Sent my daughter who is a student at OSU to get oil change for her Toyota Prius. She had never done this before and it was easy, they were helpful, they did it quickly, and pricing is better than toyota dealer. read more

Richard is everything you want in an auto mechanic. He's an amazing diagnostician. People come see him from far afield because of his ability to actually figure out what's wrong rather than just replacing parts. Richard is also honest. That's also a must-have. Richard takes pride in his work, and he does a quality job. His prices are competitive. Well, I presume they are; I haven't been to another mechanic in years since I started using Crossroads all those years ago. I can go with a big list of things I think need to be done, and Richard will tell me which ones I don't need to do. Another mechanic would just do them all and also tell me I needed to change my cabin air filter and muffler fluid. If you have a Volkswagen, a Fiat or a Buick, you're out of luck. Crossroads specializes in Japanese vehicle repair. Richard is a Toyota specialist, and some of his staff are mavens with Subaru. read more

The folks at Crossroads really helped me out of turmoil. I was visiting Corvallis from Seattle and multiple engine lights came on. They told me to come on in as soon as I could, determined the cause, provided great insight into the inner workings of my Subaru and put my mind at ease. Their kindness and professionalism was exemplary and I made it back to Seattle with no more lights. Thank You! read more

We are retirees on a fixed income. We were charged $5,000 for engine work. When we returned later (because the job had not been done correctly), Richard accepted the car, and let it sit for 2 1/2 MONTHS, while his warranty expired. Job never finished, just ripped off for $5,000. read more

What is the first thing you think about when you're looking for someone to service your car "Can I trust them?" I took my car in for repair and the experience was phenomenal. I can't say enough about Crossroads. Richard is transparent and honest with you about what needs to be repaired. If you are looking for an automotive place that operates with integrity, I highly recommend Crossroads Foreign auto repair. read more

It is a little off the beaten path and doesn't look like much, but the people are very fair. I had a CV boot cover (cover was fine, but the little clamp was missing) that the Toyota dealer wanted hundreds of dollars to replace on an '05 Sienna. It was not torn and the insides were not soiled - but Toyota won't sell just a clamp. So... $30 later Crossroads installed a clamp while I had it over for an oil change. No big deal. They are practical about what they will tell you to do - would definitely recommend. read more

Crossroads just finished rebuilding my Subaru engine. They took considerable care in double and triple checking the install and it gave me a lot of confidence. Communication could have been better but they are busy and were still friendly on the phone when I called for updates. Would go back (hopefully won't have to!) any time. read more

So thankful to have found Crossroads. My daughter goes to school at OSU and we have found the mechanic to take care of her car in Corvallis. Thank you Richard for being reasonable and honest. My daughter's 15 year old Honda is in great hands. read more

I've brought my Subaru in on multiple occasions for maintenance and repair ranging from routine oil changes to the replacement of my clutch. Richard has always been able to diagnose the problem, going above and beyond to complete the repair in the fastest and most cost efficient manner (much less expensive than the Subaru dealership service center). He also happens to be one of the nicest people I've come across. Strongly recommend if you're looking for an honest mechanic you can trust. read more

I think everyone can agree that a good, honest mechanic is worth their weight in gold. If you happen to be fortunate enough to live or break down in the Corvallis area, Richard is your man! When my car started making evil sounds on my way south from Seattle, I limped into his shop after reading the good reviews. Although he was swamped with work (three people brought cars in while I was there talking to him!), he quickly diagnosed the problem as a damaged water pump and worn drive belt and promised to get it done as soon as he could get a replacement pump in. It was ready to go the next day. While he was at it, I had him do a bunch of other maintenance that I'd been putting off. When I picked the car up and he gave me the final price I was shocked in a happy way. Not only is Richard professional, efficient, fast, and all for a very honest price, but he's also a really nice man who is clearly loved by his neighbors in Corvallis and anyone who happens to drop their car off with him. I don't think I'd ever left a mechanic's shop with a grin until I met Richard. Almost worth the trip down from Seattle just to leave my car in his hands. Thank you Richard! read more

When my 17 year old Mazda started running rough, I asked around to try to find the best mechanic in Corvallis. Folks I talked to overwhelmingly recommended Richard at Crossroads. So I decided I'd try him. I'm here to tell you he is indeed the best mechanic in town. He is honest as the day is long, his prices are extremely reasonable, and he goes the extra mile. Plus my vehicle now runs just like it did when I purchased it from my Mom 7 years ago. I will certainly be doing business with Richard and the future, and I recommend that anyone who sees this do the same! read more

When my son's alternator died and his car was parked on campus Richard not only fit his car into his schedule that day but stuck to his original repair estimate for the final bill. My son had his car back at the end of his classes. Thanks Richard! read more

I recently took my VW took Richard at Crossroads for a minor repair, although he normally specializes in Toyotas and Subarus. However, he was highly recommended to me. Basically, he removed the skid plate that was falling off, kept all the parts for me in case I wanted them, and didn't charge me! I am so used to getting ripped off by auto mechanics and VW dealerships (not the local one) that it was such a refreshing change of pace. I plan on getting rid of my VW anyway, and getting either a Toyota or Subaru, so I will definitely be coming back for any future repairs needed. This is what being a good, honest auto mechanic will get you: a high recommendation and repeat business! He even met me at my convenience to pick up my vehicle on a Sunday evening. read more

My little '99 Subaru Forester received awesome service here! I'm thrilled to have stumbled upon a terrific mechanic conveniently located in South Town Corvallis! read more

I have an older Toyota and took it to these guys, had to take it back to them a second time. The job seemed beyond their skill set. They did charge responsibility for the work they did, but may not have been needed, but I didn't get my issues fixed. I was looking for some Toyota experts that could find out what was going on and they didn't seem to add to the conversation and fix. I had to take it to another shop in Corvallis. I didn't feel like I was being scammed, they were nice, but they couldn't get the job done. read more

I cannot even begin to say enough good about what Richard, Aaron, and his team do at Crossroads! I met Richard almost 7 years ago and immediately knew he was different than any mechanic I've ever met; I have never gone anywhere else and never will. If my car ever broke down I would literally push it 100 miles just to get it to his shop -- lucky for me Richard keeps my car running so I won't be doing that anytime soon. He really does treat my wife and I like family. He is trustworthy and he will bend over backwards to ensure he finds you the best deal on parts to save you money. I wish everyone dealt with people the way he does. It is truly rare and truly amazing! If you need auto repair and don't check him out you are not getting the service you deserve. read more

These guys are awesome! Best price in town and had next day appointments. I would recommend them to everyone. They were not trying to up sell anything and were so comforting in letting me know my car wasn't in bad shape as I was freaking out about it. read more
