What clients say about MP Auto Repair in Monterey Park (CA)
I had a great experience at MP Auto Repair. The team was honest, transparent, and straightforward about what my car needed—and what it didn’t. No pressure, no upselling, just clear explanations and solid work.
They took care of my oil change, tires, and battery quickly, and the pricing was very fair for the quality of service. You can tell they actually care about doing the job right and earning trust, not just making a quick buck.
It’s hard to find an auto shop you can genuinely trust, but this place delivers. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending them to friends and family.
MP Auto Repair had my malfunctioned AC repaired at about half of the price quoted by another auto repair shop. The job was well done and fast. They told me honestly that only the broken compressor needed to be replaced. They also told me the sequence to turn on and turn off the AC to avoid damaging the AC when they saw that I did it the wrong way.
When I went to other auto repair services including a dealership to compare prices, I was lied to about other AC parts needed to be replaced as well. That was why their quotes were way more expensive than that of MP Auto Repair.
It has been about a year since the repair, my AC is still running well with no problem at all even though only the compressor was replaced.
MP Auto Repair is both professional and honest.
I would highly recommend MP Auto Repair to anyone.
I came in because part of my fender liner had come loose — something that could be fixed with a few plastic clips. The shop charged me $85 for what was essentially a 10-minute job using a couple of inexpensive fasteners. I later learned I could have bought the clips for under $10 and done it myself in minutes. While the repair was done, the pricing felt excessive and not transparent. I expected fair labor charges, but this felt like taking advantage of a simple issue. I will not be returning.
They helped with my grandmother with a seat and was really helpful. They told me what are the problems with my car. And put air in my tires and fixed a whole in one of them for free. No cost added... they are real respectful and helpful.
Wong gave me quality, fast service for patching up my flat tire. Also, at a fair and reasonable price. Will definitely be coming back if I have any problems with my car.
After coming here several times, I've noticed this.
Prices are only reasonable for an oil change, and patching up your tires.
Other than that, they will overcharge you for repairs and labor. If you dont know a thing or two about vehicles, you'll think youre paying a fair price.
They'll fix what you need, but will ask you to pay more than it costs.
Having to repair your car is one of the most annoying things only because it can get really expensive. I have been bringing my car to the guys at MP Auto Repair Shop for years and I have no complaints. My car is always repaired in a timely manner and they are honest, and that is why I will recommend this shop to all my friends and family.
Highly recommend this place! Salvador took his time to explain the details. Big, THANKS! First place that I didn’t feel like I was taken advantage of for being a woman. Very affordable prices!
Last time i came here to do an oil change and install new spark plugs and notticed they didn't put the correct amout of oil and they broke a coil for one of my spark plugs and didn't even tell me untill I notticed a missfire weeks later. overpriced for the simple labor. Never coming or recommending here again.
If I had my own tools I would just have done it myself.
Nice guys. Good thing is in and out the same day and can wait for it. You can shop around for cheaper prices but, then again its hard to find a decent mechanic and these guys seem knowledgable and can do more than just a tune up.
I went for a spark plug replacement and returned with a check engine light about bad spark plugs and now I have to pay my mechanic to fix the problem. DO NOT COME HERE the workers get paid hourly and hate there job
Plus
Salvador lost a screw in my engine and said it’s not a problem and replaced it
Great service work, the mechanic was very honest and told me exactly what repairs were necessary. Work was done in a timely manner and it didn't cost me an arm, leg and a lung. Thank you for getting my baby back in fit condition. I will be coming back for future service
What a ripoff! Over $200 for a tune up and oil change!!! Spark plugs had to be ordered from the warehouse. Took over 3 hours to get the job done on a Toyota Corolla.
