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.
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.
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.
Always great to work with these guys. They take great care of my 2007 Toyota Tacoma and show genuine appreciation for my business. I highly recommend them for your car maintenance and repair needs.
Estimate was 100% accurate. I was called for suggested additional work which I approved. Zero hassle drop off and pickup. My car was washed and ready to go as promised. Highly recommend this business.
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…
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!
Efficient, with quality work
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!
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.
Always prompt, polite and precise. When I take my car to pac rim I can be utterly confident that I’ll get the best service at a reasonable price. And I get my car back super clean. Thanks!
Very good service at a great price.
Great service I can trust. Pacific Rim is my go to.
Excellent service. They were professional, personable and all work was explained clearly. Highly recommend.
This was my first experience at Pacific Rim. They conducted general maintenance on my car and so far, it's running smoothly. Thanks. :)
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.
Great job and followup advice for what we will soon need.
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.
