G & J Auto Center

I already knew the issue with my vehicle by scanning it using OBD2 and asking them to diagnose it. They only reset the code and drove for a few minutes to see if it returned. They said it was an old stored code, and my vehicle was acceptable. The next day, those codes appeared, and I am pretty sure they didn't make any diagnosis. They just told me I needed to replace parts. They charged me $170$.

My college kids car broke down. I called the next morning and they scheduled his car after the weekend. Got it there Friday morning and they repaired it same day. Super friendly staff and super happy with quick service.

My OSU student's Subaru Outback was making a horrible noise and I called Ron and he was able to diagnose the issue and provide and estimate the same day! This was a very high level of service delivered with short notice to a parent needing to evaluate a problem. Great experience. 5 stars!

Good shop for alignments, modern equipment and good price. Although they did try to sell me on some less-than-critical alignment bolts for an insane price, they made it right after I questioned and inspected.

I had two rear bearing replaced on my Subaru Impreza at G and J. The first bearings they put on my car did not work with my vehicle, so they upgraded me to OEM Subaru bearings at no extra cost. After a few weeks of driving I haven't noticed any other issues and the grinding sound has gone away.

G & J Auto Center is so helpful, transparent, and able to get me in same day or next day.

Great customer service! Gave me a ball park estimate which was very close to the actual quote. Also got my car in and out 2days earlier than they had estimated. Will be going here for future maintenance and repairs. Definitely recommend trusting them with any of your car needs!!

Great shop. They are very helpful and honest and provide thorough inspection reports.

I called them yesterday about a part that needed to be replaced before I moved across the country next week, they were all so accommodating and were able to squeeze me in to look at my car the very next day. They got back to me about an hour later and could ship the part that day and replace it. The two guys are the counter even gave me a student discount which was very sweet and were telling me about how my car is in good shape. If I was staying here I would continue to give them my business. Very sweet people at this shop.

Just gave these guys a call concerning my 09 corolla. Asked about an engine tune up. They said not a lot is required for these newer 4 cyl engines and gave me a few tips over the phone. Good guys

So I called ask for a quotation (tire replacement) This dude says”78$”(without asking me how many tires I need to replace) I said “including everything?” This dude”yes” But when I pulled up It’s not 78$ It’s 780$ These shady scammers will try to scam you if they perceive you are vulnerable. Instead I went to Firestone and get my tire replaced with a much better and smooth experience.(and a cheaper price) And dude(the white dude at the reception desk), don’t talk to me like that, I don’t own you anything.

Super friendly and helpful, we always take our cars there

Feb 06, 2024

Super kind, professional, and straightforward body shop- plus they offer a AAA discount if you ask! Recently had my clutch assembly done, car runs great! Thanks!

Feb 06, 2024

Very rude, no apathy. Over rated and now, over priced!

Wanted to write this review specifically about Ron. Ron has made a consistent effort to help us even though I didn’t end up being a paying customer (upon his free inspection he discovered my car’s engine is shot). Ron didn’t care that I wasn’t a paying customer, he helped me just the same, going above and beyond even after my car was out of his hands. I think that says a lot about the service you’ll get here. Easy 5 stars. Quality people at this shop.

Car broke down as we entered Corvallis, and fortunately we saw this auto repair shop. We are AAA members and saw this designation on the sign. Instead of helping us, they insisted we move our vehicle out of the parking lot immediately. We chugged across the street, called AAA and had car towed while we arranged a rental car. This shop was not helpful or kind.

Feb 06, 2023

Fair, honest and always reliable service!

Fantastic place. I took my lexus to Toyota of Corvallis because it wouldn’t start. They said it had “no compression” and needed a new $6000 engine replacement. I didn’t believe them and had the lexus towed to G and J. There they diagnosed it as fuel wash and had it running back as normal fit $200.

Feb 06, 2023

Good people

Feb 06, 2023

Great experience, honest and skilled.

Feb 06, 2023

I found the best place to take my car. Affordable, honest and great customer service. Thank you Tom for the excellent job on my Volkswagen and Tom for your great customer service. I will be back and I will refer friends 😉

I had a very good experience here. I called earlier this week and they got me in right away, which no other mechanic could do in Corvallis. They were incredibly polite and listened to me when I told them what was wrong with my car. The diagnostics didn’t take long at all and they immediately called back and told me how much it would cost and it was very affordable. They’re replacing the cooling fans, fixing my front left tire rod, and doing an alignment. Just to get my cooling fans replaced at another place I went to in Portland was the same exact price that G & J is charging me to get all of this done. It was a huge relief and they’re getting it all done today. I don’t post many reviews but this place definitely earned 5 stars.

My car died and they immediately scheduled me in. All fixed and ready to go in less than two days!

Feb 06, 2023

My engine light was flashing, and I could hear my engine gurgle. Called AAA, and they gave me three shops. All of these were booked, but G&J said to bring it in and will see it first thing in the morning. I live on the coast, so I would have to stay overnight. They were worried about me, so they tried to check and fix my car immediately. Ron, Randy, and Travis were my superheroes that day. I appreciate their thoughtfulness and sliding me in to ensure I could drive safely home that evening. They also stand by their maintenance.

Feb 06, 2023

The ABS light went on in my Toyota. I saw the positive Google reviews for G&J and was nearby. I went in and they ran a diagnostic. And charged me $143. A male friend later told me most auto parts stores would have done this for me for free. Ladies, beware, these guys see you coming!

Feb 06, 2023

The best service I've ever had. This was my Mothers favorite and only place for complete Auto service.. trustworthy and best mechanic you'd want to work on your vehicle and look at... (Handsome) ;)

Feb 06, 2023

Took the car in because of the check engine light. They "said" they diagnosed the issued and I agreed to pay. Over 400 dollars later the light is still on and now they think it could be something else. What did I pay over 400 for then? No refund no discount on the further work... just another fix and test shop hoping that one of their guesses is correct. Avoid these shade tree mechanics at all costs.... Also, on the AAA website it says they are a AAA trusted shop... not sure what happened there but, dont believe it.... totally not true. When I brought up AAA they didnt know what I was talking about. Again, just dodgy and disappointing. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. Also, I would not believe a single positive review on here.
