I believe this is the only safety inspection place left of the Westside so it gets busy at the end of the month. That said, the uncles that work there are friendly, quick and efficient. They're open weekdays only. Cost as of July 1st is $27. Cash only and tips are appreciated. read more

The guy that runs this place is great. He's efficient and very helpful. Sure he's got a different kind of sense of humor but as long as you're not sensitive he'll make you laugh. I highly recommend this safety inspection location to anybody read more

In and out in 10 minutes! Courteous employees at this location. Will go back next year

Pretty biased and not willing to help out. I brought my vehicle in the morning and was informed on what I needed to do to pass. Spent the whole day doing what the guy told me. I went back about an hour before they closed and there was another guy there, and the guy that previously had told me what to do started telling me I had to do a bunch of other stuff to pass which he previously had not told me when the other guy wasn't there. Very inconsistent and rude, all they care about is their money. Mind you I have never been to this place before and they told me that no matter what car I bring to their shop they wouldn't pass me. In conclusion never go to this place it's a waste of your time and money and more better to go other side for safety check where they are nice and work with you. This place should be shut down read more

poor service . poor locatlon . 3 rd world business man was rude short and disrespectful. hard to understand a grown man acting so unprofessional and nasty to their customers. Need another safety check station for competition. Burn three hours to get the sticker and so many cars with expired safety checks read more

Great location on the west side to get your vehicle safety check done. Drive up, hand the gentleman the insurance and registration documents, demonstrate the various systems work and you are done. The gentleman adhered the safety tag, brought me my change and I drove off. I had 2 cars in front of me when I arrived, but I didn't wait long at all. Very efficient and helpful. I recommend Ka'anapali Safety Check for a quick, convenient location on the west side. read more

Came here a few times to get a safety during business hours and no one was around. When I finally did get to talk to an employee guy was asking for a tip before we even began. Place is a joke read more

I used this company to perform a vehicle inspection for registering my CA SUV in HI. They were very friendly, did the job properly , gave great advice, and sent me on my way to get my plates and paperwork at the DMV in Lahaina. I returned after fitting the plates to finish the process and received good customer service again, with a lot of joking between the employees which brightened my day. I would definitely recommend them if you require a vehicle safety inspection. read more

Great place to get a safety check! Friendly, efficient and no long wait! They are professional and courteous!

I don't know about the mechanics but the guy who's running the safety checks is kind of rude. He probably thinks he's funny. Not so sure about his people skills. read more

Fast and convenient! If you live Westside this is the place to get your safety. Bill and Archie are friendly efficient.

Fast, friendly and efficient! Highly recommend this service, been going there for years.

Hi Dan D., owner of Ka'anapali Safety Check (located within the Ka'anapali Auto Service Center), When a merit-based criticism is levied, a business has two response options. Either to accept the criticism with a commitment to do better or to bash the customer/client instead. You chose the latter, which is the easy way out! As to the facts, 1) There is obviously an existing issue and confusion with the name and signage of the business(s). Just read the other reviews, I'm not the only one that didn't distinguish one business for the other. Again, you can't blame the customer for your shortcoming. My apologies to KAS, but the two of you have to get together and get this sign confusion figured out! 2) As for the "mask issue", when your sign reads: "new rules: no mask, no service", it DOESN'T distinguish between the vaccinated and unvaccinated. This is a state and county mandate which applies to all, regardless of their self-proclaimed vaccine status. (Your admission that as a vaccinated individual you don't have to wear a mask, is a blatant admission of your breach of this mandate). You also stated: "the mask rule is there for our own self-preservation than anything else". Hate to tell you this buddy, but as one vaccinated person to another, you got your facts completely backwards! Where in the heck have you been for the last two years of this pandemic.... 3) As for the claim of poor driveway positing of the car which could lead to someone running over your foot while doing the inspection. Again, I have absolutely NO IDEA what are you talking about? For a HI annual inspection, the car is always placed in PARK, with the owner instructed to turn OFF his/her car. If you know of an instance where a turned off car, placed in park, has run you over, please let me know. Would love to hear that story!! In this specific case, your employee wanted to walk to the back of the car from the right side and couldn't do it easily, since it was too close to the curb, so he had to walk around the car from the left side. Here is some flash news: both right and left sides of the car are the SAME length! 4) Finally, as for "let's not forget I was there and heard the whole exchange". No, you were not. You were INSIDE the office with heavily tinted glass frontage, and with the front door completely closed. Only your employee was outside doing the safety inspection. You must have x-ray vision and bat-like ears to have witnessed the whole exchange, not to mention, no mask! Based on this ridiculous experience, I'll be doing my next safety inspection at the facility to the right of the West Maui Shopping Center, only a few blocks away. read more

I needed a Safety Check for my car. KCC was super fast and super easy. No appointment needed. I just pulled up to the shop and Bill was ready to go. The safety check is completed in a covered area so it's nice and cool. $25.00 cash or check. No cc's accepted. Thank you so much Bill for making this so easy and convenient. Thumb's up !!!!!!! read more

I have been using this safety check station for years very fair and honest Dependable cuz he works everyday a safety check it's something we all have to go through but it's fairly painless at Kaanapali safety checks and often a short waiting line five stars and courteous also read more

After getting turned away by West Maui Safety Check because the guy was tired and wanted to leave 30 mins before they closed, I came to Kaanapali Car Care to see if they could help. I showed up after they had finished doing safety checks for the day, and after telling Bill I was from Lanai just trying to get a friends Maui car safety checked he helped me out. I know a few people from Lanai that keep cars on Maui, and I'll be recommending they go here for everything they need done. Mahalo, Bill! read more
