They responded quickly, were courteous, and didn't try to tack on a diagnostic fee just to take a look. When I dropped off the car, the technician walked me through their process, starting with the bulbs before moving into any potential electrical issues (which I really appreciated.) It ended up being the simplest fix: both bulbs were burned out. They had everything replaced within a few hours. Fair pricing, clear communication, and no upselling. I'll definitely be back for future repairs. Side note- they have the cutest shop kitten. ‍

I had been here once before and had a great experience, so when my car's AT light went on…read moreunexpectedly one night I called them first thing the next morning to see if they could get it in. They said they could and gave me a timeline for working on the vehicle that matched my needs. While I appreciate them getting me in on short notice, they consistently over-promised and under-delivered on when they would be able to work on my vehicle. They were able to diagnose a couple of leaks that they thought were the problem and sent me photos to show me what they were looking at. In the past when I've left my car at this shop for work they sent over a detailed estimate before starting the work, but this time I only received the verbal estimate over the phone. I drive an old car, which isn't worth much, and I did let the person know that I wasn't interested in investing more in repairs than the vehicle is worth. As it was, the two leaks were just over $1K to fix, and I OK'd the work to begin. After fixing the first two leaks, they then came back and told me there was a third leak, which would require a more major repair to the transmission and they would have to have their transmission person (who wasn't there that weekend) send me an estimate the next day. While I understand that it's plausible that the third leak wasn't something they could have originally diagnosed, it felt a bit weird that the photo they used to show me the leak was one of the original photos they had sent before starting any work. If the leak was visible in that photo, I'm unclear why they couldn't have diagnosed it earlier. The added cost of this additional repair definitely tips the scales of worth-it/not-worth-it to repair vs replace this car, so I wish I had had all the information before deciding to make the initial repairs. Unfortunately, despite stabilizing the ATF level, fixing the leaks did not resolve the transmission issue. On a smaller scale, they didn't check or top up the tire pressure, which most mechanics I've gone to have done as a courtesy when working on my vehicle. The day after I picked up my car the tire pressure light went on, and when I checked my tires all four of them had low pressure. It's a small thing, but especially when dealing with expensive mechanical items like cars, the small things matter a lot in creating a sense of security and trust with your mechanic. They did mention that they were under new management since the last time I had been in, which may account for the different experiences.

The value of their services is appropriate to what you receive as a customer. Also, I recently received a very expensive quote from another mechanic for a service my car needed and took it to Jamel and Celine. They inspected my car and ensured me that that service was not even necessary! I am not very knowledgeable about cars, so I deeply appreciate that they were honest with me at a time when I could very well have been taken advantage of and charged for something that was not needed. Jamel, Celine, and their team deserve all the business and positive reviews!

I brought my Miata in because the front bumper was a bit distorted and showed signs of a messy repair from some time in the past. Francisco carefully inspected the car, gave his opinion about the needed repairs, explained why some possible options were not good ones, and wrote up an estimate. I was consistently impressed with Francisco's earnest personality and his willingness to take time with me to get things done right. I sat at his desk as he called around to ensure that we could get the correct OEM bumper for the car. During the course of the repair, Fransisco called to explain two necessary delays. Once, a part he planned on salavaging could not be salvaged, so he needed to order a part. On the second occasion, he discovered he needed a proprietary fastener from Mazda to ensure that my bumper stayed tightly attached. Although no one likes waiting for their car to be fixed, I appreciated his efforts to keep me informed and to provide me the best possible repair. Then, the car was ready. The surface was smooth and glossy and the paint match was about as good as I could ask for (there's always a slight difference between plastic bumpers and metal fenders). The rest of the car also received a good wash before they returned it to me. No one likes to spend money on repairs, and paint work is just inherently expensive. Still, if you have to spend the money, you might as well get it done right. I certainly recommend Long Beach Collision Center.
