Frank’s Auto

Desperate for business… Leaving low quality flyers nearly 8 miles away on car windows promising lowball rates that only equate to either substandard parts or service quality. We have plenty of shops that do quality work on Long Beach… Why would I drive through Compton and in to Lynwood. Oh yeah and the rates are all Minimum Price and Up which means I am betting almost nobody gets the advertised low price.
If you want to go here good luck but when you get screwed after reading this you were warned. If they were that good they wouldn’t be trying poor advertisement which mostly ends up as litter on our streets. People would be recommending them. (I was a professional in the automotive business and see that quality shops usually have cars lined up outside and can charge much more for the quality of work they do)
A previous rating by Manny V. Confirms exactly what I was saying above as well.

DO NOT GO HERE!!!
If it were possible to give negative stars I would.
So my Wrangler failed to pass Smog. I took it to this place for an emissions pretest and diagnostic. They were friendly and seemed attentive enough as I explained what I needed. $ 50 quote for a pretest… steep, but expected.
2 hours (for a PRETEST) and $ 50.00 later, the mechanic informed me that the pretest indicated that my Jeep needed a Valve job, that this generally a $ 1100.00 job, but he would graciously do it for $ 800.00. — This had to have been the most amazing pretest machine in the world!
Needless to say, I did not get the work done there and frankly I doubt that they performed any test or diagnostic at all on my vehicle. I went to a different mechanic, had an actual pretest done, had a Catalytic repair (for a fraction of Frank’s ridiculous claim), and passed Smog with flying colors.
In short this is the kind of place that will screw you while lying and telling your their doing you a favor by screwing you.
Hope this review helps you save your $ 50.00.

$ 25 for an oil change they supplied the Castrol oil of my liking I just brought the oil filter.
Fast service is a plus!
