Brian is a nice guy, and is reasonable with small issues, but when it comes to larger repairs, he is very expensive. I had my truck's struts replaced for close to $1000, but found later that it normally cost $600. I feel like he took advantage of me, because I was a woman. Not going back again.

Brian's knowledge of cars is above most shops around. I have taken my car several times now and have been pleased with the results. He tried to keep the cost down.

I would definitely not recommend this place idk how the place has any stars. 2023 Aug 7-9. Please DO NOT go here, even if you have one thought don't go here. Even if it's the last place you'd go , don't go here. Even if it's the only motor shop out there don't go here. PSA: to anyone who has self respect and respect for their vehicle DO NOT GO Here. Owner and I repeat the owner will try to charge you for work that IS NOT NEEDED , I got my work done by another mechanic where ha ha.. the owner said he couldn't work on another one did. For WAAAY better price y'all. If y'all want to know what mechanic I went too drop a comment, this is ridiculous and SCAM. Oh there 4.9 stars? That's a SCAM TOO. Again do not go hereDon't think for a second this is a place to go for your car ESPECIALLY if you don't know anything about cars. This place makes me wanna write 10000 reviews and I just might to show y'all do not go here!

This is a diamond in the rough.I brought my old car (2000) with over 160k miles, knowing very well there are many things wrong that need repair.However, they not only took care of the item I specifically requested, but they didn't try to sell me a ton of things to make more money. In fact, come to find out the person I was dealing with is the owner.I asked him about some other issues and he very kindly and clearly spelled out the costs, turnaround time, as well as his suggestions. This is kind of place for me. Please give me what I asked for and if I need anything else, I will gladly ask.Nothing pushy.Price was fair. Not expensive and 1 day turnaround.I definitely recommend this place.

I was first recommended to get my Honda Odyssey fixed by Brian when I casually mentioned about my starting problem with the Japanese vehicle while getting my Beemer worked on by Rick's BMW repair shop across the street. Brian replaced the starter and gave me a very fair price (my Odyssey is over 20 year old, n he knew I did not want to spend a lot on an oldie) with a remanufactured original part which he explained in detail to me about it being probably new because being labeled as "remanufactured" enables importers to bring in original new parts with minimal import duties. No problem thereafter!Recently one of my Beemer's 5 wheel bolts was unable to securely fasten my front driver side wheel properly and every bolt I plugged in was thread-shredded. I had a good experience with BMW dealership wheel alignment service in Buena Park so naturally I brought it there with this wheel related issue. Shockingly this BMW dealership wanted to charge me $299 just to look at it n if anything other than cross-threading of the hole was a problem, there would be extra part charges. Worse, they claim that my Beemer will sit in service between 3 to 8 hours! Brought the problem to Brian, and although he does not work on European vehicles, he resolved my cross-threading wheel bolt issue in 30 minutes at a small fraction of what those blood suckers at BMW dealerships would! That says a lot about the credibility, reliability and integrity of service at Brian's Auto, PERIOD!

This guy thinks I'm rich, he was trying to scam me into $2,590 to replace the differential axle on my truck. I saw him push the "RR Diff Lock" button back in again after he release it when we test drive. I thought something wrong with my truck. This was the type of business I was fearful to come to, making a bad name for Auto Repair. Not a happy customer! Be careful, always find a second opinion if you plan to go here.Service: Steering & suspension repair

I haven't been to Duarte in about 6 years but I must say Brian's Automotive had always taken care of our cars when we lived there. I am so happy to hear he's still around!! I even made a special trip from where we live now in Beaumont, (California) to have him do some work on my Honda Civic some time ago. He's always been fair and honest with my family, we miss having him as our go-to mechanic. To this day we haven't come across a mechanic like Brian. He was definitely our favorite mechanic! Wish he wasn't 70 miles away!! -Lauren Van Den Vryhoef
