Amazing price with very friendly service and an exceptional timely service. I had almost a whole wheel falling off and they literally helped save Christmas for a lot of families I work with!!! Thank you:)

Clear communication, fair prices and fast service. I will be back.

$1400 for front brakes and bearings. Problem persisted 2 days after. Still dealing with it. Other places are willing to do it for half of what I paid here.

Had a spark plug pop and the head needed to have a metal insert put in to hold the plug they had it done in a couple hours staff were really good to work with courteous and the price was fair have a steering problem I can't quite diagnose so I plan on taking my back to them because I believe they are a trustworthy shop

Every time we come to get our car serviced we are greeted with amazing customer service and they treat our car with amazing car. Richard and his crew know exactly what they are doing and I am proud to call affordable car doctor my mechanics! I will always recommend them anytime someone tells me they need work done.


Mar 07, 2024

We just got our car serviced from Richard and his crew, the best mechanic shop we've gone to hands down, always really nice and friendly they all do amazing work on all the vehicles they work on. If you haven't been in, I suggest checking them out sometime.


Feb 07, 2024

Always great service at a fair price!


Feb 07, 2024

Great service!


Feb 07, 2024

Super nice, guys. Fast and efficient!


Feb 07, 2024

Test drive of a 2007 Subaru Outback, engine rebuilt, really a nice car! I'd recommend "Affordable Car Dr" for all your vehicle maintenance and repairs hand's down!


Feb 07, 2024

This is the best automotive repair shop in Portland.


Feb 07, 2024

Took our Hyundai Santa Fe to them today for an oil change. Amazing customer service, communication and work. 20/10 recommend!


Feb 07, 2023

BEWARE. Will fix things that don't need fixing. They will not tell you, their Repair Won't Fix Your Problem. They will tell you after $1,000.00 Bill. You Need to Take Your Car to Someone That Can Fix It... This is a Scam...


Feb 07, 2023

Brought in our 2014 Ford F350 for Oil and Transmission Service and a complete inspection. They had me all done the next day. Highly recommend Affordable Car Dr!!!


Feb 07, 2023

Can't believe I've never left a review for this place. I've brought 3 of my cars here to them over the last 9 or so years (before they moved from their first location!) and I couldn't recommend them enough. Don't pay attention to the odd one star reviews. They don't represent this shop at all. I had a 1998 Honda Accord for a decade and got all of the major repairs done here- I'm talking the entire water pump system, alternator, emergency radiator replacement, and they even replaced the motor in my drivers side automatic window. Now I own a 2013 VW Jetta Sportswagen and there are some big repairs that I know are likely coming up. I've expressed concerns (like the catalytic converter possibly starting to go), and I've always been promptly listened to and things were inspected. They won't just fix things without asking. They call me every time to thoroughly explain what's going on and what they recommend, but I've never been upsold or taken advantage of. These guys are the real honest deal. I roadtrip a lot and my work commute is 80 miles every day, so I'm in and out getting oil changes often. I trust them implicitly with making sure my car is safe!


Feb 07, 2023

Highly recommend for repairs. We have been taking our van and trucks here for 4 years now. They are great with communication and the prices are very fair. Always very helpful and honest we appreciate their business 👏


Feb 07, 2023

I have use Affordable Car Doctor several times. Well, this last time, I was chargerd $900 for repairs not done. Today its snowing. Rich cliamed to fix my thermostat which was a $12 part with a $100 service fee. I called Them out on it. Got the run around on how he fixed the thermostat but not the fan. Went somewhere else today. And was told the thermostat was not fixed and it wasn't just the fan! You know when your lied to!


Feb 07, 2023

Needed an oil change and a problem with my car idling looked at. They got it done in an hour and charged next to nothing, told me to call them if there are any other issues and theyd get me in ASAP. Great work and people, Absolutely coming back next time


Feb 07, 2023

Quality work. The Mechanics know what they are doing. Thats a fact.


Feb 07, 2023

Really thought these people could help me. I've never been turned down by a shop all because I did some minor work on my car prior to bringing it in...I was even willing to pay for a tune up. Either some people don't like money, or they don't like challenges but maybe this was a sign that this shop wasn't the one for me.


Feb 07, 2023

These guys know cars and one of the best experience auto repair laces I've ever been to...


Feb 07, 2023

Very rude service. Messed something up didnt want to service afterwords. Whatever. Was gonna give you quite a bit of money.


Feb 07, 2022

Affordable, honest, keeps you in the know all day too about what's going on with your vehicle. After my problem was fixed by them for NOTHING I was told if the issue comes up to bring it in with part's I could by online. Yes... bring in the part I could find at a decent price and they would install it. The owner is a fantastic guy with a great professional attitude with a incredible backstory. Please.. PLEASE give your business to this establishment.


Feb 07, 2022

Communication was thorough and work was completed quickly. I had a hard to find electrical problem and was worried no one would be able to figure it out. Rich and staff were very impressive they found and fixed my issue quickly which was impressive considering its needle in a haystack orgins. I mostly worked with Rich, although throughout the process spoke with all the staff and everyone was awesome, just a genuinely a great bunch of people. I would have paid a couple hundred dollars more and still felt I got a fair deal. I'm legitimately impressed and won't bother looking for anyone else in the future, as long as this shop is open.


Feb 07, 2022

Excellent group over there , they beyond exceeded expectations and when it came to paying I couldn’t even come close believe how reasonable the rates were . I’m extremely happy to finally find a shop I can trust and afford to do my maintenance and repairs . Way to go guys keep up the excellent work


Feb 07, 2022

I got prepurchase inspection and the mechanic was was awesome. Gave me great insight into buying used cars, much to the chagrin of the salesman.


Feb 07, 2022

Limited car knowledge on newer cars, highly advise against taking any car newer than 2010 here.


Feb 07, 2022

Only shop I use! Integrity.


Feb 07, 2022

The guys their are awesome thank you richard and team


Feb 07, 2022

This is my second trip taking my car to the Affordable Car Doctor and will definitely keep going back! Rich is awesome and keeps me in the loop the whole time with everything going on with my car. I also really appreciate that he can get me in so quick and fixed up in no time. My car is almost 20 years old but Rich makes sure it’s running just as good as the day I got it (better honestly). If you need work on your car done, definitely make it at Affordable Car Doctor!


Feb 07, 2021

Always an amazing. Rich is a great guy with a ❤.


Feb 07, 2021

Awesome! Found my new mechanic! My friend recommended this place when I needed a mechanic to do a huge service quickly. Richard was able to get me in immediately and get the work done with a great price! I will recommend to any of my friends who need to get work done on their car to go here. A little out of town but is worth the drive!


Feb 07, 2021

Honest mechanics for fair prices. Thanks for the good work on my Hyundai!


Feb 07, 2021

I feel way better now before my long road trip having my car serviced from a place with great work and great attitude


Feb 07, 2021

Richard and his team are honest mechanics who worked on my truck to get it up and running. I feel confident in their work and will be continuing to service my vehicle with this shop. Richard kept me in the loop and was passionate about the work he does on your vehicle and for our communities. Thank you.


Feb 07, 2021

They are the Best in the business !!!
