The Best Auto Repair Shops in Seattle WA Are the Ones Verified As Safe To Hire

Washington State does not require auto repair shops in Seattle WA to qualify for a license, so there is no state standard for competency. Likewise, there is no legal requirement that services for car repair in Seattle WA have liability insurance to reimburse you in the event of any damages that might occur during servicing.

The exception to this lack of state regulation is Authorized Emission Specialists, which are auto repair technicians specially trained in the repair of vehicles that have failed an emission test as part of the Emission Check Program. Repairs performed by these Authorized Emission Specialists are the only repairs for which you can have the cost apply toward a repair waiver.

But even in the case of state regulated Authorized Emission Specialists, that is still no guarantee that any particular auto repair shop in Seattle WA is doing business ethically, and proving real value to customers.

This makes it all the more significant that all services for auto repair in Seattle WA that bear The Prime Buyer's Report-TOP 10 symbol have been cleared by our research staff as passing all the requirements for Prime Buyer's Report-TOP 10 status such as survey phone calls to previous customers to verify high satisfaction with their auto repair services, good complaint record, verified liability insurance, sufficient length of time in business, only employees legal to work in the U.S., and more.
