

What a disappointment. For many years my wife, son and I all get our tires and brakes replaced here. I also take all my company trucks for tires and service. Went there this morning with a nail in my tire and was treated like a nobody. Asked if they can fix my flat and right away, we're too busy, we don't know when we can get to it, come back later. Ok, what time can i bring it back? We don't know, you can leave the car hear and we will call you, no guarantee we will get to it today. I know there always busy and i wasn't expecting them to jump on my car right away, i just needed to know when they can get to it so i can go back to work. Completely different attitude from when you need new tires. But because its a flat tire, all of a sudden your no value to them. Thank you Bob and Jose, two guys who think they are busier than everyone who have jobs in America. I will never be coming back to a company who don't value there customers. read more

So this is my second review for this business, my first was written over a year ago. Since then, this has become my regular mechanic shop. Mel and his crew are fantastic! They save the old parts for me to see without me having to even ask, and take the time to explain to me exactly what was wrong with the car. They don't just take your money, fix your car, and send you on your merry way; they also take the time to educate you about your car and what was going on with it. Today I really challenged them, as my family and I have a family trip planned for Disneyland this week, and we leave tomorrow. Over the weekend , the car developed a horrendous squealing noise while driving, coming from the back driver's side tire. I couldn't drop it off any earlier than this afternoon at about 2:15, on a Monday, their busiest day of the week. I told Mel they could keep it overnight if need be, and if they couldn't fit it in, to let us know and we would rent a car. He gave me and my kids a ride home and said he'd see what they could do. Just before 4pm, Mel called to tell me what was wrong with the car and that it had been fixed. No need to rent a car, after all. I am extremely impressed by these guys! You can't go wrong taking your car to Chatsworth Auto Repair! read more

Great family business! I've been bringing my cars to Mel's shop for years. His shop has always done right by me--they are careful to itemize each charge on an invoice for me each time I visit, will show me broken parts they replaced, explain exactly what was done (and show me), and have often saved me time and money when parts they have inspected didn't need replacing (other shops I have been too have not hesitated to pad the bill by replacing perfectly good parts). read more

My wife's 2005 Mercedes Benz needed front and rear brakes. The car has been dealer maintained since we purchased it, so i was leery taking it to a "repair shop". I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived on Monday morning, and was taken it immediately. The shop has 4-5 service bays and there was a lot going on, but Ed, the mechanic, got right on it. The repair included front and rear pads, and front rotors. They were able to machine the rear pads and save me money; How many shops would do that? All-in-all, I was fully satisfied with the repair. I am sure the dealer would have charged me an additional $300 for the same service. Both Mel and Ed were very courteous and a pleasure to deal with. I will definetly take both my vehicles to Chatsworth Auto Repair for all my future maintenence/repair needs. read more
