This review is regarding the experience I had with Neue Auto last week, when I brought in my car to…read moreget the key warning light checked out. The key warning light had come on in my dashboard a little over a week ago and has stayed on ever since. After doing some initial research on the internet about what it could be, I began to get concerned that it could potentially be a safety issue later on. All the worrying prompted me to send an inquiry out via Yelp, and Neue Auto was the first to respond, saying they're able to take a look at it. They were up front with their diagnostic fee and had an appointment time available the following morning. I brought the car in the next day, and Alvin (their service advisor) checked me in. I explained what was going, and he said they would run the diagnostics and see if they can figure out what the root cause might be. They offered a courtesy one-way Uber ride to get to where I needed to go, so I didn't have to wait at the shop, which was very much appreciated. After the shop ran all the tests, the results came back inconclusive (i.e., test findings indicated no error codes that could be causing the key warning light to turn on). Alvin took the care and time to explain everything they did, in great detail. Alvin was very transparent and provided his professional inputs regarding the situation. He recommended to just keep monitoring the situation, since no error codes were showing, which were related to the key warning light. He said, at this time it's too early to say what exactly is going on, as other symptoms would need to present themselves in order to figure out a precise fix -- and this is regardless of whether it is getting serviced at Neue Auto or some place else. Given that they couldn't find anything wrong, they waived my diagnostic fee, for which I'm extremely grateful. Even though the diagnostic findings didn't reveal anything, I am appreciative for the time and efforts that Neue Auto put in to investigate the issue. At least I have a little more peace of mind now, knowing the vehicle is still safe to operate (even with the key warning light on) and that it won't suddenly die out on me while I am driving it. Thankful for the reassurances that Alvin gave me regarding my concerns. Mahalo again to the team at Neue Auto for their help and in-depth assessment! Pros: complimentary one-way Uber ride, honest and informative feedback Cons: only open Mon-Fri, and the shop location is tricky (i.e., tucked in at the end of a narrow alleyway, so coming and going might be challenging, especially when it's busy and full of cars, as the tight thoroughfare is shared with a couple of other auto shops)

Neue Auto is a rip off and I'm still so pissed off about this that I finally decided to post it…read more This incident actually occurred in 2023 when I had a Kia Forte, which I no longer have because the repairs that they charged me over $800 for were not effective. On top of that, they would not let me take my car home that Friday (because I worked weekends) or they were gonna charge me an additional $150 to RE-assess my vehicle AGAIN that Monday. So in addition to the $847.80 that they charged me I had to rent a car which costed me an additional hundred something dollars. My car kept dying as I was driving, and I had previously had a AAA read out that said that my alternator was fine. Neue Auto insisted that it was the alternator and the serpentine belt that needed to be replaced and guaranteed their work. I authorized them to do the work because they insisted they were the professionals, but this did not fix the problem. I attempted to remedy this with the manager and instead of doing things in writing so I could have documentation he insisted on calling and trying to smooth talk his way out of the promises that his business made. Needless to say I had to replace the vehicle. The reason that I am saying that they're a rip off, is not only because the vehicle was still presenting the same problems, but also because this is what they sent me as "proof" that my alternator was not working. Please keep in mind they never actually gave me this receipt for the readout, and it's stapled to a bunch of other receipts that I have no idea what they are. To sum it up, avoid Neue A uto or risk unethical business practices that don't actually fix your vehicle but still take your money. I would've given them zero stars, but that's not possible. *** EDITED TO RESPOND ** Fast forward to now - Like I said, I'm still so pissed off that YOU - Nick, owner/manager promised that the alternator and serpentine belt would fix my vehicle and it didn't. And instead of fixing the problem, you talked around in circles acting like your business doesn't have any obligation to actually stand behind its work. And I am certainly NOT contacting you again because you're a creep who thinks that you can get away with unethical shady business practices because you are the "professional." I stand by my statements and recommended people stay far away from your business. Not because you rip EVERYONE off - but because you rip off at least some of us. And that's enough for me to let others know they could be next.

ALL 3 of the employees on the premises avoided me. No one even bothered to look at me. I tried to approach nicely saying excuse me, and all of them don't talk back. They just gesture their hands at me to go away. Like I am seriously shocked... Horrible service. To note, I did go to the office first because I read the sign. But no one was there and I waited with no one coming in to help me. So that is when I tried to ask the employees. I've never been here before so I wasn't sure if someone knew I was waiting since I had no appointment, per the phone call. Well, now I know to never come here.

First of all, I would like to say the ONLY reason I decided to go with Pearl City Auto Works was…read morebecause they had 5 star reviews. After my experience with them, they deserve a 1 star. If I could I would give them a 0. 2 and a half years ago, I took my car to Pearl City Auto Works for a brake job. It cost me almost $5k to do it. Now they told me I gotta spend another $2400 to fix the same problem. My other half and I talked business with the owner's daughter Shay Nakamura about the situation and asked certain questions and she couldn't give any feedback to the situation at hand. She tried to give me a discount, but I don't think it was enough, considering I know for a fact they are charging me 3-4x the actual cost for the parts and then will eventually get more money back because of the cores. I text the number they text me with explaining my situation and there were no response. 2 phone numbers they text me from I left a text message, no response. That right there shows me that that they have poor communication skills. Communication was done with text. To be honest, I prefer real conversation with a person/company. I believe that they either did a poor job 2 and a half years ago or the quality of parts they used suck!! I got ripped off the first time and they tried to do that again the second time around. NEVER again will I do business with them!!

Kaleo recently worked on my family's Kia Sorento and we could not be more grateful for his service…read more This is our primary vehicle for getting to medical appointments, work, church, and taking care of our family's daily needs. Having it repaired correctly and safely meant everything to us. What was supposed to be a repair lasting just a few hours turned into a three-day job because new issues kept coming up. Throughout the entire process, Kaleo remained patient, honest, and committed to doing the job right. I stayed during the repair because I wanted to understand what was being done and he welcomed my questions. He took the time to explain each step and was completely transparent about the work and the challenges he encountered. In addition to providing exceptional service, Kaleo's pricing was fair and affordable. He truly embodies the aloha spirit, treating his customers with kindness, respect, and genuine care. If you are looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, affordable, and dependable mobile mechanic, I highly recommend him. We will definitely be calling him again for any future repairs. Mahalo Kaleo for going above and beyond to keep our family safely on the road!

I explained that I needed to replace my two front tires and that I had already gotten an online quote for a specific set. Unfortunately, those tires were initially out of stock, but Devin offered to order them for me. I then asked if there was anything comparable that they had in stock, and he was able to find me a great option that was actually cheaper than the tires I had found online! Devin was incredibly helpful and friendly throughout the whole process. He let me know they could have my car finished within an hour, but they actually finished even faster than that, which was awesome! He also recommended a place just a few buildings down called Great People for my safety check. I went there right after getting my tires done and had my safety check completed in less than 10 minutes! Talk about convenient! Overall, I'm so happy with the service I received. Everything was quick, easy, affordable, and exactly what I needed. Everyone in the shop was so nice, and the facility itself was clean, welcoming, and well maintained. If you're looking for great service, especially if you're working with a budget, I definitely recommend checking this place out! Mahalo nui loa, Devin for all your help! You made the whole experience so easy and stress-free. I'll definitely be back!

He is knowledgeable, dependable, honest, and very trustworthy, all qualities that are so important when you're dealing with car repairs. Richard took the time to explain what was going on with our vehicle and what needed to be done, without ever making us feel pressured into unnecessary repairs. We also really appreciated the convenience of having a skilled mechanic come directly to us instead of having to drop off the car and arrange transportation to pick it up later. That alone saved us a lot of time and hassle. Another big plus was the price. We received three other quotes for the same job, and Richard's price was lower than all of them. Getting excellent work at a very fair price made the experience even better. It's not always easy to find a mechanic you can truly trust, but Richard is definitely one of them. We wouldn't hesitate to use 808 MOBILE Auto Repair again and would gladly recommend Richard to our family and friends.
