We give ActNow an A++ they are top notch in our books! Very professional from the first phone call clear to picking up the car. Tom is very personable and kept me in the loop throughout, no work was performed without approval and there was no run around. Extremely happy with the entire experience, would HIGHLY recommend!

These guys took great care of my Crown Vic! They got the brakes done fast despite being down a person, did a full inspection of the rest of the car which was clear and easy to understand (they sent a link that went over every part of the car along with photos of any issues, every shop should do that honestly), and Tom was honest regarding what was urgent and what could probably wait until the next visit.Very good people who did very clean work, and very easy to get along with, even threw in a goodie bag to boot. Taking my first car here was a good choice, appreciate the work you did! 👍

This place is awesome! Communication was timely and excellent. Got pictures of things that needed to be addressed, and got recommendations on what could be put off. And the work was completed early. I’m so happy to have found a BMW repair place in Yakima! Thanks!

I recently took my 2006 Nissan Xterra in for catalytic converter replacement. I had been quoted 6,000 at another shop which is crazy. Act Now did 2 Cats, replaced brake fluid and replaced a gasket in the throttle body for half of that other shop for just the cats. They perform a health inspection of your vehicle and text it to you with anything they find. I will be taking all vehicle needs. Highly recommend to anyone in Yakima.

While pulling our trailer,, the wife and I broke down just outside of Yakima.Our first conversation with ActNow, they were genuinely concerned about our safety and if we needed help trying to find a place to stay for the evening. You rarely get that kind of response from a business these days.. ActNow quickly diagnosed the issue and fixed it fast and we were on the road the next day. Great team members and business. If Im in town with an automotive problem, I wont hesitate to call ActNow.

Very nice Tom was awesome, sent all the information to my cellphone, so there was never any doubts about what they was doing. I appreciate all you do.. and the nice gift bag in my car was a little bonus a couple treats and pen, a few other things. Thank you .

After comparing different auto shops in the area, I finally decided on ActNow Automotive to work on my Audi for general maintenance and a checkup. They were very professional. I was informed about every detail of the maintenance checkup and was given multiple price points depending on the desired services I wanted. The best part was there was no pressure to have anything done. ActNow Automotive is going to be my new go to auto shop! Thanks to the staff at ActNow for the great service. Highly recommend.

They were able to get my van inspected quickly and sent me a list online with all the things they checked and pictures of some of the minor things. Flushed my transmission fluid which was in a desperate need of being changed, and overall I was very happy with Actnow. Tom helped me out and he was a really cool guy.

If you need car repairs I HIGHLY recommend you come here!! My car was making a clunking sound and I wanted to get it checked. Their inspection was thorough and came with pictures! Tom at the front was awesome, kept me in the loop, and made sure I got what I needed done. 10/10, 100%, best place around town!

I took my f150 5.0 to ActNow for an oil leak. They were able to get me in and diagnose the problem very quickly. In my case I was given multiple options for the repair. On the surface it appeared to be the oil pan gasket that was leaking. I was given an approximate quote for this repair but also was given the option to service a common problem with the 5.0 of the rear main seal. This was a more invasive repair requiring the trans to come out and was a bit more expensive. In the end i chose to just get the oil pan gasket replaced at this time in hopes the rear main was not leaking. Actnow was very helpful no pressure on my choice and completed the repair quickly and to my surprise cheaper then expected. It appears i made the right choice a full day of driving around and not a single drop of oil. Ill definitely have my future repairs done here.

I was impressed with the professionalism and the communication backto me during the process. There were no surprises and I had the options ahead of time to approve the work items listed. The price was reasonable and Tom made the process clear. The office and shop were orderly and organized. I had work done on a VW TDI and they accomplished the work on an agreed timeframe. I would recommend them and will return in the future.

Very very disappointed in the service, went in for coil, spark plugs and wires changed, over 600$$ and it started running rough and overheating, I pulled a plug it was set at 62 !!! Same as the rest !!! Factory settings clearly states to set the gap at 50....you didnt set the gap prior to insertion into my engine!! I called to complain and he says he can fix it in 2 months ... really did I wait 2 months to pay you for your shabby work!!! No. BBB will be notified, rip off ........ good luck in the future. And the missing bolts. Thief

Had a great experience with Actnow. I had put off getting my Mercedes repaired for years cause I feared what the cost would be. These guys figured out everything that was wrong and explained what needed to be done. There was no pressure from them to get all the things fixed and the price was really good considering everything they did. I would definitely recommend them and would have them work on my car in the future.

These guys are everything you want in a mechanic! I was on a road trip and going over alot of mountains and I stopped here because my car was given me some trouble. They got my car in right away and looked at it, they werent able to find anything technically wrong with it but did some mechanics magic and my car is running smoother and stopped over heating.. a super great story, short.. they didnt charge me and got me safe to Stanley Idaho!Thank you so much ActNow, you guys are awesome!!

Our jeep broke down while on a roadtrip. They were able to move things around in their shop and get us in immediately. They had the vehicle diagnosed (starter went out) and fixed within a few hours. ActNow was able to save our trip. They were professional, efficient, thorough, helpful, kind and knowledgeable as well as affordable. Thank you for your hard work, integrity and honesty!

ActNow Automotive does awesome work and actually got me in AND finished the same day that I called them when I was having an auto emergency. They have reasonable prices, they are supported by AAA so if you are a AAA member then just ask them about it an will receive the AAA 10% discount. I will be referring all of my friends to them and have become a loyal customer if theirs. Thank you ActNow Automotive!!

Review №40

Finally a trustworthy shop in Yakima! I called around to get quotes and found these guys were right in the middle of the range. They were able to get me in the next day, and the total cost came in under the quote. Instead of trying to upsell me, they told me I could get away with not replacing other parts for a while, unless it became more of an issue. Its been refreshing to work with an honest mechanic after my previous interactions with local shops. ActNow is definitely the only place Ill be taking my car from now on.

Review №41

I usually don’t go to mechanics. Always feel like I am about to get ripped off. However, the guys at Act Now Automotive are really honest stand up mechanics.They provide written quotes, and provide pictures of why the work needs to be done. They aren’t pushy and won’t try to force a repair job on you (try to make the work seem more urgent than it really is).I have now had a couple large repairs done with them and I am confident in the work that has been done.

5 STARS for ActNow Automotive!!!! Thought I was having issues with the starter on my truck and ended up taking into ActNow, was only there for maybe 10min and was soon diagnosed with a poor battery that needed to be replaced. WOW, what an honest company and staff. Could have easily made up an expensive quote for repairs that were not needed but the honesty at this company is rare these days and was very impressed. Thank You Again

Very upfront and honest. Brad was able to work with my vehicle service contract to get some of the cost covered. The repair was done quickly and for a reasonable price. The online diagnostics tool they use sends a link to your phone to see the issues they see, so you know exactly what needs to be done.

Excellent service. Mechanics/Technicians were extremely friendly and very professional. I needed to get a used truck being sold by a local dealership looked at and they were very accommodating with scheduling a pre buyers inspection. They did a very thorough inspection and informed me of a couple of issues with the vehicle that I was very glad to be aware of before I moved forward with purchasing it. Highly recommended!

Review №57

Their motto is Its better here. They are not wrong! They are detailed, up front, efficient and professional. I have only had 2 visits to ActNow, but each visit, I was made to feel like I was their only customer, which I clearly am not. No run around or empty promises on price or estimated time of repairs. They under promise and over deliver. They are a class act. I will also sheepishly admit that the post repair swag bag is a really cool touch 😀

Outstanding service. I was traveling through Yakima with a big box truck heading out on an 1100 mile trip and rear end diff had a bad oil leak. Tom took my vehicle in for repair when others told me a week to fix. A box truck full of tools so no lift to work on rear axle. No problem for ActNow, willing to work on the ground and completed repair in 1 day, a full day ahead of promise. Wow so happy I chose ActNow. Yakima you are lucky to have such a shop. Cheers to Tom and ActNow, awesome. Thank youFrank Baird

Being a woman I hate taking my vehicles to the shop. But, I was made very comfortable with this shop. They listened to my concerns and didnt talk down to me. They worked with me on what was the most urgent repairs needed. And didnt try to tell me that I needed unnecessary work done. I am so thankful that I have found a shop that is HONEST! The update texts and pictures are great. Thank you so much!!! Will be seeing you soon!

Good honest guys, reliable work, fair prices. What more could you ask. Had a faulty starter put in over last winter. Wasnt the owners fault, but he gave me a ride--after hours--and waited with me for the tow truck to show up so we could take the rig back to his shop to fix it first thing in the morning. Good guys. Highly recommend.

Our car broke down on a family road trip. Act Now was able to get us in right away. The problems were much more extensive than expected and required a lot of work. Act Now was able to repair what was needed without up-selling anything. In order to get us back on the road, they even admitted to doing some patchwork that would have to be redone later. They gave a full list of musts and also suggestions and were able to get us back on the road the same day. Thank you!

These guys are the best! I called them to see what it would cost to get my power steering flush done; not only did they come in $50 cheaper than the place before, but they were able to get me in that day. I also told them I was getting ready to sell the car I was bringing in and they offered to do a digital inspection for me with the service. They inspected the car, took pictures and gave descriptions of what needed to be done and when, then sent me a link so Id have a copy to easily forward to potential buyers - It was beyond helpful! I cant recommend them enough.

ActNow has serviced all of our vehicles from personal to delivery. Brady/Owner has proven to be extremely professional in all communications as well as diagnosis and repair.

Ive been taking both personal and work vehicles here for a couple of years now. The work done has been from pre-purchase inspections (which a weblink of the electronic copies can be sent directly to your phone), to glow plugs on diesels, to major repairs. Ive always been happy with the service Ive received as well as their honesty and opinion. They are friendly and thorough.Vehicles Ive taken there ranged from a European SUV, domestic pickups and even larger vehicles like Ford F-550s.In the past Ive hated taking vehicles to automotive shops because I just didnt have a good feeling about them and didnt know if I was getting put through the wringer. With Act Now, Ive always felt like I was getting a straight answer and a good value. Theres a reason I keep taking all the different vehicles I use to them.Thanks everyone at Act Now!

Here at Yakima Dental Lab we have delivery cars that we use to drop off and pick up lab cases all over Yakima, lower Valley, and Ellensburg. We need to have our cars in good running condition so our driver is safe and Act Now has done an excellent job of getting us in and out and back on the road if one of our cars has an issue or just needs a oil change. We would recommend Act Now for your Automotive needs and their friendly staff always makes sure your taken care of in a quick and professional manner.

I’ve had my Jeep worked on a couple of times here for different issues that have been resolved each time. My recent issue left me with little power, so in a bind I knew where to take my Jeep. The shop had a packed schedule but was still able to work on my situation inbetween other services. And with their handy diagnostic I was also able to get some other things taken care of to save me an additional trip. Now it feels like I’m driving a new machine.
