I found a used shop rag in the engine bay of my car after it was serviced by this shop. Such carelessness does not inspire confidence in the quality of work done. read more

Excellent experience with the AAMCO in Aloha! My first time into this shop. I came across it after a conversation with the owner, Jeff, and I plan to return in the future. As a heads-up, the shop was bustling right after a local storm. They were managing a plethora of customers in parallel. Joseph met me at the counter. The AAMCO team performed a diagnostic and provided multiple different options to address the issue at hand -- a subtle leak near the oil pan seal. The team also proposed several options to tackle a couple secondary issues as well, one of which has been giving us trouble & been rather elusive for about a year. The repair estimates were clearly identified and segregated across a range in costs based on what I chose to do. Joseph did an excellent job addressing all my questions. He also explained the pros & cons of each option well. The information made my decision process easy. Fortunately, my car was in the shop the next day. The repairs took less time than anticipated, and the final costs came in below the repair estimates. Naturally, a pleasant surprise! I'm also pleased to note that about 3 weeks later (i.e. time of this review 3/29), the elusive secondary issue remains resolved. Grateful for the help from the AAMCO Aloha Team & pleased with the result. read more

The AAMCO in Aloha, OR has been there for years, but I just recently took my car there for the first time several weeks ago. They're friendly and get the work done well. Also, they're honest. Recently, my car had shown all transmission indicator lights on the dashboard (it's an automatic), so I was concerned about a transmission issue. The engine also showed an error code about a manifold air sensor, which I heard can affect other systems (including the transmission). They replaced the sensor causing the issue and my car no longer had the transmission issue or error code. However, within a couple days, my car started showing the Check Engine light and had error codes for a couple other air sensors. I wanted to get it fixed, especially since my car was soon due for emissions testing to get new license plate tags. They said there were multiple part numbers for the two air sensors, and they said they could get one to work but the other would still have an error code. My car was there for a little over 2 weeks while they tried different combinations of sensors to find a couple that worked without error codes. And they didn't even charge me for all that, since it was apparently related to the previous service. My car's Check Engine light came on a couple days after I got it back from the 2nd repair. So, I made an appointment to take it back to AAMCO, and when I got there to drop off the car, the person at AAMCO said he was thinking about it, and after all their effort trying to fix the air sensor issue previously, he said they probably couldn't do anything more and my best bet would probably be to take it to the dealership's service, as they'd probably know more than they do. He even suggested giving me a refund for the original work I came in for in the first place, as he said he wasn't able to repair all the things. I felt like I didn't want a refund, since the transmission issue seemed to be fixed. But I plan to take my car to the dealership to see what they can do. I feel like AAMCO Aloha is a good and honest shop. read more

Highly Recommended. Great honest service. I thought something was wrong with the clunk my transmission made, turns out it's a bracket for something else. Great honest service. read more

After two days of trying to sort out this mess, we finally got somewhere. I went to the shop to get the copy of the work order my partner signed. I was right, it was an estimate. Labor $1,886, parts $761.33, total $2,697.33. So far so good. I asked again what the $1,200 extra was all about and was told a new torque converter cost $1,100. Ah! FINALLY it all made sense. When they mentioned the car needed a new torque, I thought to myself, okay, that's around $200 in parts, bringing the total to $2,900, which was what they said we could expect. What they didn't mention, the cause of all confusion, was that they were charging us TWICE for the same labor! They kept on insisting the $2,690 we had agreed to was for labor only (total bogus) and no matter how many times I tried to ask them to clarify, they kept on giving me the runaround. It is true that a new torque converter costs $1,100 because it's labor intensive as you need to remove the transmission. But when the transmission has ALREADY been removed and we have ALREADY paid $950 for the work, why would they charge us another $900 for the same work? This is why people hate going to the mechanics. You have to watch them like a hawk or they'll rip you off. We were told the owner was giving us a $1000 discount to make us happy and that they weren't going to make any money from fixing our car ($1,900 in labor doesn't make them any money??). The "discount" was really all about removing the unnecessary labor charge. The total charge (after all the drama) came to $200 over the given estimate, which is the price of a new torque (without the labor). What makes this so sad is that the only thing they had to say was, "Hey, we made a mistake by adding the labor too and not just the part," and everything would have been ok. But instead, they kept on giving us the runaround all over again, trying to excuse themselves instead of admitting to having made a mistake. It seems they just keep on thinking we're idiots and there's really nothing we can do about that - other than never ever using their services again. I just hope they do a good job fixing the car, because the very thought of having to bring our car back to this place makes us sick. EDIT: This afternoon, after talking to a friend of mine, I began to think that maybe Jospeh at AAMCO Aloha and Jim Smith, the regional manager for the NW, were right all along. Maybe it IS AAMCO's policy to double dip when it comes to charging for labor and the owner was doing us a favor. Maybe they DO charge for labor twice as a routine. That's the only explanation I can come up with for this whole debacle, other than utter and complete incompetence of their staff, which means NO ONE should entrust their vehicles to this company as they don't know what they are doing and their mistakes will cost you a lot of money (in the thousands!). Unless, of course, you're willing to spend days fighting them, getting a massive headache as a result. For our part, we'll never trust this company again. Whether they are dishonest or incompetent doesn't really matter. Our time matters more to us and they've wasted enough. My final question is: where has the owner been all this time? Invisible like the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain, he clearly doesn't care about his own business. And that, my friends, explains why things went the way they did. read more

I have been looking around for a place to do a transmission flush and came across this place! Spoke to Mike on the phone and he got me in on a busy day last minute. Very friendly! Also the best price in the area! Even beat jiffy lubes price. I will definitely go back! read more

Took my 2006 Nissan Xterra because of a factory defect that involves the transmission fluid mixing with the radiator fluid.Took it to AAMCO in Beaverton, Oregon to get it rebuild. About 3 months after the AAMCO warranty had elapsed the transmission goes bad. Once a transmission had been rebuilt, it should last for a very long time. They would not work with me and wanted to charge me another 4-5k dollars to get it "rebuild" again. After they "rebuilt" the transmission, they said that that the connection between the transmission and radiator is completely separate and should be just fine. I totally got ripped off! I would stay away from this company, at least the one in the Beaverton, Oregon. I never write negative reviews, but this one deserves it so it doesn't happen to anyone else. read more

This particular location should be ashamed of the way their employees choose to treat potential customers as I received worst customer service from Joe at the front desk! He wanted to charge me $950 just to "open up the tranny and tell me what's wrong." I advised I was unable to pay for the services and asked that he button up my vehicle as I found another location willing to help me for a lot cheaper and without financing; He laughed and called us liars followed by a barrage of cheap degradation and slander towards other companies. I went to have my car towed from this location to the next and found that, not only was I now having electrical problems that I didn't have before, but this shop was so careless, my car had also been backed into the wall!! YES! Seriously. Joe even refused to give us their insurance information! Outstanding isn't it? Fast forward to the new shop who has completely gone above and beyond for me; After a lot of work and some time later, the tech I worked with had confirmed the starter, alternator, the gear linkage and fuses were all disconnected. There is absolutely no reason why any of this should've been in the condition is was other than the AAMCO employees intentionally disconnecting it all in an attempt to make it worse. Needless to say, I will never again attempt to conduct any business with this company and will continue to advise everyone else to do the same. Anyone who would like to have information to the shop I had my car towed to after this mess, I would be happy to provide it to you! BTW - UP YOURS AAMCO!! read more

First visit here, using a living social deal and the staff was wonderful. Eric is very accommodating and professional. I will certainly come back here. read more

I went to this Aamco in Aloha on Shaw st yesterday with a check engine light & my D flashing every now & then. Mike was very genuinely friendly & very helpful. They diagnosed & fixed my car issues quickly & had me back on the road all within the same day without it costing me a arm, leg & my first born lol. I will definitely go back when I am in need of car work, be it minor or major. Thank you Mike & staff for doing a great job & caring about your customers. In this world these days that is truly hard to find. read more

Fantastic first impression, expectations set correctly with what might be best and worst case scenario, quick service and a smile. I smiled because the repair was best case scenario, thank goodness! I can't tell you where to go but I had a great experience and I will be back here if I have further issues. read more

AAMCO Transmissions & Total Car Care - I need to trust my vehicle that's why I choose AAMCO. - Auto Repair Near Me - Beaverton, Oregon

So happy to have found this place. Incredibly trustworthy shop. They are not out to get your money. They are realistic with you and help you see what all your options are. Absolutely amazing customer service. read more

I recommend that no one use this Aamco location to service their vehicle. My time spent here was without question the worst possible customer service experience I've ever had. The personnel were unaccommodating, unprofessional, and largely incompetent. Not only was I without my car for two whole days for what was quoted as a "two hour job," I had to take the car back because the initial work was faulty. Needless to say I took my business to a trusted mechanic after that where they fixed the shoddy work done by the people at this Aamco. Beyond the poor mechanical work I was also berated by the front desk worker in person and over the phone. Please save yourself the time and money by going anywhere but here. read more

I think the store is great for transmission repair and that is all I know them to be good at... If you allow them to touch anything other than transmission.. Then you may very have yourself to be blamed.. I have had my several shares of them.. Their cup became full for me when I stopped by to troubleshoot why my windshield wiper would not work.. And I was quoted $250.00 just to find the fault... It cost me $20 and under 30 min to find the issue and replace the fuse just less than 2 miles down the road from them... read more

This was my first visit there, and the service was personable and quick (indeed: the customer service guy was absolutely exceptional - seriously). Very happy with the result (also note: I am possibly a picky customer because I've been to other repair places in the area, and I tend to be unsatisfied with the results) read more

This has been my number one stop for auto repairs, Paul at the front desk has always been very helpful making sure I can be safe on the road. I highly recommend this location they are fast and do all repairs right the first time. This is all coming from someone who's had there transmission, cv joint, all 4 brakes, alternator, a wheel hub and bearing done here. All those repairs and not a single problem from them. If you're looking for fair service come here! read more

I decided to drive up to the Portland area from California to visit my family and friends and on the drive up my 06 Ford Explorer made a weird clunking noise and my car wouldn't go past 65mph. I figured that my transmission or engine was having problems so I was referred to AAMCO in Aloha by a close family friend who takes all their vehicles there for any service. So I thought I'd give them a shot thinking how great can they be? Anyways I called to make an appointment and Paul the owner or Manager there greeted me warmly over the phone. He explained that they would perform a free Multi Inspection on my car and it would determine what it would take to fix my car. I went in the next morning and was greeted by Paul who was extremely friendly and very descriptive of what they would need to do in their inspection. Paul even offered to drive me back to my cousins house just so that I wouldn't have to walk back. So I get a call a few hours later and he explained what they found with my car and that I would need a new transmission. FML. The thing that surprised me next was that he gave me so many options to decide from whether it was a new, rebuilt, or used transmission to fit my budget. Fortunately for me this AAMCO in particular has a financing option that allowed me to pay it off interest free for a whole year. So I decided to get a new transmission and he had my car ready within 3 days. I can't thank Paul and his crew over at AAMCO for their amazing work and the great "feel at home" customer service" I just wish this AAMCO was local to me. read more

We started taking our cars there about two years ago. My 04 Honda Accord was leaking oil and I had them take a look at it. I got an oil change done and they replaced a seal up on top of the engine. When I asked about whether or not that should take care of it over the phone I was told that it should. When I picked up the car they said there was no leak. After driving for about an hour, I parked the car and when I came out and backed out of the driveway, there was a big oil leak still. I called Mike and told him what was going on, he said to bring it back to them in the morning so they could look. The next day they replaced the lower seal, front and rear seals....ALL AT NO CHARGE to make it right. They did have to keep it an extra day which I was bummed about but in the end, no more leaks, and now a lifetime customer. Jeff is a phenomenal owner, honest, hard working and always wanting to make it right for you. There is no better place to take your car. read more

My third visit to this shop... each time for oil change. This time, asked for a brake check too. Aamco called me a couple hours later and said I needed front brakes - one side was "down to the wear indicators." This morning, I pulled the front brakes and discovered that the pads on both sides were nearly new!! There are thousands and thousands of miles left on all the pads... and a long ways from the wear indicators. Makes me sad - I'm always wanting to find a shop that I can count on, but this simply perpetuates the stereotype of shops who push unneeded repairs on customers. I had hoped for better... read more

Absolute worst place to take your vehicle to. If you are not savvy they will rip you off with a smile on their face. They did initial inspection and discovered 2 main issues. Paul then advised that he would like to do another diagnostic for $330 to verify these issues but that would be waived if I did the repairs. Several hours later he contacts me to tell me that the diagnostic confirmed previous codes and the repairs would cost me about $800. I asked how much the parts cost versus how much for labor. He quoted me $400 for the first part and $300 for the second one. My labor would be about $140 he says. So I went to check the parts myself and turns out the first one is $189 and the second one is $150 at O'Reiley. Of course I call Paul back and ask him what the deal is. I understand having to mark up parts a little, but not THIS MUCH! Paul then tells me he has to make money somehow. Really??? He then tries to argue that when I go to a restaurant to have a steak dinner, I don't pay for what it actually cost, I pay for service. This is the most ridiculous argument I have ever heard. So obviously I took my car back and am disputing the $330 diagnostic job that revealed nothing but the initial results that should have been covered by their $100 inspection. Oh and FYI... I took my car next door and they did not even find same issues to be wrong with the car. read more

They are knowledgeable and I feel my car is always safe with them. Not only do they do what you ask, but they take the initiative to see if something needs to be addressed, but don't do any extra work without asking first. Nice to have a place you can trust. read more

Great customer service. Although I don't know if they convinced me into getting some elements fixed that were special order and not necessarily causing any issues. As they stated they were causing electrical malfunctions that were not causing my car to drive any different...will probably take more time to research next time. read more

Friendly and fast service: HOWEVER... Took my car in to only get the trans fluid changed. Was told my battery was bad, suspension had problems and leaking valve cover gaskets upon "inspection". Afterwards I took my car to the place I bought the battery and they checked it all out and said it was perfectly fine. I also had ALL new suspension parts installed less than a year ago as well. I can only hope they changed my trans fluid and didn't do anything else to my car as I DO NOT TRUST them to do anything else. read more

I couldn't be happier with the service I've received consistently at AAMCO. Paul is an absolute pleasure to work with! He is so friendly and professional and helps take the sting out of the inconvenience of unexpected auto repairs. I have had AAMCO service my water pump/thermostat/radiator hose and also my clutch and freeze plug. We initially discovered AAMCO when my boyfriend needed his transmission serviced and have kept coming back because of the quality and efficiency of their work. But mostly because Paul is a badass. read more

Had my 01 Odyssey Transmission rebuilt at 80K, All went well and got a Warranty with disappearing deductible over 10 years. 4 years later at 160K, had to have tranny rebuilt again. Paid $750 and have very hard shift into 2nd gear, also had a leak of transmission fluid(Obviously ATF, it was red) but they said now my rack & pinion was leaking fluid and it NEVER leaked before they touched it, but they could fix for ~$1400. What the Heck happened to this shop. It has gone DOWNHILL! I picked it up, drove it home and parked it. I have called a couple of the owners Aamco shops(he owns 5 of them in the NW), but JEFF won't return my calls! Now working with BBB and disputing charges of the $750. I can't drive it with it shifting hard into 2nd gear. Too bad this shop went to crap, I originally thought they were honest on the 1st rebuild....guess not on the 2nd..... read more

do not take your car here!!! they are bullies if you decide that you do not want to get your car fixed there! they are currently holding my car hostage and refuse to correct the situation! if i could give negative stars i would! do not go here! you will have better luck with a random person from craigslist fixing your transmission! read more
