Crown Hill Automotive - Seattle (WA)

Diane Hunter I found Masters Auto & Tire on the Next Door App. It had several reviews on how trustworthy they were so I gave them a try. Im not one that has ever followed a vehicle maintenance schedule and they did a free complete inspection that most repair shops would charge over $100 for. It was detailed and am more than satisfied with the work they did. They were friendly and I also found them trustworthy.

Nicolas Untz I can honestly say Downtown Automotive is, without a doubt, the best auto shop Ive ever been to. From the moment I walked in, everyone was incredibly welcoming and professional. They went above and beyond by showing me in detail the damaged parts, which really helped me understand the necessary repairs. Even better, they gave me an exact quote upfront, and there were absolutely no hidden fees or extra charges. If youre looking for an honest, transparent, and top-notch auto service, look no further. I highly recommend Downtown Automotive – you can trust them with your eyes closed!

Paul Worrlein I hired this shop for a pre- purchase inspection of a Porsche. The price was very reasonable, they were willing to talk to me beforehand and afterwards and were very patient with my many questions. They also sent me interim updates while they were doing the inspection. I feel like the inspection was fairly thorough, And they were very friendly to deal with. The technician who helped me is named Max. Five stars from me!

larry j Discovered them by happenstance. Unlike my old place that charges $1500 to investigate and automatically fix a check engine light problem—so basically you get a haircut for $1500 whether you want/need it or not—-Ace only asks for the diagnosis time then provided with a comprehensive report with pictures and cost estimates (also not something my old place does) then I decided what I wanted to do about the issues. Very prompt and courteous customer service. Will take all my cars back to Ace (and never take them back to my old place ). Thanks!

Melanie W We took our truck to Dan after the dealership replaced the AC unit in our truck every year for 3 years - never fixing the actual problem. Dan and his team found the root issue and it’s still running strong 2+ years later. Today, we took in our other vehicle for an oil change and it’s 60k mile service. I am still pinching myself that we have an incredibly knowledgeable, honest, and affordable mechanic that we can trust to take care of our cars with integrity and care. I highly recommend them.

Ashley Gothenquist Great place and super helpful staff! My rear tire popped during rush hour and AAA wouldnt be able to come for a long while, so I was very lucky to be only a block away from Jeffs. Despite the heat and the unexpected nature of the situation, Matt and Pops took the time to not just help me replace the popped tire with my spare, but patched the holes that caused the issue in the first place! It is such an encouraging experience to know that the local auto shop is not only the place with the comedic signs, but also a place with great character.

Maya Chavez This is arguably the best repair shop I have ever been to. I called to request an alternator replacement and if they could get me in, they provided an estimate over the phone and got me in same-day. They were true to their word following completion of the work with great value and no hidden agendas to say more things were wrong. They are welcoming and friendly from the second you walk in the door to after completion. They even got it done earlier than they thought. Due to work conflicts, I couldnt pick it up until the following morning and they said it was no problem/no charge. Highly recommend Johnsons, as this is now my go-to shop!!

Brandon Keller These guys are the homies. Had diagnostics and a used car inspection from these dudes. I’ve had bad car buying experience so wanted pre purchase inspection. Car was out in the boonies with no good local auto shops. They drove like 40miles on Super Bowl Sunday to meet me in parkland to check out a 06 Prius and test drive it with me. They were so chill and easily befriended the seller but also pointed out some minor maintenance issues. Michael asked him about all the proper maintenance related to common issues for the second generation Prius. By pointing out the rear shocks being slightly worn saved me some in my negotiation. And he ensured proper maintenance had been done in accordance with the service history provided. Only $200 for an inspection and like I said they drove all the way down on their day off to help a brotha out. The 06 Prius they inspected for me has been great and will last me a long time. And their diagnostic for my 99 cavalier abs module was accurate when KC Martin told me it could take them an unknown amount of time to diagnose. They came to my house I scheduled a time and even left the key for them under a rock is how much I trust them. When I got back from work was already in process of finishing diagnostics. Upon his recommendation from, got a used abs module for 30 bucks on eBay and plugged it in. Solved my abs issue! Couldn’t recommend these guys more.

Kyle Bierman I’ve been going to Crown Hill Automotive for a decade now and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the service I get from this crew. People there are real friendly, trustworthy and have a high level of expertise. I recently moved across town but will gladly make the trek out to Ballard to get both my vehicles service here.

Sleek Believe the 5 star reviews. Neco is knowledgeable, professional and so pleasant. He worked until the issue (not an easy one)was resolved, and my 04 Buick is running smoothly.
