The absolute BEST!
The radiator in my 1968 Cadillac Coupe deVille has been leaking for quite awhile. Been calling shops all over to see if anyone REPAIRS radiators. (My car has a HUGE 472 c.u. motor and it produces major power...and HEAT, so I didn't want plastic-tank crap or aluminum. I want what my car came with...good old American brass and copper!) The ONLY one who said yes was Steve at Burbank Radiator. (Every other shop wanted to replace, not repair). So I took the car to Steve and he pulled the radiator, took the tanks off, ordered the parts, replaced the core, replaced my lower radiator hose, flushed the system, even painted the radiator tanks after the welding...looks like a brand-new 1968 Cadillac radiator! He kept the old core to show me how badly corroded it was! He tested the whole system, then called me and told me my car was ready. Took it in Monday, Picked it up on Tuesday! (He had to order the core and lower hose...not many places stock stuff for a 68 Caddy!) Just AMAZING! AND...he gave me a five year warranty! And at a very VERY reasonable price!
Picked up the car and drove it for an hour...during the 103* heat wave...with the a/c on high...bumper-to-bumper traffic on the streets, freeway at 80 mph...back on the streets...uphills...and the gauge never went over the 1/4 mark! It has never run this cool, even in the winter, for the 7 or so years I've owned it! And it hasn't leaked a single drop since! Thank you Steve!
I'm gonna have you check out my A/C next! ;)

Got my radiator repaired here, 7/6/16. I had called SEVERAL places and all the quotes I received were well over $350. Steve, the owner, not only quoted me a price less than $300, but I ended up paying even less because I paid in cash. He had ordered the part ahead of time, and had my job done in about 4 hours! Steve is a really friendly guy, KNOWS his craft, and definitely is an HONEST businessman, and willing to to his best for his customers! He even phoned me as a follow up to make sure the truck was working ok?? Who does that??? Steve does! I know that I have found my "go-to" for any radiator/air-conditioning work on a car! THANK YOU STEVE!

As so many radiators in modern cars are plastic and disposable, most radiator shops have become remove and replace shops while Burbank Radiator is still runs by competent tradesmen. Steve did such a great job repairing a 1948 Chevy gas tank with brazed patches, I did not hesitate to have him address the AC on my truck the next day. Very happy I found Burbank Radiator and would not want to go anywhere else.

Fact:
Bob Smith Toyota quoted me $259.99 for radiator plus $250.00 labor. 05 Corolla XRS/Manual Trans.
Burbank Radiator who only deal in Auto Cooling Systems and are experts charged me $237.00 out the door with a 5 yr warranty.
This small business easily competes with
Toyota and Im all about helping our small businesses when possible.

Steve the owner of Burbank Radiator shop is the best, he's very honest, knows his stuff and gets the job done
I take all my cars to him and I highly recommend going there for radiator or AC repairs.

Went a year without A/C and with summer starting again, it was time to bite the bullet. I initially got a quote from Steve and was not charged. I tried another shop looking for a quote knowing the issue since Steve already told me. That cost me $70 and in total was $200 more than what Steve had quoted me. I finally got my car back over to Burbank Radiator. It took a few tries with a wiring issue. Not Steve's fault, but he fixed it, and fixed it again. Good, honest and friendly, and knows what he's doing. I hope i dont have to see him again, but I would recommend anyone with A/C issues to go see Steve.

Steve is incredibly honest and helpful. He also gets the job done well and quick. Highly recommend him, don't got to anyone else for A/C troubles! Avoid the Pep Boys on Olive, very dishonest.

Don't go anywhere else! Steve (the owner/tech) is absolutely wonderful - so knowledgable and honest, friendly and helpful. I know cars well as I have a classic Buick, and used to play with rock crawlers and bikes, but no longer have a garage space in which to work, so finding Steve and Burbank Radiator was perfect. He very straightforward about cost and what was needed, and even called me to let me know he could repair rather than replace my radiator, saving me some $$$. He found a few extra problems a previous mechanic had created (they used baling wire on my car fan shroud!!!). and kept them from damaging my newly repaired radiator, as well as throwing in a few details that kept me worry free. He also worked on my A/C in the past and was a pleasure to deal with then as well. Anytime I move to a new area I look for that network of car guys who do it for the love of big American V8 muscle, those beautiful classics, big nasty race engines, motorcycles and 4x4's, because those are the guys who will treat you and your car right. Steve, you are one of those guys. Thank you!

Before Yelp was on the Internet there was "word of mouth". I have been referring my customers, friends and family members to Steve at Burbank Radiator since 1998.
It all started when I was driving my 1972 (Mod Squad Yellow) Mustang and the Air-conditioning just decided to stop working in the middle of a very hot summer. I took the car to 3-4 places around the Burbank area. They all said the same thing. "You need a new compressor" The estimates for repair were between a minimum of 750 to 1,100 dollars.
Then I took the car to Steve. After spending a few minutes with the car he discovered what other mechanics could not or did not find. It was a simple pin hole leak in one of the hoses. Steve's charge? It was under 70 dollars! He replaced the hose, filled her back up, the A/C worked amazingly well and he saved me hundreds of dollars.
I have been back to Steve with several other cars all with the same result. Quality work, honesty and integrity at great prices!

I have been using Burbank Radiator for years! (They do more than just radiators) They keep my 67 Dodge cool, calm and collected. I will soon see them again for fuel line/tank servicing.
You will find old-school integrity, pride of ownership and work and a great customer service ethic here. They back their word and their work, above and beyond. Great to know there are still businesses like this, they are a rare commodity today!

This is an honest American business. Steve is the owner and primary mechanic. He does an excellent job at an honest price and I was extremely happy with the service. He saved me more than half what one of the bigger shops was quoting, was easier to work with and actually replaced my radiator faster than they would have. I couldn't more strongly recommend Burbank radiator.

Holy Hell this is a GREAT mechanic. My Dad recommended this place to me and I was still blown away by the honesty and integrity of this shop. Steve, the owner took a look at my Honda CRV and talked me OUT of unneeded repairs that EZ Lube had just recommended earlier that morning while performing my oil change, telling me I was better off saving my money. The dude literally took hundreds of dollars out of his pocket! He chuckled, looked at me and said "You must think I'm a crazy person." No Steve. I think you are a marketing genius because I have already told about a hundred people this story and am now posting it on Yelp for all to see.
Not only did Steve show me what was needed and was honest with the repair, his price was very fair-a total of $40. I WILL BE GOING BACK TO HIM FOREVER!
If you need a Radiator/Air Conditioning mechanic who will diagnosis your problem accurately, explain it simply, fix your car right in the shortest amount of time, not cheat you or overcharge you or perform unnecessary work or tell you he's going to perform work and charge you and not actually do it then you need to go to BURBANK RADIATOR.

Took my BMW X-5 to Steve and he diagnosed the problem as a simple relief valve that needed replacing. I would have paid for a whole new radiator if told that is what I needed. Steve replaced the valve and put in new anti-freeze for the cost of a dinner. I always take my car here for radiator service and have never been disappointed in service or price. Steve is very honest and helpful.

i used to work at nbc n steve was recommended by a friend there who said he is their "Go To" guy for any radiator issues for their fleet of microwave vans. he's described by another nbc friend as "completely honest." not only is that true, but he even did some "extras" which anyone else would have charged for. when you pick up your car, he even shows you what he did and explains everything in the process. nbc stands by him and so should you.

My Dad turned me on to Burbank Radiator Service-who doesn't trust their Dad? My first impression is that Steve, the owner is very honest which is rare now a days!! I've been in to see him a couple of times, and he always looks for the least expensive solution. Highly recommended. You can't go wrong here!

Drop my car off here on a Monday and talked to Steve the guy that runs this place.I had him change my radiator because I had transmission fluid in it.all in all I ended up paying about $400 bucks for everything. A lil pricey if you ask me. Also found out they left all the bolts to the radiator lose.not a place I recomend.

This is one of the best shops I have been to. My 04 F-250 sprung a leak yesterday , I called this morning asked a few questions and brought it. I drop it off at about 2pm and had it back by the end of the day. All I can is great service and Steve the owner is very friendly and helpful. I would not hesitate to send anyone here.

Asked the guy to pressure test two little radiators and he wants me to pay 25 for cleaning and pressure test. Been to many that do it for free. Gladly taking my business elsewhere.

Amazing. Wonderful, honest service at this shop. Steve is very nice. He tells you straight up what the problem is and he sees what he can do for you. He told me exactly the breakdown of the cost and was able to give me back my car the same day. They were also nice enough to give me a ride home. I am very pleased.

I trust all my cars and trucks (foreign and domestic) to Steve at Burbank Radiator because he gets the job done right. I live in Santa Barbara but it's totally worth the 170 mile round trip. He takes care of his customers. I've been very pleased with his service, reasonable estimates and attention to detail. Thanks Steve!
