The Shop That Told a Customer to Skip the $2,700 Repair
Other shops quoted $2,700 for an oil pan replacement. We found the real cause — a $500 crankshaft seal fix. That is how L&C Automotive has operated since day one.

L&C Automotive Service started on Franklin Boulevard with a simple idea: be the shop we would want to take our own cars to. No mystery pricing. No unnecessary upsells. Just honest diagnostics, fair quotes, and repairs done right the first time.
Our customers regularly save 50% or more compared to dealerships. If a job takes less time than we quoted, your bill goes down. If you do not need the repair, we tell you. These are not marketing promises — they are what our reviews say, unprompted, over and over.
"Glad to have an honest and dependable auto repair in Sacramento."— L&C Customer
Eager is the first person you will talk to at L&C. He walks you through what is wrong, explains your options in plain language, gives you an upfront quote, and follows up after the repair to make sure everything is running right.
"Eager was great in keeping me informed of the quote and any additional findings. The original quote was maintained."— L&C Customer
Joy approaches every vehicle with the kind of precision that catches the real problem — not just the obvious one. The $2,700 oil pan job that turned out to be a $500 seal fix? That is Joy digging deeper when other mechanics would have stopped looking.
"My car is running like a champ and no leaks."— L&C Customer
Jessie combines reliable skill with the same commitment to doing right by the customer that defines the entire L&C team.
"Thanks again Eager and Jessie. We really appreciate it."— PJ and Rose

"We as a community need a shop like this one right here to succeed. It's a great advantage for the community who has to get from A to B."— L&C Customer
A straight answer, a fair price, and your car back fast. That is what every visit to L&C looks like.
