    Still a great place to be!
    Allen C.

    This auto repair shop is awesome! Very friendly staff and prompt work! I've come to this shop for oil changes almost every time and they have done a great job. There's a cool waiting area with a couch and chairs and there are little souvenirs that are free as well! I was able to cop a sick lanyard and a carabiner. They do a lot more than just oil changes too, you name it, they can do it!

    This place is a gem, you won't find a better shop than this anywhere! My wife and I broke down in our Sprinter van a couple miles from this shop on a cross country trip on the way to our wedding. This shop showed us extreme hospitality and kindness and went above and beyond to help us out while we waited for our van to be fixed. The mechanics at this shop are highly skilled, the workers and owner are genuinely nice people, and the price was more than fair! Best of all we made it to our wedding on time! Can't recommend ABA highly enough, thanks again!

    I'm extremely happy with Brian and the crew at ABA, my Jeep had some issues, the estimate was fair, the work was solid. Much better than going to big box mechs and also contributes to supporting local business in Hillsboro. Old School.

    The hard line between the gray and black is where I wiped the top half of the "new" power steering pump off.

    I recently had to replace both my headlights on my 2002 Ford Mustang…read more After I was done, I noticed that they weren't focused in the proper direction so one day at work I decided to take the car to Total upgrade (across the street from my place of employment, O'Reilly Auto Parts). Chris said he would do it for me and he would drop the car off in the O'Reilly parking lot after he was done (which is exactly what he did). I walked over to him and asked him how much I owed & he said nothing! NADA, Zilch! Wow, he did the work (headlight alignment) for free!

    Worst experience I've had in my entire life. We found this mechanic, based off good reviews and one…read moreof the lower prices we were quoted we thought it was a slam dunk. Came in for a new transmission, broken AC and a leaking tire. Was told it would be a week, which sounds good as that was every time line we were told from other places we called. A week goes by and the parts still weren't in, again I mean that's just shipping and it happens, can't really blame the shop. After a week and a half they install the new transmission, but said there was something wrong so they kept working on it. Another week goes by and they say they need to order ANOTHER trans. At this point we are very frustrated as we needed this vehicle back 3 weeks ago. But I mean who knows what is really going on so we just hang tight. Finally, a MONTH later, we get a text that the trans was replaced and good to go but they didn't have time to fully fix the ac. Didn't have time? You had it for a month and decided until the last day to look at the AC. They replaced the blower motor but said they would have to take the whole thing out and didn't have time for it, so it was ultimately a temporary fix for a full charge. After asking for a price break down he gave us $150 off. Woopie after a $7,500 ordeal that didn't feel sufficient. They then charged our card for the second half of our bill after we explicitly said "we do not authorize this charge" and we also don't remember saying they could save the card on file..... if that wasn't all enough to make us never come back we then find out the tire was never fixed after it went flat on the road a few days later. To which the guy says "looks like I forgot" !!! Now the AC stopped working because again it was never actually fixed in the first place. Truly unacceptable from start to finish. They clearly do not care about doing a good job and just want your money. He asked us multiple times to pay the remaining balance before we even picked up the vehicle or had any work done. Avoid at all costs.

I was told he has extensive experience with the electrical systems of older cars. As I was restoring a 1959 Mercedes 190SL, this morning on July 11th, I naturally visited this place. The job I had was relatively small and manageable. It was only to remove the fuse box and two additional connections, each with only four wires connected to them, from my old wiring harness and replace it with a new, identical harness, one with the same color-coded wiring. I drove over 25 miles and arrived at this shop 10 minutes past 9 in the morning, where I was greeted by one of the workers. He said the owner isn't there yet and will come in about 30 minutes, and I replied, ' Okay, I will be back around 10 O'clock. Meanwhile, a truck arrived, and I was informed that it belonged to the owner. Rob came, and I, with a smile on my face, said good morning to him. His answer was, "Why are you here?" We open at 10 AM. I said, 'If you want, I can come back at 10?' He asked why I was there. I explained and acknowledged that this should be a tiny and easy job for him. At the same time, I told him that, as a restaurateur and chef, one of my former customers who has a dealership in Hillsboro had recommended him. He spoke in a coarse voice and angrily looked at me, saying, 'No, it's not a small and easy job. You grab a few ingredients and put them on top of each other, and then you call yourself a chef.' It is a tremendous job. And at the same time, he said we are not working on any car older than the 1980s. I told him that, less than a month ago, someone on your Google Business page reviewed that you worked on his 1970 Chevelle Malibu. This time, he said to write down what car I have so he will find me another mechanic. I told him what my car was, and this time he came to the door and asked me to leave, repeating that he would find another person for me and contact me. I wondered and asked how he would do it without knowing who I am or my phone number. Anyway, I left and the only impression I got from this place and Rob is that the color of your skin, your hair, and your accent play an essential role in whether he accepts you as a new customer and does business with you or not. If Rob had been honest and refused to do my job because it was small or he was swamped, rather than the way he acted, I would have thanked him and left without giving him any bad reviews. However, he decided otherwise. If I knew that, I would never go to this rundown mechanic shop.

    Like many of us, I don't have a lot of time to give either good or bad reviews to businesses or…read morepeople online, but with Tim @ AATCO Transmissions I had a superb experience worth sharing. To keep the story short: I know almost nothing about motors/transmissions cars/trucks etc. I build homes but when it comes to the vehicles I drive I'm clueless. Because of my ignorance I have been the unfortunate target of automotive mechanic scams in the past -- some proven to be and others that have just left me feeling icky after signing my credit card receipt. Regardless, I'm probably an easy target. I came to Tim because I thought my transmission was slipping in my 1989 OBS Ford F-250. I love this truck -- had it for more than twenty years as it was given to me by my father. A new transmission cost would probably cause me to lay this thing to rest. Tim asked for me keys and drove it around town for about 15 minutes before returning. He smiled, waved down a mechanic of his, and had him look under the hood and confirm his suspicion. The fan clutch was bad -- a simple part that someone handy with tools could do on their own pretty simply -- he pointed out. I asked him how much -- he said "I don't do them." He does transmissions. He walked me through the process, smiling and joking the whole time, and convinced me I was capable of the work. I should have given him a great hug -- but a more masculine handshake would do. :-) I went to NAPA and for I think around 80 dollars I got the new part, did what Tim told me to, and now have a beautifully running truck again. Great experience! Thank you to Tim and his Crew at AATCO. :-) May God Bless you for looking after your neighbors. -Peter
