I've never seen this level of disregard and carelessness from any auto shop, tire shop or oil change facility, never. Take a look at the pictures.

Two months ago, I had my break pads and rotors replaced here. I dropped off my car in the morning…read moreand was able to pick it up by early afternoon-quick and convenient with reasonable rate. Today, I went back because I started hearing this awful squeaky/grinding sound coming from one of my front tires/brakes. Emmanuel (Owner) put my car up on the lift, took off tire, examined it, and was able to find a small rock caught between the tire and the break. He showed me the rock and where it had lodged itself. After putting everything back together, he handed me my keys and sent me on my way-no charge at all, even though he spent a good 40 minutes fixing it!!! I'm so thankful for his help, his labor, and his precious time. Most importantly thankful for his honesty. He could've easily said I needed new parts, but he didn't. This time, I didn't even have to leave the shop. ( made an appointment yesterday) He took care of my car as soon as he became available. The only thing I didn't like was actually the customers in the small waiting room on their phone playing games with sound on and talking on speaker phone. No etiquette. :( Recommend by my friend who used to get service from the previous owner of this shop who also was an honest man. I will definitely continue to come back here.

After waiting 10 minutes for the owner to return, we were sent away, being told they were unable to fix (wouldn't even LOOK at it) and to go to a body shop. We barely made it back home and eventually fixed it on our own. Obviously if we could fix it, they could have. Not returning or recommending to anyone.

Turns out it was a simple problem with the gas cap not being on correctly and the codes needing to be reset. I know nothing about cars. John easily could have charged me a fortune to "fix" a non-existent problem but instead he just performed the diagnostic, checked a few things under the hood,reset the codes, and sent me happily on my way. Wow. Great, honest service!

I reserved a time to get brakes replaced; pads and maybe rotors turned. They asked why?

I brought the car in and the service order was for an inspection. I had to remind him I was here for brakes so inspect if you want but the brakes need to get done today. So about 2PM the inspection was done and they said I needed new brakes. They also said they only had time for an oil change. They said they would call when done with that and didn't. So I got the car at 5, still with my old brakes, and will never return. Sometimes you just need to listen to your customer. They don't listen. Only have one car so lost a whole day

Barely made it there before it got flat, but I did. They checked it out, plugged it, and filled the air back up in the tire. They didn't charge me for the temporary repair, which was really kind of them. Was able to get my tires replaced a few weeks later somewhere else and the plug had no problems until then. Another time I came to get my car serviced, and that also was pretty quick and also went well! Forget how much it was but it was pretty standard compared to other places. I would trust them with any and all of my car service needs!

I had a good experience at Tomoko Auto Care Center in Seattle…read more They're known for being honest and not trying to sell you a bunch of unnecessary repairs -- the mechanic explained everything clearly and didn't push extra services on me.

I called before my oil change light came on and Tony told me to wait until it started lighting up. I was immediately impressed because he could've made money off me but told me to wait. A few months later, the light came on and I made an appointment. It's difficult to get an appointment quickly but I didn't need one right away so it worked out. I think he was scheduling a couple weeks out. The day of, I dropped my car off around 9am and came to pick it up around 4pm. Plan to leave your car as there isn't really a waiting area. If you walk about 10-15min you can find a coffee shop. It's also on a bus line if you want to take transit somewhere. Tony is very friendly. The oil change was reasonably priced at $88 before taxes. It was a great experience.

While that was going on they sent a quote for a bunch of other maintenance items, which I refused. Fine, lots of other shops do this kind of thing. But they wanted quite a lot for engine air filters, so I decided to do that myself. Today I get into my engine and discover the hose from the air filter box to the engine is completely loose. There's two of these on my car -- one was properly tight, the other was so loose it had a gap letting unfiltered air into the engine. This is the only shop that's touched my car for a couple years, and if they were recommending an air filter replacement I have to assume they actually looked at them. Easy fix, just tightening a worm clamp after swapping the filters. But my car was in this state for a few months. Reader, this silly mistake could have destroyed the car's engine, and very well may have damaged it. It does not take a lot of unfiltered debris to permanently score cylinder walls. I'd need to go get a compression test to know for certain. I came to this shop for oil changes & maintenance because I didn't want to feel the need to crawl around my car double-checking a quick-change place's work. That is apparently not the level of service they are set up to provide. For what they charge and the "vibe" they give off, this sort of thing should be on a checklist a second mechanic runs through before delivering the car. Real basic "humans are capable of making mistakes" type of controls.
