Santa Monica Auto Service

What a great place! Bob at the front desk was extremely kind and helpful. I was in and out within 10 minutes on a Thursday at 10am. No need to hate smog checks any more. Just go here and all is fabulous. Thanks guys.

I'm so grateful to have found a trustworthy mechanic in town. Karim and Josh take great care of my Prius. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my baby!

I love Santa Monica motors!

The service was excellent as always!

Santa Monica Motors provides honest estimates and does great work. The people who work there are not idiots. They are very knowledgeable and present all options so that you can make an informed decision. Such a rare find!

fantastic good service be back again

I have never had such a positive experience at a repair shop, in or out of LA. My car has never driven better, and prices were very reasonable. Cannot recommend highly enough to anyone.

I appreciate the detailed invoice I'm provided and the clear-cut explanations of what needs to be done. What's really valuable are the reminders for the next needed servicing.

Bob is clearly super knowledgeable, and he's got a straight shooter charm that is extremely comforting. Smog check with confidence, and learn a thing or two about your car too,

I am a car guy who does a lot of basic work on my own cars. However, there are those times where something comes up that is above my wrenching acumen. That happende recently when the tachometer gauge in my track car started moving erratically. Since this was a likely electrical problem, it had to be taken somewhere. I had used Santa Monica motors several years ago for repair on a former Honda I used to own, and enjoyed the service then. Well, the same holds true now. I was given a clear description of the electrical problem, and it was fixed that day to my satisfaction. My second car is a dedicated track car that is far from stock and highly modified. This did not discourage Karim (owner) from working on the car. This place is honest as the day is long and you get nothing but the feeling that they simply want to get the problem solved and you back on the road. Highy recommended.
