Alvin's Auto Center

I brought my 2022 Toyota 4Runner in for 120k mile maintenance at Alvin's Auto Center in Willow Glen, San Jose, and it was by far the best experience I've had at any shop in the city. What really stood out was their technology — the way they handle inspections, communication, and customer service is on another level.… Read full review

I have used Alvin's Auto Center for the past year. Every time I have been greeted by friendly and professional people. I completely trust them with my vehicles. They keep you updated through the entire time they have your vehicle. I highly recommend this company for any and all vehicle repairs. Family owned friendly business in Willow Glen.

I think it was slightly overpriced, but I did not shop around. The service was done as expected. Brake fluid, oil change, and transmission fluid was done promptly and making the appointment was very easy. Vehicle inspection and their process of sending the results of the inspection was very easy to use. I declined… Read full review

Had a very good experience, very through with the diagnoses, and estimates are very concise, did a through inspection on vehicle and will certainly do the rest of the maintenance required on my car with this auto center

Extremely overpriced!!! Their prices are even higher than the dealership! They take advantage of people who don't know much about cars. I strongly advise against coming here.

Took great care of my 14 year old Honda Civic including a small mystery cover that fell off from somewhere in the engine

It has been a month now and I would say Alvin did some good work. I just needed an oil change, a wheel alignment, and transmission fluid. They offered to change wipers and the battery to my car keys. Of course, I am a lazy person and I had the supplies already. They installed the wipers I had in my trunk. I went… Read full review

These guys are the best! They are always thorough but never pushy. Their prices are reasonable. They go above and beyond to make sure we can get our family car back and running before we have time to miss it.

I've been using Alvin's for a few years now and am always very happy with their service. It's a super nice family-owned business.

Very pleasant to work with, knowledgeable and efficient for a reasonable price.

First, both Tony and Sam are very courteous and polite. They explain everything, they identify the issues and go over it in detail, including sending online photos of affected parts before any work is done. And then they answer any questions. And they also asked me to look up previous work done elseware to make sure… Read full review

Brought my Lexus 250 and Honda Civic here for engine oil and filter changes, tire rotations, AC repair, etc. Have been going here for years for basically any car maintenance needed. Tony and staff are extremely helpful. Also huge plus you can schedule appointments online!

I have been going to Alvin's to get my oil changed and issues diagnosed for two years now - after doing research and finding Alvin's! The team was very detailed and knowledgeable, and the manager was able to describe all of their findings in detail to me. I’ve met multiple employees at the shop and have been so… Read full review

I recently purchased a 2018 Lexus, and although low miles I wanted to have it serviced and not pay dealer price, so I went online. Alvin's had many good reviews, but closed on weekends, my days off from work. However, I was given veterans day off, so around noon I called Alvin's. I was told they are booked for the… Read full review

Alvin's auto always does a great job at fair prices. They have kept my car well maintained for years and I'm so happy they have a more convenient San Jose location now.

Efficient and great overall value. The team takes the time to explain everything and does a thorough job.

These guys are on top of it. Superb communications via phone/text/email….whatever accommodates the client. High tech analysis, quality service, and high security property,. ..Not the cheapest, not the most expensive. Very fair in letting you make the decision on services to be selected.They are now my service center… Read full review

They have a very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Solid work on our cars.
