P&W Auto Service

Great service all around, friendly as can be as well. Thanks for helping me out Dennis.

Brought my 2002 Honda Accord in for a check a check engine light. Dennis did an excellent job on letting know exactly what my vehicle needed and what he recommends. Dennis is very honest and fixed my vehicle. My car needed a new timing belt and water pump as well as some driving belts. Dennis is the only mechanic that I trust with my car.

Fast and good services is not easy to find. P&W auto service smoke check is one of the best smoke check in La county. Dennis is the best, he not try to sell you anymore than just what you want done. All services fee and charges are posted. Highly recommended

Took my car in for brakes great friendly service. Time efficient. Took care of my car right away. Reasonably priced. Will definitely be back and will recommend family & friends!

hello my friends, this is Dennis. Im part owner/​manager for P&W AUTO SERVICE. just leaving a review to inform all of our Unilocal customers that we now also do smog test and repair. so if we can help you with passing smog test or repairing your vehicle. give us a call, we would love to hear from you. better yet, come on down. we would love to see you. :) thank you all once again for your great reviews. we highly appreciate it.

Went to Dennis for a check up on my car. After fixing the problem my car had. He helped me out a lot with other issues the car had that I had never payed attention to. Now I know to take care of my car and take it it for service when needed

Do not use this business, they are scammers. Had an engine and transmission rebuilt, and it didn’t drive new. So I was like hmmm … Too it to another location to double check his work and when they opened the top end, we realized he pressure washed and painted the engine and changed the gaskets. He never rebuilt it or machined it or put new parts hahaha we got burned. Basically the $ 1,000 of parts to send the engine to get machined he pocketed plus the $ 800 labor. Pretty funny that someone would actually be so low and cheesy like that, same thing to the transmission, he tuned it up and painted it but charged me for a full rebuild and told me he rebuilt it. Wow I was pretty upset for a long time but now it’s funny I guess. Argued with him forever about it but he wouldn’t fix a thing or return any money, I could’ve taken him to court but didn’t get around to it.

What can I say about P&W auto service. Nothing but top notch mechanics. Who are people that are willing to work with you and get you back on the road. And trust me when I say they’re willing to work with you. I mean they are willing to work with you. I’ve been going there for years now. The service has always been great. I could think of no other place to go to. Then P&W auto’s. Most places, tell you that they can fix it for you. But you will need this and this. At P&W they will only tell you what you need when you needed. This is a place you can always trust. And if you can’t believe me, then come on in and see.

Great customer service, there are only 3 mechanics working so it can take a while to get your car repaired but it is well worth the wait. Reasonable prices too. And they take the time to go through the list of what they fixed/​worked on with you.

The owner Al was really nice and explained it all in detail to me.
$ 400 later i had my oil, filter and rear shock changed.
I just didn’t like that I had to wait until 10 am the next morning to get my car back when I dropped it off at 11am for inspection.

Great service, the owner Al is very professional and polite. I would highly recommend this place.

my brakes failed me one night. i had the car towed to my place and realized that between my brakes not working and being too cheap to splurge on the AAA plus membership, that i was regulated to going somewhere within a 7 mile tow radius. i remembered passing p&w on a walk one day and decided to give them a ring.
now, i have an 1985 bmw and most places i had called prior to the brakes failing would turn me down because of the age. not so with p&w! the owner, al alcocer, had great phone etiquette which says a lot because let’s face it, most mechanics have ZERO social skills. when i had the car towed in he gave me his 100% attention, was polite, took notes, asked questions, had a general great attitude and positive sense of being… not only that but he gave me a ride to the bus stop so i could PT it into work!
he went over my laundry list of car concerns and addressed them with lots of explanation and patience. i appreciated that he wanted me to understand what was going on as opposed to just saying «it’s done.» the work was done in a timely manner, he suggested ways in which i could be safer, kept me abreast of other problems that would also need attention in due time and before i knew it, i was back on the road with a car that felt FAR BETTER than when i had taken it in.
i will definitely be a loyal patron of p&w and recommend them to anyone he needs some car lovin’ and carducation!
