I have to agree with the majority of the other reviews here: this place is good. Fast, polite, and $10 off with or without the coupon if you mention Yelp ~ AND you can go to Lazy Daisy cafe just up the street to have a coffee or something while you wait!
Had to get smogged for my latest car registration, and being a loyal customer of SM Motors next door (same owner), it was a no brainer to get it done here. Everything went smoothly as expected -- Bob was very helpful and explained everything clearly. It came out to about $60 after the coupon.
Quick and painless. Found the coupon on yelp - went there first thing in the morning and was out in 20 min. Super friendly, helpful, and affordable. Thank you for your help!!
Excellent service. Honest assessment of the problem and the problem was fixed. I felt that I was seen as a person and treated respectfully.
I have nothing but amazing things to say about Don and the Santa Monica Motors team after I brought in my 2001 Toyota 4Runner for it's 95k mile check up. Here are a few highlights:1. Amazing that they take online weekday reservations2. They have an after-hours drop box so I could drop my car off before they opened3. They kept me in the loop on progress4. They made a prioritized list of what I needed done and were very transparent on what needed to be done now, later, and at what different price tiers5. They came and picked me up when it was done!The best mechanic experience I've ever had.
Quick and friendly.
Ray is always friendly, helpful and honest.
Always a great experience! Ray, Don, Eloy...all great to work with.Suggestion: you should tie your shop database with this one. The mileage is wildly off on this email. You have the correct mileage on your shop system.
Got great input, great service, very reasonable fees, very honest. I took in a Prius, with which they have a lot of experience. Just with a routine service, they managed to fix a few issues that had been plaguing the car.
Awesome service!! Bob was excellent. Fast and helpful!! I was in and out in 30 minutes and these guys made the process very easy. I highly recommend these guys...
