The end of an era!! Chris retired yesterday! New owner took over the shop, and it's still called Sierra Madre Honda. The new owner is the guy who runs the mechanic shops next door. Don't know anything about him. I loved Chris because all he did was Hondas, and his work was phenomenal! Thank you Chris for all the years of taking care of our cars. You will be missed. And enjoy your retirement!!!!

I've been going to Chris for some time now, and he has never done me wrong. Always honest and always reliable.

Unfortunately, Chris only works on Honda automobiles. But if you drive a Honda, you should never take your car anywhere else! He is knowledgeable, fair, and honest. Just what I'm looking for in a mechanic. Example: a Honda dealer told me I needed brakes right away. "Down to 2% on your brake pads" they warned me. Made an appointment with Chris at the recommendation of a trusted friend. He actually told me it was safe to drive another 10,000 miles on those brakes. What do we learn from my experience? Sierra Madre Independent Honda=GOOD Rock Honda Service = BAD Will never take my 2013 Accord anywhere else!

This review is long overdue. And based on my experience, I think all the raving 5 star Yelp reviews are the real deal. I had a burnt out running light bulb on my car. It was a small issue, but I like everything to be in working order on a car. My car is old and for its entire life I've been taking it to a place in Arcadia that just works on Hondas. I went to my place in Arcadia first. They told me the light is hard to reach and the wheel has to be removed and I'd need to make an appointment because it was going to take an hour....and it's not that important... Blah, blah, blah... I had the day off work and was determined to get my bulb replaced so I came here next on a whim. I'd never been here before. It was a cold morning in December. He said his hands don't work in the cold... and asked me to come back in the afternoon when it's warmer. I did. When I returned, he quickly came out and asked me to turn the wheel hard to one side. I did. He reached up under the fender and changed the bulb in less than 5 minutes. No taking the wheel off. None of that. He simply knew where the bulb was and replaced it by touch. Sight unseen. After my earlier experience, I was impressed! When I reached for my wallet to pay he said "keep your money, Merry Christmas!" Super nice gesture!! I definitely want to come back here next time my car needs work.

He's honest, reliable and does an excellent job!! If you're looking for the best care for you Honda or Acura give him a call!!

Chris is clearly a very knowledgeable mechanic - it's clear that he has worked on a lot of Hondas, and you can tell just by chatting to his other customers that he has a loyal customer base of people that have been bringing him cars for years, because he's trustworthy and talented. His prices are very reasonable - some of the work I expected to do on my car myself I might end up bringing here instead.

Chris is truly a gifted and honest mechanic. The heater on my old Honda Element was not blowing hot air. I took it to two different Honda Dealership service centers and they could not determine the problem. Chris found the problem in about 20 minutes. He also determined that my transmission problem does NOT need a new transmission ($3K+) as the dealership mechanics had recommended and instead it was a transmission mount that would instead be less than $300. He has saved me thousands and given new life to my old Honda that I love. It is hard to find an honest, reliable mechanic that really knows their stuff, and also offers great customer service. I am very grateful for having found Chris and Sierra Madre Independent Honda Service.

My family has been going to Chris' for years. He's always been super honest. My dad gave me his old, beat up Odyssey that had more ailments then a antivax child and when I took it to Chris he said, "Your dad wouldn't listen, but you should really just get rid of this car. You're paying more than it's worth." I knew this but it was refreshing to hear it from a professional. I trust Chris with my new Honda too.

I used to work nearby and once my car needed tuneup it was a no brainer. He was very professional and gave me a good quote and time and it beat all the others so I went with him and he did a good job. Afterwards we just talked for about 10 minutes about the area and other stuff nice buy.

Chris was super helpful, I came in looking to fix my broken taillight and he helped me find the piece on Amazon and installed it for me free of charge. One of the best services I've ever gotten hands down

I've never gone anywhere else. We have 4 Honda's in our family and we take all of them here.
