Andre’s Automotive

Came in for a routine check-​up and they were extremely friendly and upfront. Was able to get new front brake pads and a full inspection at a very reasonable cost and in under 2 hours. This was on a Saturday. Very impressed and recommend highly!

Can not say enough good things about Andre’s Automotive and Andre himself! I’m so relieved to finally find a nice and honest mechanic. It’s just an added bonus that he lives down the street from me!
I have brought my car in twice over the past few months, for minor repairs and maintenance. This past weekend after breaking down on the freeway, I brought my car to Andre again. Within a few hours he called me back to tell me what the problem was and that I should try calling my dealership because these parts on my car were getting recalled. I called the dealer and it turns out this part was covered under the extended warranty for a recall! I would have had no idea! Andre saved me hundreds by being honest and straight forward with me. But in return, he will have a customer for many years to come! Don’t think about going anywhere else — Andre is your guy.

I got my car repaired at Andre;s a few weeks ago and it was an excellent experience. I had my entire front axle replaced, started replaced, and new drum brakes installed on a 1994 Nissan Sentra for well under what I had been quoted by other mechanics. It only took about 4 days (dropped off on a Friday, picked up on the following Wednesday) and Andre was exceedingly accommodating, polite, and straightforward. I realized after the fact that this was in fact the place my cousin had been recommending for years, and now I see why! Thank you, Andre!

What a great easy experience. I had always gone to my local guy near me who was good but Andre’s customer service and explanation of my issues was on point. He was thorough and took into consideration what I had anticipated on spending. My car was ready by the end of the day and I was really happy with the outcome.
Thanks Andre!

I had a fantastic experience with Andre’s Automotive. Andre’s is now my official go-​to for all my auto repair & service needs! He does fantastic work at a fair price and everyone there is incredibly nice.

Andres is great! I was in dire need of a new clutch for my 2007 Mini Cooper Sport, a pretty costly repair. Fortunately, a co-​worker referred me to Andres and I feel so grateful that he did! My co-​worker has been bringing his cars to Andres for a few years and told me that not only was he a great mechanic but that he was trustworthy as well. Andres gave me a great quote and while my car was in his shop, he noticed that the rotors on my front brakes were too small. I had my front brakes done a few months earlier by another shop and if Andres hadn’t noticed that, over time, my front brakes would have resulted in another costly repair. AND Andres noticed that I needed an oil change and a new fog light that had gone out and he helped to raise my slightly sagging front bumper.
So…yes, Andres replaced my clutch but he also assessed my vehicle overall. I will be bringing my car here in the future and I will be referring my friends to Andres.
And on top of all of this, Andres was such a nice man to deal with.
Thank you Andres!!!

I love this place! ANDRE is such a «GREAT» machanic. I go to him whenever I need my car worked on. There is no one else that I «TRUST» with my car. ANDRE is not only a good machanic he also gives you a piece mind. He is not there to rip you off. We need more people like ANDRE! ANDRE your the best!

I absolutely love Andre’s. When I first moved to LA, a friend of mine recommended him and I have never taken my car anywhere else; he’s never once tried to pressure me into unnecessary charges, his prices are more than fair, and he always sees me in a timely manner. I drive a 2000 Mustang with low miles for its year… but its still a fifteen (almost sixteen) year old car at the time of writing this. The fact that its still running smoothly is 100% thanks to Andre. I travel a lot for work and every time I’m in town and need of having something looked at, he schedules me right away and remembers exactly who I am over the phone – something that amazes me to this day. His lot is always crowded with luxury vehicles, as well; clearly there are many out there who feel the same way about him and his place as I do! Could not recommend him more. An HONEST, HARD WORKING mechanic is a rare find if you’re not going with a friend’s recommendation… so trust me (and everyone else here, it seems!) and give Andre your business. I really don’t think you’ll be disappointed!

I have been going to Andre for a few years since my husband started taking his car there. Now our two sons do also. The work is excellent, the prices are fair and what I most appreciate about Andre is that he doesn’t invent problems but instead is very focused on how to repair what is actually wrong. I’ve sent my friends there and they all agree. He also does the work in a very timely manner. I highly recommend him!

Never felt more like our mechanic really cared about us as customers than we did when we went to Andre’s. He went WAY above and beyond in helping us with a difficult fix and we just can’t thank him enough. The customer service at Andre’s is truly next level and we will certainly be back. He’s an honest man who runs an honest business, and couldn’t be more fair to his customers.

This was my first time taking my car to a new mechanic and I am so glad I did. Andre was very honest and professional. He was very easy to work with and made the experience of getting my car repaired much less painful.

I have been dealing with Andre for a number of years & there’s NO WAY I would take my vehicle to ANYONE else. His work is superb & he’s to be totally trusted. I allow him to tell me &/​or fix anything necessary. Aside from him telling me what I need he’ll also tell me what I don’t need, therefore, saving me money by suggesting a simpler or cheaper way of correcting a problem. I’ve turned others on to Andre’s Automotive & these people can’t thank me enough for me suggesting they do ALL their repairs with him.

For me, an initial indication of a good shop is it’s cleanliness and attention to the customer when pulling in. Andre’s shop is an exceptional shop as I found him to be honest in his assessment of requested repairs and pricing only needed repairs. He is in contact with the customer regarding repairs that maybe needed assuring that when he releases the car it is safe to drive. Strongly recommend and to my knowledge since it’s a certified repair shop warranty work can be done without voiding manufacturer’s warranty. Thanks Andre, Mario

Love this place! I have taken my car and my husbands car here twice and we are very happy! its very hard these days to find a good HONEST body shop. I am so tired of body shops telling you that you need work done just to get money from you. Andre is the opposite. when I thought my brakes were bad, he said my brakes are in good condition and not to worry! I am not use to that! He has affordable prices and he’s very nice and patient! I use to get anxiety going to body shops but now I feel comfortable dropping off my car knowing I am getting taken care of and in good hands!
I would 100% recommended anyone come get there car worked on here if you want good customer service, Honesty, and good prices.
so happy I finally found a body shop that I will continue and only go to!

The Shane Family has relied on the automotive repair expertise of Andre even before he started on his own. well over 23 years. He is a totally honest mechanic and a sincere gentleman. He knows cars and has always advised us if the problem was solvable or not. We have owned much older cars and he did not turn us away like the dealerships who merely wanted to sell us new cars only. While we no longer live in Sherman Oaks, we still have our relatively new car serviced at Andre’s Automotive. He is the very best and we highly recommend him.

Andre did a good job and did everything that I asked. He was a quick with his work and kindly had someone give me a ride from the shop to my house while he worked on my car. A great mechanic with great customer service! Would definitely recommend!

Andre’s an AMAZING mechanic and goes above and beyond to make sure The Grayson family’s cars are taken care of. In addition to his stellar work, he’s honest, has INCREDIBLE customer service, and pays attention to EVERY detail. As a matter of fact, my Mother (Mary Grayson) took her brand new car to him, only to find out that parts had been recalled and mandatory services had to be performed. Important updates that the DEALERSHIP didn’t even notice or act on.
He is one of THE ONLY reputable mechanics left and if you’re in the area, you should take every car you own to him. This is also a family owned business with strong ties to the community. The Grayson family has been going to them for 16 years.

Andre is really a wonderful guy and great mechanic.
I took my mini there to get it ready to sell. I had TWO other mechanics check it out and they both gave me conflicting advice on what to fix, not to mention their prices were 30% higher!
Andre’s quotes came in lower and he gave me REAL, HONEST feedback on what I NEEDED to do before I put my car up for sale.
On top of my Mini’s work… the car dealership that I bought my new car from takes ALL of their vehicles to him to get a 77 point inspection. So they’ve been trusting him for YEARS. And now I know my new car is in good shape!

Andre replaced the engine in my Toyota Sequoia. Incredibly reasonble. He was done on time. I will go back.

The best compliment I can give Andre is that I trust him more than I trust the dealership to repair my cars. I’ve taken my cars to Andre for about five years.
He’s honest and doesn’t exaggerate needed repairs. His pricing is fair. He’s very easy to reach by phone to make an appointment. I never have to wait long to get the car into his shop, and the car is always read for pick-​up when he says it will be ready, and quite often he has it ready even sooner than expected.
Andre is helping me keep the car in shape to get high mileage out of my beloved Odyssy.
The repairs Andre has done for me include:
timing belt
engine bolt replacement
window motor replacement
electrical wiring
transmission fluid replacement
oil changes
and more.
Exiting Andre’s shop can be a little difficult because Woodman is so incredibly busy, but Andre always has the car facing the street for me to make exiting easier. I never have to ask.
Highly Recommended.
