Ocean Front Auto Repair in
Ocean Shores (WA)

I found myself stranded while running errands when my car's engine wouldn't turn over. A long time local recommended Ocean Front Auto Repair which was in walking distance. I explained the symptoms—the car wouldn't start but the dash lights were blinking—and they immediately suspected a dead battery. They took the initiative to call local tow and roadside assistance for me, and I was able to get a jump start. I then brought the car to Ocean Front, where they ran a diagnostic test and confirmed it was indeed a dead battery. They had a new battery installed that same afternoon, getting me back on the road quickly. I really appreciated their prompt response, accurate diagnosis, and efficient service. It's reassuring to find a repair shop that genuinely cares about helping customers in a bind. Highly recommend Ocean Front Auto Repair!

Had a simple job for them. Replace some upper control arms on my truck. Said the work was done. Picked it up... worse than it was before. The truck was making loud popping noises after they touched it when i turned either direction. Also the steering wheel was really crooked by 45 degrees. They lied about test driving it because they wouldve caught that. They shouldve taken me back right away to fix their mistakes instead the put me in the back of the line, weeks out. That made me mad

I can not say enough good things about this shop. The two mem that worked there were amazing. Our truck broke down on the hwy there and we had it towed to the shop. We have trouble getting people to work on our truck because it has a turbo and is chipped. They got it in, changed the alternator not once but twice and has on on the road before we had to come home. Great work guys. Thank you so much...

Was in Ocean Shores for vacation. Day before I was to leave I had an car issue I needed to take care of. Showed up unannounced, talked to Paul. Very friendy, helpful, got my car right in and quickly got me on my way. Excellent business look for Ocean Shores.

Best and most honest auto repair shop I've ever found! They are thorough, timely, friendly, reasonably priced and come through in an emergency. I would recommend them to everyone looking for a trustworthy repair shop! They've saved me from disaster more than once.

We are lucky to have this shop here they do great work in a timely manner took my car in for trans service and it was done quickly and I was on my way he explained everything he did clearly to me

Had a flat tire and Avalon Towing & Recovery guys came to the rescue to throw on our spare tire. They recommended Ocean Front Auto Repair, they patched up our tire in no time and for a super amazing price. Saved the day on our vacation! Thank you.

Paul was awesome! Super friendly and got us back on the road in less than 20 minutes. I had a flat tire with a screw in it. Paul was efficient and got us right in.

Great service! Super bummed that we ran over a board that had nails in it on the beach but we were back on the beach within an hour of having our tire repaired here! Treated with care and respect!

I had an unexpected issue come up a few days ago, and Paul at Ocean Front Auto got it properly diagnosed and fixed within three hours! He was incredibly friendly, explained the issue and the solution, and got the job done for a very good price!

Lied about the price, Did NOT fix the problem.we took the car back 6 times, & still have the same noise. $1000 later, We are going to have to spend more to get our car fixed.More than dissapointed!😒😡.

Paul repaired a slow leaking tire. He fit me in. I asked if he could do other repairs but he was booked up for 2 weeks. I was passing through while traveling in Washington State. After seeing my rear rotors he said he couldn’t let me go without fixing my rear brakes. He also worked in an oil change. I appreciate his integrity of taking care of my problem and not just sending me on my way. I highly recommend his garage. He runs a respectable business. Thanks Paul.

This place saved us! Had a flat tire with nail stuck on Tesla car, not everyone can service Tesla cars. When I called them, they were able to troubleshoot with us, we pumped the tire and brought it to the shop. They were able to patch it with no wait. Thank you very much!

Got me back on the road to home in a couple of hours. Home is Ocean Shores so it was nice to find a repair facility without driving to Aberdeen; I found price more than fair, friendly quick service. Plan on using them for my local service center, they can pretty much do anything you need. This kind of auto service is hard to find but my expectations were exceeded; Yes, I put brake fluid in my power steering unit, I was in panic mode and they brought it all together! Thanks guys!

We were in town on vacation over Christmas, and our car battery started dying. The brothers working there came out and took a look and got us a new battery. They even installed it for us, which was amazing because we didn't have any tools.

1. Had my 2001 suburban towed into his shop cuz it wouldn't start he had it for a month and said he couldn't figure it out and charged me $150 and told me i would have to have it towed to Aberdeen which was another $240 bucks. 2. Thought id give him another chance so i dropped off the suburu cuz it didn't start right away and i had them do a pretrip inspection, tire rotation, check breaks, oil change and he said he installed a new crankshaft sensor. He said it starts and runs great now, well the next day all the symptoms came back so i hooked up my computer and it said i need a new crankshaft sensor.??He charged me $500 for this go around. When i went back to the shop his shop was closed he had gone on vacation. I won't be back!!!!

While driving through Ocean Shores on our first road trip to the States we got a flat type. We limped into Ocean Front Auto Repair and they very kindly put our spare on for us. Thank you so much.

Was on an overnight trip to Ocean Shores and my car leaked over 2 quarts of oil. Called and spoke with Paul and he told me to stop in. They squeezed us in at lunch time and replaced my fuel filter and seal. So far so good! Thank you for helping out a stranded traveler! Highly recommend these guys!

Paul helped get my oil changed and checked my tires for punctures. Excellent friendly service and reasonably priced I'm glad I found my go to auto repair right after moving here!

Very impressed with Paul’s honesty, prices, & hospitality. He was able to give me a reputable answer on what needed to be completed on my Honda. He also went out of his way to advise of potential repairs that would need to be done done the road. I’d recommend this mechanic to anyone that wants fair pricing and honest mechanics.

I give this shop and the 2 owners my highest praise for fair pricing, performing only needed repairs, plus just plain friendly to do business with. They held a 22 year old 92 Eagle together for 7 years till it gave up the ghost (181000 miles). Its replacement was a used Honda van whose transmission gave out after 3 years of our use. They took care of us again and fixed some incidental issues without fanfare or charge. 10+ guys!

Paul is very nice and clearly his clients love having their cars treated here, because he is honest, and just plain Nice! He is very accommodating and does great work. When people are in any way unhappy with service the waiting room is where it comes out. Here, the waiting room was quiet and calm. People just calmly waiting for their car to emerge from its service. That says a lot.

These guys could have easily taken me to the cleaners but they didn't. I had come over from the east side and my tire light came on. Since I'm from out of town I would have had to pay just about anything just to get back on the road. They got me in within hours, checked my tires, didn't find a problem, aired me up and got me on my way. Didn't charge me a dime (this won't happen for everyone: but, if these guys say you have a problem, you can trust them not to overcharge you) I highly recommend them

Paul is Top Notch. There is nobody else I would trust with My Auto's but Ocean Front Auto Repair. If there is nothing wrong he will tell you. Paul is honest and fair and his rates are very reasonable. This is one business that Ocean Shores is lucky to have. Thanks Paul Jim Mattingly, Google Guide 7

There are two Auto repair shops in Ocean Shores and both are awesome. Ocean Front Auto is our preferred Auto repair shop though, because we know the main mechanic very well. We've been very satisfied with the maintenance and repairs Ocean Front Auto has performed on all three of our vehicles. It's a shop that can be trusted. The folks there are very nice, honest, and very trustworthy.

These guys are super! We have a motorhome that was giving us problems in the front end. They diagnosed on one day, ordered the parts and replaced the calipers on both sides. Works great! VERY honest and work is superior! Thank you Paul for the work you did for us! We really appreciate all you did for us. You guys went above and beyond!!!

Had wheel bearing problem, service was immediate when I walked in they found other issues and after a quick phone call I had new brakes and a cv axle installed also. Paul is a very friendly and personable guy, work was done at a fair price for what they did and it was done with quality. I would highly recommend them for anybody with a vehicle problem.
