S & AAuto Repair

About

Built for people who actually care about their cars.

Our story

Why we opened this shop.

S & A Auto Repair has been on Rosecrans Avenue in Hawthorne for more than thirty years. Family-run from day one. Most of our customers have been with us for at least a decade that’s the only reputation that matters in this business, and we earn it back every visit.

Two things set us apart: your computer engine diagnostic is free, every visit, and we’re the South Bay’s oil leak shop. Free diagnostics because we want you to see the data and decide. Oil leaks because thirty years of finding leaks the right way tracing the actual leak path, not guessing at the drip is hard to replicate.

Beyond that, we’re a full-service shop. Brakes, tires, alignment, scheduled maintenance, engine work, transmissions all done with dealer-grade diagnostic tools, and a written warranty on every job. Honest work, honest pricing, no upsell pressure. That’s the whole pitch.

We want the shop to feel different the moment you walk in. We give an honest answer when something doesn’t need to be fixed. The work is the same as the dealer. The experience is better. The price is lower. That’s the whole pitch.

Team

The technicians who actually work on your car.

Every job in the shop is signed off by a named technician — no “the shop” doing the work. Here’s who you’re trusting.

  • Abul

    Founder and Owner

    30 years experience

    Learned the trade overseas before coming to the United States and founding S & A Auto Repair in Hawthorne over 30 years ago. He built the shop on a simple promise honest diagnostics, fair pricing, and treat every car like it belongs to the family. The South Bay is home now, and the shop is his way of serving the community.

  • Tony

    Lead Technician & Manager

    20 years experience

    With over 20 years on the shop floor, Tony runs daily operations and leads the diagnostic side of the business, working with Autel and other modern scan tools to handle the kind of complex electrical and drivability issues most shops send back to the dealer.
