Genesis Automotive Service

Honest and trustworthy mechanics are hard to come by and I believe Genesis Automotive Services includes both.
Carl, the head mechanic provided a timely and professional service.
I recommend this place.

Took my car in. Carl diagnosed the issue with the car rite away gave me the estimate to replace a water pump in my 2008 scion. Let me know rite away other places will be more. They were. Picked up my car and payed a little under the estimate. Pleasantly surprised, honesty is hard to come by in this field but that’s what you get here. Highly recommend this place. Any future problems I know where to bring my car.

Most important thing. Good Service and Trustworthy
I like their service and they seem trustworthy. Done and Done.
It’s already a headache going to get your car fixed for something. But, they take the time to explain what you need and why. Carl usually helps me.
I would recommend calling ahead first, they do get busy.

Yes I did say on my last post post that they are now our family mechanic, since we «killed» our last one, lol. You would definitely at least go to Carl and Glenn, they are the best, always have room for your vehicle, honest, friendly, trustworthy, professionals and will get your ride going again. Affordable charges and don’t be afraid to ask for discount, sometimes they will if you pay in cash!

Carl is one of the most trust worthy mechanics in the area and has a vast knowledge of Lexus is very apparent. I would recommend Genesis Automotive to anyone looking for trustworthy mechanic. The best part is Carl tells you like it is and even helps you with things that aren’t part of the description. For example, my new headlights I installed were lower than usual and Carl spent time to adjust them and make sure that I was safe on my trip to Vegas. Finally, who can beat the oil change prices for $ 25 for synthetic blend on my Lexus ES330, can’t get it below 60 anywhere else. Best mechanic out there!

Was recommended by a friend to check out Genesis Automotive when we got an outrageous quote from the dealership for a water pump replacement. Not only did they replace the water pump but they replaced some belts and seals that the dealership hadn’t even mentioned. It was all done for about half of what the dealer quoted. Thank you Carl and Glenn! I found my forever mechanics ;-)

I took my 2010 Jetta to Genesis. Trusting the reviews from others on Unilocal.Well, I’m so glad I did! Glenn and Carl were able to diagnose the electrical issue with my car and fix it promptly. You can certainly trust these gentlemen! They are honest and reasonable! Thank you! My car is running great.

Wonderful! Bought a Lexus on Craigslist and got scammed with all the repairs it needed. Took it to another mechanic first and they wanted to fix every tiny detail and every big detail for a big price.
So went on Unilocal and found Genesis.
Genesis is the best. Very well trained and professional, polite, much more reasonable prices! I will only be taking my Lexus there from now on. Gets so much better gas mileage too. THANKS, Genesis

I took my Chevrolet Tahoe 2005 in for a Fuel Pump replacement and Carl was so reasonable about his labor rates. He was upfront and honest about what other repairs and issues my Truck had. I’m a female and it’s really hard to find a repair shop who won’t take advantage. I’m financial strapped for cash and when Carl told me what repairs are needed and what could wait, I felt as though he really understood the position I am in. I would love to fix it all and have my truck running perfect, but I can only afford to do 1 repair at a time. He was able to explain and put me at ease. I love this place and will be coming back for the other repairs needed in the next few weeks.

If you have a Toyota and want to deviate from having to pay the crazy fees that the dealer charges for simple repairs, look no further. My 07 Camry Hybrid had a leaking oil pan and Toyota said it will cost $ 495 to fix it. It wasn’t that big of a leak, more like a seep but I didn’t want to keep driving the car and let that issue worsen. So instead of bringing it back to Toyota, I shopped around the neighborhood. Found a guy who would do it for $ 300 in Route 66 then another guy from Arrow Hwy who estimated $ 250. I then found Genesis here on Unilocal and spoke to Carl on the phone. He quoted me $ 200 tops which includes the new oil. Aside from the good price quote I immediate had the confidence of bringing my Camry here because he knew about the FIPG (fix in place gasket) that Toyota uses instead of an actual gasket. I brought my car in that same day and he was able to write me up fairly quickly. Had a chance to speak to him briefly where he said him and his buddy used to work for Toyota. That’s awesome really coz at least these guys know Toyotas to the T. He offered to give me a ride home but I turned it down and said I just live around the area and it’s a good reason to go for a walk. After 3 hours, he called me back and said it’s all done. So I walked back in and picked up my car. He did make sure to clean up the area surrounding the leak. Overall a great experience at this shop. I am now recommending this place to all my friends especially those who own a Lexus or a Toyota. It’s hard to find a very reliable car repair shop. But I think I just stumbled upon one, thanks to Unilocal.This place is highly recommended.

These dudes are reasonable on there price and are pretty good at what they do… they have worked on a few of my cars as well as on some of my quads… I have recommended others and they to are satisfied. …

Amazing services!!! I would recommend 100%. The repair, the price and the integrity are all there within Genesis Automotive Covina!!! Thank you, Glenn & Carl! What a blessing! We also thank our incredible friends Fred & Nola for referring us to Glenn. We’re very happy with our mechanics! Julie & Mark

I have a 2001 Volkswagen Jetta that I want to keep running until it dies. I love my car. I brought it to Genesis based on a referral from a family member because I don’t have a mechanic that I like. They were super helpful! The garage was clean, the technicians were friendly and talked to me like a person, not just a girl! They fixed my car up, they did not try to sell me a ton of extra stuff. I’ve gone back three times since then for various maintenance. They are consistent. I’m so relieved to find a place I can trust!

Carl and Glenn are the best mechanics around. I would trust anyone else with my vehicles. I would recommend them to anyone that needs work done

I was referred to the mechanic Carl and went and had an oil change done. I have to say, these guys are really good and know what they are doing. They rotated my tires and Carl found a two nails that had punctured my tires (but didn’t go all the way through). They checked multiple other areas too and were verify extensive. I was referred here from two different friends that touted their honesty and service, now that I have been there I have to say I agree!

I’ve never had a mechanic explain so much and really involve me in the diagnosis like Carl did I really appreciate feeling involved I feel like he did every thing he could to get the price down as well. Over all it’s a great experience and I’m happy to now have a great mechanic

Nice guys with tons of experience. Just got an oil change. These guys are quick! My new automotive spot for my vehicles.

I was referred to Carl and Glenn by my son. Totally worth the drive into Covina.
I needed major work done on my Toyota 4Runner @ almost 200k miles. These men went over and above what I expected from an automotive service. They repaired my 4Runner at a much lower cost than the dealership quoted me. They were courteous, personable and upfront. After working with them, I believe them to be honest and trustworthy. They explained what I was going to be facing once the motor was taken apart. I was especially pleased, knowing they would personally be working on my vehicle. My truck was fixed in a timely manner and runs perfect! I highly recommend Genesis Automotive Services for all your Auto needs.

My Toyota Camry Hybrid battery died and they were more affordable than the dealer. They were also honest and timely which is hard to come by these days. I’d recommend anyone to Genesis Automotive and I will defiantly be going back.

Everybody needs a mechanic like Carl or Glenn.
They are honest, easy to talk to, hard working and most of all — THEY ARE ASE CERTIFIED MASTER MECHANICS and they are the ONLY person who will touch your car. As opposed to big shops or dealership that have ONE master mechanic and a bunch of young guys who will be the ones actually doing work on your car.
Try these guys out — you won’t go to anybody else.
