Amazing service and great management. Jason was awesome and quickly found the issue in my tire. I was in and out in about 10 minutes and for only $20. 10/10 auto shop experience
Dude these guys are great. They’ve never overcharged in my experience, and do a thorough job. Shout out to Jason for keeping me updated with repairs.
Jason helped fix multiple issues in my Toyota for $2000 less than what the dealer wanted. Jason and his team worked quickly and communicated clearly about issues that needed to be addressed. As long as Jason is there we’ll be bringing in our cars for service.
Had my oil changed and transmission flushed. They were very helpful and up front, easy to work with, and completed services in a timely fashion. I will definitely be bringing my car back to Jason and team.
I had a really great experience here. Service was friendly and explained everything clearly and thoroughly. They also always maintained good communication throughout and the service was timely. I definitely see myself as a repeat customer.
Wonderful and fast costumer service. Very accommodating and friendly. They take the time to explain the issues and are flexible with your schedule and time. Extremely reliable and trustworthy service and workers!
Staff was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of, work was quality and efficient. Will be returning my business here going forward!
During the last year I have taken my Dodge to Multnomah Automotive for both a major engine repair and a standard oil change. I felt respected and cared for both times and highly recommend this friendly neighborhood shop.
These guys are awesome! I had a problem with a battery install, brought the car back and they replaced the battery free of charge. Great communication, helpful advice too!
Great shop. Knowledgeable, trustworthy, kind staff. Fixed my car and gave helpful feedback on the things to keep an eye on. I will use them again and would recommend this shop to others.
They are the best!!! They could’ve charged an arm and a leg, but didn’t. They are integral, and good people. I’m a teacher, and we had a hard week at home. Mike’s genuineness, and integrity, were very timely, and appreciated. We will go to the shop again and again.
Best place to take your car in Portland. Always makes time for you and does a great job and is affordable. Can trust them to do what you need and never over sells or over charges.
