Owner Kenny Nguyen is an ASE-certified master technician, factory trained on Toyota and Lexus, and every technician at LTBM works under his supervision. We work to factory spec and use OEM-quality parts, so you can have factory maintenance done here without voiding your warranty and without dealership pricing. Drive something else? Bring it in, all makes and models are welcome.

Questions we hear every week.
Do I need an appointment?
No, walk-ins are welcome Monday through Friday, 8 to 5. Calling ahead holds your slot and cuts your wait.
Do you only work on Lexus, Toyota, BMW and Mercedes?
Those four marques are our specialty, it's what LTBM stands for, but we service all makes and models, foreign and domestic: Honda, Acura, Audi, VW, Nissan, Ford, Chevy and more.
Who will work on my car?
Owner Kenny Nguyen is an ASE-certified master technician, factory trained on Toyota and Lexus, and every technician at LTBM works under his supervision.
Will servicing here void my factory warranty?
No. Under federal law (Magnuson-Moss), a carmaker cannot void your warranty or deny coverage just because an independent shop did the maintenance. We follow OEM schedules and keep the paperwork, so you have a record of the work.
Can I book online?
Yes, you can request a time online with our request form, and we confirm the exact time with you by text or call during business hours. You can also call (408) 298-7777 during shop hours or text (669) 265-8231 after hours.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Our repairs come with the LTBM Limited Warranty: 12 months, unlimited miles, on the parts we supply and on our labor. See the full warranty terms, which we also print with your invoice.
Do you charge to look at my car?
Written estimates for visible work are free. Electronic diagnosis is $180, and we waive it when you approve the repair we recommend the same day we diagnose it.
