Newport Beach Auto Repair

I have been taking my cars to Brian for years for the basic service, tires, tuneups, oil etc. and have always had great service. My Porsche 911 Turbo was leaking a little oil so I made the mistake of taking it to Newport Auto Center, the Porsche, Audi and Bentley dealer here in town. After a thorough check by a Porsche Certified Mechanic, I was told the only option was to replace the entire transmission at a cost of $21,000.00 (not a typo!) I brought it to Automax and within a day they completely fixed the leak for under $500.

Great service! I didn't need an appointment and a minor issue was fixed quickly and at no charge. Highly recommended!

"I wanted to drop a line to say Thank You once again to Automax. My wife and I have been taking our 2 Mercedes to you folks for the last few years. Every experience and interaction is not only positive but more than expected. The quality of work, timeliness, and communication from your organization continues to set you apart in your industry. Two individuals whom specifically I would like to mention are Greg and Jeff. Both are ethical, honest and on top of it all. You have made the experience a phenomenal one, everytime."

"I have been bringing my Mercedes, Lexus, and BMW to Automax for about 5 years. It is a no-brainer for me. I bought my Lexus from Tustin Lexus, but I take it to Automax because I know they won't try and sell me anything I don't need. At Automax, there is not clutter or commotion, just great service. Going to Automax is an experience, not just another errand to run. The layout of the facility is beautiful and it's a pleasure to wait for my car to be finished. I know the tech's are responsible and that my car is in good hands."

"Automax is the best in the business. The service is excellent, the mechanics are knowledgeable, and the facility its first class. When I take my car into Automax I don't have to worry about it."

“What I am writing to tell you is that your group could have easily charged me the full boat – and your crew instead did the honest thing! Wow – an honest mechanics shop these days! Not to mention superior service! Everyone at the shop had a delightful demeanor and I have never had such a pleasant experience. I connected immediately with Jeff and he really went the extra mile to make me feel confident that things were done right.”

“I was incredibly impressed with the professionalism, honesty, and promptness you displayed yesterday while repairing my 320SL. That is a rare experience in the car repair business. You completed all of the repairs – and quicker – for less than Fletcher Jones would have charged. Your facility is top notch and I will definitely recommend you to friends and family.”

Was worried when Mark's Auto became AutoMax, but Brian and the crew have proved to be outstanding. Recently, after a terrible experience with So Coast Subaru, Brian replaced driver's side window on my daughter's 2012 Forester that had been broken into on Christmas day. Brian and the group are extremely professional, efficient, and honest. They deliver exactly what they promise on time and at a very fair price. They did a great job in getting our older 2002 Toyota Camry (100K plus miles) in tip top shape for our other daughter. Switching all of our repair work to them, plus, the discounts from time to time!

“I commute back and forth to Los Angeles for work and the guys at Automax do whatever it takes to fit me in when I need service. Most of the time I wait for my car to be finished and work on my laptop in their lounge. It’s a great place to get work done and most of the time they are finished with my car before I am finished with my work.”

Great service! Treated me like family and had my car fixed in no time. Thank you again. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an affable staff and a quick fix!
