I rate this establishment 2 stars because the description fits how I feel: "Meh. I've experienced…read morebetter." Convenience: Pretty good if you live in Portland. They are pretty much your only choice for most car work sans going into another town. Speed: Depends. The shop gets packed with cars, so don't always expect to get out of there under an hour (after you find a place to park). Quality: I've heard stories, and you can expect them from all auto shops. However, they are always right. Complaints about most things usually get the "it was already like that" line. (No, door panel tabs do not come broken by the manufacturer.) Service: Aha, this is my biggest problem. Note, this is the abridged version as I am much more animated when I tell it myself. So there's a fella behind the counter who acts like he wrote the book on auto mechanics. All customers are ignorant of what goes on behind those garage doors. So I go in to get my tires rotated and aligned. After waiting all day, I get a call that they could not perform the task as their computer found a problem. They asked if I was willing to put $500 into replacement parts and I declined. I go to the counter to receive my keys and the lady says "Cash or Credit?" I say, "oh, you must think I'm someone else, nothing was done to my car, they told me to just pick it up." She tells me that they still charged me because they attempted to work on my car. I argue that I requested for my tires to be rotated and aligned, neither tasks were done, so therefore I should not be charged when no services were rendered. She says that the service was finding out that it couldn't be done. About this time aforementioned fella arrives, toting smirk . He says, "now you can't expect me to not pay my mechanics for the time it took to look at your car, why it's been here for over 4 hours!" Yes, 3 hours and 45 minutes providing shade to your parking lot, 15 minutes on the lift. He goes on about the mysteries of the alignment machine and the skill involved to operate said machine by pressing "Go." I argue that I didn't ask for my car to get a check-up, I asked for a do or don't do service. With what only can be described as insulting, he tells me there's no way I'm getting my keys back until I pay. Guess who won. So in summation, a little hole was burned into my heart of which I filled with spite for this "Auto-Tech" center. Your experience may vary.

Gp Auto-Tech Center has been in our family for years. I remember when they were in the back of the…read moreExxon station years ago. They are very helpful to us, even on things like body and AC that they don't usually do. They take good care of our cars. If we need to go to another specialist, they will tell us. I have appreciated their advice and care of our cars. They will not do unnecessary work, nor insist that an expensive job be done immediately. I appreciate their courtesy and efficiency. It is important to know ahead of time when something will need to be done so we can plan for it, schedule-wise AND money-wise. They understand that. We have used them for several family cars now, and I think we have been able to extend the life of the cars due to excellent care. Thank you, Gp Auto-Tech for always working with us.

We were in Port Aransas on Vacation, made a trip to Corpus Christi to look around. Went to…read moreFajitaville we were there 10 years ago so seemed like a good Idea unfortunately as we were leaving the Left Front ball joint on my Husbands truck broke and it was BAD. Found Alternative Automotive on yelp and took a shot all I can say is GOD led us to these fine peope what could have posibly been a vacationruination became a blessing we will remember for years to come. They were kind understanding and absolute saints. I sent for a Uber and started looking for a rental car. Totally thinking we are screwed, but by the time the Uber got there the had already completed the repair! The price ..well that could have gone south as well ..but again they were complete angels and we rolled out for a little over $ 300.00 dollars !! They could of price gouged us but they were kind and understanding. My faith in humanity is restored. Also H & H Wrecker saved us as well..Have a little Faith everyone,good people are still out there!!! I give them a 100/100 dont be put off by the shop it doesnt look like much but I have a feeling God has big things in store for this family.

Genuinely the most amazing auto shop i've ever been to, family owned and they genuinely care…read more helped us at a desperate time and not only did a phenomenal job but were also very quick. Mario gave us a ride to the store while we waited and even offered a ride back to the shop after they were done. would rate it more stars if i could.

I was in town and wanted a much due rotation and balance check. They do this free if you bought…read moreyour tires from them. I did so I thought I would get this done. I checked them in Corpus and Portland for two of my three days here, and they always had a 2&1/2 hour wait. They suggested I make an appointment on line which I did for 4 pm. I arrived at 4 pm and got in line as if I had not made an appointment with no signage or indication as what to do if you had a reservation??? They told me they used to have a separate line for reservations but no longer do. I am not sure if there is any advantage to having a reservation??? They told me it put you ahead of other people in line. I did like that they had a cooler full of bottled waters as it was a hot day and it was much appreciated. My service advisor was courteous and friendly. The concept, pricing and selection for Discount Tire is a good , however, they have grown to the point that there is almost always a 2 or more hour wait no matter where you go. I would tell them BUILD MORE STORES. I was told I should be done by 5pm. It is 5pm and my car is still sitting in the parking lot. Has not yet moved. It did about 5:10 and the were done quickly. The technician came over and asked if the pressure he had set was ok. I sled him to go up a bit and he smiled and went back to it. So overall if they could work out the appointment issue I would rate them 5 stars.
