I was hopeful from the reviews but was shocked with how amazing the customer service was. Thomas, Ricky and Kevin all went above and beyond today taking care of my car and answering the 100 questions I tossed at them. Even after I paid and received my keys they took extra time to give me advice on maintenance and provided much needed education. These guys were so awesome and I will be coming here whenever I need any work done on my car!

This is a bit late this happened in 2025, but I needed time to assess what was going on with the…read morecars. This is more detail for my Dec 22nd, 2025 review. I have 2 cars both were being serviced at Leon's and for regular service I liked them, good customer experience up front. However, I took my 95 Toyota Land Cruiser in with 2 issues a suspected fuel leak (we could smell fuel in the garage when you opened the door) and it was running rough, more so when it was cold. Leon's looked at these problems and said they could not find either one. About the same time I took my 2001 Subaru Outback to them about an overheating problem and the guy from the shop came back with a big list of repairs to fix the problem even though I told him this car was a car I was not going to pay lots of money to repair. So with no solution for either car I looked for and found a shop in Arcata. The Land Cruiser went in first. On the first day he dropped the fuel tank and found that the line to the emergency break had worn a hole in the top of the fuel tank and it was leaking. He fixed it and looked for the other problem, it took him a bit longer but not much and he found the number 5 spark plug cable was periodically arcing to the exhaust pipes. So here is the significance of that, Leon's let me drive the car out of there shop with an active fuel leek and an active ignition source should the fuel get close to it. I was not pleased. Then I took the Subaru to the same shop in Arcata and in less than a day he said he found the connector to one of the fans that go on when the radiator gets too hot was not securely connected. Infer what you want from this but one thing is for sure Leon's should have caught the loose connector. Both cars now seem to be running just fine. So why did I not rate them a 1? Well initially I rated them much higher. When I came here for oil changes and tuneups the customer service at the front desk was great and this is where most auto repair shops drop the ball. I assumed that the work in the back followed the same pattern, but this turned out to be a bad assumption. So they could be good for regular maintenance, but I would not go there for anything tricky.

Wayne installed my unusual front brake kit and it works beautifully. Ever since I bought my very heavy Ford F350, the brakes were always inadequate no matter what kind I got. I kept switching for 23 years without having decent brakes, and having to plan stopping my truck in advance like in the Fletch movie were Fletch had to plan ahead with his old Cadillac with bad brakes and start braking way early to slow down and then bump into a wall or solid object to actually stop . Very dangerous. Anyway, Wayne fixed my braking problem, and now I can drive up and down the steep mountain roads around here without planning way ahead and panicking. Thanks Wayne! You and your mechanics are the best! I highly recommend Wayne's Auto Repair for your vehicle.

Also very reasonable oil change cost! Cheaper than the quick pull through oil change shops in the area. If we need any more car work done, we will be going here.

Sure enough, each time i had the same experience: good work, reasonable prices, and friendly folks. They work with you to figure out the trouble, instead of just holding onto your car for hours while the dollars mount up. My only reluctance in writing this review is that they might be "discovered" and then it will be harder to get in to see them! As it is, being a small shop and even a little hard to see from the road (they are behind the pumps at the Renner gas across from Safeway on Harris), they are not a real eye-catching place, and i don't think their good reputation has gotten them swamped yet. Other places might send you birthday cards or offer cookies, or send out expensive, glossy advertisements. Conti's keeps it low key and focusses on what they do best: fixing your vehicle. I am glad i found them!

I am aware Renner has an air/water station however it does not have a pressure gauge on it. Air pressure is a safety issue when riding a motorcycle which I was. After gas i pulled in front of the bay doors and saw the mechanic looking at me. I asked if I could get a squirt of air. He told me to go ask the person in the officeand he walked away. I walked into the office and spoke to a woman who acting as if I was bothering her. She referred me to Renner's air pump. Both people at this business are extremely rude and can't be bothered. I guess I won't be bothering to ever give them my business. It's sad as you would think a small business would have a better attitude to bring customers. I guess they don't want future customers .

Neglected to check that. He then said he would tell my car to his friends shop. It ended up at auto Masters. They said it needed to be plugged in and the battery needed some charging. It took 2 to 3 days for me to locate where my car even was. I had not given AutoMASTER's permission to do anything, yet wanted to charge me nearly $200 just for plugging in the battery and giving it some power. I explain the situation and the store owner, a female told me that she could "make my car hers" If I didn't pay her bill demands. My family ended up having to pay the bill because it was so ridiculous and I could not afford such a high bill and was going to have to go to AAA for reimbursement. Even after the bill was paid, auto masters tried to take me to court. The whole thing is so ridiculous and stupid. Do not trust this auto shop. Beware, they are scammers and they Seem to think that any cars on their lot could "potentially be theirs" Go elsewhere!!

The state insists that you take it to an approved repair shop and have it pass brake and lights , etc. They told me it would be $350. My windshield needed repair and they failed my car because of it. (FYI, that could have informed immediately it couldn't pass unless the windshield was replaced) After returning to pick up my car. And getting the failed paperwork . They said that they could have my windshield repaired so it would pass. ( They charged me $400 plus tax) I made the appointment to have them fix the windshield. Again I brought my car in and waited. Once the windshield repair guy arrived he immediately declined to fix my windshield because it was too complicated. They then told me they would find another windshield repairman to my car. I waited two days no call. I then went to pacific in Arcata. Had my windshield repaired. Returned to Johnson's and they said it would be another $400. Because they would have to recheck everything. Of course I wasn't going to pay them another $400. I drove a block to Broadway and stopped at Broadway Automotive. They would only charge $250. I just believe in good customer service. I would never suggest anyone ever going to Johnson's auto for anything.
