Description

Thank you for the opportunity to serve you. Typically, we work by appointment allowing us to efficiently same-day service vehicles dependent upon the work required. Of course, if you are broke down on the side of the road, please call and we will try our best to get you back on the road as quickly as possible. We service American & Import vehicles. There are a few services we do not offer, however we may have a trusted recommendation. Gary began this shop in 1999 with the idea of dealing honestly and fairly with customers. Michelle came on to help in the office, and Jacob was added to the team a few years later. Gary rarely comes into the shop, however his practice of being honest and fair continues. Thank you!

Hard to find a good mechanic. No one is perfect, but Gary's is a good place to take your car. They helped me out with something another mechanic wasn't willing/able to

The shop is excellent. Clear communication in what the issues are and give you the options, they stick to given timelines, and keep you updated along the way. all work they did for me was done quickly and correctly the first time, and they are really nice. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’ll be back here anytime I need auto work done. Thank you!

Repeat customer here. Good people to work with at Gary's.

I won’t take my car or my daughter’s car anywhere else. Michelle and Jacob are honestly two of the best people I have ever met. They have been nothing but honest and considerate. Even when things have not gone well - my daughter’s engine died (nothing they could do), they did everything they could to help me work through the situation and make it less stressful. Incredibly trustworthy and honest. Two rare characteristics these days!

Truly awful people. Don't waste your time here.

Highly recommend Gary’s! Great service, honest/fair pricing, and they did a great job on my car repair

I've taken all my vehicles to Gary over the years and being a woman that can be a challenge. However, Gary let me know what was wrong and given a fair price. Michelle knows her stuff too. I highly recommend this business....

Just amazing folks, willing to explain what needs fixing and charge reasonable prices for parts and labor. Before going to your delerships shop check these guys out.

Voice assistant was useful

Bill over at Gary's automotive is a good guy. He has been working on my car over the last few years. They have reasonable rates and its situated right by Mt Scott, Happy valley. Right on 92nd near the Johnson creek exit of 205.

Gary and his staff totally rock. Saved me 100's of dollars. Efficient, candid, no muss no fuss. A++

Gary’s Auto Repair is great! Our whole family goes here. They are honest, communicative, quick, kind, and affordable. What more could you want?


Dec 07, 2023

I started going to Gary’s at the suggestion of my dad, a long-time customer. This was after I bounced around between Jiffy Lubes and the like, never leaving satisfied with the work or prices. I just stopped in today, worrying that my car was falling apart on me. They were empathetic and professional, got the work done promptly and— a big one for me as a single income head of household— they never tried to upcharge me or try to twist my arm into having more work done. Excellent service out of an excellent shop 👍

Trustworthy and affordable. Work with them in their system and you'll be happy.

Great price and awesome service


Dec 07, 2022

I recently had to replace the computer for the transmission in my car. That cost around $800. The transmission shop told me that my car needed more than $4,000 worth of other work as well. I told them that I'd take it to my regular mechanic for the rest of the work. Gary's Auto Repair just called me with a quote for the extra work: $540. That's why I continue going to Gary even though he's in Portland, and I had to take three public buses to get home. He never overcharges me or tells me that I need work when I don't. I'm so glad that I didn't have to spend all my savings on my car!


Dec 07, 2022

I went to Gary's with a serpentine belt that was squealing whenever I started the car or made a sharp turn. They tightened my belt which fixed the issue, then didn't even charge for the labor! Free service, can't get any better than that! I know other mechanics would at least charge for the time! Thank you Gary's!!!


Dec 07, 2022

I won't take my vehicle anywhere else. Honesty and affordability are key here.


Dec 07, 2022

Our personal and business vehicles both get serviced at Gary's and they deliver every single time! We've had small and big jobs performed on our vehicles; these folks know their stuff, they're knowledgeable and local. We always recommend Gary's to our friends, neighbors and family. Thumbs up!

Had a few repairs done here, but new issues kept appearing. Helpful and communicative, but overlooked some serious issues.


Dec 07, 2020

I love Gary's. Prices are great, very fast, I never feel swindled either.
