Ken Fisher Auto & Truck Repair Inc

I would call this a dream mechanic--a brother and sister business (with their father Ken's name) where both siblings are great people, just chatting with them at the shop is a joy. They explain the work very clearly and do it very competently. They are also very accommodating to customer needs. A couple of examples: when my 1986 Toyota pickup needed a new engine, they had to order it and wait for it to arrive. I was going to be abroad when it was ecpected to come and I told them this and they said no problem, we'll waive the vehicle storage fee until you get back. The second time was when I decided to sell this truck. Tony was very helpful in this process. In addition, when the truck needed a new starter just on the day an offer came in, he squeezed it in and replaced the starter immediately without an appointment so I wouldn't miss out on this chance to sell it. I recomment this mechanic very enthusiastically.

Old SUV belonging to old lady, who took a chance on 'the place closest to me'. What a pleasure to get honest straight talk from Tony, the owner. Instead of chasing unnecessary repairs, he did a through inspection and gave me honest advice. I'm reassured and would definitely recommend this business.

A friend of mine dropped my 2001 Toyota Land Cruiser off at Ken Fischer after hours as they have a convenient key drop-box and as I was out of the country. The vehicle was having starting issues that I narrowed down to either the starter or starter connections. The shop diagnosed it as the starter and called to inform me of the issue and provide a quote. I asked them to email me the quote, which they did, and I told them I would have to sleep on it (as the starter for this vehicle is in the valley of the engine under the intake manifold – lots of labor in the pricing). I called back the next day to verbally confirm that I would like them to go ahead and do what was on the quote and that I knew that a knock sensor was faulty and confirmed that I agree to the replacement of the knock sensor if needed. A few days later, when I was back in the country, I stopped by the shop to drop off a remote start to see if they would be able to install it and, if so, provide me with another quote. Tony and I discussed what else the vehicle needed (a couple fuel injectors and injector seals for which he sent me a quote), and I left under the assumption that I would receive a different quote for the

I had an excellent first experience. We moved into the area last year and Ken Fisher was highly recommended by our neighbors. It is always nice to support a family run business that takes care of its community. Good communication throughout the repair process and diagnosed some additional last minute requests with no pressure. Will definitely be back!

Ok, I'm a little crazy about maintaining my auto records, and my history with Ken Fisher Auto Repair goes back two decades. My first visit to Ken Fisher, I stopped by randomly because my car was making a random rattling noise. Turns out, the heat shield had captured some small rocks and they were rattling against the exhaust system. I was charged nothing; it was just removing the heat shield to let the rocks out, but they certainly could have charged me for their time and work anyway. This experience built my confidence with them - they weren't the kind of shop that would take advantage - so I was happy to take my car back for repairs in June of 1998 before I headed halfway across the country for college. Across several states, I never found another auto shop that I felt as good about taking my car to (there might be one or two that came close, though). It took most of the last two decades before I moved back to Corvallis, but Ken Fisher Auto Repair was by far my first choice for working on my car (no, not the same one, but still a Honda Civic). I wholeheartedly recommend them.
