I have a (mostly) restored 1971 Ford

I have a (mostly) restored 1971 Ford F100 I purchased about 3 months ago. I previously took it to Canyon for a subcontracted rebuild of the old instrument cluster and broken speedometer. It was a bit pricey - which is what you expect on a 40 year old car - but they fixed everything 100%.

I was out driving the truck a week ago and it suddenly seemed the fuel pump was acting up (I just moved here and don`t hav... view moree my own garage yet so have only been able to do some basic work on it ...) I was able to limp it to the shop on Sunday and left the keys in the drop box and called them on Monday to describe the problem and have them take a look. The fuel pump/filter/etc seemed fine so we were both perplexed. The previous owner had told me he`d had issues with the coils burning out, they took a look and indeed it was the coil, but when they were replacing the coil they discovered that the existing coil had been internally wired incorrectly and wasn`t getting the right voltage from the battery (5-6v instead of 8v). They re-wired the harness to the new coil and not only does the truck run the best it has since I got it, it also starts now without the choke (even after sitting for 5 days!) They only charged me an extra $100 labor for the hours it took them to get to the bottom of this esoteric wiring issue. Very happy with the service so far, though I hope to have a house in the next month or so, but if I get stuck I`ll take it back to them

I have 99 Toyota Camry, over the Spring break my car intermittently won`t starter. I bought the battery from Costco hopefully the car will start, but it wouldn`t I brought it to Canyon Auto Repair and they found the problem right away, my starter contacts were bad.

A staple for my automotive needs for over 7 years

When I first moved to Oregon, I struggled to find a car repair shop I could trust for my Nissan Maxima which continued to leak oil from some unknown place. After taking it to two seperate repair shops and spending a small fortune, my car was still leaking oil! At this point, I had given up on the idea of having a clean garage floor and determined that I would just monitor the oil level in my car.

After two y... view moreears of this, I came across Canyon Auto Repair who properly diagnosed and resolved the leak, for a relatively low price, compared to the previous price gouging shops I had visited before. They even gave me a loner car to use while mine was being fixed!!! It wasn`t easy to win my business or loyalty becuase every other shop touted that they knew what they were doing as well, but Lee and his crew made me a believer. This shop has since been a staple for my automotive needs for over 7 years.

Very knowledgeable

Rick is very good. I have 2007 BMW 330xi, the heater not working. Brought it to Canyon Auto Repair and talked to Rick, after diagnostic they found that my heater core are plug up. I had been to several shops but no ones can find out what the problem was. I am really impress with these guys at Canyon Auto Repair especially Rick. I got my car fixed and I have heat now. Thanks Rick and Canyon Auto repair, you are ROCK

A repeat cust. w/a repeatedly awful experience..BEWARE!!!

First of all I have never written a bad review because I do not believe in bashing someone`s name because everyone including companies make mistakes. I also gave Lee multiple chances to make this right and after being let down all 3 times I brought my car there I am done giving him chances to redeem himself.. I am not going to mention my car except it is a newer vehicle or give too many specifics as I do not wan... view moret Lee to call me. I have given him too much hard earned money and was taken advantage of the whole time. I was told that the problems with my vehicle were severe each time and what seemed like something little turned into a ticket worth hundreds yet it seemed as though the problems got worse each time I brought it in and the bill got bigger and bigger. I am a single mom and and the worse thing is to think you may get stranded so I trusted them an fixed whatever they told me was wrong, except then after talking to another customer who had the same experiences as me, I went for a second opinion to the dealership in which I purchased the car. Not only did I find out that what Canyon Auto was trying to charge me over $500 for was only a $75 problem but they also could tell that some awful work had been done in the past...I had only ever taken it to Lee since purchased new and always got regular servicing. The dealership showed me the terrible work and sub-standard parts Canyon Auto repair had used. I tried to give Lee a chance to make it right but he only tried to make me feel as though I was the one who had wronged him by going to another shop. I should of had a second opinion from the start, that is my fault for for trusting Canyon Auto. I would have been a lifelong customer instead I am out way over $1000 and have a car that has been compromised by bad workmanship. I was taken advantaged of, please don`t make the same mistake by going to this shop.

The Best in the Business

I have used Canyon Auto repair for all of my vehicles. Lee and his crew are truthfull and understand their costomers. It is hard to find auto repair locations that do not try and take advantage of you. Canyon Auto always puts the needs of the costomer first.

Do not hesitate to trust Lee and his mechanics with your automobile. He makes sure that you are fully taken care of without any extras tacked on. Make thi... view mores establishment your go to place for all of your auto needs.

The Best Mechanic I Know

I currently have 3 vehicles all of which I bought new. Over the years Lee has helped me keep these and 2 previous ones in tip top shape and always with friendly fair service. Recently I had trouble with my boat trailer and Lee as always was able to put everything in order. Simply put - he is the Best All Around Mechanic I`ve ever known. I`m retired military with 10 of those years served in transportation so I`ve know... view more quite a few mechanics. If you need a mechanic this is the place to go.

Awsome service

I have been taking my cars to Canyon Auto for over 10 years. Their prices are great, there staff is knowlegable and the way they treat there customers is above board all the way. If you need your car fixed for whatever reason you can bring it here and expect good, and more importantly, honest service.

Got the job done and was a great experience

These guys, mainly Lee, diagnosed and fixed my 2001 VW Jetta so it could pass the emissions test and it passed as soon as the drive cycle was finished following the repairs made. My check engine light was on for a very long time and these guys knew exactly what to do to fix it. They are absolutely honest and nice people. Lee went out of his way to make me feel comfortable about the work they were going to do and h... view moree even provided the proper drive cycle for my car which is very hard to find. Though, the drive cycle was tough to do, actually it was basically impossible. But after about 2 weeks of normal to heavy driving, the cycle was complete and the emissions people were satisfied, and so was I. I just moved to Oregon and I will be going here from now on. The chains like Midas and Jiffy Lube may be very slightly cheaper ($30 oil change here, $20 at Midas or Jiffy Lube), but they just don`t have the expertise like these guy do, in my experience anyway. Thanks Lee and Canyon Auto!!!
