AKR Auto Repair

I have brought all my families cars to Kevin for repairs as long as we’ve lived in Whittier. He always is fair and honest and does what he says he will do. I appreciate his integrity and will continue to use his services and recommend him to anyone else looking for an honest repair facility.

It’s really hard to find a good and honest mechanic, this place is it! I always bring my vehicles here and know I won’t get ripped off. The prices are reasonable and the work is done right the first time. You are never pressured on purchasing anything. Thanks Kevin

came in for a brake inspection today. Met Kevin and was very professional. Told me what the problem was. Prices very reasonable. Did a great job on my brakes. AKR auto repair just got a new customer!

KR muffler is a decent shop; I had been coming here since I learned how to drive, since when it was cool to lower cars and have loud exhausts. KR muffler is a decent shop in the area, though they are a little bit overpriced at times compared to other shops I’ve found.
Apart from my experience, my parents mentioned to me that they were ripped off for a repair in the past and were given a hard time by the owner. I guess it probably depends on each shop’s specialty on what you need repaired. I’ve only been here for welding and muffler service.
Convenience-​wise, I think they’re a good local shop in Whittier if you need muffler service and welding. Labor is $ 69/​hr and pricing for parts can be a bit more expensive, so you might also consider shopping around.

My family has been coming to a AKR auto repair for the last 20+ years. My grandfather came here, my mother came here and now I come here. I have received the best in auto repair and care from this establishment. This is one of the best places in which to get your car repaired for the least amount of money.
Your car will be done right the first time and Kevin and his mechanics will give you the lowest bottom line price of anyplace else that I found. If you get hungry there is a McDonald’s that is catty corner to the mechanic shop. Kevin is a master mechanic so he has worked on all types of cars that I’ve seen: domestics and foreign. So, if you have any type of car that is any type of trouble, do yourself a favor and come to AKR auto repair!

I called to inquire about a BMW they have for sale. I asked the guy the typical questions any potential buyer would ask: price, mileage, etc. Instead, he says, «What’s there to say? It’s a car. Runs well. What more do you want?» When I asked whether the title on the car was clean or salvage title, he got angry and started to give off sarcastic comments. Now I’m saying to myself, «what is wrong with this guy? I’m simply calling about a car he wants to sell. I haven’t been rude to him, but more so polite.» I kept my cool and directed the conversation about any previous accidents the car may have had. All of sudden, he lost it and starts cussing me out. Every other word he spewed out was «F**K that & F**K this and F**K you! Come over here, I’ll kick your ass». «Ha ha funny», I said. «I’ll be right there» That’s when he hung up. LOL. I guess the guy couldn’t handle my questions, and showed his ugly, ghetto side. Not a smart guy at all.
After all this, can you imagine having to deal with these type of business people? Why put yourself in that situation? Is this is the type of sleaze you wanna trust your car repairs to?

I called Kevin just before lunch on a Friday to see if he could put a Magnaflow muffler on my truck. I expected he’d say he was busy and have me waiting till next week sometime. He said he could fit me in right away so I drove over to KR and was back on my way with my nice new muffler in under an hour. Great service and a great price too I thought. Thanks! Matt

I take my car to Akr auto repair all the time. The service is fast, reliable and customer service is excellent. No job too big or too small for them. Great Atmosphere. All around great experience. Lowest price in Whitter. I am completely satisfied with this business. Five Stars…

Affordable. I’ve been here many times for repairs, and the owner is always honest, gives upfront estimates & is willing to work quickly. He’ll make calls to dealer parts, & have your car ready soon. In fact I need to go soon to diagnose my check engine light…
