I Just had open heart surgery on my rig in RNS. From diagnosis to pick up the work and customer service here is top quality! Very knowledgeable and skilled team. Friendly people working very hard in there. read more

I actually didn't end up getting my car fixed here, but just a quick phone call with Glory gave me so much information. I wanted to see if they would be able to do this kind of repair, and when I described the problem, Glory was able to identify what make and model of car I had. From that, I learned it's a common problem for Subarus and that it might be a major engine problem. I applaud her for remembering this and for the excellent customer service! read more

If you are looking for honest and professional auto repair, look no further than RNS Automotive. These guys are the best! Had to have my car towed due to the check engine and other lights coming on and the engine running rough, and RNS Automotive was able to squeeze me in even though they were incredibly busy. Despite the tow truck taking longer than expected RNS still accommodated me when my car finally got there around 1 PM. They were able to diagnose and fix the problem by the next morning. I am sorry I didn't get a chance to speak with any of the mechanics, but Glory and Lee in the office were absolutely fantastic! Their courteousness and professionalism were outstanding. Also, this shop is honest. Integrity can be a rare commodity, especially in auto repair but RNS will not try and take advantage of their customers, which I truly appreciate. Thank you very much RNS! I will be bringing my car back if I need repairs in the future! read more

These guys are not cheap (hourly rate close to $200) but they know their stuff and are very efficient. Brought in my 2015 Nissan Frontier for three pieces of work that would allow me to keep it running safely. Called with their estimate a couple hours after bringing it in, and once I gave the OK, it was done within another couple of hours. If the repairs hold up, which I expect them to, the cost will be well worth it. read more

Car inspection. So easy, efficient and a great spot if you have to wait. Cords to recharge your phone, mine was low and appreciated the quality service. Friendly staff and had me in and out within 30 minutes! Highly recommend. read more

Did my safety check in a short amount of time. Very convenient. Only downside is the lack of parking.

Amazing service! Took my car to replace a broken tail light. All of the staff was very friendly and professional, but Malee and DJ went above and beyond! They even refilled my washer fluid because the sensor went on. I will definitely be back! Quality work at reasonable prices. read more

Went for a battery light, and overheating car. Diagnosed it quick took care of my light no charge and were great working me on the replacement of my radiator fan. Highly recommended. Price wasn't bad either!! read more

RNS Automotive - Oil Change Stations Near Me - Kailua, Hawaii

Farmed out an engine/ trans switch out from a rusty 80 El Camino to a rust free 81 El Camino due to a unscheduled move to a new residence which restricted me of doing the job myself & the move came with questionable time allowed. RNS took on the job and completed it, allowing me to move at the same time. I highly recommend them as not only a general auto repair facility, but also other tasks not advertised. I'll most definitely come back for other services as well as for future safety checks of my Elky, thank you so much read more

I have been taking all our vehicles to RNS for years now. Ron and his crew are top notch! Just today I was having a reoccurring issue with my 2002 ford Ranger ride, vibration at higher speeds. They found my rim was slightly bent, just enough to drive me crazy, easy to miss. Ron was so thorough and thoughtful. After I got the rim replaced it rides so smoothly, I don't think I'll let anyone else in the family to drive it! RNS 100%! read more

Very cool staff. First time to this auto shop and the people there are all excellent! You definitely feel the vibe you first walk in. Top notch customer service. Went in for a diagnostic for my vehicle and later concluded with speaking with the shop owner Ron. Gave me the run down of my vehicle, it was as if I was talking to a long time friend. Broke it down to me with no bs. I respect your honesty Ron. Hope to never be back here again but not because of the business but for car issues (if that makes sense lol) But if you ever do need help with car issues, this is the place to check out. Highly recommend. read more

My middle son, Ryan, recommended this place. We had been going to Servco in Waikiki since we purchased our used Toyota Camry Hybrid. We have a condo in Hawaii Kai but live in Central California. Our brakes felt different this visit and I needed an oil change. Plus last visit I tried to get our car inspected and it failed for the tires. I was so confused over the fact that I'd bought tires from the 76 station in Aina Haina but he didn't give me a new updated sticker. Anyway, RNS took very good care of me. They said my brakes were good, oil change done and they actually did a courtesy inspection for me so I could go straight to the DMV and register my car for '25. I really felt good about these folks. They felt like honest business owners. I drove quite a distance to see them but it was worth it. They are my "go to" mechanics now. Also, there is an adorable coffee shop around the building from RNS. I had coffee and bought some local coffee to take home for gifts. They also have an upstairs art studio that I wanted to go see but no brake issues so no time. Next time though. read more

Friendly quick service - will be happy to return! They took care of our problem (our bumper knocked off) in less time and way less cost than we expected. read more

I was recommended to try RNS and had high hopes based on their reviews. They diagnosed the issue quickly and completed the repair the same day, which I really appreciated. I was caught off guard by the surcharge fee at checkout and wish it had been mentioned up front, but otherwise the process was smooth and I'd consider coming back for future service! read more

UPDATE: Ron fixed my vehicle, it appeared to be a faulty new part. I appreciate them fix the issue, it took me calling them several times. The biggest issue was the communication. No one told me the hours they put into working on my vehicle to get it working until I talked to Ron himself. Very disappointed. I have been a loyal customer of there's for about 5 years, letting all my friends and family know this is the place to go. I have always brought them all my cars even brought them my 56 Chevy to be worked on. I was hooked the first time I ever went there they cleared my codes on my car for free. Fast forward to now the last two experiences let a sour taste in my mouth. I have a code reader and I already knew what the issue was a misfire in cylinder 2. So I let them know this is the issue the vehicle is jerking. RNS let's me know yes so we have to change spark plugs and coil packs for atleast 3 cylinders and I order to do that they have to take manifold off and change that gasket. They told me it would cost about $730 to do all the work. I was like ok I get it is a big job. So RNS does the job they call and say that will be $890.00, I was like wait what how did it go up in price. RNS says oh tax's and gave me a list of about four different shop fees after doing math it still never made sense. After priying they said oh and we notice air filter was dirty so we changed it with out asking and decided to charge you for it without letting you know. RNS said to me we also notice your bumper was loose so they related they secured it for me (I am thinking yay that is the RNS I know) fast forward to pick up they drilled two wood screws in to my body that will rust. I never gave them permission to damage the outside of my body with woods screws that is not how to properly secure a bumper. On top of seeing other scratch marks on the bumper. They also told me that my battery needs to be changed and they could do it for 160$ because it is the wrong battery. Negative I bought that battery at oreillys and verified it is the right battery. (Shady) What ever at this point I just decide to pay and take my car. Half way home the check engine light goes on and it starts shaking again (Problem not fixed). I take it back to RNS they clear the code and tell me they don't notice the issue, I come back after they are closed and start my car it is still shaking and before I make it to Kaapa quarry the check engine light is on again. Same issue they supposedly fixed. I am so disappointed I don't know what happened to this once great shop that has now went down hill I do not have time to run my car back in fourth to them any more I have a 2 jobs and 2 kids and they never answer the phone. I guess it goes to say if you want something done right do it your self I am no longer sending anyone I know back here. Ron what is going on with your shop. read more

Quick and easy, in and out safety check They were super helpful and saw me last minute. They have become my "go-to" shop. Highly recommend! read more

We needed to fix a tire which had a slow leak (turns out there was a nail in it). We called the day before, and got a next day early appointment. We waited while they fixed it in about 30 minutes. So happy to find an inexpensive, honest shop with excellent customer service. read more

I've been to RNS twice since being here. They are very straightforward in inspection and recommendations, which I always appreciate when it comes to car repairs. They found an additional issue and called for my approval before working on the car so I could give the green light on cost. The one thing I would say is I did have to follow up to see when my car would be finished, but they were very prompt in responding. This will be my new shop! read more

Great service and above anything honest and fair. Easy to make an appointment and so nice to go somewhere you are going to that they aren't going to rip you off. read more

I love RNS, I've only been two times now, but I'm coming back for all my automotive needs. They are quick, efficient, and they don't break the bank. First time I went for my oil change, & they noticed a few other things and helped me with those too. Yesterday I went for a horn and safety inspection, they were done in less than 30 minutes, and my horn works again!! Bonus there's a coffee shop on the way in you can stop at while you wait. Mahalo RNS team!! read more

I had timing done on my truck. Great customer service, fast turn around and gave me a run down on my vehicle. Mahalo!

This shop is the BEST!!! Customer Service rules! Ron & his staff are friendly & genuinely care about your concerns! And the work they do - I don't trust any other place. Thanks Ron ...Glory ...Kalani Don't take my word ... See for yourself! read more

Hands down five stars! My AC went down and the dealership wanted an arm and leg to fix it. I shopped around and located the top AC repair shops on this island. Ron was more than reasonable and was very quick to answer my inquiries via Yelp. My car was worked on from Monday to mid Wednesday. AC is blowing well and I even got my safety check sorted out. What really makes this place stand out is being able to drop your car off anytime. Again anytime! They have a drop off service where you leave and park your car by the shop and drop your car keys in a secured area. Not to worry they have cameras there too! I dropped off my car on Sunday night and filled out the form. I'm really happy with the service. On a final note never ever do repair work at a dealership! read more

I'm back for the 3rd time since moving here a year ago and I just can't say enough great things. I'm a young girl who is always overwhelmed when it comes to getting my car serviced. I walk in the door (or call on the phone/navigate the website) and am constantly met with kindness and efficiency. I almost wish I had the skill set to work alongside such a stellar group of people! Bravo RNS... Something that usually feels like a burden is EASY with you all. read more

Great service, car was done when promised. This is rare in Oahu. Good value, quality work. Will definitely go back. Very satisfied with their work. The place is kinda hard to find. read more

I like this shop because they don't try to up sell you things your car doesn't need. They don't just add rotors to brake pad service. Staff is very nice. Parking can be a little tricky but it is totally worth it. Thank you for all the help provided to my car. read more

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Daniel and Lee were fantastic. This shop is my go to from now on. Great prices and they are very fair and reliable. If you are looking for a place that's fair and will do great work for your vehicles, i 100% recommend RNS automotive. 12/10 would recommend read more

I just took my 2009 BMW 328i in for service and was totaly impressed with the service. The gal in the front was courteous and professional and just plain ole nice. The mechanic was efficient and called to give me an honest update and the job was done right. They have a customer for life. read more

Great service if you go in person. They are understaffed, so they might not answer the phone if you call. But if you go in person, they take the time to help you and will explain things in a simple and straightforward way while being kind and courteous. read more

I join others in recommending RNS. They are great communicators, fairly priced, and responsible. Plan to use them again for future services. read more

Top notch service! This last week, I brought my '08 Accord with its 200k miles to Ron and his team...my a/c had died and needed to be replaced. The team found that my compressor was dead, replaced it the next day, paid the bill and left. Unfortunately, a/c still wasn't producing cold air. Brought the car back the next day and the following day....Ron's team stayed with it until the problem was fixed, even paying for another compressor to replace the first one. In the end, when Ron handed me the keys, he gave me an ice-cold AC, on a 15 yo car, and didn't charge me anything more for the 2 extra days. They clearly lost money on my old Accord--between the time and parts--but he made it right to his customer. An honest mechanic? Worth their weight in gold. RNS has won my repeated business. I highly recommend! Let them prove it to you too. read more

Best mechanic I have had the pleasure of working on any vehicle I have had. Ron is honest and fair. He has been our mechanic for about 3 year now and we could not be happier. Ron spends time to explain different options on repairing your vehicle and helps you decide with cost in mind what is best for u. A mechanic that won't over charge??? Unheard-of! As a person he is a stand-up guy. As a mechanic he is da freakin BOMB!!! If u have any questions hit me up! read more

To those of you who say they are lacking customer service are clueless. It's an auto repair shop not an ice cream parlor. Ya they don't answer the phone.... they are slammed busy. Get over yourselves. If you want an honest place to fix your car this is the place. Twice I have come to them with issues that other places told me I NEEDED to get fixed ASAP. Guess what.... not true and RNS told me, instead of just fixing and charging me for something not needed. Won't go anywhere else. PERIOD!!!! read more
