Danny’s Auto Service

My AC line was clogged, which was causing the condensation to drip from underneath my glove compartment. Called multiple places, decided to come here because Danny was honest about what it could be and I know for something like this won’t cost much money and quoted me like 25 bucks.
However, once I got their it was super easy. Danny’s Grandson, I didn’t get his name took care of me and it was simple and quick. He ended up charging nothing in the end. This seem like a legit honest business, family owned and run. I’ll be back when I need anything else for my cars. Thanks guys!

I recently installed a new battery in my car, which caused the engine light to turn on, and my car to stall. I was really worried, thinking that I was going to be spending a lot of money! This is my go to place, but when my car was stalling this place was closed, so I went to a mechanic that my uncle recommended, and the mechanic was asking for $ 100 to clean the throttle body, and it wasn’t a for sure thing since my uncle was trying to convince him to charge me $ 100. Pepboys on first street was trying to charge me to just tell me what the code meant, and an arm and a leg to diagnose my engine. Luckily, I didn’t accept, and I just showed up at Danny’s when they were open. He charged me around $ 45! Big difference! On another note, I thought my car was making noise a couple months ago, so I took it to Danny, he checked it out (had the tires removed and whatnot), and told me nothing seemed wrong, and to go back if any issues appear. Any other mechanic would’ve seen a woman and charged her for some made up issue, but Danny didn’t charge me a thing!

I got my oil changed, tranny fluid drained and refilled, tires rotated and brakes inspected. They even let me provide my own parts. Great prices, clean shop and courteous service. Cant get any better.

Danny changed my oil today. Took about 20 – 25 minutes. He was quick, courteous and insightful. I asked him about my other vehicle and he gave me great advice. I think I found a great mechanic in Danny. I’ll be bringing my vehicles here for my maintenance and repairs. Thanks Danny.

Fantastic customer service. Danny takes the time to explain things. Reasonable prices. Excellent experience.

So I get into my car after work, and lo and behold, the oil light starts flashing. Omg… what do I do? I don’t have time all weekend to get my oil changed… I only have a couple hours before class…
Jumped onto Unilocal to find a place close to school to take my car to and came across Danny’s. Called them on a whim, and they were able to fit me in right away. It’s located on the corner of Fairview and 1^st, in the back corner of a lot with other auto shops, so it was a bit hard to find at first. Got quoted $ 30 and roughly 20 minutes for an oil change. Arrived to the shop, and they immediately took my car in… no questions, nothing! Got right to work on it.
Watching them work on my car right now… it’s about 15 minutes in, and they were kind enough to check the air pressure in my tires! A lot of places I have been to don’t provide that service, so I was pleasantly surprised!
It’s now about 20 minutes, and they are almost done; completing my invoice now! Wow… best service I have ever gotten at a shop.

Needed new brake pads and have my rotors resurfaced. They gave me a great price and recommended brake pads to buy if I wanted to bring them in myself. Everyone there was very kind to me, and they taught me a bit more about cars that I didn’t know. I’ll definitely come back here if my car needs work!

First time visit. Need to fix my wife’s car on Sunday and there are not much choice. I almost take wife’s car to dealership. Lucky I found Danny’s repair shop. Thank you Unilocal.Their have good service and the price is reasonable. And they open on Sunday which is a plus.

I was lucky enough to stumble on this repair shop. Danny runs this business with a true heart for service. His leadership reflects in all of his staff who are friendly and work hard. Reasonable pricing.
Danny obviously runs his business with a conscience. It is more important for him to do the right thing than to make a quick buck, making him a mechanic I can put my trust in.
I am not utilizing hyperbole because I can be very critical when necessary, but this place is the real deal.

When you need work done to your car Danny is man to do it. Got my front brakes done and prices are reasonalble. Better than other locations in the area. I was in and out didn’t have to wait much. Very friendly, honest, and helpful staff. Sure coming back.

Excellent Service, Friendly and very professional Work team there. Danny and Leo always thoroughly explains Whatever the situation my car goes through and what will be done to fix the problem at the end giving me that peace of mind knowing that my car will be maintenanced in good hands. Will always be coming back and recommend to everyone.

Being new to Orange County from Florida I had no idea where to take my car when my light came on indicating it was time for my regular check up. Since it was nothing more than a standard check up I decided to just take it to the Honda Dealership and quickly remembered how dirty and dark the auto industry can be when I got hit with a $ 480 and that uncomfortable situation where they told me I needed new brakes for just an extra $ 300 and weren’t going to take no for an answer.
That’s when I better start doing some research and found Danny’s and I couldn’t be happier! Not only was he able to fix my car in less than 3 hours (when one very high Unilocaling ranking garage told me they wanted to keep my car for over a week) but they also only charges me almost half of what they were asking and even gave me a discount!
Danny and his son are both so nice and very helpful when explaining what they are doing! This is what you are looking for if your looking for a new place to take your car! They won’t do you wrong and you’ll leave feeling as happy and satisfied as I am today!

Great service great people it’s hard to find a honest mechanic, so grateful to be his costumer!

I am so happy with the service at Danny’s Auto Service. Thank you Unilocal for making it so easy to find great service. I took in my 2009 Camry for service and was treated very fair and will be returning for all my car service needs. Thank you Danny.

Absolutely stellar service and customer service here. Danny, the owner, was very generous with his time, and took the time to explain things to me. He made sure that my problem was fully resolved and followed up with me.
You can tell he takes pride in what he does and also that he genuinely cares for you as his customer. He won’t charge you for things that he could, and makes sure that you’re absolutely satisfied.

Unilocal never fails me. Thank you to all who post reviews, many of us (and you reading this) rely on others to post so we can wisely choose. Therefore I must do my part to help others searching for an auto mechanic.
Danny’s Auto in Santa Ana did live up to the 5 star rating everyone before me submitted. I’m happy to say I am also one of the many satisfied customers of Danny!
I came in for a front brake job. He quoted me and explained the benefits of the cheaper generic pads being the same as the costlier name brands. The sign of a trustworthy businessman. He then found out it was my rear brakes that were making the squeaking noise not the fronts. He could have convinced me to «also» do the rears, but instead told me the fronts don’t need it yet. Another sign of his honesty.
I brought my bike in fully expecting to ride home and wait several hours. He said it would actually only take 2 hours (which it didn’t)…it took a little over an hour and a half! What kind of auto repair shop is this? Honest, customer cost conscious, and fast! Need I say more? Danny’s Auto is definitely now my auto mechanic of choice and I’ve already stored him in my contact list!

Danny ’ s Auto Service is awesome. I needed extensive brake work done, and Danny took care of me. And he’s so genuine, nice, and honest. His prices are so affordable. I’ve been coming here for the past 12 years! I highly recommend Danny’s, in Santa Ana, California!

Love this place… I’ve been going here since 2000. Great service and friendly. Free Wifi great for the wait.
I had trouble with my car and I thought it was the barrier but AAA came twice and said it wasn’t the batterie. I took it to Danny’s and he said it’s the batterie. He even printed out the sheet and said 1volt replace now… WOW really? aAA didn’t want me to use my 3 year warranty because it expires in a week. Glad that Danny took care if me and now I’m getting a free batterie from AAA

Drove all the way from Baldwin Park to get a second opinion on what was wrong with my car. Danny took care of it right away! He knew right away what was needed and had the part delivered ASAP. His years of experiences says it all! Not to mention staff is very friendly and professional. Thank you Danny auto services!

Danny and his son are very very sweet!
They really take care of you and your car. They make sure customer service is satiafactory ans your car is up & running well! The prices are very reasonable (mention Unilocal for a discount!!). I ALWAAAYS come here for anything I need with my car. I trust Danny and his quality of service as well as every one else that works here. I also recommended this place to a ton of people I know and they agree that service and quality is satisfactory.
I believe oil is around $ 25-​$ 30 for regular.
***Note*** INCREDIBLY CUTE ROTTWEILER TO PLAY WITH NAMED TURBO. SOOOO CUTE AND SWEEET! Very nice company to play with while waiting for your car :)

pésimo servicio, encontramos este taller por recomendaciones de yellowpages. Dejamos un nissan máxima para diagnosticar y nos pidieron tres Hrs de espera. Cuando regresamos el carro estaba en otro taller sin mi autorización, para hacerle el diagnóstico y pagamos $ 65.00 dls. Según el resultado posiblemente seria el map sensor y nos cobraban $ 480.00 dos por arreglarlo SIN GARANTÍAS porque no estaban seguros que eso fuera el problema. Lo llevamos a otro taller y ahí nos cobraron $ 125 dls por hacer de nuevo el diagnóstico y reemplazar el map sensor y sensor de oxígeno. No vuelvo a ninguno de los dos talleres.
