    I had had my oil changed at another shop in town, and afterwards, I had a check engine light and an…read moreoil pressure light come on. I brought it in here for a second opinion to figure out what was wrong. The person I was working with was Brian. Brian ran the code, and it said that the oil pressure sensor was stuck in the open position. As he got into the diagnosis, apparently when the other shop did the oil change, a prong from the oil filter had broken off, and was blocking the oil pressure sensor. I went back over to the other shop, and spoke to the manager. The manager called over to Brian to find out exactly what had happened, and Brian went over it in detail. Based on what had happened, the manager at the other shop agreed to cover the cost of repairs to get my car back on the road. My car got fixed with no out-of-pocket cost to myself, and even though it was only three days before Christmas, when I brought my car in, Brian had my car ready the following morning. Two days before Christmas. I highly recommend this shop. They will take very good care of you. Thank you to Brian for getting my car done, and for having my back in this situation. I can't recommend this shop enough.

    If you're a AAA member or considering this shop, I strongly urge you to read this entire review…read more It's lengthy and detailed, but the seriousness of what occurred makes it worth your time. Reading this could save you thousands of dollars, along with unnecessary stress, expenses, and avoidable damage. On Friday, November 14, 2025, my truck was parked outside my residence and would not start. I contacted AAA for towing assistance. The AAA-approved towing company transported the vehicle to Old Town Auto Service in Eureka, California, which is also a AAA-approved repair facility. I was present during both the loading and unloading of the vehicle. At that time, no damage was visible, and the tow-truck operator appeared competent and to be following proper procedures. On Monday, November 17, 2025, Old Town Auto Service notified me that the vehicle was ready for pickup and reported that the non-start condition had been caused by a failed fuel pump, which they stated had been repaired. Upon entering the vehicle, I immediately observed that the interior fuse-box panel cover on the driver's side was missing. I reported this to the mechanic, and two employees located and reinstalled the missing panel. When I attempted to drive the vehicle out of the parking lot, I immediately detected an abnormal steering condition accompanied by an unusual noise. I returned to the service office to report the issue, and an employee accompanied me outside to inspect the vehicle. This steering issue did not exist prior to leaving the truck in Old Town Auto's possession. The mechanic opened the hood to inspect the engine bay. At that time, I observed that the fuse-box cover in the engine compartment had been improperly installed and was misaligned sitting sideways rather than properly seated and secured. I also observed a smashed spray-can cap lodged near the hood-latch area, which had left a clearly visible circular mark on the vehicle. Multiple service managers and mechanics were present as I raised these concerns. The mechanic suggested the noise might be related to the power-steering pump. However, the reservoir was full and there were no visible signs of leakage. I then inspected underneath the vehicle and discovered that the CV-axle boot had been torn open. The grease was clean and free of dirt or debris, indicating that the damage was extremely recent. Another mechanic independently stated that the damage appeared "very fresh." During this time, an employee from the front office made a joking remark about replacing the axle; given the circumstances, I did not find this appropriate. When I asked how the vehicle could have been declared road-ready, no meaningful explanation was provided. I was told only that "these things happen," and the damage was attributed to the towing company without any supporting basis. However, I could not even drive out of their parking lot without immediately noticing a major steering problem. If a test drive had actually been performed, the mechanic would have noticed this immediately. Furthermore, the CV-axle damage is significant and very obvious. Both the tow-truck driver and I would have seen that damage during loading, and we would have reported it upon arrival. Additionally, several mechanics had moved the vehicle, pushing it into the lot, repositioning it onto the lift, and allegedly test-driving it. Any of them would have noticed such visible damage. I was told that the shop would keep the vehicle to further inspect the damage and contact me the following day. However, Old Town Auto did not contact me. On the morning of November 19, 2025, I called the shop for an update. I was informed that the CV axle was broken and required replacement, and that the water pump was also leaking. Neither issue existed when the vehicle was delivered to Old Town Auto. The sole reason the vehicle was originally brought in was to address a fuel-system failure. I was further informed that although they had previously stated the vehicle was road-ready, they could provide me with a quote if I wished them to repair the newly reported damage. These circumstances are completely inconsistent with the condition of my truck when it was placed in Old Town Auto Service's custody. After raising these issues, the manager contacted me, offering $200 on the condition that I not pursue any claims or post anything negative about the shop, while simultaneously refusing to address the damage to my truck and insisting it be towed off their lot. This attempt to silence legitimate concerns only underscores the lack of accountability, professionalism, and honesty I experienced throughout this process. Based on the available evidence and my firsthand observations, I have every reason to believe the damage occurred while the vehicle was under Old Town Auto Service's care, custody, and control. I do not recommend this shop to anyone, especially AAA customers who expect reputable, trustworthy service.

    We were in Eureka doing some work, when we experienced some significant issues with our Chevy…read moreSuburban. In great need of our vehicle for work, we pulled into the local Chevrolet dealership. Due to it being late in the evening, they told us they could not help us, but very politely and with confidence referred us to Pro Pacific Auto Repair. That says a lot and puts great integrity into the review I am leaving about Pro Pacific Auto Repair. Upon arriving at Pro Pacific Auto Repair in Eureka, CA, we were greeted by a very nice service advisor who was very understanding to our situation, with it being 4:30pm and with the issue we were facing. Another gentlemen said he would put a code reader on the car and let us know what the problem with the vehicle was. He immediately advised us of the problem, which was an issue with the fuel system. This gentlemen, Mike Bates, who turned out to be the owner of Pro Pacific, could not have more comforting, friendly, professional and most importantly determined to get us back on the road. He and his staff immediately jumped on the problem, they stayed overtime, and within one hour had us back on the road. The best part of this experience was the honesty and integrity in diagnosing the problem, and the integrity in the cost of fixing the issue. I say this with great conviction, "that you all in Eureka are very lucky to have a great company like Pro Pacific Auto Repair." A Big Thanks to the entire staff, especially Mike and Ford and the two wonderful service advisors. Bless You All and next time we are in town we stopping by, hopefully to just say "Hello,"

They figured out two different, unrelated problems that were happening suddenly at the same time. I'm so grateful they took the time to ask the questions and do the testing. No problems since I got my car back! Considering the amount of time they spent asking me about it as part of the diagnosis, the work they did, and the rude they gave me the price was super reasonable.
