Provided by YP.comI had my repaired at Fife Auto Repair recently and am a very happy customer.
I finally found an honest Auto Technician.
I had much higher quotes from couple other shops and they beat the price by far.
My car was repaired correctly and quickly.
The shop owner was very friendly and helpful.
He offered to have diagnostic scan for free also.
I highly recommend anyone in need of car repairs.

Provided by YP.comFife Auto Repair performed a "Buyer's Inspection" on a 1987 Dolphin Class A motorhome I was in the process of purchasing from Emerald RV of Fife in March 2009. I bought the RV with their safety approval and with a brake repair, they recommended, which totaled approx. $6100. I drove it home to Everett, WA and later noticed an exhaust leak smell, which they confirmed, when I later called them. Five days later, while turning the ignition, fire erupted from the engine, which engulfed the RV interior, totaling the motorhome. The fire marshall inspection report indicated there was no oil in the engine and the air filter compartment contained about three inches of fuel. I later told Fife Auto Repair of this horrific event and asked for their insurance company. The owner told me to stop harrassing them or he would sue me, then hung up on me. All I wanted was help with buying the motorhome and they told me later that the engine was not even inspected. After the fire incident, I wanted help in determining the cause and all I received was a threat.
Customer is upset with a bad Motorhome purchase which we did not sell. Brake work performed was done flawlessly costing only 200 dollars. No Motor inspection was done because customer did not want to spend the money. She made a phone call due to oil burning smell and Fife Auto recommended bringing motorhome in for inspection and told her there would be no charge even though she declined the work earlier. BUT SHE NEVER BROUGHT THE MOTORHOME IN FOR INSPECTION. Week later we get a phone call about the engine fire. NOT SURE WHAT MORE WE COULD HAVE DONE HERE. SHE LEFT COMMENTS THAT WASN'T TRUE AND WE DON'T DESERVE THAT.
