Kind Words From Our Customers

I highly recommend Seaside Service Center! I had extensive oil leaks repaired and my transmission serviced. The repairs were done in a timely manner and my vehicle was returned on the day promised. The entire process was completed in a professional, courteous and zero hassle atmosphere. The price was very competitive and I would say less expensive with the service I received. I will definitely return to Seaside Service Center for all my automotive needs.

Anthony Fourtunia

Fast reasonable and really know their stuff! Diagnosed my complex issue (audi sq5) and fixed it w/n 24hrs! Cannot recommend more highly!

Paul Wilk

Seaside did a great job on my brakes and AC system! The cost was what I expected and the job completed in a timely manor. Thank you and I would recommend 10/10 for anyone who wants no nonsense service!

mr splarnum

Danny was very knowledgeable and helped to resolve all the issues with my brush mower. He was efficient in diagnosing the problem and was able to give me a detailed estimate for the costs to repair. Not only was the work completed quickly but the final bill was very reasonable. I would highly recommend checking out Seaside for any automotive/ small engine repairs

Justin Parks

The folks at Seaside Service Center were wonderful! I needed to move up my oil change appointment by two days due to a low tire pressure warning. They had me come in right away and took care of everything! Excellent customer service! Will definitely be going back.

Wendy Kane

12 hrs from home water pump goes on my Sequoia. After several calls to shops in the area Phil at Seaside got the job by speaking with confidence & availability. This is no easy repair! Josh the mechanic is a true master and got it fixed in 2 1/2 days. No issues. As a former shop Mgr in the auto & cycle industry have no fear take your vehicle here!

Mike Herschl

I recently purchased a used vehicle from Seaside Powersports and couldn’t be happier with the ease of the process. Phil was an absolute pleasure to work with—zero pressure, no full-court press. He answered every question I had for him, was fine with my having the car inspected by a mechanic before I purchased it, and made the entire transaction very simple. Aside from that, I had my daughter’s car with me that needed a gas door repair. Not only did they fix it at an amazing price, but also we

Lynne D’Eramo

After my serpentine belt snapped, I reached out to Seaside Service Center for repairs. They responded quickly, even arranging to tow my car all the way to their shop. The repair was done efficiently, and I was back on the road in no time. The best part? The cost was incredibly reasonable, especially considering the tow was included. Highly recommend their services!

Justin Pettry

One of the best experiences with an auto shop I have ever experienced. Being a widow and not knowing where to turn with my car, I needed to have work done. I took a chance on these guys and I was so glad I did. They treated me like a wonderful friend. They cared about my situation, and showed me what needed to be done with a price I could afford. I recommend them highly. Thank you guys.

naomi parker

We had a great experience with seaside service center. We were able to leave our jet ski, repairs were made within the week. They put it on the water to make sure it was all working. Friendly service! Jetski working perfectly! Thank you!

Louise Edwards

Our A/C stopped working while on vacation and Seaside Service was able to get us in and out quickly. They were very nice and understanding that we were on a time limit and traveling with young children. Would definitely recommend!

Alexandria Sanders

The guys in the office were very kind and helpful! I will use them again for sure! They talked through the issues with the car without using jargon or communicating in a belittling way like some mechanics are inclined to do. I appreciated their clear communication and the car was fixed quickly. Made an appointment online and then walked through the process with them before they started work, they called after the work was complete and offered for me to pay online and pickup the vehicle after hou

Marcus Magruder

Josh is extremely knowledgeable, thorough and willing to go the extra mile to ensure everything is working correctly. He is the only reason, I was able to make it back on the water in a timely manner.

Michael Daugherty

Had amazing service with Josh! He picked up and dropped off my car which is a luxury in itself. The price was extremely fair and a quick turn around. Would give ten stars if I could!!!

Ashley Elias

Phill, Josh and the other guys are always so professional and kind. We have a Mercedes AMG and no one else will ever work on our car but seaside we don’t trust anyone but them! Phill sold us the car and from the first test drive he treated us with respect and professionalism. I highly recommend them. Best quality car’s and mechanic work! I absolutely love all of them. They are the best!

Sonya Purvis

They were very responsive and jumped right on my truck. They also recommended another issue they noticed that was a safety issue and fixed that problem to. Great guy’s.

Kris Dockery

Excellent service. I had a major engine problem with my mini van. 2 other mechanics told me I had engine failure and to take it to a dealership, I wasn’t willing to break the bank. My friend refered me to Seaside and boy am I glad. They discovered my spark plugs and cylinders were bad and I also had a major oil pan leak. I was a happy camper to get all that work done for $2500 dollars. My car runs better than ever and they managed to squeeze me in over the holidays when no one else would. I rece

O

Purchased and have our cars repairs/maintenance done here. Josh is a great guy, up front on everything and very fast turn around

Chris Smith

Smooth experience. The website is easy to use for scheduling times for diagnosis and they even have a shuttle option if you need a ride home. The web app for viewing the results of the diagnosis came as a link and was intuitive to use. It lets you select the work you want performed. The work performed was top notch and solved my issues. I plan on returning for the rest of the work I chose not to do this time around.

Michael Cameron

Accidentally, found this business and am glad that I did. I thought the days were gone of being able to actually sit and talk to your mechanic and hear his ideas before your vehicle vanishes, into a walled off garage, only to return two hours later with an unexpectedly big bill, with no access to the person who actually did the work. No more “30 minute”, chain, oil change places for me where the “upselling” pressure is embarrassing. I can now say to someone, “you should take it to MY

Scott Lawson

Fast reliable work. My car was ready in one day! Fair pricing. Honest mechanic, hard to find this days!😁

Rosa Nguyen

Seaside as always did a great job. Their work is top notch and done in a timely fashion. Customer service is outstanding and I always feel like I’ve gotten great value on the work being done.

Vince Choken

After my recent experience at seaside, I don’t believe I will ever call a certain local dealer again. The guys at Seaside appear to be very honest, knowledgeable and most important very available. Josh was able to diagnose the issue with my waverunner and get me an est very quickly. I checked off the work I wanted done and parts were ordered. A few days later job was done and was back on the water with no issues. 👌

Valentino Boezi

I had my AC compressor replaced at this shop, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. They got me in right away, were incredibly friendly, and completed the repair quickly. The pricing was also very reasonable, making the experience even better. Highly recommend!

ernie cesero
