Isaac Guevara2025-03-29 I showed up for an oil change because I heard that they had really good prices and they took my car right away and had the oil change done quickly. When I paid it was the cheapest oil change I've had in years! The customer service was amazing everyone there was incredibly friendly and helpful! SIRC9092025-03-27 This has been my go to mechanic for quite some time. They’re absolutely the best. Especially Angel. He’s very informative and quick to respond to any issue. Very affordable for what they offer. Everyone here is honest and works really well with their customers. Definitely check this place out if you own a Prius. Monkey2025-03-27 It’s been a few months of coming to Sam Auto Hybrid and I thought it was about time to write a review. This place makes me feel respected and above all, comfortable. I don’t have to worry about unreasonable prices and I feel like my car is in good hands. Thank you to the Sam Auto family for all that you guys do! Saied Fathi2025-03-27 Excellent management and quality services they offer yahya Arhani2025-03-19 One of my coworkers recommended me this auto shop, and I have been looking for a trustworthy and reputable place and I truly believe I have found it. This is a beautiful family business I am proud to support. The boss, Kourosh, is a very generous man who was able to provide me a very reasonable price for my overhaul engine. My 2016 Prius V Four is now running beautifully and I cannot wait to return to this shop for all my mechanical needs. Thank you Sam Auto family! Lust Sprays2025-03-06 Very great customer service and incredibly transparent! I needed a lot of work on my 2012 Prius but didn't want to do it all at once. They were honest about how long I could wait for certain services and gave me a copy to take home of what we could do in the future. 10000% will come back Andres Montoya2025-03-04 Always a wonderful and smooth experience. I first dropped by for an oil change when I found them online, but they have been extremely helpful with all of my vehicular needs! Steelpulse13232025-02-28 Sam Auto Hybrid located in Costa mesa knocked it out of the park. Angel and SAM got my vehicle back up and running quickly and were a pleasure to do business with. I recommend this company if you have any hybrid battery problems/toyota prius. Carolina Valdez2025-02-21 This mechanic shop is simply amazing! From start to finish, they have taken such great care of me and my car, making me feel completely confident that I’m in good hands. When they gave me back my car, my whole family thought I had gotten a brand-new one—that’s how incredible their work is! Beyond their top-notch service, I truly appreciate their honesty and fairness. I never have to worry about being overcharged or mistreated, which gives me so much peace of mind. I can’t recommend them enough—thank you for always going above and beyond! Carter Reeves2025-02-11 Straightforward, good pricing, would come back again 100p

kelly f.2025-03-21Verified This was my second time coming here for an oil change on my 2015 prius. i waited less than hour for the service. the guys who work there are very friendly and quick. it's very affordable as well. they put a sticker on your windshield when it's time to come back. i'll be going here from now on. Paige P.2025-03-05Verified After taking my car into the dealership and spending endless amounts of money, I decided to give Sams Auto Hybrid a shot. I'm so happy I did the entire staff has great communication and makes you feel very comfortable and explains the entire process to you. Angel is great and was able to answer all of my questions. Alan M.2024-12-11Verified I was going to another nearby hybrid specialist close to Sam Auto Hybrid. (I won't mention name). But I give the edge to Sam Auto because they seem to be better organized in my opinion. The last time I had my car serviced for half a day (ABS) they offer me a loaner car. Their waiting room is comfortable and has guest wifi too (so I can use my laptop to work). They also go over the details like pros and cons going with a refurb part. It helped me make a decision since my car is very high mileage Prius. Jose G.2024-11-29Verified Angel and his team do a great job! They replaced my engine this past FebruMary and I've been con here for oil changes every 3,000 miles to ensure the warranty remains intact. they are highly recommended! Babak J.2024-11-20Verified Had the best experience with Sam Auto Hybrid. Dealership quoted me a huge cost for Hybrid system repair while I had it done with Sam Auto almost 60 percent cheaper with the same warranty. Koroush explained me the issue promptly. He was professional, punctual and honest. I highly recommend him. Irene M.2024-10-23Verified Everything and everybody was so pleasant there. Had a great experience and they fixed my car :) Thank you guys. Yuji K.2024-09-11Verified I'm not much of a person to leave reviews but the customer service here warranted one. A+. Thank you to Angel and the team at Sam Auto Hybrid for making me feel taken care. Friendly and fast service. Cody M.2024-08-30Verified I took my Prius to Sam's auto hybrid and they were so informative and extremely professional. Angel worked on my car and took pictures of it throughout the whole process, keeping me in the loop made me feel super supported and confident at the work being provided was top notch. Definitely recommend this place they transparency is hands-down. The reason why I chose this place. Thanks again for the wonderful service and my Prius is running so smoothly without that weird noise! :) they also worked with me on cost and gave me options. Thanks again Wen L.2024-08-07Verified As a girl, it's difficult to go to auto shops alone out of fear of being ripped off or talked down to, but this was the BEST experience I've ever had at an auto shop! Everyone here is so personable and kind. Sam at the front desk is amazing and made sure I had everything I needed while I waited, and Mr. Angel who worked on my car did an incredible job. The owner greeted me while I was there and is very respectful. My service was completed quicker than I expected too! I 100% will be coming back here every time I need work done on my car. Their communication and genuine attentiveness makes me confident that I will receive an honest and good quality job on my car. Thank you all!
