Downtown Automotive
We're Downtown Automotive, a full-service auto repair shop in Seattle, Washington. We've been keeping cars, trucks, and hybrids on the road since 1976, and we handle just about everything a vehicle needs under one roof. Our team works on all makes and models, from routine oil changes and factory scheduled maintenance to brake service, suspension and steering repair, transmission work, engine repair, tires and alignments, heating and air conditioning, electrical diagnostics, and exhaust work. We also service hybrids, including high voltage battery testing and replacement, and we support fleet accounts with preventative maintenance and commercial truck repair. When something feels off, we use scan tool technology to pinpoint the problem and explain what we find in plain language before any work begins. We stand behind our repairs with the NAPA Peace of Mind warranty, honored at 17,000 locations nationwide for 24 months or 24,000 miles, so you're covered even when you travel. To keep unexpected repairs manageable, we offer EasyPay financing. We're located at 702 6th Ave N in Seattle, open Monday through Friday and Saturday mornings. You can book an appointment online or give us a call, and we'll take care of the rest. Our goal is straightforward: honest diagnostics, quality work, and a shop you can keep coming back to. That approach has earned us a 4.7-star rating across nearly 500 Google reviews, and we work hard to keep that trust with every vehicle that comes through our bays.
