Fair estimates and honest work — 30 years on Bryant Street

Our story

The shop San Francisco drivers actually trust

For more than 30 years, Automotive Specialists has worked out of the same garage at 718 Bryant Street — long enough that customers bring in their old Honda Civics, their trucks, and eventually their brothers-in-law's new cars too. We keep it simple: give a fair estimate, explain exactly what's going on with your vehicle, do thorough work on schedule, and never pile on services you don't need. Our customers notice the difference — from the clean, tidy shop floor to a quote that comes in lower than the other places they called. From routine oil changes to full transmission rebuilds, brake work, and official brake and light inspections, we handle it with the same care that's earned us a 4.8-star rating from the drivers of San Francisco.

  • No upselling — we fix what needs fixing
  • Honest estimates, often lower than competitors
  • A clean, tidy shop you can see for yourself
  • Same Bryant Street location for over 30 years

What customers say

“After giving me an estimate at least $100 lower than every other place I called, at the end of the day, they did the job for me for free. Great service, friendly staff. Highly recommended!”

Austin Brown

“They deliver thorough, on-schedule work at an excellent price, without ever offering unnecessary services. I've had major work done here, including rebuilding my transmission, plus routine oil changes. Automotive Specialists are the only reason my car is still running well and looking great.”

Louise Miller

“I had to get a brake and light inspection for my car and I also needed a brake light on the dashboard fixed. They were able to resolve the issue and pass my inspection in no time for a pretty fair price!”
