“My Ford Fusion’s water pump went out & I contacted a few shops in the San Gabriel Valley where none of the shops were skilled to perform the complex repair for this 1.5L Ford Ecoboost engine. Even the local Ford Dealer service center never returned my two calls? Then I found Lima Auto Repair where Chris eased my worries & stated that they were totally skilled with these engines & had all the complex tools necessary. The cost were reasonable and the repairs were professionally done in a few days. Customer service, smartphone appraisal & approval process was awesome! My car is like new again & I received a great warranty for my repair. Mike the owner even washed my car before I picked it up. My new auto repair shop is Lima Auto Repair. Go see Chris & Mike, you will be impressed with this shop. Thank you ?”
“This process should have gone off the rails and this should be a one star review, but here's what happened. I made my order online and set the appointment. Not fifteen minutes later I get a text saying the system showed my tires in stock but they can't get four, please call. I'm ready for the whole thing to fall apart, but the operator found four comprable, no big price difference, so fine. A week and a half later I show up to my appointment and the tires aren't there.
I'm pretty annoyed at this point and the guy says, 'look you took off work, here's what we'll do' and he sends one of his guys to go to the warehouse in Santa Fe Springs (they were already running behind) and they'll bring the tires back need an extra hour.
There's hope out there folks, customer service still exists and I will be making sure to return the next time I need tires. See you guys in 75K miles or so.”

“REPLACE YOUR RIDE COME HERE
This place rules, and Ning the owner intentionally compares his prices to the jacked up ones at car max and puts them two or three thousand lower. Not only that, he is a stand up business man. After I got my ford fusion plug in hybrid, I took it to a mechanic with a $20,000 computer to check it and everything came back perfectly clean. He really takes the time to make sure you are getting a good reliable car for a good price.”

“I was referred to C & L Auto Repair by a friend who knows the owner personally. This humble auto shop is owned by Cau, who is friendly, honest, and unassuming. Unfortunately, I know little to nothing about cars. However, after leaving my car with Cau, he called me soon with an update. It turns out that my car needed a new spark plug replacement. He walked me through what needed to be done, the prices for different OEM/generic options, and clearly explained everything. I had a great experience here and would recommend to friends/family, please support this small business. :)”

3367 N San Gabriel Blvd, Rosemead“Have been coming here since we moved to the area in 2019, we were bringing my husbands work truck and recently took in our Gladiator when we suspected the battery needed changing, I went to my dealer( where I had been going for years for this truck) they wanted $250 to “inspect” the truck to tell me what was wrong on top of what the cost would be for the “fixing” left the dealer came to LC and he charged only the fee for battery and replacement not inspection fee like the crazy dealer! So glad we have someone like this shop we can trust with our vehicles! Highly recommend!”
“I have been following the technicians of this company for decades. When I have a problem nobody can diagnose, I went to the place they worked before. Unfortunately, their Boss (owner of business) passed away, he was an old school suspension/frame technician. He trained them. All the mechanics in the SGV knew where to go when they had a car with a serious alignment/frame issues. Plus, the prices were always fair.
If you prefer going to a place with an expensive alignment system I understand.
The mistake you’re making is you believe they cannot afford a modern system. It’s definitely a preference for the old school way they were trained.
A modern alignment system shop is great.
I go to those places too. Those machines used properly are great. My Autoshop teacher friend trains students to use them. You can teach a novice tech quickly. However, does the technician truly understand suspension? Are they properly torquing the alignment adjustments? Are they paying attention to all bushings and control arms? All those original suspension parts are expensive. Are you going to replace them with cheap aftermarket parts or quality parts? This is why most people get ripped off. Cheap parts don’t last, and can fail.
I had a 93 Corolla that no fancy Alignment shop could fix. They would align it and a month later the steering wheel would be crooked. This went on for a decade. Finally, I remembered what we did in 70s and 80s. I took the car to the place Jorge was working (Google rules prevent me from mentioning). Jorge figured it out almost instantly. It was a worn rack and pinion bushing. A problem my fancy alignment shop couldn’t figure out, because the modern alignment machine said the car was perfectly aligned. The young technicians just didn’t have the experience or the insight to look beyond the alignment adjustments.
I have read many reviews for JB Alignment. If you don’t trust Jorge, don’t go to JB. If you don’t believe an alignment can be done without a fancy alignment system and in fact can done just as well, go to another place. I have an old Highlander that needs lower control arms. Toyota dealer quoted over $2000 in parts and 8 hours of labor. Jorge is doing it considerably cheaper because he has the experience to do the job efficiently, with quality parts, and the knowledge that I trust him and will continue to seek his help/service as long as I have cars.
I think younger people believe and trust technology. I completely understand. But, older people like me trust expertise. Plus, we remember when someone comes through for us and saves us money. You negative reviewers stay away. The place is always busy. You make the line shorter!
If you don’t trust Jorge, stay away!
A lot of people don’t replace their shocks and struts, or let someone replace them with cheap aftermarket replacements. Quality parts and labor to replace OEM shocks and struts are very expensive, but worn shocks/struts, miles, and age destroy suspension bushings. We make our problems worse by putting off maintenance. You cannot expect any place to permanently fix suspension that is worn out and not properly maintained. Some reviewers have unrealistic expectations or are blaming JB for previous mistakes made by other mechanics, especially those that use bargain basement aftermarket parts installed improperly.”
“I took my car in for a check-up because it was overheating. I dropped it off and waited for his phone call. He let me know that the thermostat needed to be replaced for $325. Yikes! My wallet took a hit, but it was reasonable, and absolutely necessary. I picked it up the next day. It was ready way before he said it would be done, which was a plus. He was really friendly, and the job was done. What more could I ask for? A job well done at a reasonable price. I'll be swinging by again next time my car decides to act up. Thanks for your services!”
“I went into Tony muffler's shop and had my exhaust leaks fix. I had 2 underneath. The driver's side and the other one underneath the passenger side. My flange gasket burned out Tony, fixed all my leaks and my truck, has more horsepower and sounds better.I was actually losing gas mileage because of my exhaust leak. My truck feels great now. Sounds great. Thank you, Tony. I highly recommend TONYS muffler shop to anybody who wants to get their EXHAUST SYSTEM fixed I'm also going back to get my radiator flushed out. Let's go I can't wait for that. Thank you, tony, for your service and your knowledge.”
“Fantastic as always. Whenever I feel that my dealership is trying to squeeze every penny out of me, I come here for a second opinion and they have never failed me. I can trust my car here knowing every penny I spend will be fair and well worth it.”
“High recommended this location.professional,experienced and friendly staff.They also have a clean and big AC waiting room for customers.Price is reasonable and fast service even during a pretty busy day.”
