Professional solutions tailored to your specific needs — delivered with expertise and care.

Your hybrid's battery is its heart. When it starts to fail, you might notice reduced fuel economy, warning lights, or a lack of power. At Sam Auto Hybrid, we specialize in hybrid battery testing, conditioning, and full replacement for all makes and models – Toyota Prius, Honda Insight, Ford Fusion, Hyundai Sonata, Lexus, and more. We begin with a complimentary state-of-health test to determine if individual cells can be reconditioned or if a complete replacement is needed. Our process uses refur...

The engine in a hybrid works differently than a conventional car, often cycling on and off, which leads to unique wear patterns. Common issues include blown head gaskets (especially in older Prius models), EGR system clogging, and piston ring failure. At Sam Auto Hybrid, our engine repair and replacement service starts with a free computer diagnostic and compression test. We send you photos of any damage – like a cracked cylinder head or bent rod – and explain your options. If a rebuild or repla...

Hybrids use regenerative braking combined with traditional friction brakes, which creates a unique service requirement. If you hear grinding, feel a pulsing pedal, or see a brake warning light, it's time for a professional inspection. Sam Auto Hybrid provides complete brake system repair and maintenance for all hybrid models. We start with a free brake inspection, including measuring pad thickness, checking rotors, and testing the regenerative braking system. Because hybrids often go longer betw...

I GOT SCAMMED AND SCREWED!! I recently purchased a pre owned hybrid vehicle from ‘ ES power’ from Fadi who works with Sam on the pre owned vehicles that he sells. A new / refurbished hybrid battery has just apparently been installed the month prior. I have paperwork and the date was also shown on the battery. Less than 2 months later the battery faulted and my own local mechanic diagnosed it with multiple faulty codes showing that it was a bad and wrong HV battery. Sam and his shop refuse to accept any responsibility, fault or blame. Yes, It is past the 3 months warranty for the battery but the principle and fact that they are overlooking thins without any acknowledgment, offer to assist, meet in the middle or handle the situation is deplorable. Me, I have to spend money on am HV. Battery, maybe 1500. Them…they have to live with knowing that they are unethical and practicing bad business. How sad and embarrassing

I brought my 2010 Toyota Prius to Sam Auto Hybrid in Costa Mesa, California because the engine was shaking badly everytime you start it. Angel diagnosed a blown head gasket with coolant leaking into the cylinder and even sent me pictures of the damage. He also found a bent piston rod and gave me clear repair options with fair pricing. I went there and confirmed everything Angel had reported on the phone and also to better discuss my options going forward. Since I’m in the market for a new car, I decided to buy a low-mileage used Japanese engine from LA-JDM in Long Beach, and Angel and the team supported my choice 100%. They actually have fully rebuilt Prius engines but they’re professionals and never pressured me to buy those. They installed it quickly—within a day—and now my Prius drives like new with better MPG! The shop owner Kourosh and his wife were incredibly kind and hospitable, offering drinks, snacks. If you’re looking for a good Christian shop, this is it. Angel also provided a free loaner Prius with unlimited mileage while mine was being worked on, which was a huge help. This shop is honest, professional, and truly cares about its customers. Highly recommended, especially for hybrid owners!

I highly recommend this shop for hybrid car work. We’ve recently had to replace the hybrid battery on our 2015 Hyundai Sonata, and then had some major engine work completed by this shop. This shop is very professional and I really appreciate that the technician sent photos and status updates as they worked on the car. They even recharged the AC system for us! Their pricing seemed very fair compared to other estimates we received on the same work. We will gladly go to them again for any issues with our hybrid car.

Very great customer service and incredibly transparent! I needed a lot of work on my 2012 Prius but didn't want to do it all at once. They were honest about how long I could wait for certain services and gave me a copy to take home of what we could do in the future. 10000% will come back
