This shop is awesome and the customer service is amazing! I initially spoke with Daniel the Service…read moreManager and he was very courteous and helpful. My car was making some weird sounds and I had to leave it there for a few days so they can look into it. They found some other maintenance work I needed so I chose to do some other services as we couldn't figure out exactly where the other noise was coming from. I took the car home and the other noise came on again on the freeway so I recorded it and emailed it to them. I dropped my car off the next day and also spoke to the owner Tony who is a great person. He was very patient, calm and ended up finding out what the issue was, and got it all fixed for me. It was nice to work with Daniel, the Service Manager, and Tony, the Owner and help find out exactly what was going on with my car. I really appreciate their customer service and honesty. Daniel was very helpful and clear in communication. I was happy to talk to the business owner Tony who was very kind, patient, understanding, honest and I love the fact he was willing to take time to have a conversation and get to know each other as people. I like getting to know the actual business owner so I know who we're supporting in business. And Tony and team have definitely earned our business. I highly recommend this shop and will definitely be taking my cars here moving forward. Thank you Daniel, Tony and team! God Bless!

I cannot recommend The Garage enough. I brought my 2022 Subaru Crosstrek here for a second opinion…read moreafter a local dealership tried to scam me into a $2,000 "engine teardown" and thousands in unnecessary cooling system repairs. The team at The Garage was professional, honest, and technically superior. While the dealership claimed my radiator and hoses were failing, The Garage actually tested them and proved they were in perfect health. Instead of guessing, they performed a resistance test and found the real culprit: a faulty VVT Oil Control Valve. It is rare to find a shop with this much integrity. They didn't just fix my car; they inadvertently gave me the evidence I needed to hold the dealership and corporate accountable. If you want a mechanic who values honesty over a quick buck, take your car to The Garage. They have earned a customer for life! Also shout out to Daniel - super great to work with and very kind.

So the place I was hoping to go to that's super cheap could not have my vehicle in until another week and a half. I tried to schedule it sooner but was told the wait time would be 45 minutes to an hour. Neither the wait nor the date could work for me, and I'm so glad it didn't because I wouldn't have found Gary's! Gary's was able to see me the same day without making an appointment, and the whole process was literally 15 minutes. Not only did they change my oil, they also washed my windows and vacuumed the interior--both complimentary! Needless to say, I am very impressed with the service I received at Gary's. They really went above and beyond my expectations, so much so that I'd be more than happy to pay a little extra to continue going to them in the future for my oil changes. The icing on the cake was when the person (didn't catch the name... shame on me) who rang me up sent me on my way and thanked me by name. (Since I work in the customer service industry, I have to give shoutouts when I receive genuine customer service!) Way to go to the team at Gary's--incredibly impressed!

The owner Huey has hybrid training and is very easy to talk to because he explains exactly what is going on with your car. He changed my 12 volt battery with an OEM replacement, did a complete inspection including brakes, plus an oil change. The price was very reasonable. Also, his oil change price is less than Valvoline. Nice young mechanics working for him. I felt like I was well taken care of and at the same time I supported a family business.

What I really appreciated was that as soon as Scott saw me come in - he came to the counter and said "I'll be with you in a few mins". I really like when people recognize me when I enter and don't ignore me until it's my turn. Makes me feel valued! My oil change went smoothly, I believe my car was looked at for more than 15 mins unlike most other places I go to so that made me feel like they were being really thorough. However I wasn't expecting it to take two hours from when I arrived to when I left. I'm not sure if they are always running late/slow or if this was a special occasion (first time here) but I was a little frustrated towards the end that it took that long. When I finally did get my keys Scott gave me a discount because it took so long and I really appreciated that. With the compensation for having to wait and the friendliness of the staff I'd give it a 5 as far as where to get your oil changed! I've gone to a lot of places and most places are the same, this one is one of the few I like. However - I'd recommend they get some snacks in the lobby for the customers who were there longer than me! I was hungry when i left and most places have something people can eat! :)

**WARNING* this goodyear tire store IN RENTON is consistently negligent and will cost you time and…read moremoney. I have been a loyal Goodyear customer for 40 years. But the product and services have been sharply declining with little/no concern from the stores or corporate (similar issues that resulted in the fall of Sears & Roebuck). On schedule, I had my tires rotated on 3/3/25 at the Renton highlands store where they did not replace the center cap securely on one of the wheels. It fell off and the store had zero interest in taking responsibility. So, I wrote to Kimberly Roy at Goodyear Corporate who pushed the company into paying $83 for the lost cap that I had to replace. THEN, I had my tires rotated again at this same store on 11/6/25. Same manager and same problem with poor workmanship. Shortly after this rotation, one of the caps fell off, again! I reported it to the manager (Jorge) who would not take responsibility, so I wrote to Kimberly Roy again. This time, neither the store, nor corporate were willing to take responsibility, probably thinking "I" was the problem. I replaced the cap as quickly as possible and TODAY, May 4, 2026, the cap still rides securely in its place (picture attached, taken May 2, 11:10 am). I stopped buying tires from Goodyear because of horrible service and products. Les Schwab, a truly great customer service company with great tires and warranties, recently offered to rotate my "Goodyear" tires for free because I bought truck tires from them and will buy Les Schwab tires for my Buick as well when needed. Incidentally, one of the Goodyear tires on my Buick also must have a bad cable or other defect, because neither Goodyear nor Les Schwab can get the vibration out of it. The Goodyear shop "claims" they cannot feel the vibration and refused to replace the tire. I have been extremely impressed with the service and tires at Les Schwab. Goodyear is not paying attention and does not care. I WILL NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH GOODYEAR AGAIN - I SUGGEST YOU TRY LES SCHWAB EXCELLENT SERVICE AND TIRES...YOU WILL ALWAYS DO BUSINESS WITH LES SCHWAB.

They did a small adjustment and hoped it worked. 7) Few weeks after, still had a noise. Took it back and they asked for $99 diagnostic. Since I had no other choice, had to go for it.

I gave up and took my car to Infinity car service in Bellevue and learning that the replaced pads had poor quality. These pads were not OEM parts!!!

Not only did the court find their work faulty (including issues with a transmission they serviced), but even after losing, they still have not paid what they legally owe. This is beyond unprofessional -- it's dishonest. The court clearly determined that their service was faulty and that I was entitled to compensation. Yet here we are, still waiting. If a business refuses to follow a court order, what does that say about their integrity? If you're considering taking your car here, think twice. If something goes wrong, you may end up in the same situation -- paying out of pocket, going through the stress of court, WINNING... and still not getting your money back.

It was this 1990 Mercedes that he parked in his carport since 2019. This was the first luxury car that he bought when he first moved to the U.S. more than 20 years ago. My dad was a mechanic in Thailand. He also used to sell luxury cars like this to many politicians in Thailand after he graduated from law school. He loved cars and he knew how special 1990 Mercedes is. I trusted my dad's judgment about cars so I know that this 1990 Mercedes must be an amazing car. It was so difficult for me to find a mechanic in nears my house who would help me restore my dad's car. Then someone told me about Schmitt Automotive. Frank and Mark helped me restore this car. They didn't just help me fix the car so it can drive again. Frank helped me restore the car to the point that it's no longer leaking in the trunk, the radio that didn't work now is working great. It's amazing beyond amazing. Frank took care of this car as if it was his own car. It's rare to find a mechanic who is kind, honest and meticulous like Frank. It was very easy to communicate with Mark to get updates and etc during the process. I finally drove this 1990 Mercedes yesterday for the first time after Frank and Mark helped me fix it. I was so impressed how amazing it is to drive this car. I test drive the newer luxury cars earlier this year and now I own 2 different cars (one is an EV). Nothing is compared to driving this 1990 Mercedes that Frank and Mark helped me restore. I feel so grateful for the team at Schmitt Automotive!
