Dave Hernandez opened Los Gatos Auto Service in 1993. He loved wrenching and learning about cars, but he really loved helping people. His goal was to take the stress out of car care by focusing on people first.
Dave knew early on that to truly help people, he had to stay ahead of the game. Technology is always evolving, and we’ve made it a point to evolve right along with it.
Every oil service starts with a multi‐point digital vehicle inspection that we share with you. The technician’s notes, photos and videos let us show you exactly what we’re seeing. It’s how we keep you in the loop on your vehicle’s needs and catch issues before they become big ones.
We’ve all been to shops that hand over a list of repairs and expect a decision on the spot. That’s not how we like to be treated, so we don’t do that to our customers. We take the time to listen, to explain, and to build relationships through trust.
We’re happy we’ve sparked your curiosity. Like the card said, it’s nice to see what car care looks like when you are the priority and not just your vehicle.
And once your visit is wrapped up, you’ll leave knowing our work is backed by our 3‑year, 36,000‑mile nationwide warranty.
At the end of the day, that’s what a good partnership is: honest conversations, mutual respect and knowing someone’s in your corner.
If you’re coming in for the first time, we’ll take $20 off your first service.* It’s our way of saying “Welcome” and showing you what’s possible.
