Absolutely fabulous! I can't say enough about the experience I had with Uptown Automotive. From the minute I rolled in to the minute I rolled out, exceptional service and oh so friendly and accommodating. Many mahalos to Lena and Dave for taking the time to hear my concerns and treating my ride with such care! I only wish I knew about this place sooner. A HUI HOU : ) read more

Highly recommend Uptown Automotive. I always feel like car places try to take advantage of you, but I do not feel this way with Uptown Automotive. The prices were great and the work was done quickly, hours before they quoted me. Lena, the woman behind the desk is amazing!! If the owner is reading this, please give her a raise! She was so personable and understanding. I already recommended this place to a friend and will be continuing to do so. read more

In these times it is so great to have some place to go with folks you can trust completely. Professional, personal, competent and caring. You will be happy you went there. Aloha read more

I recently brought my Lexus to Uptown Automotive because it had a serious shock problem, they were great! They let me know that the airbag over the shock on one side was blown, upon completing the installation of new airbags, the sensors also needed troubleshooting, they figured it out promptly and I have my car back, running great! 1.) This company has a seriously sweet gal that runs the front, she communicates great and is very nice to deal with. She sets the stage for the great service that is to come. 2.) They know what they are doing and Dave the mechanic is very communicative also, explaining what work has been done clearly. 3.) They are fair with their pricing. I would 100% recommend Uptown Automotive and will be using them in the future. read more

My AC was not working properly. I called them and they got me in that day. They had it taken care of within a couple hours and at a decent price. My ac is now cold as ice. Highly recommended. read more

Uptown Automotive is the best! Our car had a leaking water pump, pulsing front brakes, grabbing rear brakes and a smelly oil leak. Ken took care of all of those problems in one day. His knowledge and experience will keep our Maui cruiser on the road safely for a long time. We appreciate outstanding service with no surprises. read more

Nothing but problems with my 86 El Camino until I brought my baby to Uptown Automotive. Dave, the mechanic explained my immediate problems, fixed them then made recommendations on how to make my El Camino run better. I will not take my vehicle to anyone else. Also met another El Camino owner having his car serviced there. Mahalo for being a professional with aloha for us antique car owners read more

Update: I had to make an appointment b/c my truck engine light was on, & it had no power. And the only available time was next week. Ken who I spoke too, I felt that he did not want to deal with me. It would have been 3 rd time to return to his shop within a 6 months period. Not good. I decided to take my business somewhere else & not deal w/ a passive and non proactive mechanic (Ken). Also never had a follow up about the appointment. I decided to go to Mike's automotive. read more

Very clean shop. Honest work. Friendly service. They have been good at troubleshooting the problems with my cars.

After 10 years as a part-timer and 2 years now as a full-timer on Maui I was in constant search of good auto service facility. After several misses, I am excited that I have found Uptown Automotive in Wailuku. They offer honest, knowledgeable, fair priced, and prompt service and repairs for both my domestic and european built cars. read more

Good quality work done with lots of communication. Travis and Dave were very knowledgeable and able to discuss with me what could be wrong with my truck. This help prepare me for when I got the final total, which I felt was reasonable. Lena was very nice Too! I'm so happy I went with Uptown Automotive! read more

We have been customers of uptown for a decade due to their quality ,professionalism, and being honest. We have 5 vehicles maintained through them. They always work fast and and they have integrity. Linda I'm so sorry they couldn't change the laws to suit you and your mainland mentality. Uptown is no ka oi! read more

Where to begin. I called Uptown with an unusual issue. We were on Oahu, and our truck was in Maui, and wouldn't start. Uptown had it towed out of the airport, paid the fees, and then took the truck and fixed it and stored it!!! This from a man i never met face to face. THEN, he accommodated us while we tried to sell the truck. This is above and beyond the normal. Just a wonderfully fair and decent team to deal with at this repair shop. I can't speak highly enough of the ALOHA and consideration afforded. )) read more

My truck has never run as well as it does now. Dave and his crew do exceptional work, every time! I would highly recommend that you give these guys a call if your vehicle needs servicing. Thank you guys! read more

Very good customer service, they fixed my car in one day and for a very good price. would 200% recommend if you need any car repairs

Dave, Ken & Travis are just good, upstanding mechanics (which is not always the case among mechanic shops!) I was a single mom, "damsel in distress" a few weeks ago. Stopped for a cup of coffee in Wailuku & suddenly my beloved Jeep wouldn't start. Despite two good Samaritans who tried to jump start & fiddle with the starter, my jeep wouldn't go. Had it towed to Uptown which was the closest garage to my location - Thank Goodness! Dave worked on my jeep right away & with Travis' help, identified that the ignition initiator in the ignition cylinder had cracked in half. He took the time to locate a ignition cylinder kit on-island instead of doing the easier but much more costly whole steering column. He had me back on the road in time to pick up my child from school. Despite living Kihei, I will make the time to have my jeep serviced at Uptown. Really good guys there at Uptown Automotive!! read more

Great place to take your car! Always gets the job done correctly. I'm very pleased with the service given to me and was impressed at the turn around time, The shop is overall clean and has a positive vibe to it. They even took the time to call me on the phone gave me the cost for everything and explained to me what they had done. 10/10 Would go again read more

Our go to mechanic when ever our cars break down good prices and leaves out cars better then new. Highly recommend

Brought my car in for an exhaust repair. When Ken called me to pick it up, he said it wasn't running well and implied that it must have always been running badly (he hadn't test driven it before the repair). So he did an additional $1000 worth of work replacing various parts (MAF sensor, Idle Air Control, etc., etc.) that didn't fix it and gave it back to me running so badly it stalled at every stop sign and red light. He basically gave up trying to repair it. I Googled the symptoms, diagnosed the actual problem, and sent it back to them for one last specific $250 repair which made it run properly. I shouldn't have to diagnose my car for my mechanic, that's his job. Update 2/8/2016: After less than a year, the exhaust is leaking again. I took the car to a different mechanic who says that they reused the old gasket when they replaced the exhaust header. I paid around $2000 for the exhaust repair, and they couldn't put in a new $70 gasket? I'm going to look for the bill and see if they charged me for a gasket. I trusted these guys! I will never bring a vehicle to them again! read more

I recently moved to the island and purchased a Maui cruiser that needed a lot of fixing up. Dave was so helpful and knowledgeable about repairing my car. He was able to repair everything I needed and was kind enough to look over some other things that would need to eventually be fixed in the future so I can keep an eye on it (with out me even asking him to!) I am so happy I found a trustworthy auto repair place and the cost was not nearly as much as I was expecting! Thank you Dave and everyone at Uptown Automotive! read more

This is a really good spot to take your car. They always do a good job and are quick too. I love how they dont mess with the radio and a/c!!! read more

Uptown Automotive provides their customers with professional, reliable, and trusted service. We've been bringing our vehicles there for years and will continue to do so. The staff is polite and respectful and do everything possible to schedule your car ASAP. The repairs are done timely and within your budget. Thank you, Dave, for being there when we need you. Everyone needs a trusted mechanic! read more

Took my car in to these guys to get some electrical work done. The people there were helpful and got the work done in a day. The only problem I had was when I picked my car up from them the inside of the car smelled like cigarettes. I don't smoke so the smell was off-putting, I had my windows down the whole way home to air the car out and even bought an air freshener. read more

We own a 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac which has been a great truck but is now showing signs of wear-n-tear. We have always taken the Sport Trac to our local Ford dealer when it came to annual servicing and minor repairs. We have never left the dealer with a bill that was less than $150, so, when we started to notice that the air conditioner was not blowing out cold air, I decided to ask a friend if he had any recommendations, knowing that I did not want to take it to the Ford dealer because of their "pricing structure"! This friend recommended Uptown Automotive. We decided to have Uptown do a check on the air conditioner with an estimate of what it would cost to have it repaired. They did find a leak and gave us what sounded to be a very honest assessment of what was needed and how much it would cost. We felt that the price was very fair and very affordable so we decided to have Uptown Automotive complete the job. Since then, August 1, 2013, the air conditioner has been great. We are a 2-car family so I am looking to have Uptown Automotive take over the servicing of both cars. They are friendly, fair and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you, Uptown Automotive. read more

I just wanted to take the time and post this very positive review in regards to an associate of your company, her name is Lena. I live on Lanai and was looking for a mobil mechanic to work on my Land Cruiser, so I called, and the person that took my call was Lena. She was very busy at the time I called, so she had put me on hold, and for some reason I got cut off, and before I could call back she was already calling me back. She was very professional and very efficient! Lena got a couple of Mobil mechanics for me that she recommended. I was just so blown away with the way she took the time to help me. This is a great example of going above and beyond for a customer. Remember.....a customer doesn't necessarily mean someone that has to do business with you, but anyone that calls and inquire about your business is considered a customer. Lena, has a great understanding of that. She made my day that day! I won't forget what she has done for me. With my memorable experience, I will recommend anyone to Uptown Automotive LLC. I have not met Lena in person, but that is not necessary because of the way how she treated me over on the phone, and the way she presented her self as a professional, is probably the way Uptown Automotive LLC does business. You have a very valuable associates in Lena. Please take good care of her. read more
