Took my CRV in for some regular maintenance and everyone working here were really pleasant to talk to and everything was explained to me clearly. Service was also fast.
What an impressive operation. This shop is a well-oiled machine. I showed up without an appointment, and they managed to diagnose and fix our Lexus LX the same day. On a Monday, no less. Try walking into just about any other repair shop on a Monday without an appointment and see how that goes. What impressed me…
I love these mechanics. I've been bringing my Subaru here for a few years now since moving to Seattle. They're so friendly and helpful, easy to schedule with, and I am very happy with the quality of their work and general advice.
I appreciate how straightforward they are. They always let me know what they're gonna do, how long it will take, and how much it will cost. If any of that changes, they call me. And having the option to get a loaner car from them for only $30 per visit (not per day!) is really nice.
The team at Pacific Rim is great! Fair pricing with upfront details given after the diagnostic work has been completed so that as a consumer, you can make an informed decision whether to move forward with work on your vehicle. The integrity and hard work of the entire team is appreciated and I know I can always rely on them for my SUV.
Pacific Rim has been maintaining my vehicles for over 20 years - and extended family the past 14 years. They’re the BEST shop in Seattle in my opinion- honest, fair, professional and competent. And if anything goes wrong they go above and beyond to address. Simply the BEST!
Had a great experience at Pacific Rim Automotive!! They were easy to schedule service, communicate with, timely in their work, reasonably priced and very friendly customer service. Highly recommend!
Our family has used Pacific Rim Auto for 20 years now. I am very glad to have found them and value their honesty, integrity, and commitment to service. They’re the best.
I always have a smooth and pleasant experience when I have work done on my car at Pacific Rim. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and do great work. Stopped going to the stealership a while ago and won't be going back anytime soon! Highly recommend Pacific Rim Automotive.
Friendly, efficient, and reasonably priced. Just an all-round awesome service from start to finish. I won’t take my car anywhere else anymore!
The staff are helpful, courteous, responsive, and respectful. I’ve long since sworn off going to dealerships for service after so many negative experience. I love Pacific Rim.
I had a great experience at Pacific Rim Automotive when they worked on my car recently. The communication was great and booking an appointment was easy. I was having a specific repair done and they did a full review of the car and came back with a recommendation to also replace the break pads - I appreciated this…
I have been using Pacific Rim. for over twenty years. I buy old off road SUVs that still have a couple hundred thousand miles left on them if taken care of. Pacific Rim has helped me do that. I live and spend most of my time in the middle of nowhere. The folks at pac.rim know that I do not want to get stranded, and…
Very happy to have discovered this repair shop. The staff are helpful and explain things in detail when I have asked. Their work is first rate and has allowed me to keep my 20-year-old Suburu running well.
Over many years Pacific Rim has kept our cars in good running order. We really trust in this company.
These guys are great. We've taken our cars to them for years. The service is honest and friendly, and they keep our cars in top shape and running forever. My Element is 20 years old and runs like a top.
Had excellent experience. Outstanding diagnostic, technical, and customer service. Highly recommend.
Honest and Superior Service.
Knowledgeable, honest, speedy, and friendly
Love Pacific Rim. They always give straightforward advice. We’ve been servicing our car there for years.
