LAKE FOREST AUTO REPAIR

If you're looking for a honest mechanic shop this is the place!!! My check engine light came on, so I called the shop and they told me I could bring it in the same day which was a plus. When I got there I was greeted by the owner Charles, he was super welcoming and also offered to give me a ride home so I wouldn't have to wait at the shop which was great . After they inspected my car they emailed me a detailed report of a couple things wrong with my car. When I called them back they explained everything to me and even told me what needed to be addressed with high priority and what could wait which I appreciated seeing as it was unexpected. I decided to get a new car instead of fixing this one since it already had soo many miles on it, Charles and his team offered for me to bring my new car back to them so they can inspect it for me to make sure everything was good since I was going to buy a used car.. which I thought was soo awesome.Also the pricing is affordable in comparison to other mechanic shops in this area!! A few days after my visit I received car care cash to use towards my future services.. I will definitely be back! They also have printable coupons on their website of specials :) Comment from Charlie S. of L & M Automotive Service Center Business Owner 2/22/2020Cindy, thanks for getting the word out about our coupons and specials! When you bring your car to us, you can always expect honest and straightforward service. We hope you have been enjoying your new ride, and let us know if you need anything in the future!

Stand up team. Great service and communication.

No one is happy about their car needing repairs, but I am glad that I've finally found a local shop that I can trust! They are fair priced and more importantly they care about what they do. I've brought multiple vehicles into this shop for all sorts of repairs and they are all still in good shape today! Mike is a professional and great business owner. Diagnosed my problem quickly, (had a bad alternator) Replaced it in a timely fashion at a fair price. Lifetime warrantied the part. Truck is running great. Vehicle problems never come at a good time, but the people at this shop do great work. I wouldn't take my vehicles anywhere else. Glad to have finally found an honest and reasonable shop! Read more
