Old Town Auto Service has been a trusted name in auto repair since 1975. Wally Cunningham, auto mechanic turned entrepreneur, founded the company with his wife Sharon. Together they built the business (previously known as Old Town Brake & Front End) into the notable auto repair shop it is today. As the word spread that Wally had opened shop, the business grew and Wally recruited his son Steve to jump on board and help in the family business.
Old Town Auto Service began as a dream in the mind of founder Wally Cunningham. Wally cut his teeth working for his future father-in-law at A&B Wheel and launched Old Town back in 1975. Nowadays, his son Steve and daughter-in-law Lacee keep the proud tradition of excellence alive. As a family-owned shop, Old Town Auto Service places an emphasis on honesty and personal relationships.
Unless your vehicle requires premium gasoline, filling up your vehicle with high-octane gas is a waste of money. The premium gas doesn't boost your gas mileage or performance. If you're not sure what grade works best for your vehicle, your owner's manual will tell you. You can also ask your mechanic what grade to use.
Acura offers an appealing mix of performance, technology, and value with its street-performance-oriented RDX compact crossover, the TSX wagon, and the ZDX, a fastback-styled crossover. These models join the popular RL luxury sedan, the midsize TL sedan, and the entry-level TSX sport sedan in Acura's lineup.
Based in Germany, Audi builds prestigious cars and SUVs that combine luxury and sport. In recent years, the A4, A6, and A8 models have been joined by the TT sport coupe and roadster, the A3 hatchback, the Q5 crossover SUV, the A5 coupe, the R8 sports car, and the A7 luxury hatchback sedan. At Old Town Auto Service, our technicians have the skill and experience to work on all Audi models.

Old Town Auto Service has serviced our vehicles for the past 10 years. They are professional, kind, and always deliver within the estimated time. We are satisfied with the quality of their repairs and service. When I took in a vehicle that was in really bad shape, they gave me an estimate but also suggested that it may not be worth the cost of repairing due to several factors. I was happy that I could trust them to give me honest feedback and service and not try to force an expensive repair. They care about us as a long-term customer and show that with the follow-up calls to determine our satisfaction

First of all do not leave your car here overnight under any circumstances, they will steal it. Manager claimed the keys were stuck in the car the night before, they got there in the morning and their gate was open and the car was gone, now who else thinks that sounds fishy? very shady overpriced dealings going on at this place, would not trust them to change my oil.

They tried to massively overcharge me on an issue that was just fully replaced a few days earlier, even after i told them that it had all new parts. So i then went to pick up my car and they straight laughed at me as if i was dumb and didn't know what i was talking about or doing. I DO NOT recommend this auto service shop. I feel extremely disrespected.

My car was having transmission issues, they took it in while they were already busy and had it fixed by the next day. They didn't even charge me as much as they could have for the container of transmission fluid they needed to top it off, and the entire repair was extremely reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

The customer service here is top of the line. I had my Mazda repaired and they called me, emailed me to make sure I was 100% happy. I had a slight issue a few days later and Steve could not get on it and take care of it fast enough.
They care. Even sent me a free car wash coupon. 9
I respect this staff so much. I can not believe the customer service.
Well done .
You are my stop from here on in

Robert helped me out when I was in a bind to ready my vehicle for a road trip the next day. He also went the extra mile to try to help me resolve a tire warranty issue with a local shop I'd used previously. I've already recommended them to a friend and expect to go back the next time I need a mechanic.

I brought my car in because of a code reading a misfire in the 2nd cylinder and when I dropped it off I asked if they could check the spark plugs and coil first so I wouldn't have to pay for the engine diagnostic test.
I was still charged for the engine diagnostic test and the problem was the spark plugs and coil. It made me feel like I was being taken advantage of because i paid over $600 to replace my spark plugs.

Good service, good repairs, on the high side for prices, when you see the quality of the work and customer service.
I dropped them down because they missed a really big problem with the vehicle that they should have saw and reported, that if I were to do the work after the fact that they missed it will now cost an arm and a leg to have fixed.

Stopped by here on an unexpected issue with my car during my road trip. Employees and the owner (I think he was the owner) were nice and the waiting area was clean. I wish there was an​ auto shop as nice as this in LA.
I ended up paying more than the initial quote on the phone for the exact same job that I inquired but I wasn't super overcharged like many other auto shops scam with their customers.
Initially was told 30min but had to wait for a little over an hour.
Stop by here if you are around Eureka and need some TLC for your car!

I've been a customer since the 70's, this shop has saved me a good deal of $ over the years. I started with Wally and Steve his son has kept the standards his Dad had. They haven't done work that wasn't needed even though I asked them to.(thought I needed my brakes done & they didn't need any work) The work I did have done was done on time my truck and was returned cleaner than I gave to them. They have a shuttle service and some loaner cars too. These are the only people I will let work on my truck. I send my friends and family without thinking twice. All the

Grateful, is how I feel after dealing with this and their sister shop at 3rd and U. My RV broke down while traveling through Eureka with my 86yo mom, my daughter and granddaughter. Didn't know what to do, they were so helpful, willing to do whatever to make us comfortable. They gave us a loaner car while we had to wait which ended up being overnight. They had us up an back on the road running great, the next afternoon. Thank you to the owner and the service manager. We appreciate everything you did.

I wanted to like this place. They are AAA approved. They maintain beautiful curb appeal, and their staff is friendly. However, not only was there a scratch put through the tint on my window that they assured me they didn't do, they didn't complete the job. They wanted to charge me more than the estimate to finish when I returned to explain what portion was not completed . Clearly there was a breakdown in communication because the particular part was not even ordered. I will have to find someone else. I don't see myself using them again.

Okay, so first off let's start with what I came in for. I came in for a standard 67,500 mile service on my 2008 VW EOS 2.0T. The price came out to be about $133 which is a bit rich for my blood but the car needed servicing and I wasn't gonna argue with that... It took them about a half hour after my appointment time before they got my car up in the garage and finished it in about an hour and a half. When I got the car back they said the only issues they had was that they didn't have the necessary tools to turn off my service light on my car haha! Charged me about $96 in parts and

The Owner of Old Town Brake and Auto was extremely rude and unprofessional toward customers....I recieved the worst costumer service from the owner of this business today. I had previously brought my vehicle in for a check up last week, but they were unable to preform the diagnostics(computer scan of vehicle) due to my faulty battery. When I spoke with the mechanic working on it, he informed me that he would be unable to do a full inspection of my car until my battery was replaced. I walked out that day paying 146$, 50$ for a replaced head light(bulb cost 15$!!) and 89$'for a mechanic to drive
