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!
Excellent service. They were professional, personable and all work was explained clearly. Highly recommend.
Incredible service! I had to have my car towed there to get some major repairs. They communicated with me every step of the way and fixed my car in just a few hours. It’s a little far from where I live, but absolutely worth coming back.
These guys are great. They only use OEM parts so they are a little bit more expensive than a regular shop, but way cheaper and just as good or better than going to a dealer.
The folks at Pacific Rim Auto are honest, reliable and skilled. They have kept my old Honda and newer Subaru running for many years. Highly recommended.
What a great group of honest, professional mechanics! I knew my pickup was going to down for a while. These folks had a car ready for me to use while they quickly and professionally repaired my truck. Great communication throughout the process! I'm already recommending them and I've found a great garage!
After years of taking my car to PRA, I won’t take my car anywhere else. Jeremy, Elijah, Jay, the techs and mechanics, all great! I was a doofus and tried changing out a reverse light and the bulb got stuck in the thingy when I tried to replace it. I know they don’t necessarily do light bulb changes, but they were…
Had a great experience here! Jeremy and his team diagnosed and fixed many of my car's issues (has 200k miles on it). He addressed a windshield leak, bad brakes, heat shield, and an EVAP leak. He does not do that thing that so many auto-shop chains do: apply pressure to do unnecessary things and leave you…
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…
We have been here several times and have had good results. They might not be the cheapest service but it is worth it to pay more to get good customer service. Whether it is me or my husband, they treat us with respect and explain things in a way I can understand. They are friendly and try to make things as easy as…
Always honest, helpful and courteous!
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.
Great customer service and very knowledgeable staff
This is my go-to shop for all three of my cars. Years of professional service.
Love the guys at Pacific Rim. They have been my mechanics for 25 years because they’re skilled and ethical. The fact that they provide loaner vehicles is a wonderful bonus.
Really happy with the service here! Very throughout and are really upfront with the cost of their services. They helped explain the issues and cost completely, making me feel very comfortable working with them. Shouts out to Jeremy he has been great to work with.
I highly recommend Pacific Rim Automotive! I have had great service from the team here for everything from oil changes to fixing a bizarre electrical issue. They are kind, trustworthy, and super reliable. I feel at ease bringing my car to them!
