The problem they were going to have to deal with is that we had a wonderful pitbull who we used to take everywhere with us, before we lost her at the beginning of the year. Her tiny hairs were EVERYWHERE in the carpet, and VERY hard to get out - trust me, I tried! They charged slightly more due to the amount of dog hair, which was completely fair, so I said go for it. They said it would look as good as new, but of course I thought that was a lofty goal... Oh my gosh, we were SHOCKED at how amazing it looks! The carpet looks as good as when it was new (maybe better)! I would never have believed this was possible, but we could not be more pleased! They worked on it for over 8 hours! The price was more than fair, and to say they exceeded our expectations would be an understatement! If you want your car to look its absolute best, we could not recommend E&N more enthusiastically!

When the shop was owned by Mel, I could rely on the diagnostics and work. In November, Had an O2…read moresensor that needed to be replaced (to get tags renewed) and caused my check engine light to stay on. Replace the O2 sensor, light stayed on, diagnosed the intake manifold (much more $$), no change to engine light. Replaced another sensor and everything they could think of, $2000 later on my used car. Engine light stayed on. Decided to run it to DEQ FOR ME (and charged me for the time) so ensure I could get new tags, engine light is still on. In March, car was overheating and leaking coolant, and remnants of a broken zip tie was found in the engine. Took it back in, they assured me that it was the thermostat housing and not having to do with previous work, replaced the Thermostat housing (including the thermostat, all in one), car continued to overheat. Brought it back 3 separate times, for a couple days each time. Discharged stating it was fixed for sure (with paperwork stating same) charged $800. Drove for 5mins, car was overheating again. Mgr said that it's OK for temp to fluctuate as long as no RED. Also to continue to drive it, and send them videos of what is happening because they could not replicate. I know from having the car almost overheat before, that ALMOST overheating and OVERHEATING happens very quickly.continue to drive the car, sent several videos of the car getting 75% of the way up on the gauge, several times. Sent messages. Left voicemails. No resolution. Car has never been the same. Engine light still on. $2800 down on the car without any issues actually fixed. One thing to note: diagnostic fee is NOT worked into the labor and is $200 each time you take it in. Non negotiable.

After looking at a couple different shops based on reviews, we went with Advanced Automotive to do…read morea pre-purchase inspection of a vehicle we were interested in buying (2017 Suburban Premier). After a few hours they called and went over the couple issues they had found and should be replaced which they were very nice and helpful. They found that one control arm had some play in it and should be replaced, the brake vacuum was bad, and one of the window switches auto up didn't work. After taking this to the dealer they fixed the issue and all was well. After driving 100 miles back home we noticed the car didn't handle any bumps or turns very well. We took it to a local mechanic where they found the following wrong with it- Self leveling shock system (air bags and shocks) torn and blown out- $1500 Compressor for shocks burnt out and hasn't been operational for a long time- $1000 Upper passenger control arm causing stability issues and creaking (needs replaced and alignment)- $950 We paid $199 to have them check the important components of a car before buying. Now we are stuck with a bill totaling over $3000 on a vehicle with less than 150 miles from us driving it. Do not take your car here for pre-purchase inspections. These are all common failure points for this vehicle with this many miles as confirmed with multiple other trusted local mechanics in our area. The least they could do is refund this inspection fee to help cover the cost of repairs of a car we wouldn't have bought in the first place if due diligence was done as we trusted it would be.

In short: My advice if you buy from Toyota of Gladstone: check every number, compare everything to…read moreyour original quote, and make sure your deposit is actually credited! Long version: Buying a car is always daunting, and unfortunately my experience buying a 2026 Camry from Toyota of Gladstone reinforced why. I initially inquired about a used Camry but switched to a new 2026 model. The salesperson sent me a link to the exact car I wanted, and I put down a $1,000 deposit while waiting for it to arrive. The deposit paperwork referenced the wrong vehicle, but I was told not to worry--it had been applied to the correct car. The salesperson was sweet, friendly, and never pressured me, which I appreciated. But once I decided to buy, the process became incredibly confusing. I was presented with multiple versions of paperwork with different numbers. The MSRP was wrong. The Toyota-offer price was wrong. The salesperson went back and forth to someone else easily a dozen times trying to get the paperwork corrected. I eventually started taking pictures of the purchase agreements and comparing them to my original quote myself because I couldn't keep track of what was changing. I eventually made it home with the new car...but woke up in the middle of the night realizing they had never applied my $1,000 deposit to the purchase agreement. I contacted the salesperson the next morning and was simply told it would be refunded in 3-5 days. No apology. Had I not caught the mistake myself, it's clear I would have overpaid by $1,000. Overall, the salesperson was low-pressure and responsive, but the paperwork and purchase process were sloppy, confusing, and riddled with errors. Also, I was promised to get copies of everything I signed, but wasn't provided with them at the end of the day. After three hours of confusion and frustration, I was exhausted and just wanted to leave. As I was leaving, they reminded me, "Don't forget to give us a five-star review!" After spending three hours sorting through incorrect and changing paperwork--and then discovering the next morning that my $1,000 deposit hadn't even been applied to the purchase--I have to admit, that request aged pretty poorly.
