I initially had my car towed in because it would not start. Precision was able to identify the problem, (a broken ignition lock), however, they stated that it would be easiest to resolve through the dealership. I primarily spoke with Josh and he went above and beyond to help me figure out the logistics with the dealership (who were not quite as helpful). Despite not having fixed the issue, I fully trust Precision to act with integrity and transparency and would definitely recommend them for that alone. I am especially grateful to Josh for helping me navigate my situation with patience and honesty.

After moving here from South Carolina one month ago and having a great local mechanic take care of my vehicles, (shout out to Roysons K and A automotive). I am happy to have found Precision, felt like I was right back with my local, yet knowledgable mechanic. Feeling more like home everyday. Thank you for great service.

Precision Automotive is outstanding—clear communication, fair prices, skilled techs, and a clean shop. Josh explained everything with patience, and I trust them completely with my truck. Highly recommend!

Every time I come here I have a great experience. When I first moved to Tacoma, Steve and his team took care of my personal vehicles whenever they needed maintenance. When servicing the vehicles he is honest about their condition and anticipates what they need to prevent problems down the road. When there is something wrong with one of my vehicles he is honest about the repairs that are necessary. Precision Automotive is a mechanic shop with high integrity and excellent service. They now service all of my company vehicles as well. Their pricing is very fair and transparent. In one instance I had my truck get stolen and when the police recovered it the locks and ignition were busted out and the catalytic converter was gone. He meticulously inspected and tested the truck after we got it back and worked with me while we dealt with insurance to pay for the repairs. Steve has even given me a ride home when he didn’t feel one of my vehicles was safe to drive and we determined together the repairs would cost more than one of my vehicles was worth. I can’t recommend them enough.

Josh, the manager, was very friendly and helpful. My issue was resolved and within the price quoted. I'd definitely recommend giving them a chance to service your vehicle.

Steve and his staff were referred to me as being an honest, trustworthy group where my vehicle(s) would be competently repaired with great customer service. I can attest to the truth of this. The first time I spoke with Steve was when I actually had a vehicle at Cooper's to be repaired, and had paid them a LOT of money, only to have it break down again immediately after picking it up; it was *again* at Cooper's for a long time, and I was being told of another large sum it was going to *again* cost me for *more* repair. Steve disagreed with what I had been told about it, as he believed the problem to be something entirely different. I had a tow-company go get my vehicle. Cooper's left oily rags all over the floorboards and the underside of the front dash and steering wheel was in pieces all over the floor of the vehicle. Steve was actuaĺly right!-- and repaired the problem the same day it was brought to him---and saved me HUNDREDS of dollars from what COOPERS planned to have me pay. He and his staff do honest work and don't inflate anything being proposed to be done. RARE in the car-repair industry! They have now had my repeat business, and I have never felt as though I've been taken advantage of. Ever. I can heartily recommend them to anyone looking for ethical, solid mechanical repair or service. And Bonus: They're all genuinely nice people!!

I needed some transmission shifter repairs, and they did a great job. I have had consistently good experiences with Precision Automotive.

Integrity. Quality work and fairness. Been going for over 15 years and will keep coming because finding honest and competent isn’t always easy when finding someone to work on your car. Had oil change and asked to inspect. No charge for inspection. With so many raising prices stating inflation or tariffs my costs were a mere 8 bucks more than same month last year. They were quick gave me a list with how pressing other matters were. AND let me know Nothing was immediately pressing. Find another mechanic that is that honest.

Honest & reliable. Fairly priced. My car’s transmission light came on after some body work from an auto body place. I brought my car here. They found (quite quickly) that after the body work, someone forgot to plug something back in! They only charged me for for a bit of labor. I’ve gone back here for all my automotive needs since. They are who I refer my friends and family too. They give accurate estimates and most importantly, don’t try to upsell things you don’t need, don’t want, or can’t afford. They won’t do any work without your authorization as well. Trustworthy. Something you don’t see very often these days.

My van was not running well. The check engine light kept lighting up on my dashboard. I needed a good local shop to help me. I found Precision Automotive on 6th. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy and charge a fair price. I didn't find a good local shop, I found an outstanding one. I highly recommend them for your vehicle.

These people do what you want and need done to your automobile in a professional and timely manner. I have had routine maintenance, such as oil changes, as well as maintenance to worn brakes, front end etc. Great shop.

Excellent customer service. Had some questions about future needs and they took the time to explain everything I needed to know and answered all my questions. Definitely encourage people needing car service to try them out.

Josh at the front counter helped my wife and I out with our car. He was very kind and professional. They did a wonderful job! We were in and out of there in no time. I highly recommend them for any automotive needs

Paid $444 to have my headlights switched out from factory. I brought in the headlights. When I took it in, they said they fit & looked even better than the originals. However, lamp on the driver's side is just a rainbow. I asked if they could look at it & before I could even get out of the car, Joshua stated they were cheap Amazon parts & they couldn't help me. This is not the typical service I get here. **The owner took responsibility and fixed the alignment of the headlights, which were not included in the initial estimate. I said I would pay, but he wouldn't hear of it. Like I said, the dismissal wasn't the typical service I have experienced there. Headlights are now fixed. Thank you for taking a second look.

The owner and the technicians are awesome. Friendly and knowledgeable. I’ve had to bring my car in twice in the last three months and I had great service both times.

I had a good experience here. They are friendly, honest and straightforward. It was easy to book an appointment. I got a head gasket repair (and more) on my 2005 Honda Civic. The estimate was exactly what I ended up paying.

I had an excellent experience at Precision Automotive and Transmission. The service was outstanding from start to finish. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, genuinely kind, and clearly focused on taking care of their customers. It’s obvious this shop is run efficiently and with a high level of professionalism. I had a challenging situation with my vehicle and some tight timing around getting it fixed, and the team truly went above and beyond to accommodate me. They were flexible, communicative, and made what could have been a stressful situation much easier. I highly recommend Precision Automotive and Transmission, and this will absolutely be my go-to place for service moving forward.
