Were able to find the issue and save my repair costs. I have a GWagon and car has hundreds of codes and they were able to help me with the repairs. read more

One of the only places I take my vehicles! I do most of the work on my vehicles myself however sometimes the job is a little too much for me to do myself. Whether they do the work or not they offer great advice on what your next step to solve your problem should be. Also have been coming here for the past couple years for safety check. Fast appointment setting and quick in and out when you get there. read more

Being a woman, when getting your car checked out at any mechanic shop you have to be skeptical as to if someone is taking advantage of you. At RNS you don't have to worry about that. I took my 95' Lexus ES300 in to this shop just based off the reviews here with just a general idea of what could possibly be wrong, and Ron worked with my schedule to find a day to leave it overnight to check the car out first thing in the morning. In the end, RNS had to refer me to a transmission specialist and had just about the same idea of what was wrong, but charged nothing for looking at the car. They checked my fluids and oil free of charge and took the time to give me options of what the problem could be. For any future problems I'll be returning here. They're an honest, good hearted mechanic shop who are truly here to help you. Thanks Ron! read more

Best auto service ever. Would give 10 stars. I'll definitely be back owner is super helpful and they got the work done real fast

I needed my bearings replaced in my Tacoma, RNS was 70% cheaper than the dealership quote!! Ron runs a ver honest business and I would absolutely recommend RNS. Thank you! read more

Looking forward to being a regular customer!

Took my car to RNS for a grinding noise on the passenger frontside of the vehicle thinking front end suspension work told that to the front desk planner. The professional techs trouble shot my car and that same day called me to say that my body mounts were disintegrated. they ordered the parts replaced the body mounts. Car's quiet and solid again. AWESOME WORK! Thanks RNS, Larry read more

Great staff and customer service. Called in the morning and had a great experience! Usually dread going to the mechanics ... Thank you, I will for sure go to them again! read more

RNS replaced my u joints on my truck within a day for a reasonable price. I will definitely come back again.

RNS Auto, well managed & honest repair shop you are going to find. Ron is a super guy, always takes care of everyone. Mahalo!! read more

Awesome! People like Ron, his crew, and biz like RNS make Kailua great IMHO. Called in for a brakes inspection on a smart car, got serviced same day (guys happened to have a slot on July 3rd :)), drove off with the brakes feeling like new. All that within couple hours. Very friendly and very well priced shop. Might've found my new mechanic, yey! Keep up the awesome work! Thank you again so much. read more

I like em these guys do it better than Firestone because Firestone is a complete RIP off and full of bologna.

These gentlemen are amazing! Whatever words I write are so insufficient to accurately portray the exemplary service, professionalism, and overall aloha that Ron and every member of his staff personify on a daily basis. I've taken my car here several times now and each time has been truly exceptional. They do several things that most car repair businesses don't: 1) your invoice breaks down each operation by listing chronologically what was performed and by who. 2) they don't waste your time ... when they work on your car, they totally devote themselves to your car. 3) they never overcommit and they always deliver ahead of schedule. 4) they tell you the honest truth behind parts and processes and bring you into the decision. In fact, I get the impression that these amazing professionals are a close knit "band of brothers" who've been working together for years and have developed such close bonds that they know and maximize each staff members strengths towards delivering to you a most perfect product--your vehicle returned in the most perfect mechanical shape possible. They only use quality parts, and the list goes on.... oh yes... they actually support the military (and that's amazing especially in these current Dark Ages when it's presently chic and trendy to disrespect our military, our flag, and our country). In summary... RNS is what the neighborhood American auto repair business used to be! read more

I usually don't write reviews, but I have to for this one. Great experience all around. Went in for my safety check, and the guys caught a couple other minor things that needed to be fixed up. They took care of it right then and there with no extra labor charge, just the price for parts. I felt very taken care of. I'll def be going back. read more

Great service via yelp app, I messaged a bunch of repair places to have them look at the brakes on my Tacoma. RNS was quick to reply and Ron was very helpful and transparent about everything. They accommodated my schedule and got me in for the appointment very quickly. All around great service and the brakes are working like new. read more

RNS is an honest auto mechanic that will only do the work that is needed. They are good about explaining what needs to be done and why. They even look for ways to save customers money and explain that. For example, I needed a new door lock. They explained that they could either install a new lock or rekey the old one to save me $100. This is illustrative of the approach they take towards customer service. They do what they say they will do. This is an honest mechanic that I would (and have) readily recommend. read more

Ive had the pleasure of watching RNS explode with business over the past few years and for good reason bc Ron and his team are epic! I recently took my car to two separate mechanics and they told me two separate things resulting in over $2000 worth of work. Good thing I thought about Ron last minute! He stopped what he was doing walked over and assessed my car on the spot for free. He told me and showed me exactly what the problem was. It was very minor and didn't need any work if I didn't want it. Instead of screwing me and my wallet, Ron was completely honest and just helped me out like a good human should. Everyone should go here! Thanks RNS!! read more

HONEST shop, Affordable, Knowledgeable, Quick, Good communication. Tenns charged me $125 had my car a week didn't really look at it yet only ran a diagnostic, RNS said it was computer related I needed to go to a dealer charged me ZERO. I've had other good experiences here as well. Only place I recommend going. read more

I started taking my vehicles to RNS when they were in Mapunapuna. Been fortunate enough to have not needed a lot of work, but these guys took care of me every time I did. The quarry location is a bit inconvenient and the parking is a challenge, but they work around it. They've been spot-on with diagnosing and repairing all of my malfunctions and the cost is most reasonable. If you can't fix it yourself, this is a great place to start. read more

This is the bet mechanic shop on Oahu. These guys are fast and very very honest. Ron is a quality guy and has always been great to work with. Highly Highly recommend RNS if you need automotive repairs read more

First and foremost, these guys do solid work. I have a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan I bought from a USPS auction. It had low mileage, but had clearly been sitting for a LONG time and had little to no maintenance. I brought it to RNS and they did a full blown tune-up, and ever since then, the van has been running great! The whole thing cost about $2000, so it wasn't cheap, but, like I said, the car needed a lot of work. The only reason I don't give them 5 stars is their customer service is pretty horrible. The first time I went there, I walked in, stood at the counter, and they ignored me for about 10 minutes. The guy working the front just went about his business without even addressing me until he was damn well good and ready. It was basically just rude. After the work on the minivan, I had another car that I needed a safety check for and some basic work done, so I called several times to try to make an appt, with no answer, and my voicemail was not returned, so I ended up going elsewhere. Bottom line, these guys are good with cars, not so good with people, so I found another shop in Kaneohe I like that is good with both. read more

Do NOT go here for a vehicle inspection of any kind. They will sign you off. Then when you come back after you get an updated registration they will claim they don't have any stickers for you. Bam you just got taken. That's not how the hawaii vehicle inspection works. Don't waste your time and money here! read more

I recently got an oil change at Midas in Kailua. They told me that I needed my rack and pinion replaced to the tune of $1200. Ouch. They even took me out to the bay and pointed to the greasy area under my vehicle. The mechanic had a very somber face and made it seem like the situation was dire. So I checked around and got a very strong recommendation for RNS. A friend said, "The owner is a Christian, and he's very honest." I called Ron, and although it took him a little while to get back to me, the telephone estimate (site unseen) for the rack and pinion job came out around $1000. So I made the appointment and dropped off my vehicle. About an hour after dropping off my vehicle, Ron called me. "There's nothing wrong with your rack and pinion," he said. "Your boot is torn up, but that'll cost you under $100 to repair." He asked me why I thought I needed a rack and pinion job in the first place, so I told him that I had been told this by Midas. He laughed and said, "I'm an honest shop, and I cannot in good faith repair something that ISN'T BROKEN." Thank you, Ron. You run an honest shop, and I'm telling the island about your good work. read more

Best Auto Repair Shop for automobile service in Kailua. They offer Car Brakes Shocks, Engine Repair in Kailua, Hawaii. They also offer safety checks, tune ups, maintenance, used vehicle inspection read more

Very disappointed, I took my Nissan Frontier in here to get one sensor replaced. I had already bought the sensor and told them exactly what to do. I tried to replace it myself but I couldn't remove the connector, all they had to do was remove one bolt and replace the sensor, very simple job that could be done in under 30 minutes by anyone, especially a professional mechanic. They charged me $118....for removing one bolt. That's ridicules. They get good business cause I had to make an appointment a week in advance so please tell me why they insist on taking a run for my money, I will never go back I tell you that much. God forbid I needed something more done (like 2 bolts), do not go here they will take advantage of you. I will be sure to spread the word to all Marines on base about this place. Just as bad as Firestone. read more

2008 jeep wrangler was having trouble starting, took it to RNS and now starts and runs great

Awesome!!! Got my brakes done, crew is awesome as well! I highly recommend this business! Fast, friendly. Affordable!

Brought my car to them to change 2 CV boots, check the brakes and a grinding sound. They sounded very knowledgeable and pleasant when I spoke to them on the phone. When I dropped off my car, the guy I met was a little rude and seemed annoyed because I explained to him that my neighbor tried to fix my car but was unsuccessful. They ended up changing the CV boots, fixing the brakes and replacing the driver side axle. Overall they did a great job fixing my car at a reasonable price (I drive an Audi). I would bring my car to them again - they seem honest, trustworthy and priced fairly for Hawaii. read more

The best, nicest crew of auto mechanics you'll find in Kailua. Ron Najarian, the owner, rocks!

Appointments available right away, either same or next day. Quick in and out in 15 minutes or less. Ron and his crew are really friendly. A little hard to find. Basically go as far back as you can and turn right, and there they are! We will definitely bring our vehicles here again and again! read more

This place is awesome. My car wouldn't start this morning and so I had to get towed to Ron's place. Within two or less hours he replaced my battery and starter. He showed me exactly what happened with my starter and battery and explained what he was going to do. He also called around to different places to try and get the cheapest starter for me. He was very patient and willing to let me know what was going on. He even gave me a $40 discount because he knew I was tight on money. I will recommend Ron to anyone who asks for a mechanic on the island. He's a family man and wants to provide the best service possible with the cheapest rates. However, he uses very good quality parts so the job will last! read more

Awesome staff! They were very friendly and helpful. Explained what was going with my vehicle and how that specific part works, definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a trustworthy and time efficient mechanic. read more

I went here for the first time yesterday and was very happy. For one, they were friendly which is often not the case when it comes to auto repair. But more importantly, they got the job done quickly and inexpensively. I paid approx. $1000 to fix the AC on my old truck - the dealer quoted me $5000! I'll be back. read more

Horrible customer service, never answered the phone, had to go in person to make appointment and then when i went they were rude. They took less than 5 minutes to do the safety to say it failed for my tint being at 16% when it's at 35 which is the legal amount to pass. Then proceeded to tell me to take it else where if i didnt want to remove the tint and see who will pass it. read more

RNS rocks! They get you scheduled weeks before other shops, and the last time I went in, I just needed a quick check-over because my service light came on. They did it right away and didn't even charge me a "diagnostic fee" like everywhere else does. I won't go anywhere else on the island! Parking and finding it is a little rough-but trust me, it's worth it. Prices can't be beat, easy and fast scheduling, great service. 5 stars guys. read more

I am a very happy consumer of RNS Automotive. We needed a last minute safety check and they not only took us the same day I called but they were very efficient and professional. I called around Kailua to set an appointment for a safety check and they told us we had to wait 2 WEEKS! Crazy!! Thank you again RNS Automotive! :) read more
