Brought it in first thing Monday, told them I was from out of town, and they did all they could to get me on my way. I was on the road by noon with a new coolant recovery tank and a truck working as it should. Carrie at the counter and all the mechanics were SUPER professional, compentent, and nice. Clean, comfortable waiting area. Totally fair and reasonable prices. No extra nonsense or upcharges. Highest recommendation if you have car issues in Humboldt. Fantastic! Top marks.

However, when I went in with something less common, they basically either could not do it or did not want to do it. I was smelling gas, and their response was "We could not find anything".

Wayne is awesome. I…read morecame here after first stopping by Antich Automotive. The guys at Antich were busy, I understand that, but they were rude and would hardly speak to me. When I stopped in at Wayne's he was extremely busy too, but he was friendly and took the time to make sure I had all my questions answered. He even answered a couple of my calls after-hours when I came up with more questions. It was painfully obvious that I know very little about cars, but Wayne was very helpful and answered everything without any hint of condescension. Whereas most mechanics I've been to tend to say, "Well, that part does [insert unintelligible mechanic-language here]." Since I have no idea how much most parts tend to cost, I went to Google to compare his estimate with prices I could find. Turns out, he's actually quite reasonable! Another thumbs up for Wayne. I went back in a couple of days later to see how things were going on my vehicle. (There were multiple jobs ahead of mine, and due to safety concerns with the car, I just left it at Wayne's.) Wayne and I started talking, turns out he's a really cool, honest guy. There were several things I wanted to have done where he would say, "I could do that for you, but I don't really do a lot of that here. [Insert Name] down the street could do that for less and probably do a better job." What? I don't think I've ever heard a mechanic say that. Last I checked, most people would go ahead and do the requested task without saying "So-and-so down the street would do that for less." Fantastic service!

He takes the time to explain things to me and he's friendly. I've asked him to do some preventative maintenance on my older cars, like installing new hoses and a transmission cooler, because I want to keep the cars for a long time. Orion explains the pros and cons of each job, and he's quick to tell me when something isn't worth the expense. I appreciate that.

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 .

I have to say I could never have had a more delightful opportunity in meeting a more rude, unkind, & disgraceful woman at a front desk. I get it was a Monday morning but maybe that's a sign this isn't the job for her especially if it's working with other people. I see all these other very nice reviews on here so maybe some tragic event happened? Is she being forced to be there? Maybe I on my end simply forgot to say good morning.. I don't know what it was but seems to be something that needs to be checked out on behalf of herself & all those around her. It made me feel really sorry. My prayers are with you all & with the kids (repair-men?) at the table laughing at the disrespect from her. Please take care. I wish you & all only Heaven. Sincerely, Daniel

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.
