Auto Repair in Carson, CA
Torrance Motors serves Carson drivers with complete auto repair and maintenance — gasoline and diesel, domestic and import. Our Torrance shop at 3707 W 190th Street is an easy hop across the 405 or straight over on 190th and Victoria, and our second location in San Pedro on Gaffey Street covers the south end of town. Two shops, one standard of work.
Auto Repair and Maintenance for Carson
Between commutes on the 405, 110, and 91, trips past CSUDH and the South Bay Pavilion, and the industrial routes around the refineries, Carson vehicles work hard. Heat, mileage, and heavy traffic take a toll on cooling systems, brakes, and transmissions faster than most owners expect.
We help you stay ahead of it with mileage-based maintenance and accurate diagnostics when something does go wrong — always with a written estimate first, and always backed by our 12-month / 12,000-mile parts and labor warranty.

Genuine or OE-equivalent parts on every job, covered by a 12-month / 12,000-mile warranty on parts and labor.
