These guys saved me in a pinch just a few hours before every shop in town shut down for the…read moreChristmas holiday. I was traveling down I-5 when my instrument cluster went haywire and my check engine light came on. After that my engine was running super rough and I coasted into Star Automotive to see what the heck happened. After some tests they figured out the problem (cylinder specific ignition coil failure on Chevy Silverado) and worked fast to get parts picked up and installed before they closed up shop that night. If it wasn't for them I would have spent Christmas alone in a hotel room in Grants Pass, OR. Thanks to these guys I made it 500 miles to my destination and spent Christmas with my family instead. They were friendly, did their best to get my job done up against the clock, and charged fair labor rates. I can't thank them enough and definitely recommend them to locals and travelers alike.

It is truly unfortunate that after 3 cars, and 19 years of great service while Star was under…read moreprevious ownership I am now writing this 1 Star review. I had triple A tow my car to Star on 10/27/25. I gave them a call in advance and let them know I would be sending it there and stated what had happened. For full context, I was exiting the free way in central point there was a small box in the middle of the road and I had not choice but to slow down and go over it. My car being an Alfa Romeo Giulia sits low and something was pulled out of the bottom of my car and it immediately lost all power steering. I was able to pull to the side at the very end of the ramp. No body damage at all, car was still drivable but no power steering. The tow truck drivers were able to drive it into the flatbed themselves. Zach from Star automotive s initial quote 10/27/25 totaled $10,054.53. See pic and note Quote 1. (This quote will dramatically change once insurance adjuster is involved) 4 quotes later, 2 subcontracted dealerships, a broken fuel module that made my car completely underivable, and no answers from Zach or Austin about what happened. The insurance claims adjuster, the service manager in Portland and the technicians all agree in writing that my car was not drivable when it was brought in and that someone clearly damaged the fuel module brought the car in with zero fuel, and then tried to cover it up ...the technician stated "it was hanging off when I saw it". Zach blamed this entire incident on a recall. Once again in writing the alfa Romeo dealership states this was not possible. I did not accuse Zach or Star right away when I was presented with all the evidence and facts...I called Zach and sent him the email from the service manager who he spoke with and checked my car in with. I simply wanted an answer, and a solution to this issue. It's Friday 4:47pm 2/27/26 my car is 246 miles away one way. The additional cost is $1113.31. I just wanted my car back. When I went down to Star after my phone call with Zach to simply discuss this in person...they said Paul is on vacation and that there was nothing they could do for me. I said I wanted to believe Zach wouldn't take advantage of me knowing how hard things were already finically ....Austin and Zach made many excuses that were not only unreasonable and impractical explanations for this incident but Austin then proceeded to yell at me and threatened to call the police on me. To the owner Paul...I know you are not aware of any of this, and from one business owner to another I am truly sorry this is what your employees are doing behind your back representing your business. I could have chosen a statefarm preferred shop, but due to my past experiences with Star, Dave specifically when he was there I chose your shop. Paul please contact me regarding this matter. I do have more documents and a video of my encounter with Zach and Austin this evening if you'd like to see to give you a full perspective. I will not upload all the documents, videos I have at the moment I will leave a thorough review in full after this claim has been closed out. I look forward to our conversation Paul and I have high hopes that you will make this disappointing situation right. Thank you Hi Paul I appreciate your quick response even with you being out of town. My car is ready to be picked up in Portland and both the shop and insurance claims department need to be notified as to what the plan is. I can not wait until March 20th. The car has been gone since October and I have to have this closed out and picked up no later than Tuesday 3/3/26. I can email you all documents, videos, emails and correspondence I have from the shop. I'm sure Zach has Alfas phone number as well. Just ask for Katherine she is the Service manager. Again, appreciate your fast response and attention to this situation.

My review is almost two years late but I just found their business card and realized I need to do a…read morereview. So I was on a road trip from Phoenix, AZ to Seattle. Things were going smooth until we turned onto a freeway entrance and the axel of our car snapped and we were unable to move. First of all, the people of canyonville are amazing. Long story short, towing company recommended Bill's since they were the only ones near and open (it was around 6pm) We get to Bill's and they're so friendly. Quoted us an extremely affordable price and told us it'd be done by noon the next morning. Perfect! Doesn't stop there; since we are from out of town and have our cat with us, they personally drive us in one of their trucks to a near motel that accepts pets. We get in for the night, next morning we walk back to Bill's and the car is ready to go and it's 10am! All I can say is if I wanted my car to break down, this was the most ideal and smoothest situation ever and that is a huge thanks to Bill and his staff and also the people of canyonville. THANK YOU!!!!!!

These people can be charged criminally for what they did and i intend to pursue at minimum Civil Action against these scammers who took advantage of a poor woman. It wasn't just overcharging for parts or unecessary and not-done work. It was obscene! Example: head bolts: over 300 dollars more than what a dealer would charge for the same item! AARP Fasteners for drag racing would be hundreds less. And that is just the tip of the iceberg. That is beyond price gouging, that is criminal fraud. And the fleeced her for over 2,000 dollars like that.

Travis at Action Auto got back to me right away when I requested a call, and he was able to guide me thru what they can do to find the problem and also that they'll work with me as to repair priorities. After bringing in the car and having the mechanic go over the entire car, being able to have an honest conversation about what needs to be done....everything was explained to me in detail and my questions were answered with care and patience...helped me so much. I found their pricing fair and Travis detailed each item and went over what was involved in repairing each issue. I highly recommend Action Auto. They've been in business for over 40 years and their expertise and kindness, along with expert knowledge of vehicles, inspires confidence. This is my go to place to all things car related.

The big issue with this is that I told KC Kitts the service manager that I had an extended warranty thru Ford Protect. He told me he had checked and that it was not covered . I contacted Ford Protect and was told it was covered and that KC Kitts had to call a certain phone number to verify and get the extended warranty to cover the cost. I told KC this and he kept telling me that my car was not covered. I did end up getting some money from Ford Protect, but not a full amount because Mock had overcharged for the repair. I don't want to go back to deal with them again. Now I have a recall notice for the backup camera, which they supposedly fixed 2 1/2 years ago.
