Yesterday, I took my car in to Leale's to have the light on my dasboard checked out. Of course, I was hoping that it was nothing serious but needed to have it fixed even if it was! I found Mark and staff VERY accommodating, pleasant and so very helpful. They thoroughly gave my car a full inspection, which I didn't expect, at no extra charge AND what they did find was a spider and her eggs blocking some tube connected to the fuel and emissions that prevents poisonous fumes into the environment. I hope I explained that correct... read more

I would have spent 2k only to break down in the near future. – I had my 1999 toyota towed in for their free evaluation as to why it wouldn't go into gear. They spent some time inspecting everything and said that the transmission was worn out and that the engine was really tired as it had over 180,000 miles on it. But car looked great with excellent interior and body. I would have spent up to 2k to try and get it running again, but they advised that in my case it may be wiser to invest the 2k in a newer used car and sell the ... read more

I called them back to say how happy I was! – I've recently been to two other shops trying to get my 98' diesel truck running right. Both wanted to give it a complete and very expensive tune up and a complete rear brake job. On my last try I went to Leale's. They said the rear brakes were fine, but just needed a spring. All the engine needed was new glow plugs and now it starts easily and runs great. Neither shop notice that my front end was in terrible condition. I got a good price on the rebuild and after driving home that ... read more

Beware of Leales RV San Jose – On June 14, we had trouble with our Gulfstream that had a fan clutch engaging too often. We parked near Leales at night based on the advice of a member of the Eagles who said several of their people used them. I did find that a vacuum hose had been disconnected so when we drove the vehicle it seemed fine. No fan clutch problem. Since we were across the street, we decided to let them check it anyway. Then we got Ralph (their mechanic). First we were told they had to change the thermostat because... read more

The office seemed well organized and the administrator was very kind and professional. The shop was well maintained too. I felt the cost was fair. The diagnosis and repair was competed in a timely manner. The staff was very helpful and friendly. There was a genuine sense of hospitality which I much appreciated. I would definitely recommend this shop to others. It's difficult to find an auto shop you can trust. I 'm hoping my search is over. I look forward to doing business with them again.

Leale's Transmission & Auto Repair – I could no have been more pleased with the service. I brought the car to Leale's because I have known Mark Welch for nearly 10 years and I trusted him to give me an honest evaluation of what needed to be done to my daughter's car. He prioritized everything and allowed me to make the final decision. I cannot begin to express now grateful I am for the care that was taken to insure that my daughter's car would be safe for her to drive.

Stay Clear of These Guys – My vehicle needed some minor tranny work. They did not preform the job they quoted me for. After they "so called" worked on my transmission They were suppose to replace the pan gasket and filter kit (parts I was charged for). How do I know they did not do this? Guess where I found the brand new filter kit and Gaskets at? NOT installed on my car...IN THE TRUNK. How do you work on a transmission without changing the pan gasket and filter kit? You Don't! They did not do the work they quoted me for. Th... read more
