This is what I call a REPAIR shop! My grandpa was an auto mechanics in the olden days where there is no replacement parts to purchase. Mechanics relied heavily on skilled hand work and mechanical expertise to diagnose and fix problems. While gasing up for my senior parents today I noticed the passenger door mirror was flapping back and forth. I knew something needed to be done because a broken rear view mirror is going to cause difficulty when changing lanes. The first thing I did was open my Yelp to see what auto shop is nearby. Danny Complete Auto Repair was the first one on the list so I decided to give it a try. The shop is small, but it got lots to offer. I was greeted nicely and was asked the reason for my visit. I told Danny my mirror issue and after one look he knew right away that it was broken and not due to a loose part. He ask me to wait a moment while he check for the parts. After obtaining the quote for the parts he feels it's too expensive and was super helpful and assured me that he going to take another look to see if it can be repair. Taking down the door mirror is not a simple task, he had to take apart other components of the door. After detaching the mirror he inspects the mirror again and confirmed the interior part is broken and is not a loose part. With the parts being so expensive, he decided to work his magic. I didn't have to wait long for the repair and he brought the car out he told me he added bolts to secure the mirror. He patiently instructed me that it's not going to be the same as before, the mirror won't be bendable anymore because he bolted down, but it's for sure stronger than before. I'm satisfied and impressed with his craftsmanship. He really gone that extra mile to save money for the customer. You definitely not going to find this kind of mechanics that's willing to put in the time and work. Will recommend this business to anyone who needs to get their cars repair! read more

Danny is awesome! Started coming here pre-covid per friend's recommendation. Very satisfied with his service. Can't say enough about his service & his shop. Done various jobs with him. We always bring our family's cars to him when there's something wrong. We know we can trust him. Below is a similar review that I forgot to publish previously: Danny is great. Only been coming to him for a few years, but I'm happy to have found him. My last mechanic (auto shop) closed down and was referred by a friend to come to Danny. Been satisfied with his service ever since. So far, I've done oil change with him, had brake pads & rotors replaced and now gotten a set of tires through him. His prices are reasonable and his does good work with good service! read more

First and foremost let me start off by saying Danny the owner isn't a very kind-hearted loving person my poor mother is dying and I've been off work for over 8 months and haven't got paid by the state of California this guy never wanted to work with me he was worried about getting my car out of his establishment and getting his money for storage as well as labor the service sucked the quantity of his work I don't know what's it all about which I don't want to and I don't care anything about this place ever again the value there isn't no value in the owner or the company itself I highly recommend these people or whoever do not go there do not use this guy read more

Danny runs the best mechanic shop ever. He's honest and gives the best prices. He won't ever try to upswell your on anything. You can count on him to fix your car and give you the best price in town. He gets pretty busy here so make sure you call ahead to see if he has a spot for you. Thank you Danny for the amazing service on my Ct200h and Prius. read more

I have a 2011 Toyota Corolla and was referred to Danny by a friend who has been with him for years. I've received services to address my tires, transmission, and oil changes. He did a thorough inspection before I went on a road trip to Texas. Danny is friendly, straight to the point, and affordable. I never felt taken advantage of and safe when consulting with him. The location is also easy to find. read more

A close call I was heading from Monterey Park to Montebello and was deciding if I was in a hurry or not. So I opted for the streets since I had time to spare Sunday afternoon. Luckily I did take the streets cause my brakes started to grind as though my anti-lock brakes were on full alert. I pulled over and popped the hood and found my battery was tilted over and scraping against a belt. Thinking that was the issue I put it rightside up and found that the bracket holding down my battery in place snapped off and was nowhere to be found. I sprung into Mac Macgyver mode and fixed that issue. Thinking maybe that was the issue I jumped back in and started driving but that was one problem and the major issue was still the brakes. I pulled up to my friends pad and contacted a couple of friends. Their recommendation was Danny's Auto Repair in South El Monte. I had it towed her Monday morning and the car was ready for me at about 4pm. Danny's is open from 8:30am to 6:30pm. The shop is clean and the prices are very reasonable. He gives you a couple of options but always recommends you a good product that isn't going to make you vomit. I highly recommend this place. They fix your variety of Japanese and European cars. Two thumbs up for Danny's Complete Auto repair. read more

I had a nail in my tire and air was seeping out. I texted a picture of my tire to Danny right away when I found out. I told him I'll be there first in the morning the next day. Danny went out of his way to get my replacement tire himself before coming to work to save me time, because I had to go to work as soon as possible. He replaced my tire at a fair price and fixed another thing that causing noise (missing bolt) for free of charge. I trust Danny with my car and all my family's cars. Thank you, Danny! :) read more

Been bringing my family's cars to Danny for the longest time now. Always there to help!

I've been coming to Danny for years for both of my Mazda's and he has always done a great job of taking the time to answer any questions that I have. He is honest and won't try to screw you over like so many people experience with auto shops. I go to him for oil changes, engine issues, break replacements and vehicle check ups. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for an honest and kind mechanic. read more

Went to get my car looked at today and get an estimate and the gentleman who helped me was just plain rude. All he had to do was tell me they were too busy to look at my car but I had to call and follow up and ask for a quote five hours later. Won't ever go back. read more

I've been coming to Danny for a couple years with different cars I've had. My Toyota Highlander, Toyota Corolla and Honda Fit. He has the best prices, quick and courteous service. It was the Highlander that had an oil leak in the back and he las the lowest quote from all the mechanics in the area. And I called ALL of them on this side of SGV. The other cars I've done the synthetic oil changes here. It's the average cost (or lower) for a standard 4 qt ($50) but I never have to wait long and they don't charge you for fake things like Oilmen did. Place is great! I recommend it! read more

I'm very spectacle when it comes to auto mechanics. But my friend referred me over so I might as well give it a try. Tbh it's hard to find a trust worthy mechanic. My rack and pins actually was leaking. Danny was straight forward and honest on what was going to done to my car. I am still currently waiting for my car to be fix but it takes time. rack and pin is not only a expensive job but it takes time. danny not only help me save some money but he also wants to provided the most excellent service to his customers. read more

This shop is very professional and provides the best service out there. Danny explains all the repairs with you prior to making them. He is very trustworthy and prices are reasonable. Be sure to check them out for all your automotive needs. read more

Danny is my most honest and trusted mechanic. In the mechanic community, there's a lot of people out here overcharging you and filling you with lies about what may be going wrong with your vehicle. I myself use to work at a tire shop and am knowledgeable about cars. I just don't have the time to fix things myself. That's why I can tell you Danny does the best job out here. Very knowledgeable and has been in this community for a very long time. I picked up tires from him a couple months ago and he charged me retail price. Didn't even try to make extra money off of me.. To this day , Danny is my go to man for any of your car needs. read more

I had major squeaking noise on my brakes out of nowhere while I was in El Monte. I just happened to remember Danny's Auto repair down the street so I slowly proceeded to go there being careful of my ridiculous metal screeching sounds. As i got there, Danny approached me and asks what he can do for me. Within 5 minutes my car was on the lift. He told me that i only needed brake pads and if I would have waited a little longer i would have needed something else if it hit some kind of metal. So, he gave me the price, i said I'm really in a rush, he said give me thirty minutes, I said "let's do it". He was done 30 minutes later, brakes are perfect, no noise what so ever, and his price was better than pep boys! Need I say more? read more

Been coming here for at least 6-7 years and keep forgetting to rate him. He is the one and only mechanic you will find that is honest, straight shooter and trust worthy. He straight up tells you how it is and what options you have once he diagnosis your car. Excellent customer service and skills. He treats your car as if it were his. He also does engine swaps!!!! Hell ya!!! read more
