They did an amazing job on my 2012 Volkswagen Passat SEL Premium. They don't even make these cars anymore. Plus I re built my whole engine I spent about 10k all together with parts and labor. This car sound brand new, plus every three months I go get a checkup and my car. There mechanics are A1. If you need you old school car fixed and any other car fixed, this is the place to go. I spent a lot of money with them so I know. They will take there time and make sure everything is A1.✌🏿 Go get your motor done old school lovers.

They don't give out quotes. Do the work and call and tell me the price. I won't be coming back here.

I’ve taken my Honda element to Best Auto a few times this year and I’ve appreciated the level of communication and transparency with price and service. Recently my family and I got in the Element to start a road trip and discovered the battery was dead and wouldn’t jump. I called Best at 5:30pm and Eduardo went out of his way to pick up a battery after closing the shop, brought it by our place and installed it. He really saved our trip and was generous and kind. Exceptional service.

Prejudice & judgmental. Couldn't even ask a car related question without the staff getting hostile and aggressive about me being in there while saying "excuse me" to ask the question.

My car is a bit of a mess. It's got leaks. It started vibrating randomly while it was on a few days ago. Just always something every new year. These guys are so kind and took it in last minute for me. I was barely out for 2 days and can pick it up tomorrow. I appreciate their patience with me. Not to mention the fact that another mechanic would have taken advantage of my lack of knowledge and asked for more (which has happened many times with other mechanics). I'll give these guys my business as long as I'm in Portland.

Alejandro is awesome! He was able to get me in and out within a few hours on the same day. I was quoted more than two times the price for the same job to fix broken studs. Best auto repair was able to save me $300-$400.

Had a terrible experience here. Eduardo installed an expensive part without my permission. He apologized for this and said “it’s good business to move the process along. I needed to save time so I installed without your permission.. sorry. So sorry.” He had also emptied my engine oil to push an oil change. He stole a fuse out of my car which started multiple electrical problems. He kept my car for 4 days with almost no communication and zero phone calls. He tried to double the labor of the part being replaced and did the job 2 days prior to me calling for the diagnostic! After I got my car out of his shop with more issues then when I started, I took it to another shop who fixed it in less than 2 hours. They found the missing fuse and gave me a free one because it had been obviously stolen. They gave me the synthetic oil my car runs on for a discounted price. Eduardo didn’t realize I stay up on my oil changes. I don’t have an oil leak. So when he showed me my oil was literally gone, I knew immediately he’d emptied it for more money. Then embarrassed and in a hurry he put regular oil in my car to further damage the situation. This shop seems nice and I see some nice reviews but honestly this is a dangerous place. You never know where they cut corners, the parts they break on purpose and whether you’ll get your car back in 4 days or 3 weeks. I hate accusing people because I try to give the benefit of the doubt almost to a fault but I have to write this review on principle for others to know what’s really going on. Eduardo and his mechanics are not honest and do not communicate. I ended up spending $200 extra to fix the issues they caused. I’ll let you decide whether you want them to work on your car but my advice is to stay away. Far away.

TLDR: Jorge and everyone else at Best Auto were awesome and did my repairs at a very reasonable price. I scheduled an appointment with Best Auto to repair a power window and my air conditioning. The morning I went to take my car in, I turned my car on to discover my catalytic converter had been stolen, leaving with them with a lot more work than I'd scheduled my car for! They did the original repairs and worked with my insurance company to get the catalytic converter and related damage taken care of. My insurance company was slow, but they were fast. The cost of all this work was incredibly reasonable and I will definitely be using them again!

I can’t say enough good things about Best Auto. Alejandro, Eduardo and the rest of the crew did a careful analysis of my old (but beloved) SUV, patiently explained what was going on in clear terms, and worked tirelessly to find a solution. It is so difficult to find an honest repair shop with fair prices, and Best Auto Repair is a that rare example of an honest business that does their job very well, and recognizes that a happy customer will keep coming back. I am certainly one of them, and I have now recommended Best Auto to multiple friends and family. They are now my go-go repair shop for all of my vehicle needs in Portland, and I can’t recommend Best Auto Repair enough.

Great prices, great work, and the most attentive customer service anywhere. Eduardo and crew have kept me on the road for almost ten years and it's no exaggeration to say they're a godsend. Eduardo has always taken the time to listen to my concerns and will always explain what's needed, what he's going to be ordering/replacing and why. Also very important to me is that when i do have concerns, he will tell me when they're just baseless worries, that i'm in good shape and have no need for repairs instead of taking advantage of my anxiety. I trust him. Great shop, great crew, great neighbors. Thanks guys!!

TO BE HONEST IF I CAN GIVE THEM LESS THAN A STAR I WOULD!!! When I arrived to my appointment, everything seemed to be in order, I was even allowed to stay in my car which I love the most. My Chevy equinox had cap fittings over the lug nuts which started to strip a little bit not enough to wear it was in manageable cuz I did myself with home tools. After about a good 7 to 12 minutes of them banging on tool to get around my look note which was still a testimony tire at the time he shows the lug nut cap and asked if he was able to do away with it in order to get the job done I agreed, as I'm driving off of the lot I realize my limit is now out of order call them immediately and ask if they could fix it for me or send me to a shop where they can pay for it. they strung me along over the course of the new year weekend this year and then on the 4th day of me calling he reluctantly declined to even know what I was speaking about and I spoke to the same mechanic the entire 4 days I was calling and tried to say that I was the one that messed up my alignment!! IF YOU CHERISH YOUR VEHICLE I REPEAT DO NOT DO NOT BRING YOUR VEHICLE TO THIS PLACE THEY ARE HORRIBLE WITH BUSINESS AND COMMUNICATIONING

Honest and decent, I'll go back for sure. Quick service too. My catalytic converter was stolen. They fixed it the same day, but my truck still sounded bad so I took it back and asked them to have another look. The guy was very pleasant to deal with, they has a 2nd look and reinstalled the CC at no charge -- honest, decent, and competent.

I feel really lucky to have found Best Auto. My daughter was having engine problems with her Jeep, and I asked around for recommendations. The guy at the auto parts store suggested Best, and I'm glad I listened. Eduardo got the Jeep in quickly, and and assessed the problem. He got the Jeep up and running, and though engine work is expensive, his price was very fair (I called around for a few opinions, and no one quoted me a lower price). I've had a few unrelated issues come up since, and Eduardo always goes above and beyond, at a fair price. He's good about telling me if something is safe to wait on, or if it really needs to be repaired immediately. I plan to take my other car there for a tune up when it's due, because the guys at Best are all great, and have proven trustworthy.

I cannot say enough about this wonderful shop. Get us in in only a few days ? They are super courteous treated us like family. The price was soon reasonable. Eduardo explained everything fixed it quickly and really stressed I should come right back if there were any problems. I had such a great experience I would give them a thousand stars! Thank you to all in that shop top quality

If you're looking to save money on car repairs ( and who isn't) this shop absolutely should be your first call. They do excellent fast work, come in right at the estimate, and don't upsell and try to nickel and dime more money out of you like other shops. They were timely, did the repairs well , and stayed in communication. My only gripe is with the parking situation. You have to leave your car parked on the street due to little parking at the shop itself. But a small inconvenience for saving hundreds of dollars. Thanks best auto I'll definitely be back.

Eduardo saved the day and was able to fit me in on short notice as I was trying to find a place that could take my car on a Friday. He was quick to assess the problems with my car and backed up his recommendations for replacing the alternator and belts by taking the time to show me the test results and the physical signs of a worn belt. The crew is fast, communication was honest and the prices were fair. Best part was I had my car back in working order in under a couple hours.
