Astro Auto Electric

Spent the last several months and hundreds of dollars at another shop trying to get my electrical issue resolved. Well it did NOT happen until I took my 18 year old Jeep to Astro’s. For about half of what I had already spent and 2 or 3 days I finally had my issue resolved. And the best part was that they guaranteed the work. I’m so happy that my Friebd recommended Astro to me. Tori was great!

It’s next to impossible to find a shop that does starter and alternator rebuilds these days, much less one that has a good reputation and decent pricing. I gave them my ’97 Toyota Landcruiser starter w/​full rebuild kit including everything from plunger, contacts, and bearings to grommets and seals. They had no problem using my (customer-​supplied) parts, and they returned my starter freshly rebuilt, including a great paint job, for $ 55 out the door! First time I’ve felt like the customer was robbing the business. BTW I found out that, in addition to anything electrical, they also do tune-​ups and brakes.
When picking up the starter, I noticed several $$$$$ classic cars in for repairs in their garage; I’m not surprised Astro is the choice of the perfectionist classic car crowd. Astro has been a family owned business for over 40 years– this business is truly a Los Angeles gem. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The only place I will take my cars for repair. Was referred by another auto repair shop couple years ago and am so glad they did. Quality work from honest people. I trust everything the lady running it tells me. She gives it to you straight, no BS like other places. Family owned, friendly, fair, honest and quality work. I recommend this place to anyone looking for repairs.

Quality service, knowledgeable staff, quality parts and quick turn around time. Just had a Wagner high output alternator rebuilt. Price was very fair and got my vehicle back the same day… Price was very fair.
Would recommend them to any folks needing electical work.

I was referred to Astro Auto Electric by a buddy who had nothing but good to say about his alternator rebuilt. First impression (call) was with the very nice lady, gave a quick quote and that was that. I had my alternator dropped off was ready wtihin a couple hours, installed and works PERFECT. Just last week my starter took a dump on me so I called and reached the nice lady again, quick quote and starter dropped off… 2 hours later starter is rebuilt/​finished, installed and works PERFECT.
All I can say is good customer service, work, and they provide a warranty on work performed. I would recommend anybody needing a rebuilt performed (much more affordable then paying a stealership for rebuilt). I’m on forums where people get remans that crap out soon after install, and a buddy who had another local shop rebuilt 2 starters which well both need rebuilds again and or replacement … 2 thumbs up for Astro!

Was told about this place by another shop for my issue was electrical and this was their speciality. Lady inside was very friendly and she definitely knew what she was talking about. They told one what they were going to do to diagnose the problem and charged me 90 for the diagnose which I thought was fair. They called me later and told what the problem was and gave me updates throughout the day. An incident occurred with a certain auto store not replacing my battery warranty and astro electrical went out of their way to talk to them on the phone and have it replaced. They helped me out a lot and we’re honest about everything. Some cool cars inside too.

Rip off alert. Don’t waste your time here. They quoted me $ 600 and then when I went to pick up the car they said $ 300. They tried to take advantage and they will do the same with others. Plus, they make you pay $ 90 just for them to look at the car.

Thoroughly Competent and Honest, Astro is one of the VERY FEW family rebuilders in Los Angeles– I have NEVER had a premature failure of any part of theirs on any of my vehicles– Whether its a plain stock starter motor, a custom build for a high compression engine, or making a 1 wire alternator to fit your toyota or ford– Astro is the 1 stop shop– Many of my friends insist that they can save $ 20, and get a lifetime warranty from Kragen or Pep boys, etc– but then they are replacing them every 18-mo’s! Not much of a savings to me– The last starter Astro built for me worked many times a day for over ten years when I sold the truck– I’m sure it is working still–

Joe has been there forever. Anything electric with your car he is the guy.
