                      Juan is the best! Nicest guy, knows his stuff.I was gone and my mom was staying at my place when my car had an issue. Juan helped her out and even spoke to my dad on the phone who is also a mechanic. All this while I was overseas.Juan and the team at Sumida has made buying the Facebook market car and all its problems bearable.Definitely go here.Buy your car at a reputable dealership.

                      Great service! Really quick to get my safety check. No appointment needed. It was a little packed and confusing where to park. I just pulled up in front of the only open bay available and walked into their office. They were quick to help and made the whole process very easy! I will definitely return and would absolutely recommend!

                      These guys are awesome!Called them up in the afternoon, said they'd squeeze me in tomorrow. Dropped my car off the following morning, everything was done by the afternoon. Serpentine belt, pulley, oil change, safety inspection, wiper blades. That's some awesome squeezing on less than 24 hours notice!Not that I'm hoping for more car trouble, but I'll be taking it in to them next time for sure. Stay safe gents!

                      Never got back to me when I called last week about getting new tires. Filled out a form requesting appt for yesterday because website showed availability during that time, e-mail said they would get back to me in one business day.  Never got an email or call back.

                      I have a 2011 Mercedes ML 350 and Sumidas has serviced my regular maintenance since moving back to Oahu a few years ago.A couple of days ago my "brake light indicator" came on so I stopped by Sumidas today to verify the light was actually out and schedule a time to have it fixed.Kevin came right out to check the brake light and actually did a quick fix on the spot saving us both time. I thanked Kevin and said, "I'll be back"!I appreciate the great service so am writing this review. I feel confident bringing my car to Sumidas.Services: Electrical repair, General repairs & maintenance

                      Sumida's auto repair gets 5 solid stars!  Driving the car with 3 pointed stars comes with a hefty costs at times.  I have gone to the local dealer in Honolulu which you can expect to pay very expensive charges for the smallest of repairs.  Then in the years, I have gone to smaller independent shops which are little less than the dealer but I have still received sticker shock.Enter Sumida's which is a smaller shop in downtown Honolulu.  I recently heard about Sumida's through word of mouth and read all good reviews of this business.  I made an appointment have them look at some issues that just appeared on one of my cars and took it in early in the morning.  I received a call that afternoon from Kevin Sumida who told me he inspected all of my concerns and made some adjustments which took care of the problems.  I then asked how much the work was and Kevin said..."oh don't worry about it".  Are you kidding?  I have not heard something like that in years....EVER?!!  Thank you Sumida's and I have found a new mechanic for all of my vehicles!!

                      I needed a mechanic quick. Fortunately I found these guys. They were very thorough and very fair with my daughters Suzuki. It had several issues due to overheating and they fixed them all.

                      As the engine started, the yellow "CHECK" on the dashboard appeared. Call your dealer the car manual says but their earliest appointment is 3 weeks out.  A nearby auto shop graciously diagnoses the culprit but doesn't do those repairs.Two auto shops give quotes but say they will still charge for a diagnostic test ($145) despite the given diagnosis.  Another friendly auto shop owner says he would do the job but his ace mechanic is not available for weeks.So he refers me to Sumida's Auto Repair and I speak with Kevin, the owner, who says he can help me next week. When I share that we only have one car, Kevin says to bring the car in tomorrow and he will work us into his schedule.While unexpected but surely appreciated, we applaud Kevin not only for his Empathy but also his Compassion for our scenario. We highly recommend Sumida's Auto Repair for quality work, excellent customer service, and peace of mind.
