I brought my 56 Chevy pickup to have the radiator, and thermostat replaced. It was a very challenging job because the parts I brought him did not match the custom engine and frame. He had to adapt new brackets for the replacement radiator and fan shroud. He treated me with respect and patience during the installation process and kept me informed with pictures and texts messages during the whole process. Clean shop and courteous staff. I highly recommend.

Employees were very helpful and friendly both on the phone and in person. I didn t feel at any point like they were trying to stick me with extra charges, and overall they seemed very transparent and honest. Prices were great compared to other mechanics in the area, and my car was done quickly. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend supporting this business!!

This shop is the best.... I ve always worked on my own cars but this time i needed help from the pros.. I needed a timing chain replaced and other items as well. I was not wanting to do this at first cause it is a pricey repair. However they were the best priced and gave me a warranty on parts and labor, I m glad I did it with this shop they are very friendly and honest. I can t stress how important it is to have a honest mechanic by your side.. they are the best at what they do and their work speaks for itself. I will gladly come back and refer friends and family.. Oh it s also a family owned shop which is a huge plus. Thanks Mario s for everything you guys are the best.

I had a very good first experience coming to this shop for a starter replacement/repair. I was recommended to them by a friend, and have no regrets using their service. Nestor helped me with my car ,and knew right away what the issue was. I am a young Lady who knew little to nothing about cars and was comfortable with them, and did not feel taken advantage of. Overall , great family business with kind people.

Not too many repair shops make you feel at ease anymore. Good vibes from these guys. Truly a family business run by good people.Never had seconds thoughts about their work, or their work ethic. Staff is easy going and genuinely helpful. Thank u to Mario Jr for helping me out when I was far from home and in a jam.

If you love supporting small businesses, Mario s Auto Repair is one of the best places for general auto repair in Gardena. They are family-owned and operated for many years and they know how to do it right. Honest and fair-priced, there s real value for you to come here for your car s needs. I drive a 2007 Ram 1500 so you know I ve had repairs done and Mario s Auto Repair has always treated me fairly and honestly, making recommendations but never being pushy about it. I ve had A/C work, transmission service, tune-ups, oil changes, shocks, brakes, and alignment and never once felt I didn t get quality work for a great price. Calling around for prices will convince you, too! I have recommended them to friends before and they agree, so now I m recommending you check them out, too, you won t be disappointed!

I visited Marios about a month ago. I was nervous because my car needed some work before moving across the country. The service was outstanding. From the minute I walked in they treated me like family, were very friendly and put my mind at ease. I wasn't sure what all needed to be done, they checked over everything and told me what needed work and what I could wait on. They showed me every single part they put in, they gave me options on which brand of tire and explained the differences of each one and which they recommended. I have never worked with such honest mechanics, they did excellent work on my car and barely charged me anything for labor. It's hard to find a good mechanic, and I was really glad I found this one. I would highly reccomend this business!

I am a local insurance agent and I have been recommending and using Mario's Auto Repair for over 8 years. They are always fair priced and I feel they do excellent work. They are also a family run business. I highly trust them to do a good job and in a timely manner.

JR took excellent care of our 2015 Chrysler 200. He was honest, friendly and efficient. By honest I mean we took it to a mechanic in Long Beach that wanted to replace the engine and do some other repairs for $6000. Come to find out through JR at Mario s we didn t need a new engine; it s fine. What was needed was done for significantly less than what the other place would have charged and the car now runs like a dream. We ve finally found our go to mechanic.

Great place! We needed someone to pickup our car from a storage facility and later dropped off at a shipping company. They were willing to do all that in addition to the repairs the car needed. Junior and his father went above and beyond.

These guys are great. I had a leaking radiator hose and it was over 100 degrees. I'm new to the area and didnt know where to go. I had a bad experience at a place down the street and didnt want to get robbed again so I Googled the nearest auto repair shop. The reviews were great at Mario's so I decided to give them a shot.The guys at Mario's auto were fast, friendly and gave me a great price to replace the hose. They are trully family operated and they treated me like a valued customer. I highly recommend these guys for all your auto repair needs. You have gained a loyal customer. Thank you to all the staff at Mario's, this world needs more businesses like yours.

I required repairs to my vehicle's emergency brake system and rear brakes and everyone at Mario's was very helpful and professional. The final cost was on par with what I expected and fair. They went above and beyond by helping me drive my car to a drop-off site from their shop when I couldn't be there in person.

Absolutely without a doubt the best mechanic shop ive ever been to. The mechanic was very curteous and they wasted no time in finding out what was wrong with our vehicle. We were amazed at the cleanliness, proffessionalism and effectiveness of this business. Our vehicle was fixed and ready to go within minutes and that was very much appreciated, we needed this, this is now our official mechanic shop and we highly recommend it. Thanks guys keep up the good work

My truck began to break down on the freeway near this shop recently so I drove the truck to their shop before it completely died on me. I was stranded 45 minutes away from home and the guys at this shop diagnosed and repaired the truck in a few hours while I caught lunch nearby. I was back home just a few hours later. They took care of me and my truck when I really needed help and I feel they treated me honestly and did a good job. Thanks guys.

I don t usually leave comments when I rate, but these guys deserve it. My truck failed a safety inspection from the LA VPC and I was turned away. I had to get my E-Brake adjusted. I called Mario s Auto and explained to them my situation and that I was scheduled to fly out of the country the next morning. They told me to swing by and so I did. When I got there, they were very friendly and very helpful. They understood exactly what I was going through. They told me they had a big job coming out of that VPC once before. They were able to get that particular car up to code for VPC to deliver it. The coolest part about that story is, the owner was in Hawaii. That customer contacted them via phone and they made it happen. Just like how they made it happen for me. These guys will help their customers as much as they can. Family owned and family operated. When I got to the shop, they stopped what they were doing and they fixed my truck. I would ve paid more and waited longer at another shop. I totally recommend this shop!
