Pacific Rim Automotive, Inc.

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… Read full review

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.

We've used Pacific Rim Auto for years to service our Subaru Outback, including a full engine replacement. They have earned our trust for their knowledge and fair recommendations to keep our car running well.

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.

Although the staff seemed very friendly and were responsive to me they definitely are scammers, probably only to women given what I read in other reviews and how men have given this place 5 stars while women rate it lower. They told me I needed a “major service” and kept saying “change all the fluids” without… Read full review

We take all of our family's vehicles to Pacific Rim for routine service and repairs. The staff is friendly and always upfront about what needs (and does not need) to be done. I appreciate their clear communication and reasonable approach to keeping our vehicles running well.

The team at Pacific Rim Auto always does a great job taking care of my car. 10/10 would recommend!

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!

So thankful that the team was able to get us in for 60K mile service literally the day I called!! (Long road trip planned). They attended to each part of that large service and even vacuumed the car! Love having the loaners!!

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.

Excellent, courteous service. Reasonable cost. I would use them again.

I used these guys for my two Subaru years ago, then I purchased a Lexus and had to use the dealership, but tired of the high cost of service. I always trusted Pacific Rim to be thorough and honest with me, so I came back, and found them to be thorough and honest. I couldn't be more pleased.

Excellent service. They were professional, personable and all work was explained clearly. Highly recommend.

Great place for older Japanese car models. They were able to fix issues on our Honda Civic. I highly recommend this place for older Japanese car repairs and maintenance.

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.

This is the second shop I’ve taken my high mileage 2001 Tacoma to, and I don’t need to look any further! Have had great experiences with Pacific Rim and very satisfied with the work they’ve done so far (clutch, starter, etc). Very professional and friendly as well.

I took a 2005 toyota rav4 with 220k that I inherited into Pacific Rim for an oil change. This is normally something I'd take care of myself, but old car that's new to me needs an inspection. They were thorough and caught everything that I'd known about and a few things I didn't. They called to give an update after… Read full review

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.

Workers need to be more cautious in tightening brake bleeder valves. I had recieved a routine 120k mile service which included brake fluid flush/change. A few days later, a low brake fluid notification came onto my dashboard. If you didnt know, brake fluid is highly corrosive. As I was unable to catch the leak on… Read full review

I just had my car serviced at Pacific Rim Automotive and it was as always a great experience. The team there communicate very clearly, are direct and upfront about costs and I always feel that they are looking out for my best interests, not just trying to drive up the costs. I was so delighted and surprised when I… Read full review

During the past thirty years, the staff of Pacific Rim serviced 4 of our cars with exceptional knowledge, skill and reliability.

Always fast, always friendly, always trustworthy.

I had 2 major services completed recently. Both Jay and Jeremy were extremely helpful and I was impressed with the communication and ease/availability of setting up appointments. They also represent a great value for the service they provide. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!

Excellent service as always! They were able to diagnose my car's issues right away and they were able to keep the cost affordable. Work was done in one day. Very satisfied!

Needed a ball joint and bushings replaced, as well as an oil change on my Subaru. They did it in less than six hours. People who work there are kind. I didn’t do price comparisons but I assume it’s fair for a reputable shop in Seattle. The car was returned vacuumed. I will come here again.

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… Read full review

This shop is easy to work with, always communicating clearly and quickly about any issues. They have fair prices and do quality work, and I trust them as stewards of my vehicle.

We’ve gone to Pacific Rim for many years and have always found them honest and helpful. We trust them and recommend them highly!

Great service, done quickly, I’ll be going back.

They were pretty quick and did a solid job as far as I can tell but I went in for a 60k mile service and ended up paying $2300 to replace all my break pads and calipers which even one of the other employees there thought was expensive. I was also about to go to someone else because they were too far from my house… Read full review

Their work seems top quality, and compared to the dealership they are more responsive, less expensive, and less invested in upselling you. And they wash the car.

I have been incredibly pleased with the service at Pacific Rim. They go above and beyond to ensure reliability in the cars I have taken to them. I really appreciate the knowledge they share and trust they can help me in maintaining my car for the long run.

Fast and flexible. Very trustworthy and great customer service.

Been coming here for years for all of our cars. Great service all the way around.

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… Read full review

As always, service was excellent. I had a 60K service on my Subaru and they did a great job - for less $$ than the Sub dealer. also replaced my brakes. I've been using them for 30 years and several cars - ALWAYS SATISFIED>

A great job at a reasonable price! They have kept a first generation crosstrek going safely. I feel good about taking my wife’s car here.

Pacific Rim has been reliable and proactive, plus their location is super convenient. We’ve had 3 types of cars serviced by them and each car is still running strong after 8 years.

Good communication, done on schedule

If you want to find a safe home away from the dealer service centers, then go to Pacific Rim Automotive. They are transparent, fair priced and do excellent work, while providing excellent communication along the way. My only regret is not finding them sooner.

Quick turnaround to replace dead battery!! Thanks so much! Staff are friendly, thorough, and very responsive!

Been a customer for years. Always great, timely service.

The only auto repair company where I would trust anything they told me my car needed. I LOVE Pacific Rim. The reason is because they do good work, they are reliable, and they are honest with what you need to do and what you don’t. I’ve been going there for over 10 years and don’t have a single complaint

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… Read full review

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.

Courteous, thorough service, with loaner car

Always honest, helpful and courteous!

Everything was fine. Car went in, car came out repaired. This was the 60k tune up, which was for a fixed price so there were no surprises.

Pacific rim automotive is the best car servicing business I have ever come across. They don't recommend work unless it is necessary, they guarantee their work. On the two occasions I have utilized their services, they have come in under bid. While it is not difficult to perform better service than Honda of Seattle,… Read full review

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.

I’ve been going to Pacific Rim for years. They always fit it right the first time.

For past several years I have taken my '97 Toyota 4 Runner here for minor and major service. Their work has always been good. Communication is excellent on what work is going to be done and the costs. They will tell you about issues that might cause problems long term giving you the option to fix them before they get more expensive.

Honest and Superior Service.

Knowledgeable, honest, speedy, and friendly

I have been going to Pacific Rim. For 20 years. I have trust that they will do my repair or maintenance correctly. They provide me with information on my repair and any potential issues, not to change me more, it's what maybe the best course to take. Sometimes I agree and sometimes I don't, either way they don't… Read full review
