Great service, nice people, and the price was good compared to other local shops. Communication was good but could've been a bit better.

I'm thankful to have found someone local who can help me with my Honda. Service was great Front Desk staff was kind. read more

Bought a used Subaru and noticed they were missing the 120k mile maintenance. The previous owners used Hoshi for the most recent oil change and I decided to take the vehicle here as well. Called and was able to set up an appointment with Judith to get the service done the following week. It was dropped off at 9am and received a call it was ready at 330. Judith was very friendly and helpful going over the vehicle maintenance that was done and what issues were found that may require some attention. There is a coffee shop next door and they do offer a ride for drop off or pick up if you need one when leaving your car with them. Michael is very nice and felt safe riding with him. read more

Hoshi has been servicing my Subaru for about 5 years. I go in whenever I need a pre-trip inspection, and for major maintenance. They only recommend service that you actually need and don't press for additional sales. They also do good work, and provide references when there's something that would be best for someone else to handle. They don't have loaner cars, but they do have a shuttle that can drop off or pick up anywhere in Boulder. read more

Hoshi Motors has been my go-to place for car maintenance and repair for more than 10 years. Customer service and quality is outstanding. Very notable is the stability of staffing over time and the friendly, interested quality of the interactions with staff over life's little problems with one's car. Michele Packard read more

Great service, value, and honesty. I don't take my car anywhere else. Thanks Hoshi!

We bought a new (to us) Honda Element, and took it to Hoshi to get checked out. This place and the techs in particular are just incredibly skilled and helpful. Our tech was Nick Schaller. After this tech finished with our Honda, it was like a completely different car. Money well spent at this place! If you have any issues with your car, do yourself a favor, don't waste time shopping around. Just take it to Hoshi, and if it's a Honda, see Nick! Thanks Hoshi for your help and for hiring good people! read more

I took my subaru there and they chased down an A/C issue that took a lot of diagnostic time. It was still being weird after the repair, but they were pretty honest about what level of money it would take going forward. I left it since it was around Autumn and days were getting cooler. They fixed my taillight just as a bonus and didn't charge for it. I also took my toyota there to get a wheel bearing replaced. They did it for a very fair price. I was pretty sure I could do the other damaged one myself so I called to see if they used basic tools or needed a shop press. I got the mechanic on the line and he said he didn't need one so I just did the other one myself. Its good to see the so successful and upgraded their location to the new one next to the Goat. read more

Great shop. It's hard deciding where to go when you need quick and fair service. Go here.

These guys are a class act. They spent a bunch of time with me answering my questions and were an absolute pleasure to deal with. In a world of companies making you feel like you're wasting their time, it's refreshing to work with the team at Hoshi Motors. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to refer them to anyone I know. read more

They are amazing. Great honest and reliable service. Definitely recommend them. Consistently fair and always help with a great smile and attitude. read more

Great service, they follow COVID guidelines and make everyone very easy. I felt like they were very trustworthy and fair with pricing, even recommended me for a few things to other shops around town that would help me the cheapest. Would definitely recommend. read more

Honest, straightforward and no bs. I think this will be my permanent repair shop for my Toyota.

Absolutely incredible service - I've been going to them for over 20 years and I will drive from Denver to Boulder for their prices. The service is impeccable and they are up front and honest about their prices. They give lots of suggestions and break down what has to be done and what can be done at a later time - an incredible option when you have surprise fixes. read more

I had them give our Acura a checkup, change oil, brake pads & rotor. They were great to work with, did an excellent job, finished quickly, and were reasonable on price. I see why they get five stars from so many reviewers. I will definitely go back there! read more

Normally when I approach a garage about a car problem, I expect to leave feeling like they wanted to be my overly-aggressive attention-starved cell mate, and I prepare to turn around and grab my shoelaces. Hoshi isn't normal. It's exceptional. Even if you have but a passing knowledge of automobiles, likely problems will be explained to you in plain English. If every garage were this were this good, we would all be able to do what we wish we could do - show our dealer's "service" department that they're "Number One", only not with the our index fingers. read more

For years, Hoshi Motors has been a local favorite. I finally took my car here, and can understand why. The mechanics are professional, thorough, and most important, HONEST. You might pay a little more to have you car serviced here but its worth it. This repair shop specializes in Hondas and Acuras. read more

So nice. So honest. So busy, as a result. Book an appointment as soon as you notice the problem, so they can fit you in! More than once they've looked at my car, and told me something wasn't worth fixing (it's a '98 Camry)... then sent me off without charging me a dime. They are the ruling-est mechanics ever. What they did fix, stayed fixed. And, cute dogs to calm your nerves. read more

I've been long overdue in writing a review for Hoshi Motors. All my prior experiences have been outstanding in terms of their professionalism, friendliness, and above all, honesty. An example: As I was driving into Boulder for work, my Subaru's CEL suddenly began to flash--an indication that a problem needs to be addressed ASAP--and developed an alarmingly rough idle. I immediately took it to Hoshi; while I obviously did not have a pre-scheduled appointment, they were very accommodating. The problem turned out to be a misfiring cylinder that could be fixed by changing the spark plugs and wires. Ironically, I had a set of both at home and could therefore do it myself; however, given the urgency of the problem I had Hoshi replace them for me. Having been made aware of this situation, they offered to charge only for the labor. This is one of several experiences I've had with this shop in which they have been absolutely fair towards me. (And like other reviewers here, they have not charged me for their time to diagnose what turned out to be non-problem with my cars.) Hoshi's excellent reputation is well deserved and I would recommend them to anyone who needs their vehicle serviced without any hesitation. read more

Lori and the mechanics at Hoshi have been our mainstay in Colorado for almost 10 years. From the rusting '87 Civic we drove out from the East Coast (that made it all that way and promptly died) to the late-model Toyota we now have--they've worked on every car we've had, doing everything from oil changes to a major front end accident repair. We started with one mechanic and when he left Hoshi several years ago we moved over to another without a hitch. They're friendly, honest, expert and down-to-earth (the waiting area is like a front porch/living room). They're not the cheapest but they're what we've learned (the hard way) to look for: avoid the dealerships and the corporate chains, and seek the independent shops run by decent human beings who know what they're doing and charge reasonably for top quality work. We trust them without hesitation...complete peace of mind. Only problem now is that we live 40 mins away in Denver... so we still go there for major work but are looking around for a neighborhood shop for convenience. read more

I got an oil change the other day. Real friendly service good job. I will certainly go back.

Hoshi is fantastic. They are straight-forward and honest about the parts they use and the service that your car needs. I really appreciate it when a mechanic takes me seriously and does not try to sell me things that I don't need. Hoshi fits the bill. Recently my 2000 Honda Civic was acting funny. The headlights were getting brighter and dimmer while I drove. I took it to the Honda dealer and despite the fact that I told them I had just replaced the bulbs, they told me it was the bulbs, changed them, and excessively overcharged me. The problem did not stop so I took it to Hoshi. They immediately diagnosed it as my alternator and replaced it the same day. My Honda is running great and I will keep taking it back there. read more

I have never regretted a penny i have spent there. Everything is top notch. 100% service quality, honesty. i will only buy cars that they will work on. In 1989 I tried to impress my then girlfriend by re rebuilding her carburetor. after hours of humiliation I gave up & went to Hoshi. Lori's response was to try to advise me on how to fix it. Since then I have been taking my cars to her. Collin read more

One of the biggest concerns for a busy working kid-driving mom with no other backup car options is a car that suddenly starts making funny noises. At first, I hoped that it would naturally go away but when that didn't work and my fear of becoming stranded somewhere set in, I asked friends for a trustworthy place to have it checked out. Hoshi motors was highly recommended. I happened to be near it one day and decided to stop by to try to schedule an appointment and get a feel for the place. Brandon (whom I found out later is the owner) was extremely professional and, most importantly, kind. He sensed my anxiety over this issue. He got me an appointment 3 days later. He also offered to listen to my car and was able to assure me it was ok to wait until my appointment. The day of my appointment was very seamless as well. I dropped off my car and they offered a shuttle service that was able to take me to work. (So awesome and convenient!) The driver was delightful and very polite. They identified and fixed the problem promptly. My minivan is great and running smoothly now. I highly recommend this establishment. The entire staff is so courteous, kind, and noticeably happy to be there. This is truly a one of a kind place. Go see for yourself! read more

We went to Hōshi Motors with high hopes after the majority of friends recommended (although one set of friends did not like the way they handled misdiagnosis dealings). Unfortunately we have had more bad experiences than good over the past few years so we will go elsewhere. The issue is around small mistakes requiring us to return, and typically the car has had new problems upon picking it up... The desk staff are professional and courteous - it's the poor diagnostics and what feels like a little price gouging that soured us. read more

Outstanding service! Everyone in the office is extremely nice and they genuinely care about fixing your vehicle. I highly recommend taking your vehicle here. read more

My husband brought our Subaru Outback to Hoshi Motors after buying some suspension stabilizers online. They were clearly pretty busy, but asked how they could help. After a few minutes they came back and said, "Let's get it on the lift and take a look." They installed them in just a few minutes and also did a walk around the car while it was on the lift. If we were staying in Boulder, long term, they would be our "go to" garage. No question. read more

Don't get screwed by a dealership again. Go to Hoshi instead. These guys are professional, honest, and friendly. When I was in the office last week, the cashier presented me with the bill which I agreed was correct. As he was ringing up the total, he noticed a mistake in the labor amount charged. He corrected the error on the spot which was in my favor by more than $50 on a $210 bill. He could have easily charged me the incorrect amount and I wouldn't have known the difference. Hoshi's staff's integrity is beyond reproach. I'll never take my car anywhere else. read more

I took my car in for service and Bob was right there to help me. A little while after I left Brandon called me to confirm what I wanted done. They installed my new brakes for LESS than quoted, perfectly and exactly when promised! Checked everything else and gave me an estimate for what was needed next. AWESOME! read more

These are solid, down-to-earth people running a high-quality, down-to-earth business. Even when you bring them a car that they don't handle, they provide super high-quality referrals. An excellent busienss with integrity. read more

They are GREAT!!! Once my Honda broke down in a parking lot and I was about to get my car towed to the closer dealership before a friend told me to try Hoshi... a quick phone call later they diagnosed it as a fuse problem that cost $5 and they even lent me the tool to fix it myself! They could have made good bucks off me but they were incredibly honest and treated me like an important customer. I will definitely be going back if I have any more problems with my car! read more

The place to get Honda/Acura work. Great attention to detail. Honest and very friendly folks. I would trust them with any work they can do.

Hoshi is not the least expensive place to have your car serviced, but I feel like I trust them so much more than anywhere else, which makes them a good value in the long run. I have had major and minor repairs and service over the years and have always been happy with the result. Highly recommend them. read more

The friendliest oil change of my driving career.

Hoshi is honestly like taking my car to some friends to have it looked at, as opposed to taking it to a mechanic and waiting to be screwed. I've been going to Hoshi off and on (as the make and model of my car would allow) for the last fifteen years. I have never once walked out feeling taken advantage of, or like a stupid gullible girl. The years when I had a VW I went to another place in town, and always paid out the nose for stuff that I wasn't sure I actually needed. When I joined the ranks of the Subaru crowd in Boulder, I knew that I could start going back to my beloved Hoshi. I find their prices to be very reasonable, and actually much less than my last place in many cases. They always do the work quickly, and call to give me updates on what they've found and what really needs done versus what can wait. Also, they have a car that will give you a ride where you need to go and pick you up when your car is done. I can't say enough good things about this place, and how uncommon is that when it comes to mechanics? From here on out, I'm only going to buy cars that can be taken to Hoshi, because there's nowhere else I'd rather go to have my car looked at. read more

I just my 1995 4-runner fixed up. Great price and work but the best part was the personal attention Brandon, the owner, and Brown gave me. I was on a time crunch to have to go outta town and they did everything they said they would. And on top of it all, the wheel alignment checked out as good and they actually took $70 off my final bill when I arrived. I would absolutely recommend this shop to anyone. Better price and service than Boulder Toyota. I will always be bringing my vehicles here from now on. Thx guys! read more

I had a an issue with my Honda Odyssey. We are only in town for a few months and do not know a lot of local vendors but after reading the Yelp reviews on Hoshi I took the car in to them. It turned out I needed an entirely new transmission. Given the mileage and some other factors I decided not to get the work done. But when I picked up the car Hoshi refused to let me pay for the analysis and the time on the phone reviewing options. I will be back to Hoshi Motors when needs arise. The things other people say about this company are true. I would recommend their services to any one. read more

First time here. Needed some routine maintenance done on my Toyota truck. They were very friendly, professional, did the work professionally and charged me a fair price for the work. You can't ask for more from an auto repair place. I recommend them fully. read more

It's always so wonderful to find an auto shop like this that is both friendly and honest! I have an old Honda I'm trying to get as many years out of as I can. Hoshi Motors has helped me on numerous occasions to fix my car without putting me in a financial hole. They don't try to sell you things you don't need but rather work with you and what your car actually requires, often finding creative and affordable solutions. All around, I'm very pleased with all of my experiences here! read more

Amazing! Honest, compassionate, straighforward, friendly. They even gave me a ride home while they were fixing my car. Repaired work that another car place screwed up. read more
