Lavco Automotive Services

"Took my Duramax Diesel work van in to get diagnosed. They diagnosed a couple issues. I ended up not being able to get the work done for quite a few months, but when I got back to them, they were extremely professional and thorough. These vans aren't fun to work on (why I took it in) and they did it without question. Recommended some solid maintenance items and got all of it done while the van is apart and open. Pricing is fair and I think a great value considering these guys are an old school master mechanic shop, which is getting harder and harder to find. Anyways nothing but a positive experience. Ben runs nice and cool now. Very grateful I found these guys."

"Over the years, We've gone to Lavco for auto repair, but they always seemed to have their worst mechanics repair our vehicles. We would take a vehicle in for repair, pay for the repair and drive home only to find our vehicles were still not fixed and having to return for more repairs/parts for the same problem...or worse have an expensive repair done here and the part going out several months after the warranty period. Also, when they make a mistake they insist it's not their fault and offer no full or partial refunds. Fortunately, we found a great auto repair shop nearby and will never return to Lavco, nor would we recommend them."

"DO NOT take your car to this shop! They are liars and theives! I took my car here a few months ago. I spent almost $3k with them and it turns out they did half the job and even broke some $300 piece. They say they warranty their work so I went back. I don’t know how many times I’ve had to go back and forth but it has cost me so much time, money to pay Ubers, to pay them, lost time from work…I don’t even live close to them. Someone I didn’t even really know recommended them. Worst decision ever. The last time I went, the owner tells me he will seriously fix it this time. They cut the wires on my sensor so I wouldn’t get a message, charged me for something totally off, and broke under part. Wow! Then, I still give them a chance and call them to pay me my money back. It’s been over a week and nothing. So, here I am! Don’t do here! They are liars and thieves!"

"This shop has been the best I've gone to across my lifespan of visiting many Auto Mechanics. They are straight up genuinely nice, skilled, and incredibly fair with their pricing. I can't think of anyone nearby that I could say is their competition, just save your time and go here."

"I have been taking our cars to Lavco since my nephew referred me 3 years ago. We were new to La Habra at the time and worried about trying to find an honest auto mechanic. I tried 2 mechanics prior to the referral to Lavco, but have been with them ever since. I have recommend them to all my family and friends in the area. Mike in the office has always been exceptionally nice and well-informed."
