Direct Auto Service Center

What a great place. the staff is very honest and understanding. I brought my car in for a service light and they took me in very quickly. when I told them I had to return to work the owner of the shop offered to drive me himself. Within 2 hours my car was repaired. They offered to keep the car until I was either on break or off of work. The shop then sent someone to pick me up. I just found my new service center.

I had to get a car window repaired asap! We called this number and they were able to repair it the next day! Jack helped us out he was super friendly and provided fast service.
He was honest and was able to work out a convenient time. Definitely recommend giving Jack a call if you need a car window repaired asap!
It took about 40 minutes to repair.
Thanks Jack!

Hallelujah!!! I finally found a mechanic who is honest with me and doesn’t twist things up to charge more. Very fast, honest and reliable service. Thanks Nick and Artem! Will recommend direct auto to everyone!

This place did the best repair ever. my clutch feels way smoother then when I originally got the car… highly recommend this place… inexpensive, timely and friendly auto repair A+

Nick is a great man. Perhaps I didn’t manage the relationship well and I’ve worn out my welcome. But when my car keeps breaking down like a snow ball effect since I’ve first come in, I have to start looking elsewhere. Would still recommend if you’re in a pinch with money and have a lot of time for repair work. I’m the original owner of my 2002 VW Golf, Mk4 ALH TDI.

Nick and John are lifesavers.
My car decided to turn off at the end of a drive-​thru. My friend and I had to push the car and were stranded in the middle of a street. It seemed like there was a problem with the alternator, which would probably take a day or two and $ 500+ to fix. This was terrible news as we were on a tight budget and on the way to Vegas that evening!
John came to the rescue and referred us to Nick’s shop. When he realized that we would be homeless if we had to wait another day for the repair to be done, Nick started troubleshooting right away. Mind you, he was already closing up his shop when he got the call from John, so he stayed just to help us out. After about an hour or so, the engine miraculously started. It ended up being a minor problem that could be fixed after I got home from Vegas. Nick didn’t hassle us or twist it around like most mechanics do. It’s a rare sight for a shop to not take advantage of its customers. We were blown away by their kindness and honesty… and drove to Vegas through the night safe and sound!
A huge thanks to Nick and John, for being honest, compassionate and comforting. I wish I could’ve paid Nick more for his time. I almost cried when John called me the next day to check if we got to Vegas safely. How many tow truck drivers care that genuinely? I’m definitely going to tell everyone I know in LA to go to Nick!

Got referred to Direct Auto Service Center by a tow truck driver who guaranteed me they would have the best price in the area — he was right! The mechanic (and maybe owner?) Nick was able to identify the problem right away… blown water pump. Thankfully, I knew that coming in and was grateful that he didn’t try to press me into more work/​parts/​services in any way. Got a new water pump, thermostat, and serp belt for ~$ 150 less than the other shops I talked to in the area, and everything was fixed within 2 hours of my arrival at the shop.
Amazing and honest mechanic/​shop. Will definitely be back.

Artem and Nick have always diagnosed my vehicles problems to present date with very fare service charge when needed. I really can’t complain. Direct Auto Service Center is very clean and so is their work. I would give 5 Stars for combined effort.

I have been here and get a very high professional specialists and good reasonable prices. Thank you for high level services. Thank you Nick.

All I can say is YES!!! Finally found the right mechanic shop for my business. I have a plumbing and electrical service company and we have 15 trucks combined which needs maintenance often an could not find an honest mechanic with the experience and knowledge to diagnose problems. Now I can stop searching I came across to a friend of mine who after hearing of my complaints referred me to Direct Auto in Glendale. I have to say thanks friend for pointing me to the right direction Direct Auto is the way to go. Service and honesty is their policy. Thanks again Nick you have me as customer for good.

I finely found honest mechanic. Thanks god. very good people.

I came for a minor issue for my car on a Friday. I was told that they could get it done by late Saturday, «no problem». It took them until late Wednesday to get it done. I had to call daily to get the status for my car. It was a complete mistake to have taken my car here.

I called this place to get a quote on how much they charge to do a Smog Check, and they informed me that they do not do Smog checks. Just FYI.
