They fixed a water pump and belt issue quickly and did a great job. Marvin was transparent through the entire process and I felt like I was getting honest answers to the car's problems.
Amazing experience. We rocked up with a 4runner with a ton of problems, Marvin and John went above and beyond to diagnose and repair it, super kind, super fair price, great communication. Recommend this place to high heaven
did an excellent job replacing my rear brakes. The service was quick, professional, and reasonably priced. I appreciated the clear communication throughout the process. Highly recommend this shop for any brake work or general repairs.
I'm in and out of town and needed to come retrieve my car after a move. I needed to drive my car 1000 miles away. They made sure it was road worthy and ready to drive, especially after not driving it for months. They replaced the brake pads and rotors for a fair price and did my oil change, especially considering the fact that i needed it done asap. Car rides smooth once again. They are honest and will work with you. They got the car in and out but not rushed. Very honest people and great members of the community. I would highly recommend them.
Al’s Automotive genuinely saved me I was in an accident in Portland, a hundred miles away from home and had to leave my car in a parking lot while I figured out what to do and be seen by my doctor for the whip lash. Just when I was at the height of my stresses, when I came back to my car the gas tank had been drilled into and my converter was sawed into. I was so devastated, and even more devastated when looking for someone to tow my car and help me fix her enough to bring her home. Other places quoted me thousands for repairs and refused to work with me when it came to finding a new gas tank from the pick n pull, insisting I had to pay top dollar for brand new. I found them on the bottom of the Google search, a few miles from me. I called and was immediately offered a tow and we worked together to gather the parts she needed. They were incredibly understanding and let me leave my car on the lot longer than anyone else would have till I could pick it up. They were so kind and understanding, wishing me well and checking up on me even after I’d left. They were incredibly fair and it was fixed for far under what I was quoted by some greedy places. Beyond that the work they accomplished speaks for itself. The weld work was beautiful and incredibly secure, and the gas tank they installed works perfectly. I was concerned since the last time I’d had a similar experience the gas tank no longer read levels, but they ensured it was in perfect working order and it is! I really have nothing but amazing things to say about them. I plan on making the drive up when it comes to the fine tunes that are to come once the body shop finishes its repairs. This place has amazing staff, amazingly talented mechanics, honest people- five stars really doesn’t feel like enough.
