Gateway did a great job repairing my BMW. They went out of their way to find the specific gasgets needed for the repair saving me a couple hundred dollars I would have had to spend if purchasing a huge kit from BMW. They reached out to other experts when they were struggling with diagnosing the issue. I will be using them again. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star is that I felt more communication along the way would have been nice. Thank you Gateway
Andrea and team are phenomenal! Had a problem with my windshield wipers, they dropped everything, diagnosed the problem, and got the parts ordered.They also helped me previously with a much more significant and dangerous situation with my front wheels which I was unaware of...very prompt and courteous service!
Recently had my transmission replaced, they took their time and did it right. They were completely up front with all work required. I feel comfortable knowing I have a 3 year warranty. Brought the vehicle back to have a checkup done and was satisfied with their quick service.
It was great! Both Andrea and Andy were both informative, thorough, and professional. Nice folks to. My car runs like its brand new. On a scale of one to ten theyre a 10 in my book. Great experience ☺️
Very customer service oriented. Would definitely recommend.
I had taken my 2004 suburban to two Chevrolet Dealers in Everett and Lynwood.I was not treated properly or with respect.No follow up on phone, no printed quotes.The Suburban has 204,000 miles and has been a great car.I called Andrea at Car Care Clinic at Gateway Transmissions. In Oak Harbor.She was very helpful and asked specific questions.Then emailed me an estimateI picked up the suburban at the dealer and took it to Car Care Clinic at GatewayTransmissions.Andrea was very detailed in writing up my issues, I was able to talk to the mechanic Austin. Which never happens at Chevrolet dealers.They kept me informed as the work progressed.They overhauled my transmission and fixed several other issues.Also sent it out for me to have it detailed inside and out which is a superior detail.I will take my vehicles to them for service i the future.They are very personal and a pleasure to deal with.Noel Reuland
Thet are nice however when I looked up Kelly Blue Book with the price I was given it was unfair. They seem to have high tech equipment so maybe you pay a bit more..not sure however I personally was not a fan of the prices nor was I told it would be 10 days before Id be given an estimate...
If you’re looking for a place to take your car, this is it!!! Not only do they inform you what is needed for your car, they take pictures of your car and educate why it’s needed. Rather than every other place who just tells you and you’re forced to trust their word.You won’t find a more thorough and trustworthy place than Gateway!!The manager, Andrea is not only friendly but knowledgeable. The lobby/waiting area is welcoming offering a spacious area, comfortable couches and a huge plus.... snacks!Here’s a shout out to my mechanic Austin and the manager Andrea, as y’all are professional and super duper fun too!!
Took 2 of my vehicles here for transmission services and they were very professional and upfront about what i needed done to the vehicles. First vehicle was a 93 Chevy truck which hasnt seen the shop in a while and they did a full inspection along with a transmission service and they detailed everything that I should look at fixing but in no way did they pressure me into doing it now or even with them. Very honest and straight forward, would go there again.
The manager, Andrea, is very courteous and Austin, the technician, was prompt in getting my car in at the appointed time. The financial quote Andrea gave was within the limit, along with the time quote as well. The office is clean and offers coffee, tea and a few food items if you are there while you wait. I trust the team to take care of my car needs.
Ive been taking my 1985 Toyota SR5 pickup to Gateway Oak Harbor for the last 14 years. Thats why its still running great. When I drop off my truck there, I feel exactly like Im taking a pet to a vet. If youre not taking your vehicles to Gateway Oak Harbor, youre doing it wrong.

Very friendly and knowledgeable people.
It was very easy to schedule my appointment online on their website. As soon as I got there they were able to get my car in and begin troubleshooting to find out what was wrong with my car not being able to start and having to jumpstart it. Turned out I needed a new starter. They were able to get one in the very next morning to install. They did have to keep it overnight but were quick on letting me know and updating me. Very professional and got the job done fast! I’d recommend this place!
If you need your oil changed or anything done... you go to this place they get it done fast
If I had known about gateway transmission sooner, I would have come in a heart beat. I highly recommend this place to everyone in need of car repairs, because they care about fixing the root of the problem instead of making a quick buck! Thank you Andrea and Austin!
Got a text that the Shop had a few openings for maintenance this week and I jumped right on an appointment for the next day.Vehicle was dropped off the night prior for my convenience and some deferred maintenance was all set to go.Got a thorough e mail explanation of the issues w photos and was called by the manager with all the details.Great customer service and prompt repair.RR
Was very happy with Car Care Clinic. they fixed my car in a very timely manner.They were affordable and did very good work. I would highly recommend themMuch ThanksLarry Miller
We’ve had several vehicles repaired here over the years. Knowledgeable mechanics, open and honest estimates, great communication. Very fair.
I went to the shop to have my steering looked at after hearing some strange noises. Dave was able to fit me in right away and provide me with a diagnosis. I had just bought the car and Dave helped me work through getting it repaired with my warranty at no cost. It is a very fair and fast shop. I will definitely be returning.
Friendly and professional with amazing attention to detail superb work!
The employees have gone above and beyond helping me with all my car issues. They are now my mechanics for all my car care needs. They do stand behind their work.
I had diagnoses and pick up in one day. Coming from another state that the quickest shop in town was 3 weeks wait I was impressed. Owner was thorough with his questioning so there was no doubt on what I needed done. I was able to see the report online which was nice. Will definitely use this buisness in the future. Great experience with these fellas.
Used these guys a couple times. Once for some clutch work and once to diagnose some smoking. Great customer service. Cost has been less than quite each time. Like the online notification system, showing me recommendations and pictures so I can see what needs the work. Highly recommend.
Dave was awesome and they will be straight forward with you. I took my car in for an inspect to find out what was wrong with it. Dave gave me all the options and recommendations for repair, but never was forceful or push. I didnt end up getting the work done because Im selling the car and didnt want to put in extra money to just turn around and sell it. But I would highly recommend these guys. Honest and give it to you straight.
Called in to see if they have time to check my break light for me after I realized it was out. Was told I can stop by right that second and was able to get my bulb changed and was out in under 30 minutes!Super beyond recommend!
Dropped my car off on a Thursday two hours later they had their assessment and by Tuesday the next week it was fixed and drives like I just bought it new. Phenomenal service! The employees are quite knowledgeable and extremely friendly. I highly recommend this place!
Oil pan gasket damage after oil change.
Driving home from work and my truck wouldn’t shift out of first gear. I put the hazards on and limped it to Gateway Transmission. Dave the owner greeted me and I explained what was going on and he asked me to leave and he would look at it tomorrow. Later that day he called and told me the good news and suggested I also have my transmission service while it here and I said yes. Dave and Charlie are very professional and friendly. I will definitely be taking my vehicle back for maintenance. Thank you all down at Gateway!!
Always on time, professional and a great team!
Camping and we noticed a line of fluid under our camper van. Panic. Found Gateway and called yelling HELP! Dave was awesome, very helpful, very professional, made room for us on a busy day (theyre all busy). Highly recommend these folks
This place offered free oil changes to those on the front lines during this covid-19 pandemic, which is just so thoughtful and kind. They were really fast, and made sure I was fully taken care of.
I’m new to the area and did a lot of research before taking my car in to get it checked out. Dave was extremely knowledgeable and helpful! You can tell he really cares about his customers. He did free diagnostics to find the problem and called with an estimate prior to proceeding. I will recommend this shop to anyone needing work done on their car!
Absolutely some of the best service I have ever had. They give quick responses to inquiries. Dave definitely knows his stuff.
The crew at Car Care Clinic are the best! They fixed my truck and answered all my questions. Its such a relief to deal with honest and professional mechanics. I highly recommend Car Care Clinic to anyone who needs good solid mechanics.Fair prices also.
Excellent service, quick repairs and a wealth of knowledge. Brought my 2008 BMW 335i in for a coolant problem and the crew at Gateway Transmissions was more than helpful diagnosing the problem and very quick to repair the water pump. Dave and the team really know how to treat their customers and are straight up with you genuinely making you feel welcome.
Truck inspection went well; transmission is till running well. We had another minor issue that Dave and his staff addressed without hesitation. I am pleased.
Owner is great, hard working honest person! We will be back, great place to take a vehicle if you want it done right!
They are honest and fair. I would trust them with any repair. In the past they have fix my car with great results. Thank u again.
Dave was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. He was upfront about the possible cost and the process needed to fix my 2013 f150. I would definitely go there again
I have gone to the car care clinic for years, they take care of my car and help me get back to my life. I took my car in, they found the issue, and fixed it! It was affordable and done well!
Although we were not prepared to replace the battery and alternator on our Saab, these guys did a great job and kept us in the loop the entire time. They had to order the parts from Saab so they were able to provide us with a loaner so my wife could get to work. We will definitely use there car services again! Thanks to Max for the great customer service!
The team here took care of my family and our car, were simultaneously personal and professional, all while working on improvements to their shop. Continues to be a great place.
I had the gentlemen here recently replace the transmission in my 1988 GMC Suburban, as well as a few other things. Not only were they timely with the repairs, but they kept me up to date with what was going on and how much it would cost. I recommend them to anyone I know for anything from oil changes to heavy duty rework.
These guys know their stuff when it comes to vehicles.
Dave gave you a play by play and prices as you go. Letting you know exactly what was going on at all times. The communication was great. They also back their work with a warranty. Their mission is to make sure the car is just the way it needs to be before leaving their shop!Tiffany
Dave is very knowledgeable and explains things in a clear way. He is very fair with pricing and never does anything without checking with me and explaining his reasoning. I thoroughly appreciate the email/text communication!
I needed my timing belt and water pump fixed, they got in and fixed it quickly. Very kind and professional! Definitely will go back if I need more work! :)
Excellent care and service. No surprises, consistently updated along the way with findings. Vehicle runs great.
Personnel seemed nice, price quoted was $1000.00 more than a competitor. Had 2 go with better deal
Gateway transmission took the time to talk about the problems that are occurring with my Ford Ranger. There was no delay in responding to a good evaluation, that was free of charge. The price per hr.is steep, likely due to good use of time and expertise. I respect the opinion of the shop. Im confident they willfix the issues that we have discussed.
Fantastic friendly service, explained everything simply and in lay mans terms and shopped around to save me money on parts! When my car had to worked on overnight I was even offered a courtesy ride home! Will definitely be returning for all future car needs!
I recently had Gateway complete some significant repairs on my truck. Bill and Max were very professional, forthright, and honest in providing detailed estimates and explanations of the work to be performed, how long it would take, and my repair options. I definitely plan to bring my truck back to them in the future to have some additional work done.
The people of Car Care Clinic at Gateway Transmission are very nice honest. I an older vehicle not to many want to wor on it, and am fortunate to have a repair shop close by that is trustworthy and willing to help. I recommend them, theyre honest, to the point, and very fast and professional. Both times Ive taken my car in, I scheduled an appointment a day or two before, and they have had it ready only a few hours after bringing it in. and it was running perfectly.
Dave W. saw the predicament we were in (Middle of a vacation to Alaska) when the clutch of our dinghy went out. Outstanding response in getting us fixed up in only two days!MOST STRONGLY RECOMMEND Gateway Transmission for your car repair needs!
They were very nice and helpful.
Have taken my vehicles to Gateway several times. They are honest and reliable. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Dave was extremely helpful when i brought in my Audi! He told me what was wrong and got it fixed all within a reasonable time. Thanks again Dave.
Gateway Oak Harbor cares about you and your car. Dave often takes the time to tell me how things happen, and how not to have things happen. If you want to feel safe the whole time youre driving, take your vehicle to Gateway Oak Harbor.
Gateway was able to service our motorhome and fix a troubling problem with our slide-in. I know it would have taken me a month to get an appointment at an RV service dealer and it would have been off island at best. It was great to be able to have it diagnosed and fixed locally.
Thank you to Gateway for working on my vehicle and being patient with me. Theyve been very open and honest! I appreciate Daves integrity!
Came in with a random discrepancy and they were able to not only diagnose that problem but ran a full check of the vehicle with photos!!
Did a great job and troubleshooting and repairing the transmission on my truck runs great now good guys to deal with
Friendly courteous staff. Repair completed expeditiously. One of few places knowledgeable about air cooled VW’s
They all showed great care for my vehicle.
I had a challenging issue where there would be an intermittent whine noise coming from somewhere under the hood. Dave and Charles were very patient and took the time necessary to isolate and fix the problem. I expected this issue to continue for weeks because the noise only occurred every few days. Thanks guys; great work
We had one of our Mitsubushi Fuso serviced at Gateway. It was well well passed it servicing due date as far as oil change and general maintenance. Dave made it clear how important regular on time servicing is and I appreciated that. Gateway will be servicing all our work vehicles from now on. Thank You Gateway for your thoroughness and care of our fuso(s).
Car Care Clinic at Gateway is the best auto repair shop in town. No job to big no job to small, I go to Gateway because they fix it all!
The staff was polite, friendly and helpful. The work was completed quickly and on time, and their fees matched the estimate!
Great service, great people, great dog. They were honest and let me know if issues with anything, they did a free service my 1st time in. Will be back with all my cars when the time is due.
GTs owner, Dave, bends over backwards to get things right, to work out payments, provide fair work, and complete good repairs, all in as timely a fashion as possible. GT rebuilt our transmission on our 2013 Grand Caravan in late 2016 as it passed 100,000 miles. 10 months and 30,000 miles later (yes, 30k) had it in for service and for going into limp mode just as we were about to go on vacation. Turnaround in one day, though unable to reproduce the problem. Honestly advised to not drive the van on a long trip for now, and worked through some problems with our CarCare One credit account to complete payment.
Dave goes above and beyond helping out, If I need transmission work I’d go here first.
Got good service for two inspections for cars I was considering buying. Friendly, prompt, and helpful with my questions.
David and Charles are amazing, they always go the extra mile and have kept all of my vehicles on the road for many years now.
Thanks to Dave and the guys at Gateway Transmissions for the friendly convenient service that helped get us back on the road.. Amazing repair times and attention to important details makes every trip to the shop a pleasure.
Thorough and quick friendly service. Stated a timeframe for repair and accomplished the task to full satisfaction. Thank You.
Charles and Dave are rock solid team that have a high standards and will not send your car out the door until it is in great shape!
I called and spoke to a man named Dave. I had my car inspected by another company and knew exactly what maintenance needed to get done. I was calling different companies, getting a rough estimates on what I needed, but for some reason he was extremely rude and wouldnt give me one. I understand that you may want to look at the car yourself and make sure what needs fixed, gets fixed and the estimate might not be exact, however thats why its called an estimate. The condescending and brash tone, wasnt necessary, escpecially when Im considering giving you my money to do repairs.
Great service, super friendly, great prices.Did work on my vw for unknown noises ane every one was super patient with me and my lack of car knowledge and helped me get the correct things fixed. Glad to have you guys working on my car!
I was very happy to do buissness with them. They finished in a timely manner very friendly and I especially do not worry about getting ripped off in some way. I will deffinately be bringing my car back next car issue
Good friendly service. Dave is very through and makes sure your satisfied .
Honest and dependable service! Dave and his team go above and beyond :). I highly recommend this shop!!
Honest and friendly. Done on timet Estimates accurate and they go the extra mile
My Isuzu over cab truck would not go into reverse or forward. I had it towed to Gateway in Oak Harbor. Dave and Charles took a look at it and said it needed a complete rebuild. It has been a month since we got the truck back and no problems! I was treated well and the work was clean and professional. They pointed out a tire malfunction that i was unaware of, saving me from a certain blow out! I would recomend Gateway Transmission for transmission work and other car work.
Care care clinics at gateway is great! They got me in the same day I called and had my car running better within a few hours.
Great service! Bill explained what needed to be done and provided us with a reasonable estimate.
Great service from Dave. He was honest, informative and got my AC working fast!
Ive had work done by Dave on several vehicles, from oil changes to a transmission rebuild and have always felt like I got a fair price. Even more important, I got quality work done.
Very nice and courteous staff. Great overall service.
I did not want this repair but once it was established that it needed to be done, I knew I wanted Gateway to do it. Still breaking it in so, contact me in 6 months!
Great service! This is now my auto service place!
Top notch mechanics and concerned, experienced office staff.
Very, very unhappy about their deceptive price quote practices.
Dave was amazing. Great service with honest people.
I have and will continue to recommend Gateway auto services to everyone. Thank you for good honest repair and services.
This place is amazing and Im always treated like family.
Good first time customer experience. Professional and fast.
Very fast turn around and excellent service!
Good service on a tranmission install on my toyota pickup good pricing too would highly recommend the shop good work thanks
Very polite and professional mechanics in this Clinic. Usually I don’t leave comments and ratings of places but for this place, I’ll be happy to.
