What clients say about Yai's Auto Repair in Safety Harbor (FL)
Yai solved a very serious problem with the electronic brain for my truck's computer operating system. Nissan 2023 Frontier. He worked on it all weekend two days after Christmas and had it done mid day Sunday, and he didn't give up, like i feel a lot of other mechanics would have. He is honest and is way above the average mechanic and has the work ethic to show that. A+ knowledge and work ethic and honesty. Highly recommend if you are looking for a dependable new mechanic instead of some random place. Yai is a small local business owner in Safety Harbor, the shop is right off Mcmullen.
Yai was able to find a problem with my old Ford that my other mechanic tried 3 times to solve. I'm confident that his priority is keeping my vehicle running well at a fair price.
Went to this location to get an alternator replaced. The price was five hundred dollars more than anyone else.And they wanted the money up front. When I asked them why they needed the money up front because they had the car and I intended to get the car fixed.They advised that mechanic's leans are expensive. I would advise not to do business with this place.
Solid team of seasoned techs and mechanics;
Very selfless in their work ethic and expertise, knowledgeable and very kind.
Would highly recommend this shop for service.
You will be relieved you stopped in! Yai and his mechanics are dependable, thorough and easy to talk to. Aaron is diligent, and cares about the health of the vehicle. My SUV is running like new again, thanks to their recommendations. Thank you guys!!
I have not gone to Yai's shop, but I have experienced his humanity. I was stuck at a gas station after locking my keys, phone, wallet, everything in my car. I had been waiting already for an hour and a half at this point when Yai asked if I needed help. He said he had a part at his shop and would be right back to help me out. "For peace of mind" he said he wanted to run back to his shop, 10 minutes away, to help a complete stranger. True to his word, he came back and opened my car door and was gone before I could offer him anything. So I'm offering what I can - a vouch for his character. Thank you Yai for you kindness.

Yai's is professional, competent and reliable. You won't be disappointing.

went to get my engine fixed after having so issues with it shutting off. they told me it was a quick fix but needed a lot of labor and expensive parts. so i paid the 650 for it upfront and lo and behold the issue was still there. told them that I want it fixed since that's what I paid for. brought the car back and left it there for a several days only to find out the only thing they did was give it a 30 sec test drive, tell me I was wrong and the engine had no issues. and moved it to a parking lot for 7 DAYS sitting with no work done to it. I am beyond angry at this unprofessionalism and lying to me. anyone who needs work to your car just go to tires plus down the road. they actually do the work right and don't tell you there's nothing wrong to scam you
A mechanic you can trust. Never been their before but he gave honest advice on what was repaired. What he saw needing repair, and how much time you could be safe before needing said repair. As an example he told me of repairs to my brakes (probably in 5 to 6 months, repair to my fuel pump, probably within a year, etc.,) It reassured me that I could plan ahead.
Haven't had repairs done. I called last Friday 10/22 for a quote and was told they would call me back. Never received a call back. Called again yesterday 10/28 was told they would call me back right away. No call back. I am very patient and if you tell me your busy or backed up I would completely understand. That would also allow me to decide if I want to wait for a return call or move on. They very friendly each time I called and sounded like they wanted to help. If I hear back or decide to use them I will update this.
Yai and his team did a wonderful job on our car. The prices were fair and service was excellent! I would recommend this place for auto repair to anyone who needs it. Thanks to Yai and his team.
My experience with Yai is always similar to that of a family member helping me out. Yai is always happy, wise, and exemplifies a strong work ethic. He had my vehicle in and out in less than 24 hr when I had an out-of-state trip to make. Efficient and punctual, I trust Yai wholeheartedly. Thanks Yai!
Very impressed with Yai and his team! They truly went above and beyond with their service! My repair was completed quickly and the price was very reasonable. Great to know that there are still such honest and hardworking mechanics out there who take pride in their work. I highly recommend these guys.
Very happy with their services! Professional, highly skilled and honest that's what I love about these guys. I don't trust anyone else to touch my vehicle.
Brought my 2013 Honda in for some starter and belt issues .
Clinton diagnosed it and gave me a great quote . Had the work done in a very timely manner. Honest and fast mechanics.
I brought my 2002 Tacoma to Clinton and Yai because my truck was driving weird. Clinton new instantly what the issue was and showed it to me. My rear tire was separating. Clinton presented me with options on tires and upfront, beyond reasonable pricing. My truck was finished in no time.The price I was quoted is the price I paid. Since then my truck has been running like new.
I highly recommend this business these are top notch mechanics with integrity.
I can not stop working more then 1 day. I take my SUV and less then 1 day they give me my car back and was avalible to continue working. I definitely recommend this place. They kno what they are doing. And they was avalible to answer all my questions. Great job.
Yai’ and his crew have been servicing my 2003 Matrix Toyota for over 15+ years
Yai is an honest person and he likes to help his customers make sure they get a good price on the parts and the labor
Yai always makes sure every customer understands what kind of work and cost will be before anything gets worked on
He will honor his work if the wrong part is sent and if the work may take longer than expected
I always recommend Yai to anyone that is having car issues
He is a great person and knows how to fix cars
Best auto repair shop I have ever been too. They repaired my car in a very timely manner. Used only quality new parts and my car works and sounds like new. Would definitely recommend this repair shop to anyone looking for one!
Yai is a great person and a great mechanic. If it needs to be fixed he lets me know , but if it's safe then he tells me. I have had quotes from him and he got the parts for a lot cheaper and inturn passed the savings to me. He is very honest and trustworthy.
Clint and Yai are quite possibly two of the coolest people I have met in the state of Florida. You can really judge the quality of a business based on how happy the people are that are working there. These guys love the work they do. The pricing is also crazy good. I legit just want to go back to the place and hang out at this point. Do yourself a favor, go experience them for yourself. You will simply walk away a happier person than you were going in.
Yai installed a new side mirror that I provided for $25.00 less than 2 other local Safety Harbor auto repair companies! And gave me excellent service above and beyond what I asked for! Put air in tires, checked and topped off engine fluids and even put new windshield wipers on! Awesome experience! I can see why a friend recommended him! Honest and hard working
Awesome. These guys are the best in the entire Clearwater area. Super trustworthy. Another shop quoted me a $2000 fix, but these guys dug in, did a full diagnostic, and figured out the real issue. $187 well spent. Go to Yai's!
I took my hybrid there for a hybrid malfunction, they diagnosed me for free, they ran my VIN number at dealer to see if I have warranty and I did, they drove it and took it to dealer, followed up with the dealer and made sure what the dealer said was accurate, and didn’t ask me for any money, very professional and helpful and just to be nice! I’ve never met any mechanic as honest and helpful as them!! They will be my go to and I highly recommend them and will be sending more business there way!!
Don't use insurance, they have no clue how to process it, plus they replaced things that did not need to be replaced and the supplemental was denied and I had to pay $600. Other than that the work done was very good.
