Hand down! Rex and his team is our local OC fave repair shop - very attentive, professional and obviously know their automotive stuff. Very transparent and honest with the service and super competitive pricing - characters which are not so not easy to find these days.Thank you for the awesome service and all the recommendations!

This review is way overdue. My husband and I have been taking our cars here for a few years now. We won't go anywhere else because Rex and his team are truly the best. They're professional, honest, caring, efficient and flexible. We highly recommend for all your car services!

I used to live in Seal Beach and grew up right next to this shop when it was originally on the corner of Main and PCH - they have been repairing the cars of family and friends for more than 40 years. Moving to a new location didn't change the quality or care of their work - they are excellent, honest, and reliable. The only reason I've ever gone elsewhere was convenience - I moved out of Seal Beach and they are not open Saturdays as some chains are. Going elsewhere was to my detriment though as the chain I went to has led to nothing but issues. Rex and his team of mechanics have been trying to rectify the damage caused by the other shop, and rather than continue to chase problems around my car, he told me openly and honestly that I should go to the Chevrolet dealer's service department as they would be experts on my engine and able to better determine the root cause. He provided me with paperwork to take informing them of what his team had found as well as what they believed the actual issue to be. The prices here are fair, they do not advise you to get unnecessary work, and they will be open if they are unable to help and give you the best advice they have on what to do next. There's a reason they are one of the few 5 star mechanic shops and it is well deserved. I will no longer be taking my car anywhere else unless they recommend it.

I went to Rex with an engine leak. They couldn't fix it as it was too large of project for their garage size and customer volume, but he was so helpful in helping me diagnose and pointing me in the right direction. One of the very few mechanics who was proactive, kind, transparent and legit. I will be 100% coming back here for the appropriate fixes!

Fair prices, expert advice, quick work and friendly service. I was advised by a friend when I mentioned I had a screw in my tire. They said, "just go to 16th street when they open @8. They'll have you out by 8:30." They were right. Highly recommend this service center.
