Friendly, honest service. They explained everything clearly, fixed my car quickly, and didn't try to upsell unnecessary work. Highly recommend. read more

These guys are great. Local auto shop where I take all my vehicles for anything I need. Highly recommend.

My car had a minor oil leak. I called to inquire about a repair and they fit me in the next day to assess the leak. They brought me out to visually see the leak myself and had the part replaced that day! Highly recommend Yire Automotive Care for transparent work and fair pricing. read more

Best service ever received at an auto shop. Above and beyond service! Cannot say enough about Yire. A++++

I have had the misfortune of having to bring my car in for servicing 2 times in one week. Fortunately for me I have been bring my car to Yire for quite a few years. the work is always done well and with speedy service. Both cases this week were in and done in a day. Of course, car repairs are always an unexpected expense so it helps to know that you can trust they are doing a good job. Thank you Yire, I will be returning but not too soon, I hope. read more

Yire did a excellent job fixing my problem in no time at all and at a fair price. I highly recommend.

Thank you! Thank you! I needed a fix and it happened fast, best group of people to deal with especially as a woman of color

My son took his Mazda to Yire and had a wire replaced when a rodent had chewed through it. When I needed service on my Audi and my regular place couldn't fit me I brought it to Yire. It ended up being a pretty expensive repair and it was completed in a few days. When I got the car back the engine light came back on a couple days later and I brought it back. Walter completed another 2 days of service on car, checking everything and replacing parts at no additional charge. The car has been working great since with no problems. Walter was straight forward and easy to work with. I will return with my vehicles in the future. read more

I came down here because of the reviews and the staff was very friendly, helpful, and thorough. I will definitely be making the drive down again when I have any car troubles! read more

Loved that they weren't too busy. My fiat 500 wouldn't start all of a sudden, and I called that same day, and got my car in that day as well. Every other place around was booked weeks out. I was really surprised how well they kept me updated. Great communication, great service. They called to tell me what they need to do, what the possible problems can be, and how much and how long it would take. They got it done that same day. Super nice guys, and lovely front desk person. They replaced my timing belt and something else. Good value. The same price I thought it was gonna be. As a women, they didn't make me feel inferior, and seemed trustworthy. read more

Prefacing this review in an entirely different direction and this is for a good reason. Last month, we had to take our mini cooper to a dealership located in Fife. It was the most stressful, absolutely awful experience that my husband and I have ever had. After 3 weeks of trying to get our car fixed, finally we got it back. That review will be coming and it's a doozy. Fast forward to the our current status. Last week, we had to take our Dodge Ram 1500 for repairs. After the last experience of a car repair we were so leery on where to take this. So I went on yelp and was hopeful that we could find a good repair shop. I saw Yire Automotive had reviews, not many, but that they 5 stars on every rating except for one. Hmmm..I'm thinking, that's just too good to be true. I looked at their site, I once again read the reviews, then I called them. The person who answered, Walter, was welcoming, listened to what I needed and said sure bring it in today. Well my husband had the truck, but I made an appointment for the next day. To put this all in a nutshell, the truck went in, Walter was just as friendly as he is in person as he was on the phone. There is no fancy office in place, but it's decent and Walter has all kinds of info on the wall about his certificates and what's in place. I asked him to call my husband because I don't understand crap when it comes to auto repairs. He was in constant contact with my husband, not only looked at what the issue was but recommended a few other things, sent pictures about this, that were important indeed, that should be repaired but he left this up to us. He didn't push, he didn't come on strong, he simply recommended. Suffice it to say, our truck was ready in two days. It is running beautifully. I have another repair that he will be handling, hopefully soon (well as soon as I call him) and I am sure that he and his people will take care of us again, just as well. It's extremely reassuring to have a place where you can take your vehicle and know that you will not get ripped off and where you will get good service. Now the reason I prefaced this review is to show how one place can be really bad for repairs and another isn't. Period. Anyways, give this place a shot, he's been in business a long time and there's a good reason why. read more

Yire took excellent care of a brake issue in our 2010 Ford Edge in January, and all is still good. They went to great lengths to see if the repair could possibly be under a previous recall -even though that meant that they would not be able to do the repair (we would have had to take the car to a dealership). Our VIN number was not in the recall window, so Yire did the work. Despite the snow, and consequent delays for parts arrival, they met all the time targets they gave us and kept us informed along the way. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and altogether a great team to work with. We can recommend them highly. read more

I have been going to Yire Automotive Care since 2017 for all car repair needs that I can't handle myself & I feel very fortunate to have found them. They are honest, reliable, & very reasonably priced. They are also very friendly and very responsive. I have called to get their thoughts about concerning sounds or changes with my car, and they've always taken time to walk me through what they think and have offered easy fixes I can do myself or told me to bring it in. They work quick and have always completed the job within the timeframe & cost they quoted me. I recommend them to anyone looking for a solid mechanic and will continue going to them for my business going forward. read more

The shop owner was able to get my vehicle in very quickly and had the repair done the same day! I would recommend using this shop with confidence! read more

The trouble light came on my dash.I took my car in and a half hour later I got a call saying it was the gas cap.He reset it and no charge.What a gem! i will take all my car problems to them. read more

Bait and switch - Called to get pricing on an oil change, cabin air filter, engine air filter, and tire rotation. Walter asked the year and make of my vehicle and how many miles, which I provided. I even gave him the type of oil my vehicle takes. He quoted me $120 for the oil change, $30 for the filters and $45 for the tire rotation. We set a date and when I arrived, he quickly asked for my keys. I asked for a written estimate and when he came back, all of the pricing had changed. I reminded him of our conversation and even though he admitted he was wrong, he would not honor what he quoted. The new quote was over $300 and he was unwilling to do what was right. Imagine if I had not requested it in writing.......Sorry, I can't trust a business who doesn't honor their word! read more

Our van was broken into one day and then stolen the next and Yire was so fast, helpful, efficient, and not only fixed what we asked - but did a few additional maintenance items while the car was there. We definitely recommend this place for honest, hard working auto mechanics. We are so glad we found them! read more

My new (to me) 2010 Lexus RX350 smelled like oil was burning. On Monday I turned to Yelp to find a repair shop, in hopes of finding a place to fix it and one we will be able to use for future repairs. Yire Automotive Care had 5 star reviews and the testimonials were very encouraging. I phoned asking them if they work on Lexus. I spoke with Walter, the shop owner. The first question he asked was "what's going on with it?" and off the top of his head said there are a couple of things that are common with this type of make and model to check out. He checked the schedule; we were able to get it in Wednesday morning. He called by midday on Wed to say it was not a leaking valve cover, as he suspected, but a leaking transfer case seal. We had also asked him to verify if the oil pressure hose had been changed out and knew we would need it replaced if it hadn't already been done, and sure enough, it hadn't. And we also knew that was an expensive part and difficult to remove and replace (we'd seen several YouTube videos on it.) He told us the price over the phone. Walter said he could order the part, and if it got there in the morning, he could get it done. We agreed, and at end of the day Thursday he called to say the car was done. He said we could get it then or in the morning. We picked it up this morning, and Walter showed us the parts that were removed. We are confident the car was repaired correctly, and they guarantee their work. I am VERY pleased with the way the shop is run, and scheduling went according to plan. read more

I am still coming to Yire Automotive for all car issues. They are still top notch and careful and trustworthy at a reasonable price. All of them are great. read more

awsome customer service they are fast and good at what they do ive been going there for years .

This company has given me so much satisfaction on my Subaru. They were able to find a salvage door that matched my car, and have repaired many other things. They are always so kind to me, and trustworthy in their service. I am impressed with all of them, and recommend them without reservations to anyone. I am 84 years old, and could not ask for better help. Written by Eulia S. read more

These guys are great. I brought them my 1988 Mitsubishi Montero with a custom engine rebuild - which some garages won't even look at - and they didn't think twice about it. They fixed some electrical problems and tuned up my transmission, with a surprisingly fast turnaround and super reasonable prices. I will definitely visit them again. read more

Nothing but professionalism from Yire Automotive care! My car had a check engine light on and a problem with the blower. They quoted me a price and fixed the problems for less than the quote. Would highly recommend this business! read more

This is a great business, as a woman my girlfriendis treated like at easy mark by many auto repair places in this area. Not here, Walter is as always a great person who cares about his customers and employees in this family run business. I would give them 200 stars if I could! read more

A great place to take your vehicle. Great service from Walter, the owner. I was introduced to this place by a neighbor and I will be continuing to use Yire when I need. Very fair and honest and very, very reasonable prices. The whole process of taking my car in, getting the service needed and payment was great. Thanks Walter! read more

I recently had my car repaired at Yire Automotive, I was impressed from the start with how well Walter runs this business. After I was referred to Yire from a buddy of mine I called after hours and left a message expressing interest in bringing my Toyota in to be serviced and I stated that the car was running very rough at idle and also that when I had the timing belt replaced at the dealership they told me I needed to replace the thermostat. The next day at 9am Walter called me and urged me to bring the car in. I brought the car in that afternoon. The next morning Walter called me and said that he could not find anything wrong with my car other than the thermostat but he said I should come by and drive it with him to show him what I described. So I came in and together we drove around town for 15 minutes until I was able to point out what the car was doing. Before we even got back to the shop he pointed out what he thought needed to be fixed. I was very impressed with Walter's automotive knowledge and especially at the level of customer service I recieved, I have had good and bad experiences at well over 20 different automotive shops from Seattle to Tacoma and this is hands down the best experience I have ever had at any of them. To top it off I ended up paying nearly $150 less than what Renton Toyota had quoted me and they were only going to replace the thermostat. Walter has definitely earned my business. read more

I've been impressed with the integrity and consistency of service I get every time I visit Yire, whether it be for a minor repair or major one. They are direct, honest, timely with when they tell you your vehicle will be ready, and have never overcharged me a dime beyond their quoted price for repairs. They've also saved me money by confirming that repairs Burien Chevrolet told me my vehicle needed, were not actually needed. Obviously I was smart enough to get a second opinion, thankfully! Now I can avoid being swindled by Burien Chevrolet's service department - which they've tried on me EVERY time I've gone there. Having selected Yire as my regular mechanic after they've worked on 3 different vehicles for me, I feel completely confident that I'm getting a quality service at a very competitive price, and the people there are competent and take pride in their work. read more

Ive never had a major problem with my car to the point where I needed to go to a mechanic. Its intimidating for me because of the possibility of being taken advantage of. I was recommended here by a coworker. He told me to ask for Walter, the owner. I am very happy and satisfied! My VW Jetta needed a new clutch baaaad! I called around to multiple places for quotes and they were astronomical. I called Yire and got a great quote for the job, Walter told me to come in and I dropped my car off. The next day it was ready. Very friendly and honestly. I will be returning!! read more

Up front, quick and charged less than what was quoted. Went there based on a referral and it was spot on. The dude even helped me try to figure out their wifi while I waited. read more

I called on Friday, 6-18-21 to schedule service on my Toyota Camry. I asked if I could bring it in on Thursday, 6-24-21 first thing in the morning. The gentleman who I spoke with said yes and that if I brought it in before they opened that I could drop my keys in the lock box. I told him that I needed the car no later than 12:00 noon. He said that the job (replace the starter) would only take 2 hours and that it would be ready by 12:00 noon. I brought it in and dropped it off at 8:15 am. I took the bus downtown to my job interview and then came back at 12:20 pm to pick up my car. They hadn't even started on it! No apology from the person in charge. Nothing. A phone call would have been nice. I scheduled a week in advance and they assured me it would be done by noon. I am reliant on King County Metro if I don't have my car and cannot make my appointments in a timely manner with it. I'm wondering if I should give them another try? I chose Yire because of the Yelp reviews. Ken K. read more

I will never take my car anywhere else. This a very honest shop and doesn't try to take you for all you got. Thanks Walter :)

Same as previous reviewer. Walter is a great guy - prompt and honest and very reasonably priced. What more can you ask for in a car repair place? read more

This is an excellent repair shop! You could not go wrong taking your vehicle to Yire. I know, I have been using Yire for repair of my two diesel Jeep Liberties for the last two years. Most recently yire performed a 100,000 mile service replacement of a timing belt and water pump (a major and expensive required service). Walter, the owner went over every replacement part with me after going to great effort to obtain all parts from Chrysler. He was incredibly thorough and organized in this project. Price was very reasonable (I had obtained bids for this job from two Chrysler dealerships) and the job was done on time, Honesty, integrity, friendliness, are all five star. We wish Walter and his crew the best and highly recommend! ...Ron read more

Mike A. I was having a hard time with my 2001 Ranger pickup, I had the heads rebuilt and when I went to reassemble and start the truck it wouldn't start. I was using a Chilton Manuel for a little help,we'll come to find out the diagram of the spark plug wires on the coil was wrong and it backfiring making all kinds of noise. After 3 weeks of banging my head against the wall I had it towed to Horizon Ford in Tukwila they told it had jumped timing , they didn't see that the plug wires were wrong on coil . So I had it towed home and swapped out the timing gears and chain reassembled again still no start. To make a long story short I had it towed to YIRE AUTOMOTIVE they gave me back a running driving truck again and told me about the plug wires were wrong on the coil pack. It was just that simple. I will go back there again for service .I think I'm going to burn that Chilton manuel. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE GREAT WORK. read more

None better! I have been to many, many others and none compare to Walter and his team. All so courteous, excellent at diagnostics, pricing, etc... All take very good care of my car and genuinely care. Thank you! (see you next week!) read more
