I was recommended to Electric Ave by a friend a few years back, once I bought a hybrid....and I have never regretted taking his advice! Mike, the manager, has always provided the best customer service experience while Im there, the best mechanics in town, and the best care of my car (you do know they wash the outside and inside of your car after every oil change, right?!). My mind is at ease knowing I have found the best place in town to take my hybrid.
Henry and all the folks down at Electric Avenue are fantastic. They are very reasonably priced and keep my Nissan Leaf in tip top condition. Couldnt be happier!
Electric Avenue always provides amazing service! Customer service is top notch. Their technicians are true experts in their field. I recommend Electric Avenue to anyone who cares about their vehicle. I assure you that you will leave confident that your vehicle is in the best hands and that you will be receiving the best service possible!
Great Service! Mike is always incredibly helpful, going over details regarding maintenance to the car, and the mechanics there are all thorough in their work.
I drive a 2013 Prius. I’ll never go anywhere else. I live in North Hollywood and when I found this place I became a permanent customer. I recommend calling and making an appointment. They have a lovely back patio/covered chill spot with free coffee and water while you wait.
I had never had service on my Prius and I asked a friend who referred me here. I’m so happy I came to Electric Avenue! Harry and Mike were the first people I met and they were professional, kind, and understanding. I had to return for another issue and they were equally as supportive as my first visit. I’m happy to call Electric Avenue anytime my Prius needs service!
If you drive a hybrid, this is your must go to spot. Transparent, friendly service, feels like a family spot. Mike is always gracious and helpful. They always offer us an Uber somewhere while we wait for the car, and they usually wash it after an oil change as well. We get all our work done there and recently needed to replace a headlight. They did it in five minutes and didn’t charge us at all since we are regulars. They checked the oil too, just to make sure everything was good. I asked them to show me how to do it myself in the future, which they did, but then insisted We come in anyway as they’re happy to do it. Can’t recommend it enough.
Go here if you have a Prius! Mike is the best and most knowledgeable Prius guy in the world. I have had my 2005 Prius serviced here for years and it never disappoints. They are honest, transparent and masters. All I can say is GO!
I have been to this shop twice now for our BMW i3 over the last 6 months. Both times were simple, easy fixes and Mike didnt try to talk me into a bunch of services I didnt need like the dealership does.Trust their flawless 5 star review status was earned from the great customer experience they deliver. I will forever come to Electric Ave for my electric car service needs. *****
From the moment I spoke to Mike on the phone to schedule my service, I knew that it was going to be a positive experience. I recently bought a used electronic vehicle and just wanted to ensure that everything was working well and get a professional to look at it. Mike was so kind, thoughtful, and diligent. I will certainly be coming back! Thank you so much!
I love electric ave! They are always so friendly, keep me updated during the process and are extremely thorough in their work. Love love love
I have been coming here for a couple of years. Mike and his team work so fast and are so diligent and really reasonably priced. It’s always a professional, warm, and considerate process. Can’t suggest them enough.
Recently took my prius here for a routine oil change and the service was exceptional. They inspected my entire car and detailed the interior/exterior. While it was a bit pricy for an oil change, you get what you pay for and with these guys that means above and beyond. Highly recommend if you drive a hybrid or electric car!
Great customer service fair rates good energy experts on Prius you’ll save a lot of money like I did vs the dealership great work car washed awesome
Customer service great good place to your car to fix fast. i really like it thank you guys for your help
Brought my recently purchased used Bolt EV here just to get a baseline inspection done. They were extremely helpful with checking out the vehicle and giving me a clear idea of its current condition and what maintenance will need to be done for it in the foreseeable future. Super professional, knowledgeable, and courteous! I will definitely be returning to Electric Ave for my regular maintenance in a few months!
Staff were very personable and the service was fast.
Mike and his team are the absolute best. Reasonable prices always tossing you deals treats you like family without even knowing you if theres ever been doubts about service and price at a mechanic its not going to happen her. Strongly recommend thier services for routine check ups or even larger jobs Ive taken my car thier for everything in between and have getting great deals including find anywhere else in LA. Love Mike and his team theyre the absolute best and know more about Electric cars than alot of other mechanics out here.
Mike provides an excellent customer service. He also gave me a guarantee for the part he fixed. I Recommend this business in Los Angeles for you electric/hybrid vehicle.
Super stoked to have a place that knows my Prius and will take good care of me.
Amazing clever and honest mechanic. Fast service and original parts . Labour charges is also considered V.good . Wont go Toyota dealers any more
Nicest people. Best car mechanics I have ever had hybrid or not. They go the extra mile, give great advice, actually care about you and your car and are very thoughtful. Reasonably priced. A real joy to deal with them as they take care with my old hybrid. Never had a mechanic this excellent!
Got several items done here for 2016 Toyota Prius Three Touring. Mark worked with me. He was very knowledgeable about Prius cars. Their prices are reasonable.
Incredibly great service!The right place for your hybrid.Mike, you are the best!!!The best and quickest service.
Great service, great prices, free car wash. I take my 2016 Prius there because they specialize in hybrids and electrics. It was stressed to me from others that even getting an oil change from a regular mechanic can lead to serious problems because of how unique these types of cars are. This includes the dealership, because the majority of cars they service are going to be regular combustion engines for the foreseeable future. I like having someone who has a garage full of Prius, and other types of hybrids and electrics, working on my car.
Mike, who runs Electric Ave., for hybrid cars, is truly the best and so pleasant. The service is impeccable, the prices are reasonable, and its so clean you can eat off the garage floor. I know Im well taken care of and trust them. Koko, the owner of all three auto shops, Electric Ave, High Tech Auto, and Sublime, is one of the kindest, smart, and most professional mechanics in LA. He is very generous in giving back to our community in Silver Lake. We have been going to all three of his shops for over ten years and never disappointed.
I called and told them what was wrong with my wifes 2012 Prius and they told me it was probably the Hybrid battery but they also told me it was likely still under warranty (I thought the warranty was expired) and they game a number for the dealership and even gave me the name of person I should speak to. I called and they had me bring it to the dealership. It turned out they were correct and the dealership replaced the battery at no charge. If I had gone somewhere else they might not have been as honest and probably would have paid several thousand to replace it. The saved me lots of money.
Great place for all your hybrid needs, after your warranty runs out.
Mike and the Electric Ave. team are courteous, prompt, and go the extra mile with their pick-up and jand washing service. More than my Insight deserves!
Mike took great care of me from start to finish. Highly recommend Electric Ave to any Prius owner. Great service, great value, total pros.
Mike the head hancho is great. Service was effectively completed on my 2013 Nissan Leaf. Drives so much better!! I even was treated to an uber to pick up my car!!!
Mike and his mechanics are professional and honest. My 2010 Prius runs great thanks to the service recommendations from Mike. 222k miles on the original battery! Electric Avenue has fair prices and they stand behind their work. I trust them completely with my Prius. The shop is also clean. I highly recommend!
Mike and his team are to best
The only Prius mechanic I trust in LA. Have tried so many other shops but Mike is the only guy who I can trust will get the job done properly and do it for a very fair price. Hes very honest, very flexible and very knowledgeable. Definitely the place to go if you drive a hybrid!
Brought my vehicle in for a timing belt/waterpump service and the vehicle was ready by the next morning. There was a minor issue that was corrected by his team the next day without charge. I would recommend others to Electric Ave Silverlake
This is one of the few places where I wish I could give the vendor more money. Mike is always courteous and timely. My care rarely has any real issues aside from lights on my dashboard popping up - a true characteristic of any BMW (i3). I wish Mike had a sibling with the same work and business ethic that worked on combustion engines.
GREAT TEAM OF MECHANICS - Extremely clean shop. A great team of mechanics from the shop manager Mike to the technical crew, Mahar, Harry and Joon. Thank you guys for repairing my car and keeping me informed about my 2007 Prius.
Drove away really happy. Mike helped me out in a pinch and moved some stuff around to accommodate my emergency when he didn’t have to. Friendly service, a fair price and very fast. Would recommend. (Also lovely indoor plant in the office!)
First time using electric ave. Mike and staff were super helpful. Car is running great, definitely bringing my car back next time.
No need to look elsewhere, this is the place to take your prius
ExceptionalI am so impressed. Electric Avenue is thorough, professional, efficient, very pleasant to work with (kind, good sense of humor), and their pricing is quite reasonable. To top it off, they washed my car and gave me a ride home and back, no waiting. I am completely won over. I cant imagine going anywhere else. Why would I?
Great experience. 1st time customer, I came because the air stopped flowing in my car. Mike took care of me the same day, for a very reasonable price (lower than either of us expected). He took care of a Lyft dropping me off and picking me up, was attentive, warm, honest, the car was washed, and we joked about the origins of both our family names. Highly recommended, Ill definitely be back whenever my Volt needs anything.
Great customer service!I trust this place, customer service is great! Mike, the Manager has an extraordinary ability to run the shop so smoothly and efficiently. Just try it and you will see for yourself!Marina B.
Electric Ave is my to-go shop. They have fixed my Prius numerous times. I really appreciate Mike and his colleagues; they are very attentive and professional. I would recommend this business to all my friends and people I know. Thank you Electric Ave for being so awesome and making me feel an appreciated customer.
As far as I can tell, this is a great shop. They dont do the up sell nonsense or at least didnt see that. They do what is needed and tell you what might be needed down the road. Friendly, kind and helpful. A great repair shop.
Love this team! Mike is the best.
Best place where if you have an electric/hybrid vehicle. First time I ever went there felt welcomed and very informed about everything that was being done to my car. Customer service is the best and they have it on the dot.
This is the best repair shop ever ! Mike and Harry are competent, trustworthy and nice. I wouldnt even consider going somewhere else. Everyone I have recommended them to, havent stopped thanking me. You wont be disappointed once you find Electric Ave.
Great service. Honest work.
Theyre the best!
Many thanks to Electric Ave. repair shop, even though its never fun to have car problems, I never mind having to go there as its always a pleasant experience. Mike the manager is such a sweet guy and very knowledgeable, always kind and ready to help. If anyone out there needs to take customer service lessons, go to Electric Ave. and observe! Their prices are reasonable and theres never any pressure. They also pay for a Lyft drive to and from, if you need transportation. Full service at Electric Ave, I highly recommend them.
Mike and his team are excellent. They are not only pleasant, but they are incredibly honest and good at taking care of your hybrid car. With your first visit, you are a part of Mikes extended family. Mike keeps a clean shop, his prices are extremely fair and reasonable, and his communication is the best! My 6-yr old Prius runs like a dream. I highly recommend Mike and his whole team, they are the best around!
I had a great experience with Mike, he is very nice, professional and knowledgable, provide excellent service and really show he cares about the client.
One of the best mechanics in the city! Ive had an overall very positive experience with these guys. Friendly, helpful, and honest. If you own a hybrid or electric vehicle oh, this is the place to bring your car. Accept no substitute!
Everything positive you may read on various online review sites is true. Unequivocally the best shop you will find to care for your vehicle needs and your ease in getting work done on your busy schedule. Mike is the very best. I wish him the very best in his business. Hes great for our neighboghood!
Had a wonderful experience at Electric Ave!! Mike was so professional and attentive to detail. He paid for my Lyft ride home, and he maintained great communication with me to let me know when my car was ready for pick-up. Will definitely be a regular customer here!! :)
Mike was so helpful and the service was so quick and so affordable for all of the things I needed done. I live on the other side of town but its definitely worth the drive to take my car somewhere I trust. This will be my go-to from now on.
Echoing all the extremely positive reviews. Have also gone to Koko for years...trust him and his shop and always highly recommended them. Now hybrids are repaired at Electric. Mike is the consummate gentleman, knowledgeable, trustworthy, kind...I can go on with superlatives but Can he be cloned? Only mechanic Ill go to.
Electric Avenue was helpful and professional. They seem to really care about their customers. Will definitely be back.
Even though I moved to the west side, I still made a point to visit electric avenue. Mike was able to service my car and get me back on the road quickly and affordably. I can’t recommend enough!
Great and professional service. Affordable prices and honest shop. Been here several times for different issues and they saved me thousands that other mechanics tried to charge me. Highly recommended.
Mike was an absolute pleasure to work with. I came in to have the shop install one of their custom catalytic converter protection cages on my 2007 Toyota Prius. Each detail was explained and offered with knowledge and in the care of my best interests. Thorough, efficient, and trustworthy. Even comped my Lyft rides to and from work, and included a free car wash. Super clean shop was nice to see as well. Excellent experience, all in a day. I will be returning.
Electric Ave. is the best electric/hybrid auto shop in Silver Lake! Harry and Mike go out of their way to make sure that all work is done in a very timely and professional matter each and every time you visit. Since my warranty with Toyota expired on my 2015 Prius, I have only had it serviced at Electric Ave. and I am 100% extremely satisfied with all the work and service that they have performed. This includes replacing all 4 tires, wheel alignment, oil change, flushing and replacing the coolant, replacing the cabin filters and cleaning the area that cools the interior.These guys are pros and they are straight shooters. Do not hesitate to bring your electric/hybrid vehicle here for service. I am very happy that I chose to.
Very pleased with the service provided. Thanks again Mike for your honesty.
This place is a wonder. I saved more money here than I spent. The dealership wanted to charge me $300 more than I paid for my 100,000 mile service for my Toyota Prius C. Mike even indulged me when I asked him to do the exact same inspection as the dealership and to write it out in my service notes the same way, Im being a stickler while still under warranty. He did keep my car all day, but ordered an Uber to send me to my office. Plus they washed the inside of my car just as well as my favorite car wash and my dealership NEVER did that (they would even forget my exterior carwash sometimes). He even gave me reuseable grocery bags and bc I think its such a exemplary business, I actually use them.
I have been is mechanic for the past two years they wash your car and take care nicely,but the price super high for low income, like me is too much Money the repairs??$$
Mikes the best. Our Prius loves Mike and Electric Ave :-)
Very professional,honest and friendly
Wayyy better service than going to a dealership with your electric car... And for literally a fraction of the cost! People were knowledgeable, friendly, and honest!
Electric Ave is amazing and Im so happy Ive found this place! Mike is an incredibly kind and patient person and everyone there does great work on my car. Yesterday, I dropped my car off before an event I needed to attend and I was going to order an Uber to get me there, but Mike ordered it for me instead, which was thoughtful and above and beyond what he had to do. In addition to repairing my car yesterday, he also took it in for a wash, which was again above and beyond what I expected from him. The last time I took my car in, Mike informed me that my front brakes were wearing out and needed to be changed and I explained that I was going through some financial trouble that month as it was the holidays and it always gets more difficult that time of year, but instead of pressuring me into replacing my front brakes, Mike explained that they had a little bit of life still in them and I would definitely need to get them fixed the next time my car needed maintenance. I appreciated his honesty and understanding and I find Mike to be trustworthy. Their prices are reasonable and I would highly recommend this location because Ive been to many mechanics and these guys are without a doubt the best ones Ive worked with so far.
I wish i knew about Electric Ave when i had my first hybrid! Extremely helpful and professional staff. Theyve fixed my vehicle numerous times with their straight forward and timely service, and especially friendly staff. Would highly recommend to all electric and hybrid car owners!!
I had driven by numerous times and thought that looks like a great shop. When it was time to service my Prius I gave them a call. From the moment I talked to Mike on the phone I felt great. Upon dropping off my car I was really taken with Mike’s professionalism and knowledge. I couldn’t be happier with my experience. I’ll be taken my car here from now on. Thanks for making it so easy!
A breath of fresh air compared to dealer service. No hard sell. They answer questions and did a great job at a reasonable rate.
After having some bad experiences at Toyota of Hollywood, I found Electric Avenue. All the good reviews drew me. When my headlights stopped working, I called them, and Mike told me to bring my car in, and if the bulbs were out, he would replace them for FREE! So I brought my car in, and even though the shop was super busy, I left within 5 minutes with working headlights having paid NOTHING! He also checked my oil level to make sure it was good.This shop puts customers first, not money. If you ever need hybrid/electric car service, come to Electric Avenue. Mike is so courteous and kind, and the price is right. I will be returning!
Quick service, tire rotation
Mike was very patient with me and saved me money on the repairs after he went out of his way to find out that I had an extended warranty for the part that needed replacing. If you have a Prius or hybrid / electric car - dont bother searching anywhere else.
This mechanic, Mike, gave me a great deal, was courteous and efficient. Ill be back for sure!
Love these guys, so friendly and smart! My grandson dropped my Prius key into the dogs water. Just like that it quit responding. I dried it and tried to get it back together but no good. They put a new battery in my key fob, put it back together nicely and it worked, glory be!!! Also, no charge! Today I’m going back to replace my ruined tire, hope it goes as smoothly!!!
Excellent service.Very professional & knowledgeable staff.
I never went to this shop but I only called to ask which car is more better cause im planning to buy prius or insight. Harry gave me a lot of information including warranty and maintenance. Very professional, nice, and patient. Thank you so much Harry!
Reputable, reasonable, caring and kind. They made me feel so safe and well taken care of. Truly grateful!
***** I’ve Never Been More Happy With Mechanical Service On My Car. My Prius had electrical problems for almost a year, and I would take it to shops that could only fix the problem for a month or so. It’s been well over 4 months and I have ZERO electrical issues. I am so happy. I trust the team here, and will continue to have my car serviced through Electric Ave. Thank You So Much!!!
Phenomenal Experience! My fiancées 2006 Priuss Hybrid Cell Battery died and Mike refurbished it WITHIN 8 hours. He beat Toyotas cost by 50%, and tripled the length of Toyotas warranty! Not to mention, Mike is probably one of the kindest mechanics Ive ever met. Truly an honest and trustworthy individual. He even washed the car before returning it! Electric Avenue is probably the only mechanic shop in Los Angeles Im going to from this point forward! The place is so well kept, that it doesnt even look like a mechanic shop.
Mike is an incredibly likable guy and a pleasure to work with
Honest and affordable. Willing to work with you to help you out. I am now only going to this mechanic
Excellent service. Would definitely go back with my Prius.
If youre looking for a mechanic you can trust, who wont try to upsell you when all you wanted was an oil change, this is the place. My 17 year old Prius needed a new hybrid battery and they replaced it within 2 business days at a far more reasonable price than a dealer.
I have taken both of my Gen 2 Prius to Mike at Electric Ave. with very different issues and he has been able to diagnose and fix the issues in little to no time.Most recently, on my 2nd Prius which I bought in May 2019, I was having misfire issues and the misfires didnt go away after I changed the spark plugs and tested the coils. I decided to call Mike at Electric Ave and he was able to quickly set me up with a date to troubleshoot. Soon after he called me and explained the issue I had and quoted me a price. Having just bought the car I wasnt ready to throw money at it and I had just paid my monthly expenses but Mike was very understanding and didnt pressure me or charge for the diagnostics.Luckily I was able to allocate money and Mike fixed it the next day. The car has been running good since then. Believe me just like me you can trust Mike with your hybrid car needs.Thanks Mike.
Really the Prius experts. Fast reasonable gracious service.
Excellent service, they provide a Lyft to your house and back, wash the car and do a great job!! Thanks guys Mike was extremely helpful
We have brought in our Prius three times and our Kia Soul EV once so far, and the service has been fantastic every time! Mike and his team are flexible, patient and professional on every level. We plan on continuing to bring our vehicles to Electric Avenue for the foreseeable future!
Took my 2007 Prius to Electric Ave after my regular neighborhood mechanic did a terrible tune up job. Electric Ave went through my Prius with proper tune up, installed correct Sparks plugs & coil, replaced fuel injector, replaced all the struts..... My car came back to me purring like a kitten... I love driving my Prius once again! Thank you Mike the manager & mechanics at Electric Avenue....
Best auto repair shop I have ever taken my vehicle to!
Excellent service as always!
No complain at all. Mike and Harry are simply the best!
Mike and his team are top notch. I had three separate check engine lights come on in my 2004 Prius. I took it into Autozone to get their free check which came back empty (warning to any hybrid owners.) I called 8 different mechanics. Electric Ave was the only one to offer a free diagnosis, the best price on the worst case scenario (dead hybrid battery), and they could see me immediately. After running tests, turns out it was a dead battery. Mike and his team rented me a car for the next 3 days so I could easily get to work, but ended up finishing up the repair the next day! Free oil change and car wash to go along with it. Thanks so much for the help guys.
If you have a Prius or other hybrid or electric vehicle, dont go anywhere else. They know their ish, and diagnosed the problem I had been having with my Prius immediately (while other garages and even the dealership had no idea what was going on). Got my A/C fixed and they did a great job.
Ive known Koko for years and trust him completely (enough to have had him work on my beloved 66 Sunbeam Tiger) . His son Harry at Electric Ave. was happy to confirm my diagnosis of a dead 12v battery (the small one in the rear of a Prius) in my wifes Prius III and sell me an excellent replacement. Patronize either shop with confidence!
Love this shop - family owned and you certainly feel the love! I wont take my Prius anywhere else!!
