Dan and John at North Hollywood Auto Repair are exactly what you hope to find in mechanics. They are honest, fairly priced and will give it to you straight with a priority on anything that affects the safety of your vehicle. They have saved me thousands in unnecessary repairs suggested by the dealer. When I needed my hybrid battery replaced around 150k miles not only were they substantially cheaper than the dealer but they were able to get the part faster! When I had a true safety issue (brakes) John asked for details on my location and the percentage on the brakes. Based on that information, the price the dealer quoted and the fact he couldn’t fit me in for a couple days, he told me if I was his sister he would tell me to let the dealer do the repairs. That kind of refreshingly honest and wholistic view of the situation cemented my loyalty to them. If friends or family mention car trouble, I send them straight for North Hollywood Auto Repair. On the few occasions something is out of their scope (bodywork) they are great with referrals to other local shops.
