“I sold cars for over thirty years.
I have bought many mufflers and exhausts in my life.
Today so many places are gouging their prices down our throat.
This place is very fair.
I was completely satisfied with their work and the price was less than I expected.
Any exhaust work I need , I will go there.”

“PM Auto excels in all categories. I was dealing with electrical issues to get my fan motor working, and Paul Michael didn’t hesitate to give me expert advice to try and tackle the problem. When I reached the end of my ability, PM Auto saved the day by taking care of the problem. They have pride in their work and they honor what they do. Denae at the front desk is a pleasure to work with, and she makes the whole process seamless and easy. I cannot recommend PM Auto enough! They will be my go-to mechanic from now on.”

“I drove over from Spokane to buy a Mini Cooper S. B&R was able to get me in last minute on a Sunday for a pre-purchase inspection. Based on their report, I was able to save money on my purchase and they accurately assured me that it would be able to make the drive back to Spokane. I'm so grateful that they were available!”

“TL;DR version: Tower Transmission has great pricing (for a mechanic, anyway), absolutely honors their warranty, and went above and beyond for me when my transmission went out. Would recommend them to anyone who needs repairs, even for non-transmission work.

Long version: The day I moved into my new house, 5/23/24, my transmission decided to give up the ghost and my check engine light came on in my 2012 Dodge Charger. I called the dealer and several shops in the area, and everyone wanted at least $200 just to look at my car and diagnose the problem. Luckily, one of the shops I called recommended Tower Transmission.

They were able to fit me in less than a week later, and did not charge me to look at it. In addition to the bad transmission, I had a misfire in two cylinders. James explained my options and worked up quotes for each one. I ultimately chose to have them rebuild the transmission and do a tune up with new coils, wires, and spark plugs. My decision was primarily cost-based, as Tower came in more than $1000 less than the next closest estimate.

They originally estimated at least 3 weeks based on parts and their current workload, but knew I was going out of town (and needing my only car) at the end of that timeframe and managed to get it done in just over a week.

Unfortunately, the universe has it out for me, and one of the parts (a gasket, I think) they installed failed, leading the check light to come on less than a day after I picked it up. I took it back in and they found the problem, repaired it under warranty, and got it back to me, still in time for my trip!

Cue the universe, my CEL came back on two weeks later. Tower again took it apart and replaced multiple parts to try and identify the problem. This time, it wasn’t easy, and they ended up having to replace the entire transmission through their parts supplier. Again, they covered it under warranty.

I finally picked my car up again (it had been two months since I originally brought it in at this point) and 58 miles later, 8/7/24, my CEL came on AGAIN. This time, it wasn’t a transmission issue, but a bad sensor in my oil system. I showed up unannounced this morning, and they worked their butts off, got the part, had it fixed in less than two hours for me, and even waived the labor charge… I’m guessing they felt bad for me at this point, knowing the hell I’d been through with no car for the better part of two months (through no fault of theirs.)

At this point, I’m praying there are no more issues, but if there are, I will 100% take it back to Tower Transmission. I cannot thank Roland, James, and the crew at Tower Transmission enough for their efforts and commitment to their customers!!!”

“Since we RV full-time and it was time to get some maintenance work done, we found Hags Automotive and they were near our RV location, Midway RV Park.

Needed an oil change / fuel filters and they were able to get us in and complete the work on the same day for the price we were quoted. Mike was great and I told him to see if we needed anything else and they changed the air filter for us.”

“After my wife's father passed recently, my mother in law was left with an suv that needed a lot of work. Left and right ball joints, left and right hub assembly's, shocks, serpentine belt, transmission fluid change and front end alignment. It was Wednesday, Jorge was able to fit the suv in for early Friday am, and even made it possible for us to pick up on Saturday. This is great customer service in my book! Most all repair shops close for the weekend. In addition he had quoted a very reasonable price for all the work that was done. I was able to come back to home base on Sunday as scheduled. I started working on car's at 18, Jorge was 17. Try Auto Care Center first. Enjoy your day.”

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! My car was the victim of a smash and grab that left my rear door window totally busted. He not only got me in THAT DAY, but provided fast service at an incredible price (I called probably around 20 different glass places in Centralia, Chehalis, & Olympia and he was significantly more affordable than ALL of them). I’ve had the new window for a few days and it’s perfect, I couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience. I won’t go to anyone else for my auto glass needs in the future. Thank you for your help!! :)Service: Auto side window replacement”

“I cannot say a big enough "Thank You" to James and the team that fixed my truck. I was camping in my 5th wheel at MossyRock Park when my tow vehicle wouldn't start. I used AAA and they had a list of mechanics to call. All of the places I called were booked out for weeks. Transmissions Unlimited was the only place that listened to my concerns. I had 4 days of camping reservations and then we had to move the 5th wheel. I also had to pick up my daughter at the airport, so I needed to get my truck fixed and get back on the road. Turns out my water pump went out, which in-turn broke my serpentine belt. They also found water in my differential and I badly needed an oil change. All of this was fixed in 2 days and James drove 45 minutes to my camping spot and gave me a ride back to the shop at no charge. Highly recommend them.”

“If you're looking for a short review, sorry, but Darren and the crew do great things and I want to talk about it. I called him for a quote when my 2.5L Jeep engine snapped an exhaust valve at highway speed, sending it through the number 2 piston at about 254,000 miles. He was very thorough with the questions he asked regarding what I wanted done, what parts I wanted to order, etc. I pulled and disassembled the engine, brought them the parts, they machined the head, block, rods and crank, got me a new camshaft, head bolts, pistons, rings, bearings, rebuilt the head (valves, etc), primed and painted the block and head, just really did a great job overhauling everything. He was even patient with me while I asked dumb questions during my at-home reassembly. I got the engine back together, dropped in, bolted up and wired, and it started right away. I let it come to temperature, spent some time slowly revving it, took it on the highway, and it's running great. I've got nothing but good things to say about the work Britco does, and the attention to detail Darren puts into both taking a job and completing a job is much appreciated. Great work and thank you so much! Hopefully I get another 250,000 out of the rebuilt engine. These guys know their craft.”

“Walt has been my "go-to guy" for mechanical work for quite a while. There are no other professional mechanics that I trust more than Walt! He's always done great work on my vehicles. Prices are great, he's honest and up front with his customers. I owe Walt and his crew at Grease Monkey Garage a huge thank you for what they did today!!”

“After fighting for over a month (and 2 other shops) to figure out why my truck had a vibration, I took it to Kresky. They took care of a couple minor things that were not noticed by my mechanic, and didn't stop until they solved the issue. They kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I was taken care of. The price was reasonable and the customer service was top notch. This is the 3rd time that Kresky has worked on my vehicles... and they've earned a loyal customer.”
