I took my truck here to have my headlights adjusted by their state certified light adjuster , according to the signs . When he came out to look at it he said he's never seen an LED conversion done on a vehicle . He kept poking at it until I told him to stop poking it you're gonna break it . He said he can only help me if I pull out my conversion and put in his lights , non led . STATE CERTIFIED LIGHT ADJUSTER. Never even seen an LED conversion . Unbelievable . Take your sign down .

Honest, great work. Leo's team worked on my Jeep a while back. Great work!I recently took in my 1986 Chevy truck. Leo's team did a valve job and rebuilt the carburetor. Tuned it up. Replaced spark plugs and wires among other things. My truck runs great! The price was on point.

If I could give it negative stars I would. My mechanic sent my car here for a brake line inspection and they said I had an abs issue. I took it to another shop and they said I don't even have an abs. I went back to Leo's to ask about the abs issue when other mechanics say it doesn't exist. He yelled at me and told me I wasn't a customer when I have the receipt in my hand. He kicked me out of the shop and called the cops. When the cops came he LIED and said the shop only did smog checks when I literally have a receipt. I just want answers about my car.

Took my car there this past Saturday because it was stalling. They said I needed a new battery so I had it replaced for over $400. The next day after i got my car out the shop it began to stall again. I called the shop for some insight but got nowhere. The worker named Cruz told me to bring my car back in but they act like it s so easy to just call a tow truck and dish out over $400. I m just disappointed as I have been getting my oil changed here for a while now and thought they were good people.

I came here to get my brakes checked out. Turns out I needed to replace the front pads and rotors. I was very glad that they were able to do it on the spot. Junior was cordial and professional. Leo closed me out but I didn't interact much with him. I'll definitely be coming back.

Leo loves his pc monitor. He constently stared at it while I was there. Also, after he replaced the turning signal switch, I noticed that the steering wheel was 45� off center. He tried to charge me extra $$$ to alien it.The steering wheel was centered when I brought it in. Another time, I walked into the shop's lobby. No one was there so I sat down and waited for someone to help me. Finally, while waiting in the lobby, I called the shop. He picked up in another room and said, "l see you." Then I saw a camera on the counter. He didn't come out to greet me. Another customer came in after me. Then, he came out of his office to help her first. Also, Leo is very cold and walkes away while I'm trying to talk to him. (Do not recommend)

Very pleasant experience.Other local mechanics couldn t get to us for a week, Leo s had us fixed up in 2hrs.They described what the problem was and didn t try to up-sell us.

Leo and his staff of mechanics are very thorough and do an excellent job. He is reasonably priced. He helped diagnose a bad computer on my Mustang and replaced it at a reasonable price. I highly recommend them.Service: Engine repairService: Engine repair

I've trusted Leo with my vehicles for over two decades and will continue to do so; we've literally watched each other's kids grow up!It's really beautiful to see how his family has grown and now they work alongside him, truly a family-run business.He provides the same quality service and affordable pricing that he always has.Thanks again, you and the team are the best!

My family has been coming here for years to get work done on the cars. Leo and Jr. always take good care of us. Recently brought my minivan in for work (engine issues) on a Monday around 11 a.m. and got it back by 4 same day. Pricing is always better than I expect it to be. 5 Service: Auto engine diagnosticService: Auto engine diagnostic

Excellent customer service. Friendly and the quality of services was perfect. My car runs and sounds great. The owner Leo communicates every step of the problem with your car. The shop is very clean, smells great and a great location just in case you need to leave your car and go walk to get food, coffee or shop. i would most definitely recommend Leo's auto repair to firends, family and co-workers. Thank you Leo and Leo Jr. you guys are the best

I had my catalytic converter stolen, Leo's took care of me and built a good looking cage around the new one, they also etched my license plate into the cat. It was quick and thorough, 10/10

Cool little respectful place that has a lot of respectful staff it's really hard to get in and out of there so you have to carefully plan out a timed entrance into the driveway due to busy PCH being right in front of their shop entrance. Other than that everyone in there is totally helpful and willing to help you get your ignition interlock in and maybe even crack a few jokes to let you know that it's not the end of the world I appreciate them being my guys for this whole silly situation but I am very thankful to be driving legally again

Leo s is a classic family operated shop. It s super clean, well organized and efficient. We called the day of for our brakes and they got us in with no wait and we were done in an hour. I would highly recommend this place, they were also very affordable.

Every exchange is important, from day one to the last, and all your employees represent your brand. Ask your employees how they communicated with a client as I was trying to leave, on what as you know is a complicated access.Up to now I was happy with the service and envisioned transfering my scheduled maintenance to your shop, but today you lost a client. Feel free to call me if you feel I am being unfair.Furthermore I will follow up with the company you mentioned as I believe this is a viloation of privacy. Thank you for making this easier

I took my vehicle to Leo s after my check engine light came on. I was charged $130 for diagnostic testing even though I gave him a copy of the printout from AutoZone showing the codes read on the computer. He then quoted me a total of about $550 to repair. I authorized the repairs and was told my car would be ready the following day. The next day (Friday) I didn t receive a call saying my car was done. I called on Saturday and was told my car was done and he forgot to call me. I picked my car up and drove it about 1.5 miles home. By time I got home my engine light was back on. I had to go to work so I parked my car and didn t drive it until taking it back to Leo s on Monday. Leo s son said I would need to pay another $130 diagnostic test fee (even though they instantly read the codes from my car s computer). I refused to pay anymore and demanded they return my car and keys to me. The son then got belligerent and began yelling. He said the engine light wasn t on (even though it was on when he was able to read the codes). They obviously reset the computer to clear the codes. I finally got my car and left.NEVER go to this business. They are beyond shady. They are overpriced, slow, and complete liars. They will do everything they can to take advantage of people. They also do not care about their customers. The son was yelling and making a complete fool of himself to the point where a person walking on the sidewalk heard and recommended a better mechanic to me.AVOID AT ALL COST!!!!!Update to owner response:He is attempting to sound sincere and understanding. However, in reality he is lying. Not to mention he did not explain anything to me. He literally yelled while standing outside the door. He is merely trying to sound semi-professional now that his nonsense has been put online.The engine light was still on when he got in my car. So he is already lying in his response. He is correct that the codes were different, but he fails to mention the codes the second time were due to the solenoid that he supposedly fixed the first time.I don t merely see an engine light come on. I m not an idiot. I have the intelligence to have the codes read prior to taking my car to a mechanic. Therefore, it was on for more than one drive cycle. Lastly, a car s computer doesn t decide to turn the light on. The light comes on when the computer detects an error. Knowing this mechanic thinks a computer randomly turns on the engine light says a lot about his lack of mechanical skills.Services: General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic, Engine repair

First and for most i love this place because it is the cleanest auto repair shop i have ever been to. the people working there are very friendly, if you do not understand what is going on with your car they will go out of their way to let you know and explain to you in detail everything. Personally as a female i am looking for a clean safe environment to take my car. i felt that the people at Leo's Auto Repair did a great job on my car! i would definately recomend them!

This shop is just about taking advantage of people that required mandatory services. I have a breathlizer in my car and other shops that I've used to reset my device have charged me $20 dollars for service, this places charges $50 dollars, unbelievable and the owners excuse, doing business in Lomita is much more expensive then San Pedro. Give me a break just another Jerk trying to take advantage of people that must complete what is required of us. And on top of that the $75 dollar fee Intoxicalock charges you. This is RIDICULOUS

This is the worst repair shop I have ever dealt with. The owner Leo is very unprofessional. He does not care if his customers unsatisfied with the quality of his work. After countless botched "repairs" he has decided to no longer honor his warrantee or word. Please do yourself a favor and say far away from this "repair shop".
