Jim should get 10 stars. We've been going to him for over 7 years. He's always at the shop. He's very involved and friendly. He's honest and his staff does excellent work. You don't have to worry about getting ripped off or the quality of the work. I caught my previous auto repair guy just driving my car around like a rent a car. Also found out he was using after market parts but charged for original parts. Not Jim. He's honest and will give you options. One of the nicest people you'll ever meet. read more

Rayes Auto Service - Keeps my baby running smooth. - Auto Repair Near Me - Lakewood, California

My 2005 300 was shaking and rattling like an old washing machine and making a noise like a tractor when I barely made it to the shop. The first diagnosis was that I needed a new engine that engine, but then I told him to check it. And, after a couple weeks, they called me and they said my car was ready. They had replaced the water pump and the timing change. The car is now running wonderfully and the price was very reasonable. It was probably half of what an auto dealer would charge. I highly recommend them for the simplest or the most complicated repairs. They are great guys. read more

We got referred here by another mechanic to have some work done on our Cadillac that was having some oil leaks. The price was very fair and the workers were really friendly. It took about a week from drop off to pick up and that's with them ordering and waiting for a part. We would recommend them. Jim just recommended for us to clean our engine at the end of it all and we were very pleased with the service done. read more

I love this place. They used to be 2 minutes from my house and now they're at this new location but I'm more than happy to drive and have my car checked by them. Excellent service, always very straightforward and honest, they're quick and always try to squeeze me in even when I don't have an appointment. They're awesome. read more

I took my Chevy Malibu 2011 here about 1 year and a half ago to fix my ac. I paid $500 and went for more than once a month to say it didn't work. They blamed it on the exhaust , thermaostat and etc. (Which has nothing to do with AC. They said they would only view it when I fix those things. Once I did, they said it was my ac compressor was leaking and I needed a new one and had to pay out of pocket again bc the warrenty was out even though my ac never worked since they "fixed it" AND TOOK IT CONSTANTLY. When I asked for a refund they said no and were offended. THEY SCAM PPL, NOT HONEST, SEEM NICE TO TRICK YOU INTO PAYING read more

Jim is a master when it comes to European autos and diagnose electronic and software issues on cars. I highly recommend this man!

Honesty, consistency. Jim (owner) is a very helpful kind-hearted individual that does not capitalize on your shortcomings. He views the problem, specifically, and solves that for you. He is full of great advice on how to go about handling the problems that may arise with your car. Things you probably do not know about him. He was a Master Tech for Shelly BMW. He is one of the only Mechanics that has built a BMW X5 from scratch (with just the shell) His credentials are verifiable and is not only a great owner, but a master in his own field. He has studied in Switzerland. He is very intelligent, generous, and full of wisdom. HE IS HONEST (A real honest shop owner) One of the only shops left where you can deal with the owner, and not get a run around. And the owner knows his stuff!!! If you have a Mercedes or a BMW. His experience in these type of vehicles old and new are definitely superior to most shops in the area. He will find your problem, he will fix it the right way. I have had experience bringing cars to his shop for over 1 year. And I feel more confident about my friends, families cars more today than ever before.. This is my way of saying thank you Jim for saving me a lot of money on my last car (2003 Mercedes E320) read more

If I could rate this place all the stars in the world, I REALLY WOULD!!! Lemme just telll youuuu that my experiences with other mechanics have been so bad and have left me a little traumatized, BUT THIS PLACE---OH. MY. GOD. AMAZINNNNG!! I loved everything about this place and the people! When I called, they were so patient with me. When I arrived, they kindly approached me and made me feel so at ease. I knew from right then and there that my car was in good hands and that I made a good decision picking this place. I was super stressed out about my car being all wonky but coming out of there and driving my car made me feel like it was brand new! FRIGGIN AMAZING! I really can't stress how unbelievably amazing this place is. I will definitely be coming back and I will for sure recommend this place to everyone I know looking to get their car fixed. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! read more

I contacted the owner Jim about the issue I was having with my car. I was referred to him and heard good things. As soon as he said I could take my car to his shop I was happy. I had to wait awhile for my car because he was two guys short but Jim said he would work on my car himself. It turned out that the issue I thought I had was just a minor one. Jim was very attentive. Glad I was sent here. read more

Very honest and compassionate business! The owner of the place is very sweet and accommodating. I came in for a broken passenger side view mirror and the owner went to take a look at it while I waited in the waiting room. When he came back he already fixed the electronic gear that helps control the motor of my mirrors. He said he is not going to charge any money for the work he's done and I was shocked to hear that he already fixed the biggest part and I just only had to pay for the mirror itself. The mirror was only $45 and that was it. Very VERY honest people; they will not try to overcharge you and ask for very little, if even at all. This place is located just behind Jim's Burgers. I am so glad I went here first before going to another mechanic. Thank you so so much!! Will definitely be coming back for anything else. read more

Always reliable and courteous. Very honest estimates. You are never charged or asked for any additional services that are not required. Very fair prices as well read more

Service was affordable and quick. I had a brake fluid flush done and, 2 hours later, it was done.

Came in here for coolant flush / spark plugs and alignment. They didn't do alignment however. First time coming here so I was a little skeptical but it was recommended by a friend so I gave it a shot. My experience was great, I came by to get a quote first and it was a very reasonable price so I decided to bring it in. Took longer than expected but it was a job well done and got it back by the days end. Only took longer cause they were extremely busy. Good business is hard to come by and I'm glad I found my new mechanic shop. read more

I came here as a referral after getting two prior estimates. Not only did they quote me a cheaper price, they are willing to give me a deal on a future vehicle purchase. Sometimes it really pays to be patient and wait on the Lord. Any place that offers and prepares me hot coffee in the morning is A+ in my book. read more

The owner is a good guy, the staff is helpful and they do good work. Give them a shot and you'll become regulars no doubt.

Best place to get your car fix at. Customer service is fantastic. Jimmy is the best mechanic in the game

I've known this shop for 8 years. I don't take my car anywhere unless I really know the people. I can't work on my car now due to a medical condition. I came across this place by chance and they worked on my Volvo. Today I had an unexpected emergency and bring on oxygen made matters worse. I pulled in and he said it would have to be Sat. morning. I couldn't do that. he saw my condition and interrupted his shop to help me. He wouldn't even accept some payment. This man is compassionate, honest and humble. Bring him your car, have your friends and family patronize his shop as well. It'll change the way you think about automotive repair shops. read more

Got my car serviced here and all I can say is that I'm really impressed and thankful for the work that Jim did l am a little picky on who I allow to work on my Mercedes since not every mechanic knows how to diagnose these cars correctly and I have been burned before. But since getting the car back It runs smooth made me fall in love with it all over again! I won't take it to anyone else but him for service. Very punctual and honest mechanic. Truly appreciated! read more
