Loyd is the most honest and mechanic around. The prices are honest and he stands by his work. I also love that it is a family run business.

Honest, quality service from an Asian-owned small family business! I've had my Ford Econoline serviced here about 4 times now, and Lloyd is my go-to mechanic in the East Bay for his fast service time, honest pricing, and high skill. I've had service as small as an oil change and as large as my power steering completely failing, and he could do it all. Can't recommend the place more!

Family owned, I came here to change a sensor for my tires and they helped me most importantly the service was quick and I loved how everyone is working together to get the customer in and out. Thank you!

Be careful. This used to be a reliable place. Now they'll tell you 1 price and when it's all said & done it's a completely different higher price. I wouldn't recommend coming here.

Look no further for all your car needs! I came to George in 2018 for a clutch replacement and he did it for the best price and, of course, best service. 5 years later, my clutch is still fantastic. I cannot thank George enough!

I was attempting to do 0 stars it would not allow I'm an older female I was referred to this place by family!! I dropped my car off there feb 8, 2023 for a inspection coil replacement received my car back in worse condition than I dropped it off in with 30 extra miles on it and out of gas this is not okay!! They also tried to price gouge me because I was not knowledgeable about cars the wife said if anything needed repair over what I agreed to I would be contacted I called about my car and she attempted to charge me an extra 394$ above what we discussed for otherr coils the mechanich replaced so he says using his shop warranty!! It's a shame that people will try to take advantage of anyone not knowledgeable about cars and that they think have no man with them or backup!!! This business should not be allowed to do this to me or any other female and for the wife/receptionist she should be ashamed of herself she was dodging me and putting her husband on the phone after lying trying to charge me for other so called repairs which she said ar the time of our agreement she she would call to get my permission for Im calling the better business bureau this is unreal and is a deterrence for me to trust repairs done on my own!! Truly sad and disgusted!!!

A great family owned business One of the most affordable, trustworthy and knowledgeable mechanics I know of in the Bay Area. They will work on European makes, and will fix nearly anything that is in need of repair. I ve been taking vehicles here for years and am grateful for all of their outstanding work

Still our go-to car mechanic for our BMW. Now it's my son (next generation) who is a loyal customer. Loy has been taking care of our 650 since the day it run out of warranty until now that I've given it to my son. Very fair in pricing but sometimes they get so busy so you should make sure to make an appointment or discuss your situation with them. I wish they can also do alignment for our newly added Tesla, maybe in the future, can't wait. Highly recommended for any type of car.Services: Tires, Steering & suspension repair, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Brakes

We've taken our vehicles here for many years of wonderful service. Lloyd (the owner) is honest and up front about options for repairs, often recommending reasonably priced alternatives. They complete the work in the agreed upon time frame and keep our vehicles working well.

Was quoted $1500+ at the dealership for all the maintenance work that needed to be done. Paid George only 20% of that for the same job, and he did it in a very timely manner! He was done in less than 3hrs! I expected the car will be in service for the whole day! Great customer service, too!Services: Air & cabin filter replacement, Brakes, Oil changeServices: Air & cabin filter replacement, Brakes, Oil change

A family run place that is straight forward on how they deal with their customers. Let's face it, we would prefer not to spend money on repairs, but when we do, we want someone that does their job correctly and is trustworthy when they do it. This is exactly what I experienced here at George's. As a heads up, like some small auto repair garages, there is little extra room to park your car, which can be a hassle, but that's also a good sign that people want to do business with them.

Been coming here 20 years. Honest, hard-working and good prices. And if you're real nice, they might give you a ride back home. Don't quote me on it

I am very happy to find Lloyd. It is so hard to find honest and friendly mechanic these days. I've never had issue with his work and always satisfied with him and his wifes customers service. He is very honest with cost. He will never over charge you. I have referred few of my friends. Same results...

Lloyd is honest, skilled, and FAST! His prices are better than anywhere else. He almost always fixes a problem for you right away, within a day. When other places say no to a problem, or it's super expensive, Lloyd says yes, and he does it so reasonably priced you almost faint. I cannot say enough nice things about George's Automotive. I was referred there by a friend years ago, and I have referred my friends erver since.

Lloyd worked on a couple of cars that I owned. The last repair was costly but was nowhere close to what I would've been charged if I took my car to the dealership. I was quoted a max amount of $2,000 but Lloyd was able to do the repair for $900. He recently worked on my cousin's car. She was quoted almost $600 at PepBoys. Lloyd did her repair for 1/2 the cost. If you want a great mechanic with honest and reasonable prices, take your vehicle to George's Automotive. You won't regret it!

They were great my car tire popped and I was able to leave my vehicle there go get my spare at home in different city and they put it on for low cost $35. Spare no rim changed it for me and everything they did a great job. I recommend going there definitely.

Went in to have trans checked and possible replacement. Next day I was told that I should wait until the problem was to a point he wouldnotice it. He also said he could change but he would rather wait till it really needed it. Why spend the money until it was needed.He could have taken my money but didn't. Honest man. Will take my car there and highly recommend jim

Great service! For once I didn't feel like I was being over charged or ripped off because I am a woman. Each repair was explained in detailed and I was given information on which repairs were needed immediately and what repairs could be deferred. Very professional yet personable.
