I should be a gatekeeper and say this place sucks and stay away. But this family owned business is honest, professional and friendly. Their prices are competitive. They are not cheap and they are not expensive. Rest assured, they will not upsell you on anything unless it is honestly needed. read more

Omar is a great mechanic--reliable, honest, and always transparent about what's going on with my cars. Having worked in a shop myself, I can confidently say that his pricing is fair and his assessments are spot-on. I've taken two different cars to him, and each time he's been incredibly helpful, explaining everything clearly and making sure I understand what needs to be done. It's hard to find a mechanic you can trust, so I'm super thankful my friend referred me to him. Highly recommended! read more

Omar charged my mom $717 to replace a $50 power steering high pressure line... sounds fishy

My "go-to" mechanic!! So trustworthy. My family has been coming for almost 2 decades. Omar and Chavira are amazing souls. As a woman who doesn't know cars, it's always a fear to take your car in and not to know if you're getting repairs needed or being told wrong information. But not here! Their integrity and prices are worth the visit. read more

I've been coming here for years for all kinds of issues. They've helped me through some really complicated car issues while being honest, fair, and extremely affordable. I would recommend them to anyone, and trust them absolutely. read more

I've been coming here since I was a kid with my parents. I've continued the tradition and would never take my car anywhere else. They're honest and reasonably priced. Ask for Omar, he'll take care of you. read more

My family has been coming here for years. Chavira and his sons have always done us right, they have never over charged us and are always friendly. We've been through a multitude of mechanics and i'm telling you, you will not find anyone more honest and helpful than these guys. *Location The location is a bit hard to find but you can input it onto your navigation and it will take you into an alleyway, don't worry your in the right place. *Things to do while you wait If you have to leave your car for a few hours they have a starbucks across the street and a bunch of restaurants and if you have t-mobile you can go upgrade your phone/yell at the rep for your high phone bill. Otherwise this place has been phenomenal through the years and appreciate the amazing services they've provided the past decade. read more

Omar is genuinely the most honest mechanic I have ever known. He patiently allows my husband to pick his brain and offers solutions and/or troubleshooting. I highly recommend Omar and his team! Honesty and Integrity are hard to find these days and am glad we met the Chavira's! The Hobbs Family read more

The biggest concern by consumers when seeking a car mechanic is if they do good work and if they are trustworthy. Like most of us, I trust my family. My grandmother, uncle and my father have trusted their cars with Chavira Auto repair in Santa Fe Springs. Whenever I am in need of repairs for my Honda, my Dad tells me to call Omar. Omar and his father run Chavira. Omar has helped me before and I can attest that his approach is to be honest. My impression is that he isn't looking to up-sell or to gouge his customers with high prices. He gives you his honest opinion about what is or might be wrong with your car and he will test it to make sure he is correct. He even recommends what type of cars to buy and encourages for you to buy and bring in the parts for your car's repairs all to save you money. Omar and the shop can be busy, so it's best to call a day in advance or to get there very early. While I was there at the shop, I observed that Omar and his staff are busy for a reason--the same reason why my family takes their cars: satisfied returning customers. The customers seem to return because, like my Dad's recommendation, I can tell they trust Omar and his shop's work. On a busy day when Omar had a lot off cars ahead of me, he asked if I could return in the afternoon and I did and he stood a little late to look and fix my car. The next time I need car repairs, I'll take it back to Chavira. And one last important thing, they have a shop rooster named Vicente Fernandez! read more

The mechanic has been good for many years but lately it's pretty bad when it comes to answering phones, getting estimates out, even taking in the car itself to get checked. read more

Not only is this business professional but their service, time and quality is top priority. Thank you Omar and your team for doing such an amazing job! Any type of work that your car needs Chavira Auto Shop got you covered!!! read more

No one enjoys going to the mechanic, fearing a mountain of money that'll inevitably be leaving your wallet. This mechanic on the other hand, was the best I've been to in all of my travels, coast to coast. Omar was honest, timely, and understanding of my concerns. No hidden fees or shady business schemes, and has definitely earned my repeat business. read more

He does an excellent job very reasonable and honest . among mechanics he is the best I have known him for 20 years

Honest and fair .... turn around time was not a quick I would have liked, but people deserve vacations and I had another car handy

Had a good experience here. Was referred by a nearby tire shop to replace a battery and broken light bulb for my Boxster. Omar was easy to work with. Pricing was fair. Unfortunately didn't get a chance to meet because I did an after hours pick up. No complaints, just 4 stars until the next opportunity. read more

Very honest mechanics that work here. I been coming here for 20 plus years. I trust them 100%

Chavira Auto Repair is a very professional and friendly place. Omar and Ramon are very helpful and knowledgeable. I have been going there for years and will continue to do so. I definitely would recommend this place read more

Best place I ever went to..trusted people ...they have lots of work because of it...awesome prices...I wouldn't go anywhere else

Once again Omar pulled through for me. My SUV broke down late Sunday evening. Got it towed to the ship Monday afternoon and that evening Omar had it ready for my family and I to resume our busy schedule as normal. I have nothing bad to say about the gentlemen that work at Chavira Auto Repair. They are polite and genuinely want to do all they can to help ease the process of what is taking place. Thank you gentlemen you have found a long time returning customer, and one that is referring other family and friends to you. read more

I have taken several cars to Chavira auto repair for many years. A few weeks ago, I had a new motor rebuild for my 91 geo metro and chavira's crew removed the old motor and replaced it with the new engine from Engine Mart in whittier. I have not seen any problems with the new motor and look forward to taking it on another long distance trip to the east coast. Ramon has done many repair jobs for me in the past and he always does great work. He will only accept high quality work from his crew and he is very picky on vendors for new or rebuilt parts and engines. If you take a tour of Ramon's shop you will find some cars with the heads pulled off getting new head gaskets. I got to witness him doing a set of head gaskets on a late model Cadillac V8 with that "aluminum block and heads." Ramon told me that the factory head bolts are self tapping into the aluminum block! He completed the head gaskets on this Cadillac that the dealer would not touch! Ramon's shop does a lot new engine installs all year long. Ramon's crew can install a new auto cool controller for positive radiator temperature. This will keep you engine at a constant temperature from winter to the hot summer months. Auto Cool controller's use fan RPM to control. Ask Ramon about AUTO COOL when you stop by. These new solid state controllers carry a full year warranty! Ramon's shop is at 10655 Inez street between Florence and Telegraph Road. You can't miss the big white building. His son Steve runs the smog (only) shop across the alley. Ramon's phone number: 562-946-8000 read more

Family owned and operated and they always help out to make sure your car is back on the streets well and they always give me a good deal on any service my vehicle needs thanks Chavira Family. read more

Referred to Chavira Auto Repair by a coworker as I was in search for a honest, reliable mechanic. Just my luck this gem is close to home. After 2 attempts and money spent trying to get my car shaking/rattling fixed, I figured 3rd time was a charm. I called and spoke with Omar, he explained over the phone in great detail the possibility it may be just by what I had described to him. As a female, it actually made sense and not a foreign language. When I brought in my vehicle on a Saturday (busy day), he was just as helpful and took a look at my car while being present and physically explained how motor mounts work & run. He took my information and was going to get pricing on dealer parts for me. Fortunately my car was drivable and wasn't in a rush so I appreciated his honesty and allowing me to take my car and bringing it back when parts arrived instead of keeping it and leaving me car less for no reason. Long turn around time has become one of my pet peeves with car repairs. I get mechanics are busy and everyones lives are just as important, but keeping my car for 3-4 is a little too long for me... I need to get to work and Uber ride share adds up. Omar called me when he got pricing and quoted me, which I felt was VERY reasonable as I needed 3 motor mounts replaced with labor. I brought the vehicle in at 8am and received a call it was ready for pick up by 1pm, DEFINITELY my kind of service! When I picked up my car the shaking was all gone, FINALLY! I will definitely be referring this shop to friends and family and coming back for future car service. :) read more
