Everything was great and I have already made multiple recommendations. It makes me feel relieved just knowing that Pacific Motor Services is there. I feel like I can call whenever and be taken care of in an honest, straightforward way. As a female I think I'm automatically set up to be taken advantage of and that is not at all the impression I got from my experience there. I trust that any advice they give me, is an honest opinion with my best interest in mind. I also really appreciated their willingness to work with me and most importantly, my warranty. Once other shops in the area learned that they potentially had to deal with that, they all of a sudden "had to call me back" or they were "really busy at the moment and could I call back tomorrow?"And one last thing and this is no joke- prior to visiting Pacific Motor Services, I had a full, $140 "safety" inspection done by another, local auto body shop who will remain nameless. Susi Auto- ooops, I told! The results of their inspection indicated that among many other bulls**t things, I needed all new front brakes (not cheap). This was determined because the "brake fluid contained a high moisture content and a low boiling poing (point maybe???)" WTF does this mean? Because of this moisture content descrepancy and bad boiling business, they also declared my situation to be "a safety hazard." Thank goodness I didn't have the work done there because Pacific Motor set me straight and provided a REAL, HONEST inspection!!!! TY

We are sorry for all your other horrible,dishonest experiences at other repair shops.We are happy you trust us and feel you can call anytime you want,cause you can! Thanks for the kind words. Service Manager,Beau Blackwell

Once again, Pacific Motor Service went the extra mile for us. On a Friday, our son headed down the rural coast south of Carmel and called me to say that our minivan's "Check Engine" light had come on and the coolant looked a little low. I told him to call Pacific Motors and ask their advice, especially since we needed the minivan to carry gear for a long trip the next day. Service manager Beau told him to bring the car in right away but to check the fluid level every few miles. My son arrived at the shop only 20 minutes before closing time, but Beau had the problem diagnosed, staying late to be sure we'd be okay for the trip the next day. I took the car in several days later for replacement of the defective sensor. We were not turned away that Friday, so we did not need to seek another mechanic willing to stay late for us. Thank you, Pacific Motor Service team!

It's truly our pleasure and I feel,our responsibility to go the extra mile for any of our customers.We try to go above and beyond to satisfy our customers and meet there needs.Thanks for the kind review. Service Manager,Beau Blackwell

I called the afternoon before and asked if you could do a 30,000-mile service the next morning. The answer was "yes," and it would take about 2 hours. I brought it in at 9:00 and was called at 11:30 to say that it was ready. That is good service, especially on such short notice.

It's always our pleasure to see you Mr. Fremgen.We were also glad to get you in and out in the time frame we promised.Plus we even detailed it for free of charge in that time frame. Service Manager,Beau Blackwell

As always, the whole experience at Pacific Motors was quick, easy, pleasant, on my schedule, all questions and issues addressed..... just a great team to work with. They really do feel like old friends. Really appreciated the rides you provided for me both back to my home, then back to the shop so I didn't have to sit around and wait. :-)

Thank you for the review....and for the kind words. We strive to provide the best level of service possible. Look forward to your next visit.

I thought that Beau did a great job in diagnosing why the service engine soon light was coming on, when I had just been in to do some basic maintainance anyways.

Mr. Mcpherson all the credit is due to my highly qualified technicians.They are amazing at what they do and because of that its very rare the problem doesn't get fixed the first time. I will pass this kind review on to them. Service Manager,Beau B.
