I clearly told them I would buy all the parts myself, including the lower ball joints, oil, and oil filter, and I did. I was only paying for labor. When I arrived, the price was changed and I was told it would be $250, even though that was not what we agreed on. I understand prices can go up or down, but once a price is agreed on, especially after I canceled a different auto body shop, it should be honored. I also have an audio record of the original conversation. The person who did my oil change was very nice and professional, and I appreciate that. However, changing the price after an agreement was disappointing. I came here based on good reviews and recommendations. Keeping your word matters if you want returning customers.

He was even honest to say that he didn't like the radiator cap that came with the car, and recommended a reliable one (no extra charge, I just made a quick run to Autozone a block away lol).

Have you ever gone to your dealership's service center to get a quote for a repair, and everything…read morethe service shop guy says sounds like the trombone noise adults make in "Peanuts" cartoons, and you leave convinced that you'll have to take out a second mortgage (as if you could actually afford a first) just to get your car repaired? And so, you go home, and you Google "Best independent mechanic in _____ zip code," and you see what pops up on Yelp, and you read some promising reviews, and you make an educated guess as to which mechanic sounds like your best bet, and you drive to their location with a hope and a prayer that this random garage you found on Yelp can fix your vehicle in a timely manner without charging you an arm and a leg. In that case, I'm happy to report that AV Auto can! Long story short, my check engine light came on, I ran (free) diagnostics at AutoZone, I went to the dealership, I left the dealership, I cursed the dealership, and then I found AV Auto on Yelp. AV confirmed the diagnosis (I needed a new engine coolant pump), recommended I get the part online (for a better price), set a time for the repair, and finished the job in less time than they quoted me. If only everything in life was this easy! So if you're reading this, and you're thinking to yourself, "Can I trust this random dude on Yelp about this random garage on Yelp?" the answer is: "Yes. Yes you can."

My experience with Olympic Auto Center has been nothing short of exceptional, making it my go-to…read morechoice for auto repairs in Los Angeles. The integrity and honesty displayed by this shop are unmatched, setting them apart from other shops where I have experienced deceptive business practices such as recommending unnecessary repairs just to get more business. I love my car and I have a solid understanding of cars. So, I know when someone is not proficient or even deceptive. The level of service provided at Olympic Auto Center rivals that of a dealership, if not surpasses it. A recent incident highlighted this superiority: after a disappointing visit to a dealership where they couldn't pinpoint my car's issue, I turned to Olympic Auto Center. Steve, one of their skilled technicians, quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem, showcasing a level of expertise that left me thoroughly impressed. What impressed me even more was their fair price. I am sure that I would have paid substantially more at the dealership. Beyond technical proficiency, what truly sets Olympic Auto Center apart is their personalized approach to customer care. Steve, in particular, stands out for his genuine concern and friendly demeanor. His dedication to ensuring a positive experience reflects the shop's overall commitment to customer satisfaction. Having been a loyal customer for some time, I can attest to the consistency of their high-quality service. Even during busy times when there may be a wait, the assurance of a job done right and at a very fair price makes it well worth it. I highly recommend Olympic Auto Center to anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy auto repairs in LA area. I'll always be coming here for oil change and maintenance for my subaru. Thank you, Steve, and the entire team, for always taking care of me and saving the day =)

However, I took my car "that I've always taken to the dealer for an oil change" here. And the next day it was leaking oil everywhere. Unfortunately, I wasn't in town to bring it right away, and had to bring it back to the shop about 2 weeks later . (Still leaking btw) they said it was the "gasKeT" and I would have to pay another $48 to get this repaired. They said I should have brought it the day after i got the oil changed. Later after all the back and forth they offered to cover the costs for labor ,but I would have to pay for the part. Which was $3. I did not expect for them to charge me at all considering i had returned literally about 2 weeks later. (And called them over the phone twice to advise what was going on" They said i was "taking advantage" and told me god was watching. They said there was no way of knowing the part was damaged or defective . In my opinion they should have checked the gasket while doing the oil change . I ended up paying $10 which I didn't feel was fair but; at least they could pay off their $3 part they replaced. Next day after the lecture and "repair" ITS LEAKING AGAIN! haaaahahah now I have to go to the dealer and figure out what they broke on my car. I'm glad I didn't pay the $48 the second time around considering I came in with a car that was perfectly fine and left with a leaking car . THANK YOU LA TIRES AND AUTO BODY SHOP !!! :) I've spent $120 total for oil, filter, labor, a "gasket" and now I have a car with a bigger problem and NO OIL . DO NOT GO HERE !
