Met JV at Hobart Auto and he has been incredibly helpful on multiple occasions, especially since I messed up my car's undercarriage last year. Since then, he's become my go-to mechanic. He's reliable, honest, and always makes the whole process feel less stressful. I've had such a good experience that I even recommended my boyfriend Jesse, and he's also received great service here. Great service, great people, and definitely a shop I trust. read more

So glad to find a reliable shop in town! This will be my go-to auto shop. The passenger window was stuck in my door. My previous, reliable auto shop guy retired, so I was looking for a new reliable place. I previously got it fixed for $250 with after market pieces, so I knew the reasonable price range. Most places in the area were quoting me $500-1200 and said there weren't any after market options. At Hobart Auto, Gary, the manager was communicative, quick, and offered the best pricing at $300. He was transparent with the amount of work the shop had to do with other customers, so I knew how to work around my work schedule to drop off my car at the most efficient window of time. Highly recommend! read more

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Hobart Auto Center. I recently needed a battery replaced in my daughter's Ford Explorer while she was traveling in Europe. The battery was covered under a AAA warranty, and AAA directed me to Hobart Auto Center for assistance. When I first arrived, the staff explained that they were extremely busy and that they might not be able to help me right away. However, after hearing my situation, JV went completely above and beyond. He took the time to speak with AAA, worked through the warranty details, and helped us obtain the necessary invoice from my daughter overseas so the battery could be replaced. What could have been a very stressful situation turned into a smooth and positive experience because of his patience, kindness, and determination to help. It would have been much easier for them to simply turn me away, but instead they took the time to find a solution. The entire team was professional, honest, and genuinely caring. It's rare these days to find an auto repair center that combines excellent customer service with integrity, but Hobart Auto Center does exactly that. If you're looking for a trustworthy mechanic who truly cares about their customers, I highly recommend Hobart Auto Center. They earned my gratitude and my highest recommendation.

Great shop to work with. Good customer service and quick turnaround! Highly recommend

This is my third time coming to Hobart Auto Center, unfortunately due to various accidents, and every single time Gary has done absolutely incredible work. Most recently, he repaired the rear left side of my car along with part of the bumper, and the results were flawless--it looks like nothing ever happened. Beyond the quality of the work, Gary is just an incredibly kind, honest, and easy person to work with. He communicates clearly, takes pride in what he does, and genuinely cares about his customers and their cars. While I hope I won't need accident repairs again, if I do, there's no question I'll be coming back here. Highly recommend Gary and Hobart Auto Center to anyone needing top-notch auto body work. read more

Was recently in an accident and got multiple quotes from autobody centers. After receiving them all, going with Hobart was a no brainer. They had the most fair pricing by far, and didn't make me feel like I was being mislead. Gary is so friendly and and walked me through the damage and replacement process with clear expertise. My vehicle came back as good as new and beautifully polished. He'll definitely be my go-to mechanic moving forward. read more

Gary was amazing from start to finish! Quick response through yelp. Was able to get my car in the next day and got it back clean and fixed looking good as new 4 business days later! Specifically for Tesla drivers, repairing one is never cheap but other shops seemingly look forward to price gauging us, these guys offer a much more fair rate with great service. Hopefully I never have to deal with any other car trouble like this with again, but if so I'm definitely coming back! read more

$800 to replace my bumper, driver's side mirror, and receive a surprise car wash with interior detailing is such an amazing price. Gary took good care of of my car and had a wonderfully reasonable turnaround time (drop off Monday, pick up Thursday). He is polite, professional, and generous with his expertise, from administrative (carbon copy papers/intake) to auto. I've been to other auto body shops before and now question if I was overcharged and duped, because of how smooth and seamless Hobart Auto/Gary made everything. Remember to prepare/withdraw cash payment as they don't accept checks or Zelle. I would come back again :) read more

Hobart auto is EXCELLENT. They are the only shop in LA I've let work on any of my vehicles since 2011. My last visit was probably 2018. Recently had hit and run in Dec 2025. Brought it to Gary and his team. They took care of it, no problems as they always have. I picked up my vehicle today and it was beautiful. I won't go anywhere else. Straight up, great pricing and total pros. read more

Posting on behalf of my boyfriend who doesn't have a Yelp: Hobart Auto Center is a blessing. I had several repair shops reach out to me to repair my bumper and I chose Hobart after plenty of deliberation. I could not be happier or more impressed with the work as they did an impeccable job at a very reasonable price. Gary was as kind and charismatic on the phone as in person, and he helped make what is ordinarily a stressful process go by incredibly smoothly. My car looks beautiful, far better than I expected, and I have Hobart Auto Center to thank for that. Now speaking as myself, I was the person to make initial contact with Gary. He was very helpful and patient in explaining what sort of repairs were necessary and what the costs would look like. Thank you guys for helping us get our car in the best shape again! read more

What can I say that hasn't been said already. Gary and his shop truly took care of me and my car with a great quote and amazing body work. My Tesla had damage on the rocker panel and needed it to get fixed asap. Gary took care of it and made my car look brand new like nothing ever happened. I highly recommend going to Gary and Hobart Auto Center for your car needs. I will certainly come back for their services if they're ever needed and I suggest others to do the same. read more

Amazing job done by Hobart Auto Center on repainting my car with some very deep paint scratches. Gary is one of the best people I've ever met! He actually listens to what you need, very professional and very honest when it comes to pricing. When I got my car back, it looked like the scratch from before almost never happened, he also did my side mirror as extra for an amazing price, when other places would have charged almost three times or probably more. They even went out of their way to wash and vacuum my car, almost looked brand new. If you are around the area or even if you have to drive for more than an hour or two. I recommend going to Hobart Auto Center and look for Gary. You won't be disappointed by their professionalism and kindness. read more

I found Hobart's on Yelp after looking at a couple of options and felt comfortable choosing them since I've had good experiences with AAA-approved shops before. I brought in my Toyota for paint work due to a recall paint issue affecting part of the car. The communication was quick and helpful throughout the process, the repaint looks great ! read more

THE BEST!! My fiancé had work done and recommended them, and oh man did they deliver!! I had a tire blow out and ruin my entire wheel well and tail light absolute nightmare -- these guys came in and made it look brand new!! As a personal touch they cleaned the car and headlights (that I mentioned off hand were looking rough) above and beyond!! Gary is super responsive, I was able to text and call-- he's the man! Funny too. Can't recommend them enough. I went from derailed with no car after this wild incident, to feeling like I have a new car. 5/5- 10/5 if I could on this app. Great dudes, great work! I sound like I'm a family member or friend, met him for this incident and they were awesome. I'm a friend now! lol (Shared before and after pictures labeled below) read more

Hobart Auto Center amazed me it was beyond my expectations. They did a professional and amazing job on my car. It was rear ended. And they fixed it so nicely like it was just out of the dealer. They even changed my other broken rear light. Fixed a few more dents that wasn't even part of the job. So caring. Polished the whole car. Detailed interior. I cannot thank enough. Gary is amazing. Guys working there are so nice and professional. Respectful approach to a customer. I highly recommend. Call Gary, he will settle everything and make it happen with reasonable prices. Like he says NO Problem Thank you Hobart Auto Center!! read more

Gary took amazing care of my car! He repainted the entire rear bumper on my BMW, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The color match is absolutely perfect -- it looks brand new. He did the job for a great price too, which made the whole experience even better. On top of that, Gary was super responsive, worked incredibly fast, and clearly knows what he's doing. He's professional, skilled, and trustworthy. I highly recommend him if you want quality work done right without overpaying. Edit 1: Gary even painted a bumper trim piece for free just because he noticed it needed it. Thank you so much! Highly recommend! Edit 2: Gary took amazing care of my car again! This time, he completely painted and replaced the entire front bumper on my BMW, and it looks absolutely flawless. The color match is perfect -- it blends seamlessly and the car looks brand new from every angle. Once again, great price, fast turnaround, and outstanding quality. Couldn't recommend him more! read more

Gary and crew did an AMAZING job fixing my new car that I scratched up against a wall. As a young woman, I find any car repair/maintenance anxiety inducing, but Gary made it quick and easy.

I would HIGHLY recommend Hobart. read more

Tuesday morning and I literally got it back today at 4pm. I was expecting to be picking it up tomorrow. They did such an amazing wonderful job and sooo affordable. They were extremely helpful and understanding and patient with me. I've had a terrible year but they literally made my week fixing the bumper as wonderfully, quickly and amazing customer service! They even washed my car! I absolutely recommend these guys!!!! I'm telling everyone in my family to go to them for everything they can.

Great service and great work at Hobart Auto Center! Took my car in after doing some research and found this gem. Originally went just for an estimate and Gary B. was so helpful in giving me prices and assessing the damage. Had to go through the other party's insurance which was Kemper auto worst insurance company to deal with, but Gary B was able to help me by getting the process going in getting a supplement in order to be able to cover my repairs. When I got the car back it's was like brand new definitely have to a newfound love again for the car might just keep it. Definitely will recommend Hobart and will come back for any future auto body repairs. Shout out my guy that painted my car as well didn't get his name but did an excellent job getting the paint matched and finish on the crystal white pearl. Thank you read more

If your car needs body work and you're looking for a body shop, you can stop your search right now! Go to Hobart Auto Center -- please! I brought my treasured vintage Lexus in for a new bumper, repaint of the front bumper and roof, and a buffing out of the absolutely old and yellowed headlight covers. First of all, Gary the manager is the best! He's super friendly and knowledgeable -- he literally grew up in the business helping his dad in the family's body shop as a kid. He also owned his own shop for 15 years. He's a pro. He gave me a great deal and I could tell from reviews that I was going to be happy with the results. Plus he's a total sweetheart so he's great to work with. Gary said he'd need a few extra days with my car because it was a holiday weekend and they were closed on Friday. That was fine with me -- I definitely didn't want them to rush the job. Turns out, Gary called me early the following week and told me my car was ready -- 3 days earlier than planned! When I went to pick up my car, I was shocked. It looked like a new car and it's a 2012! He had it beautifully detailed too so everything was gleaming! The previously yellowed headlight covers were shining and crystal clear! (Old headlight covers really age a car.) If you've got a car that needs a little love, don't hesitate to call Gary and book an appointment. You and your car will be very happy! read more

I never leave reviews. But Gary really saved me. I got into a fender bender and my car was not in a good condition at all. I called many spots in LA and every single one was going to charge me over $5000 or beyond. One even said the job was going to be way too much for out of pocket and that I should get my insurance involved. I didn't want my prices to go up more. I was at the point of accepting a total loss, but I ended up calling Gary. At first I thought it was going to be a bumper job but he said it was way more. He only charged me $1400 for repairing the bumper, grill, and internal work from the accident. Gary doesn't take advantage. As a single woman as well, I felt safe and comfortable. I can't recommend Hobart Auto enough. Thank you for giving me an opportunity to drive my car when I thought it was done with. read more

I don't usually write reviews, but Hobart Auto Center absolutely earned this one. I brought my car in after a minor (but very stressful) fender bender with a garage door, and from start to finish, Gary and his team made the entire process smooth and surprisingly painless. First off, the customer service is top notch. Gary himself took the time to walk me through what needed to be done, gave me a fair and honest estimate (which was way better than what the dealership quoted me), and didn't try to upsell or pressure me into unnecessary repairs. The work? Flawless. You'd never know the car had been hit by a garage door. Paint matched perfectly, panels lined up like new, and they even cleaned the interior before handing it back - a small touch, but one that didn't go unnoticed. They finished the job a day earlier than expected & kept me updated throughout. If you're looking for a trustworthy, skilled, and efficient auto body shop, Hobart Auto Center is great. I hope I don't need body work again anytime soon, but if I do, I know exactly where I'm going. read more

Hobart Auto Center & Gary turned my crappy situation into a positive one. A lady hit my car when I was parked, leaving some scratches. Luckily, she left a note, and let me pick an auto center to get the work done at. I consulted multiple places, but decided on Hobart Auto center as they had good reviews, as well as one of the low-medium prices around the area. Most places were estimating $700 when Hobart told me $500. They were busy because of the holiday, but still managed to squeeze me in with a day and a half turn around time. Gary helped me out; he was nice, professional, and good with customer service. They even touched up a spot that wasn't on the original quote/scratch requested, which was an added bonus. I would tecommend going to Hobart Auto Center for fixing up any paint scratches; they left my car looking as good as new! read more

I found Hobart Auto Center through Yelp and the reviews are accurate. Gary is the real deal. He's super easy to communicate with, honest, and takes pride in his work. The body shop technicians are top notch and also take great pride in their work. They did an excellent job on my Honda Passport; looks brand new! One thing that really stood out to me was how well I was treated for such a minor job. It was a door dent from an accident (someone backed into my car) and relatively small/simple but they still treated me and my job as if it were one of their priority jobs. That's something I appreciate as much as the results of the work. I HIGHLY recommend Hobart Auto. No stress about shady practices and they will make your car look amazing. read more

Flawless work, transparent pricing, and top-tier professionalism -- easily one of the best experiences I've ever had with any auto body shop. I brought in my 2019 Nissan Sentra with deep scratches, door dents, and scarring across multiple panels. Several shops had quoted me anywhere from $3,500 to over $6,000 - many insisted on full door replacements. This team gave me a flat $2,500 quote, stuck to it, and delivered work that genuinely exceeded my expectations. From start to finish, they were: Clear and professional -- they answered every question I had up front, no pressure, no surprises. Incredibly skilled -- the paint match is perfect, the clear coat is smooth, and there's no sign of the previous damage. Efficient and organized -- the turnaround time was exactly as promised, and my car was returned spotless. You'd never know this car had ever been damaged -- it looks factory new. They respected my budget, didn't push insurance, and treated the job with high-end attention to detail. I rarely leave reviews, but this one was well-earned. If you're debating where to go for bodywork -- just go here. You won't regret it. read more

I have been dealing off and on with body shops my whole life till now. I went shopping with a list of body shops for a body work as the front door on passenger side got crushed badly and included fender bender as well very badly. The person I met at this first stop was so nice ,reasonable and knowledgeable,I thought of giving him a shot. Luckily this proved to be my best decision. Not only the job was done well in time but surpassed my expectations with very reasonable price. I checked that a few things were missed to mention at my end but those were taken care of as well when I picked my Prius. I drove my vehicle for some days and then gave this review as I had some experience with body shops before.I would highly recommend this shop to my friends and will always be grateful to Gary B for the experience! read more
