DAN'S AUTO SERVICE

Auto Service, Auto Inspections, Auto Radiators,

About us

Dan's Auto Service provides service and repair for most Imports and Domestics. We are an ASE, AAA and DEQ Certified repair facility. We are also members of the Oregon City Chamber. Our technician's are professionally trained and maintain their training on a regular basis. With every oil change we will provide a Courtesy Inspection, and give an in-depth report about any concerns or upcoming services. We are big on preventive maintenance and work with our customer to provide a maintenance schedule. Our Warranty is 2 years/24,000 miles, some restrictions apply. Established in 1993 Dan's Auto Service was one of three service facilities, which were later individually sold. The second-generation owner is also hands-on in the shop, involved in the business as a whole, and equally ranks customer service as his top priority. The Oregon City location originally started out specializing on Honda's. Over time, DAN'S expanded to Asian Imports and Domestics in order to meet our customer's car care needs.

Description of Work: Our car's engine was stuttering when cold and when under load at low RPMs (climbing Oregon City's many hills). The easy place to start is the ignition system with vacuum leaks being the second choice. I'm in the middle of starting my own business and my time is too valuable at the moment to do the work myself so I took the car to Dan's on a Thursday at 2pm to have them do the work. |I received a call on Friday afternoon expecting to hear that it was ready for pickup. Instead I was told that they were having trouble diagnosing the problem and needed to keep it over the weekend. Monday I received a call around 1PM stating that they felt that they had diagnosed the trouble and asking permission to order parts. Tuesday another call saying that they needed to order more parts and that the car should be back to me by Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday (six days later!) the car was returned to me and was running well again. |So what took them six days to diagnose and repair? The problem was the ignition system. The coil had gone bad and the spark plugs needed replacement. That's it. I could have diagnosed and done that work in 4 hrs with parts that are in stock at all times at my local Autozone! Instead they pursued and spent the bulk of their time trying to diagnose a problem with the fuel delivery system and I was charged for their ineptitude and was without a car for nearly a week as they fumbled around misdiagnosing the true (and simplest) explanation. |Avoid this shop!

I have been using their services for several years. They are very good at what they do, and they always finish their work on time. The prices are fair, and they are very professional.
Description of Work: I get my car serviced at Dan's Automotive. They last inspected a vehicle for me and a used car that I bought. They have done service work and just maintaining three cars for me.

Description of Work: They were a bit pricey, but they fixed my radiator quickly and efficiently. I think I would go here again if I didn't have time to research other more cost-effective options. The owner is very nice and I didn't feel like they were taking advantage of my lack of auto knowledge. This is a good choice for high-quality repair.

Our most recent experience was my husband's; he brought his jalopy in to have a strange noise diagnosed. He was told that the car was safe, but on its last legs. He could spend lots of money fixing lots of things, and it would still not have much longer on this earth. We were impressed, as we have both had mechanics over the years who are more than willing to fix every little thing (including things that don't need fixing) no matter what. So I definitely recommend Dan's.
Description of Work: My husband and I have both brought our cars (both Fords, about 10 years old) to Dan's since moving to Oregon City 5 years ago. We have had various things done, and have both been pleased with the work. More importantly, we feel that Dan's is an honest place--we are told what things will cost and they cost that amount. We are told why a part may be long in coming. I was told about a few parts my car needed replaced and why (Ford cheaped out and used plastic).

They did a complete service and fixed an ongoing steering problem. They had to do detailed research and charged us nothing to fix it because they honored their own warranty from 8 months before.
Description of Work: They do a really good job. They have gone above and beyond.

We think they are a bit pricey but they seem very good. We had it towed out there the other morning and they had it done by the afternoon. They did the job, they did it quickly, and they are there when you need them. We might be a little more careful about a price quote if we have time and don't have to find somewhere to tow our car right away.
Description of Work: We took our car to Dan's Auto Service and had them do an alternator repair.

I've been taking my vehicle here for a long time and they are very quick. They always do a good job for me. I don't have a recurrence of problems so I think they are doing a good job. They've been really good about telling me what needed to be done and prioritizing the issues for me.
Description of Work: My vehicle is 16 years old and I took it in for a tune up there were a few things that they fixed for me. They did some major repairs.
