Huge thanks to Mike and his guys!!!!! Im not even from the area and my 1988 Honda civic that is highly modified and F.A.F. blew the No2 line on the freeway as I smoked a Tesla. Basically I had no idea where the heck I was as Im from the I.E. and totally lost, no idea how to get my car or myself home, this car is not something you just leave i. A strange place either. So anyway, AAA sends this kid in a flatbed tow truck, my car is way to low to be just towed. Turns out the guy dates my older sister. Shes a huge cougar and fifty rich from her cheating ex-husband shenanigans so shes made of money, anyway this tow truck kid says hey man, "i know this guy Mike, he's a solid dude and can probably fix this problem. So I agree he takes me there. We get there at like 4:45 pm and the guy is closing up right. I explained to him. How screwed I am and how far I have to go. This friggin guy goes out of his way to help me out. You want to talk about value and customer service the guy was almost about to have his sister take me home but I made my side piece come get me because she was working at the DMV close by so she had to bust my balls but she eventually came and got me. The dude Mike swore my car would be safe. You see not just any old knobhead can operate this particular machine. Its too much for those that "Think" they can drive. Very specialized parts and repairs are not easy. So I get home, the Dude Mike calls me says your totally outta luck budd. Im like major bummer dude. But he says yeah man, I can make this happen for you. But its probably going to take a week and cost you about tree fiddy. Plus parts. Im like bruh ya gotta make it happen as I absolutely have to get to the desert to race this fool with his Honda civic he thinks is so ultimate. My car smokes all. Rolls them up and smokes them. Anyway long story even longer, this dude Mike, calls me up and tells me he found a tear in my half shaft and since my car is sitting there do I want him to deal with it. Gives me a way fair estimate and im like let's party. So my line finally came from Jegs and Mike calls me up and says come and get it. Man I am so grateful to this dude. I made it to the desert and ofcourse that civic was nothing. Not even a challenge. I almost let him catch up. It was pitiful. But yeah this dude Mike is a solid bro. He had some nice cars there. An AMX and a Porsche I wish I could have borrowed. Highly recommended. I may bring my Nissan nobody can look at because nobody knows the technology anymore. Super grateful to Mike and his team of awesome Wrenches. Grease monkeys are a dime a dozen, but a true Mechanic is so rare these days. Some guys have it and some should just sell their tools and take up stripping.... Im telling all my friends to go to Technology Auto. They are honest. Fair and way cool dudes man. He didn't try to dick me around. I think he was even scared to test drive my car. Its a wild one. Not for the faint of heart. Its name is the "Boobie Bouncer Bucket" IE. Try and die... #destroyalltires. #Blacklinesmatter read more

You leave knowing your vehicle was handled by experienced professionals who care about doing the job right. Shops don't stay in business for years without earning a solid reputation, and this team has clearly built theirs on integrity, skill, and reliability. If you want a place you can depend on and feel confident recommending to others, this shop is it. read more

Went there for an oil change and tune up for my 2010 Ford Explorer. Service techs were great. Friendly. The service was done in a timely manner they even checked and corrected my tire pressures. Who does that nowadays. The price was right. I highly recommend bringing your vehicle here for service or repairs. read more

The mechanics here are very good and the service advisor (Joe) is wonderful to work with. It's too bad that the owner (Mike) is a scam artist who will take advantage of an old lady. I've always had my vehicle fully serviced at the dealership and it was all up to date. I just moved into the area and my family recommended I call this shop when my engine light came on. I had a great conversation with Joe and he immediately made me feel like I could trust him. I told him my whole story and he understood what I wanted. Unfortunately Once my vehicle arrived it was Mike that contacted me instead. He tried to sell me on a long list of services my vehicle didn't need. Even lied to me and said my brand new air filter was super dirty and had to be replaced. At this point I knew I couldn't trust Mike but I wanted my vehicle fixed and believed Joe when he said the mechanics are very good. So I approved 1 repair, a tune-up, to correct my engine light problem. When I arrived I found out that Mike also did an oil change without my approval and lied to me again about that as well. He tried to deflect and tell me about his health problems and when I questioned him he called the mechanic over and tried to put the blame on him. I feel bad for the mechanics that have to work for this disgusting man. Not only will my family never return but I will also be reporting him to the Bureau of Automotive Repair because charging you for work that you didn't approve is illegal. read more

Technology Automotive - My "super dirty" air filter that lying Mike said needed to be replaced. - Auto Repair Near Me - Montebello, California

The mechanics here are absolute gems, the kind of folks who actually fix things and don't treat you like you're auditioning for a reboot of "Car Problems: The Musical." Then there's the owner, who seems to run the place with the business philosophy of "What if we charged for work we didn't do... just to see if anyone notices?" He'll confidently recommend services you had done literally yesterday, as if your car has the lifespan of a houseplant. Meanwhile, the staff is in the background doing their best to keep the place from turning into a full‑blown comedy sketch. If you visit, enjoy the good mechanics, but bring a magnifying glass, a recent receipt from another shop, and maybe a lie detector for the head honcho. read more

All my family brings their cars here. Honest and quick service. Team is extremely knowledgeable and thorough.

A co worker recommended this place to me and was satisfied so I took his word, my car busted a coolant hose and had it towed here and ended up paying 622.39 for coolant, two hoses, a thermostat and a bleeder valve, but I really needed my car up and running for work These are very inexpensive parts for half a grand, for that price I should have gotten a radiator and all hoses replaced, won't be coming back here. read more

See all

Horrible service couldn't even come look at the vehicle to see what's wrong with the AC. Couldn't even give me a call. I don't recommend anyone coming and waste their time with these people. read more

This is a good shop. Have always been quick and helpful. Have fixed my jalopies and gave me a break when the repair fell out of warranty.

The staff was very and knowledgeable on the repairs I had done to my car. I would highly recommend this company for car repairs and service read more

Have been taking my car and family cars here for several years, I like that they are honest and take the time to explain everything. They also work quickly and almost always have my car ready on the same day. Definitely recommend! read more

My family Leo & Richard Rodriguez has been bringing all our cars to Mike's shop for as long as i can remember they are always available dependable, honest and fast turn around on getting work done, we never take our cars anywhere and recommend them to our friends and fam read more

Too bad I can't give a minus review as definitely would. I stopped in and asked to get some work done on my 1958 Ford, I was toldd Joe the mechanic was out to lunch and to call in an hour. Icalled and talked to Joe and he assured me they could do the repair required. He said he had to square up his schedule and would call and let me know when to bring the car in. I waited 24 hrs, no call, so I called again and was told by Joe he was still working on the schedule but would call later that day. That was two weeks ago and I have not heard from him, his scheddukle must be a big mess. If he didn't want to do the job why couldn't he just say so. I would not trust them to touch my car now. I gotit fixed elsewhere. I see a review where someone else got this same treatment so I wouldn't recommend using this facility, I don't think they are too trustworthy. read more

great customer service and always a happy customer. Joe is very helpful and informative. I would recommend my friends and family to this place! i also enjoyed the snacks that were provided - the coffee bar was gourmet and pleasant. i poured a nice cup of coffee and smiled as i watched the magic in motion! i love TECHNOLOGY AUTOMOTIVE! read more

Disappointed in this place, I've been coming to this place for a a couple years. I thought I had finally found a place that wouldn't screw a woman over. I needed my oil change turns out this place never changed my oil's filter at all. Even through they charged me for a brand new one. Beware make sure you're watching them when they change your oil that they're actually doing their job and not scamming you! Who knows how many other people they're doing this to. Would not recommend read more

Brought my 2015 Ford Focus ST to them due to a constant grinding noise happening after accelerating from a stop. I usually work on my car myself but after struggling to find the cause, I brought it into the shop for a second opinion. They were able to get the problem fixed with no issues and answered all my questions. Thank you to the techs at the shop and also shout out to Mike and Joe for keeping me updated on the car. Definitely going to bring my cars here moving forward if I ever have any mechanical issues! read more

Great work they found the problem and fixed it. Strongly recommend their shop for any automotive repair. Thanks

This is the only place I take my car! They have great service and Joe is so helpful. He really took the time to explain to me (in detail) what my problem was and what they needed to do to fix it. In fact he gave me options according to what I can afford. For example: This is what needs to get done, but if you cant afford it right now, here is your priority list. Which I appreciate so much!! I have never had a bad experience here and would recommend this to anyone I know. Thanks for great customer service Joe! read more

Great service!! Everyone there is very nice !!! You leave there knowing they did a great job!!

This place is the only shop I trust, Mike is Amazing and so is the rest of the staff, the mechanics that work here are the most professional and experienced. I had a lot of bad experiences at the dealership service departments so I only use this shop now they have lots of knowledge about all makes and models. They only change or repair what you need, for a great price. Best shop in LA area if your looking for professional repairs read more

I had many encounters from Joe and he would provide the worst customer service and not just from me but from many other customers there as I was told. He would intentionally not answer phone calls from his caller ID. He would not even return your phone calls after he said he would call you back. He would not give any price breaks either no matter how long you've been with them. If I could give him zero stars, I would. You will find better service elsewhere. read more

I am optimistic about mechanics, because I have had numerous problems with them lying. I do a bit of mechanic work on my own car,, but I had a check engine light come on my car. I looked up mechanics on Yelp and saw that this one had 5 stars, so I called and spoke to Jans and made an appointment. Jans knew exactly what was wrong, but said just to be sure they would run a Diagnostic check. I thought I would get a call saying other thing was wrong, but Jans said it was my 02 sensor. Make a long story short. He fixed the problem after multiple times taking it back, without charge. I also had Jans do my rear brakes. I am so grateful to have finally found a great mechanic shop, that I can take the rest of my vehicles. I Am RECOMMENDING THIS PLACE TO ALL MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS. Now I know why this mechanic shop has 5 stars. I would give it another, but it can only take 5 stars read more

You can't find a mechanic better than this place. Meeting mike was the best thing that happen to me in terms of finding someone who works on cars. Not only did he fix my car, he also fixed the problems that caused the problem. Every mechanic that I took the car too prior always gave me reason on why I would need to come back, not this place. He solved everything. Soo happy here and I'm sure you will be too. The mechanic Gods are here in Technology Automotive. Ps. If you come back it's because your bringing him another car to fix. Thanks Mike, your awesome! read more

I had a rebuilt engine installed by mikes mechanics. Keep in mind they removed engine block and had a machine shop perform the rebuild. Got it back engine light came on and truck was shaking. Took truck back and Mike was in denial that something was wrong with engine. After a day he admitted the machine shop did something wrong. More down time and didn't show urgency to give my truck back too me. Long story short many return trips to his shop for various issues with engine and tried various times to ask for more money to fix engine problems. He complained about his labor loss and once said I won't pay overtime just to get your truck fixed. The duration of going back and forth was almost 2 years. Some how it smoothed out for awhile and warranty expired. I asked him to start warranty after the 2 years since it never really worked 100 percent. He said warranty starts the day I paid and engine was installed regardless of all the down time. 3rd year engine light came on with excessive shaking and was diagnosed by another shop as a bad engine. Beware of this shop and it's practices. This is not a made up story. I am a business owner and looking back this should have been taken up in court to ask judge to have him pull motor out and install a crate engine from chevy for his wrong doings. read more

Really nice guy that helped me out today! Came in for an oil change and to change my filters. Usually I find oil change places intimidating and the people are always trying to convince me my car needs other parts and blah blah but these people were really nice. Took about an hour for all of that and then had a nice conversation with the owner. Would totally recommend this place! Ps. Sorry I can't think of his name read more

AAA towed me to this facility after my car stalled. The tow truck guy said these mechanics are knowledgeable and fairly priced, plus they're in the final stages of getting AAA approval. I know that you can't completely trust the tow truck driver but I was far from my regular mechanic so I agreed to go here. After a thorough diagnosis, they determined that my car's problem was still under warranty and should be fixed at a dealership. I appreciate that they did not charge me for the diagnosis. I won't know if they're actually good mechanics until I go back for other services but honesty is a good start! read more

Mike is a really cool guy and very honest, the service is excellent! I highly recommend them for all your automotive needs!!! A job well done!!!! read more

Such a breath of fresh air to find an honest, genuine mechanic. They really know what they are doing and am and will recommend them to all my friends and family. Thank you read more

Mike and his staff always do great work. I originally went to Mike out of sheer necessity. On my way home in 2009, my car was stalling from LA all the way to Montebello. By the time I got to Montebello, I turned into the first car garage I could and it happened to be Technology Automotive. I left the car with Mike and he was able to find the issue with my distributor cap and spark plugs. The price was reasonable considering I was willing to pay anything to fix the problem. The best part is ... he showed me the parts he replaced. I've been to other mechanics before, however none have ever showed me the parts they replaced! Mike was the first and I've been going there since. read more

This review is long over due because I've been coming to Tech. Automotive since Mike open this location. And before at that too. He is honest and fair. Mike has been my mechanic since the late 1980's. He is a very honest and is highly experienced professional automotive engineer. He has all the latest computer automotive apps. And does not charge the high dealer service price. I repeat He is honest and fair. He stands behind his word. Call to make a appointment cause he is always busy but never let you down. He is by far the best automotive repair, rebuilt, and custom engineer expert in Los Angeles county. He has extensive knowledge in building race engines too. read more

The catalytic converter was stolen from my Honda Odyssey. I brought it in and they took care of replacing it and adding some stainless steel rod to deter another theft. Mike, the main guy is super knowledgeable and the technicians were friendly and helpful and hard working. This is a go to kind of shop for sure read more

We have been taking our cars to mike and his crew for 20 years! He not only knowledgeable but very good at communicating the details of work . The turn around is always timely. He is a kind man and his entire team are professional and straightforward. I have recommended many and all have been pleased. A great resource to have in our community. read more

Love Mike the owner he is honest and won't charge an arm and a leg. I referred some of my friends and family members

Mike opened up his shop on a Sunday so I could pick up my Corolla. He charged me reasonably for a brand new gas tank. I'm grateful because he got the job done so quickly. Like the other reviewer, I found him when my 21st century insurance roadside operator googled automotive shops in area. Technology sure beats the last automotive place i went to in Bellflower, that's for sure. read more

Been going to Mike for years. As the other reviewers mention he is honest and will explain to you exactly what needs to be done and gives fair estimates. If trust is an issue for you, can't be let down coming here. read more

I came here a couple of months ago for an oil change and tire rotation. I have to say Mr. Mike was very courteous with fair prices!! I can tell you he was very honest upfront. He needed to order my oil filter because they didnt have it in stock and only charged me 9.00 for it compare to other places where they charge 11.00. My total was 41. and some change and he said, "let's just make it 40.00 flat." I mean how kool is that !! I am definitely coming back!!!! I have tried to recommend this place to family members and friends as well. read more

I came here recently to do an oil change, to get my car ready for Uber driving. The guys were thorough and were very informed on what needed to be replaced (oil filter, windshield wipers, air filter, etc). I came back today because I was hearing my brakes screech (I had gotten my brakes replaced about 2 months ago). The mechanics were quick to inform me what was happening and were able to fix the problem. Mike, the owner, is fair with his prices and has a great attitude and repertoire with his workers and customers. This is definitely a place I plan on coming back to. read more

I came here with my Acura Rsx type s to get a clutch replacement. The job was very well done and the mechanics and Mike were very knowledgeable and honest with the work. Car runs like a champ and the price was affordable. I will definitely come here again. Thanks Mike A++ read more

ASK FOR MIKE!! GREAT HONEST GUY..Very informative and does not nickel and dime you. Most of his employees have worked there over 15 years.

This is the best auto motive shop in the greater LA area, and I mean that. The owner, Mike, has been in business forever and is so knowledgeable on any car you could think of. I would take my car, boat, rv only there! His pricing is fair, and he makes sure its done right. Do yourself a favor and go there first and save a lot of headache. read more
