  • Max Galos 3 on 5/29/2025

    Always professional and reliable. Great staff. Thank you.

  • Matt Schmidt on 5/22/2025

    Great service! From general inspections and oil changes to comprehensive repairs on three vehicles I was impressed and kept informed throughout the service process. The team at Willands is knowledgeable and personable, I highly recommend giving them your business.

  • Stuart Fales on 5/17/2025

    Awesome shop. They do great work and the staff is very easy to talk to. Not pushy. I would 100% recommend Willands Tech Auto to anybody who needs a good mechanic.

  • Heather on 5/8/2025

    I loved everything about my experience here!

  • Sherri Nelson on 4/19/2025

    Oil change and inspection

  • Lindy Early - Rosen on 4/17/2025

    Thorough, reliable, knowledgeable and friendly!

  • Mason May on 4/14/2025

    Excellent customer service and quick too! Having car issues is always a headache but these guys made the whole situation less stressful, and I'll always appreciate that.

  • James Estes on 4/8/2025

    If I could give a lower rating, I would have. I took my 2015 Ford Taurus into Willands on September 19, 2024. I needed the part under the dashboard replaced that allowed heat focus to be changed (for example from defrost, to het on the floorboard. It is an expensive fix. I also asked how to shut off the "oil change needed" light...and I was told that I had to purchase an oil change to find out ($130) they couldn't just explain the very easy process? I purchased the oil change, and that along with the work under the dashboard was going to come to a total of $1500 (tax included) I told them to do the work, AND that I had a coupon that I had received in the mail and I would be using it. And Erik said, "okay." I picked up my vehicle the next day...expecting that with my coupon, I was going to get $87 off my billing. To my surprise my total bill was $1,536.25 I looked over the billing very carefully. I finally found my $87 in very small print: "PAID OTHER $87" I did NOT get $87 off my bill. It was a scam. I should have gotten a clue when they refused to be decent and tell me how to deactivate (reset) the change oil light unless I purchased an oil change. Ferndale is my hometown. I will never set foot in this shady business again. I learned my lesson the hard way. Don't follow my path.

  • Jennifer Michels on 4/2/2025

    Car was making a weird noise so took it to Willands for a diagnosis. They gave us a list of issues and $3,500 later we picked it up and drive 1 mile home. The very next morning the car was making an entirely different and much louder noise. We took it back and they told us we needed new brakes and calipers even though that was never in the original diagnosis list. They charged us another $1,700. No way was this a coincidence. Never again will we go there.

  • Karin Coart on 4/2/2025

    Thorough, helpful, informative, and all done with kind demeanors!

  • Brendan Mccadam on 3/11/2025

    I appreciate the quality service. Willands conducted a thorough vehicle inspection, and identified the issue quickly, along with some other future repairs. It was determined that my vehicle needed a new battery, spark plugs/wires/distributor and air filter. However for a fairly standard tune up, charging $1500 is ludicrous. $300 for a battery replacement? $400 in labor alone for spark plugs and wires? This job takes less than an hour. Give me a break. I will never return to this business.

  • Robert Brooks on 2/22/2025

    Had a positive experience. Estimate and schedule were in line of final delivery. Also discussed additional work that should be done. Overall, staff seemed to be knowledgeable about the vehicle. It is a Mercedes-Benz AMG model and many shops are unaware of the unique systems of that car.

  • Greg St. Pierre on 2/21/2025

    Above and Beyond!!!!!!! My drive line fell off my transfer case on the way home from work. Towed it in after closing on a Wednesday and it was fixed and ready for pickup on Friday. I am very mechanically inclined but I was working and wanted an expert opinion on weather I had bent the drive shaft. I have a 1989 classic Ford Bronco so parts are not always the easiest to find. The repair was not at all difficult, but they did a whole check of the vehicle and let me know Everything they thought should be addressed. Invaluable information!! Super fast, knowledgeable, and Super Fair with pricing. Could not Recommend More!!! I found my new local repair shop and business!!!!

  • Rick Humphreys on 2/19/2025

    Great service and very reasonable pricing. I trust these guys keep my "classic" on the road!

  • Robert Drever on 2/13/2025

    They did a full inspection of my car quickly when I came with car trouble. I'm currently in Idaho with a leaky rad. Only had to add 200ml of coolant so far. Wish me luck to get to ontario lol.

  • James Hatch on 1/27/2025

    Came by to have a tire sensor programmed. Service was prompt and courteous. Thank you.

  • Beth Brummel on 1/11/2025

    Very happy taking my car here for maintenance. Always friendly/helpful staff. They are great about checking a great number of things even if I’m just going for an oil change. I never feel as though they are doing more than necessary for the sake of money.

  • Patrick Quinn on 1/9/2025

    My wife purchased a 2015 Audi Q3. I wanted to get a baseline for the Audi. Eric and his technician did nothing less than an awesome job in performing a 168-point (?) diagnostic service on my wife's car. I was very impressed with the service that we got. Willands has now secured a new customer.

  • Owen Wright on 1/4/2025

    My jeep was having issues right at the holidays and they got me right in and had it done within a couple of days. Very efficient and honest with me. Wouldn’t take my car anywhere else.

  • J Dev on 12/31/2024

    It was a cold rainy Saturday afternoon when I found myself staring at a control arm, bass hammer in one hand, pickle fork in the other, fuming with rage. It had been 4 hours, I'd put my full bodyweight onto the pickle fork only for it to slip, knuckles scraping on the cold wet concrete. The brass hammer had smashed into my left hand more times than I care to admit, enough was enough. I re-tightened everything with old worn parts and decided to let the professionals handle this one. I've always done my own maintenance, everything from oil changes to suspension upgrades, to engine rebuilds. But as I grow older, I have less and less time for things that I actually enjoy (which doesn't include taking a brass hammer to a control arm with every ounce of my energy), the team at Willands gives me some of that time back. They're reliable, trustworthy, competent, and I'm thankful to have found them.

  • Adrian Cronn on 12/26/2024

    My car is lowered and has fully adjustable suspension. They had no problem getting it on the machine and Bink has extensive knowledge on how to set up a street car. Custom tailored to your needs.

  • Jeremy Karst on 12/20/2024

    Worst experience ever. Thought having an appointment would make getting my oil changed faster, was told it would be an hour and a half. When I showed up two hours later was told it would be 20 more minutes while they waited for my headlight to show up. Came back a half hour later and still not ready. Left without a headlight being replaced, an expensive oil change and no apologies for such shitty service.

  • Oksana B on 12/20/2024

    Good, reliable, fair priced service. Thank you very much!

  • Andrew Jefferson on 12/18/2024

    Great been the 4th time getting my oil changed with you guys very trusting and great help with everything my car needs will be a customer from now on with all my vehicles

  • Marlene Keven on 12/14/2024

    This was my first visit. I had been looking for a new place to bring my car to. I am very pleased with the services they provide. I will not be taking my car anywhere else.

  • Jasmine Russell on 12/6/2024

    Great service. Done in a timely fashion. Where willing to work with me on making payments to fix my truck. I will be a return customer for sure and will be recommending to everyone! Josh Russell

  • bette schwede on 12/2/2024

    The service is excellent. They keep my 15 year old car going strong. Always thorough, people are kind and friendly. They are completely honest and very helpful with telling me about things that will need to be done so I can plan. The waiting room is clean and comfortable. I highly recommend Willands. The location is great, coffee shop, bakery, and other shops are nearby to help with the wait if you need it.

  • Father Mathu on 11/5/2024

    Since getting my Nissan frontier, Willands has done all the maintenance, and always treated me more than fair. It’s clear and obvious that they care about the customer and they aren’t happy until you are. Straight shooters who won’t try and fleece you. The absolute best. My truck is 20+ yrs old and runs like new because of them.

  • Kelli Smit on 10/17/2024

    My check engine light came on, on a saturday, they were able to get my car in on the following monday and fixed and able to pick it up the same day! Excellent service, and no issues after i got my car back! Very appreciated with how they took care of my car and how fast they were able to get it fixed.

  • Rick Berry on 10/11/2024

    Good fast work explained clearly.

  • Travis Evans on 10/10/2024

    Nice shop, I’m happy with the work on my RX350. Recommended.

  • Amy Harman on 9/28/2024

    Honest guys! Les Schwab said I desperately needed new brakes so I got a quote, called Willands also for a quote and Willands came in under Les Schwab. They also came considerably under for tires. They come in under for oil changes compared to Jiffy and Lynden Lube. They get stuff done quickly and l'm on my way quickly. I go to them for all my car needs now that my husband is not able to do car work.

  • Marcia on 9/24/2024

    We appreciate Willands care of our vehicle.

  • Kim Lincoln on 9/19/2024

    We've used Willand's for several years to repair our sons' cars. We know we can trust them to be honest, prompt and safe. They're always friendly and do their best to get us the best prices for the repairs needed. I know we can rely on them to get our vehicles repaired in a timely manner and always do a great job.

  • Blue Ace on 9/14/2024

    Friendly and professional service.

  • David Dalrymple on 9/12/2024

    Always professional. Has saved me time and money.

  • Rebecca Graham on 9/3/2024

    Always such a great experience, all the employees are awesome. I took my expedition in for an alignment this morning, didn't take too long either i chilled in the lobby, while the work was being done. They have hot cocoa and other drinks I noticed, (I had a coffee with me already) My son ended up playing with the toys instead of being on his phone too, haha. They care for all that come thru the doors. You will not regret coming to Willands.

  • Steve Badger on 8/24/2024

    Brought the truck in because of an exhaust issue. They discovered a more serious issue and took care of it. Probably saved the truck. Thanks 😊

  • Hulk King Scar on 8/23/2024

    Experience was very good and appreciated getting a good understanding of the other needed. Ty

  • Timothy Cochran on 8/9/2024

    I had an alignment at Willard’s done on my lowered Honda today. They did a great job and had great customer service. Would Recommend

  • Sheena Wilkerson on 7/31/2024

    These people are the kindest hard working Mechanics. I'm thankful for the trust, loyalty and honesty they bring to the table. Bring your cars here!

  • Brad Watts on 7/23/2024

    Excellent guys to work with and fair prices always do a great job on my vehicles

  • Bill Akers on 7/16/2024

    I needed some repair in a hurry. They made space, gave quick diagnostics and very reasonably cost repairs. Back on the road.

  • Brad Borden on 7/13/2024

    Great service as always

  • Michael Soleim on 7/11/2024

    Willands was great! I needed my transmission serviced and was able to get my car in ASAP, with it ready to pickup same day. The techs were friendly and knowledgeable. I’d definitely recommend them

  • John Hess on 7/11/2024

    Quick service. Friendly staff and techs.

  • Michael Winkler on 6/18/2024

    If you need your car fixed you can't go wrong with Willands. Very satisfied.

  • Doug Cash on 6/8/2024

    Honest, quick, and thorough. Very knowledgeable. They do a great job of keeping you updated on the progress of your vehicle. Highly recommend.

  • Buffi Jones on 6/8/2024

    Excellent customer service! My car was done in a timely manner. Will be back again!

  • Dick Mattila on 5/27/2024

    They had charged a new A/C system (New compressor, condenser, evaporator and receiver dryer). In 6 months the system leaked and they took no responsibility and charged the full amount to recharge the system. I will not be taking my vehicle back to them.

  • C Martin on 5/20/2024

    Willand's Tech Auto in Ferndale, WA is the ONLY Shop I trust my Subaru for Service!

  • Brande Ortiz on 5/17/2024

    Always feel taken care of

  • Abigale Breslin on 5/16/2024

    needed some work done on my car and i won’t ever take my car anywhere else after my experience at Wilands! they do great work and will make sure your taken care of

  • Gary Lewis on 5/6/2024

    Service was prompt. I had my AC recharged after I had replaced my heater core and evaporator core. It doesn’t seem to blow as cold as it use to before I change the components though. Like it needs a little more refrigeration. Other than that great service. Thank you.

  • Breta Brown on 5/3/2024

    1st time having our car worked on, Willand's very professional and super customer service, will recommend to all our friends, Thanks so much.

  • Jessica Custer on 4/26/2024

    Great! Awesome!

  • Denise Burrow on 4/26/2024

    The staff is very helpful.and very attentive to what I needed.Ibreally like the guys who me work there.

  • David Trasoff on 4/25/2024

    Great service above and beyond

  • Jarrett Devillier on 4/22/2024

    The team at Willands is very knowledgeable and also provides excellent customer service. I'm sort of particular when it comes to alignments, they got it dialed in and provided the readout (I didn't even have to ask). I trust them with any type of work on my cars.

  • Trevor Ohlstein on 4/22/2024

    I’ve been to at least half a dozen shops in whatcom county and since finding Willands I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else. The folks at Willands are just honest, fair and always genuinely happy to help. Quick n easy scheduling, honest diagnostics and just quality work in general. I don’t really leave reviews but I always recommend these guys, especially for 4x4s.

  • Denise Ward on 4/20/2024

    I trust Willands because they are honest and are very good mechanics.

  • Rick Humphreys on 4/11/2024

    Excellent service as usual!

  • James Clevenger on 4/8/2024

    Fantastic customer service. Went out of their way to answer question before hand and got the service done swiftly. Would highly recommend the shop and they will be our go to from now on

  • Casey Lawrence on 4/1/2024

    Was told by an employee not to go there .

  • Jon Rockwood on 3/18/2024

    As long as I live in Whatcom County, Willands will be my preferred choice of anything to do with working on my vehicles. They’re always super professional, competitive, and I trust them to always give me the truth and save money where I can.

  • Hiro _ on 3/13/2024

    Amazing, superb, 10/10. I have never, and I mean never had such an outstanding automotive maintenance experience in my life. Marcus and his technician Phillip both provided an absolutely top notch service from the second I called on the phone to when I drove away. (Same day mind you) These folks go above and beyond, exhibiting great technical expertise and providing explanations and recommendations in a way that even a non technical person could comprehend and make an informed decision. The software they currently use is quite interesting, where they go to the effort of taking pictures before, after and of all issues on the vehicle. This information is then scanned and processed in an electronic invoicing system right to your finger tips via email, text or website. This whole process leaves zero gaps in accountability and also gives the end user peace of mind. I'll end with repeating my first statement, amazing, superb, 10/10.

  • David Lindgren on 2/26/2024

    Willands Tech auto provided the service requested in a timely manner. Their customer service provided useful information in a friendly manner. I would recommend them to everyone needing mechanical work done on their vehicles.

  • Jose Lopez on 1/4/2024

    They really understood what I wanted and got it all exactly to my liking! Very happy I chose them

  • Larry Zamora on 12/12/2023

    I paid over 400 dollars for them to tell me my Transmission was bad in my Suburban+ 1 oil change in my Toyota Corolla. When I brought my car home from oil change, all the corrosion on the battery posts they scraped off was all over my engine cover and wires and hoses under the hood. Still had tools left behind from mechanic under the hood. Also hood latch holder was broken off and gone. I only give 1 star because the gal behind the desk was a sweet heart and really nice. The work was overpaid for tho. A 200 dollar oil change to spread all my battery post corrosion under my hood on everything, and a broken off hood holder that I have never even had problems with until now because its straight up gone! Where is it? Im still wondering.

  • kyle scott on 12/6/2023

    Needed to fix my truck and Willands got me in fast, diagnosed the problem and fixed it the next day. They do a great job in being thorough and providing recommendations on things to look out for. Thanks guys!

  • Amy Witt on 12/1/2023

    This review is long over due as we have been using Willands for our auto repair needs for years. Everything from basic maintenance to performance upgrades to “what the heck is that noise?!” The staff has been excellent with all of our vehicles and has always treated us with the upmost respect when explaining issues that are unclear to our non mechanic brains. The service is always timely and any bumps in the road are always communicated. We also appreciate the extensive record keeping that is done as well, including pictures and detailed information. I couldn’t tell you if the pricing is comparable to elsewhere as what we pay at Willands is well worth the expertise, friendly service from all the staff and the peace of mind that our vehicles and our kids vehicles are in good hands.

  • Marie Junek on 10/30/2023

    I took my car here for an oil change after getting recommendations from my neighbors. A different auto shop recommended that I also needed to replace my brake pads and rotors, but the folks at Willands said I didn’t need any any expensive maintenance just yet because I have really low mileage on my car. Service at Willands was fast and friendly.

  • Polly Medina on 10/30/2023

    I as well as my dad have used Wiiands Tech Auto, before he recently passed for all our Auto problems. They are very caring, helpful" even brought grandaughter and I home plus groceries" when my cars back bearings went out recently. I am so very thankful for them taking care of my car the past 4 years. I would refer them to anyone i know,and my friends and family, as I already have!! Give them a try you will be glad!!!!!!!

  • Jeff Evans on 10/28/2023

    Tried to tell me my catalytic converter needed replaced and it DID NOT. When I asked if I could have the old cat they said NO, which alarmed me enough to get a second opinion, which turned out to be a really good idea because the cats weren't the issue! You guys need to listen to your potential clients better -some of us know what we're talking about! Never again, sorry. (Added below 10/28 in response to reply) Okay, to be fair, I do not think you're "crooks' I just didn't get good info from employees maybe, and was informed several times that your mechanics "don't talk to customers". This made me extremely uncomfortable beings as there is a direct correlation between the work to be done and my livelihood/safety and I was not feeling any compassion from your rep. Don't know if it was just a bad day for the person, but regardless, it's an upsetting thing to hear the person(s) wrenching on my ride either don't want to or aren't allowed to talk to me. Then to complicate things further, I was told I could NOT have the cat, not that I could have it if I paid the core on the new part for "x" amount more dollars. The estimate was $2200 for just cat replacement and online I learned a new installed cat on my ride ranged from $500-$1400, installed, and this included genuine Ford cat +installation for $1400. (That is with no core) So, please explain this. To be fair, I do know you've done other work on the van very well, albeit kind of steep on the man hours (when compared to average hours for that job-thank you google for price comparison information). Look, I don't want to slander anyone, I'm just telling you some of your people need to work on customer service, giving correct estimate info, and possibly staying on task to keep man hours in range of "factory spec". Let it be known that this establishment is a solid member of the community with a great amount of respect from the community -so please, be kind to us esp when we need it. Thanks for listening.

  • Nicole Kallin on 10/27/2023

    Friendly enough and was able to make an appointment quickly. Didn't realize it would be $200+ to hook it up to the machine for an estimate. When I paid to pick up the vehicle no diagnostic repair or estimate was given for the cost of the repairs or breakdown, only a receipt for my payment.

  • Aretha Miller on 10/16/2023

    I really like Wilands in Ferndale they fixed my car within one day and even offered me a loaner vehicle while they made the repairs.While they were diagnosing my engine they kept me posted with pictures and quotes so I genuinely knew what was going on the entire time they were repairing the car. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and had great customer service her name is Amber and she is very helpful. I especially like the fact that Wilands has a payment program for the more costly repairs which is very helpful as well. I’m happy with my overall experience when it comes to Wilands. I have a peace of mind knowing that they have a 24 month warranty on any of their work parts included. I will definitely taking my car here from now on!

  • camoran hollan on 10/16/2023

    I unfortunately ran into some car trouble on my way to work last week. I had heard some really great things about Willand's, so I gave them a call. They were able to diagnose the issue within about an hour and within 24 hours I had my truck back and ready to go. It was a spendy fix but that was to be expected as I had to replace the radiator and thermostat. Everyone was very helpful, and they will be the first place I call whenever I have any issues in the future! Shout out to Erik at the front desk. He did an amazing job.

  • Robin Woelz on 9/18/2023

    5 star service. Excellent communication. Was able to get in immediately. I can’t recommend enough. Will definitely be using them again

  • John Bacon on 9/13/2023

    Great service, great staff! The team at Willand’s is top notch. I live in Bellingham and I travel up to Ferndale because I know I can trust them.

  • Simon Ogden on 9/8/2023

    Excellent service! Techs fixed the A/C on my F350 6.4 SLT diesel. Friendly and professional! Thank you!

  • Paul LaClair on 9/4/2023

    Really happy with the work done on my Honda CRV thanks for your advice on all the work done on my car will recommend you to all my friends and family

  • Liz Daldalian on 8/28/2023

    They fixed a coil on my husband’s truck so we could make it back home to Seattle. They had it repaired in under 3 hours and less than $500. Thank you Amber and Erik for the amazing service! Highly recommend.

  • Chris Hartman on 8/24/2023

    A place that knows your name, vehicle, and works hard to give you top service. I have heard they can be a bit expensive , but I have found they are in line with other reputable mechanics (cheaper than the other quotes I have gotten), so I think they are worth it and at a fair price.

  • Rodney Fadden on 7/26/2023

    I had all new brakes installed and 5 days later I’m broke down and stranded in Astoria Oregon with locked up rear brakes. Not a happy camper

  • Yimei Miao on 7/5/2023

    My car suddenly sounded unusual and drove weirdly on the highway nearby. I had to pull over and to find a repair shop asap so that I could get back on the road again. I called them for urgent help. The staff were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. They diagnosed and fixed my car quickly. The kindness I experienced at the shop was paramount. They saved my day.

  • Steven Walker-Jellum on 6/13/2023

    These guys will really bend over backwards to make sure your car is fixed right. My patronage has been secured.

  • Felicia Talman on 6/12/2023

    Great shop to work with! Very thorough. Got our vehicle in quickly for an issue and easy to communicate with! Thanks for your help!

  • Tina Morse on 5/31/2023

    They are very friendly and experienced! Helped me spur of the moment! Definitely will be coming back! Same great service!

  • Valerie Roberg on 5/29/2023

    Thank you, Willands for making my car quiet again! You fixed what others before you could not. I'll be using your services again:)

  • Hunter Hadaway on 5/22/2023

    They diagnosed our problem quickly and had it repaired and back on the road a couple of hours before they said they would. And it cost less as well! We’ll be going back for sure! Thanks!

  • Thom Rees on 5/5/2023

    Chris found my issue quickly, solved my cel, and replaced valve cover gaskets as requested. Two thumbs up.

  • stacey rose on 5/5/2023

    They had my car fixed overnight, couldn’t ask for more! Thank you excellent service

  • Ethan Klos on 4/3/2023

    I have been to 2 different shops to diagnose a headlight issue with no answer and a lot of money spent. So when I called, I gave them all the information that was already done. Granted it took them longer then they thought they didn't stop or give up like the other repair shops did, needless to say I am happy to finally have a headlight thanks to the tech that spent the time troubleshooting and trying everything to fix it right. I can not say enough how happy I am with the service I received and the more then fair cost ant the end of the project.

  • Cindy Collins on 3/30/2023

    Very helpful with explanation of what was wrong and what they did. Also in keeping an eye on my oil usage to find problem. Very reasonable with price. Would definitely use again.

  • Nona Prince on 3/24/2023

    Have been dealing with Willands since 2004 and have always been pleased with their work. Very nice people!!

  • jake white on 3/10/2023

    I came in to get my vehicle assessed for possible engine block damage and I parked around back of their shop since there was no parking up front, one of the mechanics [jonathan] came out and started yelling at me to move. As I tried reasoning with him, telling him I was going up front to discuss my vehicle he started threatening me, so I decided to take my business elsewhere. Very unprofessional.

  • Jit Roopra on 2/24/2023

    low car/bagged car friendly, didn’t charge me extra for a custom alignment outside normal vehicle specs, fast, friendly and willing to work with customer on what they need done.

  • Lyn Hooper on 1/27/2023

    A really good place!!!

  • Ilse on 1/16/2023

    Staff and mechanic very professional and kind, very helpful with information details. A great place to take your vehicle for what ever it needs! Thanks so much for being there! Really appreciate you all.

  • Benjamin Kotlarek on 1/10/2023

    Willands is amazing. Great communication, care for customers, superb technicians. 10 or 10 will use again Erik o n the phone is an indispensable asset. Helped me every step of the way. Made it clear that my car would be well cafed for and made it obviousn that customers were a top priority. This man deserves a raise.

  • swm on 11/30/2022

    Willands did a great job diagnosing and fixing the issue I had with my Chrysler 300. Fair pricing and great customer service! Thank you, would recommend

  • Brandon Dean on 11/29/2022

    Great mechanics at a reasonable price

  • Rick Williams on 11/24/2022

    Serpentine belt off. Wallen’s assessed problem and told me water pump was frozen. Estimate would be over 1k dollars. Then informed me my front brake pads needed replaced. This was curious, why did Wallen’s take off my tires when assessing for a Serpentine belt problem? When I priced the parts Wallen’s said they needed for the repair, water pump, tensioner belt, belt, anti-freeze, they were generally half the price Wallen’s quoted. When I asked Eric about this he stated they “charge a little bit more because they guarantee their work for two years.” After getting the truck back the total bill for a water pump, serpentine belt, tensioner, lower radiator hose ( no one mentioned this until the bill came), and a radiator flush was just shy of 1300 dollars. I feel Wallen’s up-charged for parts, tried to add work not necessary for this job, and charged labor for the tensioner and belt that had to be done when accessing the water pump. In short I won’t be going back and I won’t be recommending this shop to anyone. This job should have cost 6 to 8 hundred dollars. Instead it was 1300 and I feel ripped off.

    Good honest quick work. Bonus that it's within walking distance to both work and home.

  • Ashley on 11/2/2022

    I had check engine light on, they were knowledgeable and welcoming!! prices were fair. I will be returning with next oil change :)

  • Deonte on 10/24/2022

    Great place to take your car!

  • Jarret Stevens on 10/3/2022

    I had a great experience working with Willard’s. I have an older 4 runner that I recently bought. They were able to diagnose the vehicle for problems and ask me what I wanted repaired. I had an oil leak repaired and few other problems. I would definitely go to them in the future. Thanks

  • Jessica Bauer on 9/22/2022

    This place is amazing. They treat everyone that walks in like family and they are always smiling and having a good time. I've seen them deal with some difficult customers, and they always remain professional even after they leave. They explain everything that is going on and if you have questions (and I asked A LOT) they will explain everything to you to the best of their ability. I will continue to utilize this business whenever my car needs it!

  • Ana Jackson on 9/10/2022

    Great service, honest and professional

  • Shannon Rose Phillips on 9/6/2022

    Do NOT take your car here - my car left in worse condition than when it went in. I took my Nissan Versa in to for engine problems and had to take my car back multiple times to fix the work they did. Ended up taking my car elsewhere to fix work they did and they refused any kind of refund on faulty parts. Do not take your car here, especially if you are a woman. They take advantage of people who do not know much about cars. If I could put zero stars I would.

  • Kellie Markell on 8/30/2022

    My sons vehicle dumped out all of it's coolant one evening on the way home from work. Willands was able to get the vehicle in quickly and had it back on the road the next day. I've had sorted experiences with local mechanics but saw that these guys had great reviews so thought it was worth a shot. We were not disappointed. Our family will definitely use them in the future. They were friendly, transparent, patient, and efficient. The least we could do is add another good review!

  • Sherri Lewis on 8/26/2022

    I really appreciated the friendly and accommodating service. They gave me a good deal and my car drives like a dream with no flashing warning signs anymore.

  • Kimberly Keck on 8/25/2022

    They were very kind to me. They made sure my Audi was ready for my 2000 mile adventure. They did a lot of up-selling. I went in for an oil change and they told me I needed a new air filter and my tires needed to be rotated. I appreciate their kindness, thoroughness. Go there!

  • Terry McCarty on 8/22/2022

    Great place to have your car worked on. Quick and professional I would highly recommend.

  • Katherine Cockrum on 8/16/2022

    Convenient and well recommended by neighbors, service was quick and car runs well with new brakes, battery, and oil change.

  • Tyler Allen on 7/29/2022

    Willands has been my go-to mechanics since my first car over 14 years ago. They replaced my alternator back in December and there was an issue with it, so I took it in and they replaced it under warranty. I also asked them to do an oil change since I neglected to do that on time. They completed both before 2PM same day. They always do a great job and always give me good advise. Highly recommend them!

  • Mike Altona on 7/18/2022

    These guys are great. Installed aftermarket headers and repaired an A/C line. Communication was great, service time was accurate. Highly recommend

  • David Nokes on 7/15/2022

    The team at Willands reached out to me via text to check in on how my vehicle was doing. It was perfect timing. We had them change the oil and complete a brake inspection. They were honest, prompt and very responsive. Thanks for the great service!

  • Letha Nungesser on 7/12/2022

    Such an easy, positive experience having my headlights replaced. Super friendly customer service, next day appointment, quick service. Will definitely be back and highly recommend.

  • Carl Olsen on 5/14/2022

    This was my first visit. They changed the timing belt in my 2005 Hyundi. Great service. I will be back for sure.

  • Jenifer Kolbo on 5/13/2022

    5 star customer service, easy to set to communicate with , got me in quickly for a much needed oil change fair priced, so fair I tipped the mechanic. Would definitely refer to a friend.

  • Jesus Carrillo on 5/6/2022

    Got my car back and they did some great work On my car. Would come again.

  • Fly Eagles Fly! on 5/5/2022

    Friendly & professionsl staff. Highly recommended.

  • Danny Stevens on 5/2/2022

    What a relief and joy to see this local family owned & operated business exhibit a first class service that was affordable and in my opinion very valuable to have in your vicinity. Service and quality with good pricing. Thanks Guys!

  • Alisa Dane on 4/26/2022

    Excellent service. My car was shuddering when I drove it, with the check engine light coming on and off occasionally, so I took it in to Willand's Tech Auto, and they looked into the issue for me. It is my only car and I'm new to Washington State and do not know many people, they let me use their courtesy car free for the first day. They unfortunately didn't have good news about my car (transmission issues). I have to move in a month and this news was crushing. They handled it with the grace and kindness that I needed in that moment. They also did not charge me for anything. Very honest and transparent auto repair shop! I highly recommend.

  • Chris R on 4/25/2022

    Misfiring cylinder fixed, tune ups, oil changes…. Always done right the first time, good communication, final price usually matches original quotes

  • Gordie Thomas on 4/18/2022

    Well since you ask… it took two and half hours for an oil oil and filter change which is Ridiculous. No oil filter there to put on and then waited almost an hour for it to show up. Quoted one price and then charged another with the excuse that everything is going up. Oil on the steering wheel so all in all I guess you could categorize this as a cluster.

  • Andy SpaceIsHere on 4/11/2022

    Hands down best shop you can take your vehicle to. They've helped my family and I so much over the pandemic and warranty their work. If you're tired of getting a run around going from shop to shop look no further than Willands for all your automotive needs.

  • Jimmy Noonan on 4/8/2022

    Y'all were very nice and helpful. I really appreciate everything that y'all did. Great job and great service

  • Corrie Lee on 4/2/2022

    Great company! Very friendly and upfront about your vehicle, fixed my trucks issues! Quick service. Highly recommended!

  • Alan Bowd on 4/1/2022

    First time customer. Friendly staff and very fast service. Will definitely go back!

  • Max Whipple on 3/31/2022

    I’m pretty sensitive when it comes to automotive shops because while I myself am not a mechanic, I’ve done a lot of work myself in my cars and am generally very knowledgeable about my vehicles. This ensures that when a mechanic tries to overcharge me for something or mislead me about something, I know it. Willand’s has yet to disappoint me in this area, and despite the generally astronomical prices of the per hour cost of auto work, had quoted me fairly. More importantly to me, however, is the friendly service. There is a pervasive sense of superiority and contempt from most in this industry towards their customers, and even a whiff of it will ensure I walk away from them. Willand’s has always had kind and helpful service and it’s refreshing to know I won’t be talked down to or sneered at when communicating with them. For my most recent appointment, I didn’t have anyone to pick me up or drop me off and Patrick was kind enough to do it free of charge even though I don’t live in Ferndale. That’s not something that is common, and speaks volumes about how Willand’s doesn’t just want another customer, they want people to come back. I, for one, will be coming back and I have no hesitation toward recommending others do the same.

  • Vii York on 3/22/2022

    I have an old beater of a car and the exhaust system was completely effed, but these guys did a really thorough job of analyzing the problem and getting it fixed. The first was way more reasonable thank the other shop I looked into quoted me, and they were really patient with me while I figured out my next steps. Everyone there was so nice and helpful. 😊

  • Chris Hanline on 2/28/2022

    Really good little local auto shop! Very friendly and courteous, and so far their work is held up very nicely. Do recommend!

  • mr mark Estes on 2/18/2022

    The team at Willands installed a complete lift kit on my Nissan Xterra. They were very knowledgeable about the vehicle and willing to do everything needed to make it a perfect job. I will trust them with anything on my X and highly recommend them.

  • Harold Garner on 1/17/2022

    Took my vehicle in, they looked at it quick then said it wasn't worth them fixing and told me to come get it. When I got there they had it off there property on the side of the street next to another business. Seem rather rude. Rude like the lady on the phone was. Would never go there or recommend them.

  • Keith Henderson on 1/13/2022

    Quick, professional service. Very positive communications.

  • Joyce Segal on 1/8/2022

    Tried to make an appointment and they never got back to me.

  • Rachel Long on 1/6/2022

    Williands Tech Auto is five star all the way!

  • David Morse on 1/5/2022

    They know what they are doing! This is my auto shop for life.

  • Tino' Pressure Washing on 9/24/2021

    Excellent service! Highly recommend coming here for your auto care needs

  • Ron Fowler on 7/22/2021

    Wilands tech Auto, If you like honest professional fantastic quality workmanship call Wilands Tech Auto. They fixed my transmission in my Jetta, The bill was more than fare. They also had a loaner car ! No games just great mechanics, and a real home town feel.

  • Ivan Knight on 7/6/2021

    Terrible! Maybe if you have a Bronco take it to these guys as they are cowboys! Willands provided poor service and worse workmanship. When I complained to the owner about the poor state our car was left in he blatantly lied and tried to claim that it wasn't them ( they had fixed a door of a vehicle and put it back together wrong, claiming that they had found it that way and just returned it the way they had found it, jeez, thanks! What a guy! I took it elsewhere to be rectified as there is no way I'd let them touch any vehicle again). Save yourselves the aggravation and go elsewhere.

  • Alex Cross on 5/7/2021

    The new owners are amazing, we took our VW to another shop and they said it would be twice the price and take two weeks. Willands did the work in 2 days! Definitely recommend them.
