About Cory Motors

Servicing Toyota, Lexus, Scion, Honda, Acura, Subaru, VW, Volvo, Audi

Located at 429 E Montecito St, Santa Barbara, CA 93101, Cory Motors operates as an auto repair shop serving Santa Barbara in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

In Santa Barbara, shops are busiest on Monday mornings and before holiday weekends, so a mid-week appointment gets a car seen faster. Labor rates across California vary by neighborhood and by shop type, from small independents to dealership service bays, and mobile mechanics now cover many routine jobs in the driveway. Before authorizing a repair, ask for the estimate in writing, whether the shop warranties parts and labor (12 months / 12,000 miles is common, some offer more), and whether it can provide a loaner or a shuttle. Check the listing for hours, the makes the shop works on and its Google rating, then call ahead, since walk-in capacity is limited at smaller shops.

The business lists hours on 5 days of the week. On most of those days it is open 7:30 am–5 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 (805) 965-4581. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, corymotors.com.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.9 out of 5 from 187 reviews, which is a strong result for an auto repair shop in Santa Barbara and suggests consistent service.

Santa Barbara is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. Traffic in Santa Barbara peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

The team at Cory Motors is fantastic! They’ve taken great care in diagnosing & repairing out Tacoma and Outback. Whenever I’ve called they’ve had me come right in and got me sorted quickly. The shop is spotless & the communication is great. Had everything from routine service to drive shaft replacement done, they’ve always been fair and honest in their assessment & recommendations. The team is very nice & welcoming. Thanks Cory Motors!

I’ve been bringing my vehicles in for years, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The team was professional, honest, and clear about what needed to be done. It’s sometimes rare to find a mechanic who combines this, and great customer service, but this shop absolutely delivered. Highly recommended for anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy auto repair. Cory and crew are absolutely the best of the best

I know there is a default setting in Santa Barbara for German automotive specialists. But I needed a place where I could actually make an appointment in a reasonable timeframe. I checked Yelp, found Cory and did a “drive-by”. Lo and behold there was another 912 up on the racks. It was a sign. With no appointment I was welcomed by a mechanic, the boss and the spouse. We chatted about my hopes for Dad’s old car. In short order we had an appointment. The repair was done even sooner than they had estimated. Now Dad’s old car is crazy fun to drive, which was precisely what I told Cory I wanted.

5/5 Stars – Beyond Reliable: 10 Years of Flawless Road Trips If you own a classic vehicle—especially a vintage Volkswagen—you know that finding a shop you can actually trust is half the battle. I’ve been taking my cars to Cory's in Santa Barbara for over 10 years now, most notably my 1983.5 VW Vanagon. Vanagons are notorious for needing a specialized touch, and Cory's nails it. A decade later, I have never had a single issue, breakdown, or mechanical. Because of their meticulous work, I’ve been able to confidently drive through some of the most demanding terrain in the country—from the steep climbs of the Colorado Rockies to the intense, punishing heat of the Arizona deserts—without a single hiccup. The only shop I trust with my vehicles. If you want true peace of mind on the road, take your car to Cory's. Highly recommended!
