Quality family owned business. Great service as a respectful price. I've found my mechanic!

The mechanics at Nextgen Auto got my 1997 Miata up and running (even installing a new engine) on multiple occasions. My previous mechanic did not like working on a 26-year-old car and complained about it each time I brought it in. I was happy to find folks who did good work and loved cars. Thank you. The car is now on the mainland and you won't have to deal with me again. read more

NextGen Auto Center is the best auto shop on Maui! I was first impressed when I initially contacted the shop about my car. They answered immediately, which is rare here on Maui. They said they were not available to work on the car for several days, and that I should expect the car to be examined 5 days away. Although they were full, they offered to take my car in and work on it earlier if they had the time. My car was inspected for the issue was done 3 days earlier than expected. They found a handful of issues and were extremely helpful in helping me understand what was wrong with my car and what they advised me I should get done. I also really liked their platform that sent you text updates. I was able to follow a link from a text that showed me everything my car was inspected for, and everything that was wrong with it, with pictures of the issues from my car, and a rating of if it should be fixed immediately, or if I could hold off on fixing it. Lastly, they were extremely generous and kind. Car issues are stressful and can affect people's lives in very large ways. Every person I worked with my extremely kind and helpful. I also knew I could trust NEXTGEN because I could tell they were a shop with good morals, integrity, and honesty. They even found issues that other auto shops had cut corners on and helped me fix those. Overall, you will not be disappointed with the service you get from NextGen! read more

Very Friendly, they make safety checks super easy!! Highly recommend! They are even open on Sundays!

Good, honest staff. Quick turn around and great communication. Will definitely use them again.

Our car overheated. I looked up mechanics on yelp. Came across Next Gen Auto. They had all 5 star reviews. And now I know why. Shawn was amazing. He took all our information. Signed me up for text updates. ( But he honestly called me more) He was open and honest. Also very upfront about everything. Our repair was done very quickly for what they had to go through. ( New radiator,hoses, new thermostat and new fan assembly) Very reasonably priced. And I have never seen a shop that clean and organized! Thank you Next Gen auto!!!!! We will definitely be back with anything in the future! Highly recommended!!!!!!! read more

BEST CAR MECHANICS EVER!!!!! Christian and Shawn fixed every car that my family owns, including a golf cart. Thank you for your expertise!!!! read more

Our 2016 Jeep warning light came on while I was in Kahului so I drove to NextGen to see if they could translate the dashboard message. They were fantastic and took time out of their busy schedule to diagnose the problem. Turns out the temp gauge was on the blink and needed replacing. Luckily the car was running cold, not hot, so I could carefully drive home and come back the next week to get the job done. They managed to find the last part on the island and nabbed it for me so I was happy to pay for the part immediately before work began. They don't have loaner cars so Hubby and I convoyed in as I had to leave the car with them for the day. They were full up with jobs, yet they kept working after hours to make sure our car was ready to go. Dedication! Our Jeep is now working perfectly and the job was in the price range we thought it would be (they charged us exactly the amount they quoted). I will be back for any regular maintenance issues to NextGen even though I live on the West side. read more

Are you frustrated with your limited auto repair options on island? Are you tired of paying businesses for their services, that aren't worthy in getting your money in the first place? Well my friends, that is exactly where I was at when I decided to try out NextGen and their services. I originally came to NextGen after a nearby business pulled my last straw, and figured I would give them a shot. I went in with a completely open mind and here is what I found. Small staff of two, greeted me as I walked in. I called in advance to see if they could make time for a quick oil change and managed to get me in later on that afternoon. Waiting room was breezy and their shop is clean. I waited a total of 50 mins which included the oil change, a light vacuum and wash, and check out time. What kind of service is that?! It's THEIR service. Check them out, I highly recommend it. Recommendation is to call in advance for an appointment or if they have time for walk ins. Hats off you NextGen, you are setting the bar for higher standards and better service. Will be seeing you soon. read more

See all

This family owned auto shop is conveniently located in Kahului (next door to Foodland Kahului). My family and I have relied on their expertise and service for the past year, ranging from a variety of tasks such as a battery change, tune-ups and safety checks (even for our 2-horse trailer!) As someone who is not very knowledgeable about cars, I greatly appreciate their ability to explain the job and answer my multitude of questions. Their hours of operation made it easy to make an appointment that fit my schedule. NextGen's pricing is also competitive with the market's. Thankfully, they also managed to save me a good chunk of money after they ran tests on my car to find the issue was just the battery and not the alternator which a chain auto parts store had suggested and sold me the part for. Big mahalo to NextGen! Definitely my go-to auto shop! read more

What a relief. These guys are very kind and courteous, no rough, gruff, dishonest treatment. Shawn is great, and I wish I knew the rest of the guys' names because they were awesome and gentlemen as well. Thanks guys!!! I wish I could get into all the personal details of why I was so grateful to find Nextgen Auto for a good-priced, relaxing oil change, and follow-up! (It has been a long road previously.) Perhaps I will add all that in at a later date. For now, I highly recommend these guys and they deserve good stuff for being good people. read more

I am not one for leaving a lot of reviews, but in this case I felt the need to recognize these guys for a job well done. I worked with Chris for this repair, he kept me well informed over the 2 days it took to get the AC in my car fixed. It turned out to be a little more complicated than originally thought, but they stuck with it until it was working like new and the cost was VERY reasonable. They have definitely earned my future business. read more

I went today to get a diagnostic on my car and Shawn was so helpful. They have a great shop very open and friendly. I don't know much about auto repairs or auto stuff in general so I tend to have anxiety about the whole experience but Shawn was helpful and helped me understand the possible issues with my vehicle. I trust them and I will be going back to them. I'm bummed I don't have a picture but they have a Facebook account that shows their shop. I will get pictures next time. read more

Awesome local business family owned they really know there stuff . Shane is very honest and far . Make an appointment they can get busy for sure but worth it !!! Only place I trust for all my cars on Maui ... Mahalo read more

Love the honesty of the people that work here~ They have this family vibe to them and wasn't surprised to find out that it's a father and son business. Great service and knowledgeable. read more

Happened upon this place after trying for weeks to get an oil change at Walmart (always had 3-4 hour wait and rude every time I went there) and Maui Oil Change (on Wakea they messed up my appointment time and way more expensive $44) If you are looking for a quick clean super friendly place to get a reasonably priced oil change ($33) this is it! They also do just about everything else your car might need. Family owned, super thorough, newer business with years of local experience! Keep it local and check these guys out! read more

My alternator needed replacement and on the way the car completely shut off in the median fronting old Kmart. Shaun sent his worker to retrieve car and had work done by end of the day. All for the same quote he gave, saved me from calling a tow truck. Not many repair shops do that especially being a first time customer. Maybe timing was right, called on a Thursday work done Friday, awesome! Definitely give them a try. read more

Great experience recently at NEXTGEN Auto Center! From my initial phone call to the quick diagnosis to the timely job and the honest assessment on what I would need to get my truck on the road , this father/son team is great! Thanks Shawn and Christian ! I will definitely recommend your shop to anyone needing their vehicles serviced! read more

Best car repair shop ever! Great service and fastest Filipino hands I've ever seen in my life! Would definitely recommend

Very disappointed. I paid almost $600 for new spark plugs and a valve gasket. 1 week later the car was running rough with at least 2 cylinders missing. I reached out to them with phone calls and they never bothered to return my calls. read more

I needed to add to the fantastic review list. My Volkswagens cooling fan was constantly running after it was turned off. My husband and I tried to fix it ourselves with the limited automotive knowledge we have, but it still wouldn't stop running. We knew we needed a professional to dig deeper into the car. I called Nextgen this morning and they were able to squeeze me in this afternoon. Found 2 issues with my car, ordered the parts from Napa and they got delivered. They changed them out and voila! The fan stopped. This father and sons team was professional, awesome, and showed me how they found what was wrong and how they were going to fix it. I appreciated the transparency. They didn't try to go looking for more problems to try and make a profit like some mechanics when they see a girl come in. I 100% recommended this shop and will be taking my cars to them for all my repair needs! Give these guys a call, I was not disappointed! read more

Found these awesome auto mechanics on the yelp app Made an appointment, there shop is a little hard to find as they are tucked behind foodland kahului But once we found them and got our car fixed by this Father and Son team They are going to be our go to mechanics! Awesome service Fair prices Honest and fast Fixed our AC and came in under budget Thank you NEXTGEN Automotive read more

The most honest and reliable mechanics I've found on Maui. Excellent work and customer service are a winning combination. Imua Nextgen Auto Center! read more

My girlfriend and I just moved to the Island and a friend recommended NextGen for the presale check. I've been super impressed and grateful by how much time they're willing to spend helping us understand and evaluate the issues they've found. They have a laidback confidence that I've come to recognize from people who really know what they're talking about and are playing the long-game to win lifetime customers. Not only did they help save us money on our purchase, they provided enough information to really empower us to make a smarter choice of what we were even looking for in the first place. They never make us feel like we were asking stupid questions or wasting their time--a rare combination or patience and expertise that's difficult to find! read more

Great customer service, great family operated business, superb work ethic. Highly recommended and trustworthy business. So glad this business has opened! read more

This father son team are my experts, highly skilled, talented & professional. What other shops can't fix, Shawn & Christian can. Should've brought my trucks to them the 1st time to get the job done right & to avoid costly & unnecessary repairs. read more
