The alignment was slightly off at first, but they told me to bring it back and got it dialed in perfectly the following day. They stand behind their work and even told me to come back if anything needed to be re-torqued after the suspension settled. The results came out great. The stance looks much better with the factory rake reduced, and the ride quality still feels smooth and OEM-like. No noises, vibrations, or issues afterward. The vehicle drives straight and handles great. Professional service, quality work, and solid communication throughout the process. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a clean leveling spacer install done right.

They replaced both suspension control arms and clearly broke down the costs for me upfront with no surprises, no pressure, just honest work. The team was professional, communicative, and efficient. You can tell they know what they're doing and actually care about getting you back on the road safely. Pricing felt fair for the work done, especially for something as important as suspension. I'd definitely come back and recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable shop in the area.

We buy our own synthetic oil for oil changes and only some mechanics are willing to accept our own purchased oil with a reasonable charge for the oil change labor. Pep Boys wanted to charge us over double for the same service! While they performed the oil change, they found a few other issues with our over 20 year old car and provided us with (what we perceive as) fair quotes for the job. Calling to make an appointment seems pretty straightforward and I like that they text with updates. The actual shop is a bit hard to find since it is in a squishy lot with a bunch of other auto repair stores. I really love the overall location because it is smack dab in Old Town Torrance and it is lovely to be able to drop off the car and go get some grub in the area!

I called her back and made an appointment. I really appreciate their complimentary drop off and pick up service. The work was completed in a timely manner and the ride is definitely much smoother now. I highly recommend this place for all your car repair needs.

It's rare to find a place that hits all three: great people, quick turnaround, and great prices. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to and recommending to others.

When I returned to the shop, I was advised to get an engine wash rather than having the issue properly addressed. A second licensed repair facility later identified that a vacuum/breather hose in the same repair area was not properly connected, along with other concerns that could not be safely corrected due to an overtightened bolt. I attempted to resolve the issue directly, but was not able to reach a resolution and ultimately had to escalate the matter. Based on my experience, I would strongly recommend getting a second opinion before proceeding with repairs here.

To be safe, I sent the exact same photos to a few other body shops, and their estimates came back much lower. One shop estimated around $1,800 for repair and repaint based on the same pictures. That's a huge difference and made the first quote feel very inflated. I strongly recommend getting multiple estimates before committing to repairs here. Transparency and fair pricing matter, and customers deserve reasonable quotes.
