Professional courteous friendlys service. I didnt shop around for my brake job so I ended up paying a little bit more, quite a bit more than Les Schwab would it charge me I found out later. But my brakes work great

These guys are great and provide a good experience from start to finish. Mo solved an issue with my 2015 Corvette that had a previous shop stumped and got it fixed and ready to go in no time. It says a lot that the shop is also immaculate inside, these guys take pride in their work and get the job done right! Highly recommend TNA to anyone needing work done on their car and will refer my friends over.

Tareeq is an absolutely LOVELY human being and he and the other folks there provide great service at a great value. This business is fantastic at keeping older cars on the road without trying to upsell you and they’re great about checking in every step of the way before completing repairs. Also appreciate that their time estimates are usually really accurate because I have a disability so it’s super inconvenient when I can’t plan around my vehicle being ready. LOVE these folks. Highly recommended!

Overall, TNA is a solid shop for your everyday l, or more complex car needs. They’ve revived three different vehicles for me including one replacement of a timing belt awhile back. Everyone at TNA seems to have pretty good experience as well as knowledge. Cheers to TNA!

These guys are straight up. I was on a long road trip from New York and they took care of some concerns I had with my car quickly and efficiently. They could have very easily taken advantage of me but they didn’t and charged a very fair price for the repairs that were necessary. The shop and even the bathroom were very clean which I thought was very professional. Top notch pros.

These guys are liars. They charged me $838 to change sparks plugs, a distributor cap and put in a rebuilt alternator. I was in a drive thru 15 minutes after leaving their shop when the alternator went out and left me totally blocking the drive-thru. The alternator actually hadnt even been changed but charged up enough to drive and break down again. The alternator was the reason I brought my car to them in the first place but they were eager to do unnecessary things to my car and not actually fix what was wrong. I would NOT recommend this shop at all.

TNA is the cleanest auto repair shop youll ever set foot in. The garage area is as clean as the front office, and that speaks volumes about their attention to detail and their care for the work environment. It also makes it easy and safe to take customers into the work area to explain aspects of the repair work. My brake job took longer than they anticipated—the estimated completion time changed twice—but my car was cleaned inside and out when I picked it up, which was a lovely touch. And it seems they adjusted the tension on my parking brake at no extra charge. I highly recommend TNA Auto Repair.

They screwed up an oil change twice. I went in for just an oil change, and they way, way overfilled the oil to a dangerous level. I did not check the oil level before I left as I trusted them to be able to handle an oil change (NOTE TO SELF & EVERYONE: Always check your oil level after an oil change before leaving anywhere). So I went back and they agreed that the oil level was too high and drained the oil. Again I trusted them to handle that, but when I got back the oil level was way below low, so I had to go out and put in a full quart. That’s the short version.The slightly longer version was that for some reason my [CHECK ENGINE] light turned on after I had the oil change, and then I checked the oil and saw that the oil was way overfilled by at least a quart. So when I went back for the oil drain I asked them about the [CHECK ENGINE] light. A mechanic hooked up a diagnostic device to my car, and said that he was not getting a reading, and there must be some short of short in my car’s system that would need to be fixed. I then went and sat in the waiting room.Another mechanic came out, and I guess he thought that I had overfilled the oil, and he told me that the oil was at a dangerous level that could cause serious damage to the engine, and it was good that I was having it drained. I asked him what he thought about the diagnostic device not working, and what I would need to have done to my car to fix the “electrical short”. He told me that the diagnostic device the other mechanic used doesn’t work half the time, so he used one that worked. Although the second mechanic was friendly and helpful, and the first one was less so, yet even though he was friendly and bother to use diagnostic device that worked he the over drained my car by a quart, and didn’t bother to check.I’m not exaggerating or being picky- these guys badly screwed up an oil change twice, and did not bother to check either time. I am glad the [CHECK ENGINE] light turned on because I could have destroyed my car’s engine had I just assumed that the oil had been changed correctly.There are a lot of bad reviews of TNA and I feel they are warranted. I had gotten to the point where I did not trust them with anything major, and after they botched an oil change twice I won’t be back. A lazy mechanic doing sloppy work can cause serious damage to your car. Also they charge $29 for the oil change, and don’t bother to check fluid levels or do anything else.This was a minor incident- checkout the other reviews for people who have had major problems.

I am a long-time customer. Tareq has been helpful, knowledgeable, service-oriented and honest to a fault. He has refused my money on numerous occasions when he has helped me, despite my insistence on paying. I have taken my car to him in urgent and routine situations and have been very happy with the service he provides. My car runs beautifully. He provides me with clear and helpful explanations. He is unfailingly kind and gentlemanly. I am so grateful that I discovered him.

My family has had I have had two great experiences at TNA auto. I have greatly appreciated their service. Reasonable appointments available. Good communication during appointment. I had them fix a reoccurring issue and it was good for about a month and then it started happening again. It was not the part they had services but they fixed it free of charge since it was three times fixing it. I really appreciated it after having so many frustrations with my vehicle. I look forward to having my vehicle serviced here again.

Ive been loyal to TNA for over 10 years. They do great work, have competent technicians, and a great business owner in Tareq. He started this business on the best formula for retaining customers - making sound evaluations and getting the work completed accurately and on time. I wouldnt willingly take my car to any other shop in Portland.

I have taken both my truck and car to TNA and will continue to do so because they not only save me money and time (got both vehicles back the same day I dropped each off) Tareeq and Frank took the time to explain exactly what repairs were done. I had unpleasant experiences with both ford and nissan dealership repair shops in the past that cost me a lot of money and was extremely thankful that I came to TNA.

Review №21

I took my car there and they took 2 hours to do diagnostics. They did call and get my permission for the second hour. They wrote up an estimate and I had a mechanic from another shop review it and they said TNA was overcharging for the parts. I decided to take it to another shop. When that shop checked it out they said it didnt even need the coils that TNA was going to replace. They were honest that the car is on its last legs. I feel a little duped by TNA :(I will say they were prompt and communicative about getting to my car, communicating with me, emailing me the estimate. But I wont be going back here.

I had the serpentine drive belts replaced on my 1997 Toyota Tacoma at TNA Automotive. The owner was very respectful, did prompt, effective, and fair priced work ($10 less then my other 3 bids). They staff even stayed late to make sure that my Truck was up and running before work the following morning. If you need a good Mechanic in NE Portland, these guys do a great job at a great price.

Took my car in because it was a convenient location. Was told I had to replace my tie rods and was quoted 1600 plus dollars to fix this and other problems. Took my car to an honest mechanic and they found a bulge in my tire that was causing the knocking. TNA charged me 108 dollars to lie to me (also they misspelled the word tire on their report) and the other place charged me 50 dollars and my car was fixed the next day. Never again. Ever.

TNA Auto repair was strongly recommended to me by a neighbor several years ago. Ive been coming here ever since. The mechanics are thorough, patient, and fair and are willing to explain in detail what is going on with your vehicle. Frank and Tarak are both very friendly and Ive never been to a shop where my car comes back with more things fixed than I had brought it in for! This has happened two times here: once bringing it in for a repair to the evap system and when they returned it my cruise control which hadnt worked in years was functioning. The other time I brought it in, it was for a new alternator. Id been having trouble with the speakers cutting out and when the car was returned to me they worked perfectly again. Id never mentioned anything about these issues to the mechanics! Very pleased with this shop!!

Tariq, the owner a really good man. Honest, and will listen. Huge in todays world. Great service, very knowledgeable. Runs a really Clean shop, in more ways than one. I have recommended his shop to family and friends and he works on my two Subarus, regularly. I wont go anywhere else.

Their rates may not have been the cheapest but were certainly less than dealership quotes. My repair was done quickly and correctly. When I picked my car up they had detail cleaned both interior and exterior at no charge. that was a nice surprise.

This was one of the best car maintenance/work experiences that Ive had since moving to Oregon. I took my Subaru WRX here after getting it looked at at a different shop. Im so glad I got a second opinion. TNA is the best! Frank was so helpful in working with the warranty company and getting things taken care of for me. It was nice to feel like I wasnt being taken advantage of and to be talked to like a human being. Tareq even took me back into the shop (cleanest Ive ever seen) and showed me what was fixed and replaced so I knew. They were so easy to work with and did such an amazing job. My car runs like a dream. I will definitely be taking my Subie here going forward and will definitely be recommending these guys to everyone I know. Thanks TNA for being so amazingly awesome to a lady in need!

Tl:dr- brought in a ’95 Previa to these guys that wouldn’t start and they tried to get us to spend ~$1,000. Realizing they were untrustworthy we bought a fuel filter for $17.99, replaced it, and the van runs great.Let me preface this by saying that I have never written a negative review about any company and don’t go out of my way to do anything to negatively impact small businesses. However, I would like to use my experience at TNA as a warning to potential customers who are looking for an honest mechanic. These folks are pretty shady.My dad moved recently and gave a 1995 Toyota Previa to my partner and me. We drove it from San Francisco up to Portland in it seamlessly at the end of November. We were traveling for the month of December and left it in the driveway, when we got back, it didn’t start. We tried to jump it, nothing, so we got it towed to TNA to see if they could get it started up. They called us back the following day and informed us that it needed a throttle body clean, a temperature sensor, fuel filter, and the fuel injectors cleaned, “essentially a tune-up,” and then told us that it would be $969. $969!We talked about it and my partner called them back the next day and asked them if they could address the specific problem just to get it running and we could maybe do the rest later, a grand for a twenty year old van didn’t seem like a realistic price. They countered by saying that it was “sort of a mix of everything” but that if they avoided the throttle body clean the cost would be down to $728. $728! My partner said we would have to get it towed home at that price because was probably technically a total. Get this, the mechanic responded by saying, “No, I checked, and these are going for around $3,000.” Why was the mechanic checking the price of the car before giving us a quote for labor?In any case, we decided to get it towed back home and then the mechanic offered us one last sweet deal, saying that we could likely do a good amount of the repairs over the next six months to year and that we should actually only have to get the fuel filter and temperature sensor replaced, and throttle body cleaned in order to get it started. They let us know that this was a service that they would gladly provide for only $379. $379!At this point, through the knowledge that our support system has of cars, we were informed that a fuel filter might have been screwed up leaving the van for so long with relatively little fuel in the tank. We were also very sick of the inane numbers being given to us by TNA. We got the van towed home and my partner bought a fuel filter at O’Reilly’s for $17.99 and changed it out on Saturday morning. The van started fine and runs like a top.

I recommend all my friends and family to avail themselves of TNA Auto Repair. Tareq loves cars. Look at the photos of how clean his shop is.In my experience Tareq is honest and honorable. The folks he hires all seem to reflect his character. Try him out. My brother has been with Tareq for ten years. I have been assisted by TNA for four years.

They did simple work but charged totally unreasonable. They just cleaned throat body, which cost me $480. I trusted them at the beginning, so I just left my car there. Then they told me they cleaned twice, which I would not know. They just cleaned the throat body and charged me ridiculous price. To sum up, choose someone else.
