AAA has also recognized our repair shop because we can fix almost any problem that can go wrong with your vehicle. We have extensive experience working on leading brands of cars, SUVs, vans, trucks, and more. If you are having a problem that we have not dealt with in the past, we will usually be happy to take the time to learn how to complete the repair that you need.

In the aftermath of an accident or other damage to your vehicle, we will work to promptly fix your problem so that you can minimize disruptions to your life. Since our shop has been certified by AAA, we can also easily work with you if you have to get your vehicle towed to our shop by the AAA network.
Our shop is committed to helping customers get the latest solutions while doing our part to help the environment. As a result, we have started to offer air conditioning solutions that rely on new R1234yf refrigerants that have less potential to harm the environment than conventional refrigerants. Although there are few vehicles that continue to use Freon, a refrigerant that has been proven to damage the ozone layer, the standard R134a refrigerants that have replaced Freon have also been shown to have the potential to harm the environment.
Studies have shown that R134a has a high global warming potential, and it can contribute directly to the emission of greenhouse gasses. Consequently, vehicles that rely on R124a will fail to meet the European Union's directives on greenhouse gasses that went into effect in 2017, and they will increasingly be banned from other countries as time goes on.

Kadotani Auto Repair has been in business for over 38 years! David and Jeanni Kadotani have built a great reputation for caring greatly about their customers and the vehicles they drive. After all those years, David and Jeanni have finally decided to retire and enjoy some much needed family time and tandem bike rides. David and Jeanni wanted to be sure that the customers they have built a long term relationship with were in good hands when they retired, so who better to take care of them than someone who has actually been working on their cars out in the shop? That’s where the new owner Kellen comes in.
I know our customers will be in great hands with Kellen running the business. He knows what he is doing, is young and very up to date with late model vehicles and the heavily computer based knowledge needed to diagnose many of today’s intricate systems. Jeanni and I want to thank everyone for the decades of support and we will still be around so you might find us on the bicycle! - David Kadotani
