This is long overdue. I came here from a recommendation of friend's mother. I have a 2011 Nissan Rogue with over 180k miles on it. I know at some point it'll run its course but the price of new cars is too much. So I'll have to keep fixing my car. In February 2023 I heard this throttle or cranking when I brake. Took to a repair shop and guy can figure out what's wrong. One shop even told me it could be the transmission. I called Victory and spoke with Greg (owner) made an appointment to drive the car to Van Nuys. He drove my car as I waited at his office and when he came he said I need new brakes. He went to his computer and then he gave the estimate and I agreed for him to do the job. December 2024 I hear a grinding sound on the right side of my car. I called Greg and I drove to his shop. He drove my car and came back and said it's the wheel bearing. He gave me an estimate and I had him do the job. Feb 6 2026 my car will not start after a few tries of trying to crank it, my husband said it wasn't a battery issue. I called Greg and he said to have the car towed to his shop and it'll take about 2-3 hours to see what's wrong with it (he works on a lot cars on a daily basis). I called AAA and had my car towed to Victory. I called Greg around 3 pm and he said there's nothing wrong with my car he drove it around and every time he stops the car and the car starts again. We drove to pick up the car and this is simply astonishing Greg did not let me pay for any diagnostic to check my car. It's rare any business gives free service these days. Greg is simply reliable and honest mechanic/ auto shop I've been to even driving from SCV to make sure that my car is take care of!! read more

Excellent service. Honest pricing. Fantastic work. My brakes got spongey after hitting a bump. They got me sorted properly.

I've taken my 06 infinity 4 times to Greg and he always finds my parts and is usually finished same day. Fair prices and excellent speedy work. He's replaced radiator, fixed broken axle. Etc.. highly recommend. read more

Highly recommend this mechanic! Victor provided excellent service when my car engine was stuttering and needed new spark plugs. Victor gave me a fair estimate on the cost of the service and parts. He fixed my car so quickly! Very satisfied the price! read more

My husband and I have taken our cars to Victory auto service for over 30 years. They are hands-down the best auto repair business around. We trust them implicitly; their accurate assessments and efficient repairs have kept our cars running great for years. They are skilled, friendly and honest, providing the best value possible for services and parts. We wouldn't trust our cars to anyone else! read more

I've been with Greg since 2005. He helped my numerous times. I would trust him to operate on my heart.

I've been going to Keyes Hyundai on Van Nuys for repairs for years and was always met with indifference and high prices. But I've been here twice now -- first for a battery thing and then for a wheel thing -- and these guys are great at getting to the root of the problem, fixing it promptly, all without gouging me out for hundreds or thousands of dollars. Highly recommend. read more

Greg is the best!!! If you're looking for an honest mechanic look no further. This shop treats their clients like family. I feel so comfortable knowing my bmw is in trustworthy hands. SIDE NOTE: Saved an arm and a leg compared the dealership price! read more

The main guy is awesome, gave me alternatives and helped me the best ways possible, went above and beyond what I was expecting from countless other mechanics, I am so grateful for people like him, and his shop, would recommend to anyone, cool dude. read more

The saga of my horrible car continues... After getting my tires changed my "check engine" light decides to go on. Firestone says that just a diagnostic of the problem costs $100, but because it happened so close to the time of the tire change (and thus looks shady), they will do it for $50. Honda dealership also said $100 just for diagnostic. I came here based on a family friend's recommendation. Without even talking about price, the mechanic took out a little machine and within 3 minutes diagnosed the problem. I left my car there overnight and got it back the next day all fixed. The price was very reasonable (especially since I was waived the diagnostic fee) and the car has been working just fine. I'll let you know if anything else goes wrong, but it looks like I may have found a new mechanic read more

I had an airbag light issue misdiagnosed by 10 different mechanics across the San Fernando Valley. Greg managed to correctly diagnose it within an hour and had it fixed along with my door actuator the very next day - all at a reasonable price. These guys are the real deal. read more

A mechanic you can trust that offers expertise and value. And isn't that what we're all looking for in a mechanic??? Ask for Greg, he'll take cafe of you! read more

Victory Auto Service Center, not only gave me a fair price and did quality work at the time my van needed repair. Greg went out of his way to get a special needed part, at a very reduced price. I have been there to service my vehicles in the past, and I will definitely go back again. I highly recommend this place for auto repair! Dennis A. read more

Had some issues with my charge system. The owner checked and cleaned the corrosion off my battery no charge. Took care of issue. No interest in nickel and diming, just a good honest neighborhood shop. read more

I had been concerned about driving my car because I could hear the knocking and clinking noises from my wheels. I had kept getting outrageous quotes from so many auto services, but when I called Victory Auto Service, Greg provided me with a very reasonable quote and took care of my car right away. In fact, he even fixed something that nobody else could ever figure out in the past, I didn't even tell him about because I just figured it wasn't fixable but when he test drove my car, he heard a sound coming from my rear brakes and he was able to fix it! My car is driving so smooth and noise free!! I will definitely go back again to Greg in the future for any mechanic needs. I highly recommend him, I am a single woman who felt very safe and knew he wasn't going to gouge the prices or make up anything else that didn't need to be fixed. read more

I must say, Greg treated me like a friend. I brought in my 1997 Jaguar with a an A/C problem. He stopped what he was doing and took a look right on the spot. After diagnosing, he was honest about my options in how long they would take and how much they would cost. He surprised the hell out of me when he was done waaaay earlier than estimated! And now my A/C is working great. Couldn't be happier! I thanked him very much, asking if he was the owner. He said "no, she is", while pointing to the cat. Great personality, great service, great experience. I'll be back for sure! THANK YOU GREG read more

After taking my car to two other places who didn't want to do a simple body work job using my warranty coverage. I found this place, great service and honest work. Greg was friendly, honest and easy to work with, he took my car in kept me informed and when the parts arrived had my car ready that day! it is hard to find a decent auto place that won't rip you off or sell you things you don't need, his prices were affordable. i had one place quote me over $300 for two rear brake pads and labor this place will do it for half that. i will definitely use them again for future jobs and I highly recommend them. Thank you! read more

Perfect customer service, great prices, and great explanations. Very quick with there work, my boyfriend brought in his car and I think we will keep coming here. It's just great, I don't know much about cars but I do know about good service. perfect read more

Victory Auto Service Center - Auto Repair Near Me - Van Nuys, California

Great service and great prices. No BS. Been coming here with multiple high end cars for years.

Felt like my mom was taken advantage of when she came home in the afternoon excited she had a "fixed" tire that was flat the next morning. Turns out the tire they sold us for $50 already had 3 patches on it and his bright idea was to put another patch. We just left And found a much better tire for $25 dollars less. Lankershim and Archwood. El Camino Used tires for $35 bucks. they also water test the tire in front of you. Victory Auto Service center was not worth the price or experience. read more

I've been coming to this mechanic for many years now. It's nice to go to a mechanic and feel like they're not cheating me or taking advantage of the fact that I'm a female that doesn't know much about the workings of a car. Thanks guys. read more

I took my car to Victory the other day cause the water pump went out in my car. I called them for an estimate and they said it would be finished the same day. the qutoe was resaonable and the work was completed before 3pm. They called twice to say I needed a new belt and a new cap. I was glad they called before just adding something on to the bill. I really did need the belt and cap, they showed me the parts when they were done. also that was nice they showed me the old parts to verify they did the work. some shops dont do that. I will be taking my car here again if needed. good prices, honest people, fast work and done right. read more

Love this place! Owner is amazing person and he does the best service in LA! Prices are reasonable but they do their job at high level! Quick and efficient! I 100% Recommend!! read more

I've been taking my cars to Vahe and Greg for about 10 years now and they never fail me. I found them after I priced a fix on a car in Pacoima, where the man said it would cost $600. Went to these guys and the same fix was about $100. I've been faithful since. Love them and trust them and their little garage kitty. read more

The guys at this shop are awesome. They went above and beyond to help get my car running smoothly after an engine scare. They were very honest with me and everything they told me made sense even though I don't know much about cars. Prices are very reasonable on top of it. Definitely would recommend them! read more

Greg has to be one of the sweetest mechanics I've ever met (trust me when I say I've had my fair share of bad experiences with mechanics). From the initial phone call I made to the moment I drove out of his driveway, Greg has been friendly, to the point, and HONEST. Basically, my engine was making a weird, whirring sound and would get worse any time I drove a little faster. Greg checked the car out and after a couple tests he said it was because of a defective belt on the water pump. He said it was a pretty quick fix and his quote for it was awesome. I left the car there and went to a cafe nearby. About 35 minutes later I got a call from him saying the car was ready. That was it. Problem fixed. My car hasn't made a sound since! Big thanks to Victory Auto, definitely recommend! read more

Rude armeanian men.. Or maybe it was because I was Hispanic because they were nice to other Armenian costumers

Took my car to the Victory shop second time going and may I say AMAZING SERVICE. Such nice people working there! Had to take my car for a buff on the drivers side door and was done so fast. Took it the second time for a service A, and they finished in just 2 hours! Will be coming back so great I found this place!! read more

No matter how much or how little you know about why your car is making that weird noise, bring it here. These guys will NEVER rip you off. Honest work, honest advice, fair prices. No upsell, no games, and if you are waiting for your repair, there is a shop cat to keep you company! Bring your car here, your Dad would be proud. read more

What can I say, they did an excellent job on my truck and who doesn't love paying less than their quoted price. I came in with my check engine light on clueless as to what the issue may be. Greg fixed my truck in no time. Dropped it off on my way to work and it was ready waiting for me when I got out. The only tricky thing is I was initially approached by the shop located in the front and they had given me other information about my truck issues. I would recommend driving passed those guys regardless of their waving you into their shop and go directly to the back and ask for Greg. I found a diamond in the rough. Thanks again guys. read more

Good and especially honest auto mechanic, which is tough to find now a days. Punctual and does not waste your time with nonsense. I am satisfied with his services. Will definitely bring my car to him again. Keep up the good job! read more

I use to take my car for oil change and all other issues to the dealership because it was a lease but one day I desided to stop by and ask the oil change price and brake change price when I heard after that it is already several years all my car service needs I take my car to them and I save the receipts for dealer. Now all my family is hooked with this service shop. read more

Hello I took my 2001 Land Rover to this shop because it started overheating. The owner Greg told me he could do the work so I believed him. He told me it was going to cost a couple of thousand dollars to fix because it needed new head gaskets. He then said that he needed money upfront to start the work so I gave him $500 dollars. Two weeks later he said the car was ready and that I can pick it up so then he said that the fan was not coming on and that it would have to be replaced. Then he said that the water pump needed to be replaced also. After replacing all that it still was getting hot so then he said that the block must be cracked. That's when I found out that he never checked the block when he pulled the heads off and put new gaskets on. That's rule # 1 when you do a head gasket job on any car. I then called a buddy that has a lot of knowledge about these cars and he advised me to take it out of the shop and take it somewhere else after I told him that Greg wanted to put a sleeve in the motor or charge me $6000 to fix it. What a rip off this guy is and he has no clue what he is doing. We also realized that he broke a bracket that holds the tension pulley along with another item and he had no intentions on telling us that. He also never gave me a work order when he took the car in to do the work. I have now taken the land rover to another shop that is charging me much less for another motor. This guy is a complete rip off and I really don't think his mechanics are ASE certified. read more
