Overdue review from this past January. Our son had recently moved into the area and didn't know…read moreany good repair shops. We flew in to Portland from Hawaii to help him move. We chose this shop due to Yelp's 5 star reviews and were not disapppointed. Our son's car needed the basic oil/filter change, rotate tires, brake checks, and the transmission fluid replaced. We also had a busy schedule and we're not able to pick up the car before they closed. They suggested we pay the bill over the phone and we arranged to have the car parked and locked in their parking lot (since we had a set of extra keys); which was perfect. At least our son now has a shop he can depend on for future maintenance; which will be soon. :)

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.

After a summer of hauling and few trips across the state I wanted a transmission fluid change. I…read morecalled this business and they said that they do perform that service so I went there. Didn't know there was one closer to me but maybe next time. When the weather gets warmer in spring I may crawl under the truck and do the filter as well. I consider the time they took to get it right and complimentary beverage offer while I waited for them to do their work. I think the price is worth the piece of mind for a once in awhile fluid replacement until next spring. Good job by the crew and good attitudes for a thankless job. I recommend them Dodge Ram diesel

You stay in the car while they do your oil change, which is a huge plus for me. At the moment they're spraying and cleaning something under my hood. They also show you all the additional things that you could add. And they'll explain what each thing does or what it's for with no judgment if you say no. It's really funny because I went to two different oil places a couple days ago and they weren't able to serve me- one because their payment system was down and the other because they didn't have my oil. I guess that was the universe telling me that I needed to find oil stop and just get it done here. OK, so they actually clean a bunch of stuff under your hood which they explained to me. They literally explained all the things to you, which is so so nice. I am so happy I found this place.

It has been about six months since I last brought one of my vehicles to JC Motors. I wanted to wait…read morebefore updating my review so I wasn't writing it while irritated. I was a loyal customer for years. Tom and Pat built an incredible shop. They knew their stuff, stood behind their work, treated customers with respect, and earned every bit of the reputation they had. I was genuinely happy for them when they retired. Unfortunately, the shop they left behind just isn't the same. Since the ownership change, I've had one frustrating experience after another, and almost all of them have involved the front office. One visit was for squeaky brakes. They inspected everything and told me my brake pads had plenty of life left and that the caliper design on my vehicle can squeak under light braking. Weird, but okay. I understood, thanked them, and hung up. A few minutes later, I got another call from the supervisor because apparently the first advisor didn't think I understood. I assured him that I did. I understood the explanation the first time. Getting called back just so someone could explain the exact same thing again felt incredibly condescending. Then came the A/C issue. My A/C makes a loud hissing noise through the vents whenever the compressor is running. They found it was low on refrigerant, added dye, and the noise disappeared... for about two days. When it came back, they cleaned a vent actuator even though they admitted it wasn't the problem. Then they told me the noise only happened when the climate control was set to Auto and suggested I just not use Auto. I explained, again, that it happened in Auto, Manual, and Defrost. Basically, anytime the A/C compressor kicked on. Their response? "Then just use Auto." At that point, I realized we weren't having the same conversation. The one person who absolutely deserves recognition is the woman who came outside afterward to talk with me. She listened, understood why I was frustrated, and treated me like a human being instead of someone who needed the same explanation repeated three different ways. She was professional, empathetic, and honestly the only reason this review isn't even lower. JC Motors isn't the shop it used to be. I no longer trust them with my family's vehicles, and I can't recommend them to friends or family anymore. I sincerely hope Tom and Pat are enjoying retirement. They built something special. I just wish that same standard of customer service had survived the ownership change.

I've been putting this updated review off for a while. I stopped going to Tigard Premier years ago…read morebecause of bad business practices. They used to have good mechanics but scared them all away it seems. One of the last times I had my car worked on, a mechanic came running out and was twitching. He was pale as a ghost and looked like he was on some serious meth. I believe in Equal Employment Opportunity but some people should be clean when working on vehicles because it can be dangerous. Case in point, I believe he is the one who worked on my vehicle. Fluids were all overfilled and I kept getting error codes lighting up my dashboard. Car never worked right after that. I kept bringing in my vehicle to have it looked at to no avail. Chris and Patrick would basically shrug their shoulders to my situation. I feel like they give better treatment to new cars than older ones. I'll give Chris a little credit because he tried to fix it himself and didn't charge me but in the end I had to give the car away because it was basically inoperable. Which sucks when you're out hundreds of dollars in "repairs" to them. I'm seeing lots of 5-star reviews from people with no profile picture and only 1 review which tells a lot right there. Take it from me an Honest Joe and spend your money on quality mechanics that believe in customer service and less on discrimination.
