The best shop for the European cars. I've been taking my cars here for more thn 10 years and was never disappointed! Great work guys!

Eduardo is an absolute wizard!

I had an issue that multiple shops couldn’t solve for weeks. Then someone recommended this place.

Within an hour of dropping off my car, he knew exactly what the problem was—apparently something that happens to these VW models at a certain age. Even more surprising, the wipers and airbags were both tied to the same issue.

A few hours later, I was back on the road, driving home happy.

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending you to friends.

I love this team. They are my go-to for all of my cars, do fantastic work, and are super fair with their pricing. European cars are expensive and complicated to repair. I've never felt like I've been price gouged, and the quality of work is always top notch. Can't recommend them any more highly than I already do.

Eduardo and the team at Fremont Foreign Auto are exactly the kind of shop that's hard to find anymore.

I'm a DIY mechanic and made a small but costly mistake on my Mercedes E-Class — missed one part during a water pump and thermostat job, which caused overheating. I called several shops for help and every single one insisted I buy a new water pump from them before they'd touch it. Eduardo was the only one who actually listened, asked the right questions over the phone, and said "come on in."

He worked with the OEM part I already had, kept my two-day-old components that were in perfect shape, ordered a fresh gasket, and had everything sorted same day — with an honest estimate upfront and no surprises at pickup.

What I appreciated most was the respect. No condescension, no upselling, no making me feel stupid for my mistake. Just a team of guys (shoutout to Martin too) who knew what they were doing and treated me like a capable adult. That's rare. I'd drive two hours back just to give them my business again.

Amazing service, they dont waste time to make more money, everyone is so friendly! I definitely recommend!!

Amazing Auto Repair Shop.
I highly recommend them.

This is the Only place to take your car in Fremont. Honest, friendly and professional shop. Work is guaranteed! Can't beat it !

We have been coming here for years, trustworthy shop that is very communicative and knowledgeable. Thank you Eduardo & Team for all you do for our cars.

Highly recommend. Treats everyone well. Fair and get your value. Trusted.

If you own a Volkswagen—especially an air-cooled vintage Beetle—this is the place for service. My 1966 VW Bug is a daily driver for my kid, so when it developed front-end issues, I needed a shop I could trust. I initially thought it needed a new ball joint, and very few shops can handle that kind of work anymore. In fact, Fremont Foreign Auto was recommended by a wheel-and-brake shop in San Leandro that wouldn’t touch an old Bug.

Eduardo, the owner, quickly diagnosed the problem and came back with good news: the ball joints were fine. What the car actually needed were new tie rods and a steering damper, along with a rear main seal to address an oil leak. Eduardo is a true car guy—he owns a ’60s Bug himself—and he had (or sourced) all the parts needed for a fast, fairly priced, high-quality repair.

What really impressed me was the pride he takes in his work. When I picked up the car, he had also replaced several cheap hoses and swapped out old screws for new ones—tasks that weren’t even on the quote. Knowing my kid drives this car every day, I genuinely feel better having it in safer condition… or at least as safe as a ’60s Bug can be.

I’ve found my forever shop for my Bug. Highly recommend Eduardo and Fremont Foreign Auto.

Highly recommend this repair shop especially if you have an AMG, they're so professional and efficient on fixing 3 of the fuel injectors of my AMG GTR, took me 3k less compared to the dealer (Jesus). And helped me fixed broken wires bitten by rats without charging. They also recommended some nice items for my car to maintain a better engine health.

My RX 350 is here now for a stalling problem. Eduardo has been exceptional with working to find my issue. You can't go wrong bringing your car here. I know my car issue is difficult because it has no codes/check engine light and Foreign Auto Repair shop has been wonderful in not giving up and being determined to resolve my stalling. Thank you so so much in advance Eduardo and team.

The best shop in the bay area. If you have a classic foreign car you cherish, you have found your mechanic. Edwardo, the shop owner, was prompt, knowledgeable, proactive, thorough, and friendly. Although the shop was extremely busy, Edwardo responded to my sense of urgency and was able to see me the same day. Unrelated to the reason for coming in, Edwardo noticed and tightened a loose valve cover bolt. Once completed, he pressure cleaned the top half of the engine. The extra care was refreshing.
The quality, timing, and cost exceeded my expectations. I’m a fan and loyal customer.

Eduardo is a great guy front desk ladies always on point they even know you by name

Eduardo and his team are the most hard working and honest team I’ve met, and they go above and beyond for a meticulous job! They completed several projects on my new Land Rover Defender and Rivian R1S. I will entrust them with all our vehicles, and would highly recommend them for any vehicle service!

I had a fantastic experience getting my Ferrari F355 repaired at Fremont Foreign Auto Repair, all thanks to Eduardo. His knowledge of these cars is truly impressive, and he handled the repair work with incredible attention to detail.

What really stood out was his thoughtful approach. Not only did he fix the issue perfectly, but he also found a way to do it that was cost-effective, which I greatly appreciate. It's clear that he's not just doing a job; he has a genuine passion for his work. Eduardo is also a very honest person, which made the whole process a pleasure!

This has got to be one of the best shops I've ever done business with. Such great service and amazing people. Would definitely recommend this place to all my family and friends.

I, an old single woman, went in because I thought I needed new brakes. They took a look at it and showed me that I didn’t. They then explained why it felt that way. When I asked them how much? They responded, “nothing”. It gives me peace of mind knowing how honest they are!

Thank you, Eduardo! I can honestly say you’re one of the kindest people I’ve met. I brought my car in today for a quick diagnostic—even though you were busy, you still made time to help me out. You walked me through everything clearly, used a stethoscope to rule out a lifter issue, and explained how a real lifter problem would sound.

It’s rare these days to find a shop that’s honest and genuinely cares. A lot of places just try to make a sale, but here, I felt I could really trust the service. I’ll definitely be coming back for any future car needs. Seriously, explains why this place is busy and full of cars.

Thanks again, sir!

this shop is honest, responsible, and does quality repairs, even though I live an hour away from their shop, I would go to them for repairs.

Another shop quoted me lots of extra unnecessary repairs for my car (Mercedes S600), Fremont Foreign Auto gets straight to the point, and fixes the issues, their service and communication is really good, they would test the car to make sure everything is ok before handing it back to me, their price is reasonable, and no upsell for extra repairs.

100% recommend this shop

This is a long overdue review. As a British motoring enthusiast, I came to Fremont Foreign after British European closed. I had to find a shop that knew the Jaguars and Land Rovers the way Nick and Carol did, and thank goodness they do. Not many may know, but Eduardo was the one that was helping them out when Nick was out for health reasons, super commendable.

He and his team are true gearheads that not only have the passion, but a thorough understanding of what makes our cars tick, literally. They're not just a service manual workshop, they are car doctors. There's not many shops left like this, which is why you'll also see many classic sports cars around like Alfas and Porsches. I believe they are also one of the only shops in the greater vicinity that work on Deloreans.

On top of all this, the office staff are very courteous and attentive. I also appreciate how Eduardo is honest and always trying to look out for the customer, looking for any ways to make it the most economical.

Had my MINI towed in for a failed thermostat that FFA put in last year. They covered parts & labor, as advertised. Right on.
Sherry was golden . . down-to-earth, super-nice person, clearly the manager-type, a real-multi-tasker. Thank you, Sherry.
Alex was . . well, Alex was nothing short of phenomenal. He took the time to explain additional, recommended work to me and its benefits - in detail - clearly & politely. Wow. Thank you, Alex.
Bring your foreign car here ?? YES . . with confidence.

Not sure if this review ever got posted, but it's OK, because I have more to add: I can't thank Eduardo enough for his care and concern - going well beyond the call of duty to help me with (yet) another problem with my Mini. This guy is gold. Top-notch.

This shop was recommended to me from 1,000 miles away. They are well known and worked in my car same day when I needed a PPI for a purchase. Out of state customer and they made it so easy. Eduardo was great. Thanks yall!

I had the pleasure of having my car diagnosed by the Owner Eduardo. When I say pleasure, I mean it. He is a magician in figuring out what needs to be done with the least amount of money to be spent on fixing the problem. I would highly recommend you to have your car taken to Fremont Foreign Auto Repair shop for a refreshingly honest bunch of people to work on your vehicle.

If you're looking for an honest, top-tier repair facility, Fremont Foreign Auto is the place to go. Eduardo and his team handle every repair with care and precision. Each time I walk into their shop, I'm greeted with warm smiles, and it's clear that they genuinely value their customers. The attention to detail speaks volumes, and I've sent all my family and friends their way, knowing they'll be in good hands. Trustworthy, reliable, and professional—that's what you can expect.

Eduardo and the team have been extremely helpful on multiple major Porsche services I've had done here. Out of all the mechanics I've been to in the bay area, this one has been the best by far both in terms of quality, price and communication.

This is a fantastic shop. When all of the other shops in the Bay Area would not even look at my car, Eduardo called me personally and ensured that he could get my car up and running again and he did just that. Long story short, one of my cars was down for almost 6 months with a serious misfire on 3 cylinders. I took my vehicle to his shop and within 1 month, the car was up and running again perfectly and it only took that long due to having to order parts from my tuner. Eduardo never made excuses, always called me back promptly, never overcharged me and always had a smile on his face every time I showed up.

These characteristics show a lot about his shop and the expert mechanics that work for him (Thank you Merwin for your help as well as his wonderful customer service ladies, they are professional and excellent at their job). I will be making a YouTube video advertising this shop to people in the Bay Area; but I had to leave a detailed review here showcasing my appreciation for the excellent work that Eduardo and his team did on my Genesis 5.0. Thank you is not enough. I won't go anywhere else except here from now on if I have issues and you shouldn't either.

Best mechanic in the Bay area, bar none!

Best shop around! They will always do the right thing and make sure you are taken care of the right way.

Took my car in because something hit underneath my car and it was making a loud noise. Eduardo jacked it up right on the spot when I got there and pulled a piece of plastic off that was dragging and that was it!! That was awesome! I told him if anything ever goes wrong with my car, I will be bringing it to him for sure! Some shops will tell you anything just to make money especially if you’re a woman. Not this one quick and honest and didn’t even charge me anything! What a great guy!

I had a broken fuel door cable latch that Eduardo fixed in five minutes and didn't even charge me anything! Prompt service, very friendly environment. I'll take my car there for my next oil change and service. Thank you Eduardo!

It was really quick service, we can easily get appointments, they did almost all checks and they are providing detailed service information afterwards…

I have known Eduardo and his team for 25 years. Not only is Eduardo a genuinely a warm and caring individual, he is extremely knowledgeable about cars (and motorcycles) as a whole. He is always fair on pricing and is an accurate diagnostician. I have owned several Jaguar cars as well as other foreign autos, and he has fixed or maintained every single one. He even took care of my Mother's Cadillac. I couldnt love Ed and his team ( Sherry, Erin and others) any more than I do. He is my ride or die mechanic and friend for life. Thanks Eduardo!!!

Today I noticed a coolant leak in a coolant hose on my Vanagon. I pulled into Fremont Foreign Auto and within a couple of minutes, Eduardo had replaced the hose and topped off the coolant and I was back on the road. Eduardo was extremely knowledgeable, professional and prompt. Will definitely be going back! Thanks Eduardo!

The most professional shop I've found in Fremont. They are very communicative and up front about what needs to be done to your car. I do a lot of my own work so I have somewhat of a critical eye and I've always been quite satisfied with anything they've done to my car.

I have a 2003 PT Cruzer Turbo and I cannot say enough good things about how Fremont Foreign Auto has always done a great job of letting me know what and why something is wrong and then telling me the price and how long it will take to fix it. They always let me know when there's something that they will keep an eye on because it doesn't need fixing at the time but needs to be watched. Everyone is very friendly and helpful always. I know that if they tell me something needs to be done, it needs to be done. I trust them completely to be honest and truthful. Thank you all for all that you do everyday to make your customers happy. I know I am very happy my car looks great.

Eduardo and his guys repaired our trucks and van a couple of times.
Everyone there works very hard fixing our cars and charge us only the necessary parts.
Very experienced / highly skilled and honest team.
Proud getting our cars repaired there!

Very efficient staff, very helpful, reasonable prices, with long term relationship with clients.
Highly recommended for service.
Best wishes !!

Such an amazing experience. I brought my car just to get an estimate on the cost of replacing a broken water tubing for my windshield washer. The owner came out and looked at it and told me, "this is easy". He started working on it with another mechanic and after a few minutes, he asked me to test the washer and it was working properly again. The part of this story that I thought was incredible was when he told me that all the work they did, including the materials were FREE! For the owner of this shop, not only he has great skills, more importantly, he has a great heart!

Best service in the Bay Area!

Eduardo at Fremont Foreign is a top notch mechanic! Excellent communication, honest, and he did the work quickly and professionally on my Audi A3. Price-wise, Fremont Foreign is neither cheap, or priced outrageously. However, for the quality of work they do, it's very reasonably priced. Highly recommended!

Fremont Foreign Auto team is the best there is. You can tell when someone loves what they do. I would recommend it to everyone. From a Fiat to a Ferrari. They can do it all.
