Fremont & Purdon Automotive Group

It is beyond valuable to have a car repair place you can trust! I am so incredibly happy that I found these guys. I know that my car — which means me and my kids — are safe and well taken care of by the mechanics at Fremont & Purdon.

Steve and Eddie are very professional, both in person and on the phone–
And they do good work with reasonable prices. All the recent certifications on the wall inspire confidence.

Please review your policy with Tirerack, you cannot misrepresent your shop as an authorized installer and then try to pawn the service off to another store. If your shop does provide rides, maybe you should promote that better rather than keeping that information in your back pocket in cases like this and please note I mentioned multiple times that I’ll be getting picked up from Über to go into my office that isn’t very far away (I was never offered a complementary lift). Lastly, if I’m going to leave my car with you for 2.5 hours unsupervised, why would I talk down to you and risk anything bad happening? In my 25 years of getting cars serviced, I’ve never had anyone act like that and maybe it would be prudent for the parking lot a bit better organized.

I have been coming here for several years, and Steve has always been great with the service, regardless of what it is. I usually bring my car in for an oil change, but I have had my breaks done, my tires replaced, even the windshield wipers and I have never had an issue. Steve has always been upfront with the pricing and would let me know how much time to expect things to get fixed. I really like coming here as it is close to home and and Steve is always professional. If an estimate is more than what I originally authorized, Steve always calls to let me know what the additional cost is. I have recommended this shop to my friends and I am happy with their service!

Work has always been quick and fairly priced. Got a flat tire recently and they patched it in about 10 minutes for no charge.
Eddie at the front desk is always friendly and well informed.

Went there for the dreaded smog check and wasn’t sure how long I was going to have to wait at 3:30 pm. They saw immediately and got straight to work getting my info and started on my car. I have to say, that their office waiting room and bathroom were one of the cleanest service area places that I’ve ever seen. The attendant and mechanic were both professional, friendly and fast. My smog check didn’t take that long but after about 15 min the mechanic came to tell me there’d been a slight problem. He discovered that during a previous car check or something, the fuse that connects the power converter to do the smog check, etc was broken. He replaced and just now got the smog machine to start working. He apologized for the delay and then was done in like another 10 minutes. Super fast and didn’t even charge me for replacing the fuse. The prices were affordable and I left satisfied with my smog check passed with great service. I felt comfortable enough that they were honest and reliable that I’m willing to take my car here in the future for other services!

Owner is a sweetheart! I came in Christmas eve with 2 flat tires, and the owner insisted the repair was on the house even though I insisted on paying (merry xmas!)

Came here for an estimate and Sergio Jabourian (the one who gave me the estimate) was very quick, NICE, and he even gave me a small discount.
Dont know if they gave me the best price yet… Still comparing with other shops but will keep you all posted.

We have been using Fremont & Purdon for about the past 15 years to service our cars. We have been extremely pleased with all aspects of their operation – customer service, car knowledge, pricing, dependability, and turnaround time. They often have provided us with quality assistance on very short notice. They have my trust and my full recommendation. Steve and Eddie are top notch!

Steve came highly recommended to me by a friend, I had a very positive experience. I plan to go back any time I have car trouble. Thanks!

Family and I have been coming here for years with no real complaints. For some services it can be a bit on the pricey side, I have to be honest. However, they are timely, the owner is very mannerable and runs a decent business. I’ve never been displeased with the service.

This is not the cheapest shop in town, but they get the job done right. I’ve been taking my car here for years… and my wife’s car and my kids’ cars… these guys are reliable, personable and thorough…

If there was a 7 star option, they’d get it.
Reliable, honest, hard-​working, and skillful. I take my cars there from the South Bay, and I couldn’t be more pleased with their service. Ask for Steve and he will take amazing care of you and your car without any BS, upselling, or nonsense.

I found F&P online when I first moved into the area. In over four years, I’ve had no reason to change at all. I’ve used this repair shop many times and work is always done well, as promised, and fairly priced. The staff here has always been friendly, courteous, and everything done has been explained clearly. I feel very certain, from all of my various experiences, that if I had any issues with work done, that everything would be done to correct it to ensure my satisfaction and return visit.
The waiting room is very clean and pleasant.
I’ve dealt with dishonest mechanics in the past and so my guard is up, but I’m happy to say I’ve been very happy using this business.

I was in Southern CA to drop of my sister at college, and my Acura TL started overheating. I added coolant and but this didn’t fix the problem, so I took it to the first garage I found. Steve (the owner) was very professional, and his staff was great also. It ended up being a cracked radiator tank, they got it fixed, and me back on the road the same day. Overall a very positive experience. I would recommend this garage to a friend.

This is a certified CA Star Test and Repair station, though it didn’t show up that way when I searched the term in the Unilocal.I chose Fremont after comparing prices for smog diagnostic and testing with other Star stations — much more reasonable. Steve (owner, 23 years) was knowledgeable and seemed friendly… BUT… what really pisses me off (in retrospect) is that he offered to buy my car for $ 500, when he knew full well that I could get $ 1,500 by selling my car to the state through CA’s Bureau of Auto Repairs CAP program (which, unlike Fremont, is highly recommended).

I am having an oil change today. Steve has been taking care of my cars for several years. I recently had some major engine work done and they did a good job. I have also recommended them. They are friendly and respectful and explain everything they are going to do before the work is done. They give 10% discount for AAA members which I use. I’ll be back again for my next oil change.

THIS PLACE IS HORRIBLE!
DON’T EVER BRING YOUR CARS HERE FOR ANYTHING!
This place used to be ok, but their service is AWEFUL! Their services are OVERPRICED, they don’t have the vehicles ready at their promised time, and the quality of work has also decreased. I have taken my cars to this shop over the years and their service has gotten worse and worse. Don’t be charmed by the owner’s smile. If you want to spend this kind of money, go to a dealer.

Wow, I am relieved I found this place! Great service at an affordable price, and honest to boot!
Not only will I be back, I am definitely recommending to my friends.

Definitely, a trustworthy shop that gives you the exact low down on what you need and if they find anything of concern. I declined a few of the repairs that they found, which I knew my car needed before I took it in. I asked for a quote on the work and declined knowing that I could get better pricing elsewhere. They were genuinely not bitter, nor pushy to start work on their recommendations.
Great prices for smog check and oil changes — $ 25 each before tax. Not many places that will beat those prices for either. For these services alone, I’ll come back, though still shop around for any future car repairs.
