Hooshi’s Auto Service

I found Hooshi on Unilocal as his shop is close to where I live. He worked on my 14 year old Acura about 2 years ago. He replaced the break pads and rotors which had had problems ever since I bought it some 11 years ago. It rattled and shook as I engaged the breaks.
He repaired them so well the breaks have had no issues for whatsoever for 2 years. They work perfectly now.
I have taken my other cars to him on multiple occasions and he has always given me a great diagnosis. If a job is too big (he is a one man show), he will tell me.
I have not been to any other other mechanic since (except for the job that was too big and he recommended a bigger shop which also did a great job) and have no plans to. Unless of course it’s on his recommendation. I guess he’s my PMC – Primary Care Mechanic!

Excellent service delivered with integrity. It is a one-​person shop but I’d hesitate to go anywhere else because I trust Hooshi who has been taking care of my car for years. Plus his shop is right on the bus line to downtown Oakland for easy public transportation.

Hooshi has taken care of our Lexus, Mercedes and Toyota. He is very honest and does a great job, I would highly recommend Hooshi. His rates are reasonable and he is the sweetest guy.
Thank you Hooshi you are the best.

I have had the pleasure of Hooshi working on all my cars for 23 years until my move from the Bay Area to another state. While I like where I now live, but one thing that I truely miss is having Hooshi as my car mechanic. Hooshi is very knowledgeable and an honest mechanic and one who offers quality work along with reasonable /​fair prices. Bay Area is LUCKY to have Hooshi as one of its car mechanics. Thank You Hooshi for all those years of providing an EXCELLENT service and giving me a piece of mind while driving on the Bay Area highways!

Honest, reliable, affordable, and nice mechanic. This is seriously a rare occurrence. I have only met a few car mechanics in my entire life with these attributes. Thank you Hooshi!

Professional one person shop. Great place for routine work. Will not work on cars he does not know. Honest and creative in a good way ! I would give five stars– but it sometimes hard to predict the hours.

Hi all,
I have had Hooshi take care of my cars (Mustang, Volvo, Audi) for 20 years now and I have never been disappointed on quality or price. He is without any doubt one of the most knowledgeable, committed and honest car mechanistic that you can find. I highly recommend Hooshi’s service.

I was referred to Hooshi by a good friend who’s been bringing his cars here since 1995. He was highly recommended, yet my radar remained high when I went, since I seem to have «sucker» written on my forehead when it comes to anything car related.
Turns out I had no cause for concern — Hooshi was incredible! He patiently went through each item I needed addressing, and explained potential causes and solutions for each problem. He even went through the invoice for my car’s previous service and explained what had and hadn’t been done.
I really appreciated how he strove for the most efficient solution to each of my car’s issues, and didn’t do any unnecessary work.
His shop’s location is not in the most convenient or accessible area, but the trip over here is absolutely worth the effort.
If only I could put him in my pocket…

I’ve been bringing my/​our cars to Hooshi for about five years now. He’s honest and extremely competent, and he tries to find a solution that will fit your budget. Whenever he has replaced a part, he shows me the old one and the state it was in. Highly recommended.

I’m not sure why the three «new» axles I paid for to be replaced were not actually new. I would move on…

This place claims to not tell you fake things. Yet, they mess up other parts of the car. My carpet used to be clean, now it isn’t.

Hooshi’s, located on the fringe of Glenview, is a great garage to visit when a car is ailing. It’s hard to find an honest mechanic, and that is exactly what you get here — not to mention one who has decades of experience. Only parts that need replacement will be addressed, unlike plenty of other shops that try to up-​sell additional services and repairs (some of which aren’t necessary).
