I can't say enough of this great Business I found. Sean & His Crew are just so knowledgeable when it comes to cars! We highly recommend Them for any & all of Your car needs. They did an "Overhaul" on Our Betsy, without me asking for one. Back in the day that meant looking over the engine & finding out what's wrong & then let You know if They are able to fix it! Nowadays, am sure They charge a lot for that. Sean didn't charge Us! I think that is a very important thing You should do for Your car, especially when the car is old. He wants to do what's best for the car & & not charge You a small fortune! {Like the Dealerships want to, & they're supposed to be the best?} We thank All of You for taking such excellent care of Our Betsy. We are very pleased & feel good knowing Our car is safe & in great hands. We're happy to finally find a Wonderful place to care for Our car. I've been looking for one for a while now, since Ours retired. To no avail. You always want to do what is good for Your car, because We depend on them so much to be there for Us. It is a "privilege" to have a car license, and be able to drive. Mahalo for being so understanding to Us, who doesn't know anything about how to fix a car. It is very much appreciated! May God continue to Bless Everyone. This is a real "Ohana" Business! They treat You like Family! Much Aloha! read more

Great service! Sean, Alec and all the staff are top-notch. My van was overheating and the engine light came on. They diagnosed the problem and gave me a very fair price and finished the job quickly so I could get back on the road. As a tour driver, I appreciate their work and honest car advice. My go to shop! read more

Best auto shop in Oahu! Mr. Sean and his team are honest, fast, and affordable--especially for import cars like my Mercedes. Parts and labor usually cost a fortune, but here I got the best service at the lowest price. If possible, I'd give them 100 stars! read more

Great customer service! Went in for my tire alignment. It was easy to make an appointment and I didn't have to wait for hours. I highly recommend taking your vehicle here. owner sean and his staff are awesome! read more

Sean and the gang is awesome. Sean will get to the point of the issue with your vehicle and his communication is awesome. I am a customer for life. Thank You Sean for keeping my families and I on the road! read more

I am thankful to find them on yelp. I have been calling around for estimates and some shops have given me the run around or said they were too busy and couldn't get it fixed within the next 4 days. Then I saw SS auto repair here on yelp. I called on a Monday to ask for an estimate to fix my water pump, got the estimate and dropped off my car on Tuesday at 8am and they were done by 1:30pm the same day. I was in shock that they got it done so quick. The prices were very reasonable, it's better than going to one of those bigger retailers. I will be taking my car to them for everything from now on. I try my best to support local small businesses and this shop was perfectly located, they were all very friendly and reliable. read more

SS Auto Repair - My 2006 Dodge Ram is 1 of 5 cars that still runs. Something as simply changing our oil 1990 Toyota. - Auto Repair Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Sean and the team at S&S Auto were absolutely fantastic. Everything from Hawaiian hospitality to fair, affordable pricing and more was unbeatable. I took my car here to get the tire pressure sensor replaced and I would highly recommend taking your car here for honest, reliable service where they treat you like family and don't just overcharge you for every little thing like most dealerships. Best mechanic I've dealt with ever, hands down! read more

A+++++++ EXCEPTIONAL WORK AND SERVICE!!! Super honest, straight forward, very respectful, fair pricing - what more can you ask for? I cannot praise Sean and Manu enough!! A HUGE THANK YOU for saving me because I rely heavily on my car for work. Found myself in a jam this past week when my clutch went out. (Okay I saw the signs, but didn't know what was wrong with my car until it was almost too late). Got a referral from a friend for SS Auto. Read the Yelp reviews and decided to give them a try. Called them up and they were able to squeeze me in. They fixed my clutch and also helped me repair some engine mounts that were broken and cracked. I REALLY appreciated that they caught this issue before it became a real problem. They were kind enough to let me pick up my car Saturday morning to accommodate my schedule. As a female going into an auto repair shop, I am always a bit skeptical because I'm not too well versed in cars (besides one year of auto in high school but that wasn't enough). What I can say is that Sean and Manu put me at ease. These two are genuine guys and you will be able to pick up that energy right away. They took the time to explain in detail what was going on with my engine mounts. They even lifted the car to show me the broken and cracked mounts. (I love proof since I think in terms of scientific evidence based!!) Everything made sense and I felt really comfortable working with them every step of the way. I ran things by my boyfriend and everything they explained added up. So I moved forward with the additional work. For all the ladies (and gents/them/they etc) out there who find themselves in a similar predicament as me (dire emergency situation where your car needs troubleshooting or fixing right away and you're unsure whom you can trust in town), I would highly recommend 3000% without a doubt taking your car to see Sean and Manu. The other reviews that share these same sentiments were spot on (inter-rater reliability)!! Hands down, don't hesitate to take your car there. Sean and Manu - you have a loyal customer in me. And since Hawaii is only 1 degree of separation, I'll be referring friends and family your way too. I THANK YOU IMMENSELY for saving me this past week (and in the future) for your hard work. Much mahalos to you both for the integrity in the work you do. read more

Took my brand new 2023 hybrid car here to put on a Cat Shield by MillerCat and Shawn and crew did an amazing job. Despite being busy with 3-4 cars he told me he could fit me in to his busy schedule. Was quick, easy, and cost effective. After finishing the job he was also super nice to let me look at his work from the bottom up so I can see what they did. Highly, highly recommend SS Auto! Mahalo Shawn and team! read more

Thank you so much SS auto!! This team is awesome...they really know their stuff, aside from detailed/individualized attention towards my car problem . Prior taking my car in, I researched to learn all about what needed to be fixed, but SS auto crew already knew and explained it just the way it had to be done. I got my car back with a polished engine, and running like new...NICE!! Thanks again SS auto. read more

Sean was the best!! We are visiting from LA and we needed a tire patch for our rental. He was very friendly and super helpful. I was honestly so stressed and he eased our stress. He got it done in less than 10 mins. Thanks again so much Sean!! read more

So I don't often write reviews. Partially because my profession keeps me busy, but mostly because my spirit animal is a sloth. I say that not to bore you, but just to illustrate that if I'm writing a review that means the business left a significant impression on me. My alternator suddenly died on me on the way to work leaving me stranded and without a vehicle. I had my car towed to a nearby business which quickly diagnosed my now expired alternator. I felt decent about that business repairing my vehicle, but then the quoted price gave me sticker shock. The labor price was fair, but the charge for the alternator was nearly double what it would cost to go to an auto parts store and purchase the part myself. I called SS Auto with my issue, explained my situation, and immediately was put at ease. SS Auto is extremely fair. While I won't go into details about what the owner did for me, but I'll say all my concerns were addressed and more. The owner even allowed me to drop off my vehicle the night before so I could park a rental at my apartment complex - a huge deal in the local area. In the end I was charged *substantially* less than what I was quoted at the other business. SS Auto 100% has my business while I'm on island and I wouldn't hesitate to refer my own mother to them. Simply put this is the most honest mechanic shop on island and you'd be a fool to take your business elsewhere. read more

I LOVE SS Auto!! I have been taking my car to Sean for many years. I'm retired now, but when I was still working I made the drive across the Pali each day. Whenever I had a car emergency Sean always found a way to fit me in and get my car back on the road as soon as possible. Yesterday my car broke down. I thought it might be the transmission, but turns out it was the cable. I had it towed to SS and within an hour Sean had fixed the problem... not only that - he didn't charge me! I am a 74 year old women living on a budget, and it's most important that I have people in my life that are kind and trustworthy... Sean and his people fit the bill. They are respectful and explain all my options for me. This is my first time writing a review on Yelp (or anywhere else for that matter) but the past couple months I've gone to Sean a couple times and each time has been such a positive experience that I had to finally say something... Go to SS Auto and experience what it's like to deal with good people! read more

I went to Ss auto and I just want to say that this is the very best auto shop!! They are very honest and fast business I will definitely refer them to everyone.awesome place thank you Sean and manu for making my day read more

Sean and his expert team came through when I was on a jab was always upfront and didn't cripple my bank account. Trustful Reliable and Transparent. Would definitely refer all my family and friends to hit up SS Auto!! read more

I was recommended by another mechanic to contact SS Auto to get my cylinder head replaced in my car. They agreed to do the work super quickly and charged me a fair price for the extensive work that had to be done. They were really patient in explaining things to me as someone who isn't very familiar with cars, and had the work done within 1.5 weeks so I could get my car back ASAP. They also checked out some of the other issues my car was having. I am really happy with how my car is working now and definitely would recommend them to anyone in the future! read more

Awesome customer service and workmanship. I would recommend them to all of my friends and family.

I was recommended by a friend to ss auto repair for an inspection to a potential vehicle purchase. Not only they went out of their way to accommodate me in adjusting to my schedule but they also was able to find the solution to our problem which made me make the purchase with confidence that it was the right choice. They're professional, efficient in their time of service, honest and straightforward with us. I highly highly recommend them to anyone of my friends or family that needs any kind of service to their vehicle. Thank you thank you for all that you do Shawn, Manu and gang see you guys soon read more

They were very quick and responsive. Needed my 4Runners alignment done and was running out of time because i was waiting to give birth and it needed to be done before it got shipped out to my home island. They squeezed us in and finished in less than an hour. Very friendly staff. read more

Awesome service. Reasonable price. Replaced some suspension parts and cannot beat the quality of work done. Definitely will be recommending to friends and family. read more

This is the 3rd car I've owned that I've brought to Shawn and he is always on point. He tells it like it is and let's you know what can wait and what repairs are urgent. Super friendly staff, great customer service. If I could give him a 10, I would. ONLY honest mechanic on island! read more

This place is super. That is, SS is for super service. I couldn't get my safety check because of a headlight issue. Shawn looked at my car and made a recommendation. I left my car overnight, and it was fixed early the next morning. Also, the cost was reasonable. As evidence of his work, he showed me the crap parts that the previous owner had put in the car. The car runs like new, and I got my safety check. If you want fast and honest auto repairs, then this place will not disappoint. read more

Shawn and his team were very knowledgable and trustworthy. They go the extra mile to make sure a job is done well and done right. I brought my 4Runner here for A/C repair. Because it is a bit of an older truck, they gave me several options for the repair, cost estimates, and in the end, they took care of the problem. If you're looking for a dependable place to take your automobile to be repaired right and well, this is the place to go. Thank you, Shawn and your team, for all your work. read more

Super honest and does great work with fair pricing. Sean and his team are great! Definitely my go to for auto repairs!

This shop gives off that mom and pop feel. It really feels like they are here to help you and not rip you off. Wait time was a little long but they do the best they can with only a couple lifts. You can get your vehicle aligned here for recon and also get your windows tinted. The owner was really nice and talked us through every detail. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for reliable work read more

SS Auto Repair - Champs !!! - Auto Repair Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I heard about SS Auto Repair through a friend. They told me this place was affordable, quick and everyone that works there is great. And I couldn't agree more. I brought in my 2012 Hyundai Accent because I was having issues with my alignment. SS Auto Repair was able to squeeze me. I ended up needing new front tires because mine were balding so bad you could see the tread. Everywhere on island was out of the tires I needed. It would take 5-8 days to get them. Shawn was able to have them the next morning for a super affordable price. Shawn is communicative, honest and reliable. You can tell Shawn loves what he does and genuinely wants to help however he can with your car's needs. The atmosphere is great and you can tell everyone here has great energy. They make their customers feel like family and leave you feeling happy with the service provided. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. Mahalo nui Loa!! read more

Upon Sean's word he did my wheel alignment after six months due to the warranty ALSO upon them reversing my car off the ramp I noticed my reverse light was out. They didn't have the bulb but told me if I went and got it they would replace it, so I went, and just as sean said, they fixed it free of charge. Reccomend! Super happy with my service also my car drives noticeably better. read more

I had my truck towed to SS Auto Repair and it was the easiest experience ever. They are super friendly. They fixed my truck pretty quick so I didn't have to stay in a rental car. The prices were reasonable and they just seem like honest people trying to help. I would definitely use them again and recommend my friends. read more

My Jeep had a blown head gasket and several other issues. It's pretty old, but I didn't want to purchase another vehicle. Shawn was super helpful presenting all the options. I don't know very much about cars and finding mechanics that are patient enough to explain things really makes a difference. Shawn and the boys are awesome! They fixed my Jeep and I know if I have a problem I can go to them for an honest assessment. Highly recommend :) read more

These guys were super helpful. They are fair priced and honest! Cant beat that.. thank you Shawn!

Now I must get new maf harness which could run me up to 6-900 bucks all because of their crap job they tell me to get bigger injectors and other things but it won't fix the messed up job they did. Do not go here they are the type of mechanics to do it under the books like they did me and ask you how much you think you'd pay for it. After I said 600 which is way over they all acted like that was too little and 700 sounded like a good price. Highest you should pay is 5 for a job like that. They don't give you a baseline price. They go off of what you think and they upsale. Like I said 700 for an intake manifold job all cash and under the books watch out everyone take it to rad Motorsport or somewhere who is more accustomed to this type of work. If you're just getting your oil changed that's fine for this shop but other then what a lube technician can do. Take it somewhere else rad Motorsport helped me reassemble everything and charged me way cheaper than these rip offs... he also says he used to be shop owner there 15 years ago. The shop owner at rad has been there 20 these guys are full of it LOL read more

Sean and Royal belong at the top of Yelp. These guys and their shop provided us with the absolute best service I have ever experienced from an auto repair shop I was recommended to SS Auto by another friend and I felt that the word of mouth advertising is the best so I went and had an awesome experience. These guys are fair, upfront, no BS and provide quality work. read more

This place was sincerely awesome and I'll continue to take my car here as long as I live on island. I never write Yelp reviews, but these guys went out of their way to help me when my car alternator/battery broke and my car stopped in the middle of an intersection. They came and picked me up and got my car going enough to get it to the repair shop ten minutes down the road, saving me the cost of a tow. Within two hours, they'd figured out the problem with my car and replaced my battery, with a new warranty, for free. Not to mention they were so kind, helpful, and communicative. The only charge essentially came from the inspection. Could not rave about this place more. 10/10. read more

SS Auto Repair is the best mechanic shop on the island because the owner Sean is a nice and honest guy. The price is reasonable and they are fast getting your car repaired from Air Conditioning, Brakes, Oil Change, Tire Repair and Electrical and more. If they aren't able to fix your car for any reason then they will refer you to another specialty shop close by. I have been bringing my car to Sean for over 5 years and have saved lots of money where other shops charge a lot more. I won't go any other car repair shop and recommend you to bring your car and see for yourself. I recommend this shop to my friends and family. read more
