Santa Monica and Redondo Beach auto repair

Believe the fucking reviews! This place is amazing. (I'm cursing on purpose) My Story: My car wouldn't start. * I went from Midas: $1000 spent fixing a part that wasn't the issue & wasted a tow-- * to Ford SM dealership: hundreds spent on a rental for almost two weeks, wasted another tow, they didn't look at the part that I suggested which was ultimately the issue. I walked away after almost two weeks with no diagnosis. And the front office wouldn't even help to oblige my request to help me bump start my car (I drive a manual for those that understand this simple request) (p.s. the actual mechanics there are f***ing absolutely amazing humans) -- * to Car Nerds: Less than 24 hrs. Charged me just $200, parts and labor. I turned my car over to them end of day Friday, they had it diagnosed by Saturday morning and completely operational by Saturday afternoon. They worked on it and let me pick it up on a day they were closed for business. This place is family owned and they act like it. I requested they round UP my total cost and chose to pay more, because the service deserved a tip, especially after all I had gone through. I pledged to always take my car here. Thanks to Matt and team for ending my nightmare and runaround.

Car Nerds are truly expert. The work oil & filter change and tire rotation was done quickly (I've got upcoming surgery and they worked me in) and surprisingly inexpensively. They are swamped with business - largely because they are so good. I've had them work on my 2012 Honda Fit and 2021 Toyota Prius since for about 5 years. I've always seen a first-class operation! Car nerds is the best - and most expert - automotive repair service that I've ever seen.

5 stars. Professional and friendly service from Matt. It was my first time & I am going to be a Nerd customer.

Car Nerds is the best place on the westside to service cars!! They are particularly awesome with Toyotas!!!

Always spectacular service. Honest, reliable professional. Matt is amazing!

This was the first time I have used Car Nerds. I was extremely happy with the service provided. I needed my air struts replaced. The team was very polite and they had the work accomplished the same day.

Very Professional, timely and I will be referring my clients and friends to them.

So grateful for your work. Had a very eventful day dealing with the car dealer telling me my car was going to cost so much to get fixed and your guys fixed it in 30 minutes! Thank you for being so honest!!

We were so pleased again with the service and expertise of the Card Nerds team. Our 11 year old Priuss has a new life ahead with a half day tune up. I especially appreciate and value their honest business practices and sound advice!

These guys are masters of their craft. Took my 2010 Nissan Altima Hybrid for repair and they discovered immediately what was wrong with it and by doing so saved me lots of money. I had previously had it checked out by another mechanic and they had misdiagnosed my car issue and quoted me double what I paid at Car Nerds. Thankfully they denied the repair due to the inability of equipment to do so for the high voltage system and I found Car Nerds. Thanks to Matt and crew for the fast, friendly and cost saving service! Would definitely recommend to my friends, family and anyone else for their hybrid repairs.
