Our Seattle I-5 location is in a historic building that was built in 1929. This building was originally used for Stewart Brother's Coffee, but throughout the years the building was used for various different companies. When Greg's Japanese Auto acquired the building in 2002, it needed a major remodel.
Greg's Japanese Auto's Bellevue store opened in 1989. Bellevue is not only the biggest Greg's store, it's the largest independent auto repair facility in Washington and Oregon. Greg's in Bellevue expanded in 1991 and again in 2005 with a grand total of nearly 10,000 sq. When you need Japanese auto repairs in Bellevue, trust the experts who have been doing it since 1987.

Greg’s Japanese Auto is true to their word, even with a problem child. My car was towed in and left for dead but they painstakingly nursed it back to health in a professional manner and at a fair price. I’ll be back.
A special thanks to Karl and the technician that worked on my car. I promise I’ll buy a new er one… soon.

I found Greg's Japanese Auto in Lynnwood after a search for a new shop for my 2007 4Runner SE, 4WD. This vehicle at 170,000 miles has traveled the North American Continent from Alaska to Mexico more than once.
At a local Toyota dealer they estimated $2,100.00 for replacing both CV axles. Greg's came in at $700.00. They replaced both, warrantied them and without me asking shined up my 4Runner.
When you call here you get an experienced mechanic on the phone. Alex knows her business.
I recommend them.

These guys helped me out immensely during what was otherwise a really bad day. They went above and beyond in helping me even though the conclusion was that my car is toast - and, no charge to tell me that! Super honest, they could have taken my money for an engine rebuild, but they are correct that my car isn't really worth the trouble.

I've used Greg's several times before and always had a good experience. However, this time was bad enough that I won't go back.
My battery died. I was quoted an amount that included replacing the battery, an oil change, and several other minor fluid/belt replacements, etc. I agreed to this. When I picked up the car, all they had done was put in a new battery and changed the oil - and charged me over $350! I called them later to dispute the charges, and I had the same thing repeated to me like I'm an idiot, mansplained to, was told to stop talking, and no help was offered

I have taken our Nissan to Lynnwood location of Greg's Japanese Auto five times over the past eight years, each being a positive experience. Making an appointment is easy, the staff communicates in a friendly and professional manner, and the work done is thoroughly. I'd visit again and would recommend them.

Greg's Japanese Auto has done an outstanding job maintaining and repairing the Subaru, Toyota and Mazda autos that my wife and I have owned over the last several years. Greg's has done a much better job for us than the auto dealers' service departments, at a lower cost than the dealer's service departments. Paul and Karl at Greg's Bellevue office have been very helpful and a pleasure to work with.

Years ago when I worked in Bellevue i took my car there to be diagnosed when she wouldn't start up. The manager had a green 3000gt with the same colored interior as I did, to include a moon roof.
Long story short, It was diagnosed I needed an engine rebuild. Sure no problem. Put it back together and we'll proceed how to move forward.
I decided that I wanted to take my car somewhere else to someone who specialized on 3000GTs. When they finished putting my car together they called me and I came to pick it up. I work right down the road, so i came quickly.
As I inspected the car, I realized my

Paid some other mechanic to do the valve cover gaskets on a Mitsubishi Montero. Week later took car to Greg's to have them change the alternator, they said the gaskets were leaking again. I asked Alex to please go ahead and fix em being the car was there. A $600 job ended up costing $1100 cause I didn't go to Greg's in the first place. Now it's fixed and rolling fine. My advice is to go to Greg's in Lynnwood an see Alex and have her give you a quote and get the job done right the first time this will save you money and time. Thanks again Alex and crew for another fine job

They slipped me in for repair on my seat belt and taillights when I really needed them to. I was warned that the belt mechanism might need replacing eventually but they got me working in the meantime. Staff was friendly and efficient, checkout was easy and quick, a big plus lately when it seems so many places don't have the staff they need. A+ from me

I had an excellent experience at Greg’s. Paul and Karl were so helpful and fast. I needed a simple repair on my car, and they had me in and out in under an hour. I felt like they were very affordable as well. My husband and I both have Japanese vehicles and we will exclusively use Greg’s for all of our work.

I really had a great experience with this location. I needed a engine swap done on my car and they were able to get me driving in one week! They were kind and very good at keeping in contact through the whole process. I will absolutely come back to get my other cars fixed. The one thing I wasn't exactly happy about was paying $500 for two motor mounts. Searching online they retail for about $100 each and that's the OEM parts not knock offs. So, besides what i think was an over charge I was very happy with the whole experience.

Brought my car for check in because was told by another shop that life of brakes are nearing its end of life. Received report from this location that they are not - appreciate the honesty. Will definitely be back when my brakes need change. Thank you! Will recommend this shop to all my friends and family.

Pricing is almost similar to the dealership. At least the dealership uses genuine parts.
To replace my Alternators, AC compressor, and water pump; total was $3470.
When they call you about the work that needs to be done, and the total cost, you're already locked into the diagnostic cost and shop fees. So I would suggest you shop around first before having them look at your car.
Alternator replacement: $751.83
AC Compressor replacement: $1475.77
Water pump repayment: $676.28
AC diagnostic: $136.50
Add on tax and $50 shop fee.
I also wasn't offered a courtesy ride, even after spending

I wish there were zero stars. This place is the worst. I don't know if they are scam artists or incompetent. I brought my truck in for the check engine light after a tow. $1500 later and the light was still on. Took the truck back 4 times and ended up paying hundreds more-- just to leave with my check engine light still on.
Took my truck to Firestone in Mill Creek and got it fixed (O2 sensor) for $164.99.
Stay away from Greg's!

Wow, these thieves are worse than than I thought. When they replaced the spark plugs, they acted like they didn't know what the problem was and wanted to charge me 125 buck to run a test. When it was a spark plug wire that you could see with the naked eye, SHISTERS, THEY SHOULD BE BANNED FROM DOING BUSINESS. You can't get any lower than this trash.

Incredibly overpriced! I went in for a possible battery/alternator issue and they gave me a bid of over $800 to fix it, plus over $2K in "recommended" services. Because my car wouldn't start, I felt s little trapped once there, so ended up just getting the battery replaced (which I was charged $200 for). Do not go here! They charge at least 40% more than is reasonable. If I could, I would give them zero stars.

I brought a car in for inspection that I was going to buy from a private party. These guys fit me in to their schedule on spur of the moment and they saved me a lot of money!!! The car ended up being a wreck and they were honest and upfront about it. I would bring my business to these guys in the future. Very honest and professional!!
