Located at 61 S Capitol Ave, San Jose, CA 95127, Willard Auto Repair & Radiator operates as an auto repair shop serving San Jose in California.

Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as auto electrical service, auto tune up service, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

In San Jose, 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.

Hours are published for 6 days a week. On most of those days it is open 8:30 am–5 pm. Note that it does not open on Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (408) 729-3151. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone.

Customers rate it 4.4 out of 5 on Google across 39 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded auto repair shops in San Jose.
