Masterful mechanic! Tony got me in right away and saved the day after removing my broken spark plug threads in no time flat. Very knowledgeable.

Excellent, said they would have my car fixed in only 3 day's compared to another shop that was going to take over a week. It was done in 3 days. I highly recommend going there!

I've been going to Tony and Dave for 20 years. It's worth the hour drive to their shop. Their expertise has kept my van on the road for 450,000 miles and counting.

A very good place to have your vehicle repaired. Tony is not only an expert in repairing autos. He is very honest in his pricing.

So I started to bring my car to them about a month or so ago give or take. The alternator went out on me. I chose this place because we had bought a used car for my daughter and brought it in for a look and they where super nice and we got good vibes from them. So naturally when my car broke down they where the first thought in my head. I know nothing about cars so I felt like I could trust them. They ended up replacing the alternator. The first one they put it didnt work so they got another one and that seemed to do the trick. I picked it up paid $350 (appox) and I felt like that was fair. I drove it about 3 days and it did the same thing. So now my second time bringing it back they said it was again the alternator and they replaced it with no further charge. I picked it up and again 2 or 3 days later the same exact thing happend. So I called and had it towed back again. This time it cost me $55 co pay with my AAA. When I called I felt like I was annoying them. Definitely felt uncomfortable having my car go back there but I felt like I had no choice because I am a single mom and have limited funds.. I had it towed on a Monday and come Wednesday I had heard NOTHING from them. (At thing point I had even asked if we should just get a brand new alternator vs the rebuilt one put in. I asked this before having the car towed.) So I called 2 times on Wed and they never called me back until Thursday afternoon and told me it was the battery. So I paid another $135 for a battery. I again had the car for 2 or 3 days and it did the SAME thing. So my mom said bring it somewhere else I will pay for it. So I brought it to Finish Line in Rogue River the guy was amazing. He took the alternator off did a bench test and it showed it wasnt putting off enough power. He then took the alternator to his guy who he gets his rebuilt from. He opened it up and immediately saw the regulator was bad. Put in a new heavy duty regulator and I have driven it for over a week now with NO issues. This cost me another $261. I dont want to say they are bad people but they definitely buy cheap parts and I feel as if they acted like I was an annoyance. I will never bring my car back there again. The only reason I gave 2 stars is because they didn't try to charge me more than once even though I brought my car back 3 times. I will attach pictures of the bad regulator. The second guy said in his professional opinion the regulator had not been replaced when they rebuilt the alternator and to top it off it was a super cheap regulator that dont last very long.

After losing our home in the Almeda fire and having to jump from motel to air bnbs. My car wouldn't start at all, Tony said I could get my car towed to his shop so he could help me find out the issue. We expected a few days before he could get to my car and we planned on taking an uber. We have been living out of our car (motels etc) with me, my mom and cat & dog. As soon as we got to Tony's shop, he immediately came out and started testing things under the hood, he comes out with a new battery for my car and starts it right up. God bless Tony and his crew. I can't thank them enough for their care and compassion.

On my trip from WA to NV my car broke down and i was stuck in the middle of no where with my car filled with all of my personal belongings and all of my 10 month old daughters clothing and belongings. my car was towed to this shop and the owner has kindly let me keep my car safely on the lot til i can receive it. 100% best customer service and very nice people. Definitely recommend service here if stopping by.

Very hard to find a trustworthy mechanic. I thought we did. Thought wrong after our second visit to fix the same issue we went in for and paid over $350 and he tried to charge us to( look) at the issue that he never fixed.

Tony did me right! I was in a bad situation where I was being conned by Valley Boys, in that they were responsible for this issue and made an attempt to get $700-$800 out of me. I knew the problem was not a big issue. Tony fixed the problem...under $50. When I know he took a bit of a loss. I am so grateful! I highly recommend Tony's Preferred Automotive! What an honest guy! I can't thank him enough! Thank you Dale for the referral!

Tony and Dave have been servicing my Volvo over the past three years. Always give an honest rundown of options and price estimate on work needed. Quick turn around. Great work at a fair price.

I've been taking all my vehicles to Tony for years. He is the only mechanic I truly trust to give me an honest assessment and fair price on parts and labor. I know that he stands behind any work performed at his garage or contracted out to speciality shops. He has also gone above and beyond for me on a personal level when I was in a time of need and experienced a total mechanical failure. It's nice to know there are people out there like Tony that still operate with "old school" business ethics.

Great experience every time. Tony is honest and so helpful. Only fixes things that need to be fixed. No up selling. I've been going to this garage for years.

Tony was a le to get us in quickly and complete the work quickly, which was great! He communicated what was needed and didn't try and make us replace parts that didn't need to be like another place had tried for the same fix. I found his prices to be very reasonable and will go back there again if a need arises.

David fixed my rear brakes that had been giving me problems for about 6 months. He fit me in on a cancellation and it only took him a couple of hours to do the rear brakes and turn the rotors on the front brakes. I'm taking my car back to David for some much needed transmission work this week. I'd highly recommend anyone talk to David about getting their car fixed here, he's a very nice human being.

Went to tony because my car was stalling and having issues starting he took a look at it and thought it was the fuel pressure regulator he didnt call me to confirm before putting it in just put it in. He also charged me $150 more for it than it should’ve costed. It turned out to be the wrong part and so I did my own research within 15 minutes I found the problem and it was a $5 fuse that took me less than 30 minutes to change with no prior mechanical experience. Will never be coming back to tony after this.
