I have a 2018 Toyota Corolla and when I brought her in Petr was helpful and kind, had great communication, and great knowledge without trying to fool me into paying more for what the car needed. I HIGHLY recommend and will be taking my car to him forever!

HSU student here with Toyota Corolla 2016, was looking to get my breaks, rotors, and spark plugs done, Petr took care of everything w/ fair prices (when dealership wanted 3x of that). I will definitely be going back to Petr in the future! He also recorded the replacing of the spark plugs on his youtube channel :)

Arcata is lucky to have Peter sharing his craft. He is the most honest and talented mechanic I have worked with. I live 3.5hrs away and am happy to drive here to get honest, high quality work done on my 4runner. Thank you Peter!
