About Bothwell Automotive

Bothwell Automotive is an auto repair shop in Torrance, California. It is listed at 20730 Earl St, Torrance, CA 90503, which places it among the local businesses of Torrance that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.

Auto repair in the United States is split between independent shops, dealership service departments and national chains. Independents handle most routine work (oil changes, brakes, tune-ups, check-engine diagnostics) at lower labor rates and often specialize in one make or in imports; dealers keep factory tools, software and warranty authority; chains sell speed and standard pricing on maintenance items. Most shops charge a diagnostic fee, credited toward the repair if you go ahead, and quote parts and labor separately. Certification matters: look for ASE-certified technicians and, in many states, a state repair license posted at the counter. Written estimates are required by law in most states before work begins, and you are entitled to your old parts if you ask.

The business lists hours on 5 days of the week. On most of those days it is open 8 am–5:30 pm. Note that it does not open on Saturday, Sunday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (310) 371-5712. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from 153 reviews, which is a strong result for an auto repair shop in Torrance and suggests consistent service.

I will never take my automobile anywhere else. Bothwell Automotive at 20730 Earl Street in Torrance is one of the most honest automotive centers I’ve ever been to. Their team is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely concerned about your situation. They explain everything clearly without ever pushing unnecessary repairs. Their integrity and customer-first approach make them stand out in the best way possible. I wouldn’t trust my car with anyone else. Outstanding Customer Service!

In my 37 years of life I had never met a courteous, knowledgable, honest, reliable, and affordable mechanic shop. Look no more; Bothwell Automotive in Torrance has it all! I am beyond grateful for the support I received from Todd, Peter and all the Bothwell team. They have a great team work and the process was smooth to get my car running like new. They are experts at what they do. Thank you!

New guy Peter is a poor/untruthful communicator and was rude/accusatory over the phone. I’ve taken my families vehicles here for over a decade. The service has been excellent and the prices have been fair but I won’t be returning entirely due to the dishonesty of Peter. Let this review reflect only him and not the whole company. I was told to make an appointment after specifically asking if a part had been ordered and being told yes. I made the appointment, brought in the car, and then received a call several hours later saying the part is on back order. I expressed my confusion over the phone after making the appointment purely based on the fact that I was told the part was on hand (because I do not live near the shop, I live over 100 miles away and was only bringing the car that far because I was told the part was already ordered). I was met on the phone with a rude and accusatory tone from the gentleman Peter and no apology for the inconvenience. I’ve experienced hints at this tone from him previously but brushed them off because of the quality of service and loyalty but this is a step too far for me. I was told by him that they had the part. And here I am after bringing my car

We drive 400 miles just to take our vehicles to Bothwell. We spend out time in Phoenix, Lake Havasu, and Torrance. I don’t care if I have to have our vehicle towed 400 miles. We only trust Bothwell. They are also better priced than any other place. Tell me how many shops will top off your windshield fluid as a courtesy.

Strongly recommend! These guys are fair and honest and affordable. I had a recent engine issue. They took a look and told me the dealer could solve this and its most likely a recall. They were correct and didn't charge me a dime. I'm a repeat customer.
