My brake lights wouldn't shut off for so long that they killed my battery. Called Alexander and he was able to take me in right away. He immediately knew the fix and he and his crew got to work right away. For the amount of physical exertion I saw them put in, I felt the cost to me was more than fair. The sheer contortion they had to perform to fix it... I really think I got a bargain. This review is not from the perspective of a "car person" so, that's a grain of salt to take. I really don't know how much such a repair is *supposed* to cost. This review is from the perspective of a stressed out human being who, upon completion of service, felt like a valued and important customer. If you're anything like me, (all you know about cars is that gas makes them go) I can 100% vouch for Alexander's. You won't get that violated feeling when they give you the bill. read more

Great service from Alex. Super high IQ when it comes to water pumps. 5/5 would come again for my AC.

Always the best. it's the only place I trust for car repair. No frills (that raise the price). Broad expertise in general. great people. Highly recommen. read more

These guys are the best in every way! My car was stuck in "park mode" no matter how much I played with the gear shift. Called Alex's shop beforehand to ask if I could have the tow driver bring it there. He was very friendly & accommodating and had a bay waiting when my car was dropped off. He quickly diagnosed the problem (gear shift cable had deteriorated), got it replaced at a very reasonable price, and had my car ready to pick up in under 3 hours! Wow! Talk about fast, friendly, professional service and honest pricing! I'd give them more than 5 stars if I could. read more

My car recently started leaking antifreeze, so of course I took it to a place I knew I'd be treated right--Alexander's Automotive. As always, Alex and his team welcomed me with aloha, waited for the engine to cool, and quickly diagnosed the issue. Even though the shop was busy (as it often is), they got my car right in, made the necessary repairs, topped off the coolant, and had me back on the road in about two hours. SO grateful! At Alexander's, you're treated with respect, kindness, and genuine care. Alex and his team are not only friendly and professional--they really know their stuff. I regularly recommend them to anyone looking for an honest, knowledgeable, and dependable mechanic. read more

Alex is my go-to guy for anything to do with cars. His team is the expert! In less than 5 minutes, my tire is fixed. No lines. No sign in. Done. read more

Extremely knowledgeable and very fair priced highly recommend this place and Alexander

Alexander's is the best! Very professional, accommodating, friendly, knowledgeable, and honest. I will continue to solicit them and tell everyone I know how amazing they are! Mahalo Alexander & crew! read more

If you're looking for a mechanic with true aloha, this is the place! I'm new to the area and needed a mechanic ASAP. After calling around, Alexander's Automotive was the only shop that could get me in the very next day and they had a reasonable diagnostic fee that's waived if they find and fix the issue! (A lot of places don't waive the diagnostic fee) I brought my car in, and they quickly identified and resolved the problem. What really stood out was how Alex and his team took the time to explain everything clearly so I could understand what the problem was. As a woman, I've dealt with my fair share of mechanics who try to take advantage, assuming I don't know anything about cars but not here. Alex and his crew were nothing but kind, respectful, and helpful. Their pricing is fair, their work is solid, and they truly embody the spirit of aloha. read more

Was looking for someone local and small business that I could support instead of going to these commercial companies like Firestone, Midas. I was so happy with their services; i love the quality of their work and how they value my time. Plus they are always cheaper than the commercial businesses. Thanks Alex! read more

As Listed:Service Request :Quality : Value Aloha Hawaii.

Needed it done so agreed, as a female going to have a car issue looked at it always stand True... Here She Comes. #2 Quality Below Standard upon returning to Alexander shop was informed that my total will be $300 for a BUSHING AND LABOR. I understand one has Account payable- A shifting cable KIT on line $24.99. I inquired on the price and to take my $300 bushing was unable to locate bushing- thrown away. The clip to release the shift in my vehicle was not properly put back from where they had removed it from, found in cup holder. #3 Value You the readers and Consumers BE THE JUDGE!!

Alex is not just the best mechanic in town, he is very friendly and considerable. Always take care details whenever I visit the shop.

my car was sitting a week for nothing. I don't recommend.!!!!!!! I have to take different repair shop

My go to place from now on. Highly recommended. Alex is very personable,knowledgeable and professional.

Alex is one of the best mechanics on the island. He is fair and never over charges on his prices. I took my car to a friend who messed up my car, I'm just blessed that Alex made some time to fix my car for me the right way. Hands down best place to get your car repaired correctly and at a good price. read more

I really appreciate the honesty and professionalism that I received. This company came to me with the highest praise, and they did not disappoint! read more

I messaged Alexander once on the weekend about safety checks and he was very responsive and told me walk ins were good and when I went in at 12pm on Tuesday he wasn't in. one of the mechanics said come back at 230-300 so I did and he wasn't there again. Idk how they do with repairs but as far as safety checks they only seem to have one person authorized so it's hard to get a checked. Maybe I'll give um another try and see how it goes but so far first experience wasn't the greatest. read more

We're from out of town, and our rental car broke down. Alexander gave us space to make arrangements with the rental car company, safely store the car , and return to the airport for a replacement. His shop was very busy and he was still very nice and helpful to figure what seemed like an impossible situation! read more

I got introduced to this place because our companies accountant was looking around to service our company vehicles and she liked him haha and since then we only use Alex if anything is wrong with our company vehicles. I don't know why he doesn't have much reviews on here because MANY, MANY companies use him and those company employees bring their personal vehicle to get serviced by Alex because I'm one of them HAHA. I'm not going to mention names haha but give Alex a hollar on here because braddah man deserves it. Just like you companies rely on social media, same thing here and I know it'll be good reviews because I see you bring your vehicles back haha. I'm just saying. I'm not going to say what has already been said by the other reviewers haha because it's all true of what they wrote. I wanted to show some love. read more

Professional, fast and friendly. I can't say enough about the smooth and easy efficiency Alexander and his team got us in and out in less than 10mins for a safety check! Highly recommend! Best part is you can make an appointment and avoid all the waits and line ups. Alexander is a look you in the eye type guy! I'll definitely be returning for any of my car needs! Thanks Alexander for making our day! read more

Needed a place for a Safety Check not knowing there's one right by my house. Alex was great, he squeezed me in through his busy day and was very friendly and not rushing. The check went by fast and even made some small talk after. Definitely gonna come here again and recommend to all. read more

I was busy at work, so my Fiancee who is on the mainland right now called around to find me a last minute safety check appointment. He finally got a friendly voice on the other end who is the Owner, Alexander. He told my Fiancee to tell me to come on in today if I am able to. I gave Alexander a call after work and he told me to come by this afternoon, even in spite of being busy with other appointments. It's difficult to find people who will accomodate you that same day, so this is a big plus for me! Safety check went well and was pretty fast. I was even able to make it back home without fighting too much traffic. Alexander is personable, knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend his shop for your car needs!! Definitely 2 from me!! read more

Come to him for my Safety and Recon, really helped me out and made it super easy. Much appreciated!!

I've been coming to Alex for years now. He always gives his honest opinion about issues and his prices are the best around. I recently had some problems with my Mercedes and after being told by them the cooling fan was faulty I brought it to Alex for a second opinion. He was able to figure out the actual and repaired it for a much cheaper price. This is now my go to spot for car problems read more

My car started shaking and within an hour of calling, I got to bring my car in. I was super grateful to be seen on such short notice. He was honest about the problem & didn't try to sell me everything under the sun to make an easy buck off me. Quick & easy! read more

After going to a number of big name mechanics on island and being over charged for poor quality work I had heard about Alexander's Automotive and am now a lifetime customer. He is the most trustworthy and honest person I have ever been too which unfortunately is had to find anymore. I would highly recommend anyone looking to have their vehicles serviced to go to him. I would give him 10 stars if I could. read more

Look no further as no one is as good as Alex. Honest, diligent, and knows what he is doing! I have been bringing my cars to him for years, and have recommended him to so many who have also started using his service. And we are all VERY HAPPY! Alex also does safety checks and his shop is attached to a gas station. One stop shopping! Seriously, I can go on and on as to why you need to bring your vehicle to Alex's, but I won't. Just do it. JUST DO IT! read more
