Lioe's Automotive Service

ALOHA SPIRT! Lioe's is the best! They are family oriented and really the best expert mechanics in our neighborhood. They did a complete job on a pre-purchase inspection I was going to buy. They advised me to keep looking. I expect to pay for great service pulling a skilled mechanic away from his job to review and analyze the car i was looking at. I have serviced my cars here before and always the best job done. They are busy and to my surprise they gifted me such Aloha spirit and Uncle didn't charge me as a repeat customer for the pre inspection. They charge 90 to 160 for inspection. So, this was so kind, generous and wow I was so touched. THANK YOU UNCLE AND OHANA for being so caring and kind. So grateful for all of you. Mahalo, Margaret

Final Review (1 Star): I have changed my review from two stars to one. After allowing more than a week for a response, I received nothing. No phone call, no email, not even an acknowledgment here. This silence only confirms the validity of my earlier concerns. If you find yourself in an emergency, their services may suffice; but for continued care, I strongly advise caution, unless you are prepared to be taken advantage of. Edit: After years of bringing my vehicles here and spending more than $4,000 on repairs, timing belt, spark plugs, brakes, and more, I picked up my car only to discover the alternator was failing. The battery light appeared after only a few drives, followed by loss of power on the freeway at night. When I called the next morning to arrange a simple installation an alternator, I was met with condescension. The individual on the phone questioned whether I “even knew what was wrong” and insisted on a full diagnosis next week. Having just received the car back from them, I find it unacceptable that such an obvious issue went unnoticed, and worse, that there was no urgency in correcting it. This shop is quick to provide expensive recommendations but slow to take responsibility for basic, essential service. What I once believed to be a reputable establishment now appears to value revenue over integrity. Original Post (Now Outdated): In earlier years, this garage was prompt and dependable. They serviced my Saab, providing fair prices for an oil change and air sensor replacement. Later, when I purchased an older RL, they performed larger repairs: brakes, timing belt, and water pump. As well as thoroughly inspecting the vehicle, resolving discrepancies along the way. At that time, I was glad to have them nearby and intended to remain a loyal customer. Unfortunately, their recent conduct has erased that confidence entirely.

Fair, honest, and high quality. I had major work done over a year ago and it's worked out well. Businesses do not have an easy time in their field or environment, and the price is what it is. It was worth it. Thanks team!

The only place I've taken my cars to get fixed, honest and reliable family owned mechanic. Have had many repairs done within my budget and always stand by their work. don't take your car elsewhere!

Absolutely awful. Do not take your car here. I paid 8k for a 150 mile service and repairs and the next day the car stalled going up a hill. They insisted they “couldn’t replicate the problem” and it had nothing to do with their work. Draw your own conclusions. I also showed my invoice to 3 other mechanics and they all agreed Lioe’s inflated every charge they could out of the job.
