Trusted Since 1995

We’ve been coming to Ruben for years. We even followed him from his old place right near our house and now drive pretty far to the north Hollywood spot. He’s worth it, always honest and goes above and beyond. The secret is to drop off your car for service and head over to salsa and beer for food and margs if it’s not close to you.

Rueben did a pre-purchase inspection of a used car & was thorough & clear & exacting. Ashley in the office coordinated getting the car from the dealer to the garage & was pleasant and efficient throughout. And they did this all from 150 miles away from where I live.

I’ve been going to Ruben at his old shop (Los Feliz Auto) since I moved to LA almost 3 years ago and am thrilled to follow him to his new shop. The Hollywood Auto Center just expanded and is a really great space. There is a comfortable waiting area that is very clean and much nicer than any other waiting area I’ve ever experienced. It feels like you are at a dealership. The guys will make sure to get you in and out as quickly as possible, while not sacrificing any efficiency in service.

Ruben is affordable and honest and gives every customer the time needed to do the job right. He always explains exactly what’s going on and walks you through exact costs and gives detailed advice so you feel super informed going into each decision that needs to be made.

Most recently I had my break pads replaced, a new battery put in and an oil change. Everything’s working great now!

All of our cars have been serviced here and we continue to bring them back if any issues arise. The service is always impeccable and the entire staff are easy-going. I highly recommend coming here for any auto-body repair needs!

I’ve been going to Ruben for about 6 years in Glendale at his previous location, his customer service, honesty and friendliness was a must followed to North Hollywood.  Ruben is very professional and his prices are reasonable. The new location is very welcoming, a waiting room with AC, Cable, water and restroom, very clean! Everyone here is friendly.  I highly recommend this place to all, come and see for yourself you won’t regret.

Fantastic service from Sean, Reuben, and the whole staff. Had driven up from San Diego to attend a family funeral, next morning went to start my ’99 Volvo V70 and the engine was mis-firing. My wife had work done previously on her Volvo wagon here as they are an independent Volvo shop (try to avoid the Dealership as much as possible!) so I went to see them for my car. Shop was busy,busy,busy on Thursday mid afternoon when we arrived and I was worried they wouldn’t have time for me. Sean was very accommodating, took car in, said they would fit me in ASAP. Had car diagnosed and repaired by mid day Friday at a very reasonable price, took all my worries away. Would give 6 stars if possible!!!

Professional and extremely helpful! I’ve taken my vehicle here several times and highly recommend Hollywood Auto to anyone who needs repairs. Very affordable and HONEST! Rueben is the best, he explains exactly what’s wrong with your vehicle and what your options are and helps you make the best decision. The work is solid and never takes too long. I’ll never take my car anywhere else!

I would recommend this place to anyone. Ruben is by FAR the best auto mechanic I have ever met. He is smart, kind, honest, constantly in communication regarding any questions or issues with the car, and always surprises me with over-the-top service. He even had my car washed for me without charge, because it was filthy – I’ve never experienced service this great. Fair prices and the rest of the office is warm and friendly. I moved to LA two years ago not knowing anyone, or where to turn for car help – so thank you Ruben and Hollywood Auto Center – having you treat me this way has been a total blessing! Five stars.
