Hubbard's is meticulous, efficient and fair. They finished my car repair, which I brought in on Wednesday by Friday around midday. That included sending the mother board for repair in Canada. I couldn't recommend them more. JoAn B. read more

From my first phone call to them to me picking up my car after repairs was totally seamless. When I called to make an appointment they were attentive and professional. I was scheduled within a few days. Dropped my car off at 8:40 am and received a call less than 2 hours later that the repairs were done. Cost came in exactly as they had quoted me. Very satisfied. read more

I just wanted to thank the team at Hubbard's Auto for going above and beyond today. My 19 year old daughter was on a road trip from Seattle to Indio, CA in her 2004 Jetta Diesel TDI. She pulled into a gas station outside of Eureka to fill up and the car died and would not start. I had it towed to Hubbard's and they did a full diagnostic and figured out the issue and got her back on the road. They didn't even charge for their time. Thank you, Truly Grateful Father read more

Great mechanic, James. I did not catch the name of the man working in the front office but he was very polite and informative. Pretty fair price for the job. Good value. read more

It can be a challenge having a foreign car in an area with no dealership in sight. I got the 5-star treatment at Hubbards. The entire staff is friendly and knowledgeable, they were able to get me in and get my car repaired in time to make it home for the holidays. Thank you Hubbards and your amazing staff!!! read more

My car was damaged underneath from driving it out in the country, and was leaking oil. A nightmare when we were due to return to the Bay Area the next day! I knew I probably would not find a VW dealer in Eureka, but the tow truck driver knew about this place. They were great! Friendly staff and competent mechanics. They ordered the part needed and had it fixed the next day. read more

I have been to Hubbards before to get repairs done and the were so professioinal. This time my tale is a sad one. My car was in a flood and there was nothing to be done. The guys there were so nice to me because I loved my car and I cried when they told me. All I can say is a big Thank you to the crew at Hubbards they are the best. read more

We have a 2012 Mini Cooper S Clubman, so we frequent this establishment. :) Anyway, each time, they were professional, and diagnosed all issues quickly and correctly. Accuracy is important because it saves the customer money. We had recall items they were honest informing us about. They told us straight up, we could replace them, but if you took the Mini to the dealership, the part would be covered once they confirm the issue. They could have done the work and made money on us, but they told us the truth and took care of our needs. This is our place for technician work from here on out. If you want good service from honest people, you should take your vehicle here. 5* is all I could give but they do better work than that. They are awesome. Booked out a few weeks sometimes, but that should tell you something. read more

Great friendly staff who were able to diagnose and service the problem with my car efficiently and effectively. I highly recommend mechanic especially for German cars! read more

My Volvo had a warning light that another shop wanted me to drive to Santa Rosa to have fixed. Hubbard's took care of it in an hour and refunded me the charge for the diagnostic when they found out what it was. They are great read more

Despite Covid and dropping in without an appointment they were able to give us peace of mind on a long road trip. Check engine light came on and tire pressure was wrong, they were able to quickly diagnose the problem and fix the tire pressure in a car they weren't familiar with. They did all this without any cost, great service! read more

This place sucks!!!!!!! Never ever trust them with your car!!! They will rip you off big time I am beyond fucjibg pissed off at Hubbard's I demand my $1600 back to fix two separate parts two different times! For the same problem! Fuck you guys! Better bet I'm getting eveyone I know to write the worst review possible I am pissed off fuck you guys I want my money back you pieces of shits! read more

By far one of the best Audi mechanics in Nor Cal. Hubbard's has kept my 06 A4 purring with 250k+ miles. In depth Audi knowledge, fair prices, and consistent quality service are the 3 main reasons Hubbard's is the only shop I will let work on my car now. Rich's passion for vintage skateboards is a hella dope bonus. Thanks guys for keeping me on the road. Enjoy the Ride! read more

Horrible experience! Nico is was pretty rude. If you do get your car serviced here and you're not a repeat customer just make sure you're clear on the work you want done. They called me suggesting work. I refused. Then when I came to pick up my car I was charged for the work they recommended that I did not authorize There aren't many shops in town that deal in German auto repair so you may just have to bite that bullet. read more

Cannot say enough good things about everyone at this shop. I was told by another repair shop my car needed to go to Santa Rosa to the dealership for a new computer and the check engine light was on. I was concerned about driving 4 hours with the warning light and James told me to drop by and they would check it out right away. Turned out rats had chewed a wire to a sensor and James was able to fix it while I waited. Was also able to get an appointment for a full diagnostic test. These people know their stuff. My Volvo has a new shop to call home. read more

Thank you! My daughters mini cooper broke down in Arcata (she comes home to San Francisco for the summer) she was stuck. She originally took the car to Firestone where they wanted to charge her almost 50% over the cost of the parts, and didn't even properly diagnose the problem! I called Hubbard, and even though they were booked solid for the week, Nico said they would help the kid out. They were kind, efficient, and most importantly really honest. It's becoming increasingly rare to find honorable business owners that also know what they are doing. Thank you Hubbard! When my daughter goes back up to HSU for her next semester, it's a relief to know that she has a reliable place to help her with her car. Our family is grateful and impressed! You guys are the best! read more

I purchased an older Porsche in Eureka, Ca and my original plan was to have it shipped down closer to where I live to have one of the better Porsche shops in the Sacramento area freshen it up. Well, right in the middle of the wettest winter that California has seen in years... I come to find that getting a reliable shipping company is next to impossible. Plan B, have the car go into where it's been serviced for 20+ years and have John and his crew freshen it up and get it road worthy. I was expecting the worst and budgeted for it. I Asked John to replace some parts that I thought might need to be attended to... A replacement job that would cost a couple of thousand dollars right off the top. John called me back and informed me that the parts that I was worried about were fine. What kind of mechanic who knows they have a client that WANTS to replace some items, tells them they don't need to be replaced? An HONEST mechanic, that's who. There were other issues with the car. Some needed replacement right away and some could wait. Realizing that my new car was in competent hands, I figured I was ahead in the game and had Hubbard's repair everything. Great price for all the work as well. I highly recommend Hubbard's for whatever maintenance or repairs you might need. read more

I don't know what to say that would adequately describe what a great auto shop this is. Nico, John, and Turk turned my disastrous road trip into one that got me safely back on the road in record time. They were thoughtful and genuinely cared about the work I needed done, as well as, answer any question I had. They really are remarkable! read more

took my Volvo to them for years. NEVER AGAIN. one occasion was told my Volvo engine was damaged beyond repair / non-op. and then was "reassured" they would take it off my handS if I just signed over the pink slip. A few months later, I got a notice from Visalia Police department stating my Volvo had been abandoned in Visalia. Contacted Hubbards and they acted "confused". They LIED to me and never "took care of the pink slip at DMV" They SOLD or GAVE AWAY my "non-operable" STILL OPERATING car to their buddy whom was able to DRIVE it all the way down to Visalia and ABANDON it, with my name still on the pink slip. These guys are SHADY LIARS. read more

I had the best auto service experience ever in the 35 years I have needed an auto mechanic.

John and Jim are simply put amazing at what they do, and are also some of the most genuine and fair people around. My Porsche boxter had a cooling light come up and they were kind enough to help me out even though they were booked the whole week. Definitely visit their shop! read more

I was not in a good mood...period. My brand new Mini's check engine light came on, and I am four hours from the nearest Mini Cooper dealership. So I thought, well, let's see if anyone here in Eureka works on German cars, and Hubbards pops up on my iPhone. So I called and spoke with John who said just bring it in and we'll look at it. Long story short, less than TEN minutes after I parked it in front of the bay I was out. Mini's are a little glitches...what can I say. But John was wonderful and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone else who was also having a bad day with their car. read more

The staff here is knowledgeable, friendly and honest. John, the owner, really knows his stuff and is super easy to deal with. Honestly, anyone who owns a German vehicle and lives in Humboldt County would be making a mistake by taking his or her vehicle somewhere else. read more

John is a good tech and great guy to deal with. Facility is a little under staffed but has great potential. And they have good knowledge of the makes they work on. read more

I highly recommend Hubbard's. A friend is borrowing my 2006 Jetta and they have been so kind and fair to him. I know a little about cars and it is abundantly clear that they are being honest and efficient. For example, today they fixed the door wiring harness (common jetta problem) for around $95 rather than the $400 it would have cost to replace it. Similarly, the engine was throwing a turbo code; for less than an hour of labor they fixed it (easily could have told us we needed a new turbo.) Thank you Hubbard's!! read more

I've been here for parts, and advice for a long time. Working with them on that level is hit on miss. I got to a point in my repairs that needed a lift and a technician that was familiar with the mechanicals involved in the 5 and a half hour process ($hop time). I asked for a few things to be checked out, and John responded with "we offer a full inspection for $100". I knew that I needed a new transmission when I dropped it off , told that to john and requested a overall inspection. waited 4 business days and had to call them . I was told that I needed a new transmission and charged $25. as someone that knows some thing about the subject, I was more than dissatisfied with the lack of services rendered. and for the record I never needed a new transmission, just basic maintenance for a 27 year old automatic transmission. updating the o rings read more

I bought a car from Jim who works here. It was the biggest mistake ever. He told me he re built the engine and seemed like a good guy. i have had nothing but problems with the car. I have had to put almost as much money into the car as I spent on it. I wish I would have walked away from this car because it was a horrible deal and seriously regret buying it. read more

What a great experience! Driving north in a Mercedes Sprinter van, near quitting time on a Friday, and a light comes on threatening imminent doom. We call Hubbard's from the road (only German-car shop within a lot of miles) and although they don't deal with that model van often they said to come on in and they'd see what they could do. Friendly reception, a little research, and the necessary fluid poured into the car, quenching the ominous light. The repair may not have been much (and they charged very little for it), but the attitude was fantastic. Many thanks and much appreciation. read more

We were in transit from LA to Oregon with a revived 560SL when we developed brake problems. John and his crew were obviously backed up with work, but they found the time to order the parts needed & get us back on the road by the next morning. Very professional shop. Judging by his work load and the interaction I observed with his customers he has a well deserved & loyal client base. read more

100% recommend! I first went to Antich Auto in Eureka, and BMW in McKinleyville, and Hubbard's blows both away, by far. The most friendly and reasonable. Didn't even charge me for a diagnosis, and gave me free bottles of steering fluid I needed until my next appointment. Everything was simple and smooth, I never knew going to the car shop could be such a breeze. read more
