The shop owner was really helpful and patient with me this was my first time getting my car fixed and he did a really good job i highly recommend coming here
Great guy. Quick and easy
This is the best smog inspection place in the bay area.
They get the job done and at a good price! Had a part replaced for a discounted price. Also had my bumper reattached with no charge. Friendly and helpful staff but a little disorganized.
Been dealing with engine problems since the first of July still not done August 25th
Great work! Quick and affordable! Transmission experts!
Honest and great shop to go to. Took my X5 with issues and mechanic figured it out and told me what needs to be fixed. Also, if you getting something quickly repaired or oil changed, there’s a taco truck in parking lot to grab a bite while you wait.
Run a smog check and the service owner charged me $50 without a proper invoice. Why did I choose this bad place on the first hand.
I left a review here ~1.5 years ago but its gone so here it is again. It was legitimately the worst experience with a mechanic I ever had.I towed a 2003 Mitsubishi eclipse with no-start problems to here. Seemed like fuel pump but actually was cam sensors. They were going to do the job and said to come back in a few days. Got a ride over when I was told to just to be told it hasnt been done. Come back a few days later to it done, and I make it several miles before engine cutoff. Call them and they say to tow it back, which I do. They say it must be something with wiring connections, but will investigate. Several days go by and nothing. I text the mechanic asking if their is any update and dont get response for another day, and he says hell get to it tomorrow because hes leaving early to watch a game. Come back after a week and a half of radio silence to be told that its probably something with the wiring harness and that job would cost as much as the car was worth. Get it towed back home and sell it as salvage after taking ubers literally everywhere for 2 and a half weeks. The day I come pick it up its obvious it was just sitting on the sidelines since I was there last. After 2 weeks of tomorrow, I reached breaking point and gave up hope. Im not botheres by the prospects of being told services will be expensive, Im bothered by the immense lack of professionalism, lack of communication, and lack of ability to have something done when you say it will be done so many times . Good riddance.
Plan to fix my car battery here. However, after exchanging the battery and charge me for the new battery, they told me actually my old battery is good to use, its just some wire is loose in between. Why not call me before install the new battery? Instead waste me $300??!Also after installing the new battery, they forgot to set it as a new one to the car and its myself that figured this out and called them to verify. They asked me to return back to set it.
Great and fast service with reasonable price. The owner is very helpful and friendly. We came at 3pm on Sunday and they still got our car fixed. They are very professional and hardworking.
I take my vehicle to here smog all the time wonderful experience very easy and the price is unbelievable it’s a most for smog and repair
Called in and asked how much a car battery change was. Got exactly the service I asked without any bogus extra charges. The mechanic even drove my car for me so the battery would get adjusted. Great service.
Was great in the past, probably still is but saddened they joined the RV Smog price racket/fixing. Some SMOG shops decided they could charge RVs $140 for SMOG rather than $40 for car even though there is no extra work involved - just parking can be tighter in some places (depends on RV size). The only reason given is market rate of what other shops charge - to me it is price fixing and should get the state to look into it. 2 years ago, I did have a shop try this trick. Today, many more shops are doing it. They were very nice about it, but I still think it reflects poorly on integrity. The message is if I can cheat you out or more money, I will which is bad for a repair shop. Yes, I did find much cheaper elsewhere, but mourning the loss of my usual and trusted smog check.
Very easy to use interface. The owner is very friendly and always makes sure I get the best deal.
Car stopped running one morning. Had it towed to the shop. I knew it was leaking something but nothing else really. Vu had it running the next day and to my surprise... it wasnt leaking anymore either. Thats whats up.
Been going to them for a couple years and Ive always had a great experience. The owner and employees are super friendly and professional and the work is always excellent.
They were super professional and super quick. I took my car to get a smog check and it only took 5 min tops. I am coming back for sure.
When another place told me theyd need 6 hours and ~$500 for my 90k maintenance and I came here and the owner looked at my Toyota and said Nah, just an oil and transmission fluid change. And much, much less than $500.Since then Ive come here for all my oil changes (full synthetic, a fraction of the Jiffy price), smog check, even changing the bulbs in my headlights.Great service and prices. Only place Ill come to.
Came in for a smog check. Extremely fast, taking about five minutes to complete everything. Very direct, and altogether only $40 with a printed certificate.
I own 2 vehicles and this is the only place I bring them to. Not only because of the great customer service but because the work is great and the prices are reasonable.... I just recently took my Honda Odyssey in there.. As soon as I pull up the main guy tells me to pop the hood. As soon as I do that he tells me what the problem is.. I said are you sure, he says trust me.. This guy not only had my car running in a matter of hrs but he saved me some $$$$...I could of went somewhere else and got charged an arm and a leg for the diagnostic and work plus parts.... But like I said great work great reasonable prices plus great service.... Thank you
Staff very professional and quick awesome service
The shop owner strides to give you the best prices and the most honest repairs. He will never tell you to replace anything that isn’t broken. I’m very lucky to have found a shop with good integrity that will take good care of my car and keep it running.
They have the best service in the area always helpful and informative. They always give me a brief on all the updates after my service. Friendly atmosphere, fast service and excellent customer service would highly recommend them for any automotive needs.
Immediate service and fast work. Great value for good work. I would recommend.
Kind and quick.
Ive been to many so-called honest repair shops, but I would say this is one of the better ones at that. They are pretty to-the-point guys, and do a decent job! Note its not a full-featured repair shop so may not be able to fix ALL your problems.I took my BMW here with a coolant problem- they were able to fix quickly on a Saturday evening, and cost me about $100 - much cheaper than anything else at the time (and still working great so far)!!
Could not do what I requested and could not refer me 2 another mechanic.
Mr Vu identified the noise source of my car very efficiently and fixed it with a very reasonable price. He pays attention to customers car and is good at his job. Above all, he is honest with customers. He let me know what he is confident to do and what is not. He also explained and showed me why the part is causing an issue. I am a curious customer who asked a lot of questions. And he is surprisingly patient with me. It has been a good experience. If any issue occurs to my car again, i would like to come back to his shop.
Good and fast service. Price is reasonable. $40 for smog, certificate uncluded. Best price in Sunnyvale.
Needed a smog check, oil change, and a diagnosis for some weird sound my Subaru Legacy is making.Everything was done on timely manner. Vu (owner) is great and friendly. Took my car and drove to check.Found the problem and recommended the fix for a reasonable price! Enjoyed my time there. Will get my car fixed tomorrow after the parts arrived!
Ive used this shop on 3 occasions now (2 repair, 1 smog), and theyve always done excellent work at a good price. I know a bit about car repair (and done a bit), so Ive monitored their diagnosis and repair(s) very closely. All I can say is that its nice to have a good, trustworthy mechanic in the neighborhood.
Nice guy. Went for smog test that previously fail because of monitor issue. He gave a honest reason it is because of battery down that I actually had few days ago and suggested to just drive another 100 miles, it should be all good. I did not get this from other garage guys. True skilled professional.
Very reasonably priced smog check and are STAR certified. Staff here is personable and knowledgeable without condescension. Really superb and quick service!
Very honest repair shop, goes above and beyond for transparency from diagnoses to cost of parts and labor. Vu was both reasonable and kind, this place has surprisingly good customer service. They make you feel like a friend. I will definitely be coming back here should any of our cars have an issue.
Super fast and friendly. Highly recommend you take your vehicle.
Keep it Runnin really have the customers interest at heart. I came in for a mirror installation and got more than I could ever dream of. They were super helpful and kind. Theyve fixed my dent, cleaned it, and cleaned the headlights as well! I feel they are really looking out for me. I dont think I could ask for a better auto service shop and Im really happy that Ive found them! What a godsend!
The mechanic tried to trick me into changing more part of my car when those parts are fine. Also did terrible when chasing my oil. The cap wasn’t closed properly. I found out after I left and had to do it myself again.
Vu is very professional, friendly, and quick! He made my process easy and stress free! Definitely coming back!
Definitely reccomend this place. My truck broke down on the freeway on a Sunday afternoon and we were lucky enough that this shop was open! They figured out what was wrong right away and I was able to pick up my truck the very next day! Vu is a hardworking professional and will be the best mechanic for all your vehicle needs. Check them out for smogs too!
Great auto work. Got our old car to pass the smog test.
I went to the this shop keep it running and the service was great. The shop owner Vu knew exactly what was wrong with my car and didnt give me the run around like other shops. I would definitely go to keep it running for all my repairs.Great pricing and great service.
Oil change and customer service was fire. Definitely will come back.
The guys who run this place provide excellent customer service, even for something as quick and easy as a smog check. Highly recommended if you’re in the area!
There was a problem with my car and made a loud moaning noise near the engine. Came in on a rainy day and the mechanic took a look at it. Very friendly and smart guy. He was able to fix it and I was in and out of there in a timely manner. I think his rates are fair and is a trust worthy mechanic. Dont hesitate to stop by if youre having issues with your car.
Great place been coming here for a couple years now for an oil change or when anytime i need repairs prices are fair mechanic always frendly and helpful.
This guy is totally cool. i always have a blast visiting this place. Always gets the job done for a reasonable price.
My nissan rouge, rear view mirror socket is broken, I went to nissan service center and several body shops to get the broken socket removed, so I can put a new one. Every other service center quoted me hundreds of dollars and couple of hours work. Finally, I tried my luck with keep it running service and Vu helped me out with it in a fraction of few mins. These guys are very helpful and friendly. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for good and fast customer service.
I received immediate assistance. Mechanic is humorous & I cant complain, especially when my 10 year old daughter wanted to write the review. Thanks for keeping this mommy on the road!
Have had my car checked and repaired multiple times at Keep It Runnin. They are always honest, quick, and affordable regarding my car concerns. Will keep coming back and would recommend coming here.
KeepItRunnin is one of few auto shops that you can rely on to do an excellent job at fixing your car. After constantly refilling coolant in my 325i, I decided to visit this shop since it was near my work. Vu found that there was a leak in the coolant system and fixed it right up. The delivery and cost was very reasonable! I decided to wait to write this review in case any issues might have come up. But my car has been running great! Furthermore, he offered me a coke after seeing me a bit stressed. Nice guy all around!
Vu is a great mechanic. I took my car there for 90k maintenance and he straight up told me whats commonly replaced for my model and about how much it would cost. He called a few times to tell me about other parts he found that needed replacing throughout the service and when I came to pick it up, they had buffed out scratches and replaced my hub caps for free! Definitely will be a returning customer
Solid service, super nice people, fixed my tires quick!
I Love Vu!! Hes the only one that I go to to get my oil changes, and he patched my tires a few times. He also helped my step dad out with his car. Vu is a Great mechanic and his prices are good! I also Love the cashiers, great customer service! Thank You Keep It Running for being good to me and my car!
Keep It Running Great service & communication, as always. Despite the up-front estimate, they only charged for what they actually did (less than the estimate)...and nothing for the engine light reset, as it was just an oil change that was needed. You wouldnt get this kind service at a dealer. Great shop.Funny owner that definitely knows his stuff. I would definitely recommend this place.. Niraj Suthar
Vu is very helpful and honest. He is transparent about all labour and parts cost. You can definitely trust him with your car.
I have gone here several times now for my emissions test and they are always very friendly and quick with their services.
I brought my car in, because the whole steering wheel and the front of car were agitating and vibrating when I drove higher than 65 miles/hr ever since an incident of flat tire recently. Jerron and Vu took the time to look into the issue. They recommended 4 wheel alignment. Since it was a job that they couldnt do in their shop, Vu was nice that he didnt charge me for diagnostic.
Cool place and fast service. This guy is super chill!
Fast, effective, knowledgeable, honest. Good communication. Great price.
OK place. Fast service. Very nice owner.
Great service and friendly staff.
Super quick and friendly. They charged $60 for my 1999 Ford Expedition while every other place wanted $100.
Mr. Minh did an amazing job repairing my car. I had a great experience and recommend everyone to stop by when necessary.
Came here to get a smog check; owner was fast and efficient. Really funny guy, would definitely come back and recommend!
Great smog check experience, super fast and friendly. Open on a Sunday morning, with zero wait.
Easy and fast. Nice guy.
Vu, the good looking young guy. LolThanks for cleaning my headlights and painting my front bumper. Oh, and for the smog check!Recommended for anyone who needs service. :)
They did a quick fix for my car. But they charged too much for changing a A/C compressor. You need to BARGAIN!
Great customer service, great pricing fun crew. Gave lots of information.
I needed my car fixed before my trip to L.A and this shop happened to be most convenient because it was on my way to work. My breaks were super squeaky and I had suspension issue on my 99 jeep cherokee. I know I shouldnt have waited off on repairing my car but I kept getting outrageous quotes and decided it is best to get multiple opinions. Since my trip was coming up I decided to drop by this place and the owner Vu checked out the car for me. He was extremely friendly and knowledgable and said he would get it fixed within the next hour or two and with a discounted rate. 20% off! On top of that they quoted me on a price that is half of what the last place that I went to quoted me.They called me back about an hour later and my car was fixed, no squeak and I was ready for my trip. These guys are friendly, honest and fast! I will definitely come back if necessary and recommend everyone to stop by if the have car issues.
Awesome service ! Would definitely come back. Came for an oil change and I didnt have to wait long at all :) !
Amazing staff, amazing work. My favorite place to go when I have problems with my car.
Needed a shock change today and I received immediate assistance here, zero wait time and excellence service!! Also, the price here is transparent and reasonable, would definitely come here when I have problems with my car.
I love this guy. a fun expirience. prices are competitive. i would reccomend.
Smog test takes less than ten minutes. Recommended.
Vu (the mechanic) is a nice guy with a fun personality; he does honest work for a reasonable prices compared to other places.
Vu was extremely professional and prompt with all my needs. Will 100% take my car here next time.
I gave him the car at 9am and he told me it will be checked by noon. I called at 1:30 and it was still not checked. He said it will be checked in on me hour. I went there after one hour and it was not checked at all.He wasted my day I had to take the car and start looking for another mechanic.
The mechanics do a honest and good quality job on my car.
I love this place. my car wouldnt start and the young mechanic went to my house to diagnose and fix it on the stop. the price was cheaper then the other shops that i called around. i definitly come back to this place thanks keep it runnin
Fix my leak for 500 when other shop wanted 1200 just because its a German car. I recommend this place to all my friends and family
Fast, friendly service. Took my car in for a smog check and it was done quickly! Would come back again.
I got to it to this place. They know what their doing. Funny owner that definitly knows his stufff. I would definitly reccomend this place
Quick service! Called at 5:10 today went in and was done before 5:30!
Had a great experience. Ask for Vu. He will hook you and your car up!
Thx to keep it runnin smog and repair, my 2000 toyota tacoma is fix. I had a check engine light with a o2 sensor code so didnt pass smog for ob2 monitor. The owner advise to replace the sensors which i did. Also i was told to drive for certain amount of miles for the monitors to get ready so i drove around for 2 days. Bring it back and pass smog without a problem. Thx keep it runnin . I will be back for my future smog and repair.
