They’re my go-to mechanic in Seattle. Tien used to fix all of our family’s cars growing up nearby in the south end. His nephew took over the business and is doing an equally excellent job. You can buy oil and parts online and they will charge labor to change/fix.

Besides the exceptional work the mechanics provide combined with the friendly service, this is the one place where your money will not only go far, but they will actually tell you if the service is not necessary at this time or can wait. The owner will have a light-hearted banter with you to make your experience even better. Based on the friendly service and excellent and only needed work they do on your vehicle, Tripple T is an auto mechanic shop with a neighborhood feel and can compete with their dealerships counter parts.

best mechanic in the southend! consistent, honest and great prices! The folks here not only take care of your vehicle but treat you with utmost respect, 10/10 experience every time! Also ask for the break bundle special! $280 for breaks and rotors!

These guys were friendly, reasonable, and professional. We got our car back timely and the breaks work great! No more noises when we back up or step on our breaks. We are extremely happy and will be using them for other services in the future.

Worst customer service I have ever experienced. First I left my car there and was told that it would be ready in “a couple of hours.” It took them 2 days to get back to me with diagnostics. Then when I tried to use another shop, they told me it was $100 for diagnostics. They never told me that I would have to pay for diagnostics nor did I sign a contract agreeing to pay for diagnostics. Yet they refused to give me back my car until I paid for it. They quoted me $250 for a misfire. But then said I had to pay an extra $200 for an oil change and an air filter. Something that would cost me $50 to do myself. No thanks. Because I was held hostage, I had no choice but to use them. They told me my car would be ready in the morning. Surprise, when I went to pick it up, they said it wasn’t ready and that I was supposed to get a call from them. So I waited at a coffee shop for 2 hours, expecting a call. It never came. When I gave them a call, they said my car had been ready for over an hour. Did they fix my car? Yes. Did they give me the runaround? Also yes. Save yourself the headache and go to the Firestone across the street.

I’m a smart 75 yr-old driver that’s been in PLENTY of automotive repair shops in the last 50 years. All of them have their own personalities, skill level and pride. I’ve never been in one that could take on every ride that came by. My council for anyone that was put-off by their reception at Triple-T is to be smart enough to “feel it” and calmly drive away. One more thing, (big thing). TT has in their employ people that a enthusiastic, VERY skilled and they like working together. In the last 1 1/2 years I’ve had 3 cars there for a water pump, timing belt, clutch, front-end/steering and belts. They are prompt, friendly at virtually every job the did for me averaged between 15-20 % less than other bids.

This place was an awful experience. Our car wouldn't start so we had it towed (after trying to jump) to Triple T. They charged us $430 for a new starter, and I thought that was the end of it. The day after we got it back, the car wouldn't start again. The shop was not helpful at all, and we ended up getting it towed there again. They tried to close early and not accept our car at all. Then, instead of fixing our car honoring their warranty, they charged us another $150 for spark plugs. Another 2 days after we got the car back, and it is again broken. This place will gouge and gouge, trying to take you for as much as they can. Terrible

These guys are great. They took care of my starter problem with no issue. They were quick and gave a fair price. They took care of some structural car damage as well. I’ll be going back to them in the future.

WORST SERVICE IN THE WORLD WARNING!!! Do not go to Triple T auto repair Came in to get a diagnosis for my car was told I needed to have my catalytic converter replaced and crank shaft replaced…this is all they told me. After receiving my car back and those things “fixed” my alternator randomly stopped working which I had replaced by the car manufacturer not even 4 months ago and never had a problem with until bringing it to triple t. I came back to get that checked out and they didn’t even want to look at my car I had to argue for them to even take it to look again!! Now they are telling me that my alternator is now broken and my car drives worse than it did before even after charging my battery fully. It’s a waste of money and time going to triple t!

Best shop ever!! I take all my cars here and reccomend them highly! Excellent work, fast and helpful. We haven't had work done anywhere else since we found them and have recommended several people who were also satisfied with work and prices. They also have a tow truck so they can pick up your car wherever it's at and get it running like new!

A couple years down the line I'm finding out that all the parts they said they replaced are either the same parts simply adjusted to temporarily work or used parts. My new mechanic kept telling me about all the items I need and showing me that they were never replaced they look to be original to the car. When I went back through my receipts to see all the items I purchased from them I also noticed they were documenting my car in the wrong year, that cannot be a coincidence. WATCH OUT!

Triple T auto repair is hands down one of the best around , Tien who has been working on my stupid car that continues to breakdown (2009 Chevy Aveo) has stayed late waiting for me to arrive, he's showed me how to take care of certain things on my own so I wouldn't have to pay for labor and he's always honest, well priced and really personable. I appreciate the service that I'm provided when I go in there and his prices are always the lowest around as he stated " you work hard for your money like I do , I don't want to take everything you have" Thank you Triple T for everything

I wish I could give this place 0 stars! They are super unprofessional and will give you a higher price and con you for your money. Told me that I needed to fix a certain part of my car (will not disclose) but then I went to another dealer and they said it’s completely fine. All they want is money! Go somewhere else.

They are very helpful & didn’t charge me a dime. Even when I offered to tip them they did not take that. Such great customer service & amazingly friendly staff willing to help where possible.
