Auto Repair for Irvine Drivers
Jim’s Automotive Specialties is a family-owned auto repair shop at 18471 Repair Ln, Suite B, Huntington Beach, a straightforward drive from Irvine.
Irvine drivers tend to rack up steady freeway miles on the 405, the 5 and the toll roads. Freeway driving is generally gentle on engines but adds up quickly on oil, tires and brakes, and inland summer heat is tough on batteries, cooling systems and A/C.
Why Irvine drivers make the trip
Some customers find us after moving from Huntington Beach and simply don't want to give up a mechanic they trust. Others work near the coast and drop the car off on the way. Either way, you'll get the same honest diagnosis, plain-English explanation and written estimate before any work.
Check before you drive over
If a warning light is flashing or the engine is overheating, don't make the freeway drive. Call (714) 962-2400 and we'll help you decide what to do next.
Getting here from Irvine
From Irvine, take the 405 north to the Beach Blvd exit in Huntington Beach, head south on Beach Blvd to Ellis Ave and turn right (west). Repair Ln is in the Autopark center between Beach Blvd and Gothard St. If you work near the coast or commute through HB, it may fit right into your route.
Please call ahead so we can tell you when we can look at your car.
