North Bay Automotive - Arcata (CA)

Janet Vance This service is excellent! Fair prices and did the repairs so quickly that I was surprised to get my car back so soon. Friendly staff and very efficient. Been there before and had the same excellent service. Thank you very much. Keep up the good work.

Linda Edwards They are rocking it on my friends car basically doing a build up from the ground up.

Jason Osburn I’ve been going to German Motors for over a decade for work on our Audi and Mercedes, and I couldn’t recommend them any higher!! They are the nicest and most helpful team of people at an auto shop I’ve ever worked with! Their communication and efficiency absolutely shine, and most importantly…I trust them 100% to only recommend what’s best for ME, and to clearly lay out all my options! Go see em, trust me!

Danny Kelley Falcons Small Engine Repair provided me with fast, excellent service. They went above and beyond to take care of my broken generator, ensuring it was fixed promptly and efficiently. Their honesty and responsiveness in communication stood out, making the entire process smooth and hassle-free. I will definitely return to them for any future engine needs. Highly recommend!

Dee Dreslough I love their work authorization system. I prefer no surprises and they put everything down in (digital) writing with accurate prices and require each task be authorized. They did fantastic work, were friendly and the garage is spotless and well organized. I cant ask for more.

Jared Planter Over a year ago the shop I regularly took my 87 Westy to for maintenance and repairs lost their VW mechanic. I started searching for a new one and found Specialty Foreign Auto right around the corner from my house. Ive been with them for over a year now and have been absolutely pleased with the service they provide. Just to name a few Ive had oil changes, tune up, suspension upgrades, transmission maintenance and replacement amongst many other things done with them so far. The whole crew is fantastic. Theyre fair, honest, reliable and trustworthy. These old machines can be finicky so its been really great to have a shop that knows their way around them. It has been a pleasure working with the whole team and I look forward to continuing the relationship! Cheers to Craig, Jordan, Vern and team!

Maria Sandoval Joe and his team did a great job on my car. The service was excellent! The work was excellent. They really want to help people in this shop. My car was ready before the agreed time. I found him very generous with his explanation of the work needed to be done. He paid attention to details and was more than willing to fix additional details in my car. He went above and beyond to give me a good deal and to do a good job.

R McCracken These guys are great, they saved the day. Open on Sunday of a Holiday weekend, they recommended a tow company, and had my car running well after it unexpectedly broke down. Excellent customer service, beyond courteous, clean shop, these guys are professionals. They had my car back to me promptly without unexpected charges, and I was able to pay online. I never write reviews, but these guys deserve it, and I would give more stars if it were an option. Highly recommend

Nicholas Martin Brought my old 2000s Camry in because of a pretty serious oil leak. Joe and his team were kind enough to show me the problem up close, gave me options to help fit my budget, and worked hard to fix all the issues at the same price as the quote. Real nice guy, sweet dog, and very reliable service. Not the first time I’ve brought my car in, and definitely not the last. Always feels good driving home from Joes. Thanks guys!

Beau W Saunders Alex at Gowers Garage helped me get my 2012 Subaru Outback back on the road when I was dealing with a misfire and the dealer had no idea how to fix it. He quickly diagnosed the work, was transparent in the estimate, and had the car back to me when I thought it might be done for, all for a GREAT price. I highly recommend Alex if youre looking for help with your car.
