01 / INDEPENDENT EXPERTISE
Built on trust.
Backed by experience.
For more than 30 years, Able Auto Repair has served Gardena and the South Bay. Today, that legacy continues under owner and Master Technician Emiliano Mendoza.
EXPLORE OUR EXPERTISE ↓A career that came full circle.
Emiliano began his career at Able before moving into the BMW dealership environment. There, he developed specialized expertise through BMW Factory Service Training, BMW Group University, MINI technical training, and advanced high-voltage vehicle education.
He returned to Able and eventually became its owner when the longtime owners stepped away. Today, the person responsible for the shop’s technical standard is also the person who owns the business.
