I was due for new tires on my truck so I wanted to try somewhere within walking distance from my house. Isaac was very transparent and helped me to find the specific tires I wanted along with comparing prices to find the most economical option for me. The service went without a hitch, great spot for midtown Santa Cruz folks.

Isaac at Goodyear has been caring for all of my family's vehicles--foreign, domestic, gas & diesel--for about 25 years. He keeps us safe, fixes and maintains what is needed, and doesn't "over-sell" us.

Such a good experience! Came in for the first time to get my oil changed. Will definitely come back for all services on my Subaru. Isaac also took the time to show my 4-year old son around the shop and he loved it. Thank you!

Automotive Repairs can be frustrating but my experience was Top Notch here. My 2013 Kia Soul oil light and a check engine he fixed the problem and the car is running fine now no check engine light or oil light now for a reasonable price so I had him replace the tires Brakes steering couple and an oil sensor . My suggestion is to Trust Issac and let the professionals do their Job. Prices are fair believe me I did my research. A little money into a car and regular oil changes can save you money in the long run vs buying another used car or a new one .Issac saved my car and it passed smog .My Kia Soul Lives another day.

Roberto is brilliant and fast! A complicated job was done as promised, for a competitive price and finished earlier than expected. The bays are huge with millions of dollars of equipment and instruments necessary to serve any repair needs. Totally impressive!! Highly recommend.

They tried to overcharge my daughter for a brake repair. Their quote was $500 more than any other auto shop. The other mechanics we showed the quote to said "run". And they charged her $100 just to look at the car. They saw a young female and thought they could take advantage.

Isaac rocks. Still awesome. Isaac just saved me a lot of money by doing some extra work. He saved parts where another shop would have just replaced the parts. Kudos to Isaac.

My BF took my car here for oil change, they did not reset my meter so I thought maybe they forgotten it but they put the milage sticker on my windshield bor the next oil change. Took it to a different branch today even if a few miles before i have to do the oil change and when I picked it up, they said that the oil in my car was so black that it could have blown my engine and I realized that's why Goodyear in Water St. did not reset my car. Don't bring your car here. They will charge you for something they did not do.

My sister was struggling with her car and she had become completely frustrated.A friend of mine told me about Water Street Goodyear and how they understand the difficulties of hard problems to solve and they go the extra mile in fixing your car problems and making you happy.😍

They are always friendly, do great work, and their prices are good! I always bring my car here! When I find a good auto repair shop, whatever I live, I stick with them! I'll even drive out of town, if needed & I can, to do so. Good Year Tires & Auto Repair in Santa Cruz is worth my loyalty. 😊

Held my truck for 4 days and didn’t do a thing to it, ended up taking it home with no work done to it.

Isaac (the business owner) was selling a car on Craigslist for one their customer. Agreed over the phone and text for $6000. After paying almost $100 for Uber and being on the road for and hour he said he won’t take less than $6500 for the car. Dishonest business owner dishonest people. Scammers!!!

I would not bring my car here. If your a woman, they will try and sell you parts that you don't need. They will also charge way to much. They know we don't know how much parts are. Thats why you need to do research first. This shop is horrible.

Isaac is a great mechanic - professional, skilled, courteous and honest. I recommend him to all my friends and family. His employees are also very skilled and courteous. If you are looking for a mechanic local to Santa Cruz County you should not hesitate to bring your car to Isaac!

Our van broke down while we were traveling from out of state. The owner, Isaac went out of his way to retrieve essential parts over an hours drive away in order to get us on the road for the Thanksgiving holiday. We really appreciated his commitment to helping us along with frequent updates about the work being done.

Had a great experience getting a car inspected for a Pre-Purchase Inspection. Isaac made it a point to show any issues to both me and the seller in person, so that there was no confusion.

Been a long time customer. Never have been disappointed.

Excellent communication between Issac and his staff and the 130k mile required service on our Ford truck. There was a lot of extra time spent coordinating with the VRC of Santa Cruz with an assited program for Veterans. Issac exemplifies the reputation of the Mr. Goodyear brand of service and quality. A five star+ experience spanning 2.5 months with minimal down time of 3 days.

Great! Every single time!

Isaac is knowledgeable and fair. He is also accommodating - he squeezed me into what appeared to be a very busy day. Highly recommend him and his shop.

Isaac was extremely helpful and had reasonable prices after my car was broken into. He cleaned out as much glass as he could and even offered for me to bring back the car if anything was not to my liking. He was also very honest with his pricing and called me when there were issues. I highly recommend this store and Isaac especially.

Isaac was great. He took care of everything I had asked and then some more. Very fair with his prices and I won't hesitate to use him again. He is one of the very few honest Owner/Mechanics around.
