Very happy to have found Simon and Glenview Automotive. A mechanic at another shop told me that my front brake pads needed to be replaced. I thought this was odd since there were no indication to suggest worn pads: no squeaking, no grinding sounds, etc. My older Honda (2004) does not have an indicator light so I wasnt sure whether to believe the first mechanic. Took the car to Simon who did a visual inspection; he said I still had 5mm on the front pads and 6mm on the back. (New pads typically have between 8-12mm). More broadly, Simon (and his daughter who works in the office) left me feeling that I could trust them to do an honest job for a fair price. I echo the endorsements of other posters and would not hesitate to recommend this small repair garage. I will definitely return if I encounter car issues in the future.

Excellent and honest service and extremely knowledgeable owner/technician.

One of the best mechanics Ive dealt with in yrs. Very fair and honest

Simon Ho is an outstanding mechanic. We were introduced to him by a neighbor and have been taking various makes and models of cars to him for the past 6 years or so. He is honest, fast, and is a pleasure to work with. He used to be located at the Piedmont Valero and his new location is easy to get to. I have recommended Simon to family and co workers as well and they have all come back with the same positive experience. I am amazed how skilled Simon is - he seems to know to work on every make and model of every car. From time to time I see him working on some pretty exotic cars like the Porsche 356 and the BMW M3. How cool is that?

My husband is an Uber and Lyft driver and a passenger recommended this mechanic as the only one they trust, and our first service there confirmed this expectation, and we saved about $250 compared to the dealership estimate for tune-up, oil change, fan belt and brake pads. Simon also honestly said what actually needs to be done and what was up-sell by the dealership, avoiding unnecessary $500 valve adjustment on our Honda Accord. He was very courteous and professional and had everything done the same day without a prior appointment, so well definitely use him again for all of our cars!

A truly honest mechanic!
