Auto repair in the United States is split between independent shops, dealership service departments and national chains. Independents handle most routine work (oil changes, brakes, tune-ups, check-engine diagnostics) at lower labor rates and often specialize in one make or in imports; dealers keep factory tools, software and warranty authority; chains sell speed and standard pricing on maintenance items. Most shops charge a diagnostic fee, credited toward the repair if you go ahead, and quote parts and labor separately. Certification matters: look for ASE-certified technicians and, in many states, a state repair license posted at the counter. Written estimates are required by law in most states before work begins, and you are entitled to your old parts if you ask.
Hours are published for 6 days a week. The most common schedule is 8 amβ6 pm. Note that it does not open on Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible.

The mechanics there are alright. But they very much overcharged for a simple water pump replacement. $$$ Stay away$$$ Find another mechanic that is trustworthy. The guy there argued with me over 25 dollars when he overcharged me 1400.

This place is the best. Located right on the border of Old Town Torrance, Keith's is the best for repair and replacement work. I'm highly satisfied with the work that was performed and will be back to have other work done. Jimmy and Keith ate down to earth and will explain and answer any questions or concerns you may have. As soon I walked in I knew this place was going to rock and it did. They have a great crew working for them. I have nothing but praise and will recommend them to everyone I know. If you have AAA don't forget to mention to them!

I have left feeling robbed. I was with Keith for 10 minutes turning on and off my diesel truck because the issue is the fuel injection pump. I told him what was wrong and what I told him was what it is however, after 45 minutes of leaving the truck he calls to tell me the pricing. The pricing was astronomical and so I went to pick it up. $377 dollars later I got my keys. Apparently doing a diagnostic test is close to $400. I asked to speak to him but he wasnβt there he was at lunch. Apparently he charges 3hrs of work when the truck was t even there for that time. Iβm glad I didnβt leave it there to get the repairs but I still feel taken advantage of.

I question the reliability of any good reviews for this business. The service (or lack of service, I should say) my family has received from Keith's is beyond unacceptable. After paying over $1000, the issue was not fixed and when the vehicle was brought back to them immediately, they refused to do anything about it unless more money was paid. So after paying even more money and having to wait much longer than they said it would take, the issue was STILL NIT FIXED! They refused to do anything when the vehicle was once again immediately having the same exact issue that they had been paid to fix TWICE. We took it to a it to a DIFFERENT mechanic and had to pay the new mechanic to fix what Keith's had supposedly fixed but obviously did not fix. And guess what? The issue is now finally fixed. What a nightmare. Keith's is a dishonest place of business that does not do what they say they will, they kept our money TWICE and STILL NEVER FIXED ANYTHING. Plus the man there was rude.

Came here to get my engine replaced for my Genesis Coupe and everything seemed fine until I got the car back. First issue that arrived was them not tightening all my coolant lines, and now less than 5k miles later the serpentine belt cracks, odd right. Well these guys didn't replace my old one which I specifically told them to replace because it was cracking and extremely worn. Now I have to spend more money to get it done. Highly recommend going to another shop if you want a good job done.
