Chris Richards Auto - Arcata (CA)

Brett Watson Chris is a first class mechanic and he always provides outstanding service. Hes also very active in the community which is important to me.

Vince M Old school class! Instantly gave me a cheap quote over the phone and said it would only take 3 days to rebore a 1 cylinder motorcycle. Later I took in the cylinder and he told me that I may be able to get away with just swapping the ring out instead of machining it after he took measurements on it. The moto repair shop in Arcata tried to charge me $60 buck just for measurements and advice.

Jared Planter Over a year ago the shop I regularly took my 87 Westy to for maintenance and repairs lost their VW mechanic. I started searching for a new one and found Specialty Foreign Auto right around the corner from my house. Ive been with them for over a year now and have been absolutely pleased with the service they provide. Just to name a few Ive had oil changes, tune up, suspension upgrades, transmission maintenance and replacement amongst many other things done with them so far. The whole crew is fantastic. Theyre fair, honest, reliable and trustworthy. These old machines can be finicky so its been really great to have a shop that knows their way around them. It has been a pleasure working with the whole team and I look forward to continuing the relationship! Cheers to Craig, Jordan, Vern and team!

Maria Sandoval Joe and his team did a great job on my car. The service was excellent! The work was excellent. They really want to help people in this shop. My car was ready before the agreed time. I found him very generous with his explanation of the work needed to be done. He paid attention to details and was more than willing to fix additional details in my car. He went above and beyond to give me a good deal and to do a good job.

Linda Edwards They are rocking it on my friends car basically doing a build up from the ground up.

Jason Osburn I’ve been going to German Motors for over a decade for work on our Audi and Mercedes, and I couldn’t recommend them any higher!! They are the nicest and most helpful team of people at an auto shop I’ve ever worked with! Their communication and efficiency absolutely shine, and most importantly…I trust them 100% to only recommend what’s best for ME, and to clearly lay out all my options! Go see em, trust me!

Janet Vance This service is excellent! Fair prices and did the repairs so quickly that I was surprised to get my car back so soon. Friendly staff and very efficient. Been there before and had the same excellent service. Thank you very much. Keep up the good work.

Teresa Fogolini Petr has taken excellent care of my 2006 Toyota Highlander for the past 4 years. He is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and dependable.

Beau W Saunders Alex at Gowers Garage helped me get my 2012 Subaru Outback back on the road when I was dealing with a misfire and the dealer had no idea how to fix it. He quickly diagnosed the work, was transparent in the estimate, and had the car back to me when I thought it might be done for, all for a GREAT price. I highly recommend Alex if youre looking for help with your car.
