My highest regards and deepest thank you to this shop! I've trusted them with both my car & my partner's, from routine oil changes to other repairs like diagnosing + replacing my PCV valve that was causing some serious issues. They're always honest, reasonably priced, and do amazing work. A special thank you to Tori for always being so kind and helpful. It's hard to find a shop you can truly trust, and they've definitely earned my business. I highly recommend Tom's B & M Auto to anyone who needs quality, reliable help with their car. read more

We took our Mercedes to Tom's for some diagnostics and replacement of the rear brakes. The work was done quickly, efficiently, and at half the price of the dealership! Great communication and really nice people. read more

Tom is honest and charges fair prices and does great work. He has done great work on my Mustang GT. I have kept coming back to him for upgrade to my GT. He fixed the Air conditioning a couple of years ago, and it's stayed fixed. Unlike others who only replace the bad part in the air conditioning and then buy the end of the summer it needs fixing again. When they go bad they often get "glitter" inside and it wrecks other parts. He did it right, and charged me less than some that only replace part of it. I had him upgrade my suspension, brakes and put in a new clutch. Love his work. read more

I have always found Tom, Steve & Jane to be incredibly friendly and engaging. They fix your vehicle without over analyzing the situation. The talk with you and really get a good understanding of the situation before the vehicle hits the shop floor. Quality and Cost are better then any other Professionals I've use before. I feel blessed to have them in the event anything goes wrong. Love them all - Pat read more

Husband has been working on his F-150 for a week. There was a problem with his brake lights/ blinkers. Replaced all the bulbs. Fuses, wiring harness, all the usual suspects. We finally asked for a referral on one of my Facebook groups and he was suggested. Dropped it off Tuesday night and it was fixed Wednesday afternoon! He was able to find a bad wire coming out of the fuse box. He was awesome! I will be taking me second vehicle in soon to have that one fixed up. Highly knowledgeable and highly recommended! read more

I've had struts changed, hub changed, bearings changed, splash guard changed, and a few things they just did because they had a few minutes, is it good folks down there I was referred to them from a client I worked on for a few years it was a teacher in the area and her and her late husband utilized these guys (it's a family-run business) client and her new husband utilize these folks still I have not been disappointed read more

Very disorganize. Didn't fix the problem but yet cost over the original quote. Don't get scam here

Trust these guys 100% and will never go anywhere else! Tom fixed some troublesome issues with my car by replacing parts with only highest quality original parts after running diagnostic testing. I feel safer and so much more confident driving my car now. read more

Tom, Jane, Steve, and Dan @ B & M all work together to make a very competitive buisness and do it well. The service I've had done over the last 8 years has been great to me, my car, and my budget. They change my oil for $20 I bring them My filter and mobile 1 oil I get at Costco, and get parts cheap on Amazon & eBay they install saves me huge! They have serviceed my vehicles at least 100times (I drove 200k mi) I've had lots of mods done to my Acura integra like intake exhaust header, new starter new alternator, he maintains and installs when needed or at my request all my belts, pulleys, hoses,thermostats, radiators, breaks, oil changes, trans flush, and anything else that has ever been necessary so I never have a breakdown. He helped me get a new computer and my car dyno tuned and I got 158 horse power now and 138ft lbs torque which is a huge improvement and next will be building a vtec head for more horsepower even turbo if I want 400hp on my 91 integra :) . Out of all the great things they have done they have only misdiagnosed all of my problems 2 times. That gives them a 98% rating w me. Though they didn't eat the cost of those hours they put in guessing (which was fairly expensive $1200) it's great maintainance that probably should've been done anyway , & they do eat the cost of time when a part has had a failure that needs to re-done on warranty repair and it equals out. It's nice to have dealer parts when they are available and affordable but it doesn't happen all the time and they work w me. read more

I took my car in for an oil change, and had a few questions regarding my new brakes and rotors. They confirmed my fears - where I went for brakes and rotors scammed my with price gauging and faulty parts. They helped to repair my brakes and rotors (even though it was not their original job) and I can finally breathe with the assurance that my brakes and rotors will work (just a small ask) and last for more than a few weeks. I appreciate the kindness, thoroughness, and honesty in which this business interacts with customers. Tom's B&M Auto is the place for all vehicle repairs. read more

Total trust with B&M. Tom, Jane and Steve worked diligently in helping us diagnose a battery drain issue in our MB. Found a technical bulletin that could only be performed at Mercedes. Ended up we needed a software update! Thank you, B&M! read more

This place was dishonest and unethical, and treated us poorly. They lied about parts availability (not a good idea when anyone with a smartphone can prove you wrong). They would not allow me into the shop to see the problems they say needed fixed on my car. When I confronted the "owner" at the desk, she told me it is her business and that she will run it the way she wants to. Well, go ahead, run it that way. I will never be back, and anyone who asks me will not either. read more

I'm never really sure if I'm getting a good deal when it comes to auto mechanics. I don't trust any of them. But here's the deal....... if you have friends and relatives always telling you where they take their cars for service and then you look the establishment up on Yelp and you see they have a 5 star rating, then this is a good enough reason to try them. New clutch, replaced some seals on my rear brakes (told me that the pads are fine), and replaced the spark plug wires (after Harris Ford replaced the plugs but not the wires). Sure it cost me 1900.00 and change but I know they stand behind their work and the truck has never run better. Great shop! read more

Across the street from B&M is Seaview Chevrolet. We took our GMC Envoy initially to Seaview because there were some slight surging issues. They charged us $150 to troubleshoot it. When they were done, they told me that the engine had a timing issue related to the cam shaft and that it would cost around $3500 to open it up and repair. However, the mechanic heard some noises and that the engine probably needed to be replaced for $7500. We figured that we would run the car until it died. Soon after that a friend recommended B&M. I took the GMC there without telling them anything about Seaview. After about $600 worth of troubleshooting and work, the GMC is running great with many miles expected to go. B&M are owned and operated by a husband and wife team that live locally. They both know their stuff and are straight forward with the business practices. Yeah...I recommend them highly! read more

Consistent and quality repair. Been going here for years and love their honest and quick service.

I had a terrible experience here. BAIT and SWITCH. I was quoted one price, $150 to fix something on my car. Granted, my car has had this issue for an entire year. I've driven through the states of Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, California last summer with this problem. No check engine light, nothin' (*my car is considerably older though, so with every repair, I consider if it is truly worth fixing the vehicle) Such it is with Tom's B & M Auto, they are not honest. For $150 I thought, hey, I'd get it fixed. The part is ordered, I wait around until later that day: the reception lady (co-owner) calls me. Suddenly, it is $245 with tax. That's almost doubled! She wants to add on a fee for the diagnostic, which she did not tell me! They see the out-of-state license plate and she wants to take advantage! The really infuriating part is the non-sequitur she adds: she says to me, over the phone, "My overhead is a lot." Neither here nor there, lady!! You quoted me one price, you have to keep by it! I mean, they told me the $150 price *so I would get it fixed there* Otherwise, I would have driven it elsewhere - suddenly, when it's fixed, it's $100 more? BAIT and SWITCH tactic. Irregardless that they never explained that I would be charged an extra $100 diagnostic fee, which they should have explained: I call them back to tell them that this is total b.s., I've never been charged a diagnostic fee at my other car repair place - they always wave it if I *get the work done there* Or they charge me something minimal, like $25. Finally, she says (co-owner) that I will not have to pay that. Okay, I'm thinking, finally *progress* Here's the shady part, fasten your seat belt: I momentarily turn my phone off. Then I call back and she says, "Hey, we've been trying to reach you.." I'm like, "Okay, why?" Suddenly, in the span of about 5 or 10 minutes, the car is suddenly unfixable..Yes, that's right. 10 minutes prior, it was ready to be picked up, for the price of $245 + tax. Since, I complained about the $100 upcharge, it suddenly does not require the new part...But, she says, the guy (co-owner, her husband, I guess..) whose name escapes me, has been working on it for about an hour-and-a-half...so I will need to talk to him about how much I should pay. So, basically, it's just all a scam...They will quote you one price, then tack on some extra fees which they did not tell you about. Then they will not do the work at all, but still charge you hundreds "for their time" (Highly shady, because, I was not there..How do I know that he was working an hour and a half on my car, it could have easily been 10 minutes!) When all is said and done, they charge me $108 to "clean a valve" No new part, they said it wasn't necessary. (or, they just passively-agressively just didn't want to do it, lol,lol,lol, when I complained about the unethical upcharge, and that was their way of saying "screw you") Granted, my car still ran, before I took it in. Like I said, I drove across all of those states with that issue.The next day (today), of course I am concerned about it. It ran okay before I took it in despite having this issue. OH, when I first entered the store, the receptionist (co-owner) was on the phone paying a bill. I left and said I would come back momentarily, since she was reading off her debit card number to pay said bill. Like, she needs money for her bill so she needs to upcharge me? read more

Excellent service, good work, and at a fair price. Only one minor exception below. A couple months ago the air conditioner on our Honda stopped working. We got one of those refill bottles to see if it just maybe needed to be charged again but when we hooked up the bottle we heard hissing out the front of the car so we knew there was something dreadfully wrong. I first took it to another mechanic to take a look at it. I also had noticed that the brakes squeeled a little so I also asked this other mechanic to check the brakes. The other mechanic came back with a price for the air conditioner parts (condenser) and said I needed a brake job too. Just to check the quote I called a couple other places, and one of them was Tom's B&M. Their quote for the air conditioning work was about $80 cheaper than the other shop, and their break job was going to be cheaper too. Given the reviews on Yelp I felt pretty confident leaving it at Tom's for the repair. A couple hours later I got a call from Tom's saying there was a problem. They said the air conditioning repair went great and it was working, but that when they went to do the brakes that they found the brakes and rotors in perfect condition with 70% of the pads remaining. They recommended that I don't change the brakes because it would just be a waste of money. I was so grateful for their honesty! It was clear the other shop was just trying to get some extra money out of me. That right there made me feel better about them. The work was done, and it worked, and I didn't spend more than I needed to. The car was done when they said it would be. My ONLY small complaint was just that there was some grease on the inside of the car when they were done. It's probably when the mechanic got in to test the A/C or brakes (when they put it back together) he got a little grease on the steering wheel and the door handle too. It's a minor thing, and not enough to make me stop going there. But it did mean I needed to clean up a little after them. Well worth it for an honest mechanic and a fair price, but if something had been stained I might be more bummed out. Overall, I'm very happy. And taking my second car to them for a timing belt change and major service in a few weeks. read more

Not impressed at all. I was referred to them by someone whom I respect immensely. The vehicle was brought in with a specific malady. Within a day or so I was informed that the motor was beyond repair. I had asked for specific testing and was assured that it would be pointless. We buy a motor and deliver it. Mechanic calls again and states that the engine is actually fine. It's something that correlated to why I brought it in initially. 3 weeks later, I paid for a car to sit and not have engine codes checked, warning lights not addressed, no car wash, no vacuuming out the interior. The fuel leaks weren't looked at, the oil leaks were ignored. Maybe this shop is good for replacement of like for like. You know, bad brakes or doing an oil change. I suggest using a specialist when you need to fix things. Come here for the oil change. read more

On my epic road trip from Utah to Seattle something popped in the engine to my Mazda MX-3. From Oregon onward my oil was completely empty every 30 miles. It was pretty devastating, but when I brought it into Tom's they were very helpful and printed out a list of places that had spare engines, including prices. They had my car up and running in a few days and so far it's running great! Good stuff. read more

Tom Ives has been our cars' best friend for years. We drive old cars and Tom takes great care of them and is always honest. I have sent many friends there who have equally great things to say and who have also become loyal customers. Tom's wife Jane runs the office with great efficiency and friendliness and always goes out of her way to fit us in if we have an emergency. Put the care of your car in their hands - B & M Automotive has fair prices and will never do expensive unnecessary work. Thanks for all the years of great work Tom and Company. read more

Worst mechanic service ever. I took my car in to get the master cylinder replaced. I knew for a fact that needed to be done. It started with a dispute as to the time to fix the master cylinder. Insurance (extended warranty ) said less than what mechanic said. So I would have to pay $100 over my copay. I was told I would have to come in to sign authorization to get the car fixed. They never called me to sign. But they went ahead and fixed the car. I went in to get the car and suprisingly I was only charged 14$ over my copay. I was told the battery was dead and they couldn't start the car had to tow it. That was never a problem. I got in started just fine. Since had battery checked it's fine. BUT since I was given the car back it keeps dying. It won't idle. I went to talk to the mechanic "Tom" and he denied that they did anything to make it die. He was very argumentative and defensive. DO NOT EVER TRUST B AND M AUTO. they are crooks and crappy mechanics. I would never go there again. And that was me trying to trust them. I took my Dodge Ram in and they told me that one wouldn't start and needed a new engine. I just rebooked the battery cables it started fine and the engine is still living. CROOKS!!!! read more

had my only car tow there for some work done, they said it would be completed in less than 3 days, 2 weeks later it was done with $500 over the original written quote, lost my job and couldnt pay the additional cost, they started to impose $150 a day for storage. what a bunch of crooks read more

I would just like to say a Big " Thank You" to the team at B & M Auto. Its not always a good time to have a problem with your wheels. But it was so refreshing that you get great Customer Service. Just like "back in the day".. Jane was most helpful and understanding and truly made me feel like my car a 2006 Charger R/T Hemi was in good hands. They are a fair and honest repair shop. Im very grateful for the repair and the cost was more than fair. Our son also had the shop install a motor in his 72 Chevelle. They are honest and I will tell anyone who needs repairs that this is the most honest and fair shop in the Lynnwood area. Customer Service and a caring attitude is something you hardly ever will find. And this shop and team are 5 stars. They are the best. Sincerely. Kim, A very satisfied customer. Lynnwood, Wa read more

I have taken my vehicles here quite a few times and I have to say that the owner and his wife seem like great people and are helpful and honest. The only suggestion I would have is that you only want the owner, Tom, working on your vehicle. I really don't have any good experiences when the others employees have worked on my vehicles and never feel satisfied. read more

Honest, fast, nice people. the rest of this space is being used because yelp is making me. read more

once again jane and tom were there for me. our business relationship started over 9 years ago first my jeep they dropped an engine in and still to this day runs perfect! now i brought in my mustang and they replaced the head gasket and she is purring like a kitty! what can i say the most honest company i have ever dealt with! friendly and they always warranty their work! no one touches our babies but them! read more

Look no further for a great, honest and kind group of mechanics. This is a husband/wife team. Tom has rebuilt my 63 Nova SS, worked on a couple of our Explorers, put brakes on numerous cars. All of his work is good. I didn't think a good mechanic existed anymore. There are at least 2 guys in the shop that help Tom. Jane (wife) mans the phones, office and the big Great Dane, Max. read more

A good recommendation from Brakes For Less. Two great auto shops next door to each other. Fair prices, no games and friendly staff.

I took my 1995 jeep with 229,000 miles in for a overheating and death wobble issue. They changed the thermostat and tightened the sway bar links and had me back on the road quickly. They did screw me on a 5 quart Mobile 1 oil change, charging $109.00 where the most I ever paid was $65.00. read more

We live almost an hour away (in Kent) yet we take our cars to Tom's for service. They are honest and will not do more work than is needed. I highly recommend them! read more

Tom and Jane are great people! Whom I trust to do the best for us.

Moved to WA from CA, and i know how difficult it is to find a trustworthy mechanic. Let me say i found my spot. Just had my Murano fixed up here - Jane is friendly, professional and just plain awesome. My alternator died as well as my battery - being that it was going to be a pretty intense labor job, I expected a high bill - but it actually cost a bit lower than expected. I also checked with my old mechanic and he said exactly what Jane said about the labor. Good to know. Plus thanks Bruce from R&R towing for the referral. Usually when a tow company refers an auto mechanic you'd expect a scheme but NOT here, just good'ol American business. read more

My friend told me about Tom's a couple years ago, and I wish I knew about them 10 years ago! Very honest, down to earth people, and I dont worry about getting 'fleeced' for auto repairs anymore. I've had some nightmares with other shops in the area, Including Harris Ford, Goodyear, sunny's, etc., but here I feel like part of the family, and I will continue to be loyal to them. I even get my oil changes here, a little more pricey than taking it to the guys on the corner, but Tom's will check all fluids, tire pressure, and even test drive your car afterwards to make sure everythings ok. Jane takes care of the counter and will talk to you in no BS terms about whats going on. They ask for appointments, but thats fine with me for honest, professional car care and advice. Thank you B&M!! read more

This place is amazing. They quote several hundred dollars less than the dealership does. They are very attentive and only charge for what they need (they thought my car needed a new alternator so they ordered it and put it in and turned out it was a different problem and didn't charge me a dime for that). The only downside are their hours of operation. read more

Jane is great! I called in and after explaining the cars problem and giving her the car info so told me my car should still be under the manufacturer warranty and to call the dealer. She then gave me the local dealers phone number and said if it was not covered then bring it in but why pay for it if I didn't have to. That is an honest business person. My car is under warranty but since my other cars not I WILL be bringing it in to be serviced here. Thank you Jane! read more

This place is great! Always friendly, fast, thorough and above all affordable. Wouldn't recommend any other place

My mom has being going here for years, so I took my 93 civic in and a safety check so pretty much asking what is wrong anything horrible. I am going to start off say my car was made in 1993 so its old not everything is going to be perfect, but took it in and they said my car was so bad I need to get rid of it, the brake were about to go they were so bad and much more, so I drove home nearly crying because I thought something was so wrong with the car after just buying it. My dad and brother both know quite a bit about cars so they said ill check it out brakes are fine on my car no leaks and my car is not going to break down anytime soon. I am really mad that I believed them and put so much trust into them with they are over dramatic and dont do such a good job! read more

Do not go here they install parts you don't need and tell you it's something else that's wrong and basically say to bad I'm sorry

I first went to Tom's when I was buying a used car from one of their customers. Not only did they tell me the car was useless and stand up to their regular for trying to sell me dangerous junk, but they hooked me up with a car dealer and haggled with him for me to get an awesome price on a trustworthy used car (this is a year ago). Since then I've been able to count on them (and especially Jane!!) to give me cheap, honest advice and do good work-- even though I would be easy to take advantage of being young, poor and un-knowledgeable about cars. read more

Can't say enough good things about the shop and the mechanic who worked on my car - Dan. I just moved here from the east coast and when I took my car into the brake shop for brakes they discovered my front left control arm was shot and needed to be replaced so they recommended Tom's B & M Auto shop which was right next door. Dan came right over, looked at the car and then quickly went back to his shop and gave me a written quote. I scheduled the repair and dropped off the car the next day. Once Dan got into the job he found that all the rust from the salt used back east had everything badly rusted and frozen in place but he used great mechanical skills and a saw to get it removed and then installed the new arm. He showed me the old arm when I picked up the car and I was amazed that he was able to get it out without damaging any of the joints. Drives great. Dan will be my mechanic for life. If you want high quality work, honest prices and skilled mechanics you should go here. Dave S. read more
