I've been having my 2015 Mazda3 serviced here for years, and the team always does a great job. They're efficient, honest, and the service comes at a great value and a reasonable price. There have been a few times when they could have tried to upsell me on something I didn't really need, but instead they were always upfront with me. My one tip: schedule in advance, because they can get a little busy. Thanks, Cassie and team! read more

Took my Mazda in after the dealership told me it needed control arm replacements. Overseas was about 20% less expensive. I'll be back for my next big service! read more

The specific air conditioning service that my car required couldn't be performed at this shop but I appreciated the professionalism and promptness of Overseas Garage. Cassie emailed me back quickly and offered a fantastic AC auto shop, Lynn's Auto Air. I'll be calling Overseas Garage for future car issues. Thank you! read more

Good honest service! I had AC troubles and other places did an AC flush but otherwise didn't properly diagnose the issue. Cassie figured out it was a slow leak in the condenser and got me squared away PROPERLY! Will return! read more

Had my car checked for an oil leak. The shop is small so I had to leave my car there for about 5 hrs. Cassie (the mechanic) called me with her findings. She explained to me what was going on and answered any questions I had. She also gave me tips/ideas on how to move forward as they unfortunately dont do the repair I required. Cassie came off as honest and helpful. Went to the dealer and they confirmed Cassie's findings. Prices at Overseas Garage were fair. Would highly recommend her for any car repair needs. read more

follow up, i had to bring my car back 3 times, it keep eating the brake pads. a simple google search revealed that sometimes the master cylinder goes out causing this. they didn't even bother check massive waste of time and short-sited. read more

Awesome, fast, reliable service. Cassie and her team took care of my vehicle. Definitely would recommend.

Cassie is an absolute legend. She's fixed my car twice now, ahead of schedule and more affordable than every other location in LB. Today she sent me home with a box of Girl Scout cookies, which absolutely made my day! read more

Absolutely love this shop! Was looking for a place that specialized in Subarus and dealerships charge an arm and a leg for oil changes. Saw many other reviews on this place and as a visitor, I decided to try it out. Went so well that I came back to get my Lower Control Arms replaced for my 2018 Subaru Forester Premium. Even let me know I had a nail in my tire. So I took it to Discount Tire to get it fixed. Everyone was great. Cassie is the owner and she and her right hand mechanic checked for the reason why I was shaking over 60 mph. It was the usual LCA. Left it for the day, they ordered the part, and was done by the end of day! Making an appointment is a must as they are VERY small. But I was able to make an appt for my oil change a few days after my call (due to my schedule) and then for my LCA 2 days after! The pricing was better to beat as the dealership would've quoted me $1600+. Cassie and her team are very honest and even offered to wash off most of the mud in the engine bay for a small fee! I wished there was a shop like this in Visalia or Fresno. :( but as a visitor, I def recommend! read more

This is the only shop I trust with my van. Normally I'll do my own wrenching, but my '07 Toyota sienna has 20 year old wiring and I just don't want to deal with it. First time I came in was a no start with a strong battery. I figured the starter motor was shot and needed replacing. I got on the phone with Cassie (I hope I'm spelling that right). Brought it in and told her the starter motor has to be shot and needs replacing. She said they'd take a look and it'd be ready for pickup the following Wednesday (they get busy, it was the previous Friday I believe). Got a call Monday that it was ready for pickup. I came by expecting an expensive fix, somewhere to the tune of $350-$500 (thinking I would've done cartwheels out of there for $350). Cassie let me know that they'd found a bad ground, got it together, and I was out the door at ~$100. Recently had another no start issue about 8 months later, again thought that starter motor was finally shot. Strong battery and everything. Spoke to Cassie who was able to deal with the tow truck dropping it off without me even there. I went in, expressed my starter motor concern, and left. Once again, this was a Friday and I was told pickup would be Wednesday. The following Monday, I get a call, vans ready. I get into the shop once again thinking I'd be excited about $350. Cassie explains to me that there was a loose connection on the wire into the starter motor that shook out, and the starter motor is fine. I was out the door for ~$70. No other shop will ever wrench on my cars. White glove service and communication, better-than-dealer quality work, and absolutely trustworthy. To Cassie (again I hope I'm spelling that right), thank you so much. read more

Went here for routine maintenance on my RAV4. I used to take it to the dealership for every 5,000 mile/6 month service, but they had a backlog and this place is actually closer to me than the dealership. Service was performed in a timely manner and everyone I interacted with was very nice and professional. Price-wise it's a little more expensive than going to the dealership (which is why I'm giving it 4 stars), but depending on where you live it could be more convenient and it's nice to support a small, local business. read more

My husband and I have been loyal customers of Overseas Garage for years, consistently returning because of their honesty and integrity. Unlike other shops, Overseas Garage never tries to sell you unnecessary repairs, ensuring you pay only for what your vehicle truly needs. Our initial experience with Overseas Garage proved their reliability. We brought our car in after another garage quoted us a repair cost of $800.00 to $1,000.00. Overseas Garage carefully examined our vehicle and determined that it was not as bad as previously diagnosed. Instead, the actual repair needed was much less severe, costing only $170.00. This transparent approach immediately earned our trust. Cassie is truly a professional at Overseas Garage and stands out for her expertise and dedication. She is both professional and knowledgeable, consistently delivering quality work at reasonable prices. One of the aspects we appreciate most is her transparency: there are no hidden charges, and the price she quotes is always the price you pay. Based on years of positive experiences, Overseas Garage has become the only automotive shop we trust with our vehicles. Their honest practices, fair pricing, and commitment to customer satisfaction make them our go-to choice for all our automotive needs. Unnecessary repairs, ensuring you pay only read more

Brakes for 2015 Nissan Rogue. Cassie always takes care of me. She's professional, knowledgeable & her estimates are accurate NO hidden charges. The work is done quickly & with quality! The prices are reasonable. She also offered to power wash my driveway if for some reason, oil spilled. What other shop would do that. None. Will be making this my shop. Thanks Cassie read more

Starter went out on my car. Checked Yelp for somewhere nearby to tow to. Overseas was close, had great reviews, & gave me a great quote over phone. Got it back the next day & even shaved a few bucks off. These ladies were awesome!! Found a mechanic I can trust!! read more

Beyond pleased with my experience at Overseas and with Cassie. They were so fast on response and repair. It was the best experience I had at a garage in years. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Honest mechanics work here!! I brought my 2001 Toyota Highlander here for a second opinion after i drove across country and the check engine light came on. I asked that they read the code and give me an idea of upcoming work I'd need. I mentioned I wasn't sure if I wanted to invest more into the vehicle due to the age & history of it but I was looking for professional guidance. They 100% delivered. Their verdict was honest and forthcoming. They knew they wouldn't profit from it but they still let me know my vehicle had a list of upcoming items that'd need maintenance. Cassie was as kind as possible when she let me know she wouldn't take my vehicle on long trips due to safety concerns. She also didn't suggest I invest more into it. All in all it was what I needed to hear. As I mentioned before this was my second opinion. The first mechanic I took it to quickly suggested I spend 800$ to switch out a spark plug and replace a sensor. This same mechanic had just charged me 450$ to switch out an air filter valve promising that would fix this same issue. They would've allowed me to continue throwing money into this vehicle if I let them so i am so so so very glad I went with my gut and asked this team to look at my vehicle instead. Thanks for the professionalism! read more

Has been my third or fourth time going here! Cassie is fantastic and I feel confident leaving my car here knowing that it'll be handled and fixed and that it won't cost an arm and a leg to repair! Always happy with the service. read more

Updating my review after a few years - Overseas is still a 5 star joint. I moved about 20 minutes away and went to another mechanic twice but ended up back at Overseas because they are worth the drive. They diagnose car problems here but are never pushy and offer reasonable prices. Also, as a woman, I love how friendly and approachable Cassie is when it comes to all my car questions and needs. She is the reason why I'll continue coming to Overseas for my Mazda. read more

They fixed a problem I've had for yeaaarrrsss. No one could figure it out before! Cassie was great at explaining all of the issues and even showing me the issues on my car :) read more

OMG!! I haven't been here for a bit, and the garage has changed hands since I've been there BUT, Overseas Garage has not lost a step!!! This garage is GREAT!! They let me know that I don't need to spend 100's (or thousands) like I have to at the local Honda dealer - to have a local garage take great care of my vehicle!!! THANK YOU Overseas Garage for your care and quality!!! You all are great!!! I will be back!! read more

I apologize for posting this review so late. The apology is because I am so thrilled that I have finally come to a place with true customer service! Cassie and her colleague, spent time to troubleshoot a problem with my car for over 30 minutes and it turned out. It was not a quick fix. They charge me nothing for their time and effort, I returned to have additional service from Cassie, and totally feel a deep sense of trust, and expertise coming from Cassie and the overseas garage team. They will get all my future business. read more

Last year, I took my daughter's high mileage (over 135k mi) recently purchased from a horrible used car lot (but dirt cheap! 4 past owners, past accident record, registered first in Florida then Louisiana, almost junk, so crappy) '07 Nissan Versa to this shop for a thorough mechanical inspection. They solved all the mysterious rattle noises (belt tensioner & motor mount) as well as all the cylinder misfires and bad (& incorrect) ignition coils, scraped/replaced makeshift silicone gasket and a major tune-up! All for a fair price. Since then, this scrappy car has been used for major daily commuting (LBC to Hollywood) in addition to some long distance road trips with no mechanical issues at all. I think Overseas Garage did a fine job of keeping this car running smoothly. I'd recommend them for your high mileage Japanese cars. read more

Overseas is awesome. The owner diagnosed with barely any input from myself, and the work was done right for a fair (if not a little cheaper than expected) price. For my Honda, I'm not going anywhere else. read more

STEPH JUDGEMENT: An honest, thorough, and friendly car repair business. My 2015 Subaru Forester started making rattling noises at high speeds on the freeway and I knew I needed to get it checked out. I'd brought my car here for an oil change once or twice, but it had always been more convenient for me to take my car to the dealership on Cherry when I used to work in an office. Now that I work from home, this place has become more convenient, so I decided to give them a try. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that they were able to see my car right away. Initially they thought it might be my front axels, but once they got in there they determined that it was the control arms (ended up being about the same price). It ended up taking a little longer than they first estimated because of this, but it was still OK with me. They were also able to fix my faulty windshield wiper nozzle for a nominal price, although it ended up being a bit more work than they originally estimated, due to a broken hose clamp or something. ANYHOO, long story short, I was very pleased with my interaction with the business (I didn't get the young woman's name, but from the other reviews I gather it's Cassie?), and felt I got a good value for my money with the repairs. I will definitely be coming back in the future. read more

I've been putting my oil change off for weeks! Haven't we all done that? A simple oil change can seem so daunting for some reason. I called and spoke with Cassie, the owner (wooohooo female owned and operated!), also happens to be an old neighbor of mine from 8 years ago! They gave me an appointment for the following morning, perfect! During change they saw my previous mechanic put the wrong plug or-something-or-other on somewhere and had to replace it so it would take a bit more time. They fixed it up, didn't charge extra for the extra work.... so i tipped!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go to overseas... pleasant, trustworthy, and thorough. read more

The folks at Overseas Garage are an asset to Long Beach. I typically do most maintenance on my vehicles myself but sometimes you just need a second set of eyes to look at your vehicle. After my truck sat for almost 2 years it was experiencing typical issues that any car would have for sitting for so long. The folks at Overseas Garage listened to me and made me feel heard and respected. They understood where I was coming from. They took their time to diagnose my truck and figured out the issues. I was having idle issues and an accompanied stumble under light throttle input. After they smoke tested my engine and found 3 vacuum leaks that I missed. they replaced the vacuum hoses that were leaking and only charged me one hour of labor even though I know they spent more than an hour going through my truck checking everything. My truck is 25 years old. It's hard to find people that still want to work on OBD1 vehicles. They also advised me on a repair they think I should do on my own (to save money since they know I am mechanically inclined) and I took their advice and it further helped my truck run better. These folks are simply amazing. If I'm in the 562 area and I need some help with my vehicle I know I can count on them to properly diagnose, repair, and advise me on what needs to be done. I'm glad I took my truck to them. read more

You can 100% trust the reviews. Great and thoughtful service. I appreciate the proactive communication and willingness to explain whatever issue is impacting my vehicle. I would definitely recommend visiting Oversees Garage for any repair or maintenance needs. read more

My daughter's car was wobbling when applying the brakes (2008 Honda Pilot). Overseas Garage did a great job explaining the issue and giving me 2 options for the repair. They started the job but found a part was missing from the order. They let me know promptly that they could not finish in 1 day and asked if I wanted them to complete half the job and for me to come back or have them keep the car overnight. I decided to have them keep it if the work could be finished by 10 in the morning the next day. The car was ready when they said and my daughter is very pleased with the work and the comfort that the car stops much smoother. Thank You. read more

After another shop completely missed a faulty strut, Overseas Garage diagnosed and fixed the problem in one day. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Amazing service! I was due for a timing belt replacement and Cassie and the gang did great work. I thought it was really cool that Cassie showed me the wear and tear on a few small parts that needed replacing as well. Timely service, great value, and they even gave me some Girl Scout cookies as a thank you for visiting . Really great crew that make me feel welcome and don't rush to get rid of me when I'm asking too many questions . read more

Took my car in last week for an oil change, radiator work, and A/C repair. Decided to take a chance here because I live less than half a mile away and all the reviews looked great. Got quotes for everything and it felt extremely fair, especially since the owner Cassie was explaining every detail about what needed to be done and the price of each thing. I gave the go ahead and it was finished the first thing the next morning. Everything on my car works great now, and they even fixed an annoying rattle (that turned out to be on my exhaust) that I've had for years and could never figure out, by simply putting a clip on it. Didn't even have to ask them. I think it's a great sign that they've been in business and presumably very busy since the 70's. Definitely will be back. read more

I've been coming here for years because they do great work! They are a trustworthy shop that always stands by their work at an affordable price. I really like how the owner, Cassie, takes the time to thoroughly explain everything and shows me the issues/leaks/etc. I've tried many other auto shops in Long Beach, and Overseas is the best. read more

This is a great auto shop! I have been taking my cars here since I moved to Long Beach. Cassie is fantastic - she and her team check everything thoroughly and I have complete confidence that my car is ready to drive after a service there. I recommend them 100%. It's an honest and reliable business. read more

Would not even respond with a quote on my timing belt replacement request. They may do good work, but didn't work for me.

This is the worst mechanic I've gone to in years! Incompetent! They repaired my car wrong, and I have had nothing but issues with it since. Took it back for them to fix what they botched, they keep it for 4 days, and tell me "they" didn't have a problem with it while it was with them. They did NOTHING! They were too clueless to find out the issue! I drove it home, and it was just as messed up as when I took it in! The girl working the front desk has a nasty attitude, too. I'd rather hire a monkey with a wrench to work on my car than this joke of a shop! read more

Wow! Incredible! Cassie is a wonder. I have an 18 year old Acura whose window wouldn't open or close. No one had the part to repair it. Cassie spent time sourcing Manufacture (Honda), Dealerships (Acura), salvage yards, etc. etc. And Yes, she found the switch. The job was done quickly and efficiently. This is a great garage where servvice and care is AWESOME!!!! eunice read more

My wife and I have have gotten our cars serviced here several times, and have always had a great experience with fair prices and no surprises. I used to always go to big dealer shops just because I figured they'd be more efficient, but I've changed my mind after going to Overseas Garage and experiencing such quick and quality service. I'll be taking my car here for the foreseeable future. read more

100% recommend! Brought my Mazda in for a little work on my AC and they troubleshooted the problem and got it fixed super quick! Cassie and the rest of the team are so professional and kind! If you need a mechanic that you can trust this is for sure the place to check out! Will be back for all my car needs! read more

I didn't even need to call this business for them to have a positive influence on my life. A mechanic of theirs (Cody) happened to see me having battery trouble in my neighborhood and went out of his way to give me a jump out of the kindness of his heart! Good people work here and I will recommend to all. read more

Needed a tune-up for my old 4-Runner ahead of a long roadtrip. Super helpful and got everything fixed and dialed in. Cassandra checked in to keep me up to speed with everything my car needed and what what to expect on completion. Road trip was a breeze and the car made it to Colorado and back with ease. read more
