Was recommended this mechanic from a friend who also took their 2000s era Subaru here. Ive had my 2001 Subaru Outback serviced here several times now for some general maintenance, as well as electrical, steering, and brake service. They are always super friendly on the phone to schedule or discuss findings/recommendations, thrifty in finding the appropriate parts quickly, and overall straight-shooters. Couldnt recommend more!!!

I take my 2016 Toyota Prius here for service and always receive top notch, honest work. I never feel like Ron and his team are over charging me or trying to up sell me additional work. Price is excellent for the care they take in each car service. Before taking my car to Specialty Auto, I was purely a dealership customer until I realized how dishonest they were when working on my car. Its honestly the best, and you know that is true as all my friends and family take their vehicles here now! You wont regret it!

Just returned from my first visit to get my ‘11 Outback serviced (oil and both differentials), and am very happy with the service and price. They even beat the price of another competitively priced shop I’ve used. Happy to have found an honest and competent local mechanic so quickly after searching in my new neighborhood.

Ron and his team are hands down the best in town. He has been servicing my Honda Pilot for years, as well as my entire familys fleet as weel as most of my friends cars. A true, honest mechanic is getting harder and harder to find- which is why I stick with Specialty Auto. Great care, very practical, understands your needs and gives honest advice. Would recommend 10/10.

I have a Nissan and have been going to Specialty Auto since I got it 3 years ago. I bought it used, so I knew there would be some issues. John made sure to spend more time fixing a part if it meant not having to buy an expensive replacement. Specialty Auto also has made sure to buy quality replacement parts, giving a warranty for them. I only had an issue with one part, and they honored the warranty they gave, not charging me for the labor or new part. I trust them immensely.

Ive gone to Ron at Specialty Auto a handful of times over the last two years and let me tell ya, there isnt a more honest and thoughtful guy to work with. From oil changes, to spark plugs and also some CAT errors, hes been completely transparent and a pleasure to work with. Having to make costly repairs is never fun for any automobile owner, but I can rest easy knowing my truck in Rons hands. Highly recommend this shop and the staff that Ive worked with.

Specialty Auto Care always takes care of us! My fiance and I have been going to Ron for years now and his shop is the first one we choose and the first we recommend to all of our friends. All of the staff are trustworthy, reliable, and get the job done quick.

I have been taking my car to Ron at Specialty Auto for years now and have received exception service every single time. Ron always offers fair pricing, fantastic car advice, and never tries to upsell you. If you own a car, I recommend you take it to Specialty Auto for service and care.

I had a good experience with Ron. Prices were competitive. He seemed very knowledgeable and trustworthy. I got timing belt, power steering pump, plugs and misc seals and my 08 Acura runs great. I will be back for AC maintenance in the spring.

Then had my car repaired in acceptable time and did a good job as well. The only thing I didnt like was the cost of the repair but when I asked for a veterans discount they did give me a 10% discount which helped me out a lot. Therefore I give Specialty Auto a 5-Star rating. They did tell me that they were no longer going to be working on Volkswagens. So even though the tow truck driver recommended this place and they did repair my VW dont take your car there if its a VW.

Fair pricing and fast turnaround.

Great, honest, quick mechanic!

Ron has been my go-to for several years now (‘90 Toyota Corolla, ‘90 Corolla All Trac, ‘86 4Runner) & he does great work. Subaru side takes care of my girlfriend’s ‘15 Forester. Love the honesty here. These guys are top notch!

Mark Davis is the best mechanic in Portland! He is honest, does not overcharge, is courteous, timely and gets back to you when you leave a message. His small staff are equally as good. It is nice to go to a small business where you and your car are taken care of and remembered.

Had a really good experience dealing with Mark at Specialty Auto. Extremely insightful, knowledgable, AND informative. Estimates were accurate and fair, labor rates are competitive, they have a secure lot and good mechanics. Dont know what else to say

Ive taken my Subaru to Specialty for years now and have always been happy with the professional and honest service.

Quality of service was not that great. needs much improvement

They always do wonders for our Leaf.

Went out on my lunch break and noticed I had a leak in the valve stem on drivers side tire. He got me right in and replaced the valve stem super fast, and back on the road so I could make it back to work before lunch break was over. Approved

My Family has used this shop for years and love coming here. Staff is super friendly and prices are great!

Mark, John, and Troy are extremely helpful and trustworthy. I super recommend these folks if youve got a vehicle of foreign make!

My 2002 Subaru Outback broke down on the freeway. I took it to Specialty Auto because I have heard good things about them through my work. They went in and replaced all the necessary parts and put it all back together quickly for me, knowing that I was paying for my rental car. My car is running great. The shops communication was good, they kept me informed about what they were doing and how much it would cost, with no surprises. The people there are friendly, and knowledgeable. I recommend them highly to anyone in need of repairs.

Ive been to this place a couple of times with our old truck. I have been consistently amazed at their honesty. Most of the time they have just told me I needed a belt tightened or something really simple. They never tried to up sell me anything. I truly believe these guys are good people and just want to do only what the car needs. When our truck did need more than $50 in repair they called to tell me my options prior to doing any work. They are fantastic.I have always been really skeptical of mechanics but these guys have earned my trust.

Great & reliable shop, took in my Subaru Outback for some service, took time to explain the problem found and most importantly it was repaired on time and the quote promised.

I have been taking my cars to this shop for over 15 years. I currently take my scion to Specialty Toyota. He is fantastic. He takes great care of my car without huge expense. I totally trust him and would recommend him to anyone!

Ive been taking my Toyota Tacoma to Ron for a few years now. He is so honest and reasonably priced. I never get that sinking feeling when I get his bill, Im always relieved. Seriously. My truck never needs much, its a great one, but Im glad Ive got a reliable mechanic I can depend on for quality care. Right now, Im looking for a used car and Ron has let me ask him questions about what to look for. Plus, for a very reasonable fee, hell look at the car Im interested in and let me know what kind of condition its in.

Always great service and professional help with excellent prices

An honest and highly competent mechanic. I have been taking my cars to Specialty for service since 2010. Highly recommend any of the mechanics there.

Weve taken our cars to Specialty Auto for a few years now and have consistently been impressed with their quality of work, speed, honesty and clear communication, and fair pricing. We trust them!

Very professional and considerate. I have taken my 84 Vanagon to Specialty twice and been very pleased with the work and way also that this shop does business. Both times Mike has called me as he is working to explain the options and costs involved. He does great work and is a pleasure to do business with. Ive tried a couple other shops in town and have been disappointed with them running up the bill - Its such a relief to have been referred to this shop and have a mechanic I trust.As for alternator post in this list - I think what you were probably quoted was the price for a *new* alternator versus a rebuilt. Mike just put a rebuilt alternator in my van and the cost was very reasonable.

They have been taking care of my familys car for well over 10 years and have some a great job with it, keeping the engine running well and giving honest information about service.

Took the time to speak with me over the phone about what was likely going on with my car. The tech I spoke with instantly knew what the issue was, while everyone else wanted me to bring it in (and pay a diagnostic fee) before giving me any of their time. Service took a couple hours instead of days, priced exactly as estimated. Single-handedly un-ruined my week.

Awesome and trustworthy. Once you come you will never leave.

I will not take my volkswagen there again.

Been using these guys for 3 years now and they are super honest and do great work.

Got some work done on my outback, it was way cheaper than the other place I got a quote from. And they seem to really know what theyre doing!

Ron has been working on my two Hondas for 11 years. Hes extremely trustworthy and an excellent mechanic,. Highly recommended.

Been going to them for over twenty years!

Took the day off to fix a nagging check engine light issue after multiple trips to the Nissan dealership with no results, so based on the reviews I thought this would be a great alternative... After dropping it off in the morning and wandering around the area for 5 hours I got a phone call at 2pm saying that they didnt do any work on the car because it was a Nissan issue and suggested that I bring it to a dealership 🙄... Beyond annoyed and the person at the counter seemed to give zero Fs about it, so I took the car and left. Wont be coming back, and I suggest you dont either.

Honest
