We show you the broken part before we replace it.
Our story
LGD Automotive is an independent repair shop on East Main Street in Visalia. We diagnose first and quote second: if we can't tell you exactly what's wrong and why, we haven't finished looking.
That approach is why people drive here from out of town and why travelers stranded on Highway 198 end up in our bay the same afternoon they call. Dealerships quote three-week waits. We get you in, walk you under the hood, and show you the failed part in our hand.
We're open six days a week, 9 to 8, because cars don't break on a schedule. Ten reviews, ten five-star ratings: that's the whole record, and we'd like to keep it that way.
What customers say
“I had a really bad squeaking sound coming out of my vehicle. I went to a Midas and was told that my car was too old that's why it was doing that. There had to be a solution to this, so I drove all the way from Oakland to this hidden gem call LGD Automotives. Mechanic Dominic used his expertise to pinpoint the possible areas where it might be coming from. I got my brakes and rotors changed here. Once I drove my car there was literally no more squeaking sounds coming out of my car. Definitely recommend for anyone who has car problems.”
“My husband and I had a fitting for our cooling system break on our way up from San Diego to the sequoia national forest. We called a few different mechanics in the area and even the ford dealership has a 3week wait for service but this guy got us in right away! He took the time to show us exactly what was wrong so we had no questions and he didn't even charge us for the replacement part just the labor. This guys went ABOVE AND BEYOND!”
“LGD always takes care of any issues that my vehicles may have. They provide excellent service and are great at troubleshooting! Always recommend them to all of my friends and family.”
