I've been going here for years for my safety checks. Always quick, convenient and polite. When I've had repairs by them they've been fair, good prices and good work. Very Pono. I'll keep coming back. read more

Great service! Friendly staff! I trust the staff with my vehicles and billing! I've been a loyal customer for over ten years and I take all of vehicles to them! read more

Don't go here. I took my car in because my check engine light came on. Prior to my appointment I did some research on line so I pretty much already knew what the issue was. In the end they said they tightened a battery cable and charged me $ 158.83 for nothing. FIND SOMEONE ELSE so you don't get robbed like I did. read more

Braddah's Auto Repair - What a rip off. They didn't fix anything. - Auto Repair Near Me - Kailua Kona, Hawaii

I take all my vehicles here for maintenance and safety checks. The staff are locals who are honest about what needs to be done with the vehicles. They always call me prior to fixing my car to explain what needs to be done and why. And they always have a good attitude. Great representation of aloha. read more

I was driving around Kona and noticed the steering was off. It was making a weird noise and felt vibrations in the steering wheel. I stopped at a couple of places to have it checked out but they were "too busy" or would not see me because I didnt have an appointment. I Yelp'd 3B's Auto Repair and stopped there. They were busy as well but the mechanic and I forgot to get his name was very helpful said he would look at it to see if it would safe to drive back to Waikoloa Village. He checked it out and the fix was minor. That is what I call service. Mahalo!!! read more

Mahalo Kealii, Really appreciate the efforts. Diagnosed the possible issue(s) with my 1992 F250, and gave me an honest answer if it was within your scope of operations. I'm sorry it wasn't, your fees for the service provided were more than fare. Looking forward to see if you folks can work with my other newer trucks. read more

Denny and her crew are honest, fast, and reasonable for the quality of work they do. Go check 'em!

Deni could not help me due to type of car But...took a minute from her day to link me up with the perfect service provider for my car. People helping People for Nothing is the greatest trait and hardest to find these days - a diamond in the rough! read more

WOW!!! I would give a hundred stars for Ian, Denny(owners).and Rob(trainee) Anyone looking for an honest car repair shop-LOOK NO MORE come here. I am a senior woman and was bamboozled by the dealership about the brakes on my car and was really frightened I was driving an unsafe vehicle but their estimated repair was crazy. My first conversation with Denny and meeting Ian- I knew I was in good hands-they really DO care -they are knowledgeable, professional and most of all KIND. Truly ALOHA and my car is like new!!! susan read more

The fine folks at 3B's are as honest as they come. They only do what is needed and at a very fair price. The front desk gal, Mahea is such a wonderful asset. She is so helpful and really knows her stuff. My sisters car died in the drive way and another shop basically said they wouldn't touch it, probably needs a new engine! Got the car over to 3B's and they changed the timing belt and replaced the water pump and we were back on the road and more importantly back to the beach!!! I highly recommend this auto repair shop, make them your first stop for all your repair needs. read more

My car was making loud noises and I thought I needed a tune up. This shop was honest and said my spark plugs were fine and that I actually needed a new water pump. When I picked up my car it ran like a dream, nice and quiet. I highly recommend this shop. Fair prices and great service. read more

Fast and friendly service at a reasonable price for the repairs I had done. I will be bringing another car to them soon for work as well. Only positive comments for 3B's service so far! Keep up the good work and you will keep my business! read more

They're awesome. I went to several other mechanics in the area that were unsuccessful at solving an issue with my wheel bearings. 3B's got it first try in 30 minutes for less than half of what I was charged prior. I love these guys. I love this shop. read more

On 10/04//19, my wife and I had issues starting our car in a parking lot off Palani. I was recommended by the lot from where we purchased our car to see 3B's Auto Repair & Service. We had AAA tow it to 3B's and couple hours later after installing new battery, trouble shooting the starting issue and repairing it, we are back on the road. Great Service, reasonable prices, I think they will be hard to beat. Thanks again 3B's read more

This place came to my rescue today while I was running errands in Kona I was about a block and a half away from 3 B's auto repair when my gearshift was stuck in neutral and I couldn't go anywhere. This nice man and his wife helped me get my car back in my parking space and then told me that I should go to 3 B's. He highly recommended them. So I walked over there and they were so kind and actually walked over to my car so that they could try to get my car back to the shop instead of having it towed and then after they're lunch break they fixed it. I live in Waikoloa and I wasn't quite sure what I was going to do if I couldn't get my car fixed I was kind of panicking. They went above and beyond and I am so grateful to the Aloha that they showed me. I didn't even know this place existed. It's tucked behind the Mercedes Benz garage. If I could give them more stars I would!! Mahalo read more

I'm not much of a Yelper or reviewer of any sort but when someone goes to such great lengths to do something for me, I cannot withhold sharing my gratitude (with the public) any longer! Sorry 3B's, I owed you this review for a looong time now....like years ago! I have been using Ian (figuratively speaking) almost exclusively for 10 years since he first worked at Automotive Engineering Kona (he had just left Orchid Isle Ford). Being a Ford guy my whole life, I was super stoked that there was a Ford "specialist" at A.E.K. that was going to work on my Ford car and truck (Mustang GT / and F150 ) going forward. I was always very satisfied with the work that had been done on my vehicles at that point at A.E.K. It wasn't until Ian opened 3B's around the corner did I now start taking all my vehicles exclusively to 3 B's (including company vehicles). What I really want to emphasize about Ian (and his wife Denny) is that he really cares about his customers and that caring was evidenced so many times over the years. One time Ian had serviced my drag car- a supercharged mustang GT convertible, and when I got it home, I thought I had a serious problem with the supercharger that he had serviced earlier in the day. After calling Ian and describing the problem, he took no chances by having me drive the vehicle back to him at the shop....he brought tools and came to my house in the evening after work and worked on the car! A mechanic (with a brick and mortar store front) came to my house in the evening instead of making me pay for a tow truck to bring the car to him because he was genuinely concerned! Amazing, really! Turned out there was nothing wrong, I had just misread the fluid level in the supercharger thinking it was out of fluid (it was soo clear, was hard to see). For my error in reading the fluid level, Ian didn't charge me for the service call to my house even though it was my mistake. From brake jobs to alternator replacements to pretty much any kind of repair that I've needed, Ian and team 3B's has done it for me. Even the really difficult repairs like changing 8 hopelessly "stuck" spark plugs (the original plugs had been in the Ford truck for 10 years and 120,000 miles), Ian was able to extract all of 8 of them, including 3-4 of the broken ones! Not any mechanic can do that, they were broken off in the heads. He has really put new life into that vehicle (2004 Ford 150 4x4)! The final straw came last week which compelled me to finally write this review..... I was on my way to Costco to have 4 tires installed on the 2004 Ford 150 when just as I pulled into their parking lot my battery light came on.... so I called Ian to see what it meant. He advised me my alternator was not charging and that I'm running off the battery. He could get me in on Monday to replace it (it was a Friday). Well, when my tires were done being mounted and it was time to drive away, the truck would not start up...the battery was completely drained and dead. The Costco tire center team could care less, they wanted my truck out of their bay so they could start their next job (how compassionate!). In a panic, I called Ian. He dropped what he was doing and left his shop with tools AND a battery to get me out of there but it didn't end there....Instead of replacing my alternator on Monday, he had me go straight to his shop, he gave me his truck so I could go home after the Costco fiasco and then he proceeded to install a new alternator in my truck! It was all pau at 4:30.....same day, Friday! That was one of the most incredibly nice things ANYONE has done for me.....he rescued me from being completely stuck with a dead vehicle at Costco, dead alternator, dead battery (and braindead!!) AND gave me his own vehicle to use, then proceeded to fixed mine!! Howz that!! To top it off, when I brought his truck back and picked mine up, I left Ian a cash gratuity in his vehicle. When he found it, he refused to take it stating that my business as a customer was gratuity enough. There's not many people on this Island with that kind of generosity and aloha! Not only is Ian a top notch mechanic, his customer service skills are second to none! As far as I'm concerned, Ian and 3B's has my business for life! Thank you very much Ian (and Denny) for all you do. Sincerely, Mark C. (Former Owner Kona Jet Ski Rentals & Manta Ray Dives of Hawaii/Neptune Charlie's) read more

The 3B's staff, are courteous, experienced, with high quality workmanship. Their turn-around-time is quite reasonable. We highly recommend them. read more

Awesome place to go to in town! Repairs done in a timely manner and Denny gave me great customer service! I would definitely come back here again! read more
