The owner asked amazing questions and super understanding. They recommended me to go to the first place I got my car diagnosed because they knew the owner, and knew the quality of their work. The owner told me he could fix my car but he wasn't part of the beginning to really understand my car troubles. I felt he wasn't trying to rip me off or give me false information. The owner is a genuine person and wants what's best for your car which I really appreciated!

Gino, great guy at the front desk is the first great sign. He says Jose is one of the nicest people ever, couldn't agree more. Definitely helped me out while I was going through a lot. I made the EASIEST mistake known to cars, and they could of easily overcharged me, but didn't. And honestly for that, I am so grateful. I didn't make the best first impression, but they did. Think I found my new mechanic. If vou liked what vou read and need to get your car fixed, come to Orange Empire Auto!

My request went through the Yelp Project page first and Jose was very fast with his response. He told me I could come in on a Friday morning as a walk in. Gino who took care of my intake was very friendly and made me feel welcome. They also had a comfy waiting area stocked with complimentary coffee and snacks, but I didn't need to wait long because I was out of there within an hour, oil changed and tires rotated. Their prices are fair and they accept both credit card and cash/Zelle (if you want to avoid the 3% credit card surcharge). During the oil change they also noted some things that will need repair, but weren't pushy with their recommendations. For that I am very appreciative, and will most definitely come back for their continued services.

My car's electronic parking brake system needed to be reset because the car was showing an error…read moreafter my husband change the pads and rotors, the parking brake was working fine but the computer wouldn't reset. I went to the pos Puente Hills Mitsubishi at first for help and was told it would be $300 to disassemble the entire braking system to even have it diagnosed when all it needed was a 5min reset by specialty computer tool. Came here to Tokyo Automotive Repair to see if they could help, and Kevin upfront was so nice. The tech, Kai I believe, took care of it right away! No more error beeping. Never going to the dealership again.

I'm always on time with oil changes 5k miles no matter what year... I relied on the old reviews of this place with Tatsu but I agree, I met Kevin and he isn't that welcoming, not sure if he's going thru something in his life and taking it out on customer but I also agree, he's short, can come off as rude and idk, doesn't seem to enjoy talking to customers about cars. I asked for oil change only and got quoted over 200$? He tried to say the better oil was recommended but like dude I can go to valvoline right now for 100$ no questions asked.. I think they try to charge more because they use high tech diagnostic equipment which is great for major issues but for simple things I was displeased to get upsold when my almost new car is in great condition..... I was hoping to build a lasting relationship with this place but I'm going back to my trusted dealer who is a bit farther but worth the drive, Fitzgeralds Auto in Costa Mesa or OC Masters Tech in Orange for my MAZDA!

He is Neel the owner (as you might've guessed) of this establishment on Imperial Hwy, which is thankfully not too far from us. He diagnoses quickly, gets the job done efficiently, charges reasonably compared to other mechanics we've gone to in the area, and above all is a man of integrity--he's allowed us to pay for certain repairs days later to make sure our car is running properly first. He is transparent about his shop's limitations (they don't do German cars but refer us to highly rated shops nearby). He is clearly very experienced and knows how to weigh the best repair options, especially for older vehicles. I plan on relying on Neel for years to come. Cheers!

They were busy but insured me it would only be about two hours for an oil change, break inspection, and tire rotation. Got a call about an hour later from Neel himself saying my Rav 4 was ready to go and didn't hassle me about doing any additional work, which I feel you get every time at a mechanic shop. It was a great feeling to just get the service and feed back you requested. Thanks Neel and Hector for the honestly, professional input, and transparency. Look forward to working with your company in the future. Only downside is parking. Be patient and you'll find one.

I have brought my girlfriend's SUV to Frank a few times in recent months and wanted to write an…read moreupdate. One visit was to troubleshoot the air conditioning, which was barely cool at best. I was hoping it just needed a Freon recharge. After checking the A/C system, Frank confirmed that the Freon was just low and everything else looked good. Luckily, her older car uses the newer, less expensive Freon. I just hung out while he recharged the system, and it was ready to go about 20 minutes later. The cost was only $150, money well spent to get ice cold air conditioning back. The most recent visit was to troubleshoot a service error code and ABS and brake warning lights. I was hoping this would just be a sensor on one of the wheels, but Frank said it looked like the main ABS ECU unit was faulty. Given the potential cost of the repair, it didn't make sense given the value of the car. I appreciated his honest opinion. He said there was no charge, but I still tipped him for his time because he always takes great care of me. I have tried a few other shops in the area over the years, and had initial good experiences. However, they all eventually gave me an estimate I knew as wrong, or didn't do work they said they did. I've been going to Frank ever since, and trust him 100%. If you need a top notch mechanic, Frank is your guy!

If you're looking for a shop that specializes in German vehicles and values customer service as much as quality repairs, I highly recommend Mike's Foreign Car.

I got a few quotes before deciding to bring my 2014 Prius Plug-in here, and I'm really glad I did…read more They weren't the cheapest and they weren't the most expensive, but I felt like they charged what they needed to in order to get the job done I had no idea they even worked on hybrids because I never saw that mentioned anywhere, and I think more people should know. They took the time to explain the repair, confirmed the diagnostic code, and even pointed out a few things I should do to help my Prius last longer. They noticed my hybrid battery cooling fan was missing after I told them I just had it "replaced" at another shop. That's the kind of information you don't usually get from a repair shop. They ended up not needing to drop the subframe, so they adjusted the labor instead of charging me for work they didn't have to do. It still took the amount of time they said it was going to take, but still discounted me a little bit which I thought was cool. I also had them do an oil change while it was there, and even that was less expensive than what I normally pay at places like Jiffy Lube or Valvoline. If you own a Prius or any hybrid, I'd definitely recommend checking them out. More than anything, I left feeling like they genuinely know these cars and took the time to educate me, not just fix it. I'll definitely be bringing my Prius back if I ever need anything else.
