Kyles Auto Repair and Restoration

These guys were so great! I was driving home to Canada from California when my car started leaking massive amounts of coolant, so I found these guys on Google and gave them a call.
They were able to fit me in that evening, even though they were about to close, and were able to get me fixed up and back on the road in under an hour.
Such friendly, personable service, with totally affordable prices. Thanks guys!

Love this shop… While visiting a nearby campground, a tree branch fell and crushed the hood of our car. Our insurance company recommended Kyle’s to check the damage and make temporary repairs to get us back on the road to our final destination. Kyle and Curtis both were gracious enough to get me in right away and see the vehicle. They looked under the hood and checked the damage and explained what issues we needed to keep an eye on. Turned out no work was needed, and we were able to safely get back on the road having peace of mind. They didn’t charge for the inspection either. These guys are super friendly and have plenty of integrity. I highly recommend them. Thanks Kyle and Curtis for your service.

Our experience at Kyle’s could not have been better. When our Subaru broke down on a Sunday and we had to be towed, Kyle was right there to check it out. He replaced the timing belt the following day and got us back on the road. The folks at Kyle’s were friendly, efficient and fair. A rare thing these days! Of course, no one likes to break down at the beginning of a long vacation, but these people made it almost enjoyable. Thanks guys!

You don’t feel like you’re getting raked over the coals and that they know what they’re talking about very professional and fast I would recommend to anybody

We were traveling up the coast and the car started making an awful sound near the front tire. It was getting late and most shops had closed already. We found Kyle’s Auto still open and willing to help on short notice. The father and son operation worked well past closing time to have us back on the road again. Very friendly and professional. Couldn’t be happier.

Kyle is so awesome. Me and my boyfriend were driving from LA to Seattle and our car broke down in the middle of nowhere. A tow truck came and the man recommended Kyle. He took our 93′ Mercedes in at 4 PM, diagnosed the problem, and got the parts within the hour. Our car was back on the road about 3 hours after it broke down which was pretty much unbelievable. Not only that but Kyle was super chill. Thank you Kyle!!!

Kyle and Curtis are fantastic. They offered a quick oil change while we were traveling and stayed late to complete it. Kyle even ran out to get the correct oil while we enjoyed a wonderful conversation with Curtis. They treated us like valued customers, and we were entertained while we waited. This is a great place to stop in!

Stopped by the shop on Saturday because here on Unilocal it says open on Saturdays. When I got there the guy said we are closed today and not very polite. He said they would be open Monday. On Monday a lady answered the phone and said we are closed on Mondays. The mechanics are not here. It also says they are open on Monday on Unilocal

My boyfriend and I are on a road trip from Seattle visiting the Northern California coast. We decided to get an oil change just for peace of mind in our good old Toyota forerunner. We’re so glad we found this place! The guys helping us (I think Kyle and his dad?) were helpful, entertaining and professional. Prices were very reasonable and they went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. They have a wonderful dog and told us lots of fun stories (while working of course). They even gave us some great travel recommendations!
Overall, a great experience! I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

I was a little wary seeing a mechanic with all 5-​star reviews, but Kyle’s Auto Repair deserves every one of them. I’ve never had such a great experience at a mechanic’s. We were in town on vacation, and the check engine light on our 2008 Honda Fit started flashing when the car accelerated. The car also started shaking when it was idling. We were worried about driving back to the Bay Area without getting it checked out, but we were dreading dealing with a mechanic.
We described the situation to Curtis, and he offered to hook the car up to the diagnostic machine to see if there were any stored codes from the flashing check engine light. He asked us about the last place we fueled up the car (as fuel issues can sometimes cause the shaking), and after we mentioned it’d been a long while since we’d had a compression test, or any maintenance, done on the car, he offered to do that and replace the spark plugs if needed. He laid out the costs of each piece of the diagnostic work and the parts involved for us, and spent a while on the phone with different suppliers trying to get us the less-​expensive air filter that was supposed to be in stock. It was only a difference of $ 12 between the two, but he didn’t hesitate to make the calls, and eventually got the less expensive filter.
Kyle did the work on the car and tested it out, and now the shaking is gone and the acceleration is much smoother, all for much less than we would’ve been charged anywhere in the Bay Area. Next time our car is coming up for routine maintenance, it’s tempting to plan another trip to Crescent City for another trip to Kyle’s. I never would have imagined spending an hour or two at a mechanic’s would leave me in a better mood, but Curtis and Kyle are wonderful people who do a great job, and I can’t recommend them more strongly.

I don’t leave reviews often, unless a place just really impresses me all around. From the moment I walked through the door, I felt welcome. Curt and I chatted for a while. He explained to me that they had a few projects going on and that the earliest they could look at my Blazer would be about a week. I towed my ailing truck there and was set on not hearing back from them for a while. A day and a half later and Kyle had it finished. The bill wasn’t nearly as bad as I had anticipated either.
If you are local, get your car work done here. If you are passing through and need car work, these guys got you covered. From incredible customer service, to knowledgeable and fast mechanics, they are hands down the best repair shop I have ever done business with.

I have had my BMV serviced/​repaired at Kyle’s for the past couple of years now. It is no exaggeration to say that this shop has saved me thousands of dollars on my automotive needs. Kyle and Curtis are as honest as the day is long, and you can feel secure that you are being treated fairly and ethically when you have your vehicle serviced there. They truly do care about their customers and getting the job done right, at a very affordable price. I know for a fact that Kyle works many late night and weekend hours to get his customers ‘back on the road’. Crescent City is very fortunate to have an automotive repair shop of this caliber. Obviously, I highly recommend these folks, and will continue to use their services for as long as I remain in this area.

My family and I were on the way back to Seattle from Carmel when we started to loose power 15 miles out of Klamath.
Our tow truck driver took us to Kyle’s Auto, as he was only one of two mechanics in town who would touch an Audi. We got to his shop late Friday afternoon
Kyle was able to diagnose,
find the part, fix the problem, and get us out on the road first thing in the morning.
Thanks, Kyle!

Kyle is so honest and trustworthy. He has been working on cars for his entire life, so his skill level is top notch. Oil changes, tune ups, brakes, and everything else under the hood. Kyle’s got it covered.
I am pretty skeptical of mechanics with scare tactics and all, but I would trust my car with Kyle any day.

My family and I were vacationing in Crescent City and my 2005 Odyssey broke down due to electrical problems. Of course, it was Saturday when it happened. Kyle was very motivated to help me figure out what was wrong with my car even before I brought it in, researching possible problems and looking for parts that I might need. The problem ended up being a failed battery, and he went to great lengths to properly diagnose it and make sure that my old battery was underperforming. He wasn’t even going to charge me any labor, just charging me for the battery I bought from him. Of course, I paid him extra for his time, as I was very happy with the result.
Kyle is extremely ethical, very intelligent, and very helpful. I pride myself in being a good judge of character, and I could not ever see him ripping you off. He’s a class act as far as I’m concerned. I believe that any person could trust him to not price gouge or take advantage of lack of car knowledge on the part of a customer.
Kyle, thanks again for getting us back on the road! We had a fun vacation thanks to you!

My boyfriend & I were on our way up to Oregon. A spark plug blew on our Harley we were able to make it into town for the night. The next morning we called everyone in town to get the part that the plug goes into. Nobody had the right size. We were about to have the bike towed to Harley in Bend when we called Kyle not only did he have the right size he came over to out hotel and had us back on the road within an hour. If you have car problems in Crescent City Kyles is the ONLY phone number you need. Thanks.

My wife and I were in Crescent City on vacation when the water pump in the Jeep failed. Kyle stayed late on a Saturday night (I called just as he was closing up) found a source for the necessary parts, worked clean and fast, obviously took great care and pride in what he did, and got us out the door for far less than I thought it was going to be. I highly recommend Kyle’s if you are having car trouble and you’re in the area.
