Santa Monica Auto Service

Ray and Don were pros at customer service. I brought my '97 Camry in the morning I called for an appointment. I'd previously been told I needed to replace the catalytic converter in order to pass my smog test. Within a few hours, I had my car back, my smog check passed, and hundreds of dollars saved. They figured out the actual issue and although they knew about the previous "diagnosis", didn't try to scam me for a part that wasn't required. Plus, they were very nice about offering rides. A+. I hope I don't have to go back, but know where to go if I do.

Awesome job! Don in particular is the very best, coolest, and most honest mechanic I've dealt with. This place is great.

U R always wonderful!

I've been going here for four years to keep my 1991 Integra with 225K miles running. Don and Ray have been fantastic. Honest, straight up and professional. They expertly keep my car running and always stand behind the work. A quickie oil joint chopped the oil pan plug and caused a weird drip from the pan. Don fixed it for Free! Good guys and great work. very happy.

Don and Ray have been taking care of my 1991 Acura Integra with 225K on it for four years. They know how important the car is to me (and how tight $ is) and have saved it more than once when other places would have put her down. Honest, straight up, professional and good guys. They stand behind the work too. When a quickie oil place chopped off the oil pan plug in a weird way causing a leak Don fixed it for FREE! really appreciate all the great work they do.

Don is who you want in your corner. He went beyond his job: he called me on his own time to follow up, he researched, he reached out to colleagues of his to find the most affordable way for me to fix my car, and he's a pleasure to work with. It's nice to know I have "my" mechanic on the westside. This job has won my loyalty for life.

Super fast and friendly service. Was able to register my car without going to the DMV too!

It was a great and very fast service. Perfect experience!

Luck was on my side when I found Santa Monica Motors! With all the good choices in automotive care in Los Angeles I truly feel that I found the best of the best. Don and Ray are amazing with their communication, work ethic, availability and problem solving and more. Along with their fantastic team of mechanics I've found a safe place to trust not only my car care but my care!

Good service. Quick turnaround. And I like getting the digital service report via email.
