Sebastian was great! Always friendly and helpful in anyway that he could. He's saved me twice now. I'd highly recommend coming to him for any Prius hybrid battery replacements! read more

100+ 5 star reviews do not lie! I spoke to Sabastian on monday, 5/11, and he suspected it was a failed hybrid battery based on the little I shared. He came to my location on 5/12 and did the diagnosis which confirmed the failed hybrid battery. he uninstalled the failed battery and popped in the refurbished battery. my dashboard no longer looks like a christmas tree. kudos to your workmanship and I will most definitely refer you to folks. read more

hybridLAB Battery - Hybrid Car Repair Near Me - Santa Clarita, California

I did a really deep dive into the replacement batteries, and saw many warranties in the 3-month to 6-month, for the standard $600-$1000 that seems the going rate- so assuming that I'd get 1 day beyond those warranties, or worse yet, would those companies still exist after 3-6 months to honor that warrantee, so I decided to spend a few more hundred, with a company that's been around a while, and does nothing but hybrid batteries. I opted for a 3-year warranty and now have a piece of mind that I'll be good for the next probably 5 years- And, if per chance we decide to sell Mighty Mouse, every possible buyer would be much more apt to buy with a better battery- Plus who in the world wants to spend $4000 at the dealer? Anyways the company owner himself arrived exactly on time and did a super clean and efficient swap, and everything was great read more

When I started this process, I was very discouraged with what I was told I'd have to pay for a hybrid battery from the Lexus dealership. My car is nearly 12 years old and this was my first time needing to replace. With what Lexus quoted me, I decided to look elsewhere. Along that search, I found this company ran by Sabastian. He was the third business I called but the communication was so clear, I quickly chose his services over the others. I also decided to just go with the fully refurbished battery pack with upgraded non-corrosive nickel plated bus bars with a 3-yr warranty. He's truly a great guy and would HIGHLY recommend him for all your hybrid battery needs. read more

We had a great experience with HybridLAB! Getting a quote was easy and the response time was fast. Once we brought the car in, Sabastian finished the job in less than an hour. It's been a month now and the car is running perfectly. Highly recommend! read more

Thank you Sabastian! We corresponded in 2024 but it turned out I didn't need the hybrid battery to be replaced at that time. Flash forward to this year 2025..I now needed it to be replaced. Sabastian was quick to respond to my messages here on Yelp and gave me a quote. The quote is the best value around LA. I made calls to other spots but none could beat HybridLAB's prices and value. Includes warranty as well. Honestly I was more attracted with these raving Yelp reviews. I've been driving around town since Sebastian replaced it (almost a month ago now), and so far it's been a smoother ride. Overall it was an easy transaction, good communication, and quick work. Hopefully this battery will be good for another 10+ years! Thank you! read more

Excellent and quick home service. Already shared their info with a friend. Would definitely use again. Highly knowledgeable.

Replaced the battery in my 2013 Lexus. Sebastian is very nice, the mobile service was quick and convenient. The battery enclosement (marked N) was not identical to mine (marked N1) but Sebastian assured me they are compatible. I paid for 3 years warranty so I'll update if anything happens. Price was similar to other providers. read more

Our 2012 Prius hybrid battery finally gave out, and after calling several independent shops (the dealership was by far the most expensive), we found HybridLAB Battery. From the moment we spoke with Sabastian, the decision was easy, no comparison and no need to keep searching. His communication was clear, honest, and professional, and he's genuinely one of the nicest people you'll meet. Sabastian arrived on time and replaced the battery at our location in under an hour. The car was back on the road running smoothly, and the entire process was seamless. We were especially relieved by his warranty options, which gave us peace of mind. It's rare to find someone so trustworthy who truly cares about their work and their customers. We wish all small businesses were run like this. 10/10 across the board, communication, professionalism, pricing, warranty options, and quality of work. Highly recommend HybridLAB Battery! read more

I recently got my hybrid battery replace and Sebastian was able to provide me a great service compared to my first experience with another company. The first company sold me a battery for 1 year or 10,000 mile warranty and by the 10 month the battery was not working. My mileage was over 10,100 which the hybrid maintenance light went on. When I call the company the first thing he ask me was why didn't I buy a new battery and bought the cheapest offer. I was shock because it was never offer to me. He ask me for the warranty, he told me I was not cover. I did not feel the company care about the customer in fact it felt like a scam. I read the reviews of that company, I was not the only one got trick, but another person got the same experience. When I research and found hybrid lab and read all the reviews I felt confident this was the place. Sebastian made my transaction easy I find him very professional in customer service and know what he is doing. He gave warranty that you can feel that his stuff is quality. Thank Sebastian for the great experience. I definitely would recommend this place. read more

If you're looking to get your battery replaced, look no further than hybridLAB Battery! Sebastian is extremely responsive, friendly, and goes out of his way to be helpful. I really appreciated the way he came to where my car was parked so that I wouldn't have to tow my car to him. He's really honest and trustworthy and I absolutely recommend his service. read more

My Prius was throwing the triangle of death code and Sabastian was quick to quote me at a very very reasonable price and was even more quick to come and change out my hybrid battery. Extremely friendly and professional. Customer service score if 10/10. Service was 10/10. I can't recommend Hybridlab battery enough. Thanks Sabastian and thank you HybridLab! read more

hybridLAB Battery - Hybrid Car Repair Near Me - Santa Clarita, California

The service, battery replacement was seamless. Sebastian arrived on time and provided an honest diagnosis of my situation. He tested both my Prius' and found one to need replacement. The work was completed in less than an hour and was done at a reasonable price. The car is charging and running fine. Thank you Hybrid Lab for your.excellence! read more

Specializes in Prius free battery replacement check, and $1100-$1600 battery replacement only. Not a mechanic. If your red triangle symbol lights+engine like keeps lighting up (and it's not an oil refill issue), then call them. Sebastian was nice enough to drive over to check on my battery for a second opinion. I messaged via Yelp, and it was an easy appointment setup (next day for me). He seems very knowledgeable in Prius in general as a Prius owner himself. My mechanic couldn't figure out my story about my red triangle light that came up 2x that happened a year ago. I thought it was because we were in a region where it was below 30F degrees? - He thought I may need a battery replacement. I ended up spending like $150 on an engine diagnostic to first check if my engine was good enough/worth a battery replacement. Then a year later, I was told that my battery seems fine and don't need a replacement. It's been a confusing journey. = Turned out my triangle indicator was a false alarm. According to Sebastian, it's a common that the red triangle sign lights up when there isn't enough oil. As my car ages, it's been burning oil fast and I need an oil change every 3k mileage now. Sebastian's explanation makes sense to me. How do I know if I need to replace my battery, or even which one needs replacement? I learned from Sebastian that the Prius has 2 Batteries: 1. Hybrid battery (works engine). - Replacement needed if the red triangle + check engine light keeps coming up (sometimes VSC, lots of lights like 4 lights). If all lights are lighting up, and the back seat vents are blowing = for sure indicator. Even if lights come on, you still have a safety time to get replaced. - Fake Alarm like my red triangle lighting up but not continuously: Can just add more Oil. If your car is 100k, then your mechanic is most likely using synthetic oil. - Fake Alarm like if the dashboard battery shows full to nothing all the time,is fine. Only if any of those warn signs like triangle to engine lights, then it's important. 2. 12 Volt/starter (lights, unlocking car). - Can tell if it's going bad if you can't unlock your car door, or your lights go out. Example is it you accidentally left the lights on too light. This is an easier replacement than the hybrid battery. If you need a hybrid battery replacement, then they have the best warranty around! They don't offer new batteries. They offer OEM refurbished battery replacements, which is like new. 1. Battery Check: 10min. Access needed via front seat. 2. Refurbished OEM - 12-Month / Unlimited-Mile Warranty for ($1,100) - 24-Month / Unlimited-Mile Warranty for ($1,400) - 36-Month / Unlimited-Mile Warranty for ($1,600) Vs - New Replacements would usually cost $3k-$4k without labor charge yet, and only 2 year warranty. Same function as refurbished. read more

Great experience got my car in and out in less than an hour and a good price with a good location.

Bought a hybrid battery replacement from hybridLAB for my 2009 Prius. Showed up on time. 'Had a SNAFU with the smaller 12 Volt battery also failing and needed to get one from the store. Their tech, Sebastian waited around and also installed the new 12 Volt fast. Car's running great. Great, friendly service. 'Very impressed. read more

What can I not say. Sebastian provided Top Notch service to me and my husband. I was having an issue with my 2009 Toyota Camry Hybrid. This is the 2nd time I would need a rapier for my hybrid battery. The last person whom repaired it doesn't do that service anymore so I had to find someone New (hybridLAB LA) so I went to Yelp and started looking and reading. I found 3 places. Called them, asked questions, left messages & received Estimates based on the info I provided to them. Sebastian hands down was the best. He returned my call and provided the utmost Customer Service. All of his Reviews were Amazing and now I see why. I spoke to my husband about it and we decided to go with him. We scheduled but has to reschedule due to an unexpected situation where he wouldn't have access to the vehicle. Fast forward a week. He comes to my house to do the repair, he is a mobile service. This was really great for me because I had used several of my toes with AAA. He repairs, my hubby tips him and he's on his way. 2 days later (Check Hybrid System) message appears again. My husband called him and explained what was happening. Least this time I could still drive to work & home only since my car was starting. Before he did the 1st repair, it wouldn't start at all. Now it's been another week since 1st repair. He comes back to my home, takes another look. Talks to my husband about the codes he's getting and repairs my Camry for the 2nd time. It's been smooth sailing every since. I am truly grateful. With the high interest rates right now, buying a New car wasn't the way to go. He saved Us time, money and stress. I will refer Sebastian and his business to all I know whom drive hybrid cars. He's definitely the Specialist you want. I have a warranty and he extended that since he had to come back, it was a year only now it's 18 months. Stellar Customer Service. He's honest and dependable. He does what he says! Again, I will refer him always! My bad so long, Yelp but this is what people need to know. Thanks , Sebastian! :) read more

hybridLAB Battery - My Hybrid Car Battery. 2nd replacement. I never knew the battery was so big. - Hybrid Car Repair Near Me - Santa Clarita, California

I got a replacement hybrid battery by Sabastian a few months ago and I have had zero problems with my Lexus CT200H since then. He is a stand up guy who genuinely does this because he wants to help people. He came directly to my house to do the work and got it done in about an hour. Insane speed, he really knows what he is doing. Incredible value as well with a really good warranty. I would highly recommend him for your hybrid needs. read more

I reached out to HybridLAB & they were quick to respond. The gentleman who helped me knew exactly what was wrong with my car without coming out to diagnose it. My car was out of gas, I added some gas and it started running. Thank you guys! He's awesome!! Fast and reliable! Answered all my questions read more

Sebastian replaced the hybrid battery in my 2010 Toyota Prius. He was very friendly and showed me the codes that my car had. Unfortunately the hybrid battery was bad and needed to be replaced. He explained to me the options he provided with the warranty options. He was very quick, the job took him about 30mins. I am very pleased with the service he provided. Would hands down recommend to any Prius owner!!! Thanks again Sebastian for giving my Prius new life!! read more

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Sabastian! About a month ago, the 12 V battery died in my 2012 Prius, so I had AAA come out and replace it. Then a few weeks later when I was driving home from work, all of the lights on my dash came on with a message that said to check the hybrid battery system. I barely made it home as my car was stalling. I called AAA to come back and check thinking it was the new battery they had just installed. The agent determined that it wasn't the new battery, it was the hybrid battery that needed to be fixed. I went online to research replacement hybrid batteries, and I came across hybridLAB battery. I contacted Sabastian and he was able to come the next day, which was amazing because I could not be without a car. When he checked, he determined that it was not the hybrid battery that was causing the issue. It was the IPM and it just so happened that he helped another customer with the same problem. The other customer was able to find out that there was a class action lawsuit against Toyota regarding this issue. As part of the settlement, they would replace the IPM at no charge or provide a reimbursement check. Sabastian even had a picture of the customer's claim form that he was able to forward to me. When I offered to at least pay him for his time to come out and check my battery, he flat out refused. He was just happy to help. So, I called the number on the form and was able to arrange the replacement with my local Toyota dealership. There is a national shortage of replacement IPMs so it did take a few weeks for them to fix my car. But I'm so grateful that I randomly found Sabastian's company online because I would not have known about this lawsuit otherwise. And I would have probably spent a fortune fixing the car on my own! When my hybrid battery does finally die, I will definitely be calling Sabastian again. read more

Sabastian continues to provide exceptional service! Unfortunately, my Camry experienced the same issue with its battery. Sabastian was able to come out to diagnose and replace the battery under warranty. Not only that, Sabastian provided helpful info on what causes these batteries to go bad and tips we can do to keep these batteries happy and healthy as long as possible. Thank you, Sabastian! read more

I just want to take the time to give a shout out to thank Sebastian. I had my 2013 Lexus Hybrid battery changed. He was very efficient and professional. I wanted to to thank you for your excellent work on my vehicle. Appreciate your attention to detail and professionalism really stand out. read more

I replaced a battery 2 years ago with them and I drove more than 100 thousand miles already. It still works great.

Sabastian helped me figure out that it wasn't my hybrid battery that needed replacing. He could have easily scammed me because I knew so little about my Prius but he didn't. He even sent me a YouTube video on how to reset my 12v battery. He did all of this over text and for free. read more

Sabastian is AWESOME!! From start to finish, my experience with him and hybridLAB LA could not have been any better. Sabastian is a true professional and very likable. I got the dreaded "Check Hybrid System" warning in my Prius C recently (106k miles and 9 years of use). I researched all my options and decided to give Yelp quotes a try too. Sabastian replied the next morning and quoted me very reasonable numbers/options, especially considering how an OEM hybrid battery from Toyota is $3-4k. After reading all of Sabastian's glowing and consistent Yelp reviews, I made an appointment. True to his word, Sabastian showed up at my work on time, talked me through what he was going to do, and took care of the diagnosis and actual battery swap all in one hour! Incredible! Sabastian was also very patient with me as I had to work through a minor issue with my card company to make sure he got paid properly. Again, from start to finish, I don't think I could have had any better of an experience. I also don't think I could have found a better service than what he provided! Thank you again, Sabastian! I highly recommend hybridLAB LA!! read more

Great job I called Sebastian to come and replace my 2015 Toyota Prius hybrid battery and he came to fix it to my home in a timely manner and when he got there, he was really honest with me and he let me know that my car was still covered under the warranty for the hybrid battery. Great honest guy here !!! Thank you so much I will be sure to recommend you guys to anyone. He could have just took my money but instead he had integrity that's hard to find now days ! read more

Didn't realize I never reviewed this guy. 2.5 years in and maybe 50k miles or so, my battery is still going strong. I recently even recommended him to an Uber driver I was chatting with. I highly recommend! read more

These are the highlights. Excellent price, excellent product, excellent communication, and excellent workmanship. Sabastian is an intelligent businessman and a skilled technician. On top of that, he is a good family man. I was ready to send an older car that I really love to the scrap yard, but now have a vehicle that is performing to spec again. After several weeks, the battery pack has functioned perfectly and I feel confident moving forward with the provided warranty and this businesses track record. I worked in the collision repair industry for 20 years and witnessed my share of sub par vendors and poor workmanship. It is good to know that a business like hybridLAB LA is servicing this demographic. If you are in their service area, look no further. read more

hybridLAB Battery - Thanks to hybridLAB LA, my 2008 Toyota Camry Hybrid with 125K miles is running great again! - Hybrid Car Repair Near Me - Santa Clarita, California

I replaced my dead 2013 Prius battery with a new-and-improved cylindrical aftermarket battery. I was very proud of myself. The modules on that new-and-improved battery started dying this year. My car started throwing codes at me over the past couple months. I was getting around this by erasing the code every time the "PULL OVER AND ADDRESS THE PROBLEMS IN YOUR LIFE YOU FOOL" message popped up on my dashboard. The message started popping up more and more frequently, so I decided to stop ignoring it. When you have a dead battery you have a few options. You can swap out the individual dead modules and hope for the best, you can buy your own refurbished/aftermarket/upgraded battery and hope you know what you're doing, or you can go to a Toyota dealership and spend $4000+. Or you use a service that swaps out your battery with a reconditioned one and provides a warranty. This is the way to go with an older Prius that's been ubered within an inch of its life. HybridLAB has a great price, is super responsive (I hit them up on yelp and got the rates right away), and provides prompt mobile service. It's the best option for folks in the LA area who want a reconditioned battery. Sabastian diagnosed my car, walked me through the problem, and swapped out my battery in less than an hour. Now my car works. Would recommend. read more

Sebastian quoted me for less than half of what Toyota quoted me. I was told my car was totaled but he replaced the battery and my Prius is running like new. He came to my house to replace it, he was on time and incredibly nice and professional. I cannot recommend him enough!! Also, you're supporting an LA local's business when you work with him! read more

Sebastian is very knowledgeable with the hybrid battery, very friendly and helpful. He replaced my hybrid battery for my car in under an hour. Highly recommended. read more

Just had my hybrid battery replaced and my car works perfectly. Good price and 3 years warranty. Highly recommend.

HybridLab was the way to go! Best price, best warranty, best service, on time. Sebastian came to my home and had my battery replaced in 30 minutes. Showed me all the diagnostics and answered all my questions. He took all the sketchiness out of it and is a stand up guy. And no, he didn't ask me to write a 5 star review. read more

What you read on Yelp about Sebastian is true. He is honest and he knows his trade. He came all the way out to Castaic to diagnose the problem on my 2012 Prius C and recommended replacing the mass airflow sensor instead of replacing the hybrid battery. His diagnoses was spot on and it saved me a lot of money because I replaced the sensor, and its back up and running. Thank you Sebastian! Bill read more

It's been 3 years since Sabastian last replaced the hybrid battery on my 2007 Toyota Prius. The battery finally gave out, and I knew I had to reach out to him again. I chose Sabastian out of all the other competitors because his service is top notch, and he is a man of honesty and integrity. The service took less than an hour, very quick and efficient. It was great to catch up with Sabastian again after all these years since the first time I inquired about his services 3 years ago and hearing how he's been busy raising his son. Seeing the evolution of his business when he first started out to the present day brings a smile to my face. We've both been through a lot these past few years, and I am happy to see him doing well. I also received a discount for being a repeat customer. Don't hesitate to message or give him a call for all your hybrid car needs. Thank you again for the amazing service, Sabastian! read more

Thanks Sebastian! The service was GREAT and he had the car back up and running in a couple of hours. Not only did he have it back up and running, the car now gets better mileage. If you have a Toyota Hyrbid and your battery needs to be changed out, call Sebastian. I would 100% recommend his services to anyone. read more

HybridLAB has been heaven sent. Our 2005 Toyota Prius hybrid battery was not working well and prior to meeting HybridLAB was diagnosed at a Toyota dealership with the recommendation of a new hybrid battery for $3,300. Insane amount right??? For a 2005 Prius with 246,000 miles !!!! It was obviously out of our price range and we even pondered on the thought of possibly letting our Prius go. Thanks to Yelp we found HybridLAB. HybridLAB is owned by Sabastian. He works mobile and he came to our home the day after we spoke with him to work on the battery. He repaired our hybrid battery at an affordable price by swapping the cells that were not working. Our Prius was back out on the road the same day he worked on it. He arrived early and as soon as we met him we knew this young man enjoys what he does. He has great customer service skills and is very professional. He is knowledgeable about hybrid systems and components. He brought his own equipment and tools. We are now a week in and our Prius is running GREAT! We are beyond thankful. If you have any hybrid issues HybridLab is the way togo. Thank you Sabastian. read more

Sabastian replaced the hybrid battery on our 2011 Prius today and his service, knowledge and professionalism were top notch! Sabastian was able to come to our house and diagnose the problem, give us a quote and then come back and perform the repair the very next day. He was done within the quoted amount of time and took his time at the end to ensure that it was running and all the alert lights were off. Sabastian is honest and personable and we had 100% trust in his work. We won't need another hybrid battery replacement for a while thanks to his two year warranty but would definitely recommend him to anyone in need! read more

I had lost power while driving on the express lane on a freeway. That was scary, and luckily I got out. I've had my Prius for years, and had never experienced anything like that. Looking up at the dash I noticed a "Check Hybrid System" code. I called three different repair shops, but all were trying to charge so much JUST for a diagnosis. I ended up taking my car to a local mechanic I found on Yelp with great reviews. Initially things seemed great. However after leaving it, I had a hunch that they really didn't find the root of the problem. Sadly I paid the diagnosis fee, and took my car home after they said I needed a battery replacement (which I hadn't ruled out) but I wasn't 100% sure they really found the root issue. I sent a message to Sebastian, and he responded really quick. His messages were clear, friendly, and concise He offered to come check out the car, and even gave me a preliminary diagnosis by stating that he thinks the issue isn't the battery based off of information I gave him. We made plans for him to come check it out, and upon arriving presented himself in a very professional manner, and was really easy to approach. He checked my car, and as he thought, it was something other than what the other mechanic had said. He gave me a run through of what the issue was. I asked him how much I owed him for the diagnosis and how much he would charge to fix the issue. To my surprise Sebastian didn't charge me for the diagnosis. He also said that he didn't work on the specific problem I had (his area of focus is batteries). But offered to refer me if I needed that. I decided to try to fix the issue myself, and he WAS RIGHT! He saved me soooo much money. The part I had to replace was only $90 compared to $2000 for a battery! I'm still in disbelief about how helpful and honest Sebastian was. If you're feeling unsure and want someone who's knowledgeable, approachable, and honest he's your guy. Thank you again Sebastian. read more
