A1 Automotive & Smog

Always great attitude and customer service. Very honest! Love coming here! And they work on American cars as well!

They’re awesome!!! Always taking good are of my car, prices are very reasonable. They don’t try to cheat you to make more money.

Clean, simple, fast and friendly customer service! Will be back for sure.

I have a natural distrust of mechanic shops and they are normally proved correct. I have been coming to A1 for many years and they have treated me great. No up sell trustworthy, great fair prices. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Love this place! Friendly mechanics Jack and Harry. Fast service. Oil changes for $ 30. Pepe’s Burrito Joint next door.

Super affordable. Great customer service. My smog took only 10 mins. The staff are extremely nice and helpful. I can’t get over how affordable they are for such great service on almost anything from fuel injection to smog to oil change. 5 star rating for sure! I’m a satisfied customer that’s coming back for sure.

Great price for a smog! ($ 35) and great service! I was satisfied with their service. I almost went to the gas station down the street, but they charge me $ 50. So I decided to call this location and he told me was $ 35. They were nice, and very friendly. I would recommend them to anyone!

Friendly and fast service. Was in and out within about 30 mins for an oil change. Drove in and saw some fancy cars and thought to myself this might be an expensive place. Turns out $ 25 for semi syn oil change. I am a happy customer!

I went in here just to Chang e the alternator and not only did they satisfy my needs but they gave me a very fair price !! As oppose to other m shops !!
Plus they did the job within an hour and a half. I will definitely come back to this location :)

Harry has performed service on my Lotus Exige a few times. Every time he is great. The last time I was having the oil changed, transmission fluid, and exhaust installed. I arrived at 10:00AM on a Saturday (they were already really busy). They normally close at 12:30 but they worked all the way till a little past 1PM. They could have easily told me it wasn’t going to be ready that day but they made the extra effort to get it done. They won my loyalty.

I used to frequent their other location in San Gabriel, but this one is much closer. Harry and Jack are now here more often, and they’re usually ones I get to help me with my cars.
From basic service to some harder aftermarket installs, I have and will continue to use them for my vehicles which have been a mustang, bmw to now a gtr.
Service is great and they are very honest. I highly recommend you give them a try!

Same company as the one in San Gabriel (
), I think they rotate their crew in as well because I went in to get something fixed and I saw some familiar faces that were working here that are from the other store. Great service and good prices. That’s why I like going to these guys. This store has a lot more parking than their other location, so its easier to get in and out of even if they are busy.

Harry and his crew are awesome, I’ve been taking all my vehicles to his shop in San Gabriel (Last Tunas and Delta) for several years. Now, his new Alhambra location is even closer with larger parking lot. No one else works on my cars except A1 and I drive from Long Beach. My other friends, Lotus owners, drive from Irvine to Malibu to have Harry take care of their Lotus!
I love to support this kind of truly mom-​and-​pop honest, friendly and expertise services with extremely reasonable charges. Harry is an outstanding Certified Master Mechanic (ASE) who knows his crafts well, and equally importantly, very honest and has true concern for his customers and their vehicles. He tells what exactly what needs to be done and how much, no up-​sell — no sugar coat, no BS.
As a matter of fact, I’ll be bringing my SUV this week for a bunch of modifications and maintenance service because I know Harry would give me a great deal and get the job done right the first time.
Friendly, honest, reliable and reasonably priced services — A1 had saved me a lot of time and money ;).

2^nd location but same great service as the original! Mechanics are very knowledgeable and they aren’t afraid to take time to explain what types of services they can offer to keep your car running smooth.

A1 saved me a ton of money on my routine maintenance for my E350. I was tired of dealing with the poor service and outrageous prices of my local dealership so I decided to find a local shop on Unilocal.I’m really glad I found these guys. I will never go back to my dealership again. The mechanics at A1 are knowledgeable and their work is clean. They got everything done is a reasonable amount of time and I am very happy.
