I would like to say Mahalo to the staff at 808 Safey!!! I found myself in a bad situation resolving a safety issue with my car. It would not pass inspection. They advised me on what I could do to solve the issue. My husband is fighting cancer and was unable to help fix it. Only but for the grace of God and 808 they helped me. The car was fixed and it passed!!! Best customer relations on the westside. Mahalo from Erin's West Side TNR. read more

So long as you're legal and everything is up to date it's a super quick process with no nonsense. This place is the epitome of convenience.

These guys are amazing and can do so much more than just safety checks!! They are honest, skilled professionals when it comes to automobiles. To start, both Thomas and Joe were very responsive to inquiries, phone calls and updates. The AC in our van was out, and it also had known suspension and control arm issues, as well as a check engine light. We were quoted thousands of dollars and multiple hours/days of labor to complete the work needed from the dealership and other shops. After a diagnostic, we scheduled a drop off and Thomas was able to do everything in just ONE DAY, at such an affordable price!! Our van is now running better than ever. If you're wondering if the drive to the west side is worth it... IT 1000% IS. We'd easily sit in peak rush hour traffic just to see them only. Don't even bother inquiring anywhere else and just call them now! There's a reason they have 5-star reviews, and they've gained another lifelong customer. They deserve all the business and blessings. Thank you Thomas and Joe! read more

Their service was fast and easy, they knew what they were doing. I will recommend this place to all my family and friends!! Very nice people! read more

Service of annual safety check was not only quick, it was thorough. Quality of srvice was top-notch with the tech doing it all, including mak8ng sure the tight papers were presented, then updated correctly. Value for excellent customer service here is top notch. read more

They'll scan your vin, look up your history, inspect your vehicle and get you back on the road in under 30 mins. Great service AND no frills or up charges. read more

Took my Escalade in today bc it was having starting issues. I didn't catch his name, but he was very nice and immediately solved the problem. I am forever grateful for his service. This place is a hidden gem in Waianae. Glad it's so close by. read more

The place is hard to find a little bit even though it right of the main drag. And have an open mind as it looks run down but form follows function and rest assured these guys are professionals and they're quick and they know what they're doing. Don't let the view bother you besides its West Oahu - you are not expecting to find the Taj Mahal are you. The west side beauty is present in the people and its present in nature / adv the ocean environment - not so much in man-made stuff! Official safety check station yes - they do a good quality job and the guys are very knowledgeable and they are quick and it's usually not crowded so go there with an open mind and get a safety check by these guys & bring them your business not the large places that are all pretty and have clean waiting rooms. They don't have a waiting room because you don't have to wait. read more

Instead of going through my dealership who would've charged an arm and a leg. I gave a good brother of mine a call for some mechanical issue that I had been ongoing for couple months. He knew right away what was the problem and told me what was needed to get the job done. Despite having the wrong part in hand my guy made the initial effort and call to get the right part on the way. Mahalo to Thomas and the staff of 808 safety. The time and effort that was put into getting it fixed has now been resolved. Now who want the smoke jk. Would recommend anybody who is in need of any auto repairs on the west or on the island. If there's a will, 808 safety is the way read more

Joe and his crew are great and I'll definitely will be going back for my vehicle maintenance needs. Super professional, quick and great pricing. Thanks again to you guys! read more

Came in today to check my truck brakes since it was making a squeaky sound. Found out I needed to replace my back brakes. Was told it would take 20 mins to get the part delivered and about an hour to replace it. I was in and out in less than an hour 50 mins to be exact. No noise coming out from the truck anymore smooth and silent will definitely be coming back mahalo Thomas and the other worker for fixing my brakes today much appreciated!!! Definitely worth every cent. read more

See all

These guys are open 6 days a week and are awesome for safety checks! It's not fancy, mind you. It's basically on the side of an old grocer store in Maili outside of the owners trailer home (I think it's his home?) The turn off is easy to miss if you've never been there before, but they do have a huge banner on the fence advertising the business. Although it's not fancy, it is extremely convenient. They are closed on Sundays but are open pretty late in the days during the week and I believe they close in the early afternoon Saturday. There isn't a huge wait as if you were to go to Jiffy Lube and it's not overly busy (but their lot can be a tad bit crowded for parking so proceed slowly into the lot) so walk ins are more than welcome, just pull into their tent. Professionalism wise although it was just the owner before looks like he hired more guys and they have uniforms now. Nice and casual atmosphere, per the owner everything is official and certified. They do car maintenance, safety checks etc. This is the only place I go for my safety and it's totally worth it read more

Best customer service on the west side. Quick and easy safety check process. Thanks again guys for the great customer service.

They take you in real quick and do a great inspection job! Very friendly workers and very helpful!

If you're looking for honest and friendly service on the Westside than look no further. These guys do an awesome job with what they got. The system their running is efficient quality of work is top without feeling that you're being had. I live 2min from them and use to go to these other well known spots in Waianae but was always over charged and under serviced. Ol'School kine business helping his neighbors and not getting his pockets fat off of skimming. My plus is brahdah is a Army Veteran a +++++ to me anyway. Aloha&Mahalo read more

No need for an appointment. Arrived at 8ish before their official start time and to my surprise were already open for business. Was the first safety of the day. Drove up, provided all my necessary documents, the tech did his thing, and within 20 minutes, I passed my safety and was on my merry way. read more

They do more than just safety check. You need an honest mechanic, go see these guys! They are not out to gouge anyone and will talk to you about what can be done if you don't have the $$$$ to spend. Joe does not take shortcuts and does quality work! HIGHLY recommended! read more

I live in Koolina and needed to get a car safety check. I normally go to the one in Kapolei but the wait and line was super long so I took a chance @ 808 Safety Waianae side. Boy I'm glad I did. Got there 8:30am no wait. Immediate service. Top notch! Professional, honest, very personal, thorough and fast. I also needed a oil change which they took care of and Bula noticed I had low pressure on rear tire which he plugged and fixed immediately. This team of 3, Joe owner, Thomas co-owner and Bula mechanic tech muscle, are the best! Great find. I'll be back. P.S. Kinda hard to find use your GPS. --Jack read more

From now on I'm coming to 808 Safety, recommending them to all of my friends and family read more
