The largest and most well-established full-service shop on Kodiak Island. While not a Hyundai-exclusive specialist, they are the primary service center for all makes and models on the island and have technicians with training and experience on Hyundai's common issues. They handle everything from routine maintenance to complex engine and transmission work, and are the de facto option for warranty-adjacent diagnostics before a customer travels to an official dealer.
A highly reputable, smaller shop known for its diagnostic expertise and ethical service. They are often recommended for complex electrical and drivability issues. They have invested in modern scan tools capable of interfacing with Hyundai/Kia advanced systems (including ADAS), making them a strong choice for pre-dealer diagnostics for Theta II or SmartSense concerns.
A unique provider that combines basic automotive service with its core aviation business. For Old Harbor residents, they are crucial for coordinating the shipment of parts and vehicles via air freight between Kodiak and the village. They perform essential maintenance and repairs and are a critical logistics link for getting a vehicle to/from specialized service in Anchorage.
** The Hyundai repair market for Old Harbor residents is essentially non-existent locally and is part of the broader, constrained automotive service ecosystem of remote Alaska. All specialized service (Theta II warranty work, DCT service, Hybrid/EV, certified ADAS calibration) requires travel to **Anchorage** (a ~1-hour flight from Kodiak). The nearest Hyundai dealership is **Kendall Hyundai of Anchorage**. On Kodiak Island, general repair shops like Kodiak Automotive and Integrity Automotive provide competent diagnostic and repair services for common Hyundai issues (GDI carbon buildup, basic turbo work) and are the first line of defense. Pricing is significantly higher than the national average due to the cost of shipping parts and the lack of competition. For Old Harbor residents, costs are compounded by the need for inter-island air or barge freight (coordinated through entities like HASCO) to get a vehicle to Kodiak. The typical process for a major specialized repair involves: 1) Diagnosis on Kodiak, 2) Ordering parts (1-2 weeks), 3) Possibly flying the vehicle to Anchorage for warranty or highly complex work. This reality makes comprehensive mechanical insurance or a factory warranty with trip interruption benefits highly valuable for Hyundai owners in this region.
