Santa Monica Auto Service

Santa Monica Motors came to my rescue when my car broke down last week. Don and Ray were very thorough in finding the issue and reporting back to me. I've taken my car there for 4 years and they always give me peace of mind and an honest assessment.

Absolutely the ONLY place I take my cars. Service above and beyond anything I have ever experienced.

I brought my 1998 Honda in with a screeching sound at ignition. It's an old car, and lots of things have gone wrong with it, so I was prepared -- but dreadding -- the bill, which I thought would be hundreds of dollars. But it turned out to be a slipped belt, which was very inexpensive to repair. I have always had good service and appreciate the honesty of Santa Monica Motors. THANK YOU!

You did a great job on both cars! Fast, efficient and courteous. Best garage in L.A!!!

As always, careful and considerate attention paid to both my car and my time-constraint needs. Thanks for keeping me safe and confident in being on the road.

Quick and professional - everything you want when getting your auto smogged.

Found this place through Yelp and so so so glad I did. REALLY quick and REALLY easy. It's on first come, first serve. Brought my car in for a smog certification at 12:15. Checked in at the desk with Bob and while he got the paperwork ready, his attendant was already on my car. Literally less than 10 minutes later, I was done. NO LIE. Granted, I came when there was no one else there, so there was literally no wait. Bob was funny and personable. Explained the process and even gave me tips on how to preserve the life of my car. We all hate getting smog checks and waiting, but this place is so efficient and easy that it makes it painless. Highly recommend!!! P.S. remember to check in on Yelp or use their online discount for $10 off. With discount, came out to be $59.

We've gone back here a couple times now and they do a phenomenal job, always very quickly. They've always been really friendly and I cannot imagine a better experience for dealing with a smog check.

Santa Monica Motors is excellent! I've finally found a car repair place that does great work and that I can trust. The owner, Don, is excellent and really goes the extra mile.Ray runs the office and scheduling. He's very friendly, efficient and trustworthy too! I highly recommend Santa Monica Motors for your next car repair needs.
