I have been going to McCollum for Almost 15 years. They have taken care of 5 of my vehicles during this time. As a Portland business owner, I am very inquisitive to what service they are providing and what the process was with my trucks and cars. I will honestly say, they are top notch. They put a new engine in my 2014 Ford twin turbo Explorer, and have basically rebuilt my 2001 F-350 Diesel Lariat.These are not easy vehicles to work on. Reed Strong has been my contact person through the years. His knowledge is exception. His integrity is solid. Plus, you can share a laugh with him if so inclined. The mechanics under his wing are hardworking and diligent, and always willing to go the extra mile. Tasha has been a great addition to the company and, hopefully, you’ll meet her at the front desk if you decide to visit them for vehicle service. Pay them a visit. You won’t be disappointed.

I can’t say enough good things about Andrew and the team at McCollum Automotive. I have a 2018 Porsche Panamera and had already taken it to another shop that basically told me they couldn’t figure out what was wrong. I left feeling frustrated and honestly stressed. Finding McCollum Automotive was such a blessing. Andrew took the time to properly diagnose the issue, explain everything clearly, and made me feel confident that my car was in the right hands. They were incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and thorough — especially with a high-end vehicle like a Porsche. It’s hard to find shops you can truly trust, and I 1000% trust them. If you have a vehicle that needs real expertise and honest service, this is the place to go. I would absolutely recommend bringing your car here. Thank you again, Andrew!

I have been taking our family cars to McCollum for over a decade and a half. Through several staff changes, they have remained consistent at providing quality service at reasonable rates, not upselling nor over promising. They are very busy these days but I continue to find they go the extra mile to be attentive and handle the care for my vehicles.

Andrew is my neighbor and fixed an ongoing ABS issue with my jeep. I had been taking it to the dealer over months, multiple times and they could not figure it out. It only took him 2 hours to diagnose, repair and get me back on the road. Thanks Andrew for your critical thinking skills!

My van died at the intersection right next to this place, and the whole team inside came out to help me push it out of traffic. Andrew worked with me on diagnosing an issue it had (that another shop has missed entirely) and was super transparent with what was wrong with it. I'm planning on bringing my vehicles for repair work here after how well they treated me this past week.

Reasonable oil change. They found some additional work that needed to be done. They worked with me to focus on the critical issues to save a little money. They got the job done on time.

Tosha is absolutely the sweetest person ever! She’s so kind, patient, and always willing to help with anything I need. She takes the time to answer all of my questions and makes everything so easy to understand. You can tell she truly cares about people and goes above and beyond every time. I’m so grateful for her help!

McCollum mechanics had their hands full with my car repair. It was having obvious idle problems but not throwing a code. The car's computer didn't register a problem. They stuck with this repair until it was complete. I've owned this car for 20 years and they were the most attentive and determined mechanics I've run across for the many times I've had my car in the shop. Thanks McCollum!

They are professional and easy to approach. I towed my truck there not having any knowledge of the operation, as a customer. They were understanding and willing to take my work and completed all the required services to get me back to driving again. The performed many upgraded repairs and even when I added additional requested services they were easily open to completing all those extras. And the work was very well done. They are a Top Of The Line, operation. 5* stars.

Broke off temp sensor and did not say word. I spent $6000 there last year and will not be back, Tech called and offered to fix it after seeing this. I will give them another chance. Mistakes happen and they have attempted to make good.

The worst. They overcharge, but whats worse is absolutely messed up my car by putting bad spark plugs and coils in. Had to take to another mechanic to fix. They did not help at all until the other mechanic pushed that McCollum should take responsibility for thier bad job....I had to fight them to fix it for days... they finally redid the work but my car sounds not good still.

Top above the line with skilled 4x4 trained mechanic and excellent productive shop. They repaired my truck after winter damages wore the bearings and seals and got me in , even when they were backed up with lots of other truck repairs to complete. Then, I added more work with schools and brakes to do as well they just kept at it and got it all done. So are, everything is working great. Truck is rolling and stopping and the waiting was hard but once they got to me they were quick and steady at getting me fixed and on the road. I will return here Everytime. They had a full shop and fit me in, then got everything done. And the changes the oil . So thanks. Will be back.

I have always received excellent service here and I have come to expect nothing less. I came in for an oil change and they offered to rotate my tires for free! I know that I will be treated fairly and that they will not try sell me on unnecessary repairs. If I ask for an oil change that is what I get. As a woman it is great to have a place where I feel confident that they will take good care of my vehicle without trying to up-sell me. Thanks again for the great service!

Failure to diagnose my transmission issues led to a very scary situation for myself and my family. The owner has assured me they are not at fault, and also that they don't need my business. I would not recommend them to anyone looking to ensure their family vehicle is safe to drive.

I have been a customer of McCollum for over 20 years and it's very sad that the business was sold to a national service that is tarnishing the family name. My Chevy Equinox wouldn't start, after holding vehicle for weeks they replaced battery, we paid and picked up, but next day same problem, wouldn't start. Return it second time, after weeks of waiting they replaced alternator over $1200 for both events. Waited over 20 minutes to be acknowledge when picking up the vehicle. Next time driving same issue! Towed it to another shop and they found problem was key fab the same day and repaired it within days. Sent request to McCollum for partial refund but they replied that they did nothing wrong, saying I only stated it wouldn't start. They left out the details in my description of how the car was acting, which included an issue with the key. Will never return to McCollum for service.

Awesome shop. Prices are spot on(best quote i got in town to do upper/lower ball joints as well as u joints) Service was completed in a timely manner with a professional business interaction. Picked up my truck and was suprised that they washed it and vacuumed the carpets. I will most certainly be back for any repairs. Thank you Reed.

Received a flyer in the mail for a $26 oil change, thought "hey, that's a good deal for these guys. They do a good job." Flyer said to call and make an appointment so I did just that. Guy on the phone was nice and we settled for 3pm thursday. Arrived 5 minutes before my scheduled time to learn they don't accept appointments and that I wouldn't get in all day. Really messed up my schedule for the weekend. They've done good work when I go there but because of this incident I will be using another shop for my services. Wasn't great but wasn't horrible, thus the 3 stars.

Most of my 1975 Taurus wagon upkeep and repairs are done at McCollum Automotive. I like that a record is kept of past upkeep or repairs. Saves me from keep receipts in a file. Mike or anyone answers my questions without making me feel foolish. When I don't understand, they're very patient answering me in terms I understand. I appreciate this McCollum Team and recommend them often. Adding to the above review of 8 months ago. "Mike gives me the confidence of taking care of my 1995 Ford Taurus." Extra repairs are not tacked on to the original visit. Yet, I get the knowledge of the overall performance of the vehicle. Not only do I get what needs to be fixed in order of performance, but also what's right with the car. I thank McCollum Auto for being honest and thorough.

Honest and trustworthy folks. I have taken two older model vehicles to them and they made me feel safe driving them again. Will return for any future work needed.
