He runs a good shop if you're not worried about price or in a pinch. Typical mechanic likes to tell you he knows better than you no matter how much research you have put into your own vehicle. I had the top end of my motor rebuilt after lifter failure. He double charged all the parts (Verified by parts dealers) I had a follow up problem he took care of which is always a plus. The one thing I care most about in this world, is my truck, it has a sentimental value, and he made it run again so I'm happy. read more

I love this place. Roy is a hoot, as are the rest ive met so far. Excellent service. Competitive prices. And any time my car needs more than they do here, Roy recommends who local i can take it to. This place is a gem. read more

Always helpful and kind. Family business I am really glad that I found them. Honest reliable people and trustworthy read more

Very honest repair shop. I first went to the Ford dealership and they diagnosed my car with a bad TCM. And it was too expensive so i was recommended 3C automotive. My dad and I went in and got an appointment it took a week for them to actually look at it, but when they did, they found out that it was actually a different problem and refunded us for the part they ordered! So I ended up spending a lot less than I thought I would and that always feels good. I will definitely come back if I need to in the future and I really do recommend them! Roy the owner is a really nice guy too! read more

I made an appointment for 9 AM. They didn't get to it until the following day. They wasted 48 hours of my days off. Clarify when you make an appointment that they are actually going to see your car the day that you make an appointment.. read more

THANK YOU Roy and the Crew!!! Not many things in life are more important than a Mechanic that can be trusted. Fast turnaround on my AC repair and some preventive maintenance work. I feel like Roy is almost as proud of my 300,000+ mile F150 as I am. Thanks for keeping me rolling in comfort! Dominick read more

their a liar he gave me a bulls*** number to call his tow company to have them tow my truck to them which was a lie but that does not explain putting one bolt on the supporting brackit for the rear transmission they set me up so they can say there something else wrong with my truck. I'm a machinist and macniic, so they fucked with the wrong person. And I did not curse out their employees or say anything to there other costumers there not only thiefs but liers read more

Always nice employees. Very thorough investigation into any problems. Great fixes that I have had.

Thank you so much everyone for helping and working on my car front struts..... So much smoother driving, feels like a brand new car ride. Thank you Roy and to all who serve there you are a blessing from heaven . Thank you Roy for dropping me off at home and for picking me up once my car was done. I don't know of anything auto company that does that today, it sure was a huge help and blessings . July 25th, 2024. Keep up the Amazing work. Love your vision for helping all those in need with their cars . read more

I have taken my car here twice so far for two different things. Everyone was nice and friendly. I didn't feel like I was being taken advantage of and the pricing is reasonable. I will be definitely bringing my other two cars here as well for any kind of maintenance in the future.. when talking to Roy, I also learned it's a family run business, which I like as well, and will definitely be supporting a family ran business versus a bigger corporation read more

These guys were fantastic to work with and took care of my vehicle when the dealership could not in a timely manner. Their attention to detail, communication, and price were unmatched. We had our vehicle towed to their facility after a recommendation for another garage (didn't do the kind od work we needed) to replace an Alternator and Radiator. Lastly, as a Cherry on top, we get into our vehicle to find a "thank you" box with treats inside, very classya. I will taking all of my vehicles to them from now on! Semper Fi Roy. read more

On Jan. 27th, I took my well-maintained, excellent running 06 Tacoma pickup, with no issues of any kind, to 3C's automotive (referred by a reputable transmission shop), for a simple transmission service. Super long story short... bottom line, is they installed a faulty filter which caused a low-pressure issue in the transmission. Instead of figuring that out, they told me I needed a new transmission. Luckily, I had a knowledgeable ex-husband to help me and we got the referring shop involved. It was determined, they had installed a faulty filter. FOR A FAULTY FILER, THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION, SERIOUSLY One of many words that come to mind here is... Shyster. What if.. when I was told I needed a new transmission, I believed them? What if I would have told them to go ahead and fix it? I can't help but believe, I wouldn't have been charged for a new transmission. I'm a 62-year-old woman, and alone checking in the truck... What if it was your mother, wife, or daughter, would you trust your vehicle with someone that "tests the waters" to see if you'll pay for expensive "unnecessary" repairs and have damage, that their work created? I was raised in Gresham and I plan on sharing my story with everyone I can. I don't want to see anyone taken advantage of by 3C's Automotive. Note to 3C's, I have cameras installed at my house and on my cars. read more

Family owned, very nice people. They got my mothers car back on the road at a reasonable price. They treat my mother well!

These folks are great! I went in on a busy Monday morning and the woman at the front desk handled it all like a pro. They fixed my car and even fixed a light that was broken that I didn't ask about. Highly recommended. read more

I've been taking my car here for years . I needed a clutch replaced and was given the bottom line quote . The staff is great . And the service is acceptable. Unfortunately their prices have gone up considerably in the last few years . I could not afford their quote . My brother told me to call his mechanic and they were able to do it for $250 less . So even though like 3C they have priced themselves out of my business . read more

Friendly, knowledgeable folk here. Family style, these guys take the extra step to diagnose and fix car stuff. I say car stuff, because if I knew more, I'd probably be able to fix car stuff on my own. Thanks guys! See you next time. read more

Highly recommend using 3C Automotive. Roy and his team are very honest and fast paced mechanics. Also, they quoted me $500 less than the two quotes I got from other mechanics in Gresham. Very detail oriented and professional business! read more

I took my sons truck to Roy three times. He was suppose to rebuild the top half of the truck $2500. The first time he charged me for parts he did not replace. When I asked about he said it was a mistake and paid me back...but the truck was running horrible and leaking trans fluid so we took it back. He said it was a seal he forgot to replace and charged me $500. He said he replaced the battery...but he didnt...called him on it and he said must have been a mistake...gave the money for the battery back. Got it back again #2 runs horribly, miss firing and won't go over 50 and smoking...it is an 8 cylinder that never smoked before. Work is supposed to be under warranty...but he doesn't stand behind his work. He had the truck the third time for 2 months. Got it back ...smoke still and miss fires, runs horrible. Frustrated. Don't go to Roy! read more

I absolutely love this place. The best and most honest people. The prices are great! They are fair and real.

My fiance, now wife, was going here to keep her Saturn running. She was impressed with the follow up calls and thank you notes. This was on top of honest and reasonable pricing. I decided to try the place when I needed maintenance and had the same experience. I never felt like there was an up sell or any of the other less than honorable practices that seem the norm. It's nice to have "mechanic" checked off the list and have one less thing to worry about when needing service. read more

I have been taking both of our vehicles to Roy for almost as long as he has been in business. I never write reviews like this, but in this case I must. I have seen Roy wrestle with tricky problem on one of our cars for a week and a half. He persisted, and did find a solution. I am not ignorant of mechanical things. I have put an engine and transmission in my own car when I was younger and had time for such things. I can usually figure out if I'm getting ripped of. NEVER from Roy. I write this to let you all know, and to thank him for all the hard work. Roy you are great. Thank you and thank you again!! Jim H Portland, OR PS - for me it is not easy to get my car to Roy at 3C. I live in SE Portland, near Mall 205. I have to ferry both of our cars out there and back, and leave one of them there. Then come back in a day or two to pick it up. Believe me, the peace of mind is worth it. You get what you pay for. Honest competent car repair is hard to find. I urge you, give Roy a try. He is honest. Smart, and a darn likeable guy as well. Tell him Jim sent you. He will know who I am. read more

My husband took our sons car here for a pre purchase inspection. Roy was able to see us last minute and really gave us a breakdown so that we could make an informed purchase. They even sent us a handwritten thank you card. They really pay attention to details and you can tell customer service is their top priority. I will make sure I send referrals their way. read more

Really great and honest service. I only heard of them from a charity auction. I bought 4 oil changes that they donated. I came in and they quickly took my car in and we're very kind. Roy really knows what he's doing and doesn't make you question it. He even diagnosed a few other things while I was there for just an oil changed. He didn't pressure me to fix or purchase anything. He just let me know to keep and eye and explained why. I'll be returning as a paid customer after my oil changes are up as well. Thanks for an awesome service that goes above and beyond guys. read more

3C Automotive gave me excellent, honest service with a very fair price! Their quote matched the invoice to the penny (no hidden fees or last minute add ons!). Everyone here from Roy, the owner, to Kenette the office manager is friendly and professional. I will certainly be returning here next time I need car service and would highly recommend it to others! It is very refreshing to feel so trusting and comfortable when having your car worked on. Thank you 3C! read more

As good as an automotive breakdown or scheduled maintenance gets. Roy is on top of his game, he never recommends or pressures me into unnecessary repairs, and often diagnoses the problem for free! The Oil changes he offers are on average $10-20 Less than the regular price Jiffy lube, or Oil Can Henry's job. The only bummer is that you do need to make an appointment. read more
