We have been coming here for about 10 years for tires, service, you name it. Thought it was an honest place until we recently had our starter replaced here. They gave us three different quotes for three different starters, depending on the quality we wanted. We chose the most expensive starter and after the parts and labor, it was well over $ 700, which wasn’t the issue. The issue was, after we were called to pick up the car, we asked to see the box and the maker of the newly installed starter to ensure we were not getting the «Made in China» starter as they suggested we not get. The manager couldn’t tell us where the box was or what brand was installed and told us that the owner would call us. We also looked on the service order ticket and nowhere was the part number, make nor any info was stated. When we called the owner, he was not available and our phone call ever returned. Going with my gut instinct that the starter we paid for was not the one installed.

The customer service was great. However they were gonna charge me 2050.00 bucks to fix my car with parts and labor l. I went online ordered the parts for 350.00 and did the repair my self

First of all, it is not easy to find a repair shop that opens on Sunday and Yes, this place opens on Sunday.
I was freaking out because my engine light was suddenly on before leaving to San Jose, so stopped by have them look at it. Robbie checked my car and said there was nothing wrong but the gas cap got loose. He charged me nothing and told me «you owed me a handshake!»
I like the fact that they are honest and provide great service. Thanks again Robbie.
I would recommend this shop to everyone who needs car services.

I come here for all my car service needs! I tried going to my dealership but they were no help. This place has great costumer service, nice waiting area to wait for your car. I think they even have a car to take you home if you want. Well I just got a whole lot of things done to my vehicle this pass visit. Oil Change, new tires and breaks, new shocks and new belts all for a very affordable price. I will recommend anyone looking for great service and prices to come here!

Fast, quick and friendly service. I walked in to get a full set of tires and walked out in less than 45 minutes. These guys are AWESOME!

Elite is as good as it gets. When I first stated going to Elite 2 years ago, my truck broke down and I had to be towed — when I told the the tow operator where my Mechanic was, he said «oh I know them — they are really good»…that made me feel so much better. They have 2 loaner cars (which is a big plus in my book). I have worked with both Robbie and Josh quite a few times — they are very down to earth and let you know all your options when you are in a repair situation. I have price compared as well, and they are always the best. I have had many mechanics in the past and am always looking for something better. Since I have come here I have stopped looking. AND THEY ARE OPENED SATURDAY AND SUNDAY — HOW AWESOME IS THAT!!!

I went to this Goodyear with a wobble in my front end at 70 MPH. I expected the worst they said it was just a tire balance issue and fixed it quickly for me. WOW! An honest mechanic what a relief. I also had them change the air filter and cabin filter in my car they were so much cheaper than my dealer and did it oh so fast I definitely recommend this shop to anyone in the La Habra, Brea, Fullerton area

Needed an alignment and Costco members get a discount here with a coupon. Service was prompt and friendly. What I was impressed about was their restroom. THE cleanest restroom for an auto shop I have ever been in. To me that says alot about a business.

I highly recommend this place! They provide great customer service and honest work. Josh, the manager, is super helpful and demonstrates good work ethic and integrity. I’ve taken my car to them on several occasions and have been satisfied with their work every single time!

I shopped around for a timing belt and found that this place had the best price, so I decided to give them a try. I was pleasantly surprised with the service. The manager went above expectations with service. They even finished the work ahead of time. They did up sell me on a belt, but the car probably needed it. Overall, they did a good job.

i have a free oil change certificate here and still will not go. everytime i go they tell me its going to be an hour to a two hour wait. and when i call ahead to see if it is busy i get sick attitude from the dude answering the phone! they also dont make appointments so you are screwed.

This was a horrible place to go!
so i went in because my sisters bf had recomended them. I had gotten a quote after a tune up on a valve cover that needed to be replaced to prevent oil leaking since mine was cracked. I had gotten the initial tune up there and went back to get the repair. not even a month later, the car started smoking and it had to be towed home, when we got a friend to come look at it it turns out that the new cover hadn’t been sealed right, it just wasn’t properly done, there was a silicone seal missing and the other seal wasn’t done all the way, and actually leaked MORE oil then when it had been cracked, the previous burnt oil hadn’t been cleaned off, they found metal shavings in the engine, a broken piston rod, and in the end the entire engine will have to be replaced. I’m betting the car would be fine if we had just left it alone. I can’t believe they missed all these problems! they mentioned brakes and how i needed new ones which i knew but was having a family member do. and the check engine light was on which acording to their tune up was on because of the valve cover. they didn’t turn it off after the repair which should have clued me into something being wrong. because they should have told me after the tune up or even after the repair because if all this is wrong in the engine a mechanic would have noticed… and all this damage could in no way happen in less then a month after it had just been tuned up
it was a complete rip off and i know i’m never going there again if i could give them 0 stars i would. I didn’t stay and be chatty with anyone in the waiting area. i think that the not waiting too long would have been a plus if the not doing it right didn’t scream that they did a rush job! i would rather wait and get it done right. service mainly ignored me granted i only spent 10 minutes in that waiting room.

Great & Friendly Service, and very helpful & they Will work with U if U live in the Area …

It’s important to be comfortable in where you take your car and i definately feel comfortable here. These guys are honest and work to give you reasonable prices. Not only that, but i’ve never had to wait long for any services.

These guys are the best! They stand by their work, and they help their customers. I had a lot of work done there, but they did somethings like put on belts that I had in the trunk, for free.

Had a so so experience here. What was to be a quick 30 min oil change, turned out to be a couple of hours ordeal.
I was planning to take my car in before I started work (which I got there plenty of time beforehand). The guys there said it would be about 20 – 30 min. Perfect! Well, it was nearing 30 min and I was already going to be late to work. They said it would only be another few min so I waited. I work down the street a few (long) blocks but I also worked in a retail store in which I was the opener for the day and HAD to be on time, if not early. I started to freak out about being late so they offered to shuttle me to my workplace. Nice gesture and service they provide.
We had an ordeal about which oil my car took too so instead of finishing up like they were supposed to, they call me at work to discuss the type of oil my car may need and were trying to charge me more than my dealer charges. I said no. They were trying to up-​sell me.
After confirming with my dealership and with a few car buff friends of mine, we went with the regular oil…
Pros about this place are that they are cheap. They sometimes have fundraisers where they sell 3 oil changes for $ 25. You get an oil change card that has a checklist of your three oil changes that they mark off as you use them.
Cons about this place: Don’t appreciate the long amounts of time they take or that they try to up-​sell me… maybe because I’m a girl?

First of all let me tell you that I am the son of a master mechanic who refused to allow me to follow in his footsteps, and alas I now have 2 degrees. Anyways, my wife drives a Ford, and it needs to fixed ever so often. The brakes were squeaking, and I found a coupon for this place that advertised a brake pad replacement for $ 129.99. They tried to tell me that the rotors needed to be turned. They tried to scare me by telling me that it was a safety issue. THey missed the fact that the squeal was also coming from the rear brakes pads (warning tab) and even their quote of $ 377.00 would not have included ultimately stopping the nefarious squeak. They tried to tell me that the rotors were too thin to be turned and needed to be replace along with the bearings. Their price for rotors were $ 110 each. I called a Clark’s auto parts in Downey, CA and got a quote on the rotors for $ 40 each. But alas, measure the rotors and read the specs which stated that they were not too thin to be turned. So, I turned the rotors, replaced the brake pads. Total cost — $ 40.00 for brake pads from Autozone. If you purchase your pads fom some PArts Plus retailers they will turn the rotors for free.
