My hubby's was in a care center right. I needed to get some service done on my car but didn't have anyone available who could pick me up or take me back to pick up the car. I recalled getting a tire repaired here previously. The staff members had been very kind and had given me a ride home and back to pick up my car. So, I decided to give them a try and get the needed tune-up and shocks service. Well, the service was GREAT! True to their word, they were timely and called when my car was ready. And, once again, they picked me up to get my car. It's been a few weeks, and my car is running great. This place is a "keeper." Their staff is exceptional.

Ben and his crew do very good work at reasonable prices. An honest, competent mechanic. No upsell. He also works on my two classic cars.

I live within the area. I initially called for a oil change, they were close enough for me to be able to drop my car off and go home to work, but my car ended having a battery light on the day before I was scheduled to go in. When I drove in, I was greeted by Ben himself, who was friendly and super knowledgeable... and assured me he would just call me an hour later to give me a rough estimate of the cost. Surely, he followed thru. He changed my oil, gave me a price for an alternator (the reason my battery lite was on), even drove it around and found that the front wheel hub was messed up (I knew about this but didn't want to spend the money quiet yet to fix it) but told me it was the reason why I needed new tires. I spoke to friend who works at the Ford dealership and he told me the price is incredibly reasonable and to get it done. He really got me back my car within 24 hours and throughly checked out my vehicle. He even offered a drop off and pick up if localTo the area and knowing I didn't have another car, he was willing to lend me one! It's soooooo nice to have someone who genuinely is kind, and a honest small business man. I will forever be a customer. Thanks Ben and his mechanics!

I went in to get a smog check and before even looking at my car John started saying my cars needs some work on it before he even did the smog check. My car is a 2010 Camry and runs great. So I was curious and asked how much would these repairs he recommends cost? He said between $500 to $1200! This guy must think people in this upper middle class area are nothing but suckers! I told him I will think about it and walked out, went to a different station located in Los alamitos and the guys there got me in and out in 5 friggin minutes!!!!Moral of this story.Don't go to this guy if you want fast service.Don't go to this guy is unless you want to be sold stuff you don't need.Don't go to this guy if you are treading this post. You are welcome.

Looks like your shop is pretty average based on your whopping 5 reviews Ben. Don't buy a car from this guy. The famous words of Eric Cartman from south park states "I like to be wined and dined before i've been fucked". So Ben, Im wondering if you would be willing to take me out to a nice dinner and a glass of wine after you sold me a car with a cracked engine block and a blown head gasket. When i first got the code, a few days after I bought the car from him, I go and change the spark plugs, with no prevail of getting rid of the code. So I took it into a few shops to see what was really going on. Turns out this dude sold me a car that had a repair cost worth much more than the value of the car. Not to mention him lying to us about the mileage. I am aware that owners of shops like to buy cars from their customers, fix them up and sell them. But Ben, to stay away from people knowing about the shady shit you do, maybe you should actually fix them. So Ben, let me know what time and day works best for you to take me out to a nice dinner.

John worked the desk while Ben and his team worked the garage. I came in for a smog test during lunch and it was completed in less than 1/2 hour. Great vibes and good people here. Thanks John and the technicians at Ben's Auto Repair!

Great team. I've taken a couple vehicles here for a variety of services. They've always gone above and beyond the work and communication. Most recently I got a simple smog check done. In and out in 10mins (maybe 11).Service: Smog certification

Ben's Seal Beach Auto Repair recommendation. I had the top radiator hose connection break. I checked online for parts costs and labor costs to see if I was going to replace it myself. After looking at a YouTube how-to I decided to take it to a mechanic.I thought I'd give the new mechanic at the Chevron gas station near me in College Park East, a try. (It's important to note, they are not the same as the old ones from a couple years back. The old ones tried to rip me off recommending an unneeded repair after I got a smog check.)I went there late morning and asked for a quote. The quote I was given was dead on what I expected, and far lower than the auto dealer would charge. I stated I would like to proceed with the repair and offered to put down a deposit so he could order the parts. He said no need for a deposit. He ordered the parts and called me within 1 1/2 hours. I took my car in at 2 PM the same day and had it back by 4 PM. Everything has been working great.They let me know about a small oil leak but did not pressure me to get it repaired. They were friendly and clearly experienced mechanics. At his point I would definitely recommend them.

Shoutout to John who did the work for me, he was especially friendly and kind all the way through. If you need a quick and easy smog check at a reasonable price, look no further!

My 1999 Volvo would not pass smog inspection for almost a year, even after the catalytic converter and O2 sensors were replaced by another shop.Ben repaired my car and in one day it finally passed inspection!He is a miracle worker!Services: Smog certification
